The toad is another name for the Chinese forest frog produced in the Changbai Mountains in the northeast of the mainland, and is also called the snow clam because it is relatively cold-tolerant.

The toad in Shui Bazhen refers to the toad oil, which is taken from the oviduct of the female frog, taken out after drying, and then soaked when it needs to be used.

This knowledge is all provided by the knowledge attribute values that Fernan added a few days ago.

"Toad oil is soft and soft, with a special flavor, but because of the different species of forest frogs and the difference in production technology, the quality of toad oil is also superior. ”

While explaining, Fei Nan walked to the side of the case, took the soaked toad and looked at it, and said: "This kind of clam oil is dried, the color is slightly dark, after soaking, there will be a clam smell, you need to pick out the black tendons, blood, and internal organs to effectively remove it." ”

"But even so, the smell of clams will have a certain residue, if the amount is small, it can be overshadowed by the umami of other ingredients, but Master Liao, you put an extra piece, resulting in a slightly prominent clam smell, so I said you put more than half of it. ”

Liao Jie looked at Fei Nan in surprise, and sighed for a while: "You have tasted this, how does your tongue grow?"

After a pause, he nodded and said: "Indeed, this kind of clam oil is not the best, it does have a little clam smell, and the oil fragrance is relatively light, so I put a little more, but I didn't expect it to be discovered by you." ”

"Huh, shouldn't you?"

Ou Zhaofeng stepped forward in confusion and looked carefully at the soaked toad: "I obviously bought the best toad, how can this be?"

Fernand explains: "The best clam oil is made from snow clams, and it is fresh, the color should be a light milky yellow color, with very few impurities. This clam oil is dark in color, mixed with blood streaks and impurities, and is obviously dried and is inferior to the goods. ”

"Dry, fresh?"

Ozhaofeng asked, "What's the difference?"

"Drying is the drying of snow clams into dried snow clams, and then the clam oil is peeled out. This oil is called lump oil, or conjoined oil. ”

"During the drying process of this clam oil, the internal organs of the snow clams will rot to a certain extent, so they will have a clam smell. ”

"And after drying, and then peeling, the impurities in the clam oil are difficult to remove, and can only be soaked for post-treatment. ”

"But it's also difficult to completely remove impurities after treatment, and there will always be a little residue, which is the source of the clam smell. ”

"With freshly removed clam oil, the situation is much better. ”

"Fresh is to slaughter the forest frogs, directly take out the clam oil, remove impurities, and then dry it. ”

"Because after washing, in order to squeeze out the water, the clam oil will be kneaded into strips, so this kind of clam oil is also called line oil. ”

"The impurity content of the line oil is less, the clam smell is light, it is the best, and the price will naturally be more expensive. ”

Fei Nan said, glanced at Ou Zhaofeng, and the meaning was already obvious.

"Damn! Bastard! How dare you be shoddy!"

Ou Zhaofeng's face was a little unbearable, and he couldn't help but scold.

As a chef, he was deceived by someone about the ingredients, and anyone would be angry.

Long Kunbao comforted and said: "Master Ou, the toad is used a lot in northern cuisine, and this ingredient is out of the place of origin, and the quality is uneven, it is still very normal, maybe your price is a little low?"

"Yes!"

Liao Jie also said: "The production of the best snow clam oil is very small, Xianggang is so far away from the northeast, it is difficult to get the best goods, when I was in Guangdong, I used this kind of inferior clam oil." ”

Hearing them say this, Ou Zhaofeng's face also softened a little.

They are also telling the truth, although there are also frog dishes in southern cuisine, they usually eat frog meat, and it is true that clam oil is relatively rare, let alone snow clams.

The use of this ingredient is indeed one of his shortcomings, which makes him cowardly in front of Fernan.

Although he can't get over face, there is nothing he can do.

No chef can claim to know all the ingredients in the world, and no chef can say that he can cook all the world's dishes.

People's cognition is limited, and it is not shameful not to understand, but it is shameful to know that you don't understand it, but you are not willing to learn.

"Go back and settle accounts with that street fighter!"

Ou Zhaofeng shouted a few words, and then said with a smile: "I don't have a tongue as sharp as Anan, I think this dish is delicious, Anan is nitpicking." ”

"But nitpicking is a good thing, no accumulation of steps can lead to thousands of miles, little by little improvement in details, will always make us more perfect. ”

"Master Liao, it's a pleasure to meet you today, I hope you join my team and help me win next week's Manchurian All-Seat Competition!"

Liao Jie looked at him, then at Fei Nan, naturally agreed, and nodded with a smile: "Okay!

With him joining, Ou Zhaofeng was very happy and said that he would also show his hand and learn from Liao Jie.

Long Kunbao naturally didn't miss it, and he also geared up and got on the stove.

The cooks were divided into three groups to help them prepare the dishes, and the three super chefs controlled the fire and turned the sky upside down, so it was not lively.

One after another delicious food was served to the big table outside, and everyone gathered in the outer hall to hold a dinner.

In order to welcome Liao Jie to join, Ou Zhaofeng deliberately took out the wine stored for many years, and planned to get drunk tonight.

"Anan! With Master Liao joining, I must have deceived your emperor's tongue this time!haha!"

At the end of the dinner, Ou Zhaofeng, who was drunk so much that his tongue was big, sent Fei Nan out of the Manhan Tower, and at the same time did not forget to send a war letter to Fei Nan.

"Okay, then I'll come over on the weekend to taste your creations, don't let me down!"

After persuading Ou Zhaofeng to go back, Fei Nan picked up Xiaobai, took two steps to the car, and suddenly turned to an ordinary car parked across the road.

The sedan didn't start, but a figure could be seen hiding in the car.

Fei Nan walked straight to the front of the car and raised his hand and knocked on the window.

There was silence in the car, and Feinan didn't walk away, but raised his hand and knocked on the window.

Crunch~!

The window was rolled down, revealing the face of a strange man, and he asked with a puzzled expression, "Sir, is there something wrong?"

"Horse reporter, huh?"

Fernan smiled and asked, "I noticed that you seemed to have taken some pictures secretly, right?"

Reporter Ma's expression changed slightly, and then he flatly denied it: "What photo? What kind of reporter Ma? I'm not reporter Ma, you recognize the wrong person, right?"

His expression was a little panicked, his eyes were dodging, and he looked a little weak.

At such a distance, still in the car, how did he find me?

Ignoring his denials, Fernan continued, "I don't like being secretly photographed by others, please hand over the film." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the camera that the reporter had hung around his neck before he had time to take it off.

"Why?"

Reporter Ma stiffened his neck: "This is my private property, why should I hand it over to you? You are a robbery!"

"Oh?"

Fernan shrugged his shoulders, put his hand on the window, leaned down and stared at him, "Okay then!
