Chapter 354: Matcha Mochi
Making tea is also an extremely elaborate art, and if you want to make a good pot of tea, you need to achieve the words "lively, sweet, and light". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info where live refers to living water, and sweet means that the taste of water should be sweet; Clean means that the water quality should be clean; Light means that the water quality is soft.
As the saying goes, water is the mother of tea, and tea must originate from water. If you want to make tea, the mountains and rivers are up, the river water is in the middle, and the well water is the bottom.
After boiling a large pot of mountain spring water, Sariel poured the freshly roasted tea leaves into the water.
Since it is mainly for the preparation of the next dish, the brewing process is not as elaborate as that of a normal tea drink.
Brewing five tea leaves with nearly 40 liters of water looks a little shabby, but the rich aroma of tea shows the difference of Ice Lamp Gyokuro.
Smelling the rich aroma in the air, the food cells in Lin Su's body became restless again. Lin Su wanted to immediately take out some tea from the pot and taste it, but his intuition told him that the deliciousness of the Ice Lantern Yulu Tea had not been fully released at this time.
When the spring water in the pot was dyed with a faint turquoise color by the tea leaves, Sally El poured a small cup of tea for each of Lin Su and the others.
The tea is crystal clear, free of any impurities, and its pale green color gives a pleasing sensation to the eye, as if it were flowing amber.
Lin Su put the cup close to the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, and then took a sip of tea, the tea soup swirled in his mouth, and he suddenly felt fragrant in his mouth and nose. The sweetness of the mountain spring water and the fragrance of the ice lamp jade dew itself are integrated, and it is natural.
The tea soup flowed down the esophagus into the stomach, and a warm current suddenly swam through the body.
Lin Su's food cells themselves can create cold and freeze everything, but after drinking this tea, there is a warm feeling of ice melting and everything recovering, and the whole person is full of vitality.
"I didn't expect this tea to bring such a wonderful experience, and the refreshing tea soup contains the ultimate deliciousness." Feeling the astonishing changes brought about by the evolution of his own food cells, Lin Su made a decision in his heart, "I want to add this Ice Lantern Gyokuro Tea to my full menu." ”
Following the soup and fish dishes, the drinks in Lin Su's full menu were also decided.
"Decided to add to the full menu so quickly? It seems that this Ice Lantern Gyokuro is indeed a good match for your food cells. Dreiser said. He was happy that Lin Su had identified an ingredient in a complete menu.
"The taste of this tea is indeed rare in the world, and it is not inferior to the ingredients in the food industry. No, even in the world of food, I have never come across such a delicious drink. Thinking of the special environment in which Ice Lamp Gyokuro grows, Lin Su thinks that it is likely to be an ingredient specially cultivated by Nitro.
I don't know if the three delicious immortals of the Nitro clan that Yilong met have left, maybe I can ask them about the origin of this ice lantern jade dew.
Lin Su added the Ice Lantern Jade Dew to his full menu, and the happiest one was Sally El. This is the first full set of menu ingredients confirmed after she and Lin Su have partnered, and it is of special commemorative significance.
"I'm going to make this tea dish out of the way and see if it's eligible to be added to my full menu." Sariel immediately quickened the movement of her hand.
Pour the cooled tea into the ground golden wheat flour, and a small bowl of golden wheat flour will absorb all 40 liters of tea. When the surface of the dough became moist, Sariel began to massage the flour.
After kneading it for less than a minute, the dough had already expanded several times and made a sound like that of an old man.
Wheat flour is able to express its emotions with its voice, which is a special feature of the full-fledged production process.
Twenty minutes later, the original small bowl of dough had swelled a hundredfold and had a crystalline texture similar to that of the leaves of Bing Lantern Gyokuro tea. The all-round special feature is that it can produce different properties depending on the kneading technique.
This time, Sally El wanted to make something similar to mochi, so after kneading the dough, the overall stickiness and elasticity were deliberately strengthened, so that it had the same texture as the top glutinous rice flour.
After the kneaded is fully steamed, wrapped in the pre-prepared matcha filling, and then coated with a layer of desiccated coconut, a matcha mochi is basically made.
The dish is finished by taking out the freshly brewed five slices of ice lamp gyokuro tea leaves, cutting them into tiny pieces and sprinkling them on the surface of the matcha mochi.
If there is enough Ice Lamp Gyokuro Tea, Sally El will definitely make the matcha filling inside with Ice Lamp Gyokuro Tea, but considering the scarcity of Ice Lamp Gyokuro Tea, it is too luxurious to use it to make the filling.
In addition, the taste of Gyokuro tea is fresh and long, and it is very infectious, so it would be a bit too much to use it to make dishes.
"Let's try it all, this is the Ice Lantern Gyokuro Matcha Mochi I made." Sally El brought out ten mochi.
"I'll try it." Lin Su was the first to pick up the mochi and eat it. "The skin is dense and soft, and the filling is sweet and smooth. When you bite into it, the tea is fragrant, and the essence of Bing Lamp Gyokuro tea is completely condensed in a small mochi.
Although it is a completely different feeling from normal tea drinking, it is undoubtedly a successful dish. ”
"The warm feeling of Ice Lantern Gyokuro Tea is perfectly combined with the golden wheat, and it looks like a gentle little sun in your hand. Eating it in one bite makes people feel like lying on the grass carefree and soaking in the sun, which is very comfortable. Hodge said after eating one.
"Tea can help digestion and relieve oiliness, and those judges in the finals must be in a bad state after eating the works of many chefs, and they will definitely be in a good state when they taste your works." Niss said.
Sally Elle herself picked up a mochi and tasted it, it was soft and glutinous, and the dough and filling blended together on the tip of the tongue, which was indeed an addictive delicacy.
"I decided, I wanted to make this dish a dessert on the full menu." Sally El proudly announced.
After practicing how to make Ice Lantern Gyokuro matcha mochi from start to finish, Sally Elle already knew what steps to prepare for in advance, and when it came time for the finals, she had plenty of time to compete.
Seeing that Sally El had finished the dishes to be made in the finals, Hodge also became anxious. "Lin Su, tomorrow we will go to the Jiuhao Islands to capture the Bacchulong."
"No problem, but are you going with me too?" Lin Su asked.
Hodge nodded: "The Bacchus Dragon is a beast that lives on the Liquor Islands, and I want to see if I can find ingredients that match the Bacchus Dragons on the Liquor Islands." ”
