Once the preparation is complete, the shooting officially begins.

The salt-baked chicken dish requires very few ingredients and ingredients, except for the young hens that have been slaughtered, the rest is large sea salt, sand ginger, salt and liquor, and a few pieces of jade button paper.

The authentic method of salt-baked chicken is made with very few ingredients.

In addition to table salt, the rest is sand ginger.

Sand ginger, also known as kaempfer, is a spice that is very similar to ginger.

However, although the two have similar names and similar appearances, their functions are different.

Ginger has a spicy taste, put it in when cooking, can play a role in removing odors, although everyone habitually says that putting ginger is to increase the fragrance, but the main role of ginger is to remove odors.

If you add flavor, there is really very little, and at most you will get your own spicy taste on the ingredients.

Sand ginger is different, sand ginger also has a spicy taste, but it is much lighter than ginger, and sand ginger can not only remove the odor, but also play a role in increasing the flavor.

Especially when making meat dishes, adding sand ginger can make the flavor of the ingredients much stronger.

Therefore, to make salt-baked chicken, you need to put sand ginger, which can make the fragrance richer and more delicious.

In fact, in Cantonese cuisine, sand ginger has many uses, such as cooking, soup, cold salad, and dipping sauce...... Anyway, as long as you can think of it, you can put sand ginger.

Of course, in addition to the more fragrant taste of ginger, it also has a different function from ginger.

The main function of ginger is to sweat and drive away cold, while the main role of sand ginger is to appetize and eliminate food.

The role of these two determines the difference in usage.

In the Lingnan region, the temperature is hot for most of the year, and there is no need to sweat to ward off the cold, but because of the hot weather, many people will lose their appetite.

Therefore, putting sand ginger can play an appetizing role and increase people's meals.

Xie Hailong, who participated in the video for the first time, was a little excited, and he explained the difference between sand ginger and ginger in fluent Cantonese Mandarin, as well as the status of sand ginger in Cantonese cuisine.

Then we will start to explain the first key step of making salt-baked chicken - marinated chicken.

To make salt-baked chicken, you need to marinate the chicken in advance, so that the chicken will be more delicious.

Only the marinated chicken is delicious when it is baked with salt, otherwise no matter how good the baked chicken is, it will be a failed product.

Xie Hailong took the prepared sand ginger and put it on the board, used his skillful knife to cut the sand ginger into even minced pieces, and then said: "The method of marinating chicken is very simple, that is, just chop the sand ginger into minced pieces, and then spread it evenly on the chicken with salt."

If you are troublesome to cook at home, you can also buy those finished salt-baked chicken powder, the main ingredients in it are actually table salt and sand ginger, and there is almost no difference in taste. ”

In Xu Zhuo's impression, chefs are people who don't talk much and like to bury their heads in work.

But almost all of these chefs I met were talkative, and I was afraid that I would say too little.

For example, when shooting videos, these chefs don't care if they can use it or not, and they have to explain almost every step from beginning to end when cooking.

It's pretty good for Xu Zhuo, because he doesn't have to rack his brains to think about topics, he just needs to say "um", "yes", "yes", "really good" and other compliments from time to time next to him, and he doesn't have to do anything else.

Xu Zhuo felt that if he was desperate in the future, he could go to Deyun Club to be a praising actor, and his level was enough.

Xie Hailong put the minced sand ginger into a bowl, added a spoonful of salt to it, poured in some white wine, and after stirring well, he began to grab and apply it to the chicken.

The purpose of adding liquor is to better absorb the flavor, and it can also remove the miscellaneous smell on the chicken, making the chicken more tender and delicious.

In addition, the volatility and permeability of liquor can also speed up the pickling speed.

If the marinade cannot be spread evenly, it is necessary to massage and rub the chicken repeatedly with your hands, so that the sand ginger and salt can penetrate into the meat faster and more evenly.

Xie Hailong's mouth didn't stop when he massaged the chicken: "In fact, in these marinades, you can also put some gardenia powder, and the chicken that comes out of this way is yellow and bright, and it looks better."

However, the freshly killed chicken we used today is of very good quality, so there is no need to be so troublesome. ”

Massage the chicken several times inside and out, use up all the marinade in the bowl, then put it in a basin, cover it with plastic wrap and start marinating.

To ensure that it can be marinated thoroughly, the marinating time should not be less than one hour.

After the camera was turned off, Xie Hailong washed his hands, wiped the sweat on his face with excitement with a towel, looked at Xu Zhuo and asked, "How did I play?"

Xu Zhuo smiled: "Yes, very good, you can tell at a glance that it is a person who has passed through a big scene." ”

Xie Hailong smiled, he has indeed experienced a lot of big scenes, and he has also taken some food videos.

But the thought of millions of people watching the video after it was released made his calves tremble with excitement.

The road to visiting professor is officially opened.

I hope that at the end of the year, I will have an eyebrow on this matter, and I don't want to get the title of visiting professor immediately, but at least I have to see that hope fails.

During the Chinese New Year, let the master operate over there, and then talk to Xu Jimin, Yu Peiyong and others, everyone worked together, and this matter was basically done.

For universities, most of the time they have so many visiting professors is for the purpose of recruiting students.

A small part of it is really for the good of the students, after all, these famous chefs who have been famous for a long time not only have a wealth of culinary experience, but they also have those knowledge that they simply cannot learn in class.

At least a few words from these professors will be enough for the students at the school to chew on for a long time.

For example, the way you get along with your colleagues, how to choose a teacher when you enter the back kitchen, and how to get the benefits you deserve.

These are things that the teachers at school can't teach them.

But these visiting professors are very experienced, and even they can become celebrity chefs, there is a factor in this.

At this point, the shooting was paused, and everyone else gathered to the side and chatted.

Xu Zhuo listened for a while, and found that they were not talking about salt-baking techniques, but were touting each other, so he didn't continue to listen, and walked to the company.

Yuan Kang has not made any movement in the past two days, neither confessed, nor deliberately tried to please Zhou Wen, and even Zhou Wen's circle of friends did not like it.

This made Xu Zhuo a little baffled.

Could it be that he is preparing to pretend to be deep to attract Zhou Wen's attention?

If that's the case, then it's even more difficult, after all, Zhou Wen is an anchor, what kind of man has he never seen?

If you play deep, you may sink yourself.

When he came to the company, Xu Zhuojing walked into Li Hao's office, and it happened that Lao Meng was also there.

The three gossip men got together, and the topic naturally revolved around Yuan Kang, after all, Yuan Kang and Zhou Wen are also a pair of rich women.

And Yuan Kang's character is also trustworthy, not the kind of person who has a fancy intestine.

But things didn't go as much as everyone imagined......

"What? Yuan Kang has been obsessed with fitness for the past two days, and he doesn't even care about work?"
