Chapter Seventy-Three: Doubts

Ma Jiaoxi turned around, glanced at Lin Xiaozhu with a complicated expression, and said, "Fish-flavored little slippery meat." ”

Lin Xiaozhu thought about it for a while, and then cut the meat with a knife.

The so-called small slippery pork is, of course, a dish made of quick stir-fry with soft and tender meat. The raw material used is naturally sliced meat, not shredded meat. So what she cut with the knife was still the same as yesterday, a slice of meat.

The fish flavor is the fish flavor in the finished dish. However, the flavor does not come from "fish", but is made by soaking red peppers, green onions, ginger, garlic, sugar, salt, soy sauce and other condiments. It has salty, sour, sweet, spicy, fragrant, fresh and rich onion, ginger and garlic flavors.

Lin Xiaozhu liked to eat Sichuan cuisine very much in her previous life, and this kind of fish-flavored dish is very homely in Sichuan cuisine, so she is familiar with the method. However, the fish-flavored tofu she ate when she first arrived at the villa, she found that chili peppers were not used in that dish. During her time in Qingxi Town, she didn't see chili peppers either. At that time, I also asked Old Man Xue and Zhang Dong sideways, but I was sad to find that they didn't know what a chili pepper was.

Seeing that after Lin Xiaozhu took the knife, there were still slices of meat on the cutting board, and the onlookers were surprised for a while, and couldn't help whispering: "Could it be that after one night's hard work, Lin Xiaozhu has practiced very good knife skills, and can he cut the meat slices into very thin and thin pieces?" ”

"I really don't see any difference between the slices of meat she cut today and yesterday."

"It's the same as yesterday, so what else is there to cut? Isn't she scolding herself? ”

Zhou Yuchun couldn't hold his breath the most, and when he heard everyone talking about it, he pulled Su Xiaoshu's sleeve: "Didn't Lin Xiaozhu say that she came up with a way?" How do you cut it like it was yesterday? ”

Su Xiaoshu shook his head, his eyes were firmly fixed on the knife under Lin Xiaozhu's hand, and his brows furrowed into the word "Chuan".

Xia Shan's reaction was different. His eyes were not staring at the knife under Lin Xiaozhu's hand. Instead, he focused on the horse teaching. He always felt that since Lin Xiaozhu said that she had come up with a method, and she looked confident at this time, then she had her own reasons for cutting it like this. People criticize it just because they don't understand. They don't understand that it doesn't matter, the key is what kind of reaction the horse teaches and learns.

And the same as Xia Shan, who was staring at Ma Jiaoxi's face, was Wu Pingqiang. On the first night he spent in the wild after coming out of the mountains, Lin Xiaozhu pointed out the mistakes made by Yuan Lin in public, and cooked Yuan Tianye with his own hands. Wu Pingqiang has already regarded her as a major competitor. Lin Xiaozhu's performance last night, his thoughts were even better than that day. This morning, I heard Wu Caiyun say that Lin Xiaozhu came up with the answer to the question, so he thought about the problem of Ma Jiaoxi, and still has no clue.

So at the beginning, I saw Lin Xiaozhu looking like he was in his chest. And after asking Ma to teach Xi to go under the knife again, it was very different from yesterday, and he was a little frustrated. I felt like I had lost again. And at this time, seeing that Ma Jiaoxi looked at the meat slices under Lin Xiaozhu's knife, his face was still so ugly, and his heart relaxed again - the method that Lin Xiaozhu came up with didn't seem to be correct.

Everyone is talking. Ma Jiaoxi said coldly in his mouth: "Stir-fried meat with shredded radish." ”

Lin Xiaozhu froze, and his heart suddenly relaxed. She knew it. It's the right thing to do on your own.

Knife skills are not only about cutting shredded radish into thin strips, but also about cutting ingredients into different shapes according to the needs of different dishes. It doesn't matter if the slices of meat are cut thin and transparent, and whether the shredded meat is evenly shredded. Because these kung fu can be practiced with hard work. But whether to draw inferences from each other and whether to use your brain to think is what makes a good chef a good cook.

Yesterday, Ma Jiaoxi gave her a piece of meat, and she didn't ask. I took it for granted that I cut the meat into slices and thought that I had cut it very well. Ma Jiaoxi was naturally dissatisfied with an apprentice like her and wanted to beat her. And not surprisingly.

She placed the slices of meat on a plate next to her, and then cut them again. Then cut the meat slices into shreds.

And this time, everyone quieted down, stopped talking, and wrinkled their brows and thought: the same piece of meat, Lin Xiaozhu also cut it into slices, why didn't Ma Jiaoxi say that it was wrong, and issued a new instruction. Obviously, what she is doing now should be the right thing, right? It's just that why is Ma Jiaoxi's face still so ugly?

Watching Lin Xiaozhu cut the meat slices into shreds, Ma Jiaoxi gave another order: "Braised pork." ”

"Huh?" Lin Xiaozhu raised his head and looked at Ma Jiaoxi, then lowered his head and glanced at the piece of meat in his hand seriously, and said, "This is pork tenderloin, which is not suitable for braised pork." ”

Ma Jiaoxi didn't speak, his face became even more gloomy, his eyes stared at Lin Xiaozhu, and he repeated coldly: "Braised pork." ”

Lin Xiaozhu raised his eyes, glanced at Ma Jiaoxi quietly, then put down the knife and saluted him: "I'm sorry, Ma Jiaoxi." This piece of meat is not suitable for braised pork, and I can't follow your instructions. ”

The children, who had only been quiet for a while, couldn't help but talk about it again.

