Chapter 937: Guizhou Spicy Chicken [Asking for Votes]
"Hmm...... Bear cub, he has a spatula that is not afraid of being hot, take a walk, take you to eat canned food, deep-sea fish yo ......"
After Yu Keke left the kitchen with the bear cub in his arms, Xu Zhuo continued to make onion and potato rings. This snack is not difficult, as long as you don't put too much salt, it basically won't be too bad.
When the second pot was ready, Yu Keke had already finished eating the ones she had just served, and she also ingeniously smeared some tomato sauce and salad dressing on it, and the taste was surprisingly good, so it was out of control.
"Is this pot ready, then I'll take it over......"
Xu Zhuo thought that this girl was idle and had nothing to help, so he let her take it out.
In this way, he made a pot, and Yu Coco took a pot, and every time it was just in time to get out of the pot.
But when Xu Zhuo came out of the kitchen after finishing everything, he found that there were only a few empty plates and a few onion and potato rings on the table.
He looked at the ketchup and salad dressing on the side of him, and then at Yu Keke who was rubbing his stomach, his face was full of helplessness: "Just eat enough, why can you still stuff it into your stomach?"
Yu Keke was also a little embarrassed, after all, Xu Zhuo had done so much, and she was chatting with the people in the group who had not slept yet, while eating with ketchup and salad dressing.
When I came back to my senses, I found that I had eaten so much, and my stomach was already unbearable, and I was caught by Xu Zhuo, so I was a little embarrassed.
When girls are embarrassed, they either bow their heads shyly, or they are ashamed and angry.
For example, now, Yu Keke is indignantly accusing Xu Zhuo: "Hmph, it's all your fault! Cooking so delicious doesn't stop me, causing me to eat so much, you actually laugh! Say, how do you compensate me?"
This ability to bite back refreshed Xu Zhuo's understanding of her, but considering that this girl had eaten so many things, Xu Zhuo reminded her very considerately: "Don't drink water." ”
Yu Keke was stunned for a moment, and some didn't understand Xu Zhuo's answer.
"You've eaten so much, it's all in your stomach, and once you drink water, it will swell, so don't drink water at this time. ”
Xu Zhuo pinched a slice of onion and potato rings and tasted it, the taste was really good, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and you could also eat onions, green peppers, carrots and ham sausage minced inside, which was really good.
After eating a slice, he felt that Yu Keke was about to speak, so he hurriedly spoke first: "Talk less, you will be thirsty if you talk more." ”
Yu Keke opened her mouth, originally wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Well, although my man doesn't speak well, he is really thinking about himself, so listen to him and don't open his mouth to make a sound, so that he doesn't have to continue to nag endlessly.
Yu Keke went to the sofa with the bear cub in his arms, and began to chat with those "Yun Shousui" friends in the group, showing off a wave of Xu Zhuo's straight male concern by the way.
In the following days, Xu Zhuo basically stayed in the store, occasionally going to the old lady's house for a meal, or accompanying Yu Changjiang and his family around the neighborhood.
Now the taste of the New Year is getting weaker and weaker, except for some temple fairs with a strong commercial atmosphere, you can also feel some New Year's atmosphere, and other places are no different from usual.
Even more boring than usual.
Usually, you can go to the mall and drive around, but now, there are bustling crowds everywhere, you can hear New Year's promotion advertisements everywhere, and even Liu Tianwang's song "Wishing you prosperity" is everywhere.
Originally, a large family was going to Shaolin Temple, but in this case, it is estimated that Shaolin Temple is full of people, so don't toss around.
So until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the people of the Xu family and the Yu family also stayed at home and didn't go anywhere, except for eating all day long......
Play mahjong!
I ate and played like this every day, and although it felt very refreshing, I felt bored after a long time.
Especially all day long, I eat the food prepared those years ago, all kinds of fried steamed pork and so on, which makes everyone lose their appetite more and more.
"I don't want to eat anymore, I feel like I can't eat at all, do you say Ah Bear Cub, let's lose weight together today?"
Yu Keke hugged the bear cub, looking like she wanted to diet and lose weight.
