Chapter Seventy-Nine: Tofu Feast (3)
There is nothing to say about home-cooked tofu here, and Zhao Youqian finally began to prepare the last one, which is also a rather dark looking tofu dish.
One of the creative dishes originating from Sichuan provincial cuisine, 'Brain Flower Roasted Tofu'!
You must know that since he ate this dish in Sichuan Province, Zhao Youqian has included it as one of his personal favorites, even the original mapo tofu of this dish cannot compare to the status of brain flower roasted tofu in Zhao Youqian's heart.
Of course, it can't be regarded as a recipe that exceeds the general mapo tofu and has the sixth flavor of the gods.
You must know that the subtlety of the brain flower roasted tofu lies in the smell of the brain flower and the tofu, two ingredients with similar tastes, are cut in the mouth at the same time.
Rich and fragrant, but not rushing to the brain.
After the spicy taste, all that remains is the richness of the brain flower similar to bone marrow and the fragrant taste of tofu.
But people who see this dish for the first time will definitely turn away.
For example, Zhao Huanjin saw Zhao Youqian sprinkle salt on the home-cooked tofu and collect the juice from the pot, and brought out the brain flower that was still soaking, so he showed a grateful expression.
The taste of the liquor takes away the only remaining fishy smell of the processed brain flower.
Zhao Youqian fished out all those fair-skinned brain flowers and put them in the net.
The onions, ginger and garlic have all been prepared, and the tofu cubes have also been prepared for a long time, so he naturally makes them directly on the fire.
After all, the first three dishes have taken a lot of time, and even if they have been kept warm, they can't wait too long.
As soon as the fire is ignited, the first thing to put into the pot is none other than Sichuan peppercorns.
It's just that unlike ordinary mapo tofu, Zhao Youqian also put some previously boiled lard into the vegetable oil.
Use these two oils to fry the pepper oil, and then take out the peppercorn grains that still retain some aroma for later use, and Zhao Youqian directly began to serve the bean paste.
When Sichuan Province makes this dish, some will put meat foam, some will not, in fact, as long as you add some lard or even butter, to make this dish, there will be a strong flavor, adding meat foam is quite a bit of a snake to add a lot of taste, but these two kinds of oil must not be put too much, just one teaspoon or two teaspoons, it is enough.
Stir-fry the chopped bean paste over medium-low heat, and soon the pot will be full of the color of red oil and the aroma of watercress, at this time, put in the ginger and garlic, and raise the temperature again to increase the heat and fragrant, and wait until the pot is full of gas, and when the aroma of watercress, peppercorns, lard and onion and garlic all rises, the drained brain flower can be put into the pot!
The brains of this dish need to be stir-fried a little to remove the moisture from the ingredients, and in addition, it also forces out more fishy taste.
When the brain flower was gradually dyed with a layer of red oil, Zhao Youqian cooked the cooking wine and lit the pot directly, and then he made a move that Zhao Huanjin couldn't understand.
After a few chops, I directly chopped the brain flower into dozens of pieces, and then put the chopped pickled pepper into the pot, and then a large spoonful of water and the long-prepared tofu were put in at the same time!
'Bang la la'
When the high temperature came into contact with the water, even the water quickly boiled, and at this time Zhao Youqian began to season.
Unlike the previous home-cooked tofu, this dish needs to be boiled to absorb the flavor, which is also the key point to make the taste of the two ingredients communicate with each other, and seasoning in advance has become a necessary step.
But the salt is still added before the pot is put in the pot at the end.
One tablespoon light soy sauce, one teaspoon oyster sauce, one teaspoon white pepper, one teaspoon ground Sichuan peppercorns, plus one-third teaspoon of sugar.
Mixed with the saltiness of the bean paste itself, it is definitely enough to taste the flavor before adding salt before cooking.
At this time, there is no need to adjust the heat, just let the seasonings and soup mix with the ingredients inside over medium heat, and there will be five or six minutes for the flavor to come out of the pot.
