225 What is not enough is what is lost, but what is more than is made

The pork on the cutting board has been cut into countless pieces, red, white and white.

Zhou Dong didn't need to look closely, he knew that these were just ordinary pork, which was exactly what he wanted.

The so-called ordinary refers to pork that does not deliberately take special positions such as crescent meat and tenderloin on the golden cartilage, except for the unhealthy blood neck meat, there are pork head meat, pork shoulder meat, and pork knuckle meat...... Almost every part of the pig is found.

The material of the pork itself is still good, although it is not a high-priced organic blackened pig, Tibetan fragrant pig in the pig nobles, but also a serious Guangzhou Province white pig, half feed and half grain feeding, a full year to slaughter the standard breed.

Because of the times, the quality of these pork even needs to be improved in Zhou Dong's opinion, after all, the kind of raw fried meat cake rice full of 'fireworks in the world' is the black pork used, and the black pigs fed by traditional feeding methods are not comparable to the pig breeds that come down and down the assembly line of the meat factory now.

This poor man's meal, if placed in the eyes of modern people, looks like a polarized freak.

The pig breed in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China era is definitely the envy of modern people, but in that era, rich people did not look down on this kind of poor people's food.

At that time, eating this kind of meal was basically bitter haha, and you can still choose the best positions such as pork ribs and tenderloin?

The poor woman clutched a few pitiful tickets and waited until the pork shop was about to close before she could buy some cut leftovers at the cheapest price to make a meal of meat for a man who had worked hard all day.

Even Guan Dasheng may not have eaten this kind of real 'live-in poor people's meal', and the taste he misses is basically in the era when raw fried meat cake rice became a representative delicacy and entered the tea restaurant.

Zhou Dong believes that Guan Dasheng's so-called authenticity is just that the tea restaurant at that time still retains a bit of the taste of home-based meals, but how can this craftsmanship compare to those clever women who are 'often cooked without rice'?

The clever women who made the raw fried meatloaf rice back then may not be a chef, but they will definitely treat this rare 'feast' wholeheartedly.

Because this poor man's meal not only contains fireworks in the world, but also their love for men, and their expectations for the future!

"I really don't understand, why do you choose these pork with the same scraps?

The location is good or bad, the key is that these different parts of the pork have completely different requirements for the heat, and even affect the taste.

Lu Luxin couldn't understand Zhou Dong's thoughts: "Is this what you call 'fireworks in the world'?"

I secretly applauded you when you scolded the old man just now, but now I suspect that you are inflated......"

"It's not that I'm inflated, it's that you, a chef who is accustomed to all kinds of exquisite ingredients beckoning, have long lost your awe of ingredients. ”

Zhou Dong shook his head and said, "The most authentic raw fried meat cake rice was called poor man's rice back then.

Haven't you thought about where those poor families who live in poverty will find the best meat in your eyes?

These leftovers that the flower boss can't look down on, but in the eyes of those wives who love their husbands deeply, they are incomparably precious ingredients.

In their hands, these leftovers will be made into delicious meatloaf rice, so that their husbands can have a delicious meal after a hard day's work.

They may not be as skilled as you, but when it comes to understanding this raw fried meatloaf rice, they are undoubtedly above you. ”

"It's like it's true......"

Where is Lu Luxin willing to believe. Before today, she hadn't seen Zhou Dong enter the kitchen to practice this raw fried meat patty rice, and she felt that this guy was fooling herself.

"She really didn't believe it, in fact, if I hadn't practiced thousands of times in the back kitchen of creation, I'm afraid I wouldn't have discovered the trick of those skillful women to make this delicacy back then....."

Zhou Dong smiled slightly, and didn't explain much to Lu Luxin, he used a black iron knife to push the minced meat that Lu Luxin had cut in advance into the porcelain basin, took the lard that had been prepared a few days ago, gently cut out a piece, and put it in the pot.

These lard also soaked some tangerine peel in it, and as the temperature in the pot increased, it gradually dissolved, overflowing with a faint sour fragrance.

Seeing that the oil temperature was getting higher, Zhou Dong took a piece of pork belly and began to cut it horizontally with a flat knife.

