347 The fire of perfection
When the long-lost dog ignorance and boiled fire appeared in front of them, starting from the dragon god, one counted as one, and the old customers were almost about to shed tears of excitement.
The taste is too positive, compared with the craftsmanship of Master Xiao Zhou, the fat man and those early masters are high-imitation A goods, not to mention that today's early department is particularly generous, in addition to the fact that each type of food is still limited, and the category is no longer limited.
In the past, if you buy a dog and ignore it, then you can't buy egg cakes anymore, one is to eliminate waste, and the other is that Zhou Dong is really too busy, and he doesn't want to go to Xiangjiang.
Zhou Dong also specially canceled the practice of dogignoring the need to tie in other breakfasts, which is also the first 'easter egg' he laid after returning to the early department, Liu Changqing was very happy about this, and said with a thumbs up: "Chef Zhou, this egg is laid well, and such a meaningful egg is still laid in our early department, I know that you have never forgotten our early department!"
However, the price of the dog has risen to 50 yuan a cage, and the old customers have said that it is understandable that Huaxia has entered the era of "pig is ruthless enough", and the price of pork has successfully outperformed the wage growth rate.
However, in order to avoid waste, Zhou Dong still stipulates that each diner cannot order more than two breakfast categories, and if you can't eat it, you will be sent to the blacklist of the breakfast department, become an unwelcome guest, and it is strictly forbidden to take out.
"It's the first time I've seen a breakfast department that is not allowed to pack takeout, and this business has both rules and tone, which is the same as that of my eldest brother.
It seems that our brothers are really right, if it weren't for their own craftsmanship, few people would dare to do this business. ”
Lao Erhua looked at the early order with a smile and said: "This list is also exquisite, which early categories are made by other masters, and which are Zhou Dong's craftsmanship, all of which are clearly marked."
It's a pity, I've long heard that Chudu double soup fried buns are a Chudu specialty that can't be missed, but it's not made by Zhou Dong, today Zhou Dong made three kinds of breakfast, Goubuli, Braised and Boiled and Boiled and Chudu Crispy Burned, and the soups that can be matched are double soup, hot porridge, and soy milk......
Let's take a look, what should I order?"
The old Sanniu whisperer said: "Forget about boiling and burning, when our brothers came from Kyoto, they didn't eat less of this, and even Jinmen's has long lost its authentic taste, so don't take the risk of trying, I'll just light two fires, girl, soy milk I know, what is hot porridge? Is it some kind of porridge made of grain?"
The waitress smiled: "Sir, our Chudu's hot porridge is the only one in China, it is not simply boiled with various grains, but with soybean milk that has been filtered out, and fried soybean flour, wheat flour, corn flour, etc., the taste is fragrant.
It's best to pair it with fritters, shortbread, and Chef Zhou's new puff pastry today. ”
Chudu's hot porridge procedure is cumbersome, the taste is unique, it is indeed nowhere else, even the five brothers of Lao Xionggou heard of it for the first time, the five of them were immediately interested, and finally ordered a total of ten puff pastry and five bowls of hot porridge, and the waitress said: "If all the gentlemen order the puff pastry, I'm afraid you will have to wait for nearly an hour, because this kind of food is too slow to come out of the pot, and now there are more than 100 people in front of you......
Yan Xiang was the most anxious, and frowned when he heard this: "You actually have to wait for an hour, are you going to have breakfast or a big meal?"
The waitress smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a puff pastry made by our chef Zhou? Today it is only limited to 300 pieces, if it weren't for the slow puff pastry that came out of the pot in the first place, and Chef Zhou refused to cut corners to speed up, I am afraid that you would not be able to rank......
Xiong Buji nodded and said: "Don't say it, you must know that our brothers are ranked nearly four hundred, and it is already very lucky to be able to eat Chef Zhou's puff pastry."
Girl, we're willing to wait! In addition, I would like to ask, can Chef Zhou allow people to watch while he is cooking the puff pastry?"
"If a few gentlemen are interested, of course you can, our chef Zhou is very generous. ”
"Brothers, let's go and see the methods of King Zhoumian. ”
Xiong Fuji smiled and got up and walked in the direction of the back kitchen, the back kitchen of the breakfast department is different from the general hotel, it is semi-open, only a glass wall interval, the purpose is to let diners know that the materials used in Kyushu Ding Food are the freshest and highest, and the food hygiene problems that people are most worried about will definitely not appear here.
