Chapter 211: Cooking is like alchemy

"There are not many promotional video machines, and after selling all the promotional machines, the prices on both sides have to be restored to the retail price of the shopping mall, Qianglin has recovered from 20,000 to 32,000 retail prices, and Baisai has to pay more than 31,000. ”

The news came out of the promotion counters of both sides, and the crowd in the square suddenly became commotionous, and everyone squeezed towards the counter.

Liu Hai, who hadn't gone far, felt the movement behind him, and turned around to see the surging crowd.

Smiled and shook his head, the manufacturer's routine is actually clear to everyone, but sometimes it will work, the ordinary people's thinking is very simple - no matter how much profit the manufacturer's price is, as long as it spends less money than other consumers, it is taking advantage.

Back in the courtyard, Liu Hai looked at the time, it was still early, he went to the study to study for a while, and then entered the kitchen to prepare.

She came by car, brought two jars of sake, and the two of them carried the wine to the underground storage room before coming to the kitchen.

"The youngest associate professor of the two colleges in the history of our Bai Yutaixue personally cooked, it is an honor, I have to see what Liu University is doing to entertain me today. Li Jingli usually doesn't smile outside, with a cold face, but today he looks very naughty, and he laughed and checked the ingredients prepared by the bangs in the kitchen: "Wow, look at the texture of this meat, it's Baihua beef, right?"

Bangs gave a thumbs up: "Connoisseur, look at the texture and know that it is Baihua beef." ”

Sister Jing Li said proudly: "I still help the big boss of the family to manage a restaurant, this Baihua beef is grown up eating Baihua grass, the texture of the meat is like snowflakes, it is the top grade in beef, a pound costs hundreds of gold coins, how can I not see it?"

Liu Hai knew that the big boss in her mouth was her mother Li Huiqiong, and Huiqiong's boss had a lot of businesses, including several high-end restaurants and hotels.

Liu Hai said with a smile: "Good ingredients are one thing, food mainly depends on the chef's skills, a good chef cooks dishes like alchemy, let you taste real food today, it will be used as wine money." ”

Cooking like alchemy?

Sister Jingli's eyes lit up, the realm of the junior brother is really high, he is worthy of being a genius scholar, and his understanding of cooking is so unique.

Under the expectant gaze of the senior sister, Liu Hai began to deep process the raw materials.

The processing of ingredients by exquisite chefs is sometimes very complicated, but no matter how complex it is, it is not as complex as bangs, in the eyes of bangs, these ingredients are not only ingredients, but also medicinal materials.

It's like developing a elixir, first of all, he has to set the medicinal properties and medicinal effects of this elixir, he first sets the color, aroma and edible effect of the dish he wants to make, and only then uses the way of processing medicinal materials to process the ingredients.

Braised beef, bright color, strong flavor and slightly spicy, effective abdomen, health.

The main ingredient, Baihua beef, is first processed by fire to remove the excess fat, and then the fire method and water method are shared, and several mixed ingredients are braised in a closed pot.

A closed pot will have a certain Dan furnace effect, of course, this is not a real alchemy after all, and there is no need for an alchemy furnace.

When it is boiled, the bangs strictly calculate the time according to the temperature of the fire, and when the time is up, immediately put the rest of the condiments that have been processed in order.

After that, Liu Hai took out a prepared spiritual fire exciter and released a three-second high temperature against the pot, in this process, using the extraction method that is usually not used in cooking, but commonly used in alchemy, the ultra-high temperature melted beef juice is extracted, and after three seconds, the temperature cools rapidly, and the juice is like the alchemy of the elixir is formed, and it is re-solidified into pieces of beef.

Serve on a plate and serve.

At this point, a special dish of braised beef is ready.

The whole process seems to be uncomplicated, but each procedure is carefully designed by Liu Hai, which also uses the True Yuan Activation Spirit Fire Initiator, and uses the True Yuan to extract the gravy simply.

"You just took the spiritual fire activator as if you were really alchemy, junior brother, do you really regard cooking as alchemy?"

Liu Hai was in a relaxed mood, and when he heard this, he smiled proudly at the senior sister: "Of course, you can taste it and see how it works." ”

When he came to the restaurant, Liu Hai motioned for Li Jingli to try it.

He looked at the colors and smelled them again, which was in line with the goals he had set before cooking.

"Wow, this is amazing, it melts in your mouth, and the soup is so fragrant!"

The senior sister had already put a small piece into her mouth, and after two seconds, she immediately sighed, and her expression suddenly changed: "No, this is ...... This beef actually has the effect of health medicine, and I can feel the qi and blood running faster!"

Senior sister looked at bangs with strange eyes: "Senior brother, you are also ......"

Li Jingli was really surprised, at first he heard Liu Hai say that cooking is like alchemy, and he only felt very profound, but he didn't understand what the connotation of these words was, and when he ate this braised beef made by Liu Hai, he immediately understood.

She has also eaten health meals before, they are expensive to death, those chefs who can make real therapeutic meals are all above the top, once her mother Huiqiong boss wanted to recruit one to open a therapeutic food restaurant, and offered a very high salary, but in the end she didn't get it.

And the dishes made by that chef, whether it is taste or therapeutic effect, are not as good as the braised beef made by bangs.

The braised beef with bangs is simply the use of ingredients to the extreme, the fragrance, and the acceleration of the qi and blood immediately brought by entering the abdomen are a bit incredible!

"Junior brother, how did you do it?"

Liu Hai himself tasted a piece of beef, and carefully perceived the beef soup that turned into his mouth, its taste and medicinal properties were roughly consistent with his own settings, but there were still some subtle differences.

Well, after all, it's not alchemy, and I don't do it many times.

Seeing that the senior sister was curious, Liu Hai explained with a smile: "It's actually very simple, just think about me, cooking is like alchemy, I first set the taste and efficacy of the dish, and then like alchemy, select the ingredients according to the taste and efficacy, understand the characteristics of the ingredients thoroughly like studying medicinal materials, and then use the alchemy technique to process the ingredients and make the ingredients, and that's what the final result is." ”

"You have implemented the whole concept of alchemy in cooking. The senior sister sighed.

Liu Hai smiled slightly: "Actually, it's not unusual, this braised beef, as long as a scholar who is proficient in alchemy can make it with a little research, but the scholar is so busy that he can't study the elixir, how can he have the heart to study ordinary food...... What's more, cooking still has to be the first taste after all, color and aroma are the most important thing in food, not medicinal effects, no matter how a dish is, it can't become a panacea. ”

After a few small talks, Liu Hai made a few other dishes.

After eating and drinking, I came to the living room and talked about seeing two video machine manufacturers fighting in the vegetable market, and I planned to buy two imported color video machines.

"It's simple, my parents are doing import and export trade, including the import of color video machines, my video machine has been replaced with a color one, and when I go back to ask, I will send you two when the time comes." ”

The senior sister has the atmosphere of the capital people in her words, and she wants to help Liu Hai solve the problem when she opens her mouth.

Bangs are not polite, they have foreign exchange coupons, it is not difficult to buy imported color video machines, but after all, it is a troublesome matter, you have to inquire about the purchase channel, and now the senior sister has a ready-made channel, which is just to save trouble.

"What price, I'll transfer the foreign exchange coupon directly to you. ”

"I know the specifics, I'll wait until I go back and ask. ”
