Chapter Seventy-One: Exploding Ice Skater
Soon it was time to eat, and Xiang Lan was going out to work.
"Mom, don't be busy, Gerald has been around the world all year round, what kind of food has not been seen, with the level of our village, do you think there can be food that amazes him, if you really want to, it is better to put some effort into this aspect of Qi, and see what he has not eaten." ”
Xiang Lan thought about it right, so he said, "Okay, okay, you can get two pheasants, and the nest of hazelnut chickens you raised will also be slaughtered, I will stew a big goose, and then get a fried ice skate, to ensure that he has not eaten it." ”
"Fried ice skate, okay, Mom, you still hide this hand, I'm hungry when I talk about it. ”
Speaking of Northeast cuisine, most of the things that come to mind are sauerkraut and white meat, pork stewed vermicelli, pot wrapped meat, etc., but there are many interesting stories in HLJ's ice and snow culture, among them, "fried ice skate" is the most widespread.
He can't remember the specific story anymore, but he can still vaguely remember it.
It is said that a long time ago there was a restaurant with four banners, and it is very said that restaurants in the Northeast hung several banners, usually one to four banners.
Hang one under the guise of Luoquan small pretend, which means that you can only cook the daily meals of the people; hang two under the guise of being able to cook all kinds of wonderful dishes in the locality; hang three under the guise of being able to cook the dishes of the north and south, as for hanging four pretenses, it is very good, and the guests can do whatever they order.
Of course, others are not convinced, and people come to order food every day to see if it lives up to its name.
The shopkeeper is also a cow, and no one has ever stumped him, until one day, a young man came to say, "Give me a 'oil--fry-ice--slip----!'"
Now the shopkeeper is dumbfounded, fried ice skates or something, he has never even heard of it for decades, let alone done it.
Seeing that the signboard was about to be smashed, it was the old shopkeeper who personally stepped out and got the deal done.
It turns out that in the north in winter, it is cold and snowy, and under the eaves of the hotel, rows of ice skates are hung there of different lengths, which is the common "ice skate" in the north.
As for fried ice skates, the ice skates are broken off and put in the back kitchen for seasoning, wrapping noodles, and fried in a hot oil pan.
It looks simple but it is actually very difficult, it can form an ice skate, at least in a low temperature environment of a few degrees below zero, put it in a hot oil pan and fry, if you don't master the heat well, the ice skate melts into a puddle of water, and what to eat, you must have a very high level of craftsmanship.
The young man looked at the fried ice skate in front of him, sighed, and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm served, I haven't actually eaten this dish, but I heard an old beggar say that there is such a dish, so I wanted to try it, but I didn't expect you to really know." ”
Since then, the restaurant has become famous in the Kanto region, and the dish of "deep-fried ice skate" has been passed down among the people of Tohoku.
Of course, there are no ice skates in summer, but fried ice skates have also changed a lot with the development of science and technology, and they began to use ice skates specially frozen in the refrigerator, which are similar to popsicle sticks and popsicles, but they are all ice, and nothing else is added, so it is not interesting to taste them alone.
Qin Yan went to help in person, and Irina and several women heard about the legend of the ice skate and came to watch it curiously.
Qin Yan buried the frozen ice skates in the refrigerator one by one in the flour, evenly wrapped the flour, and froze them again.
Xiang Lan, on the other hand, mixes flour, starch and baking powder in different proportions, batters, and stirs constantly until the surface is golden brown.
After the batter is prepared, take out the ice skate that is frozen again, and the flour at this time has been frozen on the surface of the ice skate, forming a layer of flour coating, and then put the ice skate into the adjusted batter to make the batter completely wrap the ice skate to form the second layer of batter coating.
With the batter coating taking shape quickly, the preparation is complete, and Xiang Lan begins to fry.
Firepower is very important, Taiwang ice skate is easy to melt, too small, the outer coating is not crispy, when the ice skate floats up from the oil pan, the coating is golden yellow, quickly take out the ice skate, put it on a plate, and it is completed.
