When Jester and Li Fuzhen were together, they were more relaxed and happy, although he did not finally enter the cooking industry, but he still liked to understand some allusions to cooking.

For example, now Jester told Li Fuzhen an allusion about chopsticks.

Koreans also use chopsticks, after all, their culture is transmitted from the domestic culture, basically no difference, even before the end of the Qing Dynasty, they don't even have their own writing, the whole country is Chinese, and only the aristocracy can learn, ordinary poor people, is not qualified to read, and then the North Korean upper class felt that it was not good, they felt that ordinary people were illiterate and not easy to manage.

Therefore, he gathered intellectuals from all over Korea and specially invented a kind of writing.

What is this writing for?

This is a phonetic script, and its function is to phonetize Chinese characters, just like the pinyin we learn in modern times, and the upper class Koreans disdain to use this script.

Only those untouchables would use this phonetic script.

This shows how important the influence of domestic culture is on the culture of the Korean Peninsula.

THERE IS EVEN SUCH A JOKE IN SOUTH KOREA, STUDENTS OF THE KOREAN HISTORY DEPARTMENT MUST MASTER THE CHINESE LANGUAGE, BECAUSE IF THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND CHINESE, THEY CAN'T READ THEIR COUNTRY'S HISTORY BOOKS AT ALL, LET ALONE THE LAW DEPARTMENT, BECAUSE THE ABSOLUTE ACCURACY REQUIRED BY THE LEGAL PROVISIONS IS IMPOSSIBLE TO EXPRESS ACCURATELY BY RELYING ON A PHONETIC SCRIPT, FOR EXAMPLE, SHABI, THE PHONETIC PRONUNCIATION OF THIS PINYIN, WHO KNOWS IF THIS IS STUPID, OR SHABI, OR SHABI?

Therefore, the laws of Koreans are written in Chinese.

Let's not talk about these for now, let's continue to talk about chopsticks, many cents in modern times often laugh at their own compatriots. Don't know how to use knives and forks, don't know the etiquette of dining is a sign that has not entered the civilized society, it seems that eating with chopsticks is a very embarrassing thing, but in fact, the reason why chopsticks are used in China is because of the superiority and inferiority, chopsticks are more convenient, in the pre-Qin era, our ancestors also used knives and forks.

For example. Old Master Confucius once said that if you don't cut properly, you won't eat.

That is to say, chopsticks eliminate knives and forks, representing the progress of social productive forces, representing the development of the times, representing the rolling forward historical torrent, and representing the replacement of barbarism by civilization.

It can also be seen from this that Westerners are at least two or three thousand years behind us in terms of tableware.

Of course, chopsticks are not late. In the classics, during the Shang Dynasty, there were records of chopsticks, which is also more powerful proof

I heard Jester talk about this allusion to chopsticks and knives and forks. Li Fuzhen also showed a look of surprise on her face, it was the first time she heard that chopsticks had replaced knives and forks before they became the dining tools of the Chinese people, and as early as the Spring and Autumn Period. Knives and forks were used as cutlery, but they were eventually replaced by chopsticks and became obsolete.

Jester looked at his marinated beef. Nodding, the pickling effect is not bad.

While taking out the marinated beef, he said to Li Fuzhen: "Your piece of beef is very good, basically the most suitable part of the whole cow for stir-frying...... Of course, it's not that there is no better, your piece is a willow piece, and its characteristics are smooth enough and tender enough...... Don't underestimate this, because the thick fiber of beef cannot be changed, and the thick fiber means that the meat will be tough, so you can only rely on the ingredients as much as possible to solve this problem......"

"Is there anything better in a cow than this meat?"

Li Fuzhen was very interested in what Jester had just said, so he quickly asked.

"Yes."

Jester nodded: "The willow is slippery, the waist is more slippery, the willow cow is very little, and the number of waist is even less, the accurate way to write the piece is actually plum, and many chefs like to call plum blossom meat is like this." ”

As he spoke, Jester quickly started a pot.

poured a small half pot of oil, started a small fire, and slowly warmed up the oil, seeing Jester doing this, Li Fuzhen asked again: "You pour so much oil...... Isn't that too greasy after frying? ”

"Huh."

Jester smiled.

"It's not fried with these oils, these oils are used to soak tender oil."

Sure enough, as Jester expected, after he finished explaining, Li Fuzhen's face really showed a puzzled look - how could a fried beef, which was not complicated in her eyes, become so troublesome and complicated in Jester's hands? It's pickling, soaking tender oil or something, and there are all kinds of taboos......

"Soak in tender oil......

Jester took a breath, he didn't know how to explain to Li Fuzhen: "...... This is a commonly used pretreatment method in Chinese cooking, called soaking, that is, putting food into hot oil for a short time, because the oil temperature is only about 90 to 100 degrees, which is different from frying, so this pretreatment method is called soaking...... As for the reason for this, it is simple: it can make the ingredients taste better. ”

However, Jester did not explain to Li Fuzhen that although soaking is a Chinese cooking method, it is relatively rare in the family because it is a bit troublesome, and even many restaurants may not use this pretreatment method to process ingredients.

Because of the trouble.

After soaking the marinated beef in tender oil, Jester took it out and set it aside, then poured out a large part of the oil in the pot, leaving only a little base oil, and at the same time, he also turned up the temperature of the flame, because this is the characteristic of this technique, stir-frying is a kind of cooking method that cooks quickly, so the temperature requirements for stir-frying are very high.

Moreover, for beef, only a high fire can seal the gravy, and only when there is more juice, the meat will be smooth and tender.

Wait for the oil to roll, fry the beef on high heat until it is seven mature, and then add flavor and with a small amount of sauce, the sauce is made with soy sauce, that is, soy sauce, starch and water zuò, with an appropriate amount of sauce, Chinese cooking, especially stir-frying, is very strict with the use of sauce, what he requires is to do no more, no less, just hanging, that is to say, the sauce used, all hung on the ingredients, after eating, there can be no sauce in the plate, one is clean.

Finally, put on the plate.

A plate of stir-fried beef overflowing with fresh juice and extremely tender is baked

And Jester started frying and finished frying, but it was only a short dozen seconds, and almost before Li Fuzhen could see anything, a dish that made her index finger move just by smelling the taste appeared in front of her eyes. (To be continued......)