As soon as she finished speaking, the bear cub writhed his body, broke free from her arms, and wandered into the corner to eat the little dried fish he had hidden.
It is impossible to lose weight, it is impossible to lose weight in this life.
Why do you want to lose weight if you eat so fat with your ability?
This is probably the inner OS of the bear cub, but no one knows what the cat is thinking, only that it is resistant to losing weight.
In fact, most of Yu Coco's weight loss is verbal, and the reason why she said weight loss is mainly because she is tired of eating meals recently.
Even if I go to the restaurant to eat, I have eaten many meals, and I have no interest at all.
She kicked Xu Zhuo, who was lying on the sofa and playing with her mobile phone, "Can you make a new dish today......?"
In fact, not only is Coco a little tired of eating, but the rest of the family is also a little unappetizing.
However, the temperature is a little high during the Chinese New Year this year, and the ingredients prepared will spoil if you don't eat them quickly, so even if you eat enough, you have to pinch your nose to eat.
At this time, it is usually the old man who comes out to top the tank, because all the New Year's goods prepared at home are set by him, and he buys dozens of catties of meat.
originally thought that there were more than ten people in the two families, plus Wei Junming's two families, so many people must have to prepare some New Year's goods.
As a result, there are all left, and although they are eating every meal, everyone would rather make up a few pickles than eat the dishes prepared for the New Year, which is really ......
After playing a game, Xu Zhuo got up and sat up from the sofa and said, "Today, I will make a new dish that you haven't eaten, Guizhou spicy chicken, and also improve our food." ”
After speaking, he picked up his mobile phone and called Jianguo and asked him to send two slaughtered big roosters over.
"Guizhou spicy chicken, is it different from the spicy chicken of Sichuan cuisine?"
Yu Keke is very curious, she likes to eat spicy chicken, but she can't stand the spicy taste, so she hasn't dared to eat it in the past few days.
The old man smiled and said: "Guizhou spicy chicken is really good, but if you want to eat spicy chicken, how good is it to eat Zaozhuang directly, Guizhou's also use glutinous chili peppers, you may not be used to it......"
As he was talking, he noticed that the old lady was glancing this way, and quickly changed his tone: "But you can taste it if you want, Xiao Zhuo, I will leave it to you for today's lunch." ”
Soon, Jianguo drove two slaughtered big roosters, and by the way, he also brought some fresh vegetables.
As his status grew, Mr. Charles became more and more decent.
After sending him away, Xu Zhuo washed his hands and went to the kitchen and began to cook.
According to the different practices and tastes, Guizhou spicy chicken is also subdivided into different genres such as Guiyang spicy chicken and Zunyi spicy chicken.
The biggest difference between Guizhou spicy chicken and Geyueshan spicy chicken is that Guizhou's unique glutinous chili pepper is used in the production process.
This chili pepper is not so strong, but it has a lot of flavor, and it is the perfect partner with the crispy chicken.
Soak the two roosters in water to remove the blood, Xu Zhuo took this opportunity to plan to make the glutinous chili pepper first.
Glutinous chili pepper is almost a unique seasoning in Guizhou, and the reason for making it is that the chili pepper in Guizhou was too spicy and dry, and it was too easy to get hot when eaten.
Here, we have to talk about the difference between Sichuan and Guizhou, Sichuan belongs to the basin, the climate is cold and humid all year round, and the local people will eat a lot of chili pepper in order to dispel dampness.
However, Guizhou belongs to the plateau region, which is a typical subtropical plateau monsoon area, and the temperature is low as a whole, and it is easy to get hot when eating too spicy chili peppers, so there is the appearance of glutinous chili peppers.
The chili pepper is to remove the spicy taste of the chili pepper with hot water, so that the chili pepper becomes fragrant but not strong, the spicy taste is soft and long, and it is not easy to get hot after eating too much.
In addition, the difference between the people of the two places is that the Sichuan people think that chili pepper is everything, but the people of Guizhou regard wine as life.
