034 Mapo Tofu
Abbe walked down with Kikuchi Yuanguo, and when he went downstairs, he said to the girl next to him who was in good shape and looked very pure: "Yuanguo, can I call you that?" ”
"Absolutely!" Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo said happily, suddenly feeling a little flattered at this time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Abbe inadvertently looked at the other party's Oupai for a while, and then sighed in his heart, Oupai is so big, it will be inconvenient to feed in the future, it's really pitiful.
Although he thought so in his heart, Abbe still said on the surface: "Yuanguo, wait for me to cook dinner, you also let me see your cooking skills, I want to know the level of your school's top ten masters." ”
"Okay!" Allowing people who are better than themselves to eat their own food is itself a kind of improvement in their cooking skills, and a chef of the level of Chef Abbe, although he is not a master of Western food, is also easy to give himself some advice, so Kikuchi Engo is very glad to meet Abbe this time.
After Abbe entered the kitchen with Kikuchi Yuanguo, he said to the chef on the side: "Everyone has worked hard, I will prepare today's lunch, what do you want to eat?" ”
The main purpose of Zhonghua Building is not to make money, so Abbe has long planned according to the schedule specified by Tian Zhongqiu, only two business hours a day, lunch and dinner, from eleven noon to two o'clock in the afternoon, and from five to eight o'clock in the afternoon, and the rest of the time will no longer take orders, if there are no guests drinking and delaying the time, you can get off work at about half past nine.
Even so, the daily meal point is still very busy, but fortunately, Abbe is rarely here, just as the mascot of the restaurant and the chef of the town.
Hearing that Abbe was going to cook, everyone cheered, and after a while, everyone unified the menu.
Mapo tofu, soup, stir-fry, steamed buns.
"Chef Abbe, we don't know what you can cook, so just make these few forms of cooking." The female manager passed on everyone's opinions to Abbey, and everyone didn't know what to eat, so they only prescribed the type, and let Abbe play the rest.
Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo on the side was a little puzzled, and at this time he also said, "Master Abbey, I want to eat your best food." ”
As a chef, Kikuchi Enguo is also self-motivated, or ambitious, to know what Abbe's best cuisine is.
Not only Kikuchi Enguo, but the rest of the chefs were also waiting quietly at this time, and everyone wanted to taste Abbe's best cuisine.
"Well......" Abbe smiled a little embarrassed, and then said embarrassedly, "Your current cooking skills have not reached that point, although I have not eaten your food, but I feel that is the case." If you eat the best food I've ever made, it will be a big obstacle to your future advancement. ”
Erina Nagikiri has always wanted to see Abbey's true strength, when eating Abbey's dishes in the past, Tanakata always said on the side to let Abbey mix some water into the meal, which is also the reason why Erina Nagikiri often fought with Tanakata Chukai when she was a child, and after hearing Abbey's explanation, Erina Nagi disagreed, and said: "Master Abbey, I think I can do it!" Ever since I was a child, I've been tasting top-notch cuisine, and these dishes have become my motivation to move forward, allowing me to better master my cooking skills, and I think the same is true of Chef Abbe's cooking, which will allow me to master better cooking skills! ”
The rest of the people also thought the same way, and Alice also said, "Master, you can let us see your strength!" As she spoke, Alice also grabbed Abbe's arm with both hands and began to be coquettish.
Abbe was helpless, pulled down the long hair in front of him, looked at the expectant eyes of these people, and could only say: "Which of you goes up to find the owner, if the owner agrees, I will agree." ”
When he was in trouble, Master Abbe began to shake the pot.
"Good! I'll go! Alice smiled and agreed when she saw Abbey's mouth, and then made a reassuring gesture with everyone and went upstairs.
Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo also wanted to see Abbe's craftsmanship, and at this time he also said: "I know where your boss is, I'll take you there!" ”
"Okay!"
Looking at Kikuchi Yuanguo, who went up with Alice, Abbe also said to the rest of the people: "Everyone cook seriously, don't affect your work, the reputation of Zhonghua Building can't be affected." ”
"Yes!" Everyone cheered in unison, and then happily handled the food in their hands.
