Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

In the kitchen room, everyone prepares dinner together.

Jiang Yichen was not assigned a specific task, but he was not idle. He took two heads of garlic and watched the whole process of making the braised prawns while peeling them.

I remember when I was a child, my dad used to cook this dish at home, but then he rarely made it. The reason is simple, the market price of prawns is getting more and more expensive, far more than pork, carp, grass carp and other ordinary meats. Daddy is reluctant to buy it.

Lai Shun'er reached out and grabbed a prawn from the bucket, and the prawn struggled desperately, his tail snapped, and the water on his body splashed on his face.

"Hey, that's a lot of fun." He praised from the bottom of his heart.

Then throw the prawns onto the cutting board and press them, pick up the scissors to cut off the whiskers, then cut a hole along the back of the shrimp, pick out the stomach at the front end with a bamboo skewer, and remove the shrimp line. The shrimp are then washed, drained and placed in a stainless steel basin.

After such a long time, Lai Shun'er had already exercised in the kitchen, and her skills were clean and neat, and it didn't take long to finish processing all ten prawns.

Cut some green onions and shredded ginger, throw them into a stainless steel basin, add a little salt and mix well with the prawns, marinate and prepare.

Among them, shredded ginger plays a big role in this, that is, it can remove the fishy smell of shrimp, but also balance the cold of shrimp.

Xizi was stir-frying a few other dishes with the cooperation of Qingqing and Shi Suo'er.

After a while, he freed his hands and began to cook the prawns.

Heat the wok, add soybean oil, let it be, smoke rises in the pot, add green onions and ginger slices and stir-fry, burst out the fragrance and remove it.

Then pour the prawns in the pot into the pot, only to hear the stinging sound, and the white mist rises.

With the white steam dispersed, Kiko added vinegar, cooking wine, dark soy sauce, sugar and salt to the pot one after another, and then slid a wok spoon to stir-fry the prawns.

After a while, the face of the shrimp section changed from blue and gray to red, and the shrimp oil was also fried, and the bottom of the pot was red and bright, and it looked very festive. Then cover the pot and simmer.

At this time, the rich aroma has overflowed through the cracks of the lid and spread to the entire kitchen.

The fragrance spirals like a ribbon and goes straight into the nostrils.

"Hey, it smells so good." Shi Suo'er sniffled and said in praise.

"It's our craft, it's not bad." Kiko said proudly.

"Come on, don't be pretty. This is good, fresh, and it is the same for whoever makes it. Lai Shun'er refuted.

"Look at the pot and be careful not to make a mess." Jiang Yichen hurriedly reminded, for fear that these boys would forget the heat in order to fight.

Kiko muttered and turned her body to the stove.

Half an hour later, all the islanders sat around the rectangular dining table on the second floor of the bamboo building, and the housewarming dinner officially began.

There are a bunch of dishes on the table, and in the center is a large round porcelain plate, which contains the main character of tonight's table - braised prawns.

Ten prawns are arranged in the shape of a windmill, and the shrimp body is a gorgeous golden red sè, dotted with a few clusters of coriander, and the appearance is beautiful.

"This looks good, I think it can be scored eight." Jiang Yichen praised that now these boys have really grown a lot, and they have actually learned to put on plates.

That is, the Chinese food culture is broad and profound, and it pays attention to the sè fragrance and shape. I guess I'm a mid-level chef at best. Kiko heard the compliment, and her face was full of pride.

"What kind of intermediate chef are you, you have been in a cooking school for two years, and you will definitely be better than you when you come out." When Lai Shun'er saw his villain's appearance, he couldn't help but laugh.

"You're jealous." Kiko was naturally unconvinced.

"What's that...... This shrimp has to be eaten while it is hot, it is not good when it is cold. Shi Suo'er reminded.

He didn't have the heart to listen to any food culture and intermediate chefs, his eyes looked at the prawn plate, and he couldn't help swallowing. Slobber.

"Yes, good food has to be served hot. Come on, have a drink, let's go. Jiang Yichen hurriedly opened up his beer glass.

After the beer was eaten, everyone put down their chopsticks and sandwiched a large prawn into a small plate in front of them.

Jiang Yichen peeled off the huge shrimp shell, and the pink-white, crystalline, and plump meat came out, and the pure and rich aroma greeted him, seducing people's appetite.

Put it to the mouth and take a bite, the meat is fine with full elasticity, jumping between the teeth, without condensation, such a taste, it is undoubtedly superior.

Through the slightly sweet and slightly sour surface of the sauce, it is the original flavor of shrimp meat, which is thick and delicious, which is really wonderful.

And with a familiar and peculiar sense of transparency, this is the characteristic of the ingredients nourished by the ice water of the space.

Compared to the shrimp I have tasted before, it is a more vivid interpretation of the purity of the best ingredients, which is a height that can never be achieved by a dish rendered by seasonings.

Having such ingredients has undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for entering the high-end catering industry in the future. Jiang Yichen was very relieved at this time.

"It's delicious."

"It smells so good."

"Chirp ......"

Several people at the same table were eating shrimp, and they praised one by one. I don't even care about eating, and the sound of smacking comes and goes.

That is to say, Qingqing looks relatively elegant, peeling off the shrimp shell and taking a small bite to eat, and it will not be like Lai Shun'er and they go to eat the shrimp shell and fingers. However, her fingers are dexterous and her movements are sharp, and her speed is not much slower.

About 30 cm in size, two prawns per person. It was said that the portion was not small, but within a few minutes, only a pile of shrimp remained. Everyone looked at the empty plates, and they still felt unfinished.

"That's the real seafood." Shi Suo'er sighed and made a speech about the meal. It was the best shrimp he had ever tasted in his life.

"Don't keep staring at this, razor clams are also seafood, and the goods from our pool must be no different." Lai Shun'er Zhang Luo said, and at the same time took the lead in picking up a fried bamboo clams.

Everyone also knows that shrimp are very valuable, and there are not too many opportunities to enjoy them in the future. So he put down his mind and followed Lai Shun'er to eat bamboo clams.

As it turned out, this was a sequential error.

The stir-fried bamboo razor clams made by Lai Shun'er are actually very good, the meat of the razor clams is fatty and fresh, smooth and delicious, and the heat is just right. It is significantly more than a grade higher than the wild oysters that the islanders usually eat.

If eaten on its own, it is sure to be a wonderful treat. However, due to the fact that the pearl jade is in front, no matter how good the clam meat is, it cannot match the delicious taste of the top shrimp in any case. So in comparison, there is a lot of inferiority. From this, it is also important to see the combination and order of dishes at the same table.

Despite this, the whole housewarming dinner was still very happy, everyone drank and ate, hearty. In celebration of the housewarming, as a result, life on the island entered a new stage, but after the fun, it was found that all of them had overeaten, commonly known as holding on.

Jiang Yichen made an afterthought, and warned everyone earnestly that overeating is not a healthy eating habit, and it is easy to suffer from gastrointestinal diseases, high blood lipids, and high blood sugar, and we should pay attention to correcting it in the future.

Everyone agreed, but in their hearts, they secretly slandered, you weren't the same just now. (To be continued!)
