He pulled twice with his big hand and pulled out several rice worms floating on the water.
"Brother Chu Bi, what are these little bugs?" Fang Jun came up to him curiously and asked in wonder.
Cheng Chubi flicked a rice bug off his finger, proudly showing off the common sense of southerners.
"This thing is called rice worm. Generally speaking, it can only be found on old rice. New rice that has just been harvested cannot grow this thing."
"Brother Chu Bi, what do you mean, this thing you are making is Chen Mi?"
Li Ke frowned slightly and whispered in pain.
"Brother Chu Bi, why do you have to ask them to get old rice to soak, just because old rice is a few cents cheaper than new rice?"
"???" Cheng Chubi felt bad all over. Damn it, because old rice is a few cents cheaper than new rice...
He immediately glared fiercely at His Highness the King of Wu, who was so poor that he thought about taking his loincloth to a pawn shop in exchange for a couple of bucks.
"After all, I am also a dignified governor of the governor's office. Do I care about those people with a few copper coins?"
"To make rice flour, you have to use old rice. New rice is useless, did you know that?"
"There must be a reason, right?" Fang Jun couldn't help but look at Brother Chu Bi with some suspicion. He also had the slightest suspicion about this diligent and thrifty brother Chu Bi.
"That's all, today I'm going to give you some popular science on why old rice is used in rice noodles."
"That's because the viscosity of new rice is too good. The rice noodles produced are too sticky and tend to stick together, making it difficult to mix."
"The viscosity of rice will decrease after one year of storage, so old rice is used instead of new rice when making rice noodles."
"Anyone who wonders why rice noodles are not made with new rice is looking for trouble, do you understand?"
Seeing that Brother Chu Bi was full of murderous intent and looked like he wanted to pick up the vat of soaked rice to convince others with his virtue, Li Ke and Fang Jun rolled their eyes and nodded quickly.
"Chengchengcheng, let's just eat whatever you like to cook with it, right?"
"Haha... Just be sensible." Cheng Chubi nodded slightly with satisfaction.
His eyes moved and fell on the soybeans on the side. At this moment, these soybeans had also been soaked for a long time.
With a pinch of his hand, he could directly pinch open the soybeans that had absorbed the water. Cheng Chubi nodded with satisfaction.
It’s worth waiting patiently for such a long time, the cold noodles without fried soybeans is not perfect.
As for the cold noodle without chili, it is even less perfect, but the problem is, I can’t swim across the Pacific Ocean for a bowl of cold noodle, right?
Therefore, sometimes incomplete beauty is also a kind of beauty. Cold powder without chili is like Venus with a broken arm.
After soothing himself, Cheng Chubi suddenly felt that his heart was much more balanced.
Anyway, I have brewed a lot of dogwood oil, which is also a spicy red oil. Although it does not have the flavor of chili pepper, it still has a spicy taste.
Just when Cheng Chubi was building himself up mentally, he happened to see Cheng Fa jumping back with two big knives of pork.
"Third Young Master, I traveled all over Luzhou City to buy castrated pigs. I didn't expect there were so few castrated pigs here in Luzhou."
"It seems that the promotion is still insufficient..." After hearing this, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but complain.
"Brother Weide, this is your fault. As the governor, you should be responsible for such civil affairs."
Li Ke's entire face turned dark, and he pointed his finger at his nose.
"Brother Chu Bi, can you be more serious and ask me, the great governor, to promote castrated pigs?"
"As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. Aren't we coming to Luzhou just to solve the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation for the people?"
"Besides, you, the Grand Governor, have been here for half a year. Except for Chengtian, haha... you think, even your eldest brother is raising pigs in the East Palace."
"He is not afraid of being laughed at, and he was even praised by your father for vigorously promoting castration breeding.
For the sake of the meat consumption of the people of Luzhou, you, the Grand Governor, strongly appealed to the people to help promote the breeding of castrated pigs.
This is such a positive thing. Is it possible that your father will whip you if he doesn’t reward you?"
"Okay, okay, I'll think about it later, little brother." Li Ke said with a pained face.
It's such a big deal, Brother Chu Bi can say it in his mouth, but then again, he was severely scolded by his own father before.
Issuing a governor's order calling on the people of Luzhou to breed castrated pigs, well... this is indeed a serious matter, and maybe my own father will be very happy about it.
Just as Li Ke's eyes were rolling and he was weighing the pros and cons, Cheng Chubi picked up the two pieces of meat and began to look at them carefully.
One cut is pork belly, and the other cut is pork neck, but Guizhou people call this stuffed pork belly.
This is a good piece of pork belly, with alternating fat and lean meat, very even, while the pork belly is fatter and thinner.
When they saw the two pieces of meat, Li Ke and Fang Jun, two guys who had already been bitten by Cheng Chubi, their eyes suddenly lit up.
"Brother Chu Bi, this is excellent pork belly. Are you going to use it to make braised pork?"
"Haha... of course not. This fine pork belly is used to make soft whistles, and this pork belly is used to make crispy whistles."
"Soft whistle, crisp whistle..." Li Ke couldn't help but pursed his lips. I really don't know how Brother Chu Bi's brain was so long that he was able to think of a new dish after a while.
Cheng Chubi told Cheng Da to start grinding rice pulp, and he picked up the two pieces of meat and came to the chopping board, wearing his helmet belt...
Wearing an apron and a high hat, he looked like a standard chef.
First, remove the skin from the pork belly and pork belly, then wash and soak them thoroughly until all the blood is removed.
After washing the pork belly, cut it into large pieces and throw it into the pot to cook. Here, the pork belly is under Cheng Chubi's knife.
Soon it turned into strips of meat about two centimeters long and one centimeter in diameter. This is how the tenderloin usually has to be cut.
Try to have both fat and lean meat on each soft whistle, so that it will be more delicious after being made.
After the pork belly is cut, the pork belly is rolled a few times in the pot, taken out, washed and rinsed, and then cut into diced meat of one centimeter square.
Li Ke and Fang Jun were standing not far away, admiring Cheng Chubi's superb sword skills.
Fang Jun looked at Brother Chu Bi with admiration, but he cut the meat so quickly that there was almost no difference between the big and small pieces of meat.
"If Brother Chu Bi doesn't become an official but becomes a cook, I'm afraid he will become the top chef in the Tang Dynasty."
Li Ke shook his head and sighed like this.
"Even now, in Manchang'an, there is still no cook who can compare with Brother Chu Bi."
Well, Cheng Chubi kept holding the knife in his hand, and in his ears he could hear the two brothers flattering each other wildly.
These words were clearly spoken to themselves on purpose, just so that they could have more delicious food when the time came.
