Chapter 142: Shiitake Mushroom Box
The new recipe is a representative dish of Hui cuisine - shiitake mushroom box. Pen Fun Ω 『 Pavilion .『 Originally, Hua Qingyan planned to teach the chef of Guanlanju to make shredded pork with Beijing sauce, but this sauce was a little troublesome. When she saw the shiitake mushrooms in the kitchen, she had another idea.
Before, Hua Qingyan only taught some very simple mushroom recipes, either fried shredded pork or stewed soup. However, no matter how delicious the shiitake mushrooms are, it is inevitable that diners will get tired of the same method, so there are still a lot left in the kitchen. Hua Qingyan looked at the ingredients, and then told the guy in the kitchen to buy some shrimp and come back.
The young man is the kitchen assistant, and the happiest thing every day is when the chefs are cooking, and he can learn a lot even if he helps with the side dishes. What made him even happier was Hua Qingyan's arrival, as a person from Guanlanju, he naturally knew Hua Qingyan's identity very well, and as soon as he heard Hua Qingyan's instructions, he immediately ran out with a vegetable basket, and didn't ask what he wanted to do with the shrimp that everyone didn't eat.
But when those chefs heard that Hua Qingyan wanted shrimp, their faces changed. This shrimp is naturally worthless when it is seen in coastal areas, and in their eyes it is completely what those fishermen eat. What's more, it's not that they haven't cooked with shrimp, but it's not that the taste is always unsatisfactory, and the shrimp shell is more meat and less meaty, and there are not many people who eat it, so the restaurant has never put shrimp into the dish over time. Now seeing that Hua Qingyan wants to use shrimp, the chefs have shown suspicious looks, but they dare not question Hua Qingyan.
Shopkeeper Qi couldn't wait to follow Hua Qingyan all the time, so Hua Qingyan entered the back kitchen, and he naturally followed. For Hua Qingyan to use shrimp, others didn't dare to ask, but the shopkeeper Qi didn't have so many concerns, and asked when he had doubts: "Miss Qingyan, what is the use of this shrimp?" Or is it something else? ”
"That's how shrimp is eaten, and there's nothing special about it."
Hua Qingyan was removing the stems of the large shiitake mushrooms that were specially picked out one by one, and instructed the chefs to take the pork belly and chop it into a puree, and then mix in the appropriate amount of ingredients. The chefs of Guanlanju are all experienced in battles, so they understand the appropriate amount of Hua Qingyan very thoroughly. Hua Qingyan looked at it, and asked people to add two eggs to the meat puree to make the meat more tender.
She poured half a pot of chicken stewed broth into the pot, put the mushrooms in one by one and boiled, about two minutes later, the soup in the pot boiled, Hua Qingyan just wanted to take out the mushrooms in the pot, and a cook who was watching on the side quickly snatched the work in Hua Qingyan's hand: "Miss Qingyan, it's still me, so as not to burn you." If there's anything you need to do, you can tell me. The man said and looked at his dazzled right hand.
Hua Qingyan was stunned, and then thanked with a smile: "Thank you." Then you're welcome. ”
Kitchen Everyone: "......"
This kid is so scheming! I don't want to say anything about pleasing Miss Qingyan, so I can get Miss Qingyan's guidance, this observation and guidance are not the same! A trace of resentment flashed in everyone's hearts, and they glared at the man several times vaguely. But it was also clever, ran to the stove to the side and did it again according to Hua Qingyan's previous practice, and after finishing it, they looked at Hua Qingyan expectantly, as if urging her to continue quickly.
Looking at those eyes full of curiosity, Hua Qingyan felt like she was back in the class of Wuwu and Xi'er, Hua Qingyan sneered, and did not sell it, and asked them to make the meat puree into a ball and put it in the sunken mushroom umbrella.
At this time, the young man who went out to buy shrimp came back, Hua Qingyan looked up and saw him crying and sad, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" Didn't you buy the shrimp? ”
"Miss Qingyan." The young man scratched his head and handed the basket out of his hand, "I don't know what to say, you can see for yourself." There are several kinds of shrimp, big and small, I don't know what you want, so I just bought a little back, you see what can be used, not enough for me to buy again. ”
Hua Qingyan nodded, motioned for him to put the basket on the ground, and then squatted down to see the young man's results. As he said, there are many varieties, and they are all common sea shrimp, including prawns, jiwei shrimp, angler shrimp, lobsters, etc. However, even though there are many types of shrimp, the total amount in the basket is small, and it can be half blue.
However, Hua Qingyan doesn't have many shrimps, only one shrimp is taken on each shiitake mushroom, and these shrimps are estimated to be about the same. Hua Qingyan simply didn't let the young man run again, and said that it was enough, but she still kindly mentioned to the shopkeeper Qi that the appearance rate of shrimp in her future dishes would be relatively high, so the shopkeeper Qi still prepared some more shrimp in the back kitchen.
Shopkeeper Qi agreed again and again, in this regard, he would not refute Hua Qingyan at all, Guanlan Ju knew that Hua Qingyan was their God of Wealth!
