263. Eat meat in big mouth and drink wine in small mouth
After taking out what he needed, Li Xiao began to explain the second dish:
"The following dish is even simpler. It only requires two kinds of enoki mushrooms and fat beef."
"Wash the enoki mushrooms with clean water and cut off the roots. The roots must be removed because a certain amount of pesticides and fertilizers are used when growing enoki mushrooms."
"These pesticides and chemical fertilizers cannot be completely absorbed and decomposed by Enoki mushrooms. The place where these harmful ingredients accumulate the most is the roots of Enoki mushrooms."
"If we don't remove the roots, we will eat a lot of harmful substances into our stomachs."
"In addition, in order to increase the weight of the enoki mushrooms, some merchants may cut into the enoki mushrooms with culture medium close to the bottom. If we don't cut off the roots, we may eat the culture medium at these components.
"
You must first display the processed enoki mushrooms in front of everyone. At this time, the enoki mushrooms have been washed, their heads removed, and they have been scattered by Li Xiao with his fingers.
The enoki mushrooms that were originally a neat mass have now become several separate ones.
"After separating all the enoki mushrooms, we can now roll them back together, pick up a piece of fat cow, pick up about 10 enoki mushrooms, and use the fat cow to roll the enoki mushrooms inside."
"Of course, if you like to eat enoki mushrooms, you can put more. If you like to eat meat, you can put a few less. Of course, too few will not work. If there are too few enoki mushrooms, the enoki mushroom fat beef roll will be loose and unsightly."
After saying this, the first finished product was displayed in front of everyone. The waist of the enoki mushroom was wrapped with a piece of fat beef slice with a pretty pattern.
He turned the rolled enoki mushroom and beef roll in a circle and showed the front and back to the audience in the live broadcast room. After all, although the method was very simple, he was still worried that some viewers wouldn't be able to learn it.
Studio.
"Hey, why does the anchor keep turning the fat beef roll around? What does this mean?"
"Can't you see this? The anchor wants you to see what the finished product will look like. I'm afraid you won't be able to learn it."
"This dish really only requires skill. It's very simple. I have decided to try this dish tomorrow. If it works, I will have a chance to show off my skills on the night of New Year's Eve."
"By the way, don't you need to stick something like a toothpick into this thing? Won't it fall apart easily?"
.......
After Li Xiao showed it again, he also noticed the audience's conversation, but he did not answer directly. Instead, he put the rolled beef enoki mushrooms aside, and then kept moving his hands and feet rapidly, and soon a box of a pound of fat was
The cow was all rolled up by him.
Only then did he turn to the refrigerator and take out three red peppers.
After washing the red peppers, he said:
"I just saw someone saying that rolling it like this will unravel. This is true. If we put it in the pot directly like this and then flip it, the fat beef rolls rolled up on the outside will easily unravel."
“I just saw some audience members saying that it is indeed okay to use toothpicks, but considering that there will be old people and children at the New Year’s Eve dinner, I am worried that the old people and children will not pay attention and eat the toothpicks, which will be troublesome.
.”
"So, I thought of another way."
As he spoke, Li Xiao cut all the red peppers on his hands into small red rings. The rings were very thin and thin, about the thickness of a coin.
He displayed the thin slices of red pepper in front of everyone and said:
"We can put this red pepper ring on the beef roll with enoki mushrooms, so that the beef roll will not fall apart."
"Of course, because I had already planned it, I bought large red peppers. You must choose the right size. Don't buy peppers that are too small to fit into the fat beef roll, which will cause trouble."
Studio
"Hey, it looks pretty good after I put it on."
"What kind of sarcastic words does the anchor say?"
"Are the anchors thinking that the supervisor has already taken annual leave, so he has nothing to fear?"
.....
He put all the red plastic rings on the fat beef roll. He put two rings on each fat beef roll. After all, safety came first. If one of them was worn, there was another one that could make up for it.
After processing, Li Xiao began to prepare the sauce, which was also very easy to handle.
"This is the fat beef roll-style teriyaki sauce flavor we made. The seasonings we need to use are salt, sugar, soy sauce and a little oyster sauce. If you like it sweet, you can add a little more sugar at the end.
The warm water helps all the seasonings blend together.”
Li Xiao added various seasonings into the bowl while introducing, and then stirred evenly with a spoon.
Taking out a new pan, Li Xiao chose a slightly smaller pan this time. After all, the portion was smaller this time, so there is an appropriate bonus for cooking in a pot of the right size.
He spread the beef rolls neatly on the pan, poured a thin layer of fat along the edges of the pan, and then turned on the heat.
The orange flame slowly burned the pan made of pig iron, and as the temperature of the pan slowly increased, the sizzling sound continued to sound from the pan.
The rich aroma of fattened beef, accompanied by the sound, began to permeate the open kitchen space.
"Both fat beef and enoki mushrooms are very easy to cook, so when we smell the aroma of the fat beef, we can use chopsticks to gently lift up one of the fat beef rolls to see if the back of the fat beef roll is
It’s already turning brown.”
"When this happens, you can quickly turn the fat beef roll over."
