When he returned home, Zhang Churan began to think about what he should cook, which should be simple, delicious, and finally show his country's unique food culture.

Seriously, it's difficult, so not only did Zhang Churan think about it himself, but Zhang Churan also mobilized all the people in his family.

Around the dining table, the five members of the Zhang family all locked their brows deeply.

"Oops.... The first to speak out was Zhang Guoren, he looked at Zhang Churan and smiled bitterly: "Your program group is interesting, other variety shows are fixed in content, and this program group actually lets you think about the content of the program yourself." ”

"Haha... Zhang Siyi laughed: "This is the charm of this program group, the ratings are very high." ”

"Dad... Don't dwell on this, now you need to help me figure out what I'm supposed to cook. ”

As soon as Zhang Churan finished speaking, Chen Yizhi said: "How about dumplings? This is our traditional Chinese food, and it is delicious, as long as you wrap it first, it will be fast and convenient." “

"Ahh This is good. Zhang Churan nodded and said: "Dumplings are counted as one, but dumplings can't be regarded as staple food, we need staple food,"

"Hmm.... At this time, Zhang Keke, who was sitting in Zhang Churan's arms, said: "Dad... I want to eat ribs. ”

Burst... Zhang Keke's words made everyone laugh.

Zhang Siyi hugged Zhang Keke from Zhang Churan's body to his body and said, "My little baby, now what we are discussing is not what you want to eat, but what we are going to go abroad to eat for foreigners?"

"Haha... "Everyone was smiling a lot.

It's just that after laughing, everyone fell into deep thought... Suddenly, Zhang Guoren said: "How about making claypot rice?"

"Claypot rice?" everyone was stunned.

"yes... Claypot rice, originated from the special cuisine of Guangdong, belongs to the Cantonese cuisine. The main types are cured claypot rice, mushroom and smooth chicken, black bean sauce pork ribs claypot rice, pork liver, roast duck, white cut chicken, etc.

The method is simple, usually put the washed rice into the pot, measure the amount of water, cover, add ingredients to the rice until it is seven ripe, and then switch to a slow cooking.

Lap-mei is only available in China, and the casserole is also a characteristic of our China, there are dishes, rice and staple food, I feel that claypot rice is very good. ”

After Zhang Guoren finished speaking, Zhang Churan slapped his thigh and shouted in surprise: "That's right, it's it, claypot rice." ”

...........................

Claypot rice originated from Guangdong, is to use the casserole as a utensil to cook rice, and Guangdong called the clay pot as the claypot, so it is called claypot rice, claypot rice has a long history, more than 2000 years ago, the "Notes on the Book of Rites" and other books recorded, the first treasure of the eight treasures of the Zhou Dynasty, the second treasure and the claypot rice practice is the same, but the yellow rice is used as the raw material, which can be seen that it was very precious at that time. According to Wei Juyuan's "Recipe", in the Tang Dynasty, it was called "Yuhuang Queen Mother Rice", which was made of braided wisps (shredded meat) and egg fat (eggs) on the surface of the rice bowl, so it was more flavorful.

It's a Chinese dish with a lot of history.

The traditional varieties of claypot rice mainly include black bean sauce pork rib rice, cured rice, slippery chicken rice, yellow eel rice, field chicken rice, salted fish fragrant pork rice, etc., the authentic one should use silk seedling fragrant rice, take its solid and dense crystalline, good taste, strong taste and easy to be soaked in soup. Generally speaking, raw rice and lettuce are boiled in one pot, take the rice with black bean sauce and pork ribs rice as an example, wash the rice in the pot, open the lid when it is cooked for six or seven years, add the raw pork ribs with a good sauce, pour the sauce and sesame oil along the edge of the pot, simmer until the rice is watered, and remove the pot. Add chives after the lid, spread the green rape, if it is a yellow eel or field chicken, the time can be shorter, if it is beef, it will be longer, it should be noted that the meal should be taken into account, this is the heat.

