During the Spring Festival, some people spend it in the joy of family and friends, some people spend it surrounded by Chinese food, and some people spend it in the roar of the dragon that slayers it.

Seven days of continuous broadcast of the tip of China, from the gift of nature to the story of staple food, the third day of the Lunar New Year, tonight's theme is "Inspiration for Transformation".

Tom Granger, a well-known food video producer on the overseas site of Chuyin Video Network, opened Chuyin Video Network on time at 12 o'clock at noon to watch the taste of China.

Tom is a native of the English Kingdom, and the dishes of the English Kingdom have always been called dark cuisine, and many of the videos uploaded by Tom on the overseas version of Hatsune Video Network are dark cuisine tastings and cooking, such as the most classic stargazing pie, haggis, eel jelly, etc., and from time to time there is also an unboxing video of canned herring, which is very popular with the audience.

He is very interested in Chinese food, not only those classic dishes such as roast duck and xiao long bao, but also strange foods such as snail noodles, stinky tofu, bean juice, preserved eggs, etc.

Tom once asked a friend who went to Huaxia to bring snail noodles and try them during the live broadcast, but the smell directly made him run to the toilet and vomit, and even vomited clean last night's supper.

But there is no way, I have to eat the snail noodles I cooked myself, and I have to eat them even if I pinch my nose.

Tom picked up the snail flour with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth like pasta.

In an instant, the fermented sour taste of sour bamboo shoots, chili oil, and capers all came into Tom's mouth, and all the flavors penetrated into the translucent vermicelli, which was like detonating a huge taste bomb in Tom's mouth.

Bang

The edifice of taste, which Tom had built for more than 20 years, collapsed in an instant.

Since it was live, Tom's distorted expression also affected the audience, making them empathize, and many people in front of the screen let out a wail.

But amazingly, after about thirty seconds, when Tom swallowed this snail noodle containing the soup and vermicelli, the first thing he blurted out turned out to be

"It's delicious."

Tom himself didn't quite believe his tongue, but after the disgusting taste at first, the word delicious really came to his mind.

The audience seemed surprised, and comments kept popping in, such as, "Do you believe an English guy says it's delicious?" He grew up eating starry sky pies", "and he wants to trick me into buying snail noodles, I won't be fooled", "This guy can eat a whole canned herring without changing his face, I don't believe even a word of him!" Such comments come and go.

Of course, the bowl of snail noodles was eaten by Tom in the end, and the fact that his kitchen was ventilated for a month is another story.

He finished watching the opening of Huaxia on the tip of his tongue and saw the subtitle of this episode, "Inspiration for Transformation".

Although the documentary is, it is also accompanied by English subtitles, and Tom watched it quite smoothly.

At the beginning of this episode, the tofu in the bamboo plaque is put on the rooftop, tofu is a unique ingredient in China, Tom's favorite food in Chinatown is mapo tofu, but now the tofu on the screen is obviously different from what he knows.

The shriveled, hard, black-brown skin, which looked like it was moldy, made Tom frown slightly.

Next, the documentary shows how this particular tofu is eaten.

On the grill of the charcoal brazier, this piece of small tofu is heated and expands like popcorn, and it is broken open and dipped in a little spice to send it to the mouth, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

At first, Tom was not very comfortable with this kind of food, and the fermented things always had some special flavors, such as sour bamboo shoots and canned herring, but watching the documentary people put it in their mouths one bite at a time, Tom suddenly wanted to eat it.

The next step is the process of making tofu, Tom has seen the information, but this is the first time I have seen such a detailed image, and it is hard to believe that the soybeans will become such white and tender gelatinous substance, and the taste will become delicate and soft, which is completely different from the original appearance.

Tom was stunned by the scene that followed, as a chef quickly cut a piece of tofu with a knife and cut it into a muddy shape, but when he coiled it up with a knife and put it into the water, he found that the tofu had turned into a very fine tofu shred, and it was basically not broken.

"It's amazing!"

Tom couldn't help but admire.

In Western cuisine, knife skills are also a part, and Western chefs are good at using a variety of knives to carry out the work, such as the classic ham slice.

However, the chef in Chinese food can complete the work that can only be completed with more than a dozen kitchen knives in Western food with just one kitchen knife, which is really amazing.

In addition to regular tofu, there are also milk tofu made from goat's milk, edamame tofu that grows white hair after fermentation, and Saisai dishes made with tofu and various vegetarian dishes, which are eye-opening for the noodle soup that has only eaten mapo tofu.

The next sauce duck, miso and sauerkraut are also Chinese delicacies that Tom can't touch on weekdays.

All of the food in this episode is made from ingredients that Tom can usually see in the market, but through a special transformation, it becomes a form that he has never seen before.

This kind of transformation method is quite similar to the molecular cuisine in some new Western restaurants, but it has been passed down for hundreds of years or even thousands of years.

In contrast, most of what Tom usually eats is the product of simple processing, which can be made in a microwave oven, which is too simple and barren.

"All of these imaginative transformations, the flavors and nutrients they create are breathtaking, and they form a part called culture that is passed on."

At this time, this episode is also at the end, and the narrator's words are eloquent, with the background music, there is a long charm.

After watching an episode, Tom couldn't get enough of it, and at the same time, some inspirations and thoughts suddenly occurred in his heart.

"I can buy all these materials, can I learn how to make tofu by myself?"

Soybeans and gypsum are all common materials, and Tom also knows some friends from Chinese restaurants in Chinatown, learn from them, and maybe make his own tofu.

This can also be used as material for a video, and I believe that Tom's fans will definitely be very interested in the tofu making after watching the Chinese on the tip of their tongues.

Thinking of this, Tom immediately packed his things, put on his clothes, and prepared to go shopping at the market.

Walking out the door, the winter in London was still bleak, but Tom jumped up and down like a child, and walked into the distance.
