Chapter 364: Wooden Fish Flower Rice Balls and Three-color Balls

Qian Chen's face couldn't help but stiffen, and finally nodded and agreed.

"Okay."

Finally coaxed Asuna not to be angry, and Qian Chen began to prepare meals for the two brothers who had just arrived.

He had just turned around, but he didn't notice the smug look on Asuna's face behind him, 'The plan had been solved'

The first dish Qian Chen started to make was wooden fish rice balls, which are famous as wooden fish flower rice balls.

Among them, bonito flakes are named after the dried bonito that is cut into fillets thinner than paper with a woodwork-like planer.

Basically, the dried fish that can be used to make bonito flakes are the type with hard flesh like bonito.

This kind of fish actually doesn't taste good, but after such processing, it turns waste into treasure.

The high-quality wooden fish flower is really thinner than paper, and it can fly directly by giving a little hot air flow under it.

Qian Chen first let the fine white rice cool.

This crystal-clear rice is not an ordinary rice, but a fantasy ingredient called crystal rice.

The reason for the name is that even after steaming, this kind of rice will remain as transparent as crystal, unlike ordinary rice that turns milky white after steaming.

In addition to its beautiful appearance, this steamed crystal rice is not only fragrant, but also has a sweet taste.

To paraphrase a sentence: this rice alone can eat three bowls of rice!

Of course, on the other hand, its heat is extremely difficult to master.

Even if it is steamed, the appearance of this rice does not change, so it is impossible to judge with the eyes.

Not to mention that it is not steamed for the time being, if it is oversteamed, this rice is like a real crystal overheated, and it will be directly shattered into powder, not only the fragrance is completely lost, but even the taste is only left with a toothy feeling like glass slag.

Fortunately, this is very simple for Qian Chen, who has the talent of 'temperature control'.

Sprinkle the crystal rice with black sesame seeds, stir it well, and then flatten it.

Next, top with meat floss, filamentous bonito flakes, and fried fried fritters.

Finally, the whole is kneaded into a triangle that is common in Japanese rice balls, pasted with a piece of seaweed, and finally sprinkled some bonito flakes on the top of the rice balls, and a few drops of prepared soy sauce are dropped, and a delicious and attractive piece of boniyu flakes is completed.

Qian Chen pinched six in succession and divided it into two parts, one was naturally for the diners, and as for the other one, without Qian Chen's reminder, Asuna directly picked up a piece and put it in her mouth to feast.

"Hmm!! Master's cooking skills are really getting better and better! Even the cricket rice balls are so delicious! ”

Asuna admired, brushing her hand over her shy cheek.

But soon, Asuna's face changed, and she shook her finger at Qian Chen.

"But, Master, this doesn't count in our agreement~~!"

Qian Chen couldn't smile bitterly.

He felt as if he had dug a hole for himself.

Fortunately, the development of new desserts is the development of new dishes, and he himself is eager to develop them, so it is not difficult for him.

After the rice balls were ready, Qian Chen was ready to start making three-color meatballs.

This order is very particular, and both rice balls and three-color meatballs were originally developed by Japanese chefs as bento boxes for travel, so they can withstand a long time without losing too much flavor.

On the other hand, scrambled eggs with tomatoes are scrambled with tomatoes, and once they are cooled, the sour taste of the tomatoes will bring out the fishy smell of the eggs, making the dish unpalatable.

So this seemingly simple Celestial Dynasty homely fried Qian Chen was directly placed at the end.

In fact, there is this dish in both Japan and the Celestial Empire, but the difference is that it is a dessert snack in Japan, while it is a formal main dish in the Celestial Empire.

The brothers were clearly ordering Japanese desserts rather than Chinese dishes.

Glutinous rice flour, milk, matcha powder, red dragon fruit, granulated peanut butter, bean paste, chocolate sauce, crushed nuts, white sugar, room temperature water, ice water.

After Qian Chen prepared these ingredients, he began to make three-color meatballs.

Sanseki Maruko, known as Mitarai Maruko, is a very old Japanese-style folk snack that can still be seen everywhere in modern shops.

However, in ancient times, limited by factors such as ingredients and kitchenware, the workmanship of meatballs was not complicated.

As for what Qian Chen is going to do, it looks like the Mitarai balls after his own magic reform, after all, it is impossible for Japan to have such a thing as chocolate sauce in ancient times, and as for the tropical fruit of red heart dragon fruit, it is even more difficult to think about in ancient times when shipping was not developed.

The reason why Qian Chen used red heart dragon fruit is because the juice of red heart dragon fruit is also a natural purple red dye, which is pollution-free and non-toxic, and can also detoxify and nourish the skin.

Qian Chen directly squeezed the red heart dragon fruit to get a little purple-red juice.

The milk of the cow cream is then divided into three parts, two of which are added with matcha powder and the juice of red heart dragon fruit, and then stirred to obtain white, red and green milk.

Then add the three colors of milk to the glutinous rice flour and mix well to knead it into a dough.

Divide the three-color dough into small balls the size of rice balls.

According to the way of making glutinous rice balls, the granulated peanut butter, bean paste, and chocolate sauce are wrapped into the dough as a filling.

Boil a pot of hot water, then put the three-color rice balls, cough cough, and three-color balls into it, and when the balls float, they are immediately scooped up, and then thrown into the ice water.

The purpose of this is, of course, to solidify the soup and meatballs, and at the same time to make the skin of the meatballs more resilient and elastic.

To be honest, until he did this step, Qian Chen felt the difference between meatballs and glutinous rice balls.

Before that, it was basically making glutinous rice balls.

And Qian Chen thinks that Mitarai balls are only three-colored?

Imagination is so barren!

And there is no mention of artificial edible dyes.

Spinach, carrots, pomegranate juice, purple potatoes, tomatoes, watermelon, strawberries, mangoes

As long as the fruit is compatible with milk, it can basically be made into the skin of the balls.

As for the invagination, it is even more abundant, in addition to the common sweet invagination, you can add salty invagination such as meat floss appropriately.

Multiply the two by two, so calculated, I am afraid that there are more than 100 types of balls.

"Make the balls smaller and the variety more you want to call them rainbow balls!" ’

While thinking, Qian Chen crushed the nuts, put the balls on the wooden chisel, then sprinkled with crushed nuts, and then drizzled with a special brown sugar juice.

A poor man's version of the 'rainbow ball' is done.

'Wait, something feels wrong, I'm not making three-color balls!? ’

Unexpectedly, the chef was sick again at the critical moment, and Qian Chen couldn't help but cover his face.

Then when he took his hand away from his eyes, there was only one lonely string left of the three strings of balls.

“???”

Several question marks suddenly popped up on Qian Chen's head.

But soon he found out about the 'murderer'.

I saw a Qianqianyu hand stretched out from the side, with elegant movements, and took the last string of balls as fast as lightning.
