Crispy whistle?
Lin Xu frowned, but he didn't expect to win the soul of Da Guizhou.
The motherland has a vast territory, and local people in various places are constantly giving up delicious ingredients, such as Sichuan and Chongqing people's Sichuan peppercorns, Guangxi people's sour bamboo shoots, Xiangxi people's chopped peppers, Cantonese people's barbecued pork, etc.
What Guizhou people love most is an ingredient called Jixiao.
This is a delicacy that many Chinese people have never heard of, and even if they have heard of it, they have never tasted it.
According to the correct pronunciation, it should actually be called Jianxiang, which is a kind of Xiangzi. It is the "芊" that Lu Zhishen ordered the town of Guanxi to take ten kilograms of golden cartilage and finely chop it into jianzi.
In the accent of southwestern people, the distinction between "s" and "sh" is not very clear, so the word "芊" is often pronounced as shào, and then there are two derived names: Jianshao and Jianshao.
The so-called crispy whistle refers to a kind of crispy texture made by boiling meat in the same way as lard and drying the fat.
In the past, crispy whistles were made from low-priced trough meat, but now, with the improvement of people's living standards, most crispy whistles are made from pure fat meat.
In addition, there are also soft whistles made from pork belly, fine whistles made from pure lean meat, and lean pork whistles made from slightly fatty meat, etc.
As material life improves, different methods of food processing will naturally emerge. This is the law of natural development.
Now that you have learned how to make a crispy whistle, let’s do it again.
With Crispy Whiskey, whether you are eating noodles or noodles, a spoonful of it will take the taste and texture to a higher level.
"Xubao, we are back!"
When I was stunned, Shen Jiayue's voice came from the direction of the stairs.
Lin Xu turned his head and was about to ask how the catch was when he saw this girl walking in carrying several big roosters. The feathers on these roosters had not yet faded, but their necks had been slit.
Apparently the blood has been drained.
This??????
Didn't you go fishing? Why did you come back with several chickens?
Did you buy it?
Even the Air Force should buy fish.
Besides, Dundun has also gone, and the air force is impossible, unless there is not even a small piece of white paper in the pond, it is purely a pond owner who is cheating people out of money.
"Are these chickens today's catch?"
Lin Xu took it and found a total of six big roosters, weighing about forty-five kilograms, each nearly eight kilograms. This kind of body is considered fat and strong among roosters.
"Yeah, awesome, right?"
Shen Jiayue took the teapot on the table next to her and poured herself a cup of tea. Then she drank it all. Only then did she realize that there was something wrong with her words:
"Oh, these chickens were exchanged for the catch. What's that look in your eyes? Are you doubting my ability to fish?"
Lin Xu put the chicken into the kitchen sink, then came to the kitchen door and asked:
"What's going on? Who did you change it with?"
Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"Fish pond boss, after we went there, we caught fish as soon as we sat down, big and small, and Yan Bao and I all caught fish. In the end, we were so tired that our arms were sore."
Lin Xu asked:
"Then why did you become a chicken?"
"It's not easy to run a business. We can't just go back and forth, and the boss is very honest. If he doesn't catch a fish for more than four hours, he will give away a free-range chicken so that he doesn't go back empty-handed..."
"So you relented and didn't want those catches?"
"It's not that I didn't want it, it was for exchange. The pond owner caught the chickens they raised nearby in the afternoon. These big roosters looked the most majestic, so we exchanged the catch. Originally we wanted to exchange for four, but
The pond owner felt that we were suffering too much, so he gave us two more."
Shen Jiayue was tired and hungry. After drinking water, she picked up the snacks on the table and started eating. At the same time, she asked Chezi to bring her two silver rolls.
When you are tired and hungry, it is better to eat carbohydrates to feel fuller.
Lin Xu asked with a smile:
"Did you get recognized when you were filming the video there, so you gave it away like this?"
"It doesn't seem like that. The pond owner doesn't play with his mobile phone very much. He is very busy growing vegetables, raising chickens and fish... But business is good today. Not long after we went there, the place was almost full."
From the market price point of view, it is not a loss for Shen Baobao and his sister-in-law to exchange their catch for these big roosters. It is really a bit of a profit, because even if you go to the market to buy these big roosters, each one will cost more than 100 yuan.
.
If it were pure free-range chicken, the price would be even more expensive.
Because the taste of farm-raised chicken is completely unmatched by ingredients such as three-yellow chicken, white-strip chicken, and white-feather chicken. It is not only fragrant, but also has firm meat and a strong taste.
