Chapter 187: Radish Dumplings + Beef Soup
"Is it that delicious? I'll try one too." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Ruonan became interested immediately.
"Well, wait a minute. Liu Mang nodded and turned over the dumplings in the oil pot.
The pot is filled with extra virgin olive oil from the Middle East, which has a high smoke point and is the most suitable oil for frying ingredients.
The dumplings fried in this olive oil are not greasy at all and have a natural fragrance.
The dumplings tumbled in the pot and soon changed color, and Liu Mang picked them up with chopsticks and sent them to Li Ruonan's plate.
"By the way, what about Xiaomeng, why didn't you see Xiaomeng?" asked Liu Mang.
Jeba must have gone out to wave at this point, but Xiaomeng is generally there, a big foodie like her, and she will stay in the kitchen all day long.
"Little Dream was sent away by me. Li Ruonan picked up the dumplings and blew gently.
"Send it away, where did you send it?" Liu Mang's eyebrows furrowed.
"Liu Mang, you take good care of the people around you, which is your advantage, but at the same time, it is also your disadvantage. Have you ever thought about it? You will never grow up if you keep others under your wings like this!" Li Ruonan put down the dumplings and said.
"Then you want to discuss it with me, do you have my consent?" Liu Mang's tone stiffened.
Since he met Guan Xiaomeng, Liu Mang has regarded this simple and cute little girl as his sister.
Now Li Ruonan took it upon himself to send her away, obviously committing his taboo.
"I sent her to school, and it was also with Xiaomeng's consent. There happened to be a place in a well-known private school in Shanghai, and yesterday because of the tight time, you were sleeping again, so I didn't wake you up. Seeing that Liu Mang was really angry, Li Ruonan said with a little weakness.
"You'll have to discuss this kind of thing with me in the future, understand? I'll make a phone call later, this girl has such a big belly, and I don't know if she can eat enough at school. ”
"Don't worry, I also like Xiaomeng, a big foodie, and she's also my sister. I said hello to the school early in the morning, and I won't let her go hungry!"
"Well, let's eat. Hearing Li Ruonan say this, Liu Mang's face looked a little better.
"Then I'll eat it!" Li Ruonan pouted, picked up the dumplings on the plate, and put them to his mouth and bit them.
"Click!" as soon as the teeth touched the skin of the dumpling, it shattered in an instant.
When you bite into it, the crumbled skin is extremely crispy, giving the illusion that it is about to melt in the mouth.
When you bite again, you will find the sweet radish juice in your mouth, which is cleverly blended with the crispy crust and makes the taste buds on your tongue tremble slightly.
"It's really delicious!" Li Ruonan couldn't help but exclaim.
"The delicious food is yet to come. Liu Mang put down the spoon, opened the lid of the crockpot and sniffed it.
"What's else delicious?beef broth?" Gome puffed out his eyes and swallowed.
"Yes, but it's not time yet. When I fry all the dumplings first, Lin Xiao will be ready to eat as soon as he comes. ”
After Liu Mang finished speaking, he picked up the spoon and fried the dumplings seriously.
"Wow! It's so fragrant, what are you frying?" After about half an hour, there was a sound outside the kitchen door, and Lin Xiao walked in with a sniff.
"Wow, Xiao Linzi, what have you been doing these days? Why is it like taking drugs?"
Compared with the usual well-dressed, a look of spirit. Today's Lin Xiao, his hair is messy, his beard is not shaved, and his two eye sockets are deep, as if he hasn't rested well for a long time.
"Don't mention it!Private matter!Private matter!" Lin Xiao waved his hand weakly: "Master Liu, hurry up and bring your dishes, I'm going to starve to death!"
"Let's take it first, let's take the mat, the soup will be fine in a while. Liu Mang sent a plate of fried dumplings to Lin Xiao: "What's wrong, how did you do this?"
"It's okay! I met a tigress and hid for a few days!" Lin Xiao picked up the chopsticks and said vaguely.
"Oh......" Everyone held back their laughter, revealing a look of understanding.
can make Lin Xiao deflated, it must only be a woman, and she should still be a woman with an ambiguous relationship.
"Huh, this dumpling tastes good, is it Nanchang radish dumpling?" picked up the dumpling and took a bite, Lin Xiao praised it again and again.
"Yes, chili, pepper, salt and pepper, these condiments are put just right, and at the same time, they do not snatch away the taste of radish, but draw out their own sweetness. The crust is also fried nicely and crispy, which contrasts sharply with the tenderness of the filling and creates a wonderful reaction in the mouth. ”
The god of cooking is the god of cooking, and after just taking a bite, you can distinguish the ingredients in the dumplings from the general method.
"It's delicious!" Lin Xiao finished commenting, and swallowed a dumpling in a few bites.
"Really?" Liu Mang laughed, opened the crockpot and looked at it, then scooped up a little soup and tried it.
"Well, enough heat, just add a little salt and pepper to taste. Liu Mang thought.
"Come! Try this again, there will be a surprise!" After adjusting the taste, Liu Mang scooped a bowl of beef soup and handed it to Lin Xiao.
The broth in the bowl is not particularly clear, with some oil stars and a few chopped green onions floating on it.
Lin Xiao picked up the spoon and scooped it into his mouth: "Well, the heat of the beef soup is enough, and the umami in the meat is completely forced out, except for the green onion and ginger, no other ingredients are used, it is very original." It's just that the oil star in the soup has not been scooped away, and it is slightly greasy. ”
"You eat a bite of dumplings and try another bite of soup. Liu Mang laughed.
"Take a bite of dumplings and take a bite of soup?" Lin Xiao was surprised.
He followed what Liu Mang said, picked up the dumplings and took a bite, and immediately took another bite of the soup.
"...... this!?"
What Lin Xiao didn't expect was that as soon as the deliciousness of the beef soup and the sweetness of the radish in the dumplings were combined, an unimaginable deliciousness erupted in the mouth.
This extreme deliciousness rises and then represses, surging in the mouth like a tide.
These are two completely different dishes, and it seems that after chewing and swallowing, they have changed into a new flavor!
"How did you do that?" Lin Xiao quickly swallowed the dumplings in his mouth and asked hurriedly.
"The taste of soup!" Liu Mang held up a finger: "This is a technique I have recently learned! The human mouth, tongue, taste, smell, and even saliva are all used as a cooking tool! Two different foods become a new taste through the chewing and tasting of the human body!"
"Can you do this?" Lin Xiao stopped his chopsticks and thought about it carefully.
After a while, he slapped his palms excitedly: "I understand, radish and beef are a perfect match, and the 'radish and beef brisket pot' in Cantonese cuisine is the best proof of this! This dumpling and beef soup are paired together, just like soy milk with fritters! The two must be combined with each other and complement each other to do it! It's just that why didn't I think of it before?"
"Congratulations to you, you've learned something new!" Liu Mang laughed. (To be continued.) )
