Chapter 18 Dongpo Meat
Su Dongpo's method of cooking meat can be seen in his "Song of Stew": "Slow fire, less water, firewood can't smoke, don't urge it when it's ripe, and it's beautiful when the fire is enough." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
This is a simple way to make Dongpo meat, and Su Shi commented in "Qiu Chi Notes": "Yellow pigs are as cheap as soil, the rich refuse to eat them, and the poor do not understand how to cook." ”
Perhaps the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, was a pig, and then the emperors of the previous dynasties expressed respect for the first emperor, so they did not eat pork, and the mutton in the palace was recognized as a valuable delicacy at that time, where the wind was, so the cheap pork made the rich and noble families look down on it at that time.
Shunzi had a bitter face, and when he heard Zhao Tianqi say that to make that Dongpo meat, he needed to use pork, so he said to him with some reluctance: "Brother Qi, it doesn't matter if we eat this pork by ourselves on weekdays, the guests here are all noble, how can we take these things to deal with them at will?" “
Zhao Tianqi pouted, you don't know the deliciousness of pork, what Dongpo meat, plum cabbage button meat, sweet and sour pork ribs, you haven't eaten it, picked up a piece of processed pork from the board, smelled the taste, and felt that it was quite fresh, so he boiled it in hot water to make the meat tight and easier to cut.
"Let me tell you, to make this dish, you must first choose the best pork belly, the five flowers are clearly divided into three layers, and the fat and lean meat are the same, which is the best. Cut the pork belly into equal rectangular pieces, put water in the casserole that can cover the pork belly, and put the sliced pork belly in a pot under cold water. ”
"Take out the pork belly after the flying water, pour out the water, and in the casserole, spread the green onion and ginger, and put the bottom. Then arrange the pork belly neatly on top, add a little frosting, soy sauce. ”
"Finally, pour the rice wine into it, and the height of the wine is to submerge the meat." Zhao Tianqi shook the Shao wine in his hand and said to Shunzi.
Shunzi curiously took the bottle containing Shao wine, tilted his head into his mouth, smacked his mouth, and asked suspiciously: "Brother Qi, the taste of your rice wine seems to be different from the wine in the restaurant." ”
Zhao Tianqi didn't answer, but just focused on deflating the Dongpo meat, and then covered the pot.
"Hey, I said Brother Qi, you've been here for almost two hours, can this meat really be so delicious?"
"You Shunzi, no matter what you do, you have to go with the boss, what the boss says and does, you just have to do it, you don't need other words, otherwise how to get the leader's appreciation? Also, are you the shopkeeper and am I the shopkeeper? Do I have to ask if I cook, it's definitely a first-class delicious! Saying that, Zhao Tianqi made a move to hit Shunzi's head.
Junzi thought about why the purple smoke girl was so blindsided and let such a domineering guy be the shopkeeper, and regretted that he had gotten on the thief ship, but he still smiled politely: "Cheng Chengcheng, listen to you." ”
"I've been busy for a long time, don't mess up later, remember these pots of Dongpo meat, each plate is divided into three pieces, one can not be more and one is not less, and then, put the green vegetables in a better place, make a plating, and ah, this base must not fall on the plate, can not let others see the doorway, especially on the rice wine, you have to put it for me, the people who have come to the restaurant recently are very mixed, let's not do that loss-making business." Zhao Tianqi stared at these pots meaningfully, as if they were real money.
Shunzi looked at Zhao Tianqi's eyes, and his heart fluttered, he seemed to know that the cyclamen restaurant was terminally ill, and there were often idle people who came to ask questions, stuffed some broken silver, and pulled shoulders and backs.
Shunzi thought about it like this, and felt more and more unreliable, and he didn't know if the decision he made on impulse was true, so he could only sigh secretly: "Brother Qi, the happiness of the second half of my life will be handed over to you." ”
Zhao Tianqi ignored Junzi's expression, shook off the water in his hand, pulled a towel at random, and walked straight to the hall.
Looking at the scattered few people, I thought to myself that although I was not a rich man, I was also full of Song Ci and related knowledge of the Song Dynasty.
I just don't know, how much of a role these inks can play in this era, writing a book is just the first step, cooking or something, after all, it's not the right way, since you can't lose a bet, you have to have a good future, you have to have good innovation, some start with the dishes of the cyclamen restaurant, after all, people from the future, eat so many delicious food, even if you don't know the recipe, you can also grope for a home-cooked meal and a few hard dishes on the table.
As long as I can make this cyclamen prosperous, I haven't gone to school for so many years, but then again, I still go to school or get schooled, and it doesn't seem that the time I spent as a student was voluntary.
Phew, baba, I think far ahead, first make the cyclamen brilliant, get the top position of the leaderboard, and let the Purple Smoke girl face me up to me, such a beautiful and moving girl...... Right!
Thinking of the weak body and beautiful appearance of the purple smoke girl, Zhao Tianqi smiled and walked into the hall.
Because yesterday's storytelling effect is good, aroused the enthusiastic response of the masses, today's hall, although there are still so few people, but it is much better than yesterday, of course, this is from the point of starting to tell the story, there is still a period of time, although most of the listeners are tired of eating these good cooked food, but in order to pass the time, they can't help but order a few dishes that can still be swallowed, and drink a few sips of light and tasteless wine.
Zhao Tianqi glanced at it and found that all the people who came were some civilian children, and those important people had not yet visited, but Zhao Tianqi's eyes saw some eyebrows, and he subconsciously hooked the corners of his mouth, there was a situation.
Although there were a few diners talking and laughing there, their eyes were always looking out of the door, not like they were here to eat, but like they were coming to squat, Zhao Tianqi thought about it, and felt that they should be the subordinates of some big man's mansion, or the eyeliner sent by another restaurant.
Zhao Tianqi touched his nose and laughed slyly, it seems that it will be very lively tonight.
But since you are coming, I, Zhao Tianqi, will definitely give you a big surprise, not only for the bet with the Purple Smoke Girl, but also for my own future, this battle will be fought extremely beautifully.
At this moment, Zhao Tianqi has already said that in Bianjing City, all restaurants are regarded as imaginary enemies, he is like this, as soon as he gets serious, ten cows can't be dragged back, just like he loves to write novels, he wrote 13 books in a row and didn't look back, that kind of passionate years, he still remembers it in his heart.
"This is the official declaration of war, and as soon as this Dongpo meat comes out, I think that sixty or seventy percent of the diners in the huge Bianjing City will come to this cyclamen restaurant to find out, and at that time, new dishes and new services will be launched one after another, which will definitely make people's eyes shine."
Zhao Tianqi tidied up his clothes, touched his cheeks narcissistically, and walked to his desk in a literati manner.
