2058 The Source of Umami

"Liu Dadao, why do you have so many questions? Do whatever you want, this is the Yellow Evil Doctor, haven't you heard of it before you got on the boat?"

Liu Dadao seems to love the job of a chef very much, and he can be given a dedication award for today's performance. [Latest chapter reading.]

"Chief Jin, what are you doing here? This is the big kitchen, why did you bring the doctor in, and we are not sick!"

"Oh, you kid is talking a lot of nonsense, this is the order of the Führer, do you know, do you understand the order!" Jin Sanshun shouted with standing eyes.

Liu Dadao is also a person who has seen the world, he has experienced the winds and waves in the Forbidden City, how can he be afraid of these Chinese officials, he is neither humble nor arrogant, he said "Sir, if you want to say something else, of course I have to listen to orders, but if you want to say that the kitchen is an acre of three points of land, you have to listen to me!"

"My good sir, don't you look at what time the clocks are now?It's past half past eleven, and all our dishes have been prepared, cold dishes platter, hot dishes are cut, soup dishes are being simmered."

"Everything is going according to plan! At this time, if a layman messes around and spoils a few dishes, you can't afford to pay for it! We won't have time to do it anymore, and we're not immortals."

Jin Sanshun became angry when he heard it, "Hey, the capital can't hold you down, save the driver once, your tail is up in the sky."

I wanted to say more, but the Yellow Evil Doctor laughed, and he pulled Jin Sanshun and motioned for him to stop talking, "Chef Liu, right? Don't worry, I won't ruin your dish, I'm just here to add a little spice to your four soup dishes."

"Don't look at me with cannibalistic eyes, this secret spice is a secret recipe handed down by the Führer, if it weren't for the banquet of British dignitaries, the Führer would be reluctant to take it out"

"Secret recipe, the secret recipe spice of the Führer's family!" Liu Dadao was stunned for a moment.

Huang Evil Doctor took out a palm-sized flat porcelain pot from his arms, the glaze is bright, the blue and white colors are smart and lively, and there is also a section of the official kiln of Chenghua year at the bottom, although it cannot be said to be a precious antiquity, but it is not an ordinary product, and it is also a good product that can be put on the auction house for more than a hundred years.

can use the spices contained in Chenghua porcelain, Liu Dadao didn't dare to slack off, but he was still a little skeptical, "I can say okay, try it with a soup first, if it is ruined, I can still remedy it, don't come nonsense"

"Cheng Chengcheng listens to you, what is the soup today?"

"Braised pearl cabbage with abalone, mussel shrimp roe soup, West Lake beef soup, and the secret hoof flower soup that Chef Liu is best at!"

Evil Doctor Huang tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Isn't the abalone and mussels a little overlapping?

"Hey, hey, what do you say, come up and find fault with me!" Liu Dadao's eyes suddenly widened, "Sir Jin, listen, is this here to cook? Isn't this here to find fault?"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the yellow evil doctor walk to the coal stove and reach out to open the casserole, and immediately found the two soup dishes, before everyone could react, there was a muffled bang, the red cloth seal on the porcelain bottle was pulled off, and the faint brown powder was sprinkled into the soup.

"Oh, my ancestor, didn't I say let you try one dish first, why did you scatter two dishes at once! You killed me," Liu Dadao rushed forward like a vicious dog guarding food.

Doctor Huang didn't conflict with him, he took half a step back, pointed to the two soups and said with a smile, "Stir it well with a spoon, you taste it, and then it's not too late to settle accounts with me."

Liu Dadao rubbed his hands, glared at him, grabbed a wooden spoon and stirred it gently in the mussel shrimp roe soup, then scooped up a spoonful of the bottom soup, and carefully sucked it into his mouth.

At that moment, Liu Dadao seemed to have been struck by lightning, and his eyes were rounder and bigger than a cow's eyes, "What is this, this, this?"

Swallowing the soup in his mouth, Liu Dadao shouted "clear tea, clean water", and the Lu vegetable master next to him hurriedly handed over a cup of Longjing tea and a cup of boiled water.

After rinsing his mouth with clear tea, he rinsed his mouth with water, and then Liu Dadao took another mouthful of mussel soup, this time it was a spoonful, and after the thick soup in his mouth, a happy expression came up.

Putting down the spoon and rinsing his mouth, he tasted the abalone stewed pearl cabbage, but the same shocked expression was revealed, and the chefs around him were dumbfounded, "What's the matter? What kind of taste, let me taste it"

A group of people rushed over, stretched out their spoons to taste it, and as soon as the soup was entered, everyone exclaimed, "Fresh! Oh my God, how can it be so fresh?"

Mussels and abalone, including shrimp, are all famous seafood specialties, and have always been precious raw materials for soup, in the hearts of these Manchu chefs, the soup made with these ingredients is already the limit of umami, how can there be more umami than these ingredients in the world?

In ancient times, people extracted umami, in fact, they could not rely on broth, chicken soup, pork bones, including seafood boiled stock, used to cook other ingredients, can provide a special umami.

According to the results of modern chemical research, the umami of broth is actually the precipitation of glutamate in the ingredients, and the source of umami is obtained from glutamate.

Huang Xie Doctor finally succeeded, the first monosodium glutamate of mankind was finally born in his hands, and Xiao Letian's money-making plan was one more important one, this secret recipe earned tens of millions of silver dollars in Europe in the following decades.

"Give me, show me!" Liu Dadao rushed up like a madman to snatch the porcelain bottle in the hands of the Yellow Evil Doctor, but the Yellow Evil Doctor hid behind Jin Sanshun in fright like protecting his life.

"Be careful, be careful! This is the secret recipe of the Führer's family, this bottle is worth 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver, can you afford to break it?"

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and bring the stock, I'll add a little bit to you, and then how to use the stock to stir-fry, it's your job!"

Liu Dadao bowed excitedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was offended just now! I'll just take a look, I'll be careful and careful, or you pour me a little."

A pinch of brown powder particles was sprinkled in Liu Dadao's palm, and he gently dipped his index finger in saliva and tasted it, and the strong umami taste like substance rushed straight to his brain.

The ancients had never eaten MSG, their taste buds were still very fragile, and they couldn't withstand the impact of MSG at all, and Liu Dadao's tears of excitement remained.

"Does the Yellow Evil Doctor have a name for this spice?"

Huang Evil Doctor put away the porcelain vase and pretended to be mysterious, "Of course it has a name, this thing is called the source of freshness, the head of state said, this is the source of all things umami, it is the root of umami!"

"The source of freshness, the source of freshness, a good name, is really worthy of the name! You say, what should I do?"

Huang Evil Doctor smiled and said, "It's very simple, cook the dishes well, let our Duke of Newcastle completely convince the source of freshness, you can use it as you like, it's really not good, poppy husks are all made!"

"You must be shocked by the Duke, in the future, our products will open the European market, but it will rely on the word-of-mouth publicity of the British aristocracy!"