However, if you go abroad this time, the field chicken and yellow eel will still be removed, first, the raw materials cannot be bought, and the second is that foreigners should not dare to eat them.

The most important thing to miss is the pot, which is golden in color, dry and crispy, long in taste, and has an endless aftertaste, which is the favorite of the city's fashion elite. Rice is the staple food of Chinese people, kung fu claypot, Sven slow fire, not arrogant and impatient, fire to success, Fang Zhan kung fu claypot flavor and fragrance. Visitors from all over the world, guests from all sides, and free to eat kung fu claypot rice.

After choosing this claypot rice, Zhang Churan bought a lot of ingredients on the same day to experiment with claypot rice, three pieces of cured meat, beef, pork ribs.... Waiting, and after Zhang Churan made it, the whole family was also very happy to eat, and nodded in unison.

Then Zhang Churan told the program team about what he was going to do with claypot rice, and asked the program to help him prepare tools, and after the program team received Zhang Churan's content to do, they also quickly began to help Zhang Churan prepare tools, to be honest, Luo Tian's team prepared tools very well.

.............................

Three days later... Chunshen International Airport.

Zhang Churan, Zhang Siyi and Di Lieba boarded a plane to Indonesia, Derana Island is one of the three largest islands in Lombok, it is the most popular island for tourists, and it is the largest of the three small islands in Lombok, and it also has the best diving area, especially Manta Point.

The water here is so calm that you wonder if you have come to the lake, and the water is blue and transparent, with a seductive hue, and hides strange and beautiful underwater creatures. Shark Point, located to the east, is perfect for morning diving and diving. There are different diving heights: 24 meters, 20 meters, 18 meters. However, the water is relatively deep and the current is relatively fast, which is only suitable for high-level divers and divers.

It used to be a prison and many prisoners were held here. It was only developed in 1990. It is currently home to about 800 people, and in order to protect the environment, there are only horse-drawn carriages and bicycles, and you can fully feel the laid-back atmosphere of life here if you ride around the island. The water is so pure that if you want to float shallowly, you just need to be near the beach, where all the marine life is right in front of you. The best part is that there is no charge for floating here, as long as you rent a lifebuoy and frog glasses, you can play for as long as you want.

The best part is that there is no charge for floating here, as long as you rent a lifebuoy and frog glasses, you can play for as long as you want.

If you don't want to get high or party, just eat! There are many great seafood restaurants here, at the seafood stall in front of the restaurant, order your favorite seafood, the chef will cook it immediately, drink beer and feast! Watching movies is also a popular activity here, some movie theaters are on the beach by the sea, set up a screen, order a drink and you can find a place, lie down or sit and watch a movie as you like.

"Dude... When it's not open, you can take us to snorkeling. Looking at the information about Derana Island in his hand, Zhang Siyi looked at Zhang Churan expectantly.

"Yes... However, it is not allowed to wear a bikini, or it will not take you out. ”

After Zhang Churan finished speaking, Zhang Siyi laughed!

.................................

If you want to reach Dranaan Island, you have to take a boat, while waiting for the boat, Zhang Siyi took a fancy to a shawl, Zhang Churan immediately repaid the price with the other party, but the one who sold the shawl didn't let the price at all, because he probably knew that it was a tourist, so he basically didn't let the price.

Just when Zhang Churan still wanted to fight for it, Zhang Siyi actually paid the money.

This made Zhang Churan speechless, so what was the bargaining he had just now...? Zhang Churan took Zhang Siyi and Di Lieba on the boat.

After about an hour, Zhang Churan and the three finally arrived at Derana Island, as soon as you arrive at the port, you can see a lot of foreigners, but there are not as many locals as foreigners, that is because this is basically a tourist here, and this is a smoke-free island.

After waiting on the island, Zhang Churan asked to see the restaurant as soon as possible, there are no cars on this island, and there is no smoking island, so the three of them got into the carriage.

