Chapter Twenty-Five: Gardenia Radish
When I was a child, the conditions at home were not very good.
Her parents go out every day to set up a braised meat stall, and they are often too busy to take care of her.
So she has been cooking for herself since she was a teenager.
The spicy stir-fried radish tassels are also made unintentionally. When her parents went out that day, they told her that there were still two radishes at home, and asked her to wait for her to eat them cold.
At noon, Yin Xiaoyue found that those radishes had been rotten at all.
When the food is gone, you can only eat rice.
Yin Xiaoyue looked at the strong radish tassels, and suddenly thought about how it tasted.
Later, she fell in love with bibimbap with turnip tassels and was out of control......
Seeing that this bibimbap was recognized by Zeng Hongxia, Yin Xiaoyue was in a good mood.
She looked at her four teammates, except for Zeng Hongxia, who was standing in front of her, everyone was busy.
"What did you cook, let me see it too?"
Zeng Hongxia smiled and turned around: "I'm busy, the dishes I cooked, it's delicious, I'll let you see enough and eat enough!" ”
Looking at the way she turned around, Yin Xiaoyue felt quite funny.
In this kind of competition, everyone is a competitor, and everyone around you is eyeing you.
Naturally, Yin Xiaoyue couldn't stay out of it.
This Zeng Hongxia, as for people, is a little noisy, and whatever is in her heart is floating on the surface. Her purpose, what she wants, everyone can see, this kind of person, although she also has a heart, but she will not be bad.
Compared with the happiness of Wang Xingfu in her room, she made people feel more relaxed.
Thinking of this, Yin Xiaoyue was a little worried about Xiao Xiaomei.
Xiao Xiaomei is a person, Yin Xiaoyue still knows a lot about her personality, she has been in Osmanthus Old Street for a long time, this child is straightforward and fast-talking, and he doesn't think much about what he wants to say.
In case of the king's happiness, if he is sold, he will probably have to help the other party count the money and play.
Yin Xiaoyue looked around.
This time Xiao Xiaomei also came to participate in the competition, Yin Xiaoyue was actually very happy, this is equivalent to double insurance, in case she fails, Xiao Xiaomei can still go up.
The group where Wang Xingfu and Xiaomei are located is separated by more than ten meters from Yin Xiaoyue's side.
I saw that there was another group of people across the room, everyone was busy, and the specific situation was not very well understood.
Wang Xingfu's desire to win is very strong.
Everyone is not alone, and even if they are going to oppose each other, it is a little early now.
In a group of five, everyone loses everything, Wang Xingfu will not be so stupid.
After Yin Xiaoyue thought of this layer, she buried her head and cooked another dish.
She is going to have another steamed vermicelli with garlic and radish.
Yin Xiaoyue accidentally ate steamed scallops with garlic once, and there were some vermicelli on them.
She never forgot that taste.
Later, she steamed sea bass, white shrimp, white mushrooms, and loofah with garlic vermicelli...... Gradually, Yin Xiaoyue discovered that garlic vermicelli can steam everything!
Since everything can be steamed, there is no problem with turnips.
To prevent lumps, the vermicelli is first coated in a layer of oil, and then the radish is cut into small cubes and placed on a plate upright.
The vermicelli is soaked in cold water, and it will not be too soft when steamed. When the garlic is three layers hot, fry it in the pan, put a little salt and oil consumption. Mix with a layer of raw garlic and a little chopped millet chili pepper to make it the most delicious garlic sauce.
The golden sauce is poured over the radish cubes, and the color is immediately rich.
The water was boiled and steamed for five minutes, sprinkled with a handful of crisp green onions, and a scoop of boiling oil was poured down.
Yin Xiaoyue also put the second dish she had finished on the desk in the middle. In addition to the radish tassel bibimbap she made before, there are several dishes on it:
"Braised vegetarian lion head", "radish egg burri", "sour and hot radish slices", and Chen Yufei just served "vegetarian roasted radish".
The stewed radish is orange-red throughout.
Dip it in a special sweet and spicy sauce and it is very delicious.
Yin Xiaoyue exclaimed: "This color is so beautiful, did you add gardenias?" ”
Chen Yufei was stunned: "How do you know?" ”
Blinking, Yin Xiaoyue said, "I guess, do you believe it?" ”
“…… Unbelief. ”
More than ten years ago.
The braised meat made by Yin Weimin is better than the color of other houses in Luochuan County.
For a while, there were rumors that Yin Weimin was a black-hearted businessman, and the color of his braised meat was so beautiful and red because Sudan red was added to it.
At that time, as soon as the news spread, the business of "coarse tea and light rice" plummeted.
Li Aizhen was so anxious that she turned around, but Yin Weimin was very calm.
One day at noon, it was the meal, and it was also the time when there were the most people on the old street, Yin Weimin set up a big pot in the middle of the road, and in the pot was some pork belly and beef.
The soup is fragrant, but it doesn't look colorful.
When Yin Weimin poured the hot braised soup into it and boiled it, he suddenly grabbed a spice out of his pocket.
The spice was pointed at the ends and rounded in the middle, like a sun-dried olive, but dark brown in color.
In front of everyone, he threw the thing into the pot of braised soup.
Within a few minutes, all the meat in the pot changed color, and it was still so red and bright.
That spice is gardenia.
Gardenia will emit a large amount of edible red pigment when heated, which is why the color of Yin Weimin's braised soup is so red and bright.
The rumors have been broken, and the "coarse tea and light rice" business is the same as before.
It's just that the secret of Yin Weimin's braised soup was spread, and later in Luochuan County, all the braised meat stalls became surprisingly good.
Li Aizhen felt that the secret was leaked, and she was unwilling.
Yin Weimin still doesn't care.
He always said that you don't need to care too much, there will be gains and losses.
Next, the business in the store is getting better and better, and the diners come to eat, all of them believe in Yin Weimin's personality, use materials and conscience, and eat with absolute confidence.
Therefore, at this moment, when Yin Xiaoyue looked at the color of the radish, she knew that this flavor must have been added.
Seeing that Yin Xiaoyue was right, Chen Yufei nodded:
He asked how it tasted.
Yin Xiaoyue said: "The sauce is very good, sweet and spicy, there should be no one who doesn't like this taste." ”
Chen Yufei said thank you.
He looked at the steamed radish with vermicelli, and his face suddenly changed. Yin Xiaoyue asked him what was wrong, and Chen Yufei said: "My steamed radish seems to be the same as your dish." ”
The second dish made by Chen Yufei was steamed radish with chicken sauce.
Southern cook, good at knife work.
The radish was cut by him as thin as a cicada's wing, neatly diagonally on a plate, head to tail, and looked like a white doughnut.
After pouring the chicken juice, steam in the pot for two or three minutes.
After stuffing the chopped green onions, the whole dish is alive.
The taste of chicken juice is very similar to the garlic sauce made by Yin Xiaoyue in terms of taste.
The main course is turnips, which are also steamed.
These two dishes have become the same style.
Now that the radish has been sliced, the next step is to pour chicken juice into the steamer.
Yin Xiaoyue stepped forward and looked at the cut radish.
Twisted up a piece and looked at it, as thin as cicada wings.
Sure enough, he is a chef born in a professional class, and Chen Yufei's knife work is really good.
Seeing that Chen Yufei was a little lost, Yin Xiaoyue glanced at the time, and now it was nearly an hour before twelve o'clock, so she said:
"Don't panic, let's deal with it again."
