Chapter 192: Red Beans and Diced Orange
In the face of Abigail's provocation without shying away from words, even the gentle-tempered Lin Jiang seemed to be angry, after all, as a man, there is always a blood flowing in his body that does not admit defeat, especially when he is provoked by a weak person in his consciousness, the anger in his heart is like filling with diesel, and it is so hot that it cannot be calmed.
Ulris was afraid that the game would not make any big moves, and he waited for such a misfire, and he didn't mind throwing another torch into it, in order to make the whole game more interesting.
So Uris naturally won't miss this opportunity, and said to Lin Jiang inside: "In the face of Abigail's dense red bean soft and fragrant chiffon, I don't know how Lin Jiang will feel?" ”
Lin Jiang barely squeezed out a smile, he had always been quite cultivated, he told himself that he couldn't turn his face on this occasion, so he could only say: "I look forward to Abigail's little brother will perform even better, because sometimes people should always learn to be humble, so that they can improve, instead of relying on a mouth all day long to be majestic." ”
Abigail said in a vague voice, "That's right, so you should listen to me and get rid of your so-called salted oranges." ”
Lin Jiang was already laughing more ugly than crying at this moment, Abigail was completely angry with him, no matter what, he had to teach this little hairy boy who didn't understand human feelings a little lesson.
Lin Jiang responded: "Then I want to see what kind of fame your broken red bean can make." ”
Abigail shook his head helplessly and said, "You're just wasting your time, hurry up." Don't waste everyone's time. ”
Lin Jiang no longer paid attention to Abigail. Focus all on your own cooking. Even those who are not familiar with him can see at this moment that he is really angry.
Sikong Yao looked at Abigail from below, with a look of arrogance that didn't know the height of the sky, and also looked at Louis helplessly. Although Abigail's strength is indeed good, it seems that Louis does not give him much guidance in terms of how to behave in the world.
However, it is obvious that Louis did not mean this either, looking at Abigail who was showing off his power on the stage, Louis did not have a trace of emotional change on his face. As if it were all taken for granted.
Sikong Yao could only sigh helplessly, it seems that Abigail's arrogance is also used to by Louis.
Yilian beside him also shook his head frequently, and said helplessly: "Who is this child?" It's so arrogant, I don't know how his family taught him. ”
Sikong Yao responded: "He is Louis's nephew. ”
Yi Lian's eyes widened, and he said, "Is that the dessert master?" The one who finished third last time at the Liuli Food Festival? ”
Sikong Yao nodded and said, "Yes, it's her, Abigail is her personal apprentice." ”
Yi Lian showed a somewhat disgusted expression and said, "No, how could Master Louis teach such an apprentice." ”
Sikong Yao didn't have the heart to pay attention to these. Subjective factors aside, Abigail is still very strong.
Abigail's honey red beans. It can be said to be an all-purpose filling in the baking industry, and can be used not only to make red bean bread, red bean cake, red bean egg rolls, red bean tarts, red bean hair cakes, but also to be processed into red bean yogurt, red bean smoothie, red bean coconut milk cake, and so on. Therefore, for many friends who like to eat sweets, honey red beans are definitely a loyal companion, and even more, they will have some honey red beans in their refrigerator. First, when making snacks, take it out at any time, which is very convenient, and secondly, even if you are lazy, occasionally sprinkle a handful of bread and yogurt, it is also so comfortable that it is not good.
However, honey red beans are also particular, not only requiring them to be delicious, but also emphasizing that they are "intact" honey red beans.
The method of boiling honey red beans is to boil red beans with a pot of water, once the water is boiled, it is immediately replaced with cold water, and the water is constantly changed, and the constant stirring is very troublesome, and it is an extremely patient method.
And the process of changing the water is also very particular, a slight difference in the pool will destroy the effect of the red beans, if you want to cook out the "complete beans" is not easy, some experienced masters can not be lazy, a little down, either the beans are not boiled, or the beans are blooming, and more seriously the boiling of the beans is wasted, that is, the nutrition of the beans is lost.
Therefore, the honey red bean looks simple, but in fact it is sloppy, for such a cumbersome process, in such a fierce confrontation process will be selected by Abigail, I have to say that it is a little sloppy.
