"Yes, I didn't even notice the broad beans were there. They were clearly minced meat, and generally Mapo tofu has minced meat in it," Wan Yu continued.
"Uncle Cheng, don't fool me because I don't know much. This is clearly the taste of minced meat." Luo Xiaosong felt that this expert must be deceiving him.
Cheng Zhongqing was not angry at all when his words were questioned by two young men.
He just said: "As a senior broad bean lover, I can tell the flavor of this minced meat is broad beans at the first bite. It's normal that you can't taste it. If you really don't believe it, ask Miss Li to see if I'm right.
wrong."
As Cheng Zhongqing finished speaking.
Everyone looked at Li Xiwu who was standing beside him.
Wan Yu asked in disbelief: "Teacher Li, is the minced meat in this Mapo Tofu really replaced by broad beans?"
Under everyone's expectant eyes, Li Xiwu nodded and said: "Yes."
Wan Yu was shocked: "I'll go! I've learned a lot. It's the first time I know broad beans can replace minced meat, and I can't eat them at all."
Luo Xiaosong said: "The key is that the taste is amazing. I swear, I have never eaten such delicious mapo tofu before today."
Wan Yu agreed: "Yes, yes, me too."
The two praised each other very sincerely.
The photographers next to me were almost drooling.
At this time, Cheng Zhongqing asked: "Miss Li, may I ask, how did you come up with the idea of using broad beans instead of minced meat?"
Li Xiwu's eyes were very candid: "To make Mapo Tofu, the quality of lean meat is also very high. I was pressed for time at noon and didn't have time to select the meat and mince it. There happened to be broad beans in the ingredients, so I decided to use broad beans instead of meat.
Finally, this approach is not a precedent for me, I also saw it on TV by chance."
Cheng Zhongqing then asked: "Let's talk about frying vegetables. How do you deal with the earthy smell?"
Li Xiwu said in a calm tone: "Usually when frying vegetables, you only need to wash them and put them in the pot. However, it is difficult to cover up the earthy smell of the vegetables, so I blanch the vegetables."
Cheng Zhongqing said: "It must be more than just boiling water."
Li Xiwu was surprised by Cheng Zhongqing's insight.
Could it be that this expert Cheng has appeared on any food programs before?
"Yes." Her tone was still calm: "Before blanching, I added chicken oil to the water. The oil will coat the vegetables when they are blanched in the pot, so that the fried vegetables will not have an earthy smell.
"
When answering Cheng Zhongqing's questions, Li Xiwu's neither arrogant nor impetuous attitude and calm tone were surprising.
Properly hidden without leakage.
Cheng Zhongqing directly gave Li Xiwu a thumbs up and praised: "Miss Li, you are simply too good. This must be the best Mapo tofu and stir-fried vegetables I have ever tasted."
Cheng Zhongqing spoke highly of Li Xiwu.
Everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
Whether it was the photographers, staff, brand sponsors, or Gao Yueban sitting next to the monitor, they all couldn't help but want to taste the food Li Xiwu cooked for lunch today.
Gao Yue half-faced the monitor screen with her mouth open: "Is it really that delicious?"
The assistant next to him handed a tissue to Gao Yueban: "Director Gao, your saliva is drooling."
Gao Yueban took the paper towel and wiped his mouth: "Teacher Li is really hiding something secret. This revelation can directly be exposed on the hot search."
Min Hanrong originally disdained the two dishes cooked by Li Xiwu, but the two vegetarian dishes were so praised that they almost went to heaven. It must have been the arrangement of the show crew, and it was not that exaggerated at all.
But when Min Hanrong saw her daughter-in-law Tao Jing, she was also eating with chopsticks. After silently swallowing a few times, Min Hanrong stepped forward and said, "I...have a taste too."
Seeing everyone moving their chopsticks, Li Xiwu slowly retreated to Han Qianye's side and asked, "Do you want a bowl of rice?"
Han Qianye, who had never had a chance to speak, finally had a chance to speak when Li Xiwu took the initiative to ask her if she wanted to eat. She asked Li Xiwu: "These two dishes did you learn temporarily before you came to record the show?"
Li Xiwu answered truthfully: "I will do it before."
Han Qianye suddenly fell silent.
She walked forward and saw that Min Hanrong had already sandwiched several pieces of Mapo Tofu. She smiled kindly and asked: "Our Xiwu made it, how does it taste?"
Min Hanrong couldn't stop eating. These two dishes were so filling. She only ate six cents full at each meal and strictly controlled her figure. She couldn't wait to show off two bowls of rice at noon today.
Suddenly hearing Han Qianye's voice, Min Hanrong immediately retracted her hand that wanted to continue picking up food and replied: "It's okay."
The smile on Han Qianye's lips almost flew to the back of her head, and she said in a very showy tone: "Oh, my cooking skills are not very good, but my daughter-in-law's cooking skills are very good."
Min Hanrong had nothing to say to refute, so she followed Han Qianye's words and responded: "Yes, yes, it's great."
When Han Qianye saw that Min Hanrong was convinced, she felt that she was too angry!
She usually goes out with a lot of dignity and is praised by others, but she doesn't feel anything at all. The injustice she suffered this morning has been brooding in her heart, feeling stuck and uncomfortable, and there is no way to save her face.
But now, Li Xiwu had gained all the face for her, and Han Qianye was so happy that she really wanted to hug Li Xiwu and give her a kiss.
etc!
calm!
What are you thinking about, Han Qianye!
You don't want to see Li Xiwu.
Don't change your opinion of her just because she did this one thing.
Although he was thinking this in his heart and reminding himself, Han Qianye's eyes would always look softer when he looked at Li Xiwu again...
"Hey, leave some for me, I haven't eaten yet."
After being happy, Han Qianye noticed that the two dishes were getting less and less, and they were about to reach the bottom of the plate. Han Qianye hurriedly went to get chopsticks and bowls.
As soon as she turned around, she saw that Li Xiwu had already served her rice. Han Qianye took it over in a very pretentious manner: "I can do this myself."
Li Xiwu curled her lips and reminded her: "There's not much food left."
Han Qianye said nothing, and immediately took the rice that Li Xiwu served for her, and went over to sit down.
【Everyone is rushing to eat it, is it really that delicious? 】
[When will a mobile phone that can smell be produced? I really want to smell how fragrant it is.]
[Li Xiwu’s cooking skills have been recognized by everyone, doesn’t it mean she can’t cook? 】
[That’s what her mother-in-law said about her not being able to cook, and she never said it herself.]
[Han Qianye was completely defeated, but her daughter-in-law came back to her, beautiful!]
[No one eats the dishes cooked by Min Hanrong, hahaha, it seems that Li Xiwu’s cooking skills are really good!]
[I look forward to seeing Li Xiwu cooking again in the evening. I picked up a notebook and learned from him. I remember that the last person I wanted to learn cooking from was Long Ma. 】
Today’s highlight at noon is all about Li Xiwu’s group.
What netizens said is indeed correct.
The popularity of the fourth group was entirely due to Li Xiwu's ability to turn the tide, grabbing everyone's appetite with just two dishes, and directly winning the game.
I was about to finish two dishes.
Gao Yueban, who was so greedy, couldn't resist the temptation on the screen. He rushed out with a bowl and shouted: "Please, leave some for me."
Mapo tofu and stir-fried vegetables are from "The Little Master of China". I loved watching it when I was a kid and it still leaves a deep impression on me.
