Chapter 821: Xia Yu's Cottage (Part 2)
coincide?
If Xia Yu was there, he would definitely say to Fan Jiaorou with a smile—
It's no coincidence!
Originally, Fan Jiaorou's spice formula made him have great interest in researching the ancient material "fermented black beans". Although he failed to thoroughly understand Fan Jiaorou's formula, using Xia Yu's spice skills, is it difficult to create a spice and medicinal recipe on the spot with Xia Yu's spice skills?
There is nothing at all right.
Just so what Mrs. Tang said was a way to point out Xia Yu’s creative ideas.
Old Mrs. Tang said she had a bad appetite and had no appetite.
The three judges on the stage are also hard to boost their appetite? The hunting process has reached the third round. In recent days, how many bad works have the judges tasted? The mediocre works, their tongues and taste have long been bombarded and smashed, and they are exhausted, but because the work is not too obvious.
Actually, there is not much difference between food reviewers and yellow appraisers. They are both art appraisers. However, if you let the veteran driver who read tens of millions of movies work continuously for a few days and then go home, do you still have the leisure to open the hard drive?
So Xia Yu felt that, well, it is necessary for the on-stage judges to rebuild their strength and find themselves.
Speaking of rebuilding the spirit and boosting appetite, it is a coincidence that the "fermented black beans" that can be used for both edible and medicinal medicine has the effect of harmonizing the stomach and digesting food.
Moreover, the abundant aroma of fermented black beans acts on food, just like a ecstasy medicine that seduces desire, which can greatly enhance the taster's appetite.
So based on the "fermented black beans" material, Xia Yu naturally easily finalized this round of recipes-
Tempeh sea bass!
More precisely, it is the fermented black bean medicinal sea bass!
Hello, here, Xia Yu really wants to say, don’t fix the impression of “fermented black beans” on Lao Ganma, it’s just a hot sauce with fermented black beans.
Yellow paper bags were uncovered.
"Ganam, cinnamon, white cardamom."
“Star anise, lilac, Sanna.”
"The last two flavors are fermented black beans and green onion!"
After counting it down, there are 8 kinds of materials. If Fan Jiaorou hears Xia Yu's contempt to herself, she will definitely cry out that Fan's daughter has been copied.
Uh, copycat?
In fact, the comparison between Xia Yu's medicinal recipe for fermented black beans and Fan's only overlaps with the materials of "spicy white" and "fermented black beans". The copycat statement is too exaggerated.
As for why these 8 ingredients are used to combine them with "fermented black beans"...
Shh.
The truth will eventually be revealed, but not now.
Since it is medicinal sea bass, there must be medicinal methods.
Xia Yu did not rush to catch fish and slaughter them, but took out all the medicinal materials and placed them on the kitchen counter. For example, the old Chinese doctor in the pharmacy took the appropriate amount and mixed each medicinal material.
The amount of "fermented black beans" is the largest, and the whole package is used. What you need to pay special attention to at this step is the amount of sweet beans and cloves.
You should know that Gansu is a braised dish. The spices often used in spicy hotpot soup bases are also Chinese medicinal materials. They have a spicy smell and are similar to turpentine oil. Because the smell is too strong and the characteristics are prominent, the amount of each spice formula is generally not more than 5 grams, otherwise the spice formula will be imbalanced.
Similarly, lilac has a strong fragrance and can even have a thorny texture when used too much, so the dosage should be used less, about 1 to 2 grams, and even if the first half of the gram of spice formula will collapse.
It took about 5 minutes to carefully balance the faint spice gold scale in my mind.
The golden and perfect cooking technique [spicy inequality] is always useful quietly.
"alright!"
Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes narrowed slightly, put a medicine jar on the workbench on the stove, poured it in clean water, and then put all the selected medicinal materials into a plain gauze bag. The bag was tightened and the entire cloth bag was thrown into the medicine jar.
Click!
Close the lid and ignite.
This step, when it comes to the shooting camera, is undoubtedly a decoction soup!
