After the duck meat is smoked, it must be stewed again. This is one of the characteristics of Wuwei Ban duck, which is to smoke first and then braised.

The ingredients of braised duck are also particularly important and are a secret recipe. However, Ye Chui has used his own tasting ability at the God of Food to understand this ingredients thoroughly. The seasonings used in braised duck include star anise, pepper, cinnamon, cloves, grass fruits, cumin, fennel, Sichuan bone fragrance, bay leaves, etc.

After these delicious seasonings are boiled, the fragrances in the seasonings will merge together and react chemically with the duck meat to create the unique strong aroma of Wuwei Ban duck.

During the process of smoked and roasting duck meat, Ye Chui began to prepare the seasonings for mixing. There were new decorations in the kitchen and there were no shortage of kitchen utensils, but all kinds of seasonings were not arranged. Fortunately, when Dong Qian went to buy duck meat, she also bought some useful seasonings.

The role of condiments, especially the various spices consumed in traditional Chinese food, plays a very important role in cooking.

A qualified chef should have a complete understanding of all kinds of spices and fully understand the role of each spice. However, it is not easy to do this. After all, there are hundreds of kinds of spices in Chinese cuisine. Ordinary chefs, even the most basic spices, such as star anise and pepper, cannot fully control the taste of these hundreds of spices. Not to mention fully understanding the various characteristics of these hundreds of spices.

Even Dong Qian did not have a thorough understanding of spices. The smoked duck dish she made was quite casual in choosing spices, and did not consider the specific effect of the fragrance at all.

At this moment, Ye Chui found a small cloth bag for braised meat and began to put spices into the cloth bag.

The proportion and composition of this spice is the secret recipe.

The secret recipes that Ye Chui knows can be described in countless ways. The spice ratios required for many delicacies are completely different. Ye Chui can completely record these complex recipes, such as the beef plates made by Ye Chui at the time, with more than 20 kinds of seasonings, Ye Chui can still make the recipes in every detail.

Of course, Ye Chui can remember so many secret recipes. In fact, what he relies on is not extraordinary memory, but memory of taste and ultimate understanding of various spices.

He just needs to remember the aroma of the food, and when he starts cooking, he will use the aroma to increase the spice ratio!

Just like now.

"Wow, Ye Chui, aren't you? Are you so accurate in choosing a spice? Is it necessary?" Dong Youyou saw Ye Chuizheng put all kinds of spices into the cloth bag at a certain ratio bit by bit, and immediately couldn't help but say.

"Of course it is necessary. Although the taste of spices is insignificant in the whole dish, the role played by every type of world is crucial, a little more or less. It may cause a change in the taste." Ye Chui said to Dong Youyou very seriously, and then handed the glass bottle containing the peppercorns to Dong Youyou's hand. "Youyou, help me out dozens of three peppercorns... No, it's better to have fourteen, fourteen are more suitable."

Dong Youyou: “…”

Seeing Dong Youyou start counting peppercorns with a depressed look, Dong Qian stood beside her and thoughtfully, but in fact she had a certain feeling about the choice of spices. Any chef with a good level has already formed a certain feeling. He puts various seasonings on his feelings, and he has a meticulous understanding of spices. She is obviously much worse than Ye Chui. In fact, Ye Chui's way of using spices also comes from feelings, but his feeling is far more powerful than Dong Qian.

Dong Qian's use of spices is to find a certain flavor, while leaf cherry creates a flavor.

The spices were quickly slowed down in the cloth bag, and the leaves were about to be put into the pot. Pour half of the pot of water, and when the water in the pot began to boil, the smoked duck next to it was already cooked, and the process of smoked duck was completely smoked. At this moment, the whole duck meat was burnt on the outside and tender inside, with a layer of black on the surface. The leaves were gently patted on the surface of the duck meat, and the skin of the duck meat gradually fell off, revealing the tender red body inside.

——This is why the leaves hang and molt after being smoked and roasted, keeping the flesh fresh and tender.

Duck meat is different from chicken, and it has a larger body shape. If you want the duck meat to be cooked thoroughly, the skin of the duck meat must be charred. If you molt the skin first and then smoke it, the meat will definitely become much worse by then.

Ye Chui carefully twisted the steaming duck meat, put it into boiling brine, and started braising the duck meat.

Braised is a unique cooking method in China. It refers to putting the newly processed food into the marinade and gradually heating it over fire to allow the taste of the marinade to enter the food.

In the pot, the spices made of leaf sag are placed in a cloth bag. After hot water processing, the strong fragrance is emitted, and the water in the pot has completely turned red.

This red color was deliberately made by Ye Chu. He put perilla and other spices into the spices in the cloth bag. The main function of these spices is to dye the food.