In the face of the cold, Sichuan people will choose to eat hot pot, eat boiled fish, and eat all spicy and sweaty dishes, while Guizhou people will only silently touch out the wine bottle and pour a big sip on their heads.
There are two kinds of chili peppers used to make glutinous chili peppers, the original version is Zunyi chili pepper and Guizhou Chaotian pepper, but there is no one at home at this time, and it is not easy to buy, so Xu Zhuo used Sichuan Qixing pepper and Hunan Chaotian pepper instead.
These two kinds of chili peppers, one was brought by Wei Junming when he came, and the other was Yuan Desheng heard that Xu Zhuo was sitting on spicy chicken a few years ago, and sent more than 100 catties from Hunan.
At that time, the old man was still disgusted, but then he packed a plastic bag and took it home.
Boil a pot of water and put two kinds of dried chili peppers in and simmer for about ten minutes.
Of course, you can also cook for a longer time, the longer the time, the lower the spiciness, and the shorter the time, the higher the spiciness.
It is said that the locals in Guizhou use hot water to soak it and finish the work, and it is not cooked at all.
However, the people who eat today, the Yu family will not talk about it, living in Yangzhou, which does not know what spicy tastes like, although the Xu family is better, it is also a slightly spicy level in the eyes of Sichuan people, so Xu Zhuo still honestly cooks in the pot.
Well, eating spicy food is not something that can be pretended to be bold, and exceeding the tolerance value will really make people crazy.
After the chili pepper was boiled in the pot for about ten minutes, Xu Zhuo took it out with a colander spoon, drained it in a basket, cut it a few times with a knife and put it into the garlic mortar, then put in a few cloves of garlic and a piece of ginger, and sprinkled a small spoon of salt.
Then mash it with a garlic pestle, and it becomes the glutinous pepper that Guizhou people will never forget.
After the chili pepper is ready, dig it out and put it in a bowl for later use, and then Xu Zhuo takes out the soaked rooster in the pot and begins to chop it.
The chicken pieces used to make Guizhou spicy chicken are about two centimeters square, which is similar to the pieces of Zaozhuang spicy chicken.
It can't be too big, it's too big for the flavor to soak, but if it's small, it looks too broken, and it doesn't have the charm of Guizhou spicy chicken.
Unlike Geyueshan Spicy Chicken, which picks diced meat in the pepper pile, Guizhou Spicy Chicken is really meat-based.
Once the chicken pieces are chopped, place them in a bowl and start marinating.
Put a spoonful of salt, a spoonful of pepper, a few peppercorns, two spoons of cooking wine and ginger slices of green onions, and a little sweet sake lees in the basin.
Stir well, pour in some cooking oil and sprinkle a small handful of dry starch.
The purpose of adding sweet sake lees is to add color, and when cooked in hot oil, the meat will be more red and bright, making it look more attractive.
As for the dry starch, it is also to lock in the moisture in the meat and give the meat a crispy taste.
After everything was done, Xu Zhuo was just about to go out to rest for a while, only to find that the bear cub was sneakily hiding to the side, and his eyes glanced straight into the pot of cured meat.
"Meow~"
Seeing that Xu Zhuo had discovered himself, the fat cat hurriedly came over and rubbed Xu Zhuo's trouser leg.
This......
Xu Zhuo smiled helplessly, then pinched out a few pieces of good-sized skinless chicken from a small bowl next to the marinating meat bowl, walked out of the kitchen, bent down and put it into the cat bowl that the bear cub used for eating.
"This is the chicken thigh meat left for you, if you like it, if you like it, I will get you more later." ”
Xu Zhuo wiped his hands, rubbed the bear cub's head and sat on the sofa, quietly watching this thing eat raw meat.
Recently, Xu Zhuo has also investigated the benefits and disadvantages of feeding cats raw bone meat, for carnivores, eating raw meat is fundamental, but the problem of parasites also has to be considered.
So whether to feed it or not, Xu Zhuo's heart is not at the bottom, it depends on the bear's acceptance of raw meat and physical reaction.
If you have diarrhea and soft stools after eating, then dispel this idea as soon as possible so as not to cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
But if there is no discomfort and it likes to eat, then gradually increase the amount of raw meat and slowly let it get used to it.