At this time, Zhao Youqian turned his head and chopped the peppercorns that had been left in front of him to fry the pepper oil but not fried black with a knife for later use.
And the brain flower and tofu stewed in the kitchen did not mean to stop, and soon in less than five minutes, the soup in the pot was almost collected.
After tasting the taste and adding less than half a teaspoon of salt, Zhao Youqian first thickened the starch in the water, and directly wrapped all the ingredients in a layer of oily sauce, and then sprinkled the chopped peppercorns and green onions in the pot, and then Zhao Huanjin took out a rather large white plate with a very eye-catching.
With the steaming brain flower roasted tofu baked, Zhao Youqian's tofu feast made by Shangqing tofu has also come to an end.
"It's finally good!"
The first time he tried this legendary quality tofu ingredient, Zhao Youqian was also quite concentrated.
Sweating profusely, I didn't have time to wipe it down until this time.
"Serve all the food and get ready to eat, at this time, you should be hungry!"
In fact, it didn't take two hours for Zhao Youqian and them to return to the mountain, although it was close to half past seven in the evening, but Zhao Youqian didn't take too long to cook, and this speed was already considered fast.
But now in the face of Zhao Youqian's dishes, Zhao Huanjin couldn't say the word 'not hungry', swallowed his saliva, forcibly suppressed his appetite and nodded his head frantically.
"Okay, I'll take it out!"
Zhao Youqian looked at Zhao Huanjin with a smile and shook his back as he went out serving the food, revealing a helpless smile.
Looking at the two dishes that were left, and a pot of rice, he shook his head.
'Or do it myself?' Has he forgotten that he still has Zhenqi in him? ’
Picking up a large pot of rice with one hand, putting the two dishes on the other, holding them between his fingers, Zhao Youqian lifted his feet, and walked out with Zhao Huanjin's back.
...
At this time, somewhere under the Dragon and Tiger Mountain.
A bunch of figures are gathering.
The greatest evil path in the one-man world was originally scheduled to be done against Longhu Mountain after Luo Tian Dajiao.
However, the head of the all-sex generation who was lurking in Longhu Mountain saw some changes after Zhao Youqian entered Longhu Mountain.
It was determined that the variables in Longhu Mountain, as well as Tian Lao's various changes, originated from this inexplicable alien family!
'Is it so mysterious to use Qi into the dish? ’
This all-sex generation head didn't believe it, he thought that this was the birth of some kind of 'Eight Wonder Skills' who didn't know the specific ability.
In the past, there was a 'Jiashen Rebellion' in the Inhuman Realm, and the root cause was that a famous disciple befriended a person of all sexes, and studied the Eight Wonder Techniques that can be called the supreme method of the Inhuman Realm.
And they have become the target of all the forces in the Inhuman Realm.
The head of the whole sex back then, Wu Gensheng, was known as one of the thirty-six thieves, and in the end, Wu Gensheng also betrayed the whole sex and disappeared.
The acting head of the whole sex did not hesitate to hide and sneaked into Longhu Mountain for three years, the target was Tian Lao, hoping to get the news of the Jiashen Rebellion and even the Eight Wonders from his mouth.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Youqian's rejuvenation chicken completely changed Tian Lao, and now his identity lurking in Longhu Mountain can no longer continue to get close to Tian Lao, and even take care of him.
So he shifted his goal to the variables that could make Tian Lao change so much.
That is, I just came to Longhu Mountain to travel... Zhao Youqian!
"So you let us come here to deal with such a hairy boy?"
Someone in the shadows questioned it.
"It's our agreement, you need to promise me something, don't you?"
The acting head of the whole sex showed a chuckle.
"Well, you say time!"
The figures looked at each other, and they had no opinion.
"Now!"
As soon as the voice of the head of the whole sex generation fell, everyone was suddenly shocked, and then the breath was surging towards him!
