Ivan finally tasted the subtle differences between several types of shrimp dumplings.

But this difference, he tasted in another way.

At first, he tasted it in the order of one, two, three, four, but no matter how he rinsed his mouth, he still couldn't taste the difference.

Then he came up with a solution.

After eating the fourth shrimp dumpling, he rinsed his mouth and then tasted the first cage again in turn.

This time, he finally felt the difference.

The fourth cage really needs to be more refreshing and slippery!

Alas, compared with Dong Xiaowan, the difference in taste talent is not a little bit!

Ivan was slightly annoyed.

However, he immediately thought that once he completed the systematic task of saving the celebrity chef, wouldn't he also have this powerful talent?

At the thought of it, he immediately became motivated.

He divided five by two, and stuffed himself several shrimp dumplings in a row, feeling full, so he divided the remaining dumplings into two parts, one for Tie Niu, and one for Xiaocui.

"Let's go, go back to Wanlou. ”

With Dong Xiaowan here, Ivan doesn't have to worry about Chef Zheng making things difficult for him.

But on the way back, he was thinking about a problem.

Now that you have clearly felt the malice from Chef Zheng, do you want to remind Dong Xiaowan?

It's better to be reminded, after all, the two are now partners.

"Xiao Wan, do you know why Chef Zheng behaved abnormally just now?"

"Why?"

"He may have been jealous. ”

has been in the back kitchen of Guangdong for a long time, and Ivan has long been familiar with the kind of small-bellied chicken intestines among chefs, and he quickly guessed the reason.

"Impossible, right?"

Dong Xiaowan was surprised.

In her impression, Chef Zheng has always been responsive to her questions and her requests, so even if his behavior is a little abnormal today, she does not doubt what Ivan said.

Ivan shook his head slightly.

Alas, although the little girl is in a complicated environment, she is still young after all, and she does not understand the complexity and ugliness of human nature.

"You don't know your heart, you better be careful. ”

Ivan reminded first.

"Do you know what he said when I went back to the kitchen with Tie Niu in the morning? He said that in the future, Tie Niu and I are not allowed to leave the kitchen at will without his permission. ”

Dong Xiaowan immediately fell silent.

Although she is young, she has experienced changes in her family.

The reason why her family is in debt now is because of the ghosts of those seemingly loyal and honest guys.

Therefore, what Ivan is saying now surprises her, but it is not so surprised that she doubts life.

"Well, I see, so what to do?"

She asked about Ivan and Iron Bull not being able to leave the kitchen.

Ivan didn't have so many scruples.

He had already inquired, and although Chef Zheng was nominally his master, he did not perform the apprenticeship ceremony, so the two were not really in a master-apprentice relationship.

The same goes for including the Iron Bull.

To put it bluntly, he and Tie Niu were used by Chef Zheng to do chores.

In that case, what does he have to scruple about?

"It's okay, you just pretend not to know, and go directly to him to ask for someone, I guess he doesn't dare to offend you in person. Or, you just go and tell Mother Wu and ask her to directly appoint me and Tie Niu to help you, didn't she ask you to increase the amount of small Wan buns?"

Ivan began to instigate.

He can still see the stakes clearly.

Although Chef Zheng's cooking skills are not bad, compared to the importance of Qin Lou, he is too far from Dong Xiaowan.

Dong Xiaowan nodded: "Okay, then leave this matter to me?"

She was also disgusted by Chef Zheng and didn't want to continue to mention the matter.

After returning to Wanlou, she began to change the subject: "Is this crystal shrimp dumpling sold tonight?"

Ivan immediately shook his head.

Are you kidding?

Although this crystal shrimp dumpling was a great success in the first trial, it is far from being close to perfection, how can Ivan not make up for all possible shortcomings, how can it be brought to the market?

"No, this shrimp dumpling still needs to be perfected, for example, to solve the problem of greasy. ”

This is exactly why Ivan is in a hurry to return to Wanlou.

Although the taste of this crystal shrimp dumpling is first-class, as Dong Xiaowan said, if you eat too much, you will feel greasy.

This is definitely a BUG.

But how to solve this problem?

Ivan pondered.

Removing the fat from the minced meat should be a good option, but is that enough?

Even if only lean meat is used, there is a lot of fat in the jelly.

Then reduce the amount of jelly?

Ivan immediately rejected the idea.

The reason why the shrimp dumplings taste so good today is that in addition to the smooth texture of the shrimp plays a big role, the moisturizing of the jelly soup is also crucial.

Ivan had already reduced the amount of jelly, and if he reduced it any more, the meat filling might look a little dry, which would probably outweigh the losses.

Of course, this is a matter of trial and error.

So what to do?

It seems that the only way to neutralize the oiliness is by adding vegetables.

During cooking, many vegetables can neutralize the oiliness of meat, such as celery, radish, cabbage, cucumber, etc.

Ivan quickly thought of this.

He thought again of the vegetables that are usually used to make dumplings: celery, cabbage, leeks, shiitake mushrooms......

Celery and leeks were the first to be vetoed by him.

These two vegetables have a heavier flavor that affects the original flavor of the shrimp.

Shiitake mushrooms were also vetoed by him.

Shiitake mushrooms also have a heavier flavor, not only that, but the skin jelly itself is boiled with shiitake mushroom soup, and if you add shiitake mushrooms, the shiitake mushroom flavor is a little too strong.

Then try the cabbage!

He took out the flannel bag again and found a few baby cabbages of good quality.

Baby cabbage, also known as miniature Chinese cabbage, is planted with soil after the Chinese cabbage is ripe and harvested, and then the roots sprout and grow.

Compared with Chinese cabbage, baby cabbage is much smaller in size and has a more delicate taste.

In terms of nutritional composition, the two components are relatively close, but the carotene of baby cabbage is about 74 times that of Chinese cabbage, and vitamins B1 and B6 are also a little richer.

Therefore, high-end restaurants often use baby cabbage instead of cabbage, such as the famous baby cabbage in soup.

Since Ivan wants to pursue perfection in shrimp dumplings, he naturally has to use baby cabbage instead of Chinese cabbage.

Everything has to be the best!

It just so happened that Ivan had purchased some vegetables during the big purchase yesterday, including baby cabbage that was not available on the side of the copy.

Ivan started to get busy again, and Dong Xiaowan was responsible for helping him.

Although the iron bull is not there, it is still difficult for Ivan to peel the shrimp, scrape the shrimp puree, knock the shrimp and slip the shrimp.

And he also found that peeling shrimp and doing shrimp slippery can also improve his water platform proficiency and knife skills.

After more than an hour of busyness, another batch of shrimp dumpling experiments was freshly baked.

"Let's go, go to the kitchen. ”

"Let's go. ”

Dong Xiaowan was also a little excited.

But she didn't know it yet, and this was the beginning of the torture that was going on for her.
