Chapter 929: Mapo Tofu
The second dish in Yuanzhou is boiled pork slices, but this boiled meat slice is different from the outside, this meat slice is tender white, not the pale red color of the pork itself.
Because of the appetizer of the previous cold dish, the boiled pork slices served on the table soon saw the bottom.
This boiled pork slice was served in a deep-sea bowl, sprinkled with finely chopped green onions, and the hot oil was boiled, and Yuan Zhou directly pressed the fragrance with a wooden lid before uncovering it and serving it to the table.
At this time, the green onions are bright green, the meat slices are tender and white and large, and the red and spicy soup is a milky white broth, and people can't help but want to taste this unique taste of meat slices when they are served.
"This time, the old man is unceremoniously tasted first. Zhou Shijie was more polite than Li Yanyi, and after speaking, he started to eat when everyone had no objection.
After Zhou Shijie clamped the first chopstick, the rest of the people also began to clip it, but everyone's chopsticks were fast.
"It seems that people are very hungry when they eat. The flat-headed man watched a few people eat boiled meat slices, his stomach gurgled, and then he said in his heart.
"It's definitely the same as instant noodles, it looks fragrant and tastes average. The flat-headed man secretly warned himself in his heart that if he can't eat grapes, he said that grapes are sour, which is a particularly good virtue.
"President, you just ate it first, and I should taste this last slice. Hu Yue held down the last piece of meat with chopsticks and said with a serious face.
"President Zhou, this last slice should be carefully tasted by me, the president of Sichuan cuisine, you have eaten here many times before, this opportunity should be given to me. Zhang Yan also spoke.
"Don't argue, when it comes to quality, it should naturally be up to me. Li Yan along.
"Respect the old and love the young, this last piece should naturally be eaten by me. President Zhou said with a smile.
The suggestion on the side, Ma Cheng and Zhao Xin, glanced at each other, reluctantly put down the chopsticks, and just looked at the last piece of meat in the bowl with reluctance.
After all, Zhou Shijie and the four of them are all scrambling, where is their share, it is not a grade, and they dare not move their chopsticks.
"I'm empty, I'll have to come here and order again. Ma Cheng said secretly in his heart.
"I'm here to find out the news of Shulou, not because it's delicious. Zhao confidently justified himself.
There are a lot of scenes in the selection group here, and there are also a lot of scenes in the hearts of the flat-headed men filmed outside.
"I didn't feel so hungry yesterday, I must have eaten too little for breakfast, it must have been. The flat-headed man and the person shooting on the side thought of it in unison.
Just when a few people watched indignantly as Zhou Shijie and the others grabbed the vegetables, Yuan Zhou had already started to make the third dish.
And after Zhou Shijie and the others returned to Zhou Shijie in the last piece of meat, the scramble also came to an end.
"Speaking of this jade-white meat, what do you think?" In order to prove that this meat was not eaten for nothing, Zhou Shijie spoke.
"I don't know how to do it, but I've seen such a record. Li Yanyi glanced at Zhou Shijie angrily, but still spoke.
"What Mr. Li is talking about is the record of Zhang Da painter and Zhang Daqian?" Hu Yue said.
"Yes. Li Yan nodded.
"Maya raw stir-fried beef, but this dish?" Zhang Yan thought about it and said the name directly.
"This dish is Zhang Daqian's own creation, beef and fungus fried together, after the pot fungus and meat slices are black and white, it is very good-looking, but this dish can not be made according to the legend. Li Yan along.
"That's right, but I think this is how this piece of meat should be done. Zhou Shijie first nodded in affirmation Li Yanyi said, and then said.
"But cutting thin slices and rinsing them with water is not going to achieve such an effect. Zhang Yan frowned.
"But it does taste like pork loin, full of fragrance, not like washed water. Hu Yue also nodded.
In fact, there is a record in the book that Zhang Yan said that Zhang Daqian's self-created dish Maya fried beef, saying that it only needs to cut the beef into thin slices, rinse it under the faucet with a sieve for 20 minutes, and then add a small amount of starch to adjust the water, and then stir-fry it in hot oil to have such an effect.
However, this is difficult to do, not to mention that pork is different from beef, if pork is flushed like this, where will it taste meaty, I am afraid that there is only a taste of water-infused pork.
"Others may not be able to, but this Xiao Yuan just made three spices to put in the sea not long ago, which is the dish recorded in the ancient book "Song Miscellaneous", and the degree of completion is 100%. Zhou Shijie said the big news with a smile.
"Isn't that a legend?" Zhang Yan couldn't help but say.
"Is it an ancient recipe?" Hu Yue had never heard of this, so he asked directly.
"No, it's just a miscellaneous book, which says that it has the taste, appearance and name of this dish, but it's a pity that it doesn't record the method, but then Xiao Yuan studied it for three days and made it. Zhou Shijie said lightly.
"This forced pretending is a little obvious......" Hu Yue was choked for a moment, and couldn't help but say in his heart.
"If you have talent, you can bully people like this?" Zhang Yan looked at Yuan Zhou with the wrong eyes.
But isn't it, a dish that only records the name of the dish in ancient books can be made after three days of research, can it really be so bullying?
"It is the boy's duty to study and cook, and there is nothing to boast about, lest he hear pride. Li Yan smiled on his face, but said sternly.
"Hehe, can you not pretend to be forced?" Hu Yue was speechless.
"It's a bit fake to make a finished product with a name, so powerful and so modest. Hu Yue didn't say anything when he said this, but just looked at Yuan Zhou.
Of course, he also had a plan in his heart, and when this event was over, he was going to give Yuan Zhou an exclusive interview, not to mention it.
Zhou Shijie praised it very well this time, so that the people on the side were silent, and Ma Cheng admired it in his heart.
As for Zhao Xin, he naturally adheres to the mentality of "don't listen or don't listen, Wang Ba recites the scriptures."
"The third course, mapo tofu, please use it slowly. The third course served by Yuan Zhou broke the silence of several people.
The mapo tofu served by Yuan Zhou was packed on a flat square plate, and the small square tofu was neatly stacked.
Each piece faces the diner's side with a jade-like texture, delicate and fair, while the other sides are coated with a thin layer of red sauce, which looks red and shiny, and is sprinkled with fine green garlic foam.
The middle of the tofu is also dotted with golden-red meat grains, and the meat grains are perfectly integrated in the middle of the tofu.
If you look closely, you can see a little bit of reddish-brown dots, which are the peppercorns sprinkled by Yuan Zhou at the end.
It's this little peppercorn that makes the whole dish come alive and smell a strong aroma.
"Good looks. Seeing such mapo tofu, Li Yanyi said first.
"I still have to eat it. This time, Zhang Yan was not polite, and directly picked up the chopsticks and prepared to clip them.
"That's right, you should eat it. Hu Yue nodded in agreement and was ready to eat.