A few pieces of chicken were quickly eaten clean by the cat, and after eating, it licked the bowl seriously, and then barked at Xu Zhuo, looking unfinished.
"I'll feed you in the afternoon, that's all for the morning. ”
As if he understood, the bear cub didn't shout for it, but jumped onto the sofa, lying quietly beside Xu Zhuo, and snoring softly.
After about twenty minutes of marinating the chicken nuggets, Xu Zhuo got up from the sofa and began to cook.
There is a lot of two chickens, so Xu Zhuo deliberately changed the cauldron to make it.
Heat the pot, pour oil into it, slide the pan and pour it out, and pour in the cold oil again.
At this step, pour more oil, so that the chicken pieces can lock in the moisture as soon as they are put into the pan, so that the moisture in the meat will not be released.
The oil temperature was seventy percent hot, and Xu Zhuo took the chicken pieces and poured them into the pot.
Then use a spoon to keep turning it over, so that the chicken is heated more evenly and avoid uneven cooking.
In fact, this step is very similar to the family version of spicy chicken that Wei Junming taught Xu Zhuo, which is to fry the chicken pieces through the oil first, and then do the next step until the chicken is fried.
Because of the sweet sake lees, soon after the chicken pieces are put into the pot, they show a ruddy color, which is relatively light at first, but as the frying time increases, the color becomes more and more ruddy.
Wait until the chicken is ruddy and dry, and it's ready to cook.
Xu Zhuo used a colander to remove all the chicken pieces from the pot and put them in a stainless steel basket to drain the oil.
Pour out the oil from the pan first, then clean the oil residue at the bottom of the pan, then slide the pan again, add two tablespoons of oil from the fried chicken nuggets, and then add a spoonful of lard.
The purpose of lard is mainly to increase the flavor, but due to the improvement of cost and health concept, many places are not putting lard now.
If it weren't for the level of this D-grade dish today, Xu Zhuo would have saved this big spoonful of lard.
Soon, the oil in the pot melted, and when the oil was hot, he turned down the heat, and then poured the chili peppers he had made before into the pot.
Stir the chili peppers with a spoon and fry them slowly until fragrant.
This step can not be rushed, only low heat and slow frying, in order to completely stimulate the aroma of the chili pepper.
As the chili peppers were put into the pot, the kitchen door was soon crowded with people.
No way, this spicy taste and fragrance are too tempting for the two families who have lost their appetite, and Yu Keke, who has been clamoring to diet to lose weight, even wants to take a steamed bun and dip it in the pepper in the pot to eat.
When the color of the chili peppers in the pot began to deepen, it meant that the chili peppers had been fried, Xu Zhuo scooped a little bean paste and put it in, and then quickly slid it away with a spoon.
The main purpose of adding bean paste is to increase the color, so not too much, so as not to make the chicken salty.
After stir-frying the red oil, Xu Zhuo poured the chicken pieces into it, then poured in a bowl of water, and then kept turning it with a spoon.
One of the most prominent features of Guizhou spicy chicken is that it is moist, if it is made dry, it means that it is not up to par.
Add water and simmer slightly, which can not only allow the spicy flavor to penetrate into the chicken, but also make the chicken nuggets highlight the moist characteristics.
And at this time, adding a bowl of water to the pot can make the peppers cool down quickly and avoid the situation of fried paste.
Taking advantage of the soup in the pot, Xu Zhuo began to season.
Pour some light soy sauce for flavoring, sprinkle a little sugar for freshness, and the taste will be adjusted.
When the soup in the pot is dry and only red oil is left, Xu Zhuo puts in the garlic sprouts, stir-fry a few times, and then put it out of the pot and put it on the plate!
"Wow! It's so fragrant, I'm going to eat three bowls today, who, all, no, allow, stop!"
After Yu Keke, a weight loss expert, sighed, he happily came to Xu Zhuo's side, and started shooting with his mobile phone.
Well, before eating, you have to post a wave in the circle of friends to prove that you haven't eaten the leftovers of the Spring Festival today......
