"The moon in the lotus pond? What a plain name..."

The old heavenly master stroked his beard and smiled, glanced at the faintly impatient Nu Liang Slippery Scoop, and suddenly spoke.

"If Lao Dao is not mistaken, this should be a cold noodle?"

Zhao Youqian looked at Old Heavenly Master Zhang with some surprise after hearing this, he didn't expect this person to see his thoughts on this dish so quickly.

But he nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, cold noodles with wine, but they have a different flavor!"

The completion of the lotus root belt processing does not mean that Zhao Youqian's work is completed, and the processing of the lotus has just begun!

I saw Zhao Youqian take out two fresh eggs, tap them lightly, let the eggshells separate, shake them left and right, and throw out the egg yolk, and only the egg white was left in the bowl, and the egg yolk was put into another small bowl.

Stir the egg whites and egg yolks respectively, and in the strange eyes of one person and one ghost, Zhao Youqian directly took out a whisk, but it was not to deal with eggs, but he took out two steel bowls, one large and one small, in the kitchenware cabinet, and after the large steel bowl was stuffed with ice cubes, he took out a bag of flour and a bag of cornstarch from the staple food warehouse.

"It's... Want to fry something? ”

Old Heavenly Master Zhang showed a look of surprise, he didn't expect Zhao Youqian to actually add fried noodles to cold noodles.

"Fried? What kind of dish is this? ”

Nuliang Slippery Scoop has seen Zhao Youqian stir-fry, boil, stew, and frying This process is extremely rare, and the Dongying of their world, at this time, the most famous fried food of tempura has not yet been introduced, and only a few large households will make things with fried, so Nuliang Slippery Scoop is also very unfamiliar with this practice.

"Make tempura batter first, I'm going to make tempura!"

In the past few years in Dongying, Zhao Youqian has also learned a lot of new things, coupled with his mastery of heat, as long as the tempura has figured out the proportion of batter, it is really not a difficult dish for him.

Unlike modern Tozakura chefs, who sometimes put beer in the tempura batter to add a crispy texture, Zhao Youqian's method is more primitive and more challenging to the heat.

Carbonic acid softens the ingredients, and when the ingredients are fried, it is difficult to notice even if they are too hot, but the pure tempura batter is about the color of the ingredients.

A thin and transparent batter is the most standard way to make tempura.

Moreover, the production of batter must be kept at a low temperature to reduce the production of gluten, and the process of making batter is also cumbersome than the current practice, if it is not for the strong taste of his noodles, Zhao Youqian is too lazy to use such troublesome means.

"Tempura..."

The Heavenly Master chewed these words, but there were not too many surprises.

"Lao Dao has never tasted it, this time I borrowed the hand of the little store manager, and it opened my eyes!"

With a smile in his eyes, but from time to time it fell on the body of Nu Liang, at this time it would be strange if he couldn't see Zhao Youqian and this cat, but there has always been a force in this shop to protect Zhao Youqian, which they have long been aware of, so he is not very worried about Zhao Youqian's safety.

I just want to know how Zhao Youqian provoked this.

Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Master had already entered the theater mode, and Zhao Youqian kept stirring while making tempura batter.

According to the ratio of 1 to 5, add cornstarch and low-gluten flour, the flour with small gluten can have enough crispiness and not be too thick on the ingredients, constantly stir to mix the two flours, and then add a little pepper to play a role in removing the smell of the ingredients, and then add egg whites and ice water.

The ratio of ice water to powder is about 1.5 to 1, and it must be constantly whipped at a low temperature until all the powder is scattered and there is no lump.

Zhao Youqian also specially used a sifted basket to pass over both sides until the batter was lifted and a white line could fall from the whisk, which was the tempura batter that was almost completed.

And at this point, you have to play for at least an hour, and then Zhao Youqian scoops up the soaked lotus seeds, bamboo shoots, lotus petals and everything, and uses kitchen paper to absorb the moisture on the surface for later use.

At this time, the soup stock was almost at the final step, and Zhao Youqian began to use a special fryer to start preheating.

To fry tempura, you can't use ordinary vegetable oil or mixed oil, but sesame oil, and it must be sesame oil, and the purity is not high or low.

When sesame oil is fried, the temperature is too high to produce a bitter taste, and if the temperature is too low, the flavor of sesame oil is too strong, and it can be said that tempura is just a way to fry things, but the people of Tozakura have brought it to the point where every detail is taken into account.

The taste naturally takes on a special flavor, and although there is still a gap between it and the truly top-notch dishes in Yaozhou, even the Yaozhou Dragon Chef must recognize that Tozakura's fry-making skills in tempura are anything but ordinary.

The oil was boiled and preheated, and Zhao Youqian took out the dough that had been refrigerated for a long time, which was the core ingredient of his conditioning this time, and a ripe aroma spread, which also made Nu Liang Slippery Scoop finally put down the wine glass.

Before, he was puzzled by what Zhao Youqian wanted to do, but when the familiar aroma of this dough appeared, he finally didn't have a trace of doubt.

"You're going to make cold soba noodles?"

"Hey, you're a connoisseur!"

Nu Liang smiled lightly.

"Whether soba noodles are delicious or not, I have high requirements!"

In his time, soba was a well-known staple food, and he naturally tasted soba made by the best craftsmen.

The crisp taste still remembers it vividly.

"Don't underestimate me, Lord of the Dragons, I'll give you a taste you've never seen before!"

Zhao Youqian smiled confidently, at this time he had already divided the whole dough, the pale black-brown buckwheat dough was much harder than ordinary flour.

Sprinkled with some dry flour, Zhao Youqian took out a rolling pin, this time it couldn't be fermented, so he didn't use Erniang's root, and rolled the dough into a large piece of dough.

The dough was folded layer by layer, the knife cut without a shadow, and with just a few faint sounds, a piece of dough had turned into thin noodles of the same thickness.

This hand of knife work also made the eyes of the Heavenly Master and Nu Liang shine, because Zhao Youqian seemed to have not shown such fine knife work for a long time, and his expectations for this aspect have also increased by several dimensions.

However, Nu Liang still snorted coldly in a low voice.

"Hurry up, or you'll run out of time!"

Having already figured out a little bit of Nu Liang's slippery character, Zhao Youqian sprinkled a few balls of cut noodles with flour and directly ignored his words.

Turned around and began to process the soup that had already arrived, the broth was used as the base of steam, and all Zhao Youqian wanted to use was the pure chicken soup steamed from the three-layer steam pot chicken!

And the moment he opened the lid, the entire Heavenly Pavilion was left with only the most extreme umami!