Tian Zhongqiu was dealing with the matter in hand, and wanted to clearly list the accounts and income and expenditure problems of Zhonghua Building in the past few years, when he was typing on the computer, he heard a rush of footsteps, and the owner of the voice was Alice.
"Ah Qiu!"
Listening to the shouts outside, Tian Zhongqiu clicked on the information on the screen to save it, and then stood up and walked out.
"What's wrong? Bullied? Tian Zhongqiu just said casually, no one would bully her in this place, and besides, Abbe was also below.
Alice said dissatisfiedly: "I won't be bullied!" Chewie! I want to eat Master Abbe's best craft, and you're about to agree! ”
Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo also said very sincerely at this time: "Tian Jun, please!" ”
Tian Zhongqiu realized the problem after hearing the two of them say this, and knew that it was Abbe who threw the pot to himself, but he didn't care, and said directly: "Abbe also told you, her cuisine is not suitable for you now." ”
"It's okay! I've eaten so many delicious foods! Alice didn't believe what Tanaka and Abbe said, thinking it was alarmist.
Tian Zhongqiu glanced at Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo, obviously the other party also thought the same, but it was not easy to say it directly because the relationship was not deep.
In fact, it is indeed a bit alarmist, the little master has eaten so many of Abbey's dishes, and he has not been affected, and Abbey's dishes have also been eaten by many people, and there is no problem.
The last time Tian Zhongqiu ate was also the porridge made by Abbe with all his strength, but it was done by two people, and there was nothing to do.
Many things proved to be fine, but both Tanakata and Abbe thought that their cooking skills had not reached a certain level, so it was better not to try Abbe's cuisine.
No, it's just that I feel this way.
Tian Zhongqiu is a special case, Abbe will not harm him, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and others may not.
"In this way, you tell Abbe to come little by little, make the usual dishes first, and then gradually improve, and if you think you can continue, let Abbe continue to make better food." Tian Zhongqiu said to Alice, and after thinking about it for a while, he was still not at ease, so he said to Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo, who was already smiling: "Mu Jiuzhi, then you tell Abbe, I'll go to dinner later." ”
"Hmmm! Good! Although Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo didn't understand why the other party said this, it wasn't a troublesome thing, so he agreed, "Then I'll go down." ”
"Hmm." Tian Zhongqiu looked at Alice, who had already run away, and didn't know what to say.
After Alice came down, she told Abbe what Tian Zhongqiu said, and did not directly deceive Abbe as Tian Zhongqiu thought, saying that Tian Zhongqiu promised to open up directly.
After hearing Tian Zhongqiu's instructions, Abbe said to the others: "Then I will prepare the ingredients first, and then I will start cooking when everyone is resting, and I will also teach this dish to everyone, and everyone present can learn it." ”
Once in a rare time, Abbe also taught a dish to everyone while cooking.
"Great!"
"Master Abbey, you will come over often in the future!"
"I'm so happy! It's time to learn new dishes again! ”
After preparing the ingredients, Abbe sat on the side and began to wait, while Shinto Scarlet also poured a glass of water for Abbe after finishing his own business, "Master Abbe, please drink tea." ”
Because of the relationship between women present, Abbe also took the lead in using Japanese, but he didn't let Alice and the others be left out in the cold, and Shinto Scarlet Sako didn't have Erina's divine tongue that could help the rest of the people find loopholes in the cuisine, so it was much more relaxed than others.
"Thank you." Abbe took the teacup, took a sip, put the cup aside, and said to Shinto Scarlet, "Scarlet, you will definitely be a good wife in the future." ”
Shinto Scarlet didn't think about this kind of problem, and she smiled after being mentioned by Abe, she still wanted to be by Erina Nagikiri's side.
Abbe stood up again after resting for a while, and now that the work that needs to be busy in the kitchen has ended, some people go to help others after they are busy with their own things, and everyone wants to see Master Abbe's performance as soon as possible, so naturally they are full of firepower.
