The stone hanging in Sikong Yao's heart finally sank, and after being at ease, he couldn't help but find that he was already nervous and broke out in a cold sweat.

Wiping the cold sweat from the palms of his hands, Sikong Yao scolded with a smile: "Congshuang is really good, what did you do to make the time so rushed?" ”

But Shui Ying frowned, and said puzzledly: "From the frost she ...... I don't think I ...... done yet."

"What?" Sikong Yao looked at it, but he didn't see Su Cong's frost stove rising, just gently patted the flour hanging on his hand, and then rinsed the cutting board with clean water, and placed a bamboo knife on the side.

"The words of the bamboo knife ......" Bai Xia muttered, muttered for a while, and then said: "Is it a light dish, I'm afraid it's not a second......"

After hearing Bai Xia's opinion, Shui Ying frowned slightly and said, "Why did Little Brother Bai say that? ”

Bai Xia looked at Su Congshuang with a bit of sorrow, and immediately explained: "The twelve dishes presented earlier, except for Lin Xiaodan's Arctic shell sashimi, the rest are all mixed with condiments to bring out the umami of the shell itself, and it is extremely good. ”

Shui Ying gritted her teeth with difficulty, and her palms clenched tightly into fists, very worried. However, when he looked at Su Congshuang's body again, he didn't see her wavering, but smiled.

Xie Xiongfei's brows furrowed slightly, there was not much time at the moment, there was only less than ten minutes left, and looking at Su Congshuang's preparation, he didn't even have a seashell ready.

"Little girl? I can't guess what you do. What the hell are you going to do with shell dishes? ”

Su Congshuang grinned, turned to the side, revealing a pot behind him, and then said, "My shell dishes are in this pot." ”

Su Congshuang turned around, raised his left hand, lifted the lid of the pot, and then a pure aroma, without a trace of impurities, slowly wafted out.

Xie Xiongfei sucked hard. Inhale the aroma into your nose. sighed: "Good soup, when I asked, I knew that it was a broth that had been carefully boiled for several hours, and it was also a clear soup that had been carefully hung!" ”

Su Congshuang nodded and said, "Hmm." Clear soup indeed. It's been hoisted three times. ”

Xie Xiongfei was slightly stunned. exclaimed: "Ordinary clear soup, it is the limit to hang twice, but you actually hang it three times." It's a bit redundant. ”

Su Congshuang explained: "Because this soup has been boiled twice before and after, it needs to be hung more than once. ”

After hearing Su Congshuang's explanation, Xie Xiongfei cast his eyes far away, but found that there was a pot of water in the pot.

Xie Xiongfei's eyes were round in shock, and he sighed: "It must have taken a lot of effort to be able to cook HD as clean as water, right?" ”

Su Congshuang nodded and said humbly: "Hehe, it's okay." ”

Xie Xiongfei was intrigued by Su Congshuang's mouthful of clear soup, and then said, "Then what are you going to cook?" What's the use of this pot of clear soup? ”

Su Congshuang grinned, lifted the white gauze on the side again, and then revealed the two sharp grains of rice hidden under Qi, which were as thick as chopsticks.

Sikong Yao had never seen such cooked food, and his face was melancholy, and he wondered, "What is this...... That's a lot of rice. ”

As a Chaoshan native, Xie Xiongfei naturally recognized what it was, it was not a sturdy rice, but a kind of kueh food in the Chaoshan area, called Jianmi Pills.

Jianmi pills are a famous Han snack in Chaoshan area, Guangdong, which is a round two-pointed rice snack made of Chaoshan high-quality rice, glutinous rice, sharp rice and other rice.

The sharp rice balls that Chaoshan people usually cook and eat, the Chaoshan people are commonly known as "sharp rice", and the cooking process pays attention to the style of "clear, fresh and skillful". To keep the condiments fresh, first soak the balls in boiling water, then merge into the piping hot pork bone soup, add meat slices, squid, cuttlefish breast, shrimp and other condiments, adjust with fish sauce, pepper and other ingredients, and finally, sprinkle a few slices of verdant coriander or green onion beads on the clear soup noodles, and the white balls and bright meat slices form a harmonious tone, a beautiful taste, and a beautiful shape. To the amazement of customers, and in addition to tasting, you can also get psychological satisfaction, Jianmai Maru is a famous local snack in Chaoshan, which is the land of rice.

The most famous Guan Ye Gong Qian Jian Rice Pill Shop in Chaoshan area, located in Guan Ye Palace, Fort Town, Jiedong County, has been loved by people for generations for its fresh and tender meats, delicious and mellow soup, and unique cooking technology. As early as more than 120 years ago in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the fort has become a prosperous commercial port, located in the center of the town in front of the Guanye Palace rice market is active and prosperous, more than 10 snack stalls are fiercely competitive. In order to attract business, Wu Chengjing and Wu Shuxin, two small food stalls of Xinzhai villagers, ingeniously created a small food with local specialty sharp rice as raw materials, sharp balls at both ends, and shaped like sharp rice, cooked as soup, with a unique style, and a moment of customers overflowing, causing a sensation in the market. The boss of Guan Ye Palace, the former Jianmimaru, also has a broad mind to help the poor. At that time, the "Jianmi Nine Shop" opened in front of the Guan Ye Palace, because of the operation of Jianmi pills famous, made money, and was kind and charitable, every time a poor countryman came to the store to beg for food, the shopkeeper gave porridge, sprinkled some soy sauce marinade, or with some things like minced fish and meat. Dan is the crystalline lumps formed by the freezing of meat soups such as braised soup, fish, and meat) after eating. The owner and his guys who sell Jianmiwan often take the bits and pieces of fish jelly in the store to the poor people to eat, which shows the poverty alleviation and plight of the Jianmiwan boss!