Just when the shopkeeper Qi instructed the person in charge of purchasing to include the shrimp in the daily purchase list in the future, Hua Qingyan had already instructed the guys in the back kitchen to cut off the shrimp at the waist and peel the skin and cramp. Hua Qingyan pointed to the tendons drawn from the shrimp tail while directing and explained: "This is the shrimp line, that is, the intestines of the shrimp, just like all intestines, the inside is not clean, so when making shrimp in the future, we must pay attention to cleaning up the shrimp line." ”
"Yes, Miss Qingyan, we remember!"
This group of open-minded and highly comprehending students really made Hua Qingyan too satisfied, and they obeyed Hua Qingyan's orders unconditionally, not like the two curious babies in the family, who asked a lot of questions every time Hua Qingyan was speechless.
The white and tender shrimp rolled in the egg white, making it even more crystalline. Hua Qingyan used chopsticks to pick up a shrimp and dotted it on the red meatballs, and the whole mushroom box formed a small tower, with shrimp on the top, meatballs on the second layer, and shiitake mushrooms at the bottom. Hua Qingyan sorted out the mushroom box and put it into the steamer.
Hua Biluo was sitting in the hall with worry-free and Xi'er, and a storyteller recently came to the small stage built by Guanlanju, who specialized in telling the stories of those dignitaries and nobles in Yongjing City, and the most told was naturally the famous Rui Wang. Although the two little guys don't understand a lot of things, it doesn't prevent them from drawing conclusions in their hearts - that Rui Wang is so powerful, he is a hero of the world!
Well! They know what a hero is! It's like Grandpa and Daddy, who lead troops to fight and defend the territory!
Hua Biluo was a little emotional, the name of this Rui King is really thunderous wherever he goes. It's just that another person who can be called the god of war, but now no one wants to mention it, and the former glory of the Hua family seems to have become taboo now! I don't know when I will be able to settle my grievances.
Striking a beat, the storyteller was talking about the first battle in which King Rui led his troops when he was more than ten years old, and the people in the hall were listening with relish, when suddenly an abnormality floated from the back kitchen. The fragrance is very strong, with a hint of sweetness, which is simply refreshing! Everyone shrugged their noses unconsciously, hoping that the smell would stay on the tip of their noses for a while.
"Eh, where did the fragrance come from! So fragrant! Isn't it a new dish in Guanlanju! I've never smelled it before! ”
"I smell shiitake mushrooms, it won't be mushroom stew again**! It's delicious, but it's also boring if you don't innovate! ”
"It's not like chicken stew with shiitake mushrooms! This smell is unheard of! Man, man, is there a new dish today! Hurry up, tell us about it! ”
The diners exploded the pot, and at this time, they no longer paid attention to the storyteller, and they all craned their necks to look into the back kitchen, as if they could see the dishes being cooked inside through the door of the back kitchen.
Hua Biluo naturally smelled the fragrance, and Wuwu shrugged his cute little nose and said, "It's my mother who is cooking!" Only a mother can make such a delicious dish! ”
"Brother, Xiangxiang, eat!" Xi'er dragged Wuwu with one hand, and took the other hand into her mouth and sucked it, her little face full of longing.
This temptation is not even resisted by adults, let alone children. Carefree quickly slid off the stool, and thoughtfully hugged Xi'er down, and only after his sister stood firm did he run to the back kitchen holding hands. Hua Biluo didn't stop the two little guys, just followed them closely.
The noise in the hall was naturally heard in the kitchen, and when Wuwu and Xi'er came in, Hua Qingyan was doing the final process of this mushroom box - thickening.
"Mother, mother, mother, delicious! Xi'er wants to eat! As soon as Xi'er saw Hua Qingyan, she threw away her brother's hand and ran over quickly to ask.
Hua Qingyan looked down at the little guy who was holding his legs, and said with a smile: "I'll give Xi'er food in a while, Xi'er is good, and go outside to play with my brother." ”
Hua Qingyan unhurriedly poured the soup of the mushrooms that had been boiled before into the hot pot, added soy sauce and salt, and after the soup was boiled, poured the adjusted starch and oil into it, stirred it with a spoon and poured it on the steamed mushroom box.
The moment the sauce was poured out, there was a sizzling sound, lined with the fragrance of the room, which was extraordinarily tempting, making everyone swallow their saliva! The shopkeeper Qi even grabbed one directly, and he didn't care about the hot bite and took a bite!
Not! The shrimp is sweet and tender, the pork is even more sour but not greasy, with the shiitake mushrooms at the bottom, this bite down, three textures, three flavors, instantly burst on the tip of the tongue, so that the shopkeeper Qi can't wait to eat his tongue!
"Mother! Xi'er also wants Xi'er! As soon as Xi'er saw that the shopkeeper Qi had eaten first, she didn't do it, hugged Hua Qingyan's legs and shook it, her little face was full of grievances, "Mother, mother, mother!" ”
Hua Qingyan touched Xi'er's head and looked at it again. Although Xiao Wuwu didn't say it, the eyes that stared at the bowl in the hands of the shopkeeper Qi were full of longing. "Okay, my mother will get it for you and my brother, can you finish eating one?" Hua Qingyan asked worry-free. After all, the mushrooms she picked were big, and the mushroom boxes she made were also large, and there were only five in such a stack, but the plates were full. Hua Qingyan was a little worried that she couldn't finish her meal.
Wuwu looked at the size of the mushroom box and nodded firmly: "Yes!" ”
