Li Xiao took a late nap and slowly opened his eyes until about eight o'clock in the morning. The sun outside was very dazzling, shining in through the window of the RV.
Tuanzi on the side had long since woken up, sitting upright on the bed, staring at Li Xiao with his big dark eyes, his chubby paws touching his round belly, and sticking out his tongue as if to hint something.
Li Xiao was well aware of the habit of dumplings, which meant that there was no food in their stomachs. He quickly got up from the bed, went to the car refrigerator, opened it, and found that it was empty, with nothing left in it.
"It's only been a few days and the refrigerator is empty?" Li Xiao touched his eyes, a little unconvinced.
After all, the last time I went to the supermarket was a few days ago. At that time, in order to save rations for dumplings, I bought a week's worth of rations, which amounted to more than 30 kilograms of bamboo shoots. Only a few days later, they were all finished?
After closing the car refrigerator, Li Xiao washed up briefly, checked the time, changed her outfit and got out of the car directly, and went to the supermarket to buy food for the dumplings.
It's now past eight o'clock in the morning, and the poisonous sun outside has already come out, shining on people's bodies and making them extremely hot.
Li Xiao went to the supermarket where he made his last purchase and bought a lot of bamboo shoots, which attracted the attention of the people around him.
Just after paying the bill, Li Xiao suddenly felt that the sun was a bit strong today and didn't want to go sightseeing, so he went back and bought some ingredients, planning to cook for himself at noon.
Back in the RV, Li Xiao picked one or two big ones from the bamboo shoots and put them on Tuanzi's fleshy paws, pinched his fat face with his hands, and said with a smile: "You little guy, I'll give you something."
I bought it, I bought a little more this time, I think you can finish it in a few days."
Looking at the overflowing car refrigerator, Li Xiao felt helpless. It seemed that he had to find time to change to a larger car refrigerator.
After cleaning the RV, Li Xiao opened the door of the RV, ventilated the inside, and then opened the live broadcast room to chat with fans.
"Anchor, what time is it? Why are you still in the RV? Which attraction should we visit today? Are we almost finished visiting all the attractions in Zunyi?"
"The sun in Guizhou today is very fierce. If the anchor goes out to visit scenic spots, remember to wear sunscreen, otherwise your skin will suffer."
"We are going to visit Zunyi soon. Where do you plan to go next? Are you going to Liupanshui? I'll wait for you in Liupanshui."
...
Li Xiao leaned against the side of the RV, looking at the concern of the fans in the live broadcast room, and showed a kind smile.
Then he opened the travel app on his mobile phone and looked at the guide. It showed that he had visited all the famous tourist attractions in Zunyi, and the others were small tourist attractions without any representativeness.
For these scenic spots, Li Xiao automatically filters them out.
Moreover, most of the classic delicacies in Zunyi have been eaten once, and other non-representative ones will not be triggered by the system, so Li Xiao can only filter them out.
In this way, all the attractions and delicacies in Zunyi can be considered completed.
Li Xiao said to the fans in the live broadcast room: "I just took a look at the scenic spots and food in Zunyi. I have already checked in some representative food and scenic spots, so I plan to leave Zunyi and go somewhere else."
When fans learned that Li Xiao was leaving Zunyi and going somewhere else, they left messages on the barrage in the live broadcast room, asking Li Xiao to check in in his hometown.
"Anchor, come to Liupanshui, Guizhou. I have fresh rice tofu at my house. I will treat you to delicious food. The scenery of our Liupan Mountain is great."
"Anchor, don't listen to the nonsense upstairs. Jiangsu is a good place. Although you have checked in, you still drop by our place so that I can do my best to be a landlord."
"Come to Sichuan. I think Sichuan is better. The food here is amazing."
...
Li Xiao glanced at the barrage, and then said slowly: "Okay, you don't have to worry about where I'm going. I already have a sense of proportion in my mind. I plan to leave for Chongqing in the afternoon."
"So we still follow the old rules for lunch. We cook and eat it ourselves. Don't you want to watch the dumpling eating show? I will eat with it at noon today and let you see who eats faster."
Li Xiao's words caused a stir in the live broadcast room, and some fans in Chongqing were particularly excited.