With the spring breeze of reform and opening up, the sharp rice pill in front of the Guan Ye Palace glows with new brilliance. From the two patents in the past to the current co-prosperity, it has been inherited as a popular snack. If you are interested in coming to Fortress Town to taste, whether you walk into the simple food stalls in the meat and vegetable markets before and after Guanye Palace, or climb the luxurious restaurants and restaurants on Zhongxing Avenue and Hanhua Avenue, it will not take long for a bowl of steaming and fragrant Jianmiwan soup to be served on the table in front of you. The owner is hospitable and can add soup to taste as needed, and its high-quality balls and unique flavor are even better than in previous years. The prosperity of the Kanya Rice Pill is conducive to the development of food culture and is also a good promotion for tourism.

The preparation method of Jianmi pills is to select local fine rice, soak it in clean water for 3 to 4 hours, pick it up and put it in the stone mill, roll it into rice milk, take gauze to filter the rice milk, remove coarse impurities, and then pour it into the pot and add heat, stir it with a wooden stick, turn it to slow fire after the water temperature is 60 or 70 degrees, boil it into a paste, cool and condense into a block, with one-third of the raw pulp, knead it into a ball, and then take a wooden board full of small round holes with a diameter of 0.5 cm in advance, put it on the top of the water holding water, heat it over slow fire, and then turn it into "crab day water", that is, put the pulp on the wooden board and rub it, press it hard to drip down the small round hole and leak down the ding, because the pulp is half-cooked, squeeze out the round hole of the ball body of about 2 cm each, the two ends fall into a pointed shape, the ding is cooked, it becomes a small and exquisite sharp rice pill. Because it has gone through more than 10 processes, it is very fine, the ball body is flexible and lubricated, slightly elastic, and the soup feels tender and delicious.

Xie Xiongfei smiled: "I know, what you want to make is thin-shelled rice tip rice ball soup, right?" I heard that the original title of Jinzen cuisine was thin shells, but because the ingredients were too scarce, it was changed to shellfish dishes, but I didn't expect you to stick to it. ”

As the first chef of Chaoshan, Xie Xiongfei has experienced countless culinary duels in his life, and he also showed considerable affirmation of Su Congshuang's persistence.

Jianmi rice balls, pork dumplings, and thin-shell rice are the main ingredients, and the ingredients are shallots, jinbuchang, fish sauce, monosodium glutamate, and pepper. Take water and boil, put sharp rice balls and meat dumplings and boil together, adjust the flavor with fish sauce and monosodium glutamate, put in the thin-shelled rice and cook thoroughly, add the shallots and Jin Bu change bowls that are cut into flowers first, and sprinkle some pepper when eating. It is similar to red meat and rice porridge, and it can make people eat three bowls full.

But even so, Xie Xiongfei couldn't help but worry about it, although he didn't say it explicitly, he was really muttering in his heart: "Although this thin-shelled rice tip pill is good, if you want to pass me, it will be troublesome." ”

In order to prevent the guests from going hungry, Xie Xiongfei deliberately set up a front of the meal to provide a small bowl of light staple food for the seated guests to temporarily relieve the hunger of the stomach. And the extremely unfortunate thing is that the food provided by the front of the meal arranged and planned by Xie Xiongfei is the sharp rice ball soup that Su Congshuang will make, for this dish, Xie Xiongfei's requirements are extremely harsh!

Xie Xiongfei didn't care what kind of food Su Congshuang could make, just for the three words of Jianmiwan, he wouldn't let it go easily, and immediately shouted: "Little girl, I don't care about anything else, but if you want to make Jianmiwan soup, I'm afraid it's very difficult for me to pass this level." ”

Xie Xiongfei's family was poor since he was a child, and it was difficult to eat a full meal when he was a child, not to mention meat, seafood was even more desirable, and the most luxurious time was during the New Year's holidays, and the family could only buy some minced meat, as for seafood and shellfish, he could only eat thin shells, so he had deep feelings for thin-shelled rice tip rice ball soup. And it was precisely the poverty of his family that inspired him to want to become rich, and with the idea of letting his old mother live a good life, he made a fortune on the road of cooking.

"If you can't come up with a dish that impresses me, let alone this duel in front of the gods, I'm afraid your cooking journey will not be smooth in the future."

Xie Xiongfei regarded this dish as a motto on the road of cooking, and Su Congshuang's meeting could be said to be loaded with a gun.

However, Su Congshuang didn't think so, and just smiled lightly: "Yes, Master Chef, my cooking will definitely satisfy you, and there is another thing that needs to be instated, that is, I make shell dishes." (To be continued......)
