A rich, savory aroma wafted from the basin.
The scent was intense, mingled with the fragrance of minced garlic and a faint hint of Brandy.
This was the lingering aroma of the Brandy; unexpectedly, it created such a wonderful fragrance when mixed into the dish.
Xie Baomin said, "Everyone, try this and see how it tastes. If anyone hasn’t learned it, I’ll make it again later so you can watch."
At that mont, Su Peipei hadn’t arrived yet. He was doing this round purely to demonstrate the stone cooking technique to Lin Xu.
Nobody stood on ceremony. They all picked up their chopsticks and started eating the Chrysanthemum from the basin.
The Chrysanthemum was fragrant and savory, and quite hot; you could easily burn yourself if you weren’t careful.
The leaves were soft and tender, carrying the rich aroma of garlic and oil, while the stems were crisp, tender, and refreshing, revealing a hint of sweetness when eaten.
The umami, fragrance, saltiness, and garlic flavor... these tastes mingled with the tender Chrysanthemum, making it simply irresistible.
I had always thought Boiled Chinese Broccoli was one of the most appetizing vegetable dishes, but compared to this garlic-laden Chrysanthemum, even Boiled Chinese Broccoli had to concede defeat.
This Stone Cooked Chrysanthemum dish seed tailor-made as a perfect rice accompanint for those who don’t like at.
It was novel, delicious, and a perfect accompanint to rice.
"Delicious, so delicious!"
"Boss, when are we introducing this new dish in the restaurant?"
Introducing it as a new dish was certainly possible, even right away. However, Lin Xu was busy making fried noodles for the next couple of days and couldn’t attend to the Chrysanthemum. Therefore, this dish had to be postponed.
However, continuing like this definitely wasn’t a long-term solution.
It was ti for another round of training sessions to pass on the dishes he knew, letting the staff help share the workload.
Yes, a qualified boss must know how to be a hands-off manager.
It was almost eleven o’clock now.
Everyone had finished admiring the Stone Cooked Chrysanthemum and hurried outside to continue their al, lest custors arrive early and they lose their own alti.
Inside the kitchen.
After everyone had left, Xie Baomin pulled Lin Xu aside and whispered, "Junior Brother, could you ask Old Huang for so more Moringa Seeds for when you get a chance?"
Damn... that was so much! It’s only been a few days, how is it all gone already?
Xie Baomin said with exasperation, "The stash from last ti was all taken by my brother-in-law. He’s so literal-minded. As soon as I said I didn’t need them, he shoved them all into his bag. Even when I hinted they were for a friend, he didn’t take them out... I always say, the Mid-Autumn Festival is not the ti to host relatives at ho..."
Lin Xu chuckled, not expecting his Senior Brother to have had such an experience.
After a mont, he said, "Old Huang ntioned last ti that he bought so Maca. I’ll ask for so for you then."
Sigh, Old Huang will probably misunderstand again.
But for his Senior Brother’s sake, this was the only way... How did he end up with such a literal-minded brother-in-law?
While the two martial brothers were chatting, outside the store, Su Peipei and a man in a tracksuit approached from the direction of Haidian Middle School.
This man bore so resemblance to Su Peipei, though he looked younger.
Judging by his tracksuit, he was probably a PE teacher.
"Sis, is this the restaurant run by my brother-in-law’s Junior Brother? It’s quite grand!"
"Be polite when you et Junior Brother Lin later. He’s a big boss, and his father-in-law is a billionaire."
"Don’t worry, Sis. I, Da Chun, am not an idiot..."

I wrote about the Stone Cooked Chrysanthemum, a must-order dish every ti I visit a restaurant... I caught a bit of a cold from the air conditioning today, and around 7 PM, my head felt like it was about to explode. I had written two thousand words by then and thought about just updating and going to sleep. But then I rembered I still needed to buy cat food and pay off my credit card, so I took an Ibuprofen and struggled to get up... This Chapter is 5,895 words. Requesting Monthly Tickets, brothers!