These fans in Chongqing launched barrages in the live broadcast room.
"Anchor, are you sure you want to come to Chongqing? Then I'll wait for you in Chongqing. I'll take you to eat the authentic Jiugongge brine spicy hot pot, so that you can experience the most authentic Sichuan flavor."
"Guawazi upstairs, don't get me wrong. What is authentic Sichuan flavor? Chongqing is Chongqing, what does it have to do with Sichuan cuisine? We call it Chongqing flavor."
"Anchor, you are here and I will take you to eat spicy rabbit heads. The rabbits are so cute, why don't we have more? And they have to be spicy."
The fans in Chongqing were very hospitable and their enthusiasm made Li Xiao a little unbearable. He quickly said: "Okay, I will contact you when I arrive in Chongqing. Now I am going to start cooking."
In the blink of an eye, it was past 11 o'clock. Li Xiao was the only RV left in the parking area, and the rest were all gone.
Last time, the car girl secretly left her business card for Li Xiao and secretly stuffed it under the door of the RV. It is still in the small drawer.
Li Xiao bought a lot of ingredients from the supermarket in the district today. This lunch was the last meal in Zunyi, so naturally he had to eat more.
Thinking back to the Yaxi Huangjia beef that he ate yesterday, Li Xiao plans to review it today and personally teach everyone how to make the authentic Yaxi Huangjia beef.
In addition, Li Xiao also bought a fresh Wujiang fish and planned to steam one himself.
Fans were shocked when they saw these ingredients.
"Anchor, you don't want to cook Yaxi Huang's beef and steamed Wujiang fish in the live broadcast room, right? Didn't you just eat these yesterday? Why did you start cooking them yourself today?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "No need to ask, it is designated that the host fell in love with these two dishes, so he wanted to try how to make them himself. In this way, he can not only teach us, but also
Why not fill yourself with preserved fruits?"
"Wow, I'm a new fan. I just saw the title of the live broadcast room talking about cooking. Is this a live broadcast room for eating and broadcasting? How do you teach cooking?"
"Is the new person upstairs a girl? If it is a girl, my brother will patiently explain it to you. If it is a brother, please click "Follow" on the upper left corner and then exit the live broadcast room."
"Everyone, stop talking nonsense. These are two famous dishes in Zunyi. I have to learn them carefully."
Seeing the enthusiasm of the fans in the live broadcast room, Li Xiaodun was very excited. After all, he made it with his own hands to restore the taste of yesterday's meal, which was also a major challenge for him.
There is a saying that has been circulating in the food industry, that is, if different chefs cook the same dish, the taste will not be absolutely the same.
But Li Xiao believes in a saying, that is, the taste is different, but the level of appreciation is the same.
First of all, Li Xiao is going to cook Yaxi Huangjia beef. This dish uses local beef, which is what is called yellow beef outside.
This kind of beef itself has a very thick fat content and is covered with tendon meat. If it is not handled well, it will appear dry and not as refreshing as before.
Li Xiao's first evaluation of Yaxi Huangjia beef is that the beef is refreshing, and the second is the rich and layered taste.
For any ingredient, the first important thing is the texture in your mouth, followed by the taste.
After all, if it's just seasoning, it would probably be delicious if you take a pot of old stewed soup and stew it for leather shoes, but don't mention the taste of the ingredients themselves.
Therefore, Li Xiao has his own way of handling local beef. Although it is different from the store's, it can achieve the same effect.
He first put the beef into the car refrigerator, lowered the temperature and froze it for half an hour. When he took it out, there were a lot of crystals inside the beef and it was hard.
I saw Li Xiao saying to the water friends: "After the beef is frozen, the texture itself will be very clear. If you use a knife to cut it at this time, it will be cut very smoothly. The purpose of what I do is
This is to cut the local beef into thin slices so that it can be delicious in the subsequent steps."
Soon, Li Xiao cut all the frozen beef into thin slices and put it aside to let it defrost automatically.
At this time, Li Xiao took some dried chili peppers and soaked them in water. These chili peppers were just ordinary chili peppers, not the spicy chili peppers in the store.
While the meat was waking up, Li Xiao boiled a pot of brine, put some base flavor into it, then poured the soaked dried chilies into the brine and mixed it thoroughly.