After frying, the coated skin is charred and crispy, and the taste is refreshing, and the fried ice skate with a crispy skin is made.
As soon as the first ice skate came out of the pot, Natasha picked up the stick and sighed, "This is a fried ice skate, it looks good, but I don't know how it tastes?"
However, before she could taste it, Irina had already grabbed her hand, lowered her head and took a bite, and directly bit down halfway, revealing the ice skate that had not yet melted inside.
"Hey, you still have to be shameless, how can you rob me of something to eat?"
Irina didn't care about that, and tasted the taste of fried ice skates with satisfaction, the taste was refreshing, the skin was crispy, and the ice skates were cold and delicious, which was really a rare delicacy in summer.
Natalie had no choice but to bite the rest with a calm face. Instantly, my eyes lit up, and I felt the charm of fried ice skates.
Seeing the two beauties making noise beside him, Qin Yan couldn't help but have a ripple in his heart, and joked beside him, "Don't make trouble, there is still here, you can't see it." ”
The two turned their heads to look, and indeed, Xiang Lan blew up two more and hurried over to get them. Irina was greedy and wanted to take both of them, so she reached for them, and Natalie quickly pushed her aside. "Don't argue, leave me one. ”
Having said that, Natalie was just as greedy, grabbed both of them directly, and ran aside with a smile.
Soon, the dishes were ready, and a group of people ran over to taste them.
The main dish on the table is an iron pot with a full pot and placed in the middle.
Among the poultry eaten by modern people, there may be only one kind of goose left that is not fed artificial compound feed.
The goose is a vegetarian animal, the shredded meat is tender, the nutritional value is high, and the crude protein is easily absorbed. The fat content is less than half that of lean pork, and it contains a lot of unsaturated fatty acids that are beneficial to the human body.
Now there is a popular saying: "To be healthy, drink goose soup, to live a long life, eat goose meat".
Qin Yan brought the pot to the table and introduced, "The iron pot relies on the goose to integrate natural, green, nutritious and healthy, with pollution-free own goose as raw materials, accompanied by dozens of precious Chinese herbs and high-grade seasonings to form a unique formula, using the traditional cast iron pot carefully made for 4 hours, the taste is pure, the meat is rotten and boneless, the texture is delicate, fragrant but not greasy." It's a great delicacy. ”
"Just blow it!" Irina scolded.
Having said that, she still picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, and her brows suddenly furrowed.
Natalie, who was about to taste it, became nervous and asked, "How does it taste?" ”
"You taste too bad. ”
"Forget it, I'd better not taste it. ”
After hesitating for a moment, I saw that Irina was happy to eat with chopsticks and chopsticks, and I also tasted with chopsticks, and my eyes suddenly lit up, it was so delicious, Xiao Nizi, you pit me.
A group of people ate with a mouthful of oil, a whole goose was also eaten, and even a little soup in it was eaten by a few of them, and the whole basin was almost like a dog licking.
Irina touched her round belly and said, "No, no, the food you made is so delicious, if you continue to eat like this, I have to be fat." ”
"That's a good feeling, I'll do it for you next time. ”
"Alright, Irina, you're embarrassed to say that I've only got a few pieces in total, and I'll let you eat the rest, and my stomach is still not full. ”
"Then you can only complain about the second uncle, who made him reluctant to kill, only killed such a little goose. ”
Qin Yan is helpless, how can this involve me, besides, I killed a big fat goose in the family, who knows that you can eat it so much, starving ghosts are reincarnated.
"You're right, Xiao Yan is like this, very stingy, next time you come, I'll kill a lion's head goose for you, and I'll make sure you are full. Sun Kai smiled beside him, he didn't care who was right and who was wrong, the beauty said the biggest.
The lion's head goose is one of the largest meat goose species at home and abroad, and one of the largest geese in the world. When adults reach more than 20 catties, they will never be able to eat.
"Thank you, second brother. Irina smiled.
Qin Yan was depressed, why is he the "second brother", and when he waits on his side, he will become the "second uncle", and he is older than him, which is not fair.