At this point, Xia Yu was not in a hurry to slaughter the perch, stood in front of the stove with his arms in his arms, closed his eyes gently, and wandered around.
Reviewing station.
Li Han and Wang Gong started discussing.
"Do you decoct the medicine soup first, and then use the medicine soup to make fish?"
"I don't think it's fish soup!"
Wei Qinglian, who was sitting in the main seat, felt unstable.
Medicinal sea bass formed around fermented black beans?
She also knew in her heart that in the Chinese world, many spices are actually used together with medicine and food, and "fermented black beans" is one of the representatives.
So, that kid's spice attainment can almost be perfectly equated with the level of medicinal food.
"Extending from the field of spices to the field of medicinal food, his abilities are simply invincible!" Wei Qinglian's eyes were filled with fear, and she felt a little scared, let alone Ye Feizhou, whom she regarded as a junior.
"If possible, Feizhou would better not compete with him. He would take the initiative to retreat and lie on firewood and taste gall for several years. There is still hope of turning the tables!" Wei Qinglian sighed.
Before I knew it, half an hour passed.
In the venue, bursts of fresh fragrance began to spread. The cooking process of the hundreds of young girls in the first audition was in full swing except Xia Yu.
Because you can hunt talents from all over the country, it is foreseeable that the sea bass food presented later will definitely collect eight major cuisines.
“Hu, Hu…”
The air flow continued to emerge from the mouth of the medicine pot.
Slap, Xia Yu slowly opened his eyes and reached out his hand, and turned off the stove valve, "It's OK!"
He smelled the smell of medicinal materials near the kitchen counter and nodded, "The medicinal properties have been completely boiled out, so let's take the second step!"
Swish.
A flash of sword light, one, two, three...
A total of 6 palm-sized perch were taken out by Xia Yu in the blink of an eye and placed on the chopping board.
The body structure of Songjiang perch is more special than that of ordinary perch. It is rumored that it has four gills, also known as four gills. In fact, Xia Yu just got free and went to the chef's space to practice slaughter thousands of them. It was found that this was not the case.
So, Xia Yu in the camera was brave enough to slaughter fish. With a wave of the knife, the six bass scales flew away. With another wave, the fish was opened and the gills and internal organs were all ready to be taken out.
"Why do he often slaughter Songjiang perch? He's so skillful!" A girl exclaimed next door.
When Xia Yu heard this, he felt secretly happy.
If there is a fish killing achievement, then after practicing in space, he should unlock the achievement of a "bass butcher".
In a blink of an eye, the 6 bass was processed.
Next, pickle!
A pool of salt was poured out of the palm of the salt jar, just like kneading facial cleanser. Xia Yu held it with his palms, and his movements suddenly became gentle. Then he evenly applied the rubbed salt to both sides of the fish body. Perhaps it was tingling with salt. The bass, which had been taken out of the internal organs, was actually on the chopping board, opening the fish's mouth wide, swallowing and panting.
Sprinkle cooking wine and chopped ginger and marinate for 10 minutes.
Finally, take two sand pots, pour each sand pot into the medicinal soup that had been boiled for half an hour before, mix it with clean water, and place 6 palm-sized sea bass in two sand pots.
"Done!"
About half an hour later, Xia Yu looked up at the timer in the venue.
It's about half an hour before the end of the cooking process.
However, even though the audition was coming to an end, the jury was still empty, and no contestant submitted his work in advance.
What's going on?
Xia Yu turned off the stove valve and looked around. The expression on his face suddenly became subtle.
Many contestants have stopped cooking, and there are containers containing food in front of them, but they have not submitted them to the judge for tasting. Instead, they are looking at the No. 1 kitchen counter, which is to look at themselves...
"Is this what I mean to ask me to come first? OK OK OK OK OK You will lose first. I'm waiting and watching the situation, so I'll serve the food first-"
The sand pot is installed on the tray.
Without pause, Xia Yu stepped all the way to the reviewing table.
"Please use—"
A tray fell steadily on the table, and the soup in the sand pot didn't ripple, clear and calm.
Chapter completed!
