Chapter 764: Christmas Eve (Part 2)
Igo's food transport truck was parked near the Xia store, attracting a lot of onlookers.
The staff in black moved boxes of sealed things, and these boxes were piled at the entrance of the shop, building like a small hill, with an amazing scale.
After Xia Yu signed the sign and waved his hand to say goodbye to the ingredient cart, Zhu Qing and Yuchuan sisters surrounded him at the same time and stared at him.
"What are you buying so many at once?"
Zhu Qing asked.
"Is this a must-have item for making Christmas food and small foods? Is this a large amount? I'm afraid it's not enough."
Xia Yu frowned and let go.
In fact, when he discussed the preparations for the Christmas food festival in the Shopping Street with Ruiyama Eitsu, he had thought in his heart. To put it bluntly, as the soul pillar of the Shopping Street, how should Xia’s shop contribute to the food festival?
Isn’t the idea of returning to the store managers to launch a food festival just to make the shopping streets that have just gotten on track and are in a messy culture that belongs to the region?
Therefore, what Xia’s shop needs to do is to show it enough to attract attention, be popular enough for customers and be praised. One step further is a Christmas snack that impresses guests.
Note that it is a snack!
After all, it is not a Western country. Christmas dinners are not necessary for East Asians. Besides, do you still have Italian meals when you go out for Christmas Eve? Snacks are convenient and delicious, and are understood as street food, and there is no problem with street stall food!
But snacks cannot be made randomly, so they must be consistent with the Christmas atmosphere.
For example, the gingerbread and gummy candy of the Yuchuan sisters are all small snacks commonly found in Western Christmas markets. For example, Zhu Qing’s apple candy has a cultural connotation.
So Xia Yu got up this morning and saw that today was Christmas Eve on the 24th. When she was washing, brushing her teeth and looking in the mirror, she finalized her recipe-
Christmas red wine!
Looking at Xia Yu Kaifeng's box and taking out bottles of red wine, Zhu Qing and Yuchuan sisters looked at each other.
"Boss Xia is going to make hot red wine!"
Tamakawa Misa pointed her lips and thought: "Traditional Christmas hot red wine, also known as spice wine, is usually the most popular and most popular hot drink at the Christmas market. Last year, a food media conducted statistics. It is said that the spice wine sold in Christmas markets in Western countries can circle the earth together!"
“Spicy wine!”
Zhu Qing's eyes showed a hint of clarity and smiled and said, "It's indeed your style of conduct. Choose the areas you are most familiar with!"
“These red wines…”
Aya Tamakawa held a bottle of wine in both hands, stared at the label, and fluctuated in his eyes: "Red wine?"
"Hey, smell the smell, ordered by the supplier with high evaluation of IGO." Xia Yu used a special bottle opener to pull out the bottle plug, and a strong fruity fragrance spread out. When he smelled this smell, Aya Kazu Tamakawa's face turned even more strange.
Just as she was about to ask, Xia Yu waved his hand and said, "Come on, come and get the lotus leaf jar that stores the rainbow wine."
Zhu Qing and Meisha were stunned and hadn't reacted yet.
Lotus leaf altar?
I brewed fruit wine a few days ago, but now I still have almost no consumption of raw liquid?
Just Aya Kazuki guessed roughly what Xia Yu was going to do, "I'll go!"
She had hope in her eyes and flashed into the house.
"Help, help!"
Xia Yu greeted Zhu Qing and Meisha, and carried the extra-large cooking pots. He worked with Zhu Qing to transport the charcoal stove in the backyard next to the Christmas pavilion, setting up a second tent. Soon, Xia's Christmas wine shop was roughly formed.
Ayaka did not directly bring a whole lotus leaf jar, but just took a special transparent bottle with a dropper. This bottle was more like a ware from a chemical laboratory than a kitchen utensil.
She handed the bottle and explained: "I usually use rainbow juice to cook food, but I use similar reagent bottles, which can closely control the dosage!"
Xia Yu raised his thumb, "You understand me!"
