Chapter 455 Yam Chicken Soup
Colonel Charles, do you have time now, I want to go to the restaurant to make you a stomach-regulating medicinal meal, it is not an exaggeration to say that eating this meal will at least allow you to worry about stomach problems in tomorrow's confrontation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Colonel Charles had tasted the medicinal juice made by Meng Chuan with food when he was fighting against pirates, and the effect was really good for a night, so he immediately agreed: "Okay, but I declare in advance, you don't make it too good, otherwise I won't eat it." ”
Meng Chuan has never understood why Colonel Charles has been so resistant to food, Meng Chuan really thinks that eating food and coveting comfort and comfort really have nothing to do with it.
People who work hard will work hard regardless of whether they eat food or not. People who don't work hard, even if they eat bad chaff every day, they don't work hard if they don't work hard.
"Colonel Charles, don't you think that eating good food can regulate your mood, and while satisfying your stomach, your brain will become much more excited."
Colonel Charles shrugged his shoulders, "I don't think so, I just think that people eat food to replenish energy, as long as they replenish enough energy, it is enough, eating well will only make the soldiers slack, you just imagine, if you are asked to eat big fish and meat every day, and suddenly one day you are asked to eat wild grass and wild vegetables, can you eat it?" ”
That's right, but eating tortillas every day is not necessarily good for your health, it has to be a nutritious diet, "Okay, Colonel Charles, let's not discuss this for now, let's go to the restaurant." ”
Meng Chuan and Chef Stanford are already very familiar, and after entering, they began to prepare the ingredients, Meng Chuan plans to make a yam chicken soup for Colonel Charles this time, the nutritional value of chicken soup is needless to say, it is known for replenishing deficiency, as for the ingredient of yam, it is a good dish, strengthening the spleen and stomach, helping digestion, and it can really be regarded as a dual-purpose ingredient for medicine and food.
Stanford saw that Meng Chuan was about to start making soup again, so he immediately started to start, "No. 44, what kind of soup are you going to cook this time, I see that the ingredients you prepare are different from the original." ”
Meng Chuan's original medicinal diet was to relieve mental fatigue and muscle soreness, which was different from this stomach-nourishing medicinal diet, so the ingredients used were naturally different, since Stanford started to start with himself, then he must also want to learn, he might as well teach him, after he learns, he can also do it for Colonel Charles later.
"Stanford, this soup is used to nourish the stomach, I made it specifically for Colonel Charles, you know, Colonel Charles's stomach has always been very poor, otherwise you will also learn to make more soup like this for Colonel Charles later."
When Stanford heard Meng Chuan's words, he sighed, "Come on, No. 44, you know that I and Colonel Charles have never dealt with each other, he even wanted to drive me away, it would be very good for me to give him tortillas to eat every day, and it is impossible for me to make soup for him." ”
"Hey, Chef Stanford, isn't the purpose of our cooks to make the diners eat well, don't be angry, you should cook for the other instructors, and give Colonel Charles a little food by the way."
Stanford and Colonel Charles do not deal with each other, but they have a very good relationship with other instructors, and every time they research a new delicacy, they will taste it for those instructors as soon as possible, and they have won unanimous praise from the instructors.
"Okay, anyway, there is no good stomach for being a soldier, so I should do it for the other instructors, and by the way, give that old Charles some to eat."
Colonel Charles did not sit in the dining room honestly at this time, but paced to the door of the back kitchen, when he heard Meng Chuan's words, Colonel Charles smiled and said secretly: "No. 44, I said that your caring character will kill you, and when I fight tomorrow, I promise to give you an unforgettable memory." But seriously, it's really comfortable to be cared for, no wonder so many students and instructors like this No. 44 so much. ”
Meng Chuan didn't have much time, so he immediately started cooking, yam, an ingredient that is not resistant to stewing, so it was put later, and Meng Chuan came to deal with the chicken first.
Just now, Stanford had already helped Meng Chuan cut the chicken into pieces, so Meng Chuan went directly to the pot and blanched it to remove the blood.
Blanching doesn't need to take too long, just a minute or two, and after blanching, start stir-frying.
Stir-fried food is not very common in Western food, especially American Western food, which is basically not fryed, so Stanford is very curious about this stir-fry.
Meng Chuan fried this chicken, not to make him taste it, the most important thing is to color the chicken, Meng Chuan did not use the most common rock sugar or white sugar to color this time, but prepared to use honey.
Honey is really a particularly good ingredient, not only good for the heart, but also effective for the liver and stomach, but it is a little difficult to color with honey, but Meng Chuan has his own good way.
Put the honey in the pot without oil first, heat it directly in the pot, then add about 3 times the water and bring to a boil.
After boiling, the blanched chicken can be stir-fried or stewed, and when the water is boiled dry, the honey will be tightly wrapped on the chicken, and the color will look very beautiful at this time, and this method is suitable for almost all meat, beef, mutton, pork, are universal.
Stanford saw Meng Chuan using this method to color the chicken, and secretly wrote down that next time he could make a honey chicken steak, or honey steak, for everyone to eat. After all, this honey-coated chicken can make people appetize just by looking at it, which is really good.
Then the rest of the method is simple, that is, boiling, Meng Chuan found a casserole, put in chicken, yam, ginger slices, and began to stew, the stewing time is better for a longer time, after all, the chicken soup, the longer it is stewed, the better the taste, and the richer the nutrition.
However, Colonel Charles didn't wait for Meng Chuan for so long, and Meng Chuan also knew, so he started stirring it directly after the soup boiled, so that the flavor could be integrated faster.
Stanford has a question hidden in his heart for a long time, "No. 44, every time you make soup, you will stir it, I see that your soup is not thick, there is no need to stir it all the time." ”
Meng Chuan couldn't say to Stanford that he wanted to make the nutrition of the ingredients more reflective, so he sloppily said, "Stanford, everyone's way of cooking is different, I personally prefer stirring, I think stirring can make the taste better, if you make this soup, there is actually no need to stir, just boil for a while." ”
Stanford nodded, "Then I won't stir, my cooking skills are not as good as yours, and I am worried that the ingredients will be stirred, and it will not be beautiful." ”
