Chapter 1127: Osmanthus Glutinous Rice Lotus
Xu Zhuo explained to Yu Keke the reason why the bear cub was afraid of heat, and this girl finally understood.
Half an hour later, the takeaway arrived, and a few stir-fried dishes were served with a soup, plus rice, and the little two had a lot of fun.
During the meal, people in the company kept coming to ask when the osmanthus glutinous rice lotus would be good, obviously, everyone couldn't wait.
"Everyone should eat, I'll bring it to you when it's ready, don't worry, eat lunch first." ”
At two o'clock in the afternoon, only half of the soup in the casserole was left, and the skin of the lotus root in the pot had become a little crimson, and the whole lotus root had become soft and glutinous, and the heat could be turned off.
Xu Zhuo turned off the fire on the stove, put the casserole aside, lifted the lid, and began to cool.
At this time, the lotus root in the pot has become very soft, so it can't be moved, so you have to wait for the temperature to cool down before changing the knife to the plate, and by the way, pour the nectar made of osmanthus on it.
When cooled, the lotus root will harden slightly, and it will be easy to form if you change the knife.
And soaking it in the pot at this time can make the sweetness in the soup better penetrate into the lotus root, making the lotus root taste better.
This step is not simple, but the cooling is very slow, because the sugar content of these soups in the pot is high, and the cooling is slow, Xu Zhuo waited for more than an hour, and the temperature of the soup and lotus root in the pot only dropped, to the point that it was not hot.
While waiting for the lotus root to cool down, Xu Zhuo was not idle, he scooped out a small pot of soup from the pot, and then took the sugar osmanthus that had been prepared a long time ago, and began to boil the honey poured on the lotus root.
However, when boiling the honey, you have to strain the soup a little first, and take out the wolfberry and red dates that are used for flavor when boiling.
After taking it out, Xu Zhuo put a wok on the wok and poured the soup into it, then poured in a small pot of sugar osmanthus, and slowly stirred it with a spoon.
Because the soup itself was hot, and there was not a lot of it, it was quickly boiled, and the aroma of osmanthus began to permeate the room.
The smell was so enticing that several videographers who came over couldn't help but sniffle.
But this alone is not enough, when the soup in the pot boils, Xu Zhuo hooked a little water starch into the pot, which not only makes the soup appear more viscous, but also has a higher transparency, which will make people more appetizing.
Next, he poured some peanut oil into the pot, which made the honey smell stronger and looked more oily, making people very appetizing at first sight.
Honey juice is only qualified if it is bright and viscous.
After doing this, Xu Zhuo turned off the heat, poured the boiled honey into a small basin to cool, and poured the lotus root on after it was cut.
These honeys are ruddy in color, full of aroma, and are also dotted with some osmanthus flowers, which can be said to be full of color and fragrance.
After the juice is done, it is left to change the lotus root to the knife and put it on the plate.
When the lotus root was not hot, Xu Zhuo carefully fished out the lotus root in the pot with a colander.
He first removed all the toothpicks on the previous lotus root head, and put the lotus root head aside, there was no glutinous rice in it, and the appearance was slightly worse, so he didn't put it on the plate.
After getting these things done, Xu Zhuo took a slicing knife and placed the lotus root full of glutinous rice on the board, first cutting the lotus root vertically to divide the lotus root in two.
Then cut the lotus root into semi-circular thick slices.
You have to pay attention when cutting, because the glutinous rice in the lotus root eye is relatively soft and glutinous, and it is easy to be brought out by the knife, so the knife should be stable and fast when cutting, only in this way can the glutinous rice stick to the kitchen knife.
After cutting, Xu Zhuo brought a long plate and placed the sliced glutinous rice evenly in it.
Then use a spoon to scoop up a spoonful of still some warm osmanthus nectar juice, evenly pour it on the lotus root, and a piece of osmanthus glutinous rice root is considered to be completed.
The surface of this osmanthus glutinous rice root is ruddy, and the color becomes lighter the further you go to the middle, forming a beautiful gradient color.
In this gradient lotus root, the glutinous rice in the lotus root's eyes still maintains a white color, which is even more gluttonous in contrast.
As for the osmanthus nectar juice poured later, it is more like the finishing touch, which not only makes the glutinous rice lotus on the plate look up a lot, but also gives people a very high-end feeling.
Anyway, it looks delicious, so I want to pinch a piece and taste it.
Xu Zhuo placed it on the dining table next to him for the cameraman to take a close-up, and then he cut the remaining half of the lotus root into thick slices and placed it on the plate as well.
After he made a plate of osmanthus glutinous rice lotus, he put it on the tray and went to the employees of the company under the shooting of several videographers.
In the face of a few shots that follow the same pace, Xu Zhuo is a little uncomfortable, because it makes him always feel like he is acting.
Originally, it was just an interest to make something for everyone to eat, and I didn't think about it so much, but with the intervention of the company's leaders, this matter actually developed into a model for the CEO to go to the countryside to condole.
But everyone is for the good of the company, Xu Zhuo didn't say much, he took this osmanthus glutinous rice root next to the office to send it, so that everyone could taste their own craftsmanship.
Soon, all kinds of praises and surprises came into Xu Zhuo's ears.
Everyone knows that Xu Zhuo's craftsmanship is high, but they didn't expect that the osmanthus glutinous rice lotus made would be so delicious, much stronger than that made in ordinary restaurants, and even made people feel reluctant to eat.
Xu Zhuo turned around and gave it to everyone, and then he had time to sit down and taste his craft.
He took a piece of semi-circular glutinous rice lotus with disposable chopsticks and sent it into his mouth, the glutinous rice root at this time is not hot in the mouth, and there is no cold feeling, and the entrance is very comfortable and warm.
This warmth allows the honey to retain the fragrance of osmanthus and at the same time keeps the honey from being too viscous and mushy.
In addition, this kind of warmth can also keep the glutinous rice root the best taste, that is, it is slightly hard and soft and glutinous, so that the glutinous rice root is formed, which is convenient to eat with chopsticks.
But after taking the mouth, you can taste the soft and glutinous texture of the lotus root with a gentle sip of your tongue.
This taste, combined with the glutinous rice inside, makes people feel like they have won the jackpot.
In addition, whether it is glutinous rice or lotus root, it tastes sweet and silky, but it is not the kind that is sweet and greasy, but slightly sweet, giving people a feeling of nothingness.
This feeling is really good, and with the honey poured outside, it makes people want to eat it more and more.
Soon, a plate of osmanthus glutinous rice lotus was eaten by Xu Zhuo into his stomach, and after eating, he immediately made a decision: new one!
Such a delicious dish can't be tucked away, so you have to hurry up to make money in the store, and even Xu Zhuo also considered whether to make it into a vacuum-packed style and launch a new one in Xu Xiaochu's official flagship store.
While he was thinking about it, Yu Keke ran in with an empty plate: "What's more, it's so delicious, I can't eat enough at all." ”
After seeing Xu Zhuo shaking her head, the girl immediately announced something: "From tonight onwards, I will eat a plate of osmanthus glutinous rice lotus every day!"
Xu Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to lose weight?"
Yu Keke's expression froze, and the smile disappeared instantly: "You really think I'm fat, don't you? You really think I'm fat, don't you? I know that you think I'm fat......"
Then she used a killer move, touching the porcelain Xu Clumsy, and forcibly turned the plate of osmanthus glutinous rice lotus that was originally planned for the evening into two plates.
Tsk, old weight loss guys.