Relying on a fish pond to save a chicken farm... Lin Xu thought that he could look back and see that this kind of giving away chickens if he couldn't catch fish would never let the air force move, which moved the old fishermen so much.
p>
The biggest fear when fishing is the air force, so when you don’t catch any fish, you either dig some wild vegetables or pick some wild fruits, and try not to go back empty-handed.
But the air force's approach of sending chickens to the fish pond saved Mr. Diao's face.
In this case, everyone will definitely like to go.
"Next time when I'm not busy, I'll go with you and experience the joy of fishing in winter."
Shen Jiayue said with joy upon hearing this:
"Okay, okay, the boss also said that when the chickens are gone, ducks will be given away, and their own pigs will be slaughtered. If we are lucky, we can still eat pig-killing vegetables."
Yo?
Is this too much?
Lin Xu thought the fish pond owner was really interesting.
"Lin Xu, what are you going to do with these chickens?"
Guo Xinghai came out of the kitchen with a curious expression on his face.
The chicken is very fat and strong, and every chef has the urge to cook it. However, the boss has to decide how to cook it. After all, this is not an ingredient purchased by the kitchen, but brought by the boss lady.<
/p>
Lin Xu said:
"You can just watch and play with it after you kill it. Anyway, this kind of free-range chicken is delicious no matter what you eat... By the way, don't throw away the chicken offal. I will use chopped pepper to make spicy and sour chicken offal later."
"Okay, then let's give it our best."
After Guo Xinghai entered, Shen Jiayue asked:
"Xubao, aren't you going to teach me how to make fried chicken in an air fryer? Is this big rooster good?"
Is that okay?
This is definitely possible, but it’s probably quite difficult to cook such a big chicken.
But thinking about the extra-large air and electric oven Shen Baobao recently bought, I thought I might give it a try. Even if it’s not cooked, I’d probably cut it into chicken pieces and bake it again.
As long as the chicken is marinated thoroughly, the rest will be much easier.
Lin Xu said:
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you. It's not difficult anyway."
"Learn, definitely learn!"
"Then we won't be able to eat it this afternoon, I guess we'll have to eat it in the evening."
To make fried chicken, you must first marinate the chicken. After the chicken is thoroughly marinated, you can put it in a pot and fry it in an air fryer. The marinating time must be at least four hours.
"Okay, I'll let my mom try the fried chicken I made tonight."
Lin Xu came to the kitchen and saw Che Zai and two helpers busy de-feathering the rooster.
These roosters have been slaughtered and bled, but their feathers have not faded and their internal organs have not been cleaned. They need to be cleaned again.
He said to Che Zi:
"Leave one for me to use later, and you can just practice your skills on the rest. If you feel like you can't finish it, leave it for tomorrow. Anyway, it'll be fine if you keep it chilled overnight."
"Good boss, everything has been arranged."
Zhuang Yizhou is going to make Huagu chicken soup, Wei Qian is going to make smoked chicken, Zhu Yong is going to make saliva chicken, Guo Xinghai is going to make clay pot braised chicken, Ma Zhiqiang is going to make clear braised chicken... With such good ingredients, everyone wants to cook it differently.
Dishes.
Lin Xu fully approves of this behavior of employees, because the more enthusiasm they put into practice, the better their cooking skills will be, and the greater the harvest in the store will be.
Although their wages will also rise, the efforts are worth it.
Moreover, after a good learning atmosphere is formed, the atmosphere in the kitchen will become better and better. Everyone will spend their energy on improving their cooking skills, and there will naturally be fewer intrigues.
After all, free time outside of work is limited. If you use it to compete on cooking skills, you won’t have time for intrigues.
Soon after the rooster was slaughtered, Lin Xu took the chicken to the small kitchen next to it and began to teach Shen Jiayue how to marinate the chicken.
"What do you need to do, Xubao?"
"You don't have to do anything. First, wash the chicken with table salt. This is very important. Table salt has powerful cleaning and adsorption functions, and can absorb dirt in the pores."
This kind of scrubbing can not only effectively remove dirt from the chicken skin, but also give the chicken a simple flavor.
Shen Jiayue looked at a bowl of dirty salt and rubbed the chicken again. She didn't feel that she was using much force, but the salt had changed color and the chicken skin had become better-looking.
Not only do some pores look much cleaner, but even some mucous membrane-like things on the chicken skin have been scrubbed off.
Rub the chicken with salt, take a large handful of washed green onions and coriander, and rub them in a basin to draw out the juice. Then break up the ginger with the back of a knife, chop the millet into small pieces, and rub it with gloves to draw out the juice.