"When the other side is also fried and fragrant, use the same method to check whether it has been fried. After frying, we can pour the sauce we just prepared into the pan, finally cover the pot and turn the heat to the maximum.
Wait until the juice in the pot has converged and you can take it out of the pot."
While talking, Li Xiao had completed all the steps and closed the lid of the pot.
At the same time, the aroma of lamb chops came from the other side of the kitchen, but the sealing effect of the oven was too good, although there was still a little smell coming out of the heat dissipation vent.
But since the aroma of the snowflake beef here is stronger, I just covered up the smell of the lamb chops. Now that I put the lid on the pot, I can finally smell the aroma of the lamb chops.
The taste of lamb chops is very complex, because it is covered with a lot of spices, and the spices are roasted at high temperature and give off an attractive aroma.
I walked to the front of the oven and looked through the transparent porthole. The lamb chops were sizzling with oil under the high temperature.
The originally green vanilla began to turn golden yellow, and wisps of white smoke emerged from the tin foil, and then were dispersed by the internal circulation of the oven, and rushed out of the oven along with the heat dissipation exhaust.
I looked down at the time on the oven and saw there were three minutes left.
The time is just right, when the lamb chops here are ready, the beef rolls on the other side are also coming out of the pan.
Then Li Xiao looked towards the lawn outside the villa, where the bonfire he had set up outside was burning brightly.
The wood on the iron frame was just bought by Li Xiao, and the iron frame was a barbecue grill that Li Xiao rummaged out from the warehouse. However, Li Xiao did not install the 4 legs of the barbecue grill, so it became
A charcoal stove that can hold a large amount of wood.
The reason why Li Xiao bought a large bundle of square and long strips of wood was because the TV next to the display rack at Sam's Supermarket showed the use of these woods. The effect was so dreamy, it was like watching a movie.
Feel.
Li Xiao didn't know which string he had failed to set up, so he bought it directly. However, after buying it, he felt a little distressed. After all, a large bundle of wood cost 38 yuan.
There are only twelve pieces in a bundle of wood, which means that a piece of wood as thick as an arm costs more than three yuan, which is a bit expensive. Fortunately, Li Xiao is different from the past. After all, although he has money, he still feels a little distressed subconsciously.
But the feeling of distress quickly disappeared without a trace.
The inside of the wood didn't seem to be completely dry, so after it was boiled, there was a faint crackling sound from the wood from time to time.
A few flying sparks ejected from the red-hot wood like meteors, piercing the night sky.
At this time, Li Xiao was carrying a portable camera, originally to facilitate the audience to watch how he made the dishes, but now it happened to allow the audience in the live broadcast room to see a beautiful scene.
"I'll go, it's such a beautiful yard."
"Although there is only a lawn and a tree in the yard, having such a bonfire inside is really amazing."
"But I will bring rice and vegetables over right now to spend the night with you."
[XXXXX has been banned for 24 hours.]
"The sister upstairs is really persistent, but the anchor's girlfriend seems to be merciful. Didn't she say she would be permanently banned before? Why are you so merciless now and only banned for 24 hours?"
"Isn't this courtyard so comfortable? The host has a courtyard like this in the city center. I am so envious that I am autistic and separated."
"In the winter, you can gather next to a warm bonfire, eating lamb chops, and feel warm all over. In the summer, you can eat ice-cold watermelon and beer, and watch your children having fun in the garden. Then you will really have no regrets in life."
"Actually, this kind of life is very easy. It is still like this in many rural areas now. Of course, the prerequisite is that you must be able to endure loneliness."
...
Li Xiao was also stunned by the scene in front of him, until the oven beeped to indicate that the time was up.
He quickly came to his senses and hurriedly ran to the stove to take a look at his beef-rolled enoki mushrooms. Fortunately, the time of both parties was almost the same.
So after the oven countdown ended, there was no burning on this side.
Nervously wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he was secretly afraid. Fortunately, there was a countdown reminder on the oven, otherwise he would have overturned while cooking this time.
What a great deal of fun it would be if the fat cow was burnt due to distraction.
He knows that there are many black men waiting for his dirty information. He has been showing off his talents, but he accidentally overturned while making such a simple dish.
They can hype this kind of thing over and over for months. When the video evidence is in hand, how can ordinary viewers know that you didn't control the heat because you were distracted?
After all, today's self-media promoters will only push things they want to tell you. Once you use Chunqiu's writing method, you will not know the truth at all.
Li Xiao put the fat beef rolls on the plate one by one and arranged them into a nice round shape. The finished product was quite good.
"This fat beef roll with enoki mushrooms is made just like this. The finished product is very decent. It is also a good dish for New Year's Eve dinner. It is not only beautiful but also delicious."
As he spoke, he put on anti-scalding gloves and took out the plate of golden-brown vanilla lamb chops from the oven.
Holding the fat beef roll in the left hand and the vanilla lamb chop in the right hand, I moved it to my left hand to smell the aroma of the fat beef roll, and then moved it to my right hand to smell the strong aroma of the vanilla lamb chop and the rich aroma of mutton fat.
.
