Xiao Nianzhi's knife skills are naturally no problem.
The officials she selected were also unwilling to admit defeat.
At first they felt that their knife skills were not good, so they would take some vegetables or something to practice their skills first.
When you feel you are good enough, start with the fish.
In this way, progress has been rapid.
The main thing is that if the leader leads well, the people at the bottom will roll up unconsciously.
Then, the fish fillets were all very well done.
The packed fish fillets need to be soaked in water for a while to remove the fishy smell and to wash away impurities.
After soaking, rinse repeatedly. When the fish fillets look tender and white, you can proceed to the next step of marinating.
If you want the boiled fish fillets to be tender, smooth and flavorful, the marinating step is also very important.
What ingredients are put in and what proportions are controlled? In order to make the taste more tender and smooth, adding an egg white after the starch is the finishing touch.
Taking advantage of this time, Xiao Nianzhi went to look at the spices prepared by others.
Sichuan peppercorns are essential.
The final garnish of chopped green onion and coriander is also necessary.
If you want the boiled fish to have a boiling aroma at the end, frying the base ingredients is naturally extremely important.
When everyone's spices were ready, Xiao Nianzhi began to stir-fry them.
Well, this step...
A little choking.
After all, the homemade sauce has a strong flavor, and after cutting the peppers, the flavor becomes more intense.
After encountering high temperature and hot oil, the spiciness can reach the sky!
Therefore, at first everyone gathered around to watch the fun.
When the spicy feeling came out, everyone except Xiao Nianzhi and Yu Jianzheng ran away.
"Ahem!"
"Oh my god, it's so hot that I want to cry!"
"But it smells good!"
…
Everyone was running and muttering.
Yu Jianzheng was wiping his tears while firmly accompanying Xiao Nianzhi.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Nianzhi laughed out loud: "It's okay to go out, I can do it by myself."
Supervisor Yu was wiping his tears and waving his hands.
I couldn't say a word, and I didn't dare to utter a sound.
Now that I take a breath, the spicy taste is choking my eyes and throat!
So, don't talk, just keep company.
Who doesn't say he is a good leader?
When all the aroma is stir-fried, Xiao Nianzhi adds water.
When the water temperature rises to about 60%, you can add the washed fish heads and bones first.
Xiao Nianzhi used another small pot to blanch the ingredients on the bottom, such as bean sprouts and the like.
The large basins and bowls prepared in advance were taken out.
There are so many of them that one pot is definitely not enough to eat.
Even this pot is not enough, and another pot will be fried later.
Therefore, after the side dishes are blanched, put them in the basin first.
Wait until the water temperature comes up before adding the fish.
In this way, when the fish meat is cooked, the fish bones and the like will also be cooked and flavourful.
Seeing the tender white fish fillets wrapped in red soup and being put into the basin, everyone couldn't take their eyes away again.
Gudong!
I don’t know who swallowed the saliva first.
After that, there was a continuous flow of saliva, and then it started to sound, and finally it became a continuous trend.
Yu Jianzheng even felt it and was a little embarrassed!
However, he didn't have much control over it himself.
It’s this smell that’s really overpowering!
I never thought that fish with a strong muddy smell could one day be produced with such a rich and fragrant taste.
The problem is, this isn't the end yet.
After it was filled, Xiao Nianzhi poured another bowl of prepared spices directly on top.
Then, pour hot oil.
At that moment, the spiciness and aroma that burst out were the most exciting.
Tears were brought to my eyes, but my saliva almost flowed out from the corners of my mouth.
“This tastes!!!”
"It's fatal!"
"I feel like the steamed buns prepared may not be enough!"
"There's also a pot of rice."
…
Everyone smelled it from a distance and kept moving forward.
However, he still maintained his last sense of reason and did not rush forward directly, nor did any crowding occur.
The first pot was ready, and Xiao Nianzhi signaled that he would eat it first if he was anxious.
Everyone:......!
I'm so anxious, what should I do?
So, let’s take a quick taste of the first pot.
Try it for the first time.
Xiao Nianzhi also got a piece, and after summarizing his experience, he made the second pot of frying.
The second pot is larger so more fish fillets can be cooked.
By the time the third pot came out, they had also run out of fish fillets.
Everyone can formally sit down and start eating.
There is no special place for eating in the Yamen, especially a place where you can eat from a big pot.
So, everyone moved out the office desks and other things, made a makeshift table and chairs, and sat down to eat together.
However, because there were so many people, we were divided into two tables.
Some friends were still muttering: "It's a pity that Xu En is not here today."
"Then no one is here, tsk tsk, that's not a good thing."
…
In Shanglinyuan, work outside the home is indispensable.
Therefore, most of the time, the people on the Yamen side are still incomplete.
At noon today, there were many people at the experimental field of Shanglinyuan.
There were even two low-level officials who went directly to the outfield on business.
However, if they miss it, they miss it. After knowing how to eat it, they will have another chance in the future.
Well, I just don’t know when the next time will be.
However, the most important thing is to eat what is in front of you first.
"My saliva is really watering, I just took a bite!"
"Who isn't?"
"I just took a bite of chili. This chili is pretty good!"
"Haha, this is our inventory. Mr. Xiao said that the new ones must be exposed."
"Don't worry, the weather has been nice recently. In a few days, we can have another meal. Remember to go fishing!"
“Are the fish very big?”
…
The food has been served, so naturally no one will waste time talking.
Moreover, you can’t eat without talking.
Can't you shut your mouth with such delicious food?
What a waste, what a waste!
So, eat first.
Xiao Nianzhi was sitting at the table with Yu Jian and the others, and he explained this dish in a low voice: "Actually, boiled fish is a popular name. The more formal one is probably boiled fish fillet."
"Boiling fish fillet? This is a good name, I think it fits the occasion."
"Yes, yes, that last pour really suited the occasion."
"The most important thing is the fish flavor!"
…
Everyone responded promptly to Xiao Nianzhi’s statement.
However, they just said a few words intermittently, and most of the time, everyone was still eating seriously.
After all, if the rice is fragrant, the fish fillets are even more fragrant.
Moreover, it is spicy and delicious.
For many people who cannot eat spicy food, it is indeed a bit difficult.
However, I can't resist the temptation.
Although I'm not good at it, I still love to play.
So, you can’t eat spicy food?
No, if you are determined, try it.
Xiao Nianzhi saw both of them bursting into tears, but they were still eating firmly.
