Li Xiao secretly looked up at the old man with gray hair on his temples, and sighed softly. This is probably what love is.
I am willing to leave behind all my fame and fortune and leave my hometown for you.
I would like to use your and my names as matchmakers to accompany you here.
Be polite and courteous, get along with each other, support each other, and grow old together.
Li Xiao's face showed yearning, how great it would be if she could have such love.
Li Xiao looked at the 21 skewers of different shapes in the charcoal fire and nodded slightly. He was indeed the head chef of the barbecue department of "Niao Xi", a one-Michelin star roasted bird restaurant.
The other party's control over the heat is really good. Each skewer is a different part of the chicken, so the turning and flipping time is different.
Some are long, some are short, some need to be constantly brushed with oil, and some need to be placed in a place with a stronger flame.
After gaining proficiency in making roasted birds, Li Xiao can clearly know that every time the other party flips the food, it is at the optimal time, without looking at his watch or paying attention to the heat, with an error of less than 0.2 seconds.
Li Xiao secretly moved to the edge of the bar to prevent his live broadcast from affecting other people's meals.
He said to the live broadcast room to popularize science
"The so-called yakitori is said to have originated from Sakura Country, a vassal state of Han Dynasty, in the Edo period of the 17th century in Sakura Country.
At that time, the shogunate's ban on beef, chicken, etc. had not yet been lifted, and only the upper class could eat chicken, so chicken was considered a high-end food.
For this reason, the main items grilled in Yakiniku are chicken gizzards, chicken livers, chicken skins, chicken butts, etc., which are basically the garbage parts of the chicken.
As for the grilling method, it is very simple. Use small bamboo skewers to skewer four pieces of chicken. If you like the aroma of green onions, you can also add two pieces of green onions between the meat. Then apply sweet soy sauce or sprinkle with salt according to your personal preference.
The charcoal fire grills the front and back for a few minutes, and when the smoke fills up and the fragrance fills up, your index finger will naturally move.
At this time, the target audience was mainly the common people, and the image of the roasted bird shop was also that of cheap food, taking the route of popularization by the masses.
But later, the ban was lifted, and the types of roasted birds became more abundant.
Different from the barbecue in our Han country, the barbecue in Sakura country pays more attention to the original flavor of the ingredients.
With only the simplest seasoning, it is served with mashed radish and other seasonings on the side. Although the skin of the skewers is slightly burnt when you eat it, it is tender and juicy with a lingering fragrance in your mouth.
It is precisely because of this simple cooking and seasoning method that the roasted bird has high requirements for the freshness of the ingredients. Generally, the more sophisticated roasted bird houses will use fresh ingredients slaughtered on the same day, while supplies last."
The boss raised his head, but the movements of his hands did not stop, and a rare smile appeared on his lips.
"Oh, it's not bad, you actually understand it quite well?"
Li Xiao laughed. Although it was his first time to eat it, after gaining proficiency in making roasted birds, his knowledge may be even deeper than that of the Sakura Country chef who has been working for decades.
"I understand a little bit, I understand a little bit."
The boss chuckled lightly and returned his gaze to the dishes.
Li Xiao coughed lightly and continued the introduction.
"Due to the characteristics of Sakura Country BBQ, they will only use long charcoal, and long charcoal with a length of 20 to 25 centimeters is the best.
Not only is the temperature extremely high, but it can also absorb grease dripping from the fire without exploding open flames or sparks. The firepower is extremely stable and will not fluctuate, causing the food to become undercooked or scorched."
Li Xiao took a deep breath and recognized the carbon material used by the boss, his eyes were slightly stunned.
No wonder so many water friends recommend this restaurant. No wonder there are so many people sitting here at this embarrassing time when there should be no customers.
This boss is able to pay attention to detail even on the simplest carbon material, which is most ignored by most people.
Then the selection of ingredients may be more rigorous.
Li Xiao praised in the live broadcast room
"Sure enough, it is a store recommended by everyone. I have discovered that the charcoal used by the boss is actually lychee wood. Although lychee wood is very good, the branches of lychee trees are usually thick and branchy, so it is not suitable for most situations.
For long-term charcoal production, the cost remains high due to the high consumption rate.
However, in order to improve the quality of the roasted bird and make the charcoal aroma of the roasted bird fresh enough, the boss chose lychee long charcoal, which is expensive and almost impossible to buy on the market. It is indeed a store with good conscience. "
Li Xiaoyue said that he was becoming more and more interested in this whole roasted bird.
Soon, the boss handed the first plate of roasted bird to Li Xiao.
"Slow use."
Li Xiao slowly moved the camera, pointed it at the plate in front of him, and introduced to everyone
"The first dish is [roasted chicken heart], [roasted cartilage], and [roasted chicken skin]. Let me try the roasted chicken heart first."
Li Xiao picked up the bamboo skewer and gently bit off a piece of chicken heart that had been cut open.
As soon as your teeth bite through the outer skin of the chicken heart, the juice inside bursts out, which is very satisfying.
Li Xiao bit off another piece and chewed it carefully before having time to chat with the water friends in the live broadcast room.
"The marinated chicken heart is very special. The outer tissue of the heart is soft and waxy, the blood vessels and internal tissue are crisp, and the meat of the chicken heart is tender. The boss must have washed it with a lot of water before marinating to remove the blood and impurities.
So this chicken heart has no bloody smell at all.
In addition, I would like to tell everyone that the grilled bird served by the boss is grilled with sauce.
Different from salt roasting which only uses table salt and shichimi powder,
The flavor of sauce grilling is richer. Use the sauce prepared with sake, mirin, soy sauce, sugar, green onion, chicken fat, etc., and brush it on the grilled bird at the appropriate time, allowing the sauce to melt with the grilled bird under the charcoal fire.
as one body.
The sugar in it can produce a caramel reaction under an open flame, making the skin of the roasted bird golden and crispy."
The audience in the live broadcast room was complaining endlessly, although they did not see Li Xiao eating it.
But the camera kept looking at the two steaming skewers left on the plate, and with the sound of Li Xiao devouring the food off the camera, everyone knew that this Xiguan Grilled Bird must be very delicious.