"What are you doing here?"

Lu Luxin has become accustomed to the identity of 'assistant' these days, and subconsciously thinks that this is his own business, Zhou Dong This guy is really strange, you just said that you want to cut pork belly?

When he saw Zhou Dong's knife clearly, it was even more strange.

Zhou Dong first used a knife to remove the skin of the top layer of pork belly, then peeled off a layer of fat under the skin, and then cut the lean layer under this layer of fat to a very thin one!

Then over this layer of lean meat and the thickest layer of fat in the middle, the bottom layer of lean meat is thinned again, and the bottom layer of fat is also shaved away.

Then there are dozens of pieces left on the cutting board about one centimeter square, the middle part is fat, and the top and bottom are thin and lean meat squares.

Lu Luxin was very strange, what can such a meat party do?

"Boss Hua just said that these leftovers of pork are difficult to handle, which is a fact, which is the biggest defect of raw fried meatloaf rice.

I've been thinking about how they made food under these conditions these days, and after countless exercises, I finally figured out the truth.

Since the shortcomings cannot be concealed, then use the greatest advantages to cover the shortcomings,

If you can describe it in one sentence, it's called 'making up for what is not enough!'"

Oh my God, when have you been practicing countless times, why don't I know, old lady?

Lu Luxin was stunned when she heard this: "Old Zhou, you seem to be saying the opposite, it should be more than what is lost and what is not enough, this is the correct way to solve the principle of the barrel." ”

"I'm not mistaken. ”

Zhou Dong held up these meat recipes with a knife and threw them all into the oil pot that had completely melted.

While gently stirring these freshly added meat recipes with a large spoon, he patiently explained: "A mouthful of aroma is the greatest advantage that this dish can pursue!"

In terms of pork dishes, what is the most flavorful?

Of course, the lard residue is the most fragrant!

What kind of lard residue is the best grade?

Of course, it is refined to eighty and a half, and there is a little bit of lean lard residue on the surface!

It is best to wrap the lard residue with a lean layer on both sides, and these lean layers should not be too thick, as the taste will turn firewood if they are thick. ”

Lu Luxin was stunned: "Lard residue?

Zhou Dong, don't you tell me that your inspiration came from lard bibimbap?"

"It's not my inspiration, it's the women who made it.

Most of them got their inspiration from this, because bibimbap with lard residue is also a satisfying meal for the poor!

Otherwise, would they still be inspired by the moonlit night of the Twenty-Four Bridges?

What is the fireworks in the world, first of all, it must be in the world!

Zhou Dong said in his mouth, but his hands were non-stop, seeing that these meat recipes were gradually refined into thin lard residue on both sides and fat in the middle, he scooped it up with a colander and put it aside to cool it, and then took out a ball of minced meat from the porcelain plate, pressed it into a cake shape, and put it in a pot and fried it over medium-low heat.

After the meatloaf is slightly set, take out the drained oil, spread it flat on the cutting board, and then pick up a chopstick and quickly poke it at the meatloaf until there are countless pits on the meatloaf.

Then the lard residue just refined was stuffed into these pits one by one, put it in the pot and continue to fry it.

Immediately, a stronger aroma of pork came to her face, Lu Luxin shrugged her nose and took a few deep breaths, and an inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind: "The lard with tangerine peel will reduce the greasy feeling, and at the same time improve the taste of the meatloaf......

Because the meatloaf is made of leftovers, the advantage is that the taste is diverse, for example, the taste of the pig's head meat is completely different from the pork shoulder, but the disadvantage is that the taste cannot be unified.

However, the lard residue that you disperse in the meatloaf has a unique aroma and special taste, and when the diner eats the lard residue, its perfect aroma can cover up the defects of the meatloaf itself!

What a wonderful idea, a simple meatloaf can make defects and perfection coexist!

Old Zhou, you ......"

"You finally get the idea. ”

Zhou Dong smiled slightly: "Absolute perfection is only in the sky, if we can make such food, we can use it to make money from those big guys."

Food where perfection and defects coexist belongs to the world.

This kind of food is the ...... of my generation."
