Chapter Seventy-Eight: Delicious Baking 4 (Happy New Year)
The golden light flashed, that is, when the bitter bamboo shoots were pickled, Zhao Youqian's eyes were quick, and when the golden light reached its strongest, he directly stopped all the stoves where the soup was cooked.
Suddenly, several rays of light rose to the sky in the entire Heavenly Pavilion, and the purple casserole was full of smoke.
The faint sound of the flute echoed, just like the sound of the breeze blowing through the bamboo leaves when entering the bamboo forest.
Then the sound of life on the farm sounded, as if in the summer heat, a clear light fell into a dream, it was a gust of wind in the shadow of the afternoon.
It is the bitter gourd inlaid meat that has also reached the fire, the golden light and the sound of the linyin jumped at the same time, and the white mist was even more fluttering, forming a beautiful picture, which made people's hearts ripple, as if entering it and experiencing several baptisms.
Even Hong Yi, who was agitated by his soul, only felt that the impurities in his thick soul were suddenly much less, and his thoughts were running very fast!
'Progress again?! How long has it been? ’
There was a trace of consternation in Hong Yi's eyes, and when he looked at the Heavenly Master, he could only see that the eyes of this Heavenly Daoist were also full of surprise.
But soon they smiled again, after all, no matter what, Zhao Youqian's progress is beneficial to them, and even these dishes now seem to be of great benefit to them, which is really unexpected.
You must know that even if they are not as completely changed in life as Nu Liang and Slippery Scoop, no matter what world they go to, they are true gods, and even immortal existences.
However, the life form has changed, and the Heavenly Master is even more lofty, but the accumulation of power is only a little slower than that of Nu Liang.
Now Zhao Youqian's cooking is his biggest channel for accumulating vitality, and now that his cooking has improved, how can the Heavenly Master not be surprised?
...
"The soup is ready!"
"Tanjiro, you beans, go serve them to a few uncles and grandfathers!"
Zhao Youqian showed a smile, beckoned to the two small ones, and then divided the soup ingredients in the purple casserole into small cups that had been warmed one by one, and sent them to the diners present.
Of course, he didn't just command the two children, he also took the rest of the soup on the plate and sent it to the diners one by one after finishing the portion.
It was at this interval that his last stir-fry and staple food were about to be completed!
'Boom, boom! ’
With the sound of rising flames, the black iron pot quickly became a dark red as the furnace ignited.
With the blessing of high temperature, the entire iron pot soon began to emit white smoke.
Put the cold oil into the pot, pour it out after moistening the pot, then add the cold oil, and at the same time send the whole bowl of crushed and finely chopped salted egg yolk into the iron pot, and then stir constantly.
The amount of oil should not be too small, and if it is too little, it will easily stick to the pan, and the egg yolk will not easily stir-fry the sand, and it will become a crumb mixed with fat and bubbles to expand.
However, the amount of oil can not be much, if there is too much, then after the bitter gourd below enters, it will be too oily and the salted egg yolk can not be adsorbed on the bitter gourd, not to mention all the unloading, it is difficult to eat, very greasy.
The certainty of this is difficult for ordinary people to grasp.
Fortunately, Zhao Youqian's best thing is frying, coupled with the continuous shaking of the iron pot, he held the frying spoon in one hand without a moment's pause, constantly stirring the salted egg yolks in the pot.
Soon the pot began to bubble up in layers of foam.
The salted egg yolk with some bright red color gradually turns golden brown and blends into the heated grease and becomes a bubble-like state!
This time is not the best degree, considering that the temperature rises, the oil and the salted egg yolk puff reaction, the aroma molecules are released, in order to ensure that the taste reaches the best point, Zhao Youqian's sense of smell has also been opened to the maximum extent.
Only when the salted egg yolk in the pot has fluffed to the point that it has filled the pot, and the taste of the salted egg yolk has reached its best.
This is the time that Zhao Youqian needs!
The full salted egg yolk swelled to the extreme, and the aroma and color were at the peak of golden color, and the white jade bitter gourd slices that had already been ready to marinate most of the bitterness were blended into the steaming wok.
"Bang la la"
This is the sound of oil and water colliding at high temperatures.
Immediately, the swollen egg yolks collapsed as if they had encountered a catastrophe.
The bitter gourd slices quickly spread out in the pot, followed by a quick stir-fry, and the entire iron pot was picked up by Zhao Youqian with one hand and stirred while stirring well.
At the same time, minced garlic and millet spicy were added, and at the same time, the aroma of stir-frying was exuded.
Before the diners in the entire Zhutian Restaurant tasted the bitter bamboo shoots pickled and fresh, they were already attracted by Zhao Youqian's stir-fry again!
Ignoring the attention of the diners, Zhao Youqian's eyes were only inside the pot after the ingredients were put into the pot.
The taste of bitter gourd gradually changed from green to ripe combined with salted egg yolk, and then dyed with the aroma of minced garlic and millet spicy, which changed very quickly, and he could not relax for a moment.
When the white jade bitter gourd was gradually wrapped in a golden salted egg yolk, it was also the time when Zhao Youqian's attention was the most concentrated, and he was going to season it!
Although the salted egg yolk itself has a certain degree of saltiness, the taste is far from enough compared to the later addition of bitter gourd, although the bitter gourd also pickled some salt, but the subsequent cleaning and squeezing out of the water have lowered these saltiness to almost nothing.
Therefore, this dish naturally needs to be seasoned when it is about to be completed, otherwise only the faint taste of salted egg yolk and bitter gourd remains, so how fragrant is the fried food?
Generally speaking, in order to increase the saltiness, the saltiness of the ingredients will be used, that is, the protein part of the salted duck eggs, but this will actually make the saltiness slightly uneven and slightly ruin the taste.
Zhao Youqian didn't mind the accumulation of salted duck protein, anyway, he had the opportunity to use all these things and preserve them properly, so he naturally had to pursue a better taste experience.
Some sea salt and sugar, mixed into the wok, the approximate ratio of 1.5 to 1, the sea salt is slightly more, use the sugar to ease the saltiness and bitterness, use the sea salt to bring out the aroma and sweetness, in the seasoning at the same time, sprinkle the long-prepared green onion into it, this "salted egg yolk bitter gourd" can be declared complete.
This dish is served with both sake and rice, and the most important thing is that the bitter taste is not strong, and people who are extremely reluctant to bitter gourd can also try it, which can be regarded as a bitter introductory dish.
Spoonful by spoon the finished dish was scooped onto the plate, and it was only at this time that the diners of Zhutian Restaurant noticed that the golden color of the food itself actually concealed the golden vision of the food, and more importantly, the faint sound of silk and bamboo orchestra actually sounded after the food was served.
For a while, even the regular customers of Zhutian Restaurant didn't know which dish to eat first......
