"This shows that this is a good piece of beef. If it is stale beef, it will not spring back quickly if you press it like this."
Li Xiao looked at the status of the beef and explained it to the fans.
At this point you can basically be sure that this is a very fresh piece of beef.
And the location is also very suitable.
As expected of the owner of a beef stall, the choice of meat is really good.
This position is just right for making soup.
"Boss, bring me some butter and some beef bones. Since we are making soup, it would be better to put some beef bones in."
"In this case, the soup will be more fragrant."
After Li Xiao finished speaking, the boss gave birth to a thumb again.
"I didn't expect that young man, you look so young, but you can actually cook."
"There are not many young people who can cook these days, but there are many people of our generation who can cook."
"Today's generation is spoiled."
As the boss said this, he took out some more beef bones, skin-on beef, and a little butter.
"Actually, many children now know how to cook. After all, material conditions are better now, so it is normal for children to rarely cook."
Li Xiao took the beef in his hand and looked at it. After confirming that the beef was good, he weighed it and negotiated the price. The boss saw that he was so knowledgeable and good-looking, so he was very happy to give it to Li Xiao.
price.
After all, it was the opening business today, and the business went very smoothly.
Both of them were very happy.
The next step is to buy other seasonings.
It was very simple to buy side dishes and seasonings. After buying them, Li Xiao and Lao Wang carried the dishes back to Lao Wang's restaurant.
After all, Li Xiao only has an RV here, so he occasionally needs to borrow Lao Wang's kitchen.
After that, we still need to make dried ham with a small hammer. Although we can cook in an RV, it is not feasible to use that to bake dried ham.
Ganba must still be made using fire and oven.
It's a bit dangerous to make a fire and grill yourself, so I still have to borrow Lao Wang's kitchen.
Fortunately, Lao Wang's family didn't mind either. Li Xiao and Lao Wang carried the ingredients to the kitchen.
There are not many customers today, not to mention it is not meal time, so there are not many people in the restaurant.
Li Xiao and Lao Wang gathered the ingredients in the kitchen and then started making them.
The method of making Dai-style beef steak is actually very simple.
"Have you all learned the method I just taught you about buying beef? If you do, you can go buy beef."
"As for the fans who bought the beef, we can start cooking now."
"To make Dai-style steak, we'd better use fire."
"Food made with fire will always taste slightly better than food made with electricity, so if you have the conditions, it is best to use fire to cook the steak."
"Then everyone prepares a pot. Next, don't forget to clean the beef."
"Put water in the pot, put the washed beef in, and put the sliced ginger into the pot."
"Then just cover it and simmer until it's cooked."
"Isn't it very simple?"
Li Xiao and Lao Wang set up the stove while talking, then got a big pot, added water to the pot, and put the washed beef in.
Netizens on the barrage spoke one after another.
"I think the method taught by the anchor is very useful. I really picked out very fresh beef."
"At least it's much fresher than the beef I bought myself before."
"The beef I picked out today is much more pleasing to my eyes than before."
"Me too, me too, I picked a very fresh piece of beef today, and my mother even praised me."
"It's rare that I got up so early today and actually had the intention to go to the vegetable market to buy groceries with the anchor. I must make something delicious today. If I don't make it, I will be sorry for getting up early."
"I also got up very early, followed the anchor to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and then picked the freshest beef in the vegetable market. You don't know the way the boss looked at me just now..."
"What? What do you mean the boss looks at you?"
"Because I was still very young. I was born after 2000. The way my boss looked at me at that time, he admired me so much that he almost fired me. I was counting my thumbs. Do you know? Because I am so young, but I can still
He knows how to choose a good piece of beef."
"The boss probably thought I had a lot of experience, but he didn't know that I learned all this from the anchor."
"Today is another day to learn more with the anchor, Ouye."
"Learn knowledge from the anchor and roll it up, classmates."
"Now these adults think we can't cook, right? Then I must do this today."
"Me too, me too, today I will show them my skills."
"I've already bought the groceries anyway, and cooking seems pretty easy. I think I'd better give it a try."
"I'm not sure, I can really do it."
"It's too easy to wash it and put it in the pot and cook it there."
"Don't forget to add ginger slices to the first one!"
"Adding ginger slices can make this dish taste more fragrant."
"So the anchor just throws the soup there and doesn't care?"
"It turns out that Dai-style beef steak is so simple. The flavor depends on the final seasoning."
Put the washed beef, beef bones, butter, and beef tendons into a large pot, then add a little ginger slices and salt, and cook over high heat.
Li Xiao finished processing the beef, then closed the lid and put the beef soup there, ignoring it for the time being.
The preparation of this beef steak requires time and coordination. After a while, open the lid and wait for the fire to cook the beef until it is tender and tasty, and the dish is almost ready.
Next thing to make is another delicious dish.
That is Dai-flavor dried beef.
There are many ways to make dried beef, some use the drying method, and some use the roasting method.
Because today I want to cook it first and eat it first, so Li Xiao chose the roasting method.
It’s also very simple to make.
"Do you still remember the beef we bought before? I didn't put this piece into the pot just now. Do you know why?"
"That's right, because we have to use this piece of beef to make a delicacy, which is dried beef."
"First take out this piece of beef, and then remove the white fascia on it, which will affect the taste."
While introducing it to the fans in the live broadcast room, Li Xiao started processing the ingredients and removing the fascia from the beef.
The white fascia was picked out piece by piece, and then Li Xiao reached out and cut the piece of yellow beef into sections.
"Next, we'll cut this piece of yellow beef into long strips for later use, and then we can prepare the seasoning."
Li Xiao said while reaching for the seasoning.
