The little shop had a new signboard, the two most eye-catching characters being:
Kung Fu!
Kung Fu Sizzling Claypot!
Jiang Feng really liked these two words; they could be found in many small eateries in Guangzhou.
They represented something special.
Sun Zhuangfei was dressed in a chef's uniform, his chef's hat covering his conspicuous buzz cut. He also wore a mask, making him hard to recognize at first glance.
He was in the back kitchen, patiently marinating chicken according to Jiang Feng's instructions.
The method for making sizzling claypots was simple: marinate the ingredients well, stir-fry them until cooked, then add the sizzling sauce and stew them in a claypot.
The soul of the sizzling claypot was its sizzling sauce.
The thick sauce fully penetrated the ingredients, and then the high-temperature stewing process reduced the sauce, concentrating its flavors as moisture evaporated.
