BXBX NOVEL Chapter 89 - 89 Spicy Stewed Meat
There were many uses for hot chilis. Almost all dishes could be added with hot chilis. It was simply a blessing for the humid and cold areas in winter.
Jian Qingqing added the chilies into the stewed meat. They were divided into three types, mild, medium, and heavy. She only made five catties of each and gave them to the customers who came to buy stewed meat for free.
The stewed meat with chilies was cut into small pieces and placed in a wooden basin. It was placed in the most eye-catching position in the shop to ensure that every customer who entered the shop could see it. Jian Qingqing stood to the side to promote the sale.
The moment the shop opened, a group of people came in. When they saw Jian Qingqing, they were surprised for a moment. Then, they smiled and said, “Why is Lady Jian here? You haven’t been here for a long time.”
After Jian Qingqing opened the shop, she basically handed it over to the workers. She rarely came.
She smiled embarrassedly and said, “I’ve come up with a new product today. Do you all want to try it?”
The customers were delighted and said happily, “Of course we want to try it. Who doesn’t know that Lady Jian’s dishes are the best? What new product is it? Let’s have a look.”
Jian Qingqing made a ‘please’ gesture and showed the stewed meat beside her to the guests. She smiled and said, “Here, this is it!”
The guests looked at the three pots of stewed meat and said doubtfully, “Isn’t this stewed meat?”
“Yes, Lady Jian, are you trying to deceive us?”
Jian Qingqing raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, “This is stewed meat, that’s right. You’ll know if it’s a new dish after you try it. I suggest you try it from the first pot. “The first pot was slightly spicy.
A guest took the chopsticks, hesitantly picked up a piece of meat, and put it into her mouth. She chewed it a few times and said, “It seems to be a little different. It seems…”
The guest seemed to be thinking about what word to use to express it.
“There’s a spicy taste? But it’s not the spicy taste of ginger.” She shook her head and said, “It’s really strange.”
Jian Qingqing smiled slightly and said, “Would you like to try the remaining two pots?”
This time, the customer did not hesitate to pick up the second pot of meat and eat it. She quickly said, “This one is a little spicier than the previous one.”
Then, she picked up the third pot and put it into her mouth. She frowned and opened her mouth to let out a breath. She wanted to spit it out but was reluctant to. She quickly chewed twice and swallowed it. “Water! Give me water quickly!”
The other customers were shocked by her reaction and quickly asked, “What’s going on? What kind of taste does this meat have?”
Jian Qingqing quickly handed over a glass of water. The guest drank the water in one go and finally felt better, she took a deep breath and said, “This is much spicier than the previous two pots. When I put it in my mouth, I felt like my tongue was on fire. However, after eating it, I actually feel great!”
At this point, the guest looked at Jian Qingqing and asked curiously, “Lady Jian, what did you put in this stewed meat? Why is it so spicy?”
Jian Qingqing explained with a smile, “This is a red fruit that I happened to get. I call it chili. It’s extremely spicy when eaten raw, but when put into a dish as a seasoning, it’s the best. When it’s cold, it’ll heat up your whole body.”
The other customers had not tried it yet, so when they heard this, they asked suspiciously, “Is it really that magical?”
Jian Qingqing did not explain further, but only said, “Everyone, try it and you’ll know if what I said is true.”
The guests were no longer polite and started to taste the spicy stewed meat.
Jian Qingqing stood aside and observed their reactions. If someone could not stand it, she would pass the water over.
