"This steamed meat dragon is so delicious!"
At the dining table, Tian Qinglan took a bite of a piece of meat dragon filled with meat fillings. There were layers of soft dough with delicious meat fillings wrapped in the middle.
The noodles are delicious and so is the meat.
One bite reminded Tian Qinglan of the past when he ate in the agency canteen.
I remember that every time the canteen served steamed meat dragon, many people would gather around the window to make rice. If they bought noodles with more noodles and less meat, they would also beg the chef for a cheaper price.
Eat a bite of meat dragon, and then take a sip of barley porridge, it is really comfortable.
While eating, Tian Qinglan noticed that her daughter-in-law did not eat, but was sitting and playing with her mobile phone, so she curiously asked:
"Yanyan, why don't you eat?"
Chen Yan said:
"I'm afraid that I'll have to have my fasting blood sugar tested at the hospital later, so I won't eat for now. I'll eat something after the test. Anyway, I'm not too hungry."
Upon hearing this, Tian Qinglan immediately said:
"No, eat something. If you need any tests, just make an appointment later. You have to eat today. Experts on WeChat said you can't go hungry in the morning, it's not good for your health."
Chen Yan smiled helplessly. Such a knowledgeable person still believed in what was said on the WeChat official account. No wonder those health-preserving articles were so popular.
Zeng Xiaoqi asked:
"Baby Yan, if you don't eat these meat dragons and vegetable pythons, are you worried that they will look too ugly and scare Professor Tian? Just eat what you should, don't be embarrassed."
Chen Yan, who was already having a hard time enduring it, was aroused by these words and immediately picked up a piece of meat dragon and took a bite:
"I look ugly when I eat? Little Qiqi, you are jealous of me in a very unique way."
Humph, I always thought that Xiao Qiqi was jealous of her appearance, figure and career, but she turned out to be jealous of my elegant and elegant eating habits, which made me laugh to death.
Seeing that she was starting to eat, Zeng Xiaoqi said nothing more, but took a picture of the meat dragon and vegetable python on the table and sent it to the group, and also gave Dou Wenjing a special comment:
"Little Doudou, the sun is shining on your buttocks. Hurry up and eat. Your favorite vegetable is python. If you don't eat it, it will be over."
As soon as I posted it, Dou Wenjing started to bubble up in the group:
"Don't mention it. There was a car accident ahead. Everyone was stuck on the Fourth Ring Road and couldn't get off. I was so anxious that I was dying."
I was anxious when I was stuck in a traffic jam, but now I am even more anxious when I see the food pictures posted by Zeng Xiaoqi.
Xiao Qing sent a yawning emoticon:
"You idiots, can't you chat privately? I sorted out the first quarter financial report last night and didn't go to bed until after two in the morning. I'm going to look ugly, and none of you can escape responsibility!"
Dou Wenjing made an emoticon of covering her mouth:
"You can be responsible for becoming ugly, but our body shape has nothing to do with us."
Although she didn't say anything, she expressed what she wanted to express so vividly that Zeng Xiaoqi, who originally wanted to poison the group, immediately felt that the group chat had become boring.
Xiao Qing, who was equally angry, also made a sad and angry complaint:
"What kind of evil did Xiaoqi and I do in our last lives to stay in the same group as you big furbolgs!"
Zeng Xiaoqi:??????
If you accuse, accuse, don't drag me into it!
Chen Yan took a mouthful of dried radish with soy sauce and put it into her mouth, chewing it, then took another bite of meat dragon, looked at Shen Jiayue and asked:
"When will you start making pig's trotters and ginger? If it's early, I might be able to catch up."
Lin Xu said:
"It's almost time. We'll start after breakfast. If you want to learn this simple thing, just go back and record the video, and just follow it. Just a few steps, nothing else."
It’s okay to say that a novice in the kitchen can’t cook other dishes, but that doesn’t exist with pork trotters and ginger.
Even people without any cooking skills can cook it as long as they choose the right ingredients.
When Chen Yan heard this, she felt relieved and planned to go to the hospital after dinner. If she came back early, she might be able to observe and learn on the spot.
After all, no matter how good the tutorial is, it’s not as straightforward as on-site learning.
After the meal, she and Tian Qinglan left in a hurry, and Chen Yuanyuan and Zeng Xiaoqi also went to the company to start today's work.
Lin Xu came to the kitchen, brought over the soaked pig's trotters, and began to clean them up.
The burnt pig's trotters are soaked in warm water, and the black ash on the surface will fall off with a gentle rub.
After washing all the pig's trotters, Lin Xu took a kitchen knife and started chopping.
