Chapter 206: Pumpkin Pie

No one knows what happened, but it happened, and the moment John threw Mr. K out, it wasn't Mr. K, who looked weak, but John who was physically muscious.

No one understood how this happened, especially as Ulis at the time, and Mr. K, who was standing in front of him, miraculously turned the situation around. Despite what was happening in front of him, Yuris only saw Mr. K's figure move, and John was thrown out of the way in a flash of lightning, falling to the ground like a helpless dumb cannonball.

John was even more like seeing a ghost, obviously lifting Mr. K effortlessly, but his hand seemed to be tightly wrapped around something, and then it was as if it had been shoveled away by an excavator.

Mr. K said innocently: "It seems that the fall is not light, it really hurts." ”

John gritted his teeth and stood up, originally wanting to step forward to seek justice, but he didn't dare to take another step closer to Mr. K, this kind of strength was no longer something he could match.

Ke Yundan reprimanded: "If you don't come back soon, you will be embarrassed!" ”

As if he had found a backer, Yuris quietly moved his steps and stood behind Mr. K for a moment when no one noticed, allowing Mr. K's large figure to cover him because of his trench coat.

John gritted his teeth and glared viciously at Yuris, who was hiding behind Mr. K, who also looked over and asked, "Can you continue playing?" So far, I haven't had a duel topic that I'm good at, and it's getting dark, so I don't want to put it off until tomorrow. ”

John clenched his fists tightly. Although I can't get tired of this breath anyway. But because of Mr. K's strength. John had no choice but to stop there.

Of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to pull down a cruel sentence and said, "Yuris, you kid wait for me!" ”

Yuris said proudly: "Come on, I'm afraid you won't make it?" ”

Ke Yundan said slightly angrily: "Enough, hurry up and come back to me!" ”

John ended up stomping heavily on the ground, and there was nothing else he could do.

Mr. K turned his head and asked Yuris, "That...... Can the game go on? ”

Yuris nodded and said, "Of course." How can we help you? ”

Mr. K said embarrassedly: "It's nothing, it's just that this dress is a little stuffy, if only I could end the game earlier." ”

Yuris responded, "Well, okay, I know, we're going to speed up the game." ”

Mr. K nodded in acknowledgment, "That couldn't be better." ”

Yuris whispered, "Thank you for what you just did." ”

Mr. K nodded and gestured politely.

Yuris continued his, presiding, "Sorry, there was some minor trouble just now, let's get back to the game." The title of the fifth round of cooking duel, fruit pie. The defending side is Li Ximu, and the attacking side is Yilian. Due to the high difficulty of the questions. The score of this duel has a bonus of 1 percent. ”

After seeing Yuris's fierce side, no one dared to dispute his score bonus to any player at this time.

After the match began, Yuris walked up to Ilian first and asked, "Illian, what kind of pie are you going to do?" ”

"On Thanksgiving, the same thing as apple pie is pumpkin pie," Irian explains. ”

Yuris nodded hurriedly and said, "Oh, it turned out to be pumpkin pie, interesting." ”

Illian nodded, and replied, "Yes, the delicious and nutritious pumpkin pie is perfect for a party." Traditional pumpkin pies are made with a deep-mouthed pie plate, PieDih, which is usually made with canned pumpkin puree with condensed milk and sugar for simplicity. But I'm going to make the pumpkin pie with the MiniTartDish, which looks smaller, more stylish, and takes almost half the time to bake. In addition, I also started to roast pumpkin to make pumpkin puree filling, which is fresher and more delicious, and for the sake of health, condensed milk and sugar have also been replaced with honey and eggs, which is more natural and healthier! ”

Yuris said curiously, "Oh? It's really fun to make a pie with a plate of a tower, but doesn't that turn into a pumpkin tart? ”

Yilian shook his head and said, "It's pie, it's pie!" It's a lot more complicated than a tower or something. ”

Yuris nodded and said, "Okay, looking forward to your performance, come on." ”

51/4 cup flour, 1/2 1/2 cup frozen butter (6 ounces), 3/4 cup vegetable shortening and refrigerated, 2 teaspoons of salt, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 1 cup of ice water, 1 chicken for garnish. Colouring sauce: Use 1 egg white and a little milk.

The recipe for Ilian's pie crust is very simple, but it takes a lot of work to make it on a tray, and this mini-party chef is very demanding.

Mix the flour, sugar and salt, add the vegetable puff pastry and butter cut into 0.5 cm thin slices, and pinch and cut the butter into soybean size with your hands or a butter knife. Add ice water, gently stir several times to press the dough, divide it into quarters, press it into a dough, put it in a plastic bag and quickly cool it with ice water to make the puff pastry shrink.

