Chapter 83: All the puzzles are complete
To be reasonable, can a bun that replaces a dough bun with vegetable leaves still be considered a bun? It's more appropriate to say it's not so much a bun as a vegetable bun...... Of course, it is impossible to grasp it with your hands, you can only use chopsticks to clip it.
The whole bun, which is probably made up of four or five Chinese cabbage leaves, is obviously blanched in advance and dried in a controlled manner. After that, the minced meat is added and steamed. In order to avoid falling apart, it is estimated that it will also be wrapped in gauze.
When I clamped it, I found that these leaves were chimeled together, and the shape was quite stable. Hold it firmly with chopsticks, and then bite into it, and the taste is of course not the fluffiness of flour, but the sweetness of vegetables.
The leaves are full of water, not only from the water vapor, but also from the soup with the meat filling.
When you bite into it, your mouth is full of soup, and you subconsciously suck it up, like a soup dumpling, the sweetness of the green vegetables has the aroma of beef, and it is sweet and you don't feel tired at the same time.
Seriously, the banquet has come to an end, and if it continues to be greasy, it is estimated that it will really not be able to withstand it.
The soup was almost sucked up, and then I took a bite into it, first the crispy green vegetables, and then something suddenly melted in my mouth, and it was actually vermicelli, and it was a vermicelli full of beef broth.
After that, the meat filling, which has a very soft texture and does not have that greasy feeling. This meat is almost all lean, but it is very soft, and it does not feel very woody.
"Very wonderful taste!" Lu Kang must admit at this moment that this may not be a bun in the traditional sense, but it is indeed a very good beef bun.
In fact, Zhu Xin felt that there was no need to be so strict. Let's just say that the moon cakes of later generations have the greasy taste of traditional crust, and what puff pastry, pie crust, crystals and ice cream are all made. Fortunately, the puff pastry has been completely separated from the concept of 'crisp', and it is embarrassing to be able to use the name 'moon cake'.
Since everything that is seriously detached from the essence of moon cakes can be called moon cakes. So for Zhu Xin, the beef buns with cabbage skin are of course also buns!
The leaves fit each other, so even if you take a bite of them with chopsticks, they won't fall apart. In the end, it absorbs enough moisture and the leaves fit well on the filling, which is also a reason.
Isn't the soup dumpling a lot of soup with thin skin? Now let's use the leaves as the crust, so it's thinner, right? At the same time, after the double absorption of vermicelli and vegetable leaves, the soup is almost not wasted, and it is completely absorbed.
You don't need to use a straw to suck it out first, and when you bite into it, it will seep out of the leaves and vermicelli, and you can eat and drink it at the same time, which is a taste that ordinary soup dumplings do not have. The gravy will also keep the filling and crust from drying out, and it will be moisturized and moisturized to chew.
As for the inspiration for this bun, it's the Reveal Age collection. In the once popular Korean drama "Da Jang Jin", the protagonist Chang Jin in it, when he was taking the exam, he wanted to make steamed buns (I later learned that it should actually be dumplings), and the flour allocated to her was stolen by the little palace maid who followed her, and she could only use cabbage leaves as the outer skin.
What Zhu Xin did was an improved variety on that basis. Not only did I add fans, but I also added minced tofu. Tofu not only absorbs the same soup, but also smooths the texture and eliminates the greasy taste of the meat.
It takes about an hour for the beef to be marinated, but the skill of 'kitchen control' is so powerful.
Another thing that everyone didn't actually notice was that it had been more than two hours since the banquet began.
Eating, drinking, chatting, no one noticed that time had passed so much unconsciously.
With more than ten years of cooking experience, Zhu Xin's years have not been in vain. If you want to talk about the control of the kitchen, it is real, and the skills are only auxiliary at most. Two hours, four hours, and skills to shorten the waiting time, forced the guests to eat from the beginning to the end, and even took into account the situation of their chatting while eating.
The amount of meat in the bun is not a lot, and generally speaking, one or two bites cannot be eaten. After tasting slowly, it will take at least five or six sips to finish the taste. Of course, it's okay if you have to take a sip, after all, it's someone else's right to taste it.
"This is probably the strangest bun I've ever eaten in my life...... Huang Gai sighed after taking a bite, chewing it carefully and tasting it carefully.
"But it's a relatively novel experience, in fact, excluding the skin of the leaves, it's really a very good soup dumpling." Cheng Pu smiled, "Remember? At the beginning, Yuan Shu invited us to taste the soup dumplings......"
"It's the stuff that needs to be sucked out of the soup before you can eat it. Seriously, it's enough to eat a bun and it's enough to be so troublesome, in contrast, after deducting the skin, it's more comfortable to eat. Huang Gai complained.
Then Sven's eating method is very unsuitable for a pure military general like her. Like now, one bite at a time, the simple and crude way of eating is more interesting.
"Brother, have you seen it, Baozi still has such a practice!" Big Joe has already started to get excited, and as a chef who loves to cook, it seems that he has witnessed the emergence of a new world.
"Got it, there's no need to make a fuss...... "Xiao Qiao muttered, but this so-called bun is indeed subversive of cognitive level. It actually reminded him of being in the kitchen with his sister when he was a child, doing all kinds of cooking things as he wanted.
Obviously, at that time, I was the one who was most interested in cooking......
I can't help it! I don't have that talent at all, and my sister has surpassed him in cooking before he knows it, and she keeps throwing herself behind. Why is he a fireman and my sister a chef?
"Eat...... It's full......" Sun Ce put down his chopsticks, and at this moment the steamer in front of her was empty. It's amazing, I was obviously a little hungry before, but now I realize that I have eaten enough.
Should it be said that this bun has just reached the boundary line of fullness? Like, that's not the case......
"But really, why do you feel full just after eating the buns?" Sun Ce's principle is to ask if you don't know, especially if the chef is still his fiancé.
"That's because there's a time delay in the feedback of the sensations in your stomach to the brain." Zhu Xin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then explained simply, "It is generally recommended to eat eight points full, that is, when you feel eight points full, in fact, you are already full at this time, but you just feel full, and you haven't had time to feedback it yet......
"In other words, when I ate the jelly, I was already full?" Sun Ce suddenly understood.
"So later, you might feel a little bit bit, but it won't last long." Zhu Xin smiled, "After all, I have added so many spices from beginning to end, and I am about to play a role!" ”
"Truthful...... It's not that the skill needs to rest for three or five days before it can be used......" Sun Ce had some bad feelings.
"Because it takes three to five days to adjust your mentality...... In general, yes. The corners of Zhu Xin's mouth lifted slightly.
"Could it be...... Worst! Lu Fan and Zhou Yu's faces suddenly changed, and a strong feeling had surged out from the depths of their hearts.
