Chapter 158: Ice and Fire (Part I)
Ma Hao had never dealt with Mu Xueqi before, but he heard that these anchors were very appealing among young people, so he asked Du Changfeng to find an Internet celebrity anchor for him.
But just now, Mu Xueqi took his mobile phone and walked around beside him, and broadcast the whole process of making cold pot fish up close, even if it didn't reveal the secret recipe of cold pot fish, it still made him mind a little. However, people ask for it themselves, so it's not good to say much.
But now it's different, Mu Xueqi actually asked him directly about the secret of making cold pot fish, and he was a little unhappy.
Ma Hao glanced at Mu Xueqi, unwilling to answer positively, and deliberately said in a cold tone:
"I'm busy right now, and I'll talk about it when I win this cooking showdown."
Mu Xueqi didn't expect that she would hit a soft nail when she asked a question, and her expression was a little embarrassed.
In the live broadcast room, fans were upset for her.
"This Ma Hao is too arrogant, our goddess Mu asked him personally, he actually put on that face, he really wanted to beat him."
"Yes, this person is too shameless, and he hasn't finished the competition yet, so he said that he would win later. Just like this, he puts up flags indiscriminately, and there are not two episodes in ordinary cartoons. I'm betting he's going to be done too. ”
"Top Floor, +1"
“+2”
“+3”
.......
Although Mu Xueqi was also a little dissatisfied with Ma Hao's attitude, she was invited by Shuxianglou after all, and out of professional ethics, she still said something for Ma Hao:
"Don't be angry, I heard that the culinary industry cares a lot about protecting its intellectual property rights, maybe the question I just asked accidentally involved the secret of cold pot fish, so Chef Ma will be unhappy."
As soon as she sent out this sentence, suddenly an audience called "A kitchen knife does work" suddenly swiped a Buddha jumping over the wall worth 1,000 yuan.
Then "a kitchen knife does the job" sent a sentence ten times in a row:
"Ask Fang Yu the question of fish and meat, as long as he is willing to answer, I will brush ten more Buddhas to jump over the wall."
Mu Xueqi's room became lively all of a sudden, and all kinds of people who wanted to hug their thighs and make friends came to swipe the screen.
Mu Xueqi hesitated for a moment, first thanked "a kitchen knife to do work" for his support, and then euphemistically said that it should be impossible for Fang Yu to know Ma Hao's secret recipe.
Unexpectedly, there was another one called "Jincheng Wandai" who directly brushed ten Buddhas jumping over the wall, and also sent a sentence ten times:
"Go ask Fang Yu, as long as he is willing to answer, I will brush a hundred Buddhas to jump over the wall."
Mu Xueqi has nothing to hesitate about now, with these gift shares, it doesn't matter if she wants the commission of Shuxianglou.
Fang Yu was a little surprised when he saw Mu Xueqi coming straight to himself.
He was actually very curious about Mu Xueqi, and before the official start of the duel, he watched this girl holding a handheld gimbal with a mobile phone to pat east and west, and kept whispering to the mobile phone, doing all kinds of cute actions.
However, because he knew that she was invited by Shuxianglou, Fang Yu didn't want to communicate with her much just now. After the duel began, Fang Yu wanted to devote himself to the production of delicious food, and naturally stopped paying attention to her.
But he never expected that this tall beauty with a nice voice would take the initiative to come over during the duel.
Could this be a conspiracy of Shuxianglou?
Fang Yu couldn't help but look at Mu Xueqi, this is a tall girl, a puff sleeve dress with an off-the-shoulder neckline is super short, the lace hem is just up to the thigh, and with the same ultra-short denim hot pants, it seems that there are legs from the neck down.
"Oops." Fang Yu felt a pain in his waist, knowing that it was Wei Zhen who was dissatisfied with his cranky thinking and wanted to protest.
"Well, this must be a conspiracy of Shuxianglou." Fang Yu said to himself.
"That's right, they're trying to weaken your fighting spirit with a pair of good-looking, crazy pencil legs." Miso replied teasingly, "Attention, a pair of long legs are coming." ”
As she spoke, Mu Xueqi walked up to Fang Yu.
"Hello, Chef Fang, my name is Mu Xueqi and I am an online anchor."
"Uh, hello." Fang Yu nodded, saw Mu Xueqi's outstretched hand and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, it may not be convenient to shake hands now." ”
Mu Xueqi saw that Fang Yu's attitude was quite gentle, not as cold as when she was cooking just now, and she was also relieved.
