Fan Muqing and Xie Tingshan also liked this chicken floss, but they were not as persistent about this dish as Chi Meng, but looked at a vegetarian dish next to them together. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Both of them are vegetarians, and they have always paid attention to their figures, and they don't dare to eat too much meat.

Today at Wing Kee Restaurant, they have eaten more meat than they have eaten at home during the entire Chinese New Year!

Thinking that they would definitely gain a lot of weight after going back today, the two of them felt like crying without tears.

It's not that they don't want to insist, it's that the "opponents" are too cunning for them to resist!

Fan Muqing and Xie Jishan's favorite vegetarian dish is chrysanthemum tofu.

Not only is it beautiful in appearance, but it also tastes great, and people can't put it down.

Chrysanthemum tofu, as the name suggests, is naturally made of tofu in the shape of a chrysanthemum.

This dish is said to be a vegetarian dish, but it can barely be related to dessert.

Making tofu in the shape of a chrysanthemum is not an easy task, and it is especially a test of the chef's knife skills.

When Fu Yonghan was teaching people to cook in Jiudingxiang, he had tested the other party's knife skills. At that time, the test method was mainly tofu.

At that time, Fu Yonghan also missed a hand, and what he did was the preliminary preparation of chrysanthemum tofu.

It's hard enough to shred the tofu, but it also needs to be cut into chrysanthemums and keep the shape uncluttered...... That's not something that ordinary people can do!

When making a new menu, whether to add this dish really made Fu Yonghan hesitate for a while.

And what finally made her up to her mind was that there were people in the kitchen who could meet her requirements.

One is Sun Shi, who was newly recruited into the kitchen, and the other is Zhang Hai, Fu Yonghan's second apprentice.

Both of them had spent time in chef schools, but neither was rigid in dogma and had their own set of ideas. Not only are they excellent cooks, but they are also very good at knife skills.

Zhang Hai was several years younger than Sun Shi, and his knife work was originally inferior to Sun Shi. However, compared to Sun Shi, Zhang Hai's advantage is that he has a good master!

Since Zhang Hai worshipped Fu Yonghan as his teacher, Fu Yonghan taught him a lot of things. Among these things, knife work is a very important one.

Yu Kangning's knife skills have also improved, but unfortunately the time he has entered this industry is too short after all, and the accumulation is not enough, compared with Zhang Hai, there is still a distance.

This time, Fu Yonghan mainly handed over the production of chrysanthemum tofu to Sun Shi and Zhang Hai, but it greatly stimulated Yu Kangning, and Yu Kangning, who was already working very hard, added a lot of homework to himself in private.

Cutting tofu into chrysanthemum shapes, in fact, there is a special knife method, the name is called chrysanthemum knife.

And when cutting tofu, it is not cut on a cutting board, but directly in the hands of the chef.

A piece of tofu should be cut horizontally and vertically by more than 50 knives, and there should be no mistake in the middle. After the chrysanthemum knife method is used, you should carefully put the cut tofu in your hand into a transparent glass bowl filled with water, and there should be no mistakes.

Such a piece of cut tofu only needs to be gently picked with chopsticks, and the shredded tofu can be slowly removed.

Each piece of tofu shredded with the chrysanthemum knife method must be cut to the thickness of a hair, and it must also be distinct, so that when stretched out in the water, each tofu shredded can be seen clearly.

This is why Fu Yonghan hesitated at the beginning.

It's so hard to do that.

And if it's done well, it's a different realm entirely.

After the cut chrysanthemum tofu is stretched out in water, the tofu shreds look crystal clear, white as jade, and so beautiful that they are like works of art. Not only that, in the process of stretching, these shredded tofu are clearly like a chrysanthemum slowly blooming, until it is fully bloomed.

This is especially true for live productions or video tutorials, where the production process alone is very aesthetically pleasing and addictive.

However, the chrysanthemum tofu that Fu Yonghan made today did not put the tofu directly into the water.

On the contrary, she makes chrysanthemum tofu by putting the cut tofu in a frying pan and then using chopsticks to stir it into a chrysanthemum shape. And when the chrysanthemum shape is formed, the tofu is basically fried to the shape, keeping the chrysanthemum image unchanged.

Remove the fried chrysanthemum tofu from the pot and you can directly put it on a plate.

Of course, serving is not the same as serving.

Once the tofu is ready, cook the orange juice in another clean pot. If the taste of orange juice is too weak, you can also add some lemon juice to it. Then add sugar to the orange juice, and watch the orange juice in the pot start to bubble slightly, and then you can take the orange juice out of the pot.

After getting out of the pot, pour the boiled orange juice directly on top of the chrysanthemum tofu, and the dish is ready.

When Fan Muqing and the three of them saw this chrysanthemum tofu for the first time, they thought it was a real chrysanthemum, but they didn't expect that this would be made of ordinary tofu.

The main reason is that the plate of chrysanthemum tofu in front of them is not from Zhang Hai or Sun Shi, but made by Fu Yonghan himself!

Her knife work has already reached the point of being superb, and it is obviously not comparable to Zhang Hai and Sun Shi.

Not only that, but her control of the heat is also exceptional.

So the chrysanthemum tofu she made has naturally reached the point where it is fake, and ordinary people will not recognize it at all if they don't look carefully.

Chi Meng ate his favorite chicken floss, and he didn't forget to give this chrysanthemum tofu a piece out of the corner of his eye.

Fan Muqing and Xie Jishan were already stunned, and they didn't dare to do anything about the chrysanthemum tofu in front of them.

Fu Yonghan sighed when she saw it, and simply used her skill to sandwich a chrysanthemum tofu on the plate for each of them.

I don't know how she clamped it, obviously the movement is not small, but the chrysanthemum tofu is stunned at all, and it still looks so complete, it almost makes people think that they are dazzled.

Xie Yushan rubbed her eyes, and unbelievingly stretched out the chopsticks in her hand to her chrysanthemum tofu.

As soon as the chopsticks touched the petals of the chrysanthemum tofu, the frightened Xie Yushan's hand suddenly shook, and the petal immediately collapsed.

A flawless chrysanthemum suddenly cracked, making Xie Yushan's brows furrow in distress.

Fan Muqing, who was staring at her movements, also had the same expression.

Fu Yonghan was completely speechless, and said, "Okay, I said that this is not a real chrysanthemum, it is just made of tofu." Even if you don't eat it, it won't be possible to keep it forever, and it's not a waste in the end? It's better to make the most of it. ”

If she had known that their tolerance was so low, if she invited them to dinner in the future, she still didn't cook herself, and let the two apprentices do it. (To be continued.) )