Their restaurant is in the northernmost part of the island, and along the way, Zhang Churan and the three of them saw a lot of people practicing snorkeling here, and Zhang Siyi laughed and said that this was an aquarium.

"Oh my God... It's too remote, who's going to come. ”

Because it is in the northernmost part, the location is a little remote, and Zhang Siyi is very unhappy.

After speaking, Di Lieba also frowned and said, "It's really too far, it's all to the border." ”

However, when he arrived at the restaurant, Zhang Churan thought it was not bad, the restaurant was very large, there were four tables in the hall, an open kitchen, and a special bar for drinks, the roof was yellow, the tone was milky white, and there were a few beach chairs outside the restaurant, seriously, the restaurant was great, and what was even better was the view outside the restaurant.

With an unobstructed view of the clear water and blue sky, Zhang Siyi and Di Lieba wanted to jump into the sea immediately.

Following behind Zhang Churan, Di Lieba looked at the kitchen happily and said, "Brother Churan, this place is so beautiful?"

Zhang Churan also nodded and said: "I didn't expect it to be so beautiful, to be honest, they (the production team) are very capable, and this restaurant is very tasteful, so it is a little biased, but I believe that we will definitely have customers." ”

"Hey... What about Sisi?" Suddenly, Di Lieba turned around and didn't find Zhang Siyi: "Sisi, this guy is too unreliable." For Zhang Siyi, Di Lieba gave a shake of his head in evaluation.

In fact, at this time, Zhang Siyi had already gone to the beach outside to play, it was really beautiful here, which made people a little unable to extricate themselves, and when Zhang Churan and Di Li Reba walked out of the restaurant, Zhang Siyi stood on the beach and shouted at Zhang Churan and Di Li Reba.

"Dude... Sister Reba came over to play. ”

For Zhang Siyi's happy appearance, Zhang Churan and Di Li Reba laughed, and at this time, Di Li Reba shouted: "Stop playing, it's time to eat." ”

As soon as he heard about eating, Zhang Siyi ran back happily.

And what is eating, that is to spy on the price and taste of the dishes in the restaurant next door, although the dishes made by the two sides are different, but this nerve still has to collapse, Zhang Churan took the two girls, and almost ordered the characteristics of this store, and after eating, the evaluation given by the three of them was not very good.

However, although the dishes were given a bad review, there was another problem, that is, almost all the dishes here are Western restaurants, what pasta, sandwiches... And Zhang Churan and others' dishes are claypot rice with Chinese characteristics, which is a bit difficult, I don't know if foreigners here can accept it.

After exploring the enemy camp, Zhang Churan waited until he got into the carriage again, this time they were going to the place where they were going to stay for ten days, this was a small villa, as soon as they walked into the gate, there was a courtyard inside, with sofas, tables and chairs, followed by a hall, and an open kitchen, a total of four rooms, and the best thing in the courtyard was that there was a swimming pool.

Zhang Siyi and Di Lireba, who saw the house, immediately screamed, because they liked it here, and they liked it very much, to be honest, seeing that the two little guys liked it, Zhang Churan was also very happy, but just after Zhang Churan moved his luggage into the yard and just closed the yard door, the two little guys had actually jumped off the swimming pool with a 'plop' and 'plop'.

This made Zhang Churan speechless and said: "Ah... You two didn't pack your luggage, why did you go into the water. ”

And soon Zhang Churan heard the two little girls shouting, "You clean up." ”

"Poof.... "Zhang Churan is no longer able to complain, it's not good to follow his sister out to do the show, and he completely treats himself as a servant.

It took more than ten minutes for Zhang Churan to move the two little guys and his luggage into their respective rooms, and when Zhang Churan took a breath, he sat on the recliner outside the living room, looking at playing with the two little guys, and suddenly, Zhang Churan felt very good.

............................