"Ah, rainbow juice?"
Meisa covered her mouth and her beautiful eyes were so wide that she opened her eyes. "Hot red wine, spice wine, do you want to add rainbow juice?"
Zhu Qing frowned fiercely, "Do you no longer have a bad eye!"
She shouted softly.
"The more advanced the ingredients, the more you pay attention to the combination. Spice wine should be filled with a lot of spices, such as lemon, cinnamon, star anise... Can the originally pure juice tolerate these impurities?"
It is because of the familiarity of spices and red wine that Zhu Qing has doubts.
Spice wine is not a unique thing. Not to mention her, if you change to a student from the Long Month High School here, you can easily cook a pot.
Xia Yu smiled and said, "At the Christmas market, there are also interesting spice bars that use juice instead of red wine and mix spices to cook?"
"It's okay to use juice, but it's a big problem to use rainbow juice!"
"What if I say, can I use spices to control rainbow juice?" Xia Yu showed his teeth slightly.
Zhu Qing immediately shut up.
At the same time, she couldn't help but mutter.
Although she didn't personally see Xia Yu defeating Lei Zhe with a fantasy egg custard containing food meaning, she probably knew that Xia Yu pushed open the gate of Linzhi. Because of this, Zhu Qing muttered, could this junior make any discoveries in the spice field after breaking through?
...
The light rain was drizzling like clouds, covering the shopping street.
As dusk passed, street lights lit up.
Christmas trees with neon lights can be seen everywhere, and you can hear Christmas music wherever you go. All restaurants on the street are entertaining guests who have made reservations in advance. The seats are full, and there are also queues waiting for dining outside.
At the door of the 'Mist House', Qian Hinata said to the queue with a smile: "Couples are preferred, and when couples check out, they will be offered a 30% discount. Our shop will also give you an exquisite gift!"
As a result, the single dogs in the crowd were critically injured.
Shopping street entrance.
Chen Yang felt mist, wearing a windbreaker and a scarf, next to him was a blonde girl holding his arm.
The blonde looked at the festive neighborhood and said incredibly: "Chan, this Christmas food festival is really lively, with so many guests!"
At this time, a young man and woman wearing high school uniforms passed by and talked:
"I heard that the Christmas stall in Xia's shop will be open until midnight tonight!"
"Yes, it's just one day on Christmas Eve, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the Xia shop will no longer set up small stalls." The girl burst into mist and pulled the boy's arm, "Go away quickly, we'll take the tram. If it's slower, it may take a long time to line up!"
"Xia's shop?" The blonde looked at Chen Yang carefully.
Chen Yang's face was in a daze.
His mother Lin Qingfeng had a video call a few days ago, which made him deeply remembered.
Lei Zhe was defeated and fled to Japan in panic.
This news made Chen Yang's mood difficult for a long time. Moreover, the one who defeated Lei Zhe, the old giant, was the young chef who had planned to take the initiative to launch the food halberd. Just thinking about Chen Yang was very scared.
My mother Lin Qingfeng told him on the phone: "Don't provoke that Xia boy!"
These days, Chen Yang hid and never came to the shop to ate any spice bread. He silently watched the food meeting like the earthquake caused by Lei Zhe's defeat in the Peking University.
The new Japanese affairs officer has not decided yet. It is said that the leader of the food club is very difficult. If the second giant sent by him is defeated again, the food club will ruin his face and become a laughing stock.
It was not until yesterday that Chen Yang calmly accepted the fact that a young chef, Lin Chu, used his own strength to leverage the entire food conference.
That’s right, it’s Lin Chu!
Defeating Lei Zhe is the most powerful proof, and there is no need for a promotion ceremony at the Lin level.
"After a hundred years, has another monster in the Chinese world comparable to those seniors?" Chen Yang murmured and said, with the blonde holding his arm, and said firmly, "Let's go to the Xia shop!"
"The snacks made by a chef Lin at the Christmas food festival are definitely not ordinary, right?"
Chapter completed!