Then add peppercorns, star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon, ginger, galangal, lemongrass and other spices and stir evenly.
Finally, add light soy sauce, rice wine and salt, and apply these ingredients evenly on the inside and outside of the chicken. Use a meat needle to prick the thick part of the meat a few times to facilitate the penetration of the flavor.
After all is applied, stuff the spices and ingredients into the belly of the chicken.
Place the rest on the thighs, wings and other thicker parts.
Because I planned to eat it at night, I doubled the marinade than usual so that the flavor would penetrate deeper into the chicken faster.
Put the chicken in a basin, seal it with plastic wrap, and put it in the refrigerator to marinate.
When chicken is under low temperature conditions, the water will penetrate into the meat as much as possible, and the juice will also take the opportunity to penetrate deep into the meat, so that the flavor will be immersed.
"Is this enough?"
"Yes, if the chicken wasn't too big, we wouldn't need so much ingredients."
Shen Jiayue thinks making roast chicken is not difficult.
She asked curiously:
"Will it not be baked through?"
"I don't know about the air fryer, but the oven is absolutely fine. Even a turkey can be cooked through, let alone a big rooster that is several times smaller."
Not long after, dinner started, and everyone showed off their chicken-making skills, which the employees said was so enjoyable.
After get off work in the evening, Shen Jiayue didn't forget to take back the marinated chicken in the refrigerator.
You have to show off your skills to your mother-in-law tonight, so don’t forget it.
When she got home, she first put the marinated chicken in the refrigerator, then took out a few potatoes, washed them first, then used an automatic peeler to peel off the skin, and then put them into a slicer to cut into French fries.
.
Finally, mix the ingredients, put them into the air fryer, and start making French fries.
Chen Meijuan, who had been busy in the ginkgo garden for most of the day, stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window with Dundun in her arms and looked at the scenery outside, feeling very emotional.
If someone had told her six months ago that Lin Xu would have a career in the capital and a house worth tens of millions, she would never have believed it.
But now, even though the fact has happened, Chen Meijuan still feels like she is in a dream.
When she was hugging Dundun and sighing, the doorbell rang.
Chen Yanrenjie, Shen Guofu, Han Shuzhen and others came upstairs.
"Aunt Chen, are you really going back tomorrow? We also want to invite you to the New Year's Day engagement party."
Chen Yan was very reluctant to give up, and Chen Yuanyuan also said:
"Third aunt, why don't you stay here for a few more days?"
"No, the scenic spot is being expanded and must be completed before the 20th of the twelfth lunar month, because Xiaoxu is having a wedding during the Spring Festival and is planning to go back to his hometown to hold one. It would be embarrassing if there are scaffolding all over the ground."
Chen Meijuan also wants to live in the capital forever, and watch TV dramas with her daughter-in-law every day, play with Dundun together, and research some delicious food together.
But there is still a loan of almost 10 million in the scenic area. In addition, Mr. Yan has injected so much money that we cannot let people lose money.
However, I won’t be able to stay long when I go back this time. I will have to come to the capital with my whole family in about half a month to attend my son’s wedding.
Shen Guofu sat down, turned on the TV, and started playing games with Shen Jiayue.
Ren Jie originally wanted to go to the kitchen to help see what food was being prepared there, but when he saw various small kitchen appliances such as peelers and slicers, he felt like he was in a small appliance city.
"Why are you messing around with so many things?"
Lin Xu, who was marinating meat and preparing for Shen Jiayue to make chicken popcorn, said:
"Yueyue has been obsessed with cooking recently, but her skills are poor, so she bought a bunch of small appliances to replace her skills. She almost bought an automatic cooking machine before, but I stopped her."
Since I'm here, I'd better forget about the cooking machine, so as not to spread the word and make everyone laugh.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, when everyone was sitting in the living room chatting while eating snacks, Lin Xu opened the refrigerator, took out the chicken, which had probably been marinated, and started to prepare it for baking in the air fryer.
It's said to be a pot, but it's actually an oven, except that it blows hot air.
Clean all the spices from the chicken and clean the abdominal cavity as well.
Then stuff the tips of the chicken wings from the bleeding area on the neck, directly into the chicken head, break the chicken legs, and then fold the chicken feet into the abdominal cavity.
Put a small handful of tomatoes, a peeled, cored and thickly sliced apple, apply a layer of honey on the surface, then put the chicken breast side up into the multifunctional cooking box, and add a tray at the bottom to prevent oil dripping.<
/p>
Turn on the air fryer function and start baking.