In today's first ingredient class, Yu Jiaoxi told you about the characteristics of each part of the meat on the pig and the dishes suitable for cooking. Everyone clearly remembers that Yu Jiaoxi said that tenderloin is a piece of lean meat under the backbone that is connected to the big ribs. Because there is no gluten in the meat, it is the most tender meat in pork, which can be sliced, shredded, diced, fried, boiled, fried, and fried. Pork belly, on the other hand, is the meat of the elbow bone of the rib part, with a layer of fat meat and a layer of lean meat mixed with each other, which is suitable for braised meat, white stew and steamed pork.

Although he only took one class, none of the children that Yuan Tianye bought were stupid. Everyone can naturally see that the piece of meat in Lin Xiaozhu's hand is the tenderloin that Yu Jiaoxi showed them in the morning. Obviously, Ma Jiaoxi said that it is not suitable to make braised pork.

Su Xiaoshu and Xia Shan frowned. They didn't know what Yu Jiaoxi meant by knowing that this piece of meat was not suitable for braised pork, but still insisting that Lin Xiaozhu cut it into braised pork. But Lin Xiaozhu had already offended Ma Jiaoxi, but today he sincerely came to make amends, and now he is holding on like this, just not following Ma Jiaoxi's intentions, wouldn't it annoy him even more? If it continues to be so stiff, Lin Xiaozhu's future knife homework will not be able to be completed again?

"Lin Xiaozhu, do what Ma taught Xi." Zhou Yuchun couldn't help it and persuaded out loud.

It was as if I hadn't heard everyone's discussion and Zhou Yuchun's persuasion. Lin Xiaozhu pursed her lips tightly, and with her big crystal black eyes, she quietly looked at Ma Jiaoxi. There is no trace of hesitation and hesitation in his eyes, just like a lake under the warm sun in winter, quiet and waveless, but revealing an indescribable firm persistence.

In fact, she is not the kind of pedantic person who does not hit the south wall and does not look back. But she felt that if she followed the meaning of Ma Jiaoxi and cut the meat into pieces, then she would fail the exam this time. It's not that she thinks too much. She only felt that by cutting the meat into slices and shredding as requested, Ma Jiaoxi should clearly know that she understood the answer. Then he made such a request again. It's nothing more than trying to see if she can stick to what she thinks is right, rather than succumbing to coercion. A cook also has his own persistence.

Look at these big eyes that are clear and translucent, without a trace of impurities. Ma Jiaoxi's heart couldn't help but be plucked, and his face slowly eased.

It is true that the original intention of the question he came up with was just like what Yuan Tianye and Yu Jiaoxi reminded Lin Xiaozhu last night. It's to knock and knock her, so that she doesn't be so proud and complacent. But selfishly. I still don't think much of Lin Xiaozhu is used to it, and I want to embarrass her. Otherwise, asking an apprentice who has just entered the door and has not yet attended any class to be able to say a lot of things about a piece of meat is deliberately difficult no matter how nice it sounds!

didn't expect that Lin Xiaozhu would do such an impossible thing! She understood what he was trying to say, and cut the meat into the desired shape as he had asked for the dish. Such a perception. It was something he had never seen in the apprentices he had taught in the past few years. What is even more rare is that in such a situation. In the face of his ugly face, this kid can still insist on what he should hold onto. How precious is it?

It seems that Lao Yu's words are very right! This is indeed a good seedling, and if it is cultivated well, it will become a great tool.

Thinking of this, he slowed down his face, walked to the side of the desk, picked up the slices of meat and shredded meat that Lin Xiaozhu had cut, and examined them carefully. Suddenly, he glanced at Lin Xiaozhu with a surprised face, but he didn't speak, but walked to the hanging basket, took out another piece of meat from it, put it in front of Lin Xiaozhu, and said lightly: "Cut it into meat slices again." ”

Lin Xiaozhu was a little puzzled this time. But she didn't say anything, glanced at Ma Jiaoxi, then looked at the piece of meat, picked up the knife and cut it gently.

After cutting a short section, Ma Jiaoxi shouted, "Stop." Then he stepped forward, picked up the slices of meat, and looked at them carefully. After reading it, his eyes were firmly fixed on Lin Xiaozhu: "How do you know to cut according to the lines on this meat?" ”

It turned out that the tenderloin was originally horizontal because of the texture, so it was cut off, and the meat slices just met the requirements of the horizontal cut. But the buttocks he took behind him were originally a piece of meat from the buttocks above the hind legs and below the tip of the buttocks, although the buttocks were all lean, but the meat was older and the fibers were longer. If you want to slice and fry, you can only cut it horizontally according to the texture, otherwise you can't bite it in your mouth, and the taste is very bad. And its texture is not as uniform as the loin, some are horizontally long, some are vertical. Lin Xiaozhu noticed this, and according to the lines, all of them were cross-cut, which couldn't help but be suspicious.

After going back yesterday, he asked Yuan Lin about Lin Xiaozhu's situation, and found that Lin Xiaozhu was not as he imagined, Yuan Tianye brought in his beloved woman from outside, but just an ordinary girl bought back from the mountains. Moreover, the family history has also been investigated, and there is no suspicion.

Then this is strange, life in the mountains is poor and hard, and it is rare to eat meat once a year. This Lin Xiaozhu is like a gluttony who never gets tired of eating and not getting tired of fine food, and he cuts meat so finely. Could it be that there really is such a miracle in the world?