Zhou Dong was busy behind the glass wall, because the early department had officially opened at this time, and the masters of the early department had to be busy, leaving only Pan Ke and other four students to watch, most of the diners cared about the taste of the food, and did not care about how the food was produced, so the five brothers of Lao Xionggou did not have to worry about the sight being obstructed.
At the same time, the right hand grabbed the green onion and sprinkled it evenly on the dough, and then used the dragonfly to dot some salt and lard between the green onions.
"This looks like a green onion dough roll, this kind of dough roll should still be dough, right?"
Wu Tingze is an expert in winemaking, and he is a complete mallet on the white case pasta, this kind of green onion noodle roll he has eaten in Lu Province, and now few people make it, even if the women steam the rolls at home, they will put some shredded radish and tofu or something into it.
Moreover, the noodles used by Zhou Dong are obviously unused, and the taste is estimated to be not much better, and there is no trace of 'puff pastry'.
"Fourth brother, you can see clearly, this is not an ordinary noodle roll, it is oil noodles, and it is not the puff pastry used to knead crispy sesame cakes, etc.
He has kneaded the puff pastry completely into the plain flour, so you won't see a noticeable layer of puff pastry, but this flour will have a better texture than ordinary puff pastry if it is baked properly. ”
Lao Wu Yanxiang is a good hand at white cases, and he is naturally no stranger to the puff pastry noodles that are crispy inside and out, especially very curious about the stove used by Zhou Dong, and he looked at the kitchen intently, looking at it with great interest.
After Zhou Dong rolled the green onion into the dough, he held the two ends of the dough roll with both hands, and gently pressed the dough roll that had been wrapped in green onion into a thick circle, and then gently rolled it with a short rolling pin, it became a rectangle, like a thickened baked cake, and after applying lard on both sides with his hands, he put it upright in a special oven.
On top of the oven is a frying board about half a centimeter thick, with a handle at the end of the frying board, and when it is pulled open, there is a burning hearth, which is burned with fine pine charcoal.
Around the hearth, there is a space in the shape of the word 'Hui', that is, the position where Zhou Dong is used to erect the fire, and there are about twelve or thirteen fires placed side by side on all sides.
And the fire is placed under the frying board to 'fire', which is the first step after the puff pastry is burned into the oven.
Zhou Dong's technique is fast, and in a blink of an eye, twelve fires were placed, at this time, because he pulled out the frying board, a large amount of air poured in, and bursts of red flames rose in the hearth, which was more hot than turning over the hand to burn the cake stove, not to mention that ordinary people had to put the fire below, as long as the hand was close to the fire, it would also feel scorching, but Zhou Dong didn't seem to feel the terrifying heat, and his hands came out together, like butterflies wearing flowers, and the fire was placed both upright and even.
"The first step of the fire is to burn the fire for fifteen seconds, so that the fire can be quickly heated and formed, otherwise it will not stand at all!
In the process of burning, if the green onion in the fire is raw, it will absorb part of the heat, resulting in uneven fire of the part of the noodles in contact with the green onion inside the fire, even if the subsequent procedure is 100% standard, it will also affect the final finished product ......"
Zhou Dong glanced at the five brothers of Lao Xionggou who were standing outside the glass wall, and did not stop explaining, since he got the title of 'Diligent Great Master', he gradually also had a grandmaster-like state of mind, and the more serious the five brothers looked, the more he would feel that 'the children were teachable'.
"This is also the reason why I have fried the green onion in advance, don't underestimate this step, it seems to be irrelevant, but it actually determines whether you can make the perfect puff pastry!
It's the last three seconds! You guys can see it clearly!"
Zhou Dong flipped his hands and went directly through the layers of wood fires, and in just three seconds, he turned over all the twelve fires, and then wrapped the handle of the frying board with a wet towel and covered the frying board on the upper layer of the stove.
This set of stoves specially used to make Chudu puff pastry fire has a unique design, the upper layer of the frying plate is covered, tightly sealed, completely blocking the upper and lower wind paths, and the previous fierce flames will also be instantly suppressed, and around this frying board, some holes the size of rice grains have been opened to ensure that the wind path will not be completely blocked, causing the furnace to go out.