Under normal circumstances, it is best to marinate a chicken of this size overnight so that it can taste better.
After Lin Xu put it in, he prepared the dry dish for dipping.
If the flavor is not enough, add some dipping sauce.
As long as the spicy dry dish dipping sauce is used, even if the chicken has no taste, as long as it is cooked, it will definitely not taste bad.
Shen Jiayue asked quietly from the side:
"Xubao, won't the chicken made this way taste bad?"
"No, it's absolutely delicious."
The young couple brought freshly made onion rings, chicken popcorn and other air fryer snacks to the living room, where Chen Yan was telling about today's fishing experience.
Shen Guofu is not in the mood to play games:
"Is there such a place in the suburbs of Beijing? I didn't expect it. I will try it later."
If you can't catch any fish, you still give away free-range chickens. This is simply not very considerate.
Han Shuzhen asked:
"Isn't the fish pond owner afraid of losing money?"
Chen Yan smiled:
"I won't lose money, because the price of fish ponds that are calculated based on time is quite high, and the boss seems to be quitting after the new year, so I will sell half of it and half give it away, saying it is to repay the old fishing friends, but in detail
We didn’t ask anything about the situation.”
Are you going to quit after this year?
Then you have to go and experience it, and experience the feeling of being sent chickens and ducks to the Air Force.
Twenty minutes later, the chicken in the multi-functional cooking box had become rosy in color and rich in fragrance. Lin Xu took it out, brushed it with a layer of honey, and continued roasting.
After another ten minutes, the whole chicken was completely roasted.
The skin of the chicken is red and crispy, while the meat inside is tender and juicy, and the juice will burst out with a little movement.
It was brought to the living room, and after everyone finished taking photos, Lin Xu tore it open with his hands, and tasted the meat from a chicken leg. Unexpectedly, it was surprisingly good.
The meat is soft and tender yet juicy and juicy, much better than the roasted and fried chicken you buy.
Of course, the main reason is that the chicken used today is better. The meat quality of free-range chicken is absolutely outstanding, and it tastes very enjoyable.
“It’s so delicious!”
"Not bad, much better than the roasted chicken we bought."
“It’s fragrant and tender, and the meat inside is very chewy.”
"..."
The family was boasting while eating. Lin Xu pinched the chicken feet and ate them slowly. The chicken feet absorbed the flavor of the tomatoes and apples, making them sweet and sour, which was very enjoyable.
While chewing, he turned on his mobile phone to see if there were any hot news on the Internet.
Then see the hot news recommended by the short video platform:
"Yanjing Satellite TV's food program "Eat the World" joins hands with Michelin three-star chef Min Zhengnan to create a new food program, allowing you to enjoy foreign meals without leaving home."
Click on the link to see Min Zhengnan’s interview and Michelin’s popular science.
Lin Xu was a little surprised:
"A program that will only be broadcast tomorrow afternoon is being warmed up now? It seems that this competition is bound to win."
Chen Yan didn't grab Shen Jiayue's chicken wings, she sucked her fingers and asked:
"What's wrong, brother-in-law?"
Lin Xu smiled:
"The TV station actually spent money to promote tomorrow's program. I wonder if there was too much pressure from advertisers, so they went out of their way."
Preheating in advance is a good thing, as it can increase the number of views tomorrow.
But if you can't compare, it will be great fun.
When Chen Yan heard this, she stopped eating chicken. She wiped her hands with a wet tissue and took Lin Xu's phone to look at it, with a surprised expression on her face:
"Hey, I didn't expect that they actually gave me an assist. Now the chance of Shiweirenjian being suspended is even greater."
Shen Jiayue asked while holding the chicken wings in her hand:
"Yanbao, what are you doing? Are you taking away the TV station's sponsors?"
Chen Yan smiled and shook her head:
"It's too small, Yueyue, your situation is too small. I don't have the money, so why are you trying to steal other people's sponsors?"
"Then how are you going to stop the broadcast of Shiweirenjian?"
Chen Yuanyuan and Zeng Xiaoqi were also surprised. They always felt that Chen Yan was mysterious and very confident.
But how can you destroy the show if you don’t grab sponsors?
Chen Yan snatched the chicken wings from Shen Jiayue's hand and took a bite before saying:
"I found a group of industry authorities to expose the scandal of Michelin ratings. The more Yanjing TV talks about Michelin, the more painful it will be tomorrow..."
