Her name is "Xiaoshui", and she is a super-beautiful Chengdu girl who can cook. Since she started "private cuisine" on the Internet, her popularity has soared. Later, she set up her own website, which was reported in various forums, and CCTV Life Channel's "Scent of Kyushu-Looking for Private Cuisine" also reported her specially. Now she seems to be a beautiful gourmet. She also served as the host of Chengdu Life Channel Cuisine Chengdu. Let's introduce our protagonist in detail: everyone loves "Num".
Num Forum: /xsbbs/
She is a very different and fashionable Chengdu girl. She started her own gourmet website in the special family environment where her parents divorced, and shared her cooking experience with everyone almost every day. She also bought a full set of cooking supplies with the money she earned from working, which was too much to put down at home. Now, she has created the first family AA private kitchen in Chengdu and started her personal life of cooking for strangers for free.
The divorce of parents makes Num stronger. When I mentioned my mother, Num kept smiling. For a moment, she gave me the illusion that my mother and daughter were misplaced. < P > "My father and mother are divorced, and I have been with my mother." We sat down by the river, and in the glass, Su Mao Feng was steaming. Num gently held the glass and said this sentence calmly. I didn't expect such an opening remark. Seeing her slightly permed long hair lying obediently on her shoulder, I didn't know what to change the topic for a moment. Fortunately, she soon found my embarrassment and began to talk about her interest in cooking. This 22-year-old girl who is about to graduate from college has strong language control, and she will make you think and imagine following her topic.
After my parents divorced, my father moved out, and Num's mother lost her job, and the mother and daughter lived together in a small house on Taisheng Road. My mother tried to find a job, but because of the limitation of culture and age, she was rejected again and again. Plus the daughter who is not at ease entering adolescence, more time, she can only stay at home and make food for her daughter with limited food money. The sensible Num doesn't want her mother to work so hard. As long as she has time, she helps her mother cook as much as possible. "I don't think cooking is a very troublesome thing. I used to think about how to renovate cheap vegetables. Later, I entered the university. Because I majored in tourism, I went to work everywhere and opened a lot of eyes before I really had a hobby and interest in cooking."
Num kept smiling when she mentioned her mother. For a moment, she gave me the illusion that my mother and daughter were misplaced. As if she were the mother, she always smiled and tolerated her children's wayward and naughty habits.
In fact, Num's mother is a quiet and peaceful housewife. No matter the blow of marriage or career, it failed to take a smile away from her face. She has lived in the noisy downtown for decades, and the personnel changes around her have hardly affected her. Her attitude of being calm and contented with life and never complaining has more or less influenced the habits and mentality of young Num. "Since I worked to earn money to buy a computer online, my mother almost took my place. Apart from the daily housework, she can spend almost the whole day surfing the Internet, playing games, playing QQ and watching online movies. Now on the Internet, her popularity far exceeds mine. " Num said with a smile that she was very satisfied with her mother's present life. "She used to be very tired. Her generation was burdened with too much pressure and responsibility. It is the greatest comfort for me that she can relax and enjoy life."
She has been working since she was a freshman, and cooking and studying have never been a contradiction. Nowadays, Xiaoshui has become a gourmet expert
In July p>21, Xiaoshui was admitted to Sichuan Normal University, majoring in tourism and hotel management. The tuition fee is collected by parents and relatives. In order to reduce the burden on the family, Xiaoshui started a work-study career from the freshman year. While working in a restaurant, Num became interested in western food. She began to refer to some famous western food practices on the Internet and experimented at home. At that time, her mother was her only "customer".
After successively serving as the reporter of Sichuan Cuisine, the food information and the editor of Chengdu Dining, Drinking and Playing Network, Xiaoshui began to learn some classic dishes at home and abroad in a planned way, and began to invite classmates and friends to taste them at home. She set a new task for herself, asking to learn to cook at least two new dishes and DIY one dish every week. In order to get more objective comments, Num bought a digital camera, photographed every dish he cooked and posted it online for everyone to discuss and comment. After doing so, some constructive suggestions have given Num enlightenment and help, but they have also been regarded as opportunities for free publicity by some savvy businessmen. They threw olive branches at Num one after another and invited her to their shop to "eat and drink for free". The only requirement was that Num also take pictures of their dishes and post them on the website to introduce them. "From this point of view, I feel that I am very principled. Most of these people are my friends on the forum of Banzhu, so I can't be cruel if I don't erase them. But after I go, I won't see how much his shop decoration cost and whether the surrounding environment is cool. I go as a diner. I just want to know the taste of the dishes in his shop and whether these dishes are worth the price at the time of sale. I only recommend really delicious things, I can't smash my own signboard. " Num is serious, as if he has become the most authoritative food critic in this city.