Mapo tofu is a famous dish in Sichuan, and the main raw materials are tofu, minced meat, chili pepper and pepper, etc., and to evaluate the real kung fu of a Sichuan chef, it is natural to count the production of mapo tofu.
"Mapo tofu pays attention to the five-in-one, numb, spicy, hot, color, and fragrant, and the key is the balance." Abbe stood in front of the cooking table and began to introduce the chefs around him before he started, and said, "Everyone take two steps back, don't get so close, otherwise you may be splashed with oil later." ”
Everyone regressed in unison, and Alice Nagi also said at this time: "Master Abbe, as far as I know, the most important thing about mapo tofu is the overwhelming [hemp] and [spicy], one is the [spicy] taste of chili pepper that stimulates the tongue, and the other is the [numbness] of Sichuan pepper that can numb the tongue, and Sichuan cuisine is also based on spicy." ”
The rest of the people thought the same thing, and they looked at Abbe and wondered what Master Abbe said.
"In fact, 80% of Sichuan cuisine is not spicy, but the most outstanding is spicy, and as you said, the spicy taste is easier to remember, and after having seasonings, the chef's skills are not so high, plus there are not many chefs who can cook those non-spicy Sichuan dishes, so most people think that Sichuan cuisine is spicy, which is not wrong." Abbe sighed and said, "Cuisine is for people and is developed according to people's preferences, so if most people know it that way, then it is not a mistake. But seeing that everyone thinks so, I still think I need to correct it, and I'll teach you a few non-spicy Sichuan dishes later. ”
Because there is a little ancestor at home who can't eat spicy, Abbe also conducted research on non-spicy Sichuan cuisine and made many dishes suitable for Tianqiu to eat.
In fact, the most suitable thing for Tian Zhongqiu is to take the spicy route, Tian Zhongqiu has a talent for temperature control, and can use [hot] to produce deliciousness, and after combining with spicy, people can feel the enthusiasm in the cuisine more intuitively.
However, it is a pity that Tian Zhongqiu is unwilling to be with the chili powder, and he is not willing to endure the pungent seasoning taste.
"Okay, let's not talk about it, I'm going to start cooking."
Abbe looked at the time, shook the hot pot, and began to cook.
"First of all, ground meat." Abbe poured a plate of ground meat into the pot, and while stir-frying, he said: "During the process of crushing the marinated meat, the muscle fibrin inside forms a gel and sol state, so that the fat is evenly distributed in the protein hydration system, and the viscosity and elasticity of the meat filling are improved. After the raw material is chopped and mixed, theoretically speaking, the myofibrillar protein is activated, the structure is changed, the surface oil is reduced, and the finished product has the characteristics of tenderness and delicacy, and it is easy to digest and absorb. ”
Abbe said and said, he also felt bored, and it was really boring to analyze his own food with science......
Except for Alice, the rest of the people don't care about popular science, they care about the process of production and the points of attention.
"Okay, the ground pork is almost done, now sprinkle in the chopped garlic and bean drums, plus the chili pepper and sweet noodle sauce." Abbe smelled the smell in the pot and stir-fried it regularly to make the taste more harmonious.
"Then, it's a very important seasoning in Sichuan cuisine, bean paste." Abbe expertly scooped half a spoonful from a bowl next to him with a spoon, and after pouring it on the stir-fried ground meat, he said, "The spicy taste of this chili pepper is the first taste, [spicy]. ”
The ground meat in the pan slowly changed color during the stir-frying, and Abbe began to add the stock after the color was stir-fried, and then put the chopped tofu into the pan.
Mapo tofu, just like the name, tofu is the protagonist of this dish.
"Then add wine and seasonings to taste." Abbe poured the seasoning into the pot as he spoke, and he was very skilled in mastering the amount, and he didn't taste it after adding the seasoning, and directly rolled it over low heat.
"After adding soy sauce and sprinkling chopped garlic sprouts, this fragrance is the second taste, [fragrant]!"
The people around smelled the spicy smell in the air, and only felt that there was more liquid in their mouths, this spicy smell was simply cheating, and it directly drove the people who were already a little tired, but now they feel more hungry, and they can't wait to taste this dish!