At the end of playing in the water, a little after 14 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Churan shouted the two little guys out of the water, because now is not the time to play, and he wants to buy the ingredients for tomorrow's store opening.

Vegetables, meat, flour and much more .... There's still a lot to be busy.

There is only one supermarket on the island, which is about the size of a small store, but it has a relatively complete range of things, vegetables, meat, rice and noodles.

It is not far from Zhang Churan's home, and he took Zhang Siyi and Di Li Reba to buy vegetables together, and then came to the restaurant together, and then Zhang Churan used the tools of the restaurant kitchen to make three servings of claypot rice.

One is beef nest egg claypot rice, one is pork ribs claypot rice and one is sausage claypot rice, pork ribs and beef are bought, sausages are brought, because sausages can't be bought here, so sausages are brought.

Three servings of claypot rice, Di Li Reba put the washed rice into the pot, measured the amount of water, covered, and then handed it to Zhang Churan, and Zhang Churan was responsible for the heat, probably until the rice was burned to seven ripe, Zhang Churan put the ingredients in, and then switched to slow cooking.

Cooking fire: It should be clay, with good heat retention, uniform heating, which can preserve food nutrients and is particularly fragrant. These casseroles are also brought from Huaguo, and the instinct is also a pot, but the gap is too big, the local casserole is loaded with vegetables, and it will be broken immediately when it is roasted on the fire, only the casserole dishes of Huaguo are powerful and can withstand the fire.

The rice here is good, and the silk miao rice has a fight, the oil is moist and crystalline, the rice body is slender, the flexibility is moderate, and the rice flavor is rich. The selection of rice for cooking claypot rice is the key link, and it is best to choose the slimming rice of late rice, because the slimming rice has good water absorption, it can also absorb the aroma of fillings and oil, so that the cooked claypot rice exudes a unique rice aroma.

To make claypot rice, it is best to use a shallow flat-mouth casserole. Today's casseroles are not as rough as the early ones, but it is necessary to take some time to maintain them. Soaking a casserole in rice washing water is a very traditional method. Of course, you can also take care of it by oiling it.

Before using the newly bought casserole for the first time, apply a layer of oil to the inner wall of the washed and dried casserole to allow the pores to absorb completely, and then heat it with a very small fire to allow the oil to be completely absorbed into it, and cool it naturally after turning off the fire.

Generally speaking, the claypot rice will be served with some green vegetables, broccoli, kale, baby greens, etc. These dishes need to be blanched in advance, put some oil and salt in the blanching water, in addition to adding flavor to the vegetables, it will also make the color brighter, of course, don't forget to cool with cold water, otherwise the green vegetables will turn yellow.

For those who like to eat the pot at the bottom of the claypot rice, you can pour some oil along the edge of the pot and cook it over low heat after putting in the sausage and bacon, so that when it is ready, a layer of crispy and fragrant pot will be formed at the bottom.

If you are using bacon and sausages that already taste salty, do not add salt to the sauce and reduce the soy sauce by 2 teaspoons.

In addition, eating claypot rice, the most can not let go is the pot, the grains are clearly visible silk miao rice is burned out of a layer of golden yellow pot by the smooth bottom of the pot, dry and crispy, use a spoon to move the pot at the mouth of the pot, along the pot spoon deep to the bottom of the pot, you can easily peel off the pot at the bottom of the pot, chew slowly in the mouth, leave a fragrance between the teeth, and the aftertaste is endless. Different from ordinary pots, the crockpot is not only crispy and has a long flavor, but also concentrates the essence of the whole pot.

Three servings of claypot rice soon ended in Zhang Churan's hands, Zhang Siyi was the first monkey to uncover the tile cover, and after uncovering, full of rich and salty flavor of soup, fat but not greasy, warm and delicious claypot rice appeared, after eating, warm, refreshed, Zhang Siyi nodded again and again: "Brother... We've got it!"
