This was really an accident. She didn't even know there were food festivals in other towns.
Why did you bring something back? Why don't you hide it?
However, with food festivals in other towns as cover, she went out more openly.
But that day, she was stopped by Willie. He excitedly pushed a newly purchased motorcycle over and said that he wanted to go to the food festival with her.
Xu Yin: "..."
Brother, I don’t know where the food festival door opens.
Why don't you go on your own, my sister has business to attend to.
"Ahem, I'm not going to the food festival today. I'm going to buy something."
"I'll go with Master." Willai sat on the motorcycle and tossed his helmet coolly, "You can teach me drifting on the way."
Xu Yin glanced at him: "But what I want to buy are girls-only products. It's not appropriate for you to follow me. Drift will teach you when I have a rest."
After saying that, she got on the car and drove away, so fast that Willie couldn't even catch up.
He scratched his head in confusion, saw Mrs. Hunter, and asked, "Mrs. Hunter, what exactly are girls' products?"
Mrs. Hunter: "..."
After a few words, the silly boy was sent away.
When Xu Yin stopped running out every day at noon, Cooktown also ushered in its own food fair and winter and spring agricultural supplies exchange meeting.
Xu Yin has been looking forward to this day for a long time. She has to buy a lot of things.
Nowadays, she is also a medium-sized manor owner, with farms, pastures, and lakes under her control, so of course she needs to have some things on hand.
You have to buy the grass seeds sown in early spring and the crop seeds grown on the farm.
She also plans to plant some fruit trees on the shores of Lake Ghana, and she also has to look for native fruit saplings.
There are also honey, ham, and white wine that she has long wanted to stock up on...
After Lin Lin made some calculations, he found that the money left on hand didn't seem to be enough.
We can only wait until next spring to stock up on fruit saplings. Let’s look at grass seeds and oat seeds first.
At this year's food fair, Mrs. Hunter asked Xu Yin to cook some of her specialty delicacies. Who taught her how to innovate? Whatever ingredients are used, what Sean cooks will always make everyone's eyes brighten.
The cook still makes the three things she is good at: goat's milk cakes, goat's milk cakes, and salty oatmeal cakes.
It was Xu Yin's first time to participate. She was unsure of the townspeople's preferences, so she simply followed the local customs and made a batch of goat milk-based meals - goat's milk pudding, goat's milk cake, and almond milk tea.
I was worried that everyone would be too tired after eating so much dairy products, so I prepared a bucket of dandelion tea.
Just as he was about to set off, old William brought over some prepared tender lambs and invited Xu Yin to roast them at the gourmet party.
"Everyone says that your roasted lamb is delicious. I recommend you as the chef of this year's gourmet festival. I will leave it to you to roast the whole lamb."
Mrs. Hunter winked at Xu Yin: "You must live up to your expectations!"
Xu Yin: "..."
When we arrived at the scene, we realized why we wanted her to succeed.
It turns out that every town’s food festival has a scoring process. Each town sends ten patrol officers to the site to interview, observe people’s feedback on the town’s food, and give scores to the food. The town with the highest final score won the honorary title of "Delicious Town" this year.
"Didn't you see those patrol officers when you went to other towns? Didn't you get interviewed by them?"
Well……
Can she say she didn't go to other towns for food festivals at all?
He quickly started another topic: "Then I'll just be responsible for roasting the whole lamb, okay? I don't need to take care of the rest, right?"
"Yes, you can just be responsible for the baking. The mayor's wife is there for the rest."
Xu Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
She only needs to roast the whole lamb, so she has no pressure at all.
Quietly prepare the barbecue ingredients in the system warehouse.
As soon as she arrived on site, she marinated the lamb. While marinating, she fired up the oven.
In order to adjust the best heat, I tried grilling a row of mutton skewers before serving the whole lamb.
It’s also the lamb belly provided by Old William.
Xu Yin quickly whittled a wooden skewer, skewered the fat and thin pieces of lamb belly cut into small pieces, ten pieces in a skewer and a handful of ten skewers, and grilled them.
I don’t think it’s very fragrant during the roasting process. After all, the locals are as familiar with roasted mutton as people in southern China are with rice.
Until Xu Yin sprinkled the spices, the rich and overbearing fragrance was carried to everyone's nose with the autumn wind, and everyone couldn't help but sniff the air.
"What is it? It smells so good!"
"It smells like roasted lamb, but is lamb so fragrant?"
"Which stall is it at? I want to try it!"
Following the scent, everyone found the roast mutton stall that Xu Yin was in charge of.
Just in time, the mutton skewers in her hand were grilled, and she distributed one skewer to everyone, and then started serving the whole lamb.
The whole lamb started to be roasted over the charcoal fire, and many people gradually gathered in front of the stall, including residents of Cook Town and people from other towns who were waiting to taste it.
Cooktown residents certainly know Xu Yin.
"This is Sean, the sheep-shearing champion of this year's Canterbury Regional Competition. She is from our town! She broke the previous record by shearing sheep by hand. Isn't it amazing?"
Other townspeople: "..."
So sour!
Why am I suddenly a lemon.
People in Cooktown are still proud to learn about Xu Yin's abilities: "The lamb she roasts is really delicious! I was lucky enough to taste a piece of lamb leg meat on the day of the celebration party. It was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and there was no fishy smell at all." "
So this time, they didn't plan to go anywhere. A quick look at the other stalls revealed that they were all the same food they had tried over the years. There was nothing new. They might as well stay here and wait for the roasted whole lamb to come out of the oven.
What? How long will it take?
It doesn't matter! No wages will be deducted for work delayed by the food festival, they have a lot of time!
Xu Yin: "..."
I'm afraid you'll be bored.
Forget it, she took advantage of the opportunity and grilled a few more mutton skewers, sprinkled them with spices and distributed them to everyone. You can eat and wait without getting bored.
Now, more people gathered around her stall.
Xu Yin: "..."
I tiptoed and glanced at the other stalls, what a guy! The stall owners all came out to eat mutton skewers and wait for the roasted lamb to be finished. The pressure was all on my sister's side.
Looking again, Willie, Oliva, Lucas, Little William, the cook... there are so many familiar faces in the crowd.
"..."
Forget about the others, isn’t the cook setting up a stall too? It’s so heartless to abandon the stall to support your own business.
Xu Yin was distracted and couldn't help but ask: "Rita, why are you here too? Don't you need to look at the stall?"
The cook who was crowded among the crowd laughed heartily and said: "Haha! What I am good at are those few dim sum dishes. Over the years, everyone has become familiar with them. They are all the same whether you look at them or not. People who buy them will throw the food coupons into the box if they know the price. inner."
"..."
"Sean, do you really don't need food coupons for the mutton skewers in your hand?" Oliva asked.
Xu Yin nodded: "That's all in total, so I won't accept it. If you think it's delicious, remember to buy the roasted whole lamb later."
"I would have come even if you didn't tell me."
"I have no intention of leaving."
"..."
Xu Yin also convinced them.
But after the roasted whole lamb was cooked and sprinkled with ingredients, the rich aroma hit her nostrils, making even her, the roast lamb stall owner, a little greedy.
She simply turned a blind eye and asked old William to go to the side to slice and weigh the meat for everyone. Young William and the others helped maintain order and collect food coupons, while she continued roasting the second lamb.
