Chapter 57: The Golden Vision
"Chili, garlic, shallots, wild ginger, all finely chopped, garnished with soy sauce, salt, sugar, vinegar, and put these cooked offal in it."
Zhao Youqian made full use of the limited ingredients, cut all the cooked chicken offal into small pieces and thin slices, and then put them into the seasoned sauce.
Soak the flavor of the sauce to remove all the offal, that is, the last miscellaneous smell in the chicken offal, and also let the flavor of various spices and sauces blend in, and wait until the flavor enters This is a delicious appetizer.
"But be careful, poultry are usually less flavorful than fish, and fish are smaller than animals."
"So if you want to deal with the offal of pigs, deer, cows, etc., it's not enough to boil it in water, it's another system of cooking."
"Of course, depending on the situation around you, there may be more birds and birds, and fish secondly, the methods I used before to get rid of the smell of fish are enough, as long as the ingredients are fresh enough..."
Some people think that it would be very bad for a woman to show her head, hunt wild beasts, and disembowel.
But Zhao Youqian never felt so, the sages of the human race opened the world and left all kinds of things for future generations, teaching people to put on clothes and learn to eat cooked food, everyone must learn these food, clothing, housing and transportation, which is necessary.
As for the bloody, or dirty, it was because of the people who never had blood and dirty hands that someone did it for them.
The Master's "gentleman is far away from cooking" is about people who have good intentions and can't bear to see the death of things, but it is not to make people choke on food.
You must know that in various records, this master is a skilled archer, and he can even go into battle to kill the enemy, and he never says that people can't cook.
A sentence that teaches people to have good thoughts has become a proof for many people to discredit and belittle the way of cooking, and I don't know how it was formed.
So when explaining to Shi Qingxuan, Zhao Youqian was also extremely natural, and obviously this also surprised her.
"Cooking a thing, the most important thing is to make the best use of things, it is best to keep what can not be wasted, and now the materials are not enough, otherwise the chicken blood can be left, it is a pity..."
Zhao Youqian shook his head, and took advantage of the fact that the chicken offal was soaking, he directly unloaded the bamboo rat into eight pieces and cut them into small pieces the size of a finger.
Then the bamboo shoots were taken out, cut into small pieces, and sent to a clay pot where they were blanched to remove the excess oxalic acid taste.
It's a pity that Shi Qingxuan only has one stove here, so Zhao Youqian had to take out an extra iron pot and use a small stove made of clay on the spot.
And Zhao Youqian's action of making a pot out of thin air really startled Shi Qingxuan, her beautiful eyes flashed with surprise, and then she looked at Shang Xiuxun.
"He... How did he do that? ”
"Is it really as you say, that he is from outside the world?!"
Before, Shang Xiuxun jokingly said in Shi Qingxuan's ear that Zhao Youqian was from outside the world, and originally thought it was a joke from his best friend, but he didn't expect that Zhao Youqian really showed a means that ordinary people can't imagine.
It made Shi Qingxuan believe it a little.
"I thought he would hide for a little longer..."
Shang Xiuxun did not answer positively, but he already affirmed Shi Qingxuan's suspicions.
"What? Do you think I can choke on food? When you can cook conveniently, do you have to set rules for yourself? ”
Turning his head funny, Zhao Youqian looked at Shang Xiuxun and retorted helplessly.
Although Zhao Youqian has always had a rule, don't use things that are not in the world for cooking, even if you find all kinds of ingredients in the valley, it is for this reason, and slightly restricts your hands and feet, and many ingredients that can be used are not exchanged, but only those spices in the valley.
But when it comes to cooking, he still doesn't mind some simple help, after all, it's just kitchen utensils, this is a world where the walls are comparable to high-rise buildings, and the craftsman's architectural ability is far stronger than the real Sui and Tang Dynasties.
It's not that you can't get a lot of things, it's just that you don't have to.
So he naturally didn't mind taking out the iron pot, and sped up the progress of his own cooking, don't look at the bamboo rat to look at the white and tender after the skin is removed, it really takes some time to make it.
First, take out all the bamboo shoots in the clay pot, and then put them in cold water to shower, and by the way, remove some of the oxalic acid flavor again.
On the other side, Shi Qingxuan's lips opened slightly, listening to Shang Xiuxun's detailed introduction to his recent experience and Zhao Youqian's background, the more he listened, the more incredible it became, and the brilliance in his eyes became more and more charming.
"If you can't destroy the sweat glands with a bamboo rat, then don't cut it directly, it's better to burn it and then brush it before processing, you can remove more than seventy percent of the fishy smell, and it can also make the skin of the bamboo rat more elastic."
Zhao Youqian didn't pay attention to the whispers between Shi Qingxuan and Shang Xiuxun, and spoke directly when it was time to speak.
As for whether Shi Qingxuan can remember it, it has nothing to do with him, his professor is not so cheap, and cooking a dish with commentary is enough to repay the understanding of life that he got from Shi Qingxuan before.
After all, his cooking is enough for Shi Qingxuan to recover from the secret injuries in her body, not to mention, and can even lay the foundation for her to enter the path of heaven and man, such a gift is enough to pay off the good fate.
So Zhao Youqian was talking, the movements in his hands were not slow, soybean oil was something that had already existed in the Sui and Tang dynasties, Zhao Youqian directly used some coarsely squeezed soybean oil into the pot to heat, and put wild ginger, wild onions, and chili peppers into it and stir-fried together.
Wait until the fragrance comes out, then put it directly into the bean paste, yes, at this time there is already bean paste in Bashu, but it is not a spicy bean paste, the chili pepper at this time has not been integrated into this sauce, but the preparation method of the bean paste has been formed at this time, which is more similar to the soybean paste with a strong sauce flavor.
When the bean paste was put into the pot, some of the aromas that Zhao Youqian was quite familiar with had already drifted out, and at this time, the bamboo rat got out of the pot and began to stir-fry frantically, until the spicy taste and the aroma of the bean paste were wrapped in the bamboo rat, and the white and tender bamboo rat meat was also wrapped in a layer of sauce.
At this time, a small half spoon of sugar and a tablespoon of soy sauce are added, and when the sugar and soy sauce are absorbed by the ingredients in the iron pot again, then a spoonful of water is enough to cover all the ingredients, and by the way, the bamboo shoots soaked in cold water are also added.
For the time being, you don't need to put salt to taste, because the bean paste is already salty enough, and the soy sauce is added, wait until five minutes before the pot to try the taste, see how salty it is, and then add salt in an appropriate amount.
Although this smoldering bamboo rat lacks some spice flavor, Zhao Youqian is also confident that it tastes good.
That is, when Zhao Youqian stuffed the bamboo rat, Shi Qingxuan had to believe that Shang Xiuxun's words had happened.
The sauce that had just been soaked in chicken offal had gradually begun to glow with a faint golden light, like the moonlight that was about to break through the clouds, descending on the valley!