The process of making pies in the tray seems to be sloppy, first take out a dough and put it on the cutting board, sprinkle a little dry flour in the middle of two layers of plastic film or baking paper, roll out the dough into a round dough, two or three centimeters larger than the diameter of the mold, and carefully stick the dough to the bottom of the plate. The force must be constant throughout the process, and the slightest mistake can crush the pie crust.

The adorable Ilian will also crumble the leftovers from the cut corners into a ball, press them into thin slices, and use molds to press them out into the shape of a pumpkin or a leaf. Decorate the edges of the pumpkin slices and pie crust with egg whites, sprinkle a little granulated sugar on top of the pumpkin for a natural look.

The pumpkin pie is made up of about 1400g pumpkin, 1/2 cup of honey, 2 tablespoons of flour, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of shredded lemon peel, 3/4 teaspoon of ginger powder, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of salt, 4 eggs, and 1/2 cup of milk.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Divide the pumpkin into two, remove the seeds and put the knife edge down on the baking sheet, put it in the oven to bake, remove the pumpkin flesh and crush it, add the rest of the ingredients and stir well.

While there's no spectacular technique in the whole process, the orderly and masterful handling is eye-catching, especially the mini pumpkin pie that has not yet been baked and is already mouth-watering, and it's hard to imagine how tempting it can be when baked and colored.

The ultra-mini pumpkin pie has obviously won the favor of many people, especially women, and the results have not yet come out, and Ilian seems to have won the game.

Obviously, Li Ximu was a little confused about the topic of fruit pie, but he could probably still make something enough to see, but Yuris was obviously not interested in talking to him.

Li Ximu chose to make a blood orange citrus pie, and he knew that he was not inferior to Yilian, so he avoided going head-to-head with Yilian, and instead started with the filling, using sour blood orange and delicious citrus to create a charming amber color, intending to use it as a killer feature.

Looking at Yilian's calm and calm appearance, Sikong Yao was full of confidence in her somehow.

What did not disappoint Sikong Yao was that Yilian really won the game smoothly, with an unexpectedly high score, 97.21, and easily defeated Li Ximu, who scored only 95.12.

However, the honest Li Ximu did not complain, but humbly asked: "Can you tell me how to make a delicious pie?" ”

Yilian responded obediently: "Of course, uncle, the fruit pie you made is actually very good, the combination of blood orange and citrus is simply first-class, the charming color and taste are enough to impress people's hearts, if the pie crust can be made even better, it will be perfect." ”

Li Ximu nodded and asked, "What should I do with Paipi's words?" I used the method of cooking soda crackers, but the pie crust was not crispy enough. ”

Yilian shook his head and said: "It's different, the pie crust is crispy, while the biscuits are crispy, and the difference in the amount of flour determines that the two dishes cannot be mixed." Compared with soda, which pays attention to craftsmanship, pie crust pays more attention to details. First of all, the container for making the pie should be made of glass, ceramic or black metal, the temperature ensures that the pie crust can keep the prototype unchanged before baking, and to make the pie crust crispy, add ghee to the flour in addition to unsalted butter. Adding a little vinegar or lemon juice to a cup of flour to a teaspoon of vinegar or lemon juice can also make the rolling process easier. Secondly, the temperature should be low when making pie skin, and it is best to operate on the marble slab; Butter and ghee must be refrigerated before use; Ice water should be used for water. Because your hands are warm, try to touch the dough as little as possible. To cool down, wash your hands with ice water. The dough should not be kneaded excessively, and the dough would rather be wet than dry. Add water spoonful by spoonful, leave some water when mixing the dough, and adjust the amount of water according to the characteristics of the flour. Add water until the dough is pressed by hand and can be glued. When rolling the dough, use as little dry powder as possible. The dough can be rolled between two sheets of plastic film or baking kraft paper to reduce sticking and the use of flour. When rolling the skin, you should force it from the middle outward, otherwise the periphery will be over-squeezed. To measure the size of the dough, you can put the baking tray upside down in the center of the dough, and the dough should be two or three centimeters wider than the edge of the baking sheet. To make the bottom crust more crunchy, rub a little oil or flour on a baking sheet. When laying the dough on a baking sheet, be careful not to pull the dough, otherwise it is easy to make holes. These are very detailed treatments, although insignificant, but a little bit of piling up can also make the pie crust more delicious. ”

Li Ximu got a good one, and after thanking Yilian, he went down the stage satisfied.

Yilian threw a smug smile at Sikong Yao in the audience, as if to say, "Look, how is it?" Win it. ”

Sikong Yao looked at the naughty Yilian, and also laughed, cooking is not an earth-shattering thing, just like the pace of pursuing happiness, as long as the steps are solid enough, you can reach the end without walking like flying. (To be continued......)