This step may seem like it only requires strength, but in fact it still requires skill. First, use a knife to split the pig's trotters vertically from the middle of the forked hoof flaps, and then chop the bones on both sides separately.
This step is difficult to do with an ordinary kitchen knife, so you need to use a professional bone-chopping knife.
The back of this type of knife is usually as thick as a finger, and it looks bulky, but it can be used to cut hard bones with precision, not to mention pig's trotters, and even chop beef bones.
Of course, just being professional in cutting tools is not enough, you also need to have certain skills.
The width of the swing of the knife, the force of the cutting, and the point of landing of the knife all need to be grasped correctly, otherwise it is easy to cause an accident, and in serious cases, the finger may even be cut off.
Therefore, when encountering this kind of step, it is best to let the butcher stall owner help you handle it, rather than holding a household kitchen knife and being unable to start.
When chopping, Lin Xu deliberately left four pig trotters and an elbow for filming the video later.
Cut the rest into large pieces.
The pig's trotters are processed and put into a pot for blanching.
Blanching can not only remove impurities, but also remove the peculiar smell in the pig's trotters. The pig's trotters and ginger produced in this way taste better and taste more delicious.
While blanching, Lin Xu took the turmeric over, scraped off the skin with the back of a knife, and patted it flatly with a kitchen knife a few times to break up the turmeric.
Turmeric is used to make pig's trotters and ginger. Firstly, turmeric has higher nutritional content. Secondly, turmeric has less fiber and tastes more delicious. Moreover, the ginger flavor of turmeric is lighter than that of fresh ginger, so it is most suitable for cooking in this way. p>
The pig's trotters and ginger we are going to make today are very large, and we use a lot of turmeric, enough for a basket.
For people who don't eat ginger, this is simply a lethal dose, but the old people feel that this amount is not enough. The most delicious form of pig's trotter ginger is when the ginger and pig's trotters are at a ratio of one to one.<
/p>
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
But today is not a wedding held by Cantonese people, and the customers who are eating are not Cantonese, so it is better to reduce the amount a little, so that everyone will not get used to it.
After patting the turmeric piece by piece, it cannot be used directly. Instead, it must be poured into a clean pot without oil and water, and roasted over high heat.
Use roasting method to stir-fry out the water vapor of turmeric, and roast the aroma at the same time, so that the braised pig's trotters and ginger will be more delicious and delicious.
After the turmeric is roasted, divide it into two equal portions and put them into two extra-large casseroles one after another.
In addition to turmeric, pig's trotters and ginger also require a large amount of pig's trotters and a lot of hard-boiled eggs. What I'm making today is a very large portion, so even an extra-large casserole won't fit in it, so I need to divide it into two pots.
After putting the turmeric into the casserole, open the sweet vinegar and pour bottles into the casserole.
Fill the pot until two-thirds full, cover the pot, and cook over high heat.
Zhuang Yizhou, who had been studying next to him, asked curiously:
"Aren't you going to put pig's trotters in now, boss?"
"Don't add it for now. The sweet vinegar has a fermented smell. If you add the pig's trotters directly, the strange smell of fermentation will penetrate into the meat. Let's boil it for a while and the strange smell will be boiled out. Then add the pig's trotters and it won't
There will be a strange smell."
Zhuang Yizhou quickly took his cell phone and wrote it down, preparing to go back and make pork trotters and ginger for his girlfriend again.
Lin Xu continued:
"First boil the turmeric with sweet vinegar, and the vinegar will be full of ginger flavor. When the pig's trotters are put into the pot, the pig's trotters will be boiled with ginger and vinegar instead of boiled with turmeric and pig's trotters in sweet vinegar."
Boil pig's trotters with ginger-vinegar juice. The taste of ginger will penetrate into the pig's trotters along with the sweet vinegar, achieving the effect of removing foreign substances and increasing flavor.
Soon, the sweet vinegar in the casserole will boil.
Lin Xu turned down the heat, and the blanched pig's trotters next to it were almost ready.
Use a large slotted spoon to take out the pig's trotters and elbow meat, wash them in warm water, and try to clean the surface impurities as much as possible, then set them aside to control the water.
Ten minutes later, when the surface of the pig's trotters is dry and no longer dripping water, put the wok with the freshly roasted turmeric back on the stove.
Heat up the fire, put the pig's trotters into the pot in batches, and dry-fry the pig's trotters like roasting turmeric.
This step is to remove the peculiar smell on the surface of the pig skin, and at the same time use dry roasting to remove the moisture in the pig's trotters. In this way, the ginger and vinegar juice can penetrate better during cooking, and the taste of the pig's trotters will be more elastic.
.
