In addition, what kind of ordinary cookware did Uncle Chen Qian use back then?

The problem must be with the cookware.

After Bai Xiaobai targeted the cooking utensils, he asked Chen Qian what kind of soup cookers were often used in Motuo's local area.

Chen Qian said that few Tibetans in the area make soup to drink, and if they are Han Chinese, they usually use pressure cookers to make soup at home.

Bai Xiaobai asked, "Mr. Chen, is there any special cooking utensils in this area?"

Chen Qian thought about it again and again, and finally thought of it, and said, "We have a natural soapstone stone pot called Motuo stone pot in our local Motuo. This stone pot is a local cooking utenary that is usually used to cook some fish, shrimp and wild vegetables, but is rarely used to make soup. ”

Bai Xiaobai said, "Then do you have this kind of stone pot at home?"

Chen Qian said, "There is one, it is very old, and it is all old objects left over from the previous generation." ”

Bai Xiaobai said, "I need to use this stone pot to cook cordyceps duck soup." ”

Chen Qian said, "No problem, I'll let someone pack it up and hurry up for you." ”

While Chen Qian asked people to clean up the stone pot, Bai Xiaobai used his mobile phone Baidu to check the Baidu provisions related to the Motuo stone pot.

The most commonly used cooking utensils used by people in the Nyingchi area is a pot made of soapstone, or "stone pot" for short.

In particular, the raw material of the ink stone pot in the Nyingchi area is a rare natural soapstone in the world, this kind of stone is soft, and the stone pot is gray-brown and gray-brown as the main color.

This kind of soapstone pot is mainly made by the craftsmen of Lhoba and Menba in the Grand Canyon.

The locals not only use stone pots for cooking, but also pancakes, etc., and the stone pot has become a kind of cooking utensils that they cannot do without when cooking delicious dishes.

Although this stone pot is slow to transfer heat, it is also slow to dissipate heat, and the food cooked with it has a unique aroma.

After Chen Qian asked people to clean up the Motuoshi cauldron, Bai Xiaobai went downstairs to take a look.

This stone pot is barrel-shaped, about 2-3 cm thick, with thin walls and thick bottoms, narrow at the top and thick at the bottom. There are two pot ears chiseled out of one at both ends of the pot mouth, and the shape is a bit simple and simple.

"Boss Bai, do you really want to use this pot to make soup, this pot is too slow to heat up, and the food is not easy to cook. Chen Qian said.

Bai Xiaobai said, "I'll just use this pot, try it first, maybe you can succeed." ”

In fact, Bai Xiaobai has no bottom in his heart.

He also can't guarantee that this Motoshi pot will be able to succeed in the cuisine of more than 60 years ago.

But no matter what, you can try, even if it is a failure, it is a rare experience.

Chen Qian said: "Have you also chosen the ingredients, Boss Bai? It's just that there is no fresh Cordyceps in season now." ”

Bai Xiaobai said, "You can just use dried cordyceps, I'll try it first." For duck meat, we also use ordinary highland ecological duck. ”

Fresh cordyceps sinensis is generally harvested in May and June, after the snow mountains melt and the meadow area is exposed, and it is indeed not in season in February.

Bai Xiaobai put the detailed list of ingredients on paper and asked Chen Qian to take care of it.

"Mr. Chen, you should prepare all the ingredients according to the amount of two portions first. ”

"The amount of two?" Chen Qian felt a little incredible, why did he do this.

However, he didn't ask too much, Bai Xiaobai would do this, and there would definitely be a reason for him.

After instructing the detailed ingredients, Bai Xiaobai did not cook immediately that night.

The next morning.

Chen Qian had already asked people to prepare all the ingredients and put them in the kitchen.

After Bai Xiaobai counted it, it was all complete.

All the ingredients were the two servings he requested.

He began to show his skills.

King Lingkuang Lang——

Chen Qian, his wife, and Gao Chao watched Bai Xiaobai cook in the kitchen.

Remove the whole duck meat from the internal organs and clean it up.

After washing the dried cordyceps, red dates, and wolfberries, carefully stuff them into the belly of the duck, and hold the duck chest with a clean toothpick to seal it.

The water is made from local snow-capped mountain mineral water.

The amount of the two servings, Bai Xiaobai is made together, and the seasoning is the same, but the choice of cooking utensils is different.

One of them uses a regular pressure cooker.

The other is a mortarite pot used.

Pour into a stone pot and just submerge the duck meat.

Add two slices of ginger and start to boil.

In order to increase the airtightness, Bai Xiaobai deliberately added a large stone to the lid of the Motoshi pot.

Turn on the heat and let the Motoshi pot heat evenly.

The cooking is completely done, and now it's just a matter of waiting.

In fact, Bai Xiaobai's cooking this time is just to do an experiment first to see what is the difference between the pressure cooker and the Motoshi pot.

The pressure cooker cooks quickly because it heats up quickly.

Bai Xiaobai unveiled the pressure cooker, and a strange fragrance came to his nose.

For so many years, many chefs have been making cordyceps duck soup, and Chen Qian has also drunk countless varieties.

No matter how different ingredients are paired, nothing is as fragrant as this one.

It is worthy of being from the hands of celebrity chef Bai Xiaobai.

Chen Qian and his wife sighed together.

Scooping out a spoonful of cordyceps duck soup from the pot, Bai Xiaobai handed it to Chen Qian and said, "Mr. Chen, give your mother a taste first." ”

Chen Qian took the bowl and did so.

Gao Chao asked about this fragrance, but he couldn't control it, so he held a bowl by himself, scooped a bowl and drank it secretly.

Bai Xiaobai saw the superb obsceneness, and half-jokingly said, "Drink a bowl and give a hundred." ”

Gao Chao said, "No problem, I'll > in a while, "Really?" Bai Xiaobai said excitedly.

"Fake. Gao Chao grinned, and he instantly felt that Bai Xiaobai was a little silly and cute.

Bai Xiaobai "......"

Chen Qian came down with an empty bowl, and he said, "My mother said that this bowl of soup was delicious, but it was still a little different from what she drank back then. ”

"Well, I see. "Bai Xiaobai said" This is cooked in an ordinary pressure cooker, and there is also a Modeshi pot to cook. That's what I've prepared for today. ”

The reason why we want to make a comparison is that Bai Xiaobai wants to know how different the taste of the same ingredients is under the cuisine of different cooking utensils.

By the time the cordyceps duck soup in the Motuoshi pot was boiled, it was already half past twelve at noon.

Bai Xiaobai saw that the time was about the same, so he took off the pressing stone and uncovered the lid of the stone pot.

A pungent aroma instantly fills the entire kitchen.

No exaggeration.

Chen Qian and his wife were stunned for an instant, they can be regarded as knowledgeable, what delicacies from the mountains and seas, what kind of food and fragrance have not been seen.

But only now, this fragrance is simply soul-stirring, and it is too difficult to control.

Bai Xiaobai was also very surprised, he didn't know if it was because of the blessing of the cooking utensils like the Motuoshi pot, or if his cooking skills had made great progress.

The effect of the cordyceps duck soup cooked in this stone pot is too different from that of the pressure cooker.

The stewed cordyceps duck soup is clear and clear, not greasy, and it makes people salivate just by looking at it.
