"Master He, even if it's fried to golden yellow, it's still fried to black. It's not easy these days. Where did so many pigs come to fry oil? Therefore, in order to save a little, he fried it clean. Although there would be a burnt smell, wouldn't there be more oil?”
In this era, there was indeed no such thing as waste. Any bit of food had to be used to the extreme.
The entire country had just recovered from the war and there were so many people eating. How could it be simple?
"Haha, to tell you the truth, I didn't fry it completely once and was scolded by the director before I understood. Later on, I fried it very cleanly. Moreover, even if this oil has a burnt smell, it's better than not having any oil. Everyone just wants to fill their stomachs, so they don't have to be so particular.”
Master Yang thought of the past. He was not angry. Instead, he was very happy.
After all these years, he should be proud that he had saved a lot of oil for the rolling mill.
He Yuzhu was also very shocked after hearing this. He was not a person of this era. If he had not transmigrated, he would not have imagined that people lived like this.
One had to know that the workers were doing manual labor these days. Even the frying oil was so frugal, so the oil in the dishes naturally wouldn't be much.
Without enough oil and water, it was easy to get hungry and had no strength to work. Instead, it would consume more staple food.
This was also the reason why the people of this era generally had a large appetite.
"Master Yang, just fry it until it's golden yellow this time. Then, scoop up the oil dregs. I still have use for them.”
He Yuzhu suddenly thought of a dish, fried oil dregs.
No matter how hard you fried the pig, you would still have to throw away some dregs in the end. However, if you ate all the dregs, wouldn't it be a waste?
Moreover, this way, the workers could replenish their oil and no longer have to eat burnt oil. It could be said to be killing several birds with one stone.
"What? Isn't this a waste? The director is probably going to do it again."
However, Master Yang didn't react in time. He was about to say that the director was going to scold him again, but he reacted. Master He was about to become the new director. The current canteen director had basically handed everything to him to manage.
Could it be that the new department director was going to change the rules?
Master Yang thought about it and finally did as he was told. After all, Master He was rarely unreliable.
Moreover, he was the leader now. If there was any responsibility, he would bear it.
"Ma Hua, go to the warehouse and wash some chili and cut them into pieces.”
As He Yuzhu spoke, she walked to the cutting area and asked someone to take out a portion of the radish and shred it.
There was a limited amount of oil every day, so he had to add some other side dishes to make a big pot of food.
But even so, it should be considered a good dish, right?
Time slowly passed. After the initial preparations were done, it was He Yuzhu's turn to make a move.
As expected, Master Yang followed the requirements and fried the pork fat until it was golden yellow before fishing it out.
Unsurprisingly, there was a lot less oil today. When he thought about how the workers would curse if there was less oil, he felt a little panicked.
"Ma Hua, look carefully. This is a dish with green peppers fried with oil dregs. If you can cook a big pot of food, it won't be a big problem for you to cook a small stove. This way, when there's a wedding in the countryside, you can also earn some extra money.”
When Ma Hua saw that his master was going to teach him a unique skill, he immediately ran over and stood at the side to watch seriously.
The rest of the people had never heard of frying oil dregs before and wanted to learn how to cook. They all ran over and surrounded He Yuzhu.
"I'll use the pot that fried the oil just now. The soup will turn into food. It won't be a waste."
He Yuzhu demonstrated as she explained. She scooped two large spoonfuls of pork fat and put it in. When the oil was warm, she first stir-fried the chili and shredded radish. Finally, she added salt, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and other seasonings into the oil residue. After the taste was mixed, she scooped it out.
The improvement in his culinary skills allowed He Yuzhu to have a deeper understanding of every step and control of the fire. Naturally, the dishes he made were fast and good.
The first dish was made just like that.
"Come, who wants to try it?”
It was normal for the chefs in the canteen to taste the dishes. Everyone picked a piece and tasted it.
"Mmm, it's amazing. Why does it taste like meat? It's even mixed with radish juice. It's sweet and fragrant!”
"I didn't expect that the workers of the steel mill could eat meat one day! Master He, you're really something. I'm impressed!”
After everyone tasted it, they were full of praise for this dish.
