Donkey meat is delicious, because it is the donkey meat between the rivers, and it is said that the donkey in the river is the god species left by the donkey of the eight immortals Zhang Guolao, or how to say "heavenly dragon meat, underground donkey meat". There are now more than 10,000 donkey meat fires sold in Hejian, but donkey meat fire, although it is a famous snack in Hejian, is commonly found in roadside fly restaurants, even if it is delicious and not expensive, it is difficult to climb the elegant hall. Folk have a "donkey meat on the feast" saying, although there were donkey meat feasts before, but that is, boiling, stir-frying, grunting, stewing, is such a good ingredient, really can not be on the elegant hall? The one introduced to you today, poured half his life savings, painstakingly studied for more than ten years, and finally let the donkey meat fire from street food to high-end banquets, casting the glory of donkey meat.
A native of Li'an Village, a village in Hejian City, Takashibashi, has two favorite things since childhood: singing and cooking. After ten years of training, he has worked on building materials, run through transportation, and is also a leader in his career. Before the 29th Olympic Games in 2006, Gao Shiqiao's business in Beijing was in full swing, but at this time he was thinking about transformation. At that time, his younger brother Gao Jianmin sold donkey meat in Shijiazhuang and became the first successful person to go out of the donkey meat fire industry in Hejian Province. Takashibashi, who has loved to cook since he was a child, is also influenced by it and wants to enter the catering industry. By the way, Gao Shiqiao, Wang Fatzi and Gao Jianmin between the rivers are now the leaders of the donkey meat industry in the river.
Just do it! Gao Shiqiao first opened a donkey meat fire shop, the business is not bad, after doing a big business he is not satisfied to open a big shop, Gao Shiqiao and took out half a life's savings, opened a shop in a bustling place in Haidian District, took the name Liqiao Shun, meaning that the business is smoothly developed. But who admits that catering is so difficult to do, the loss is a mess, and when he does not know how, he meets a noble person who has turned his career, this person is Wei Jinting.
Who is Wei Jinting? In the early days of liberation, beijing hotels had four famous chefs, four small famous chefs, and the four famous chefs were Luo Guorong, Fan Junkang, Chen Sheng, and Wang Lan. In addition to the four famous chefs, there are also four small famous chefs, and this Wei Jinting is one of the four small famous chefs. So how did this state banquet master know Gao Shiqiao, as mentioned earlier, Gao Shiqiao likes to sing opera, and he went to great lengths to sing opera, and he worshiped Li Xin, a descendant of the famous Peking Opera artist Qiu Pai, as a teacher. Although the hotel was running in a slump, it did not prevent him from taking time out of his daily life to learn to sing. Gao Shiqiao invited the master to dinner, and Li Xin grinned at the first dish, what is this thing. But the master really hurt the apprentice, saying that he let you know someone that day, so he made an appointment to form a bureau. The master invited you to dinner, and the first high ishibashi Ma li arrived early in the morning, and saw a person at the table who looked qinggu, and this person was Wei Jinting.
Wei Jinting serves senior leaders of the state, every day is a state banquet, because the work generally does not contact with the outside world, let alone accept apprentices, it is also coincidental, one is Wei Jinting is also good At Peking Opera, the second is Wei Jinting and the chugao stone bridge are all hejian people, the fellow villagers see the old and have common hobbies, the third gao shiqiao can say that the Taoist will come to see a lover's flesh, one future two people to go to the two people to join Wei Jinting to accept this apprentice, or how to say that this is fate.
The master helps the apprentice to be real, and he has no reservations about this apprentice, from material selection, knife work, collocation, to the heat, setting up the table and sharing meals, a little bit of teaching, the same learning. Feast dishes, home cooking, Master Wei, like a martial arts master, combines a variety of meat dishes, spices and flour to the extreme. Teach yourself the best of your life. Guess what, after a few months of profit, and the business is getting better and better, but the grandfather is not satisfied, thinking about how to put the donkey meat in his hometown to a door, Master Wei Jinting said, "Remember, the real delicacy is not embellished by complicated tricks, but like our Chinese, simple, innocent, the road is simple, but the more you touch, the more flavorful." ”
They summed up that although the donkey meat in their hometown is good, the production method is rough, and the good raw materials are wasted, so Wei Jinting uses the technical technique of making a state banquet to recreate a new donkey meat full table, with donkey meat as the main dish, meat and vegetarian collocation, fully reflecting the characteristics of hejian and The taste of China. Donkey purple cover, full silk donkey glue, are liqiao shun exclusive taste. Takashi Bridge breaks the myth that donkey meat can't be served on a big table. Usually the banquet pays attention to the combination of hot and cold, color, meat and vegetarian, first cold and then hot, first meat and then vegetarian, first salty and then sweet, head soup and tail soup, which is the configuration and standard of the whole set of banquet dishes. Donkey meat is only one of the animal ingredients in the donkey meat full table, supplemented by other animal ingredients such as chicken, duck and fish, but as long as it contains 5 classic parts of the donkey' dish, it can be called donkey meat full table.
For example, donkey purple cover is the original famous dish of Liqiao Shun, and many diners come to Liqiao Shun to run this mouthful. If donkey meat fire is a river delicacy, then donkey purple cover is "upgraded donkey fire" and "Rolls-roth in donkey fire". Donkey Purple Cover takes the donkey's "pork belly" located between the hard ribs and the soft ribs, and has both skin, fat, thinness and tendons, and inserts it into the crispy skin that has just come out of the oven and burns it, and borrows from the Beijing roast duck eating method, accompanied by scallion noodle sauce. When eaten, it is crispy and tender, with a unique flavor.
Whole silk donkey glue is a best-selling dish of Liqiao Shun, the main ingredient is donkey skin and donkey tendons, but it is made by boiling shark fin soup. Six-dollar donkey skin with three-dollar chicken shredded and three-dollar donkey tendon, and then add 13 kinds of ingredients such as shiitake mushrooms, winter shoots, ham, dried scallops, shredded onion, ginger shredded, boiled for eight hours, the finished soup is clear and rich, the taste is mellow and delicious.
Gao Shiqiao earned money from donkey meat, and in twelve years, Gao Shiqiao developed more than 200 donkey meat dishes. He opened 5 LiqiaoShun restaurants in Tiantongyuan and Haidian District, Beiwa Road and Sidaokou, becoming the well-known "donkey meat first" in Beijing. Gao Shiqiao was appointed president of the Beijing branch of the Hejian Donkey Meat Fire Industry Association. TakashiQiao led the Liqiao Shun team to participate in the French Senna to participate in the 14th International Food health competition to win gold, Liqiao Shun won glory for China! Earning light for the river, Takashibashi became a prominent figure in the catering industry.