In fact, in dry northern areas, there is no need to bake in this step, just put it in the sun for a while, or use a fan to blow it for a while.
As long as the skin of the pig's trotters is tightened and the water content is reduced, the taste and quality of the pig's trotters and ginger will be greatly improved.
Soon, steam will come out of the pot. This is because the water in the pig's trotters has been fried.
Lin Xu stir-fried a few more times, poured the high-strength white wine next to it into the pot, and quickly stir-fried a few more times, using the volatility of the white wine to take away the odor as much as possible.
When the pig's trotters are completely fried and a little oily comes out, turn off the heat and take it out, and start frying in the next pot.
All the pig's trotters and elbow meat have been dry-roasted, and the sweet vinegar and turmeric in the pot have been simmering for nearly 20 minutes. Lin Xu poured the meat into two casseroles and stir-fried a few times to try to mix the sweet vinegar and pig's trotters.
Flush.
If there is too little sweet vinegar, you can add some black rice vinegar.
Black rice vinegar has a strong sour taste, so you need to add some borneol to neutralize the sour taste.
After placing it, bring to a boil over high heat, then cover the pot, turn to low heat and start cooking.
Lin Xu looked at the time and told Zhuang Yizhou:
"Boil twenty or thirty eggs later, peel them and put them in a casserole. This will make the pig's feet and ginger taste more delicious."
The biggest feature of pig's trotter ginger is that in addition to pig's trotters and ginger, some peeled hard-boiled eggs must be cooked together to achieve the effect of nourishing yin and replenishing deficiency.
These pig's trotters and ginger need to be simmered for two hours. The longer the time, the more delicious the pig's trotters and ginger will be.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xu carried the remaining four pig's trotters and an elbow to the small kitchen. It was time to shoot a video with the good baby.
Shen Jiayue has arranged everything and is studying it carefully with a bottle of sweet vinegar.
She said curiously:
"Xubao, I found that these sweet vinegars contain borneol, cinnamon, and other ingredients that are commonly seen... If I boil these again, can I make sweet vinegar?"<
/p>
Lin Xu nodded:
"Yes, it turns out to be sweet vinegar."
"Wow, I'm so smart, I actually figured out how to make sweet vinegar."
Lin Xu smiled bitterly:
"Then if I boil the salt in water and boil the water dry, the salt particles can be precipitated... But this method is meaningless. There is ready-made sweet vinegar available, so why bother with it?"
Shen Jiayue pouted and said:
"You want to make something with better quality, right?"
"It's not good. You don't have a specific ratio. The finished product will most likely not taste as good as the one sold... Aren't there a lot of people on the Internet who used raw oysters to make oyster sauce? In the end, we came to the conclusion that the bottled oyster sauce is not as delicious... …Don’t bother, don’t use your hands to deny the entire industrial system, this is against the law of development of things.”
Being lectured by Lin Xu, Shen Baobao lowered his head and touched his index fingers lightly, feeling endless grievance.
When Lin Xu saw this situation, he smiled and held her in his arms:
"But my baby's idea is good. When I can't buy sweet vinegar in the future, I will use my baby's method to boil a big pot. Do you think it's okay?"
"Ha, let me just say my method works!"
Shen Jiayue's face immediately changed from cloudy to sunny. She enthusiastically set up her camera and started shooting.
I originally planned to let Chen Yan be the photographer today, but she went to the hospital, so I didn't want a photographer. I set up several fixed camera positions and started recording the whole process after they were all turned on.
Anyway, the memory card is big enough, and the camera also uses an external power supply, so you don’t have to worry about running out of power.
Lin Xu placed the pig's trotters, elbows, sweet vinegar, and eggs on the workbench in order, and the shooting officially began.
"Hello everyone, I am Lin Xu."
"I am Shen Jiayue!"
"With the arrival of spring, friends in the south may have begun to prepare summer clothes, but the temperature in the north is still changing, especially at night, the temperature is still in the single digits, and you may catch a cold if you are not careful."
Lin Xu said this while facing the camera, turned his face and glanced at Shen Jiayue who was beside him and giggled:
"It's your turn to say it, why are there such no tacit understandings?"
"You speak so nicely, I want to keep listening."
Shen Jiayue sprinkled some dog food and then said:
"In this kind of weather, it is easy for people to get cold hands and feet, especially girls. In addition to adding clothes in time, you can also increase heat and resistance through a delicious food. This is what we are going to teach you today to make for the month in Guangdong. Food - pig, feet, ginger!"