In January, 24, the film Magic Kitchen starring Sammi Cheng, Andy Lau, Jerry Yan and other big names was shown in major theaters. With the popularity of the film, the new catering method of "private kitchen" immediately flourished, and Num was inspired. I hope I can refine my cooking skills. When the time is right, I will open such an elegant small restaurant in Chengdu. This idea has also been supported by my mother. "In order to buy expensive cooking supplies, I began to work crazily. The teachers at school know my family's situation, and they don't feel sorry for me. They just hope that I can grasp the study time and pass the exam smoothly. Strangely enough, during these years when I fell madly in love with the kitchen, my studies have not been delayed at all. I passed the final exam, Putonghua, English test and so on very smoothly. I think it may be because I love cooking. Cooking requires tenacity and patience, and so does learning. I am not an anxious person, and I can't cook well if I am impatient. "
after the opening of p>AA private cuisine, almost all the participants were strangers. If you see a beautiful girl holding a cake in the dusk of Taisheng Road, she is Num
After falling in love with baking, Num worked hard and bought an expensive oven and a set of baking tools. The home is too narrow, and the oven can't fit in. Fortunately, her boyfriend's home is close to her own, so Num had to take the cake home after it was processed at her boyfriend's home. So often, at dusk on Taisheng Road, people will see a beautiful girl holding a big cake and walking happily through the crowded people. I read the latest BF (Food Making Method) report of Num on the Internet. Just a cheesecake needs cream cheese, milk, butter, low flour, corn starch, egg yolk, protein, lemon pieces, white wine or rum, white sugar, digestive biscuits, etc. It takes about an afternoon.
in March, 25, after more than one year's careful preparation and cooking study, Xiaoshui set up her own independent website with the help of her boyfriend. In the food column, she not only provided her cooking skills for free, but also created the first AA private kitchen in Chengdu. Unlike profitable commercial private kitchens, she has no high-end shops and no high fees. It is almost a process of tasting food for free to let participants share only the purchase of dishes. At the beginning, private kitchens allowed online single registration, and applicants could order dishes without scruple, and then Xiaoshui set the time (usually on weekend nights), so friends could go directly to her home to have a big meal. However, after several attempts, due to the unstable number of participants, there were only two or three when there were few, and when there were many, there was no room for them at home. Num immediately made a revision, requiring that in the future, the registration must be "organized" by eight people. After controlling the number of people, both the cost of food and the space at home are just right.
"At first, after the news of private cuisine was published on the Internet, many friends advised me that people on the Internet are complicated, and a gentle person on the Internet might become a wolf after meeting. However, after thinking about it, I think that there are still many good people in this society as a whole. If you preconceived that everyone in this world is a bad person, it proves that your mentality is too gloomy. Everyone has the original sin and the potential factors of crime. It is good to be cautious, but it is too much to guard against everyone as a thief. " Xiaoshui's private kitchen has been successfully held for 14 times since its inception, with young people and middle-aged people participating, and no one has ever made trouble in her home. Now, the date of online registration of "Xiaoshui Private Kitchen" has been scheduled for mid-July. As a reporter, I tried hard and soft again and again, hoping that Xiao Shuineng would make an exception and let me "taste it first", but she politely refused. "I am an absolutely fair person. Besides, I must cook for eight people. It is boring to cook with fewer people and less vegetables."
She showed me the menu of the latest issue of private kitchens and photos of finished products. On this menu for 8 people, the cold dishes include scalded rabbit, crispy dried bean curd, three-color eggs and cold cucumber; Hot dishes include ribs with fermented bean curd, mushrooms in casserole, curry chicken, salted boiled white, perfume fish, fish-flavored anchovies, Sichuan style pork and Jinsha corn. The soup is corn sparerib soup, and the dessert is homemade fruit ice cream. In a normal restaurant, it is at least the price around 2 yuan. "My private kitchen has always been a loss-making business, but I can't help it. I just love the kitchen. I like this lifestyle and I want to keep it going."