"Chef Fang, can you say hello to my fans?" Mu Xueqi asked tentatively.
"Oh, yes, no problem. Hello everyone, I'm Fang Yu, and welcome everyone to visit me when you are free. ”
Fang Yu still knows a little bit about online live broadcasting, so he behaves naturally and generously, winning the favor of the audience in the live broadcast room.
"Hello Chef Fang."
"Chef Fang, I'll support you."
"Come on, Chef Fang, the old man pinched his fingers and counted, today you are blessed with a good star."
Mu Xueqi saw the support in the live broadcast room, and also laughed and joked:
"Chef Fang, I didn't expect you to be more popular than me. Why don't you also come to be an anchor, let's have a 'Muyu' combination? ”
"'Wooden fish' combination? Live chanting or live being knocked? I'm not good at that. Fang Yu knew that Mu Xueqi was joking, so he told a serious joke, which made Mu Xueqi laugh again and again.
Seeing that Fang Yu seemed to be very easy to speak, Mu Xueqi laughed for a while and went straight to the point.
"Chef Fang, I have a question about cooking, can I ask you?"
Fang Yu thought to herself, it really had a purpose, but there was nothing she couldn't see in her Qingfeng Rice, so she could ask whatever she wanted.
"Yes, you can say it." Fang Yu shrugged his shoulders and replied indifferently.
"I used to see chefs cook fish cooked to fresh. But Chef Ma's cold pot fish just now is made of fish taken out of the jar, is there anything special about this? Mu Xueqi said all the questions in one breath.
"Huh?" Fang Yu didn't expect Mu Xueqi to ask his question, which had nothing to do with Qingfeng rice, but about Ma Hao's cold pot fish.
"Chef Fang, don't get me wrong."
Mu Xueqi saw that Fang Yu listened to her question, her brows furrowed slightly, and she quickly explained:
"My question has nothing to do with this showdown, it's just that the audience in the live broadcast room is curious and wants me to ask. It's a pity that Chef Ma didn't seem willing to answer this question just now. ”
"Oh, that's right." Fang Yu's mind turned, and he felt that this question didn't seem to hinder him, so he said directly:
"It's okay, I can answer that question."
Fang Yu saw the staff gesturing to him to continue making the next batch of food, nodded slightly, and did as he spoke:
"I can probably guess why Ma Hao is reluctant to answer you. In fact, there is nothing special about what he did, it was just some common sense. However, because most people don't pay attention, it becomes a culinary secret over time. ”
"What is common sense? Can you give us a little bit of science? Mu Xueqi pointed the camera of her mobile phone at Fang Yu.
"Yes, didn't you just say that when chefs cook fish, they are all freshly killed, right?"
"yes, what's wrong with that?" Mu Xueqi asked curiously.
"Of course not, that's just to satisfy everyone's desire for freshness, and to save some trouble by the way. In fact, after the fish is killed, it is not suitable to cook immediately, it is best to wait a few hours before cooking. ”
Fang Yu's words surprised Mu Xueqi very much, and couldn't help but ask:
"No, after the fish is killed, it won't be fresh if it is left for a few hours."
"Don't worry, I have a basis for saying this."
Fang Yu glanced at the rows of questions in the live broadcast room, and said with a smile:
"Are there any student biographies in the live broadcast room?... It's good to have it.
You should know that after the average creature is slaughtered, although the breathing stops, there are still a series of biochemical and physical changes in the body, which are usually divided into three stages: stiffness, autolysis and spoilage.
When the fish dies, it is in a stiff stage, and although its life has ended, its energy metabolism is still going on, and its body temperature will even increase by a few degrees.
At this stage, small amounts of lactic acid and phosphoric acid are naturally produced in the fish, which are specifically designed to inhibit the reproduction and growth of spoilage microorganisms. Therefore, the fish meat at this time is weakly acidic, which is not only hard in quality, but also not conducive to human digestion and absorption. ”
Fang Yu quickly opened his bow left and right and sharpened two mangoes, and continued in his mouth:
"If you don't rush to eat it, leave the fish in a clean place for a few hours, and the fish will enter the autolysis stage.
At this time, the proteolytic enzymes in the fish meat will come into play, breaking down a part of the protein into peptides and various amino acids. A large part of the umami that we can feel in our sense of taste comes from amino acids, so the fish meat at this time will be more delicious, with a special umami and sweetness.
As for whether it is fresh or not, as long as the fish does not enter the stage of spoilage, it is theoretically not not fresh. ”
