Chapter 15: Clam Noodles

After the steamed cakes were loaded, Chen Er rang the doorbell and called Shen Yinian.

Then move on to making clam noodles.

The soup in the pot boiled quickly.

As soon as the lid of the pot was lifted, a thick ginger fragrance wafted out.

After boiling the ginger in water, it reduces the choking smell and becomes a lot milder.

As soon as the heat came up, the smell of ginger kept drilling into the nose.

Gentle with a little bit of domineering.

It's a gentleness that can't be refused.

Chen Er poured the prepared clams into the pot and put the lid back on.

"There must be no only clams and noodles in the clam noodles, otherwise it will be too monotonous."

"We can prepare some other ingredients to decorate it."

Clams are meat, so Chen Er plans to go in with some vegetables.

"The cabbage is crispy and fresh, and it is a good choice to pair with clam noodles."

Chen Er chose two very beautiful little cabbages.

In his hand, he is as handsome as a small tree that has just grown, standing tall with branches and leaves, and his whole body is refreshing.

Chen Er peeled off the leaves of the cabbage one by one, shook the leaves gently, and even threw off a lot of dew.

You can see how fresh these cabbages are.

After the cabbage is washed, put it on a plate and set aside.

After choosing the side dishes, the next step is the toppings for the clam noodles.

Chen Er took out a small handful of green onions.

Remove the shallots and chop the green and snow green onions neatly.

"The cabbage is too tender, and you can't put it directly into the pot to cook when you cook the noodles."

"The temperature of the water in the pot is too high, and if you are not careful, the cabbage will be boiled old, and the crisp taste will be lost, and the flavor of the cabbage will be reduced."

"Therefore, you generally choose to use a large colander to blanch the cabbage, and then put it in the bowl of good noodles."

At this time, the water in the pot boils again.

Chen Er lifted the lid of the pot.

A smell of seafood wafted out.

The clams are already cooked and have a lovely aroma.

Such a delicious aroma immediately reminded Chen Er of the jellyfish he had made before.

But the aroma of clams is significantly better than that of jellyfish.

Jellyfish don't have any flavor on their own, but clams are different.

Clams have a much more complex body structure than jellyfish, and clams themselves have firm flesh and many components, and they are shellfish food.

The meat itself is more tender than ordinary aquatic products.

Living in shallow water, walking rocks and swallowing sand, resulting in a very strong marine smell on the clams.

But there is no fishy smell and sandy smell of shellfish.

On the contrary, there is a very pure smell of meat.

Chen Er couldn't help but say, "No wonder JS folk still have the saying that "after eating clam meat, all flavors fail". I haven't eaten it yet, but I smell it and it tastes delicious. ”

Cooked clams will automatically open the scallops, revealing the snow-white and tender flesh.

It's very tempting to look at.

Chen Er put the noodles in the pot and stirred gently with chopsticks to prevent the noodles from sticking to a ball.

After putting in the noodles, Chen Er left the lid uncovered.

"While we wait for the noodles to cook, we can make a seasoned miso soup."

Chen Er walked to the cabinet where the condiments were placed and took out an earthen jar.

The size of an adult man's hand.

"It's time to sacrifice the noodle cooking artifact!"

"Guess what?"

Fans have mixed opinions.

"It has to be a national goddess...... Old godmother! ”

"Oily and spicy!"

"Peanut butter!!"

"From the outside, it must be wine!"

"According to the rules of Chen Laoshi's unconventional path, I guess it's the sauce that didn't run out of the last meal!"

Chen Er stretched out the jar in his hand.

The logo posted in front of the altar was magnified in front of countless fans.

"SX Old Aged Vinegar!"

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Chen Er ripped off the gag of the jar.

He leaned closer to the jar and sniffed the scent, and then his eyes lit up.

"Sour enough! Delicious! ”

Chen Er scooped a small spoonful of vinegar out.

"Life without vinegar is not perfect, you eat noodles without vinegar?"

Many fans posted a barrage saying that they would add a little, but they never expected that Chen Er would call vinegar an artifact for cooking noodles.

Chen Er poured the small spoonful of vinegar into the large ceramic bowl where the noodles were served.

"Personally, I think that adding vinegar to the noodle soup can increase the smooth taste of the noodles, and it can also make the noodles taste more refreshing and increase the refreshing feeling of the noodles."

"If the ingredients or seasonings of the noodles are strong, adding some vinegar will work better!"

As he spoke, he put some salt in it.

"The taste of the clams themselves is delicious enough, so the seasoning of the noodle soup must be light, the salt and vinegar should be less, and the flavor can be added slightly, and you can't blindly pursue heavy taste, otherwise, the umami of the clams will not be enough."

After Chen Er finished speaking, he picked up his chopsticks and went to the pot to stir the noodles.

"The noodle aroma has been completely cooked, and this pot of clam noodles can be cooked."

Then scoop a large spoonful of noodle broth into the noodle bowl.

The soup from the clams and noodles has a light white color, which is very textured and a little translucent.

Because the heat was well grasped and the noodles were cooked carefully, there were no floating objects in the pot.

The noodle soup was clean, and the vinegar and salt in the noodle bowl were diluted at once.

The noodle soup also turns a faint sauce red.

Chen Er picked up the big colander hanging on the side and fished out all the noodles.

Place in a noodle bowl.

Then quickly take out all the clams and spread them on the noodles.

Then put the washed cabbage in a large colander and stretch it into the pot that is still boiling.

The big colander echoed in the hot noodle soup a few times, and the color of the cabbage immediately changed from bright green to deep green, and because it was covered with water droplets, it looked oily green, like a small tree that had just experienced a light afternoon rain.

Chen Er also put the blanched cabbage into the noodle bowl.

Garnish with chopped green onions.

"One last step."

Chen Er came to the stove that was still burning, removed the soup pot for cooking noodles, and replaced it with an iron pot.

Turn the heat to the highest, take out a bottle of rapeseed oil, and pour it into the iron pot that has been burned hot.

The rapeseed oil immediately gave off an oily aroma, followed by wisps of smoke.

Chen Er picked up the iron pot, walked to the edge of the table, tilted the iron pot slightly, and poured the bright hot oil evenly into the noodle bowl.

The noodle bowl suddenly made a "zizi" sound.

The delicate green onion is poured with hot oil, and it becomes ripe immediately, exuding a strong green onion fragrance, mixed with a very warm rapeseed oil aroma, and a delicious food aroma comes out.

Chen Er put down the iron pot and said with a smile, "This is the anchor's favorite link, it's so cool to listen to this Zizi voice!" ”

"It's like going back to when I was a child, when my family was stir-frying vegetables on the stove, the condiments such as green onions, ginger and garlic were stir-fried in hot oil, which was a very wonderful taste."

"The oil pot is fragrant, the aroma is hot and strong, drill into the nose hard, you suck a few mouthfuls desperately, before you have time to taste the product, the vegetable basket in the hands of the adults is poured into the pot, and the fresh vegetables immediately cover the oil fragrance."

"What you can't get is always in turmoil, and the shorter it is, the more beautiful it feels."

Chen Er rubbed his hands.

"This clam noodle dish is ready!"

The cyan ceramic bowl contains snow-white noodles, a faint sauce-red soup, and green cabbage, white and tender clams, and green green onions.

At first glance, it looks like a spring scene.