Then take a spatula and stir it evenly in the pot. After the dried chilies have completely absorbed the aroma of the brine, pour it out and set it aside.
Next comes the crucial step, which is to remove the earthy smell from the beef meat and improve the taste of the beef to another level.
Li Xiao prepared some egg whites and put them in a bowl. The egg yolks were separated separately for other uses.
Next, pour some white powder, that is, starch, into the bowl, then pour a little rice wine, and mix it evenly. When the things in the bowl are mixed into a paste, put the thawed beef into it, and mix it evenly.
Coat the ground with paste and set aside.
Evenly coat each piece of beef with yellow paste, then heat up the pan, pour in a large amount of oil, wait until the oil temperature rises, directly put the battered beef into it and dry fry, remove it after touching it for a few seconds.
come out.
After repeated frying three times, Li Xiao poured out the oil in the pot, leaving some base oil, and then added onions, ginger, garlic and other spices to stir-fry over high heat until fragrant.
After completing this step, the pot was already fragrant. Then Li Xiao poured the braised dried chili directly into the pot and stir-fried over high heat until fragrant.
Taking advantage of the excitement, Li Xiao said to the live broadcast room.
"Except for onions, ginger, and garlic, don't add other ingredients to this spice, because the essence is in the dried chili peppers soaked in brine. Use high heat to stir-fry the juice out, and then proceed to the next step."
After Li Xiao fried it for a few minutes, almost all the brine in the dried chili peppers was fried out, making them water-soaked.
At this time, Li Xiao looked at the live broadcast room and said: "Brothers, it's almost done until it looks like this. At this time, you can pour the awakened beef in. Remember, don't stew it for too long.
As long as the flavor of the brine is fully integrated with the beef, it's ready to be cooked."
"This Yaxi Huang's beef is about texture, followed by taste. The most important thing is not to let the beef be too old. As long as you do this, this dish will be more than half successful."
"As for the taste, you can adjust it according to your own preferences. The most important thing about this dish is the texture of the beef. Even if you make it sweet, as long as the texture of the beef is good, then the dish can be considered a success.
"
Li Xiao emphasized several tastes in succession, causing fans to quickly write down the notes for fear of missing this most important point.
The beef had been simmering in the pot for five or six minutes. Li Xiao opened the lid of the pot, and an aroma suddenly wafted out, making him smack his tongue.
"This is such a familiar smell."
Li Xiao quickly poured the beef out of the pot. When it was taken out of the pot, he poured a layer of chili oil on it, then poured it into a large bowl, heated the pot and heated the oil until it was 90% hot, then poured it on top.
Fragrant and delicious.
There is both the aroma of chili pepper and the aroma of cooked oil, which instantly brings the taste of this bowl of Yaxi Huangjia beef to its peak.
Fans in the live broadcast room saw this and launched barrages one after another.
"666, I didn't expect the host's cooking skills to be so good. I just ate it yesterday and made it today. Judging from the appearance, it's even more appetizing than what I saw in the store yesterday."
"Yesterday's was in the store. In addition to beef, there are many side dishes. You can put more beef in it if you make it yourself. It will taste better. If not, I will make it again now."
"Anchor, I remember what you did just now. Can I ask, what kind of chili oil was used to drizzle the oil when it was cooked? Was it bought from the market or prepared by yourself?"
...
Li Xiao picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks and tasted it briefly. The texture was indeed very smooth, and it was even more refreshing than what he had eaten yesterday. The most important thing was that it was very delicious.
The ingredients for the beef were prepared by himself, and they were somewhat different from what he had eaten yesterday. Not only that, even the side dishes were slightly adjusted.
Unexpectedly, the taste of the final product is also very unique. Although it cannot replicate the taste of yesterday, the taste of the beef I made is not bad, and I can enjoy the beef.
For this reason, Li Xiao specially made a big pot of rice just for the last soup. This is the soul of eating this dish.
Li Xiao glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room and said: "The oil poured out of the pot at the end is special chili oil, which is a mixture of several chili oils. Then put a little sesame oil in it, so it will be very delicious."
The layered texture, combined with the braised dried chili peppers, will bring a whole new experience to this bowl of beef.”