You can see that he is holding some peppercorns, chili peppers, and salt in his hand.
There isn't much seasoning.
And it's very simple.
"Next, we prepare a pounding bucket, and then we put the Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, and salt we just held in our hands into it and mash it."
"After pouring it, we can take out these materials and apply them to the dried beef."
"You can add a little bit of MSG."
Li Xiao introduced it to the audience while wiping it.
The audience also took notes carefully.
"Then we just wait quietly for the dried beef to be marinated. The marinating time can be longer, because the longer the marinating time, the more flavorful the dried beef will be."
"Okay, now that the preparations are done, we can go out and play for a while."
"Next, let's take everyone to see the dumplings."
"If I don't take you to see dumplings, you'll probably have to complain again."
"After all, there are still many fans of dumplings, right?"
While Li Xiao was joking with fans, he led the audience in the live broadcast room out of the door.
In the morning, pandas are more active. When Li Xiao returned to the RV, he found that Tuanzi was up and playing by himself.
"Look, this is your precious dumpling. Look at his body."
"I even wonder if I made him eat too well and he gained weight."
The person on the barrage was most disgusted with Li Xiao saying such things, so he immediately started to retort.
"Anchor, what are you talking about? Tuanzi is not fat at all."
"Anchor, what are you talking about? How could our dumpling be fat? He is so cute."
"Don't worry, Tuanzi. Tuanzi is not fat at all. No matter how fat Tuanzi is, my sister will not dislike you."
"Today is also the day I met the cute dumplings. I'm so happy, haha."
"The dumplings are so cute, my heart has become cute."
"I praise Tuanzi every day, how cute he is."
"I think the main reason why I stay in the live broadcast room is to take a look at Tuanzi. How can Tuanzi be so cute?"
"Do you think the title of national treasure giant panda is just talk? If it weren't for its cuteness and because it is a species unique to our country, how could he become a national treasure?"
"What I said before is right, I will always be a die-hard fan of dumplings."
"Me too, me too."
Tuanzijian himself was being broadcast live, and he didn’t want to do business today, so he just lay down on the ground and left a mess.
However, many viewers still like to see his appearance.
What does Tuanzi look like? Everyone likes to see who makes him look cute.
Tuanzi yelled twice in dissatisfaction. Li Xiao understood the meaning of his words and told him to stop live broadcasting. He didn't want to open business today.
However, even if Li Xiao agrees, fans will not agree.
"Then they'll see what happens. Fans haven't seen you for a long time."
Li Xiao and Tuanzi discussed, "How about this? How about you show it to everyone and let you drink a bowl of milk at night?"
There's nothing that can't be solved with hard work.
For Tuanzi, there is nothing that can't be solved by a lot of milk.
Tuanzi shouted twice in protest.
Then Li Xiao said helplessly, "Then just two pots."
Tuanzi compromised.
Nothing is worth two basins of breast milk.
If there is anything in the world that cannot be solved with one bowl of milk, then two bowls of milk can't be solved.
Two pots are definitely enough.
Only then did Tuanzi get up from the ground and look cute at the audience in front of the screen.
The audience's hearts were melted by him.
The dumplings are too cute.
At this time, the barrage showed a large death scene of Ah Wei.
Because there is a joke called "Awei is dead".
It means "Ah, I'm dead".
Many netizens will sigh like this when they see something very cute. From then on, as long as many people say "Awei is dead" at the same time, some people will call this scene "Awei Crematorium."
However, it was obvious that this was the situation after Tuanzi appeared.
After taking the fans to watch the dumplings for a while, the dried beef was almost marinated.
It happened that Tuanzi was a little sleepy and wanted to sleep, so Li Xiao put him back in his nest and let him go to sleep.
Take the fans in the live broadcast room back to the kitchen of Lao Wang's restaurant.
The fire under the big pot of beef was still burning brightly.
The freshly marinated beef ganba raw materials are almost marinated.
Li Xiao picked up the beef and looked at it. He felt that it had tasted a little better and could start roasting.
So I added some charcoal and placed it under the barbecue grill.
That's right, the beef jerky we are going to make this time is slowly roasted over charcoal fire.
What should be noted here is that when baking, it must not be over high heat, but must be baked slowly over low heat.
The dried beef made in this way has a better taste.
"Look, we built a shelf here and put some charcoal fire underneath."
"You don't need to put a lot of charcoal fire, you just need to put some and maintain this temperature."
"Next we put the freshly marinated beef strips on top and grill them."
"During the baking process, we have to turn it over from time to time or add some charcoal fire."
"The roasting time is not necessarily certain. Anyway, I need to roast the beef very dry."
"If you don't like to eat it so dry, you can bake it for a while."
"like this."
When Li Xiao's rice is ready, turn on the charcoal fire, then put the beef strips on it and bake it.
Come over and turn over every now and then.
There is no need to brush oil on the beef when grilling it. You need to bake it slowly and dry it.
This process is very long, because the heat of the charcoal fire is not very high, but it will slowly steam away the moisture in the beef.
After roasting for about a day, the beef will be dry and ready to eat.
Put the dried beef in place. The beef that was stewed in the pot before has been stewed until it is soft and delicious.
At this time, you can proceed to the next step of seasoning.
It just so happened that lunch time was almost here.
Since Lao Wang planted a lot of mint at home, Li Xiao and Lao Wang decided to pick fresh mint instead of buying it in the market.
I followed Lao Wang to the vegetable garden. It was not so much a vegetable garden as a mint garden dedicated to growing mint.
Because of mint, as long as you put a little weight on it, it will slowly grow into a large area. Over time, only mint was planted in Lao Wang's small garden.