At the end of the opening remarks, Lin Xu introduced the ingredients to be used, and then said:
"In the past, the eggs used in pig's trotters and ginger were put in their shells. They needed to be soaked in the pig's trotters soup for a month before they could be eaten. It is said that in that state, the eggshells had completely melted into the soup, and you could still eat them. Calcium supplement."
Shen Jiayue on the side quickly looked down at the notes she took before breakfast.
You Xubao, you actually held back when you told me. If you didn't tell me such important content in advance, were you afraid of stealing your limelight?
She originally wanted to portray a gourmet persona, but she didn't expect that the gap was widened from the beginning.
They were filming at the moment, and Lin Xu had already mentioned this matter, so he had to challenge her. Besides, her curiosity was aroused, so she asked:
"Wouldn't it be bad in a month?"
"No, not a drop of water is put in the production process of pig's trotters and ginger, let alone raw water. So even in the summer in the south, the cooked pig's trotters and ginger only need to be boiled regularly once, let alone a month, a year It won’t be bad.”
"Wow, it's amazing, then why don't you do it now?"
Shen Jiayue tasted pig's trotter ginger when traveling in Yangcheng in the past, but because she didn't like the taste of ginger, she only tasted it, and the rest was reimbursed by Shen Guofu and Han Shuzhen.
But now that Lin Xu wants to do it, he naturally needs to eat more.
Lin Xu said:
"One month is too long, and many people can't afford to wait, so now they just peel the eggs and put them in a pot to stew. They will color quickly and have enough flavor. There is no need to wait another month."
After saying that, he picked up the bone-chopping knife and started to chop the pig's trotters and elbows.
Shen Jiayue said from the side:
"My friends, if you are not good at using knives like me, you can leave this step to the enthusiastic stall owner. Of course, if you have a handsome husband like me, you can also ask your husband to help."
Lin Xu cut the pig's trotters out three times, started to blanch them, and followed the steps of making pig's trotters and ginger, explaining each step.
Shen Jiayue participated enthusiastically and also experienced the process of roasting turmeric.
While the young couple was filming the video, there was a different scene in Union Hospital.
Chen Yan was sitting outside the special needs clinic of the International Department, carefully checking the case analysis on delayed menstruation on her mobile phone, but the more she read, the more frightened she became, because the symptoms of this situation include uterine fibroids, cervical cancer and other series of cancers. Disease.
She looked at Tian Qinglan next to her with some fear and asked:
"Mom, I won't be able to have children in this life, right?"
Tian Qinglan smiled:
"Silly boy, even I know that you are sick and have cancer. How can you even believe this? Besides, if you can't have children, you can't have children. I will treat you like a child and pamper you all my life."
Chen Yan felt a little calmer:
"It's a pity that there is no good mother-in-law award. If there is, I will definitely sign up for you and help you get the first prize!"
Tian Qinglan smiled:
"Relax, don't be nervous."
Just as he was talking, Han Shuzhen came over accompanied by Mrs. Han.
Han Shuzhen did not have an outpatient clinic today, so she came here specifically to tell Mrs. Han about asking for leave to go to Yinzhou. When she saw Chen Yan and Tian Qinglan sitting here, she came over.
"Xiaoyan, why are you and Professor Tian here? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Han Shuzhen looked at Chen Yan and then at Tian Qinglan, thinking that something was wrong with the professor's health.
When Chen Yan saw her aunt coming, as if she had a backbone, she quickly stood up and said:
"Aunt, I... I haven't had my period. I just checked on Baidu and found that it might be uterine fibroids and cervical cancer... Do you think I'll be fine?"
In front of her mother-in-law, she had always maintained her image as a good daughter-in-law, but when she saw her aunt, Chen Yan couldn't hold herself together.
The words on the Internet were so scary that she was really worried about something happening to her body.
Han Shuzhen patted her shoulder and said with a smile:
"You are searching randomly on the Internet again, right? A menstrual disorder does not lead to cancer... Have you done a test? If not, let you, Grandma Han, say hello to the people here."
Before he finished speaking, the door of the nearby laboratory opened, and a doctor took the test sheet and said:
"Chen Yan, which one is Chen Yan? Your results are out."
"Doctor, do I have cancer?"
The doctor smiled:
"Don't scare yourself, you are just pregnant and there is nothing wrong with your body."
Chen Yan:??????
Mamma Mia, this beautiful girl is going to be a mother?
Tian Qinglan, who was originally preparing to comfort her daughter-in-law, was also a little confused.
Yueyue had just asked her in the morning if she was pregnant, and her daughter-in-law said firmly that she was not. Who would have thought that Yueyue's words came true.
My daughter-in-law is pregnant, then I also want to be a grandmother?
Oops, this is a great thing for the Ren family, I have to inform the old man quickly!