"Even if it's not finished yet, it's delicious!" Kikuchi Enguo swallowed his saliva, feeling that he hadn't been so eager to taste the food for a long time, and this level of cooking was simply the difference between heaven and earth compared to the food I saw at the autumn selection last time!
Xinhu Scarlet Shazi hadn't forgotten one thing, and at this time he said in a very strange tone: "This ...... Seems like it's just the first dish, right? And it's still an unfinished ......"
"The [red] of the chili pepper and the [white] of the tofu present a contrasting beauty, in addition to the [green] of the garlic sprouts, the harmony between the three colors of red, white and green, this is the third taste, [color]!" Abbe didn't pay attention to the words of the people around him and continued to finish his own cooking.
"Put the raw potato flour in the water, then pour it into the pan to thicken and slide the oil into the pan along the rim."
After making sure that the people around him were far enough away from him, Abbe turned up the flame below to the maximum, and the flame was instantly higher than the iron pot, and the people around him felt a burst of heat while standing.
"Before the mapo tofu is cooked, the pot must be hot to the point of almost burning, so that its flavor and memory can be brought out to the highest point! This is the fourth flavor that is cleverly hot - [hot]! ”
The spicy smell wrapped in the flame condensed under the blessing of the temperature, and this time everyone obviously felt that the spicy taste in the air was much less, but everyone looked at Abbe, and their appetite was even stronger, just looking at the red, green and white ingredients that flew up from time to time, everyone felt the deliciousness from the taste and the scorching air.
"This is the power of Master Abbe!" The female manager was fascinated when she saw Master Abbe's posture and this all-pervasive temptation.
"After the oil floats, quickly pour it into a plate, and finally sprinkle it with a special pepper." Abbe sprinkled small peppers on each plate, and after turning down the heat, said, "Pepper can paralyze the spicy tongue, and that's the last taste, [hemp]!" ”
"Bent!"
After the final taste was completed, Abbe put the plates of mapo tofu in front of him on the table on the side, and Shinto Scarlet Shazi also came to help at this time, a total of six plates of mapo tofu.
After placing it, everyone couldn't help it anymore and began to taste it with spoons, and Shinto Scarlet Sand also cleverly brought the last plate to Erina Nagikiri, "Erina-sama, please use it." ”
"Then I'm welcome~" Alice unceremoniously scooped a spoonful from the plate brought by Shinto Scarlet, and then looked at the brightly colored mapo tofu, and put it into the big mouth that had been opened with satisfaction.
Erina didn't quarrel with Alice either, she couldn't care so much at this time, and while Alice was taking it, Erina also scooped a spoonful and put it in her mouth.
Xinhu Scarlet Shazi looked at the side a little overwhelmed, but looked at his Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo with the innocent eyes of a small animal, and also took the initiative to say: "Senior sister, do you want to come together?" ”
"Well, thank you!" Kikuchi Sono also showed a relaxed smile, then ran over and scooped a spoonful, and when he put it to his mouth, he felt the spicy taste, and after swallowing his saliva, he also blew it gently, and then put the white tofu stained with red sauce and small slices of green garlic into his mouth.

"It's burning! Whew, ......, I felt like my whole body was on fire! ...... exhale," the female manager said as she exhaled, and her face was also filled with happiness.
Erina Nagikiri said intoxicated while eating, "Tongue...... Call...... My tongue seems to have melted ......, it's so hot~ I want to eat ......"
"The fatigue caused by work on the body was also burned by this flame, and the fat on the whole body seemed to be burning, obviously not very spicy, nor very numb, but the impact of the spices was unprecedentedly strong, as if it was injected with a full stomach of energy!" Kikuchi Enguo opened his mouth, and after swallowing the smooth and hot tofu in his mouth, he felt that his whole body was hot, and he was tickled by one part, full of power!
Especially the European pie on the chest, after being filled with strength, it was even more uncomfortable, and at the same time it was comfortable, and it slowly climbed to the peak, I really wanted to be violated...... (To be continued.) )