Yuris approached Abigail and asked, "Abigail, don't you think it's a hasty decision to cook honey red beans during the game, have you ever thought about changing the ingredients?" ”
Abigail shook his head and said, "No, this is the best choice, as long as you grasp the key points of cooking honey red beans, you will be fine." ”
Yuris then asked, "Oh? Can you share with you what this point is? ”
Abigail vetoed: "No. ”
Of course, Yuris knew that Abigail would not be able to divulge the secret to his opponent during the cooking process, so he immediately responded: "Well, I wish you can cook delicious red beans, and of course you can't forget that the topic of this competition is chiffon cake." The two of you must not stage a duel between honey red beans and salted orange cubes. ”
Yi Lian asked Sikong Yao curiously below: "Sikong Yao, what is the red bean?" ”
Sikong Yao responded: "Red beans, also known as sea red beans, are also called red beans. The smell of red beans has a faint sweetness, soft and glutinous when boiled into soup, and has a moisturizing effect on the heart and spleen, it is a widely used ingredient in pastry food, and it is cultivated in the north and south of our country, and overseas is the Congo and Uganda in the Americas and Africa, and red beans are also introduced, and you may not have it in the Philippines. ”
Yilian nodded and said, "Boiled into soup, isn't that the same thing as mung beans?" ”
Sikong Yao explained: "Mung beans and red beans are in the same family, but mung beans are cold, unlike red beans, which are suitable for most people. ”
Yilian smiled: "Oh, then I know, mung bean soup is delicious, and red bean soup must be delicious, right?" ”
Sikong Yao responded: "Of course." ”
Ilian then asked, "What is the honey red bean?" ”
"Honey red beans are red beans that have been boiled in sugar water, which can be used to dilute the filling, and the resulting thing will have a faint glutinous rice fragrance." Sikong Yao explained.
Yilian licked his lips and said with a smile: "Then what is the point of Abigail about boiling honey red beans?" I'd also like to give it a try, if I can add it to my cuisine. ”
Sikong Yao explained: "I don't know what Abigail said, but I know that if you want to cook honey red beans, at least you must ensure that the red beans are intact and do not bloom, and the most important thing is to grasp the amount of water." ”
Yilian frowned slightly and said, "Water? ”
Sikong Yao nodded and said, "That's right, it's water." When boiling honey red beans, you need to change the water repeatedly, and in this process, if you add too much water, the beans will bloom if they are soaked in too much water, and they will be cooked badly, affecting the taste. Once there is less water, the beans will be undercooked, the shell will be sandwiched, and the skin will wrinkle, which will affect the taste. If you don't get the amount of water right, the beans will either not swell and taste hard, or they will be so soft and tasteless. ”
Yilian frowned bitterly and asked, "How many milliliters of water do you need?" ”
Sikong Yao smiled: "This can't be grasped with a specific amount, but by feeling." The amount of water should be just over the beans, and the amount should be about half a bean's height. At the same time, the beans must also be spread flat at the bottom of the pot, and there can be no stacking, because if the beans are pressed at the bottom, it will absorb water at the bottom, and in the end it will only cause the beans at the bottom to expand and boil and bloom, while the beans on the top cannot absorb water, so they cannot expand and are not cooked. ”
Yilian nodded as if he didn't understand, and said, "I see." What about salted diced oranges? ”
Sikong Yao said: "What about salted orange dices......"
"Let me explain it myself, I don't mind sharing the food of our hometown with friends who have come from afar."
For salted orange dices, Lin Jiang obviously has more say in it.
Yuris keenly grasped the information, and immediately came to Lin Jiang's side, and hurriedly asked, "Then please ask our Mr. Lin Jiang to share with us the story about salted orange cubes." ”
Lin Jiang did not mean to be stingy, but said eloquently: "After the salted diced orange is pickled, there will be salt to bring out the taste of the orange peel, and at the same time neutralize the bitter taste, and only a faint umami and the sweet aroma of the orange itself will be left when eaten, which can be eaten as a snack in our hometown, which is a kind of candied fruit." Diced orange is washed and dried with salt, the cycle is slightly longer, at least it needs to be pickled for more than a month, and the longer the pickling time, the better the effect of anti-inflammatory and cough relief, in many areas of Guangdong, basically every family has a can of salted orange diced or salted kumquat pickled for a year or two, and there is nothing to do to soak a few pieces of water prepared to clear the lungs and moisten the throat, and it is very enjoyable. My salted diced oranges have been reworked with my original treatment, which blends perfectly into desserts and blends with a hint of saltiness to create a more wonderful sweetness. ”
Yuris sighed with emotion: "I didn't think that this small ingredient, red beans and orange dices have such a big knowledge, it really opened my eyes, this sweet and salty, red and yellow, red beans and orange dices, who can be more suitable for our chiffon cake, it is really incomparably exciting."
