"I can understand that the charcoal-grilled eel and rice are so delicious. Miss Cai, I would like to ask, why is this soup you boiled with eel liver so sweet and sweet, without a trace of fishy smell? ”

Cai Youyou smiled slightly, walked to the side of the cooking table, and reached out and took out a handful of green leaves: "Because, when I cleaned my liver, I deliberately used cornstarch and this." ”

Old Man An even walked off the judges' bench in person, came to Cai Youyou's side, took the leaf in her hand and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but gasp: "Hey, this is a guava leaf?!" ”

"Yes. Exactly guava leaves. Cai Youyou said: "Just a few days ago, when I was practicing my cooking skills, I once wanted to cook a pork belly porridge for my mother. After more than a dozen attempts, it was finally found that using guava leaves and corn starch to wash animal internal organs can remove the fishy smell and odor to the greatest extent. ”

The specific operation method is to rinse the animal liver in water for a few minutes, then soak it in cold water for 30 minutes, then take it out, rub it with guava leaves and corn starch for 10 minutes, and wash it in clean water.

Hearing Cai Youyou say this, Old Man An suddenly remembered such a thing.

One night, after he returned home, he went to have dinner with An Yueru as usual.

On that day, he ate a pork belly porridge with mellow and fragrant soup, elastic pork belly, and no peculiar smell on the dinner table.

At that time, he was full of praise, but he didn't expect that Cai Youyou, who didn't seem to play according to the routine and did not follow his advice and strictly follow the traditional skills to cook the dishes, actually had her own unique understanding of the dishes, and finally succeeded after serious and rigorous continuous attempts.

Seeing that Cai Youyou was here, he got a full score from the ten judges, and Fang Shi, who was competing on the same stage with her, was not happy.

The reason why he can't wait to outperform Cai Youyou is because, among the Ten of Spades, Ten of Clubs, Ten of Hearts, and Fourteen of Diamonds, his cooking skills are the lowest.

Of course, this is also the reason why Old Man An arranged for him to be the first to compete with Cai Youyou.

Relatively speaking, the lowest cooking skill of the square ten, the face has become extremely ugly.

I'm afraid that after losing to Cai Youyou, a little girl, he will have no face even more!

"Old man, the theme of this competition is the special staple food, not the side dish of the staple food. I admit that the eel grilled by the young master looks tempting, and the soup made with the eel liver is also delicious. However, these are just icing on the cake and do not represent the staple food. What the young master cooks is nothing more than an ordinary bowl of white rice. It's not that I'm boasting, I think, no matter how good ordinary rice is, it's not as good as the Hainanese chicken rice with chicken fat I make, right? ”

After listening to Fang Ten's words, Cai Youyou smiled slightly and said: "What I made is also not ordinary white rice, but chopped water chestnuts, and I also add charcoal-grilled eel on top of the rice, and drizzle with the secret sauce of grilled eel." ”

After hearing this, Square Ten grinned a little unconvinced.

Isn't it nonsense to add water chestnuts to the rice of eel rice?! Can this be delicious?

"You replaced the electric oven-baked eel with charcoal-grilled eel, and you added water chestnuts to the rice, which is not traditional at all, so I don't accept it!"