A cover of the frying board, change 'burning' to 'baking' This is the second step of Chudu puff pastry, plus the last step of frying, it can be said that it is a lot of burning, roasting, and frying.
"Old Five, you are also an expert on the white case, what do you think of Chef Zhou?"
The second Huabiao carefully observed for a long time before he spoke out to ask Yan Xiang.
"Sure enough, he is worthy of being the king of Zhoumen......"
Yan Xiang's face was extremely serious, and he didn't have much of the heart to look at the beautiful young lady in the early department at this time.
"'Chestnut in the fire' is actually a practice makes perfect, even the street perennial seller of hand-baked cakes can do it, but even if it is a master who has been doing it for decades, it is impossible to paste the baked cakes so neatly on the hot fire, after all, this set of techniques relies on a fast word, and the radish is fast and does not wash the mud.
But Zhou Dong is different, just now he arranged these dozen fires neatly, and the distance between them is almost the same, which already makes me feel a little incredible, and the most amazing thing is ......"
"The most amazing thing is that before he covered the frying board, he not only turned all the fires over, but it didn't take more than three seconds, and I observed carefully, even if the time was so short, the fires were still neatly placed by him, and even the distance between them did not change!"
Looking at Zhou Dong behind the glass wall, Huabiao had a deep expectation in his eyes: "First burn and then bake, and finally I'm afraid I have to fry it?" It turns out that this is Chudu's puff pastry fire, it is really cumbersome to make, it seems that we have ordered the right thing this time!"
The five brothers are all from the north, and they naturally love pasta, but where would they have thought that the people of Chudu would be so good at eating? This is called fire, and it can almost make outsiders hungry to death!
"It's not just cumbersome, the details of the Chu Du Crisp Fire will be more difficult from now on, if he can still do it perfectly, I will admit that he is the great enemy I have encountered in my life!"
Yan project's light tightened slightly, and he pointed to Zhou Dong behind the glass wall: "This batch of puff pastry is about to be fried on the board, and the barbecue position around the stove below can't be empty......
The exquisite fire master will not continue to do the fire, this is because the charcoal is used below, every five furnaces or so, to go to the charcoal ash, charcoal, Zhou Dong did this stove just before the charcoal was added, the fire in the barbecue position is the first batch after the charcoal is changed, at this time the frying board is still empty.
As soon as Yan Xiang's words fell, Zhou Dong had already pulled open the frying board, and the five brothers saw the palm shadows flying behind the glass wall, and one by one the fires turned out from the hearth, neatly arranged on the frying board, and at the same time, twelve fires were quickly placed by Zhou Dong on the surrounding positions of the lower hearth.
Fifteen seconds!
Zhou Dong opened the frying board like this, using the residual heat on the board, slowly baking the fire that had gone through the two procedures of burning and roasting, calculating that the time had come, quickly closing the frying board, changing the fire below to roasting, and at the same time began to use a wooden spatula to constantly turn the fire on the frying board to heat it evenly.
After the first two procedures, the fire originally showed a kind of tender yellow, and then it was fried by Zhou Dong more than a dozen times, gradually turning red, and the outer layer of puff pastry bulged and became thicker, and through the glass wall, it seemed that you could feel the crispy fragrance and green onion fragrance emitted by the fire.
"It's really powerful, the name of the king of Zhou Mian is worthy of ......"
Yan Xiang was secretly vigilant in his heart, after all, he was an expert in white cases, and naturally he had a hundred songs, although he had never done Chu Du puff pastry fire, he could also see that Zhou Dong's methods were amazing.
Such a continuous process of burning, grilling, and frying pasta, no matter how good the chef is, the color of the roasted skin can never be completely unified, and it is more common to have a few traces of burnt black, but the fire that comes out of Zhou Dong's hands is full of color and luster, and there is no flaw.
He had to admit that Zhou Dong's puff pastry had reached the perfect realm of this kind of pasta.
"Seems delicious......"
Looking at the fire in the bamboo basket, the hot and fragrant, slightly upturned skin was like a transparent red agate, and the five brothers of Lao Xionggou suddenly felt that their appetite increased greatly, and their stomachs began to growl.