Generally, Wuwei Ban Duck is stained with edible nitro water, but the leaf cherry thinks that nitro water is harmful to the human body, so I find other methods.

After putting the duck meat in the pot, Ye Chuan Bing pressed the duck meat with a bamboo sieve to completely immerse the duck meat in the brine. Cover the lid of the pot and simmered it over low heat. After ten minutes, Ye Chuan lifted the lid of the pot, and the rich duck fragrance spread everywhere.

When Ye Chui smoked the roast duck meat on the charcoal fire before, the taste was quite attractive, but the temptation was not different from the smoked duck that Dong Qian had made before. But at this time, after being brine prepared by Ye Chui for ten minutes, the taste of the spices reacted with the duck meat, and the aroma stimulated was indescribable and tempting and delicious.

Dong Youyou immediately exclaimed: "No, it's just that I cooked it in the pot for ten minutes. Why did the taste change so much?"

"This is the reason for all kinds of spices, right?" Dong Qian said as if she understood something. "Jiang just picked each taste carefully, which made the taste of duck meat change so much. Every spice is essential for this taste."

"The peppercorns are so accurate, they are not so amazing, right?" Dong Youyou said with a look of surprise.

Dong Qian's expression moved slightly and looked at Ye Chui. What level should she understand the spices to achieve so that she can use the peppercorns accurately to the grains...

At this moment, Dong Qian's admiration for Ye Chui had turned into a kind of awe. Is this young man a god?

In fact, the reason why Ye Chui was able to get the title of God of Cookery in his lifetime is because he is extremely proficient in cooking, which makes people feel speechless...

After suffocating the brine for ten minutes on low heat, the heat will become smaller and continue to simmer for about half an hour.

Now, the duck meat can be released from the pot. Carefully put the cooked duck meat on the chopping board. Just look at the duck meat yellow all over the body, oily and fragrant, making people feel like they are enjoyable. Ye Chu took a plate, cut the whole duck meat with a knife, cut it into strips and placed it on the plate.

This inaction duck was completed here.

Dong Youyou couldn't wait to pick up a piece with chopsticks, put it into her mouth, and taste it carefully. The expression on her face changed: "It's really delicious..."

After saying this, she hurriedly shut up and looked at Dong Qian with a little embarrassed look. What she said was too delicious. It was obviously comparing Dong Qian's smoked duck, so she couldn't help but say it.

Dong Qian smiled, disregarded her concern, picked up the chopsticks and picked it up and put it in her mouth to taste it. Then she nodded and said, "This dish is somewhat similar to the dish I developed, but the taste is much better than my smoked duck... It turns out that this dish is going to be made."

"That's right, you have also seen the steps just now. You can follow this step in the future." Ye Chui said with a smile.

Dong Qian was stunned: "This is your recipe, I can't continue to make this dish."

"Haha, anyway, this dish is sold with sugarcane crispy duck, so just treat it as a work of our collaboration." Ye Chui smiled. This dish is used for money and is of great benefit to Ye Chui. Of course, he would not deliberately reject such good things.

"Oh well……"

Dong Qian nodded, and suddenly felt very glad that she chose to join Ye Chui's hotel. She didn't value money, but her ultimate pursuit of cooking skills was what she cared most. With Ye Chui, her cooking skills will definitely improve by leaps and bounds!

"It's dark. You two came to the hotel just after getting off the plane. You must have not eaten yet, right?" Ye Chui smiled and picked up the plate of Wuwei Ban Duck. "This dish can be used as dinner. Let's go outside the kitchen."

Dong Qian and Dong Youyou then followed Ye Chui to the lobby outside.

The smoked duck that Dong Qian made before was given to the waiters such as Pan Qingguo. Several waiters ate a delicious dinner with rice, but just after dinner, they saw Ye Chui walking out with Wuwei Ban Duck. The eyes of the few people were immediately attracted.

Although Ye Chu's Wuwei Ban Duck is very similar to the smoked duck made by Dong Qian, the attraction seems to be even better than Dong Qian...

Working in a hotel, I naturally get used to all kinds of delicious food and should have a certain resistance to delicious food. However, Pan Qingguo and others found that after Ye Chui came to the hotel, their appetite was still hung up again and again...

At the dining table, Ye Chui and Dong Youyou and Dong Qian were about to have dinner, but the sound of Han Yuyan suddenly came into the hotel.

During this period, Han Yuyan has been following Mr. Han, but she would come to the hotel to check it out almost every day. Most of the time she spent looking at how the hotel was decorated. Sometimes she also wanted to bring some delicious food made by Ye Chui to Mr. Han.

But what is important about her coming to find Ye Chui today—

"Master, Master! I brought something good. Grandpa told me that I would hand it over to you in person..." (To be continued)