Placing two plates of food with an attractive aroma on the wrought iron table on the grass, Li Xiao glanced at the hot bonfire and then at the food on the table, but he always felt that something was missing.
After thinking for a while, Li Xiao immediately figured out, how can there be meat without wine? It just so happened that he not only bought Maotai but also bought a few bottles of foreign wine.
I walked to the small bar next to the kitchen and picked out the bottle of white rum I needed, and also took lemon and mint from the refrigerator.
Li Xiao didn't buy soda water and syrup because he didn't expect that he would suddenly want to mix drinks.
But coincidentally, he bought something else, which was Sprite, a very versatile drink.
That can make some less expensive wines more drinkable, and can directly replace the functions of soda water and syrup.
Although he does not have any bartending skills, for him who has mastered many cooking skills, it may not be possible to make some difficult cocktails, but it is too easy to make a simple cocktail like Mojito.
.
Put the lemon slices and mint leaves into the cup, crush them with a rolling pin, pour in a few ice cubes, then pour in the white rum, and finally pour in the frozen Sprite, stir gently with a spoon, and you will have a simple version of mint mozzarella.
Guito is done.
I took a small sip and found that the wine taste was very light because Li Xiao didn't put too much white rum in it.
The refreshing aroma of mint and lemon is very strong, because the Sprite is mixed with the light wine flavor and it is very comfortable to enter the throat, and the sweetness is very refreshing.
Sit in the garden with a glass of wine and watch the crackling fire.
"It's so comfortable. It's nice to cook a meal at home once in a while. It doesn't matter if you eat alone without anyone around. It's quiet enough and free enough."
"Okay, after working for an hour, I'm going to eat."
As he spoke, he picked up a small piece of lamb chop.
The lamb chops are brought close to the tip of the nose, and the rich vanilla flavor mixed with various spices penetrates the nasal cavity, especially the basil leaves that have been roasted at high temperature.
The strong fragrance inside the leaves is forced out by the high temperature, and the smell is very special, a bit like a mixture of lemon leaves and mulberry. It will feel a little pungent at first, but after smelling it a few times, it will become very addictive.
When you bite into it, you can see that the spices have been roasted until they are crispy. The lamb chops have been fried on the pan for two minutes, so the outside of the lamb chops has a hard and crispy shell that can protect the meat juice from losing.
So the moment Li Xiao bit into the mutton chop, the juice from the mutton chop rushed into his throat. He closed his eyes in enjoyment and felt the feeling between his tongue, lips and teeth.
"No joke, this lamb chop is really amazing. If there are 100 points, I can give myself 90 points. The remaining 10 points are entirely due to the material problem. If I can find better lamb and spices, then this
I can give 99 points to a piece of steak, and the remaining one point is to give myself room for improvement."
"The shell of the lamb chops has become charred and fragrant. Mixed with those golden spices, once it enters the mouth, the rich flavor of spices and the charred mutton are so satisfying."
"And because the temperature I adjusted when baking was not very high, only 150 degrees, plus I fried both sides of the lamb chops in advance."
"So the gravy inside has not evaporated due to the high temperature. There is still a lot of gravy inside. Because the mutton is not very old, it tastes very fresh and tender. It does not feel sticky at all. The fiber is very thin.
And it doesn’t have any sheepish smell, which is really great.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the originally small mutton chop was eaten into his stomach in two or three bites.
After taking a bite of the piping hot lamb chops, my whole body began to warm up, and I took another sip of the cold mojit.
The feeling of the two worlds of ice and fire is so refreshing. The fat-flavored lamb chops and the fresh and refreshing mojito form two natural contrasts.
The fresh and delicious mojit will instantly eliminate all the greasiness in your mouth.
He let out a long, white breath, and reached out to the second mutton chop. Not that he was bragging, but this mutton chop was really well done.
Although the method is very simple, since the lamb is very fresh, you only need to make it briefly to get a pretty good grilled lamb chop.
After finishing the second piece of lamb chop, Li Xiao picked up his chopsticks and looked to the other side, where he saw the round fat beef rolls with enoki mushrooms.
Since the iron table was very close to the bonfire, Li Xiao could feel the constant heat radiating from the bonfire.
Because the wooden blocks purchased from Sam's Supermarket were all square and long, Li Xiao easily built them into a wooden well tower structure.
The structure of the so-called wooden well tower is actually very simple. Two symmetrical wooden bars are placed on each floor. The wooden bars on the next layer are perpendicular to the wooden bars on the upper layer. The wooden bars on the lower layer are wider and the wooden bars on the upper layer are narrow.
Such a structure allows the air to circulate well, and the flame can burn very transparently from the inside to the outside or from top to bottom. You only need to ignite the bottom layer of wood, and the flame will slowly burn upward.
This will not only burn well, but also the fire will burn for a long time, which is very suitable for use in wild survival.
Due to its burning characteristics, it is very suitable for lighting during night vigils. As long as certain skills are used when building a wooden well tower, a wooden well tower can burn for more than 7 to 9 hours.
However, Li Xiao did not do this to burn for a long time, so he poured a little alcohol on the upper wood to speed up the burning of the upper wood.
