Pressing the secret button, Ziteng felt that it was not noticed by outsiders, but he did not see that Zhao Youqian had glanced at him inadvertently, and saw that the pen in his chest pocket had begun to operate with an inconspicuous light.
'Sure enough, Yuanyue is not stable internally...'
Considering that among the Halberd-eating Spirits, Yuanyue was occupied by Qieji with almost no resistance, Zhao Youqian sighed.
The strongest fortresses are often breached from the inside. I am afraid that the old man Kirisenzaemon noticed the problem and released this man, hoping to lure the snake out of the hole, right?
It is conceivable that the person behind Wisteria, second to the right, is definitely not Qiji, but he is definitely a high-ranking figure in Yuanyue, and may even be a secret that Qiji has buried for many years.
‘Isn’t this the world of gourmet food? Why is it so complicated?’
Zhao Youqian only felt a headache coming from time to time. He was still used to improving his cooking skills and improving his physical fitness. No matter what his schemes and tricks were, it would be ok to just get over it!
But now he could only pretend that he didn't notice anything and continue what he was doing.
'Tch, if you want to use this kind of thing to record my cooking skills and habits, you are too young. I am a man who has learned countless Yaozhou systems!'
'Just a few tricks, I can do the same thing every day!'
After a moment of contempt for these guys who were doing little tricks behind his back, Zhao Youqian continued to devote his heart to cooking.
Zhao Yougan put the baking sheet covered with coarse sea salt into the oven and preheated it at 200 degrees for twenty minutes.
At this time, the side of the seabass meat that had been fried in the pan was already showing a brown color. With a slight shake and flip, Zhao Youqian had already turned the skin part over and continued to fry.
"This step is to seal in the moisture of the fish and add some of the aroma of the oil. When the dried fish loses most of its moisture, the deliciousness of the fish will also condense. This is a flavor that is incomparable to fresh fish. Every day Even if an ingredient is stale, it will have its own unique taste."
“Learn to use these flavors to make your dishes richer, and you can even innovate and improve the same dish.”
"This is what you have to learn!"
"Do you understand?"
While making it, Zhao Youqian explained his concept.
Although the students present were still a little confused, they all nodded to indicate that they had remembered it.
He didn't care about the attitude of these students. As long as they could think of his words at some point, Zhao Youqian would consider them to have learned something. As for now...it's good that they can listen!
"After the frying is completed, put it directly into the tin foil. You can put some lemon and basil in it or not, but you can put a little black pepper..."
Instead of adding lemon and basil, Zhao Youqian just took the seabass out of the pot, sprinkled some pepper on both sides, and wrapped it.
Then start processing some other ingredients, chopped tomatoes, garlic, honey, chili powder, leek leaves, and diced onions.
Until now, the students present still couldn't understand what Zhao Youqian was going to do, but they could probably guess that it was something like overnight drying, dried fish or something like that.
The so-called overnight drying is a dish made by air-drying fresh fish overnight, or soaking it in salt water and then air-drying it for a period of time. It can make the freshness and flavor of the fish far beyond normal, and increase the toughness and chewiness of the fish.
It’s a great dish to go with wine.
However, no matter what kind of one-night job it is, it seems to have nothing to do with what Zhao Youqian is doing now.
"Instructor Zhao... what exactly do you want to do?"
Isami asked his brother Takemi in a low voice.
"I can't tell."
Shaking his head, the proud Italian student looked at Miyoko Hojo.
"Hojo-san, are you familiar with Yaoshu cuisine? Are there any Yaoshu dishes made this way?"
With the same confused look on her face, Miyoko Hojo couldn't figure out what kind of dishes were made in these ways.
"I don't know..."
However, Tadokoro Hui saw something in Zhao Youqian's ingredients and spoke hesitantly.
“Is it the spicy steamed pollack made using the fresh cooking method?”
Hearing this, the eyes of everyone around him lit up, and when they looked at Zhao You's cooking, their thoughts became clearer.
“Yes! Spicy Steamed Pollack!!”
Once again, they were impressed by this inconspicuous girl. They didn't expect that someone would know about such an unorthodox home-cooked dish. It was better not to mention it. They only remembered it after mentioning it.
The Xian people eat a lot of dried fish products, whether fried, boiled, stewed or steamed.
All of a sudden, they had a better understanding of this kind of air-dried food. Only Miyoko Hojo looked at Tazoe with a slightly weird look.
She didn't expect that such an inconspicuous girl could see through Zhao Youqian's thoughts before them. Even if she had made dried fish before, it already showed her talent.
Seeing that the students had guessed their own production ideas through discussion, Zhao Youqian did not deny it.
"If you want to make steamed fish and face this kind of air-dried product, then Xian ethnic cuisine is also an aspect, and even Xiangjiang's Weng Rice is also an idea that can be made."
Another possibility was mentioned, and the students present were surprised by the rich cuisines that Zhao Youqian was involved in.
"Watch what I do!"
He didn't say anything else, but instead let the students focus on his preparation. The twenty-minute preheating time was up. He took out the baking sheet directly and put the wrapped fish into the pile of heated sea salt. , use a shovel to shovel the surrounding sea salt onto the top of the fish meat to make them heated at the same temperature.
Then put the baking pan into the oven.
"At this time, there is no need to reheat the oven! At the current temperature, the flavor of the sea salt is slowly infiltrated into the fish instead of roasting it!"
Adjust the temperature of the oven to the level of keeping warm, and then Zhao Youqian begins to prepare the sauce.
Add chili powder, tomatoes, and onions to a blender and smash, then add honey, leeks, and light soy sauce.
The last step is to spread these sauces on the seabass that has been in the oven for fifteen minutes, then put it in a boiling steamer and steam it for five minutes.
This is the end of this spicy steamed seabass dish that combines traditional Chinese cooking methods with Western cooking procedures!
Before even opening the lid of the pot, the aroma alone had already intoxicated all the students.
Ziteng, the second person from the right, had a sparkling look in his eyes. He didn't expect that Zhao Youqian would have already entered the realm of quasi-special when he cooked a dish casually!
The moment the light yellow light representing the ultimate flavor lit up, the entire classroom was already silent!
"Come and try it all!"
Zhao Youqian's voice sounded, and immediately there was a wave of frenzied looting!
