Chapter Twenty-Five: Food Is Universal!
Hearing Xu Zhiwen's complaint, Shen Yinian and his agent turned their heads almost in unison and stared at Xu Zhiwen deadly.
Shen Yinian was faced, "Hold the grass, there are such brazen people in the world?" ”
The agent's expression was, "Are you handsome or not, don't you have a 13 count in your heart?" ”
Xu Zhiwen swore that his idea was correct, and his world suddenly opened up.
"Huh! I knew I was more handsome than him! Otherwise, why would he be jealous of me! ”
Xu Zhiwen ended the one-man performance perfectly, and then happily returned to Chen Er's side, waiting for the recording of the show to begin.
Chen Er rolled up the sleeves of his shirt.
"I said at the airport before that I was going to eat alpacas today, but the barbecue needs to be eaten freshly grilled, and it won't taste good when it's cold, so the barbecue should be made last."
"The first dish we're going to make today is an Argentine specialty, the Empanadas."
This Empanadas cake is a very interesting food.
Ampanadas is a very popular street food in Argentina, the equivalent of pancakes or pancakes in China.
The translated name of the Ampanadas bread is "bread wrapped". It means that the bread is wrapped in whatever you want to eat.
In Argentina, the ampanadas cake is packed with many different ingredients, such as chicken, cheese, sweet corn or other fruits and vegetables. Of course, the most popular filling for Argentines is beef.
The empanadas with minced beef will always be the mainstream in Argentina.
Chen Er took out all the ingredients needed to make Ampanadas cakes, and Xu Zhiwen on the side saw it and hurriedly followed to find the ingredients.
"The most indispensable ingredient in making Ampanadas bread is, of course, flour."
"There's also cinnamon, vanilla extract, yogurt, butter, a fresh lemon, and in addition to that, we need the filling wrapped inside."
Chen Er took out a piece of fresh beef and an onion.
The first thing to do to make the Ampanadas cake is the dough on the outside. Because the dough takes a little time for additional processing.
Chen Er poured the flour into a large glass bowl, then put in a piece of butter, and stirred the butter and flour well.
Butter is the result of stirring fresh milk and filtering out some of the water from a thick substance on the top. In Europe, butter is often used as a condiment or to replace some traditional animal oils and vegetable oils in cooking.
When the butter and flour are mixed well, the flour takes on a sticky state.
At this time, add yogurt, vanilla extract and cold water and stir into a dough.
Because the dough used to make the Empanadas is firm, cold water is used to stir the dough. The kneaded dough does not need to be fermented such as resting, you only need to wrap the dough in plastic wrap, put it in the refrigerator of the refrigerator, and freeze it for about 10 minutes to make the dough hard.
During this time when the dough is frozen, Chen Er is able to make the meat filling.
Chop the beef into a filling and add a small amount of pepper and paprika.
Chop the onion and stir together with the ground beef.
After finishing the meat filling, Chen Er took the time to look at Xu Zhiwen next to him, he could barely catch up with Chen Er's speed, his dough was also frozen in the refrigerator, but his table was in chaos.
All the ingredients were messed up and flour was spilled all over the place. And the most terrifying thing is the cruet bottle with cinnamon powder, and the cinnamon powder in the bottle is all gone.
Chen Er couldn't help but ask Xu Zhiwen, "How much cinnamon powder did you pour?" ”
The cinnamon taste is sweet, heavy and slightly astringent, slightly spicy and contains a refreshing aroma. It is often used as a flavor and food flavoring.
Chen Er couldn't imagine what it would taste like to have a bottle full of cinnamon powder poured into that ball of dough......
Xu Zhiwen shrugged his shoulders slightly unnaturally, and said stiffly, "I just want to see what the taste will be like if I put a little more cinnamon powder......
Hearing this, Chen Er was already sure that Xu Zhiwen must have accidentally spilled all the cinnamon powder into it.
So he smiled, "Okay, anyway, you must finish the food you make, you can't waste food, we have to set a good example for the audience." ”
Xu Zhiwen's expression stiffened, but he still nodded, "...... Definitely, I'm definitely going to finish it......"
Chen Er didn't speak, turned around and took out the dough from the refrigerator, and poked the dough through the plastic wrap.
"Well, yes, this dough is much harder than it was just now, and it is very suitable to use this dough for the Ampanadas cake at this time."
Chen Er removed the plastic wrap from the outside of the dough and divided the dough in two.
Using a rolling pin, roll out two small dough doughs into a dough about three centimeters thick.
"You need a mold to make the Ampanadas cake, and wait, I've made the Ampanadas cake with the mold, and you will definitely think that this cake looks very familiar."
Chen Er opened the mold, spread the dough into the mold, and then scooped up the stirred beef filling with a spoon and put it into the dough.
"You have to put a little more meat filling, so that a good Ampanadas cake will look swollen and beautiful."
Chen Er piled up the meat filling in the dough, then grabbed both sides of the mold, gently closed it, and easily wrapped the meat filling, and pressed a beautiful pattern on the edge of the two pieces of dough.
Chen Er pressed the mold in his hand twice harder, and only after feeling that the edges of the dough were completely stuck together and would not fall apart did he take out the Empanadas cake from the mold.
As soon as the Ampanadas cake was taken out of the mold, fans off the screen couldn't wait to start sending barrage.
"This cake looks like a dumpling!"
"Yes, yes! When Chen Laoshi took out the mold just now, I wanted to say, it really looks like the mold of dumplings! ”
"But this dumpling is a little too big......
"It's all said that Argentines call this a cake, and it will definitely look bigger than ordinary dumplings."
"Sure enough, the food is universal!"
"Upstairs wrong! My stinky tofu and hot pot in China are the only ones in the world! ”
Chen Er held the prepared Ampanadas cake in his hand and said, "That's right, this cake does look like a dumpling in our country, but visually, this is just a dumpling that has been magnified dozens of times. The taste and dumplings are completely different. ”
When the two Empanadas were ready, Chen took out a baking tray.
Brush the baking tray with a layer of butter and a layer of butter on top of the two Empanadas, and then you can put the Empanadas in the pan.
