Even if you want to treat Fang Yizhi as a free coolie, you still have to feed him first, and you can't let him go hungry to work.

Next, Ivan had to cook something for himself, Dong Xiaowan and Fang Yizhi.

What to do?

Squirrel fish?

This one could be done, but it's not enough.

Crystal shrimp dumplings?

This can be a plate, mainly for Fang Yizhi to try it.

Since you want to make shrimp dumplings, you can bring a plate of steamed tofu with shrimp heads.

It's still not enough, the three of them plus Xiaocui are four people.

Then have another plate of steamed cinnamon fish and a serving of greens.

Ivan is ready to work on his whole fish feast trial.

Among the various ways to eat fish, steaming is indispensable.

Moreover, according to the concept of Cantonese cuisine, steaming is the best way to maintain the freshness and authenticity of the fish.

Ivan is no stranger to the practice of steamed fish, which is one of the home-cooked dishes in Guangdong, and many customers must order it.

However, Ivan intends to improve his approach slightly.

He already has a clear idea of the specific approach, and he also has the corresponding knowledge reserve.

"Xiao Wan, you are going to order shrimp dumplings. ”

"Xiao Cui, prepare the tofu. ”

Ivan began to command first.

Among the several dishes to be eaten at noon, because Dong Xiaowan and the others made steamed buns and dumplings in the morning, the shrimp slip and shrimp head juice are ready-made, and there is no need to toss the amount of food eaten by several people at noon.

And the squirrel fish is also ready-made, and Ivan only needs to process it later.

The only thing to do from start to finish is to steam the fish.

This work Ivan is ready to do it himself.

He started clicking and killing fish again.

Of course, the fish still has to be bled first.

The rough practice of patting his head and chopping his brain can no longer meet Ivan's requirements for perfection in food.

Different from the squirrel fish method, there is no need to chop the head and debone to make steamed fish, after killing the fish to remove the scales, gills and internal organs, only need to cut a few knives on the fish to make it evenly heated and easy to taste.

But there is one thing that must be done as well, and that is to marinate the fish.

Of course, the marinating method of steamed fish is completely different from that of squirrel fish.

The selection of steamed fish is very particular, it must be fresh and fresh cinnamon fish, it is best to kill it freshly, and it must be cooked within 30 minutes, otherwise, the fish will become stiff and the taste will not be delicious.

The meat quality of the osmanthus fish itself is very tender, fat and beautiful, so you should not put too much salt when marinating, and a small half spoon of salt is appropriate, because the taste is too heavy and will wipe out the deliciousness of the fish itself.

This is very different from the heavy salt sterilization of squirrel fish.

Also, for the marinade of steamed fish, cooking wine and vinegar must be added.

This is to get rid of the fishy smell of the fish.

For steamed fish, it is very important to remove the fishy smell.

If the fish is braised or fried, a large amount of seasoning will be added during the cooking process to remove the fish, so in the marinating process, the fishy removal is not so particular.

But steamed fish is different.

Steamed fish pays attention to the original flavor, rarely uses too much seasoning, and even if it is used, it is only a small amount, so the process of removing the smell must be worked on before steaming, otherwise, the steamed fish is too fishy to eat.

The reason why Ivan had to let blood first when killing fish is also the same reason.

However, this time Ivan is going to improve the common salting method of steamed fish.

For steamed fish, because it is necessary to pay attention to the original taste of the fish, only salt, cooking wine and vinegar are usually added to the marinade, of which salt is used to absorb the flavor and maintain the texture of the fish, and the role of cooking wine and vinegar is mainly to remove the smell and make the fish more tender.

What Ivan wanted to improve was to replace cooking wine with white wine.

Among most alcoholic beverages, wine is the only alkaline alcoholic beverage that can neutralize the large fish and meat, as well as rice and flour acidic foods that modern people eat every day, reduce bad cholesterol in the blood, and promote digestion.

Therefore, wine and fish are the best pairings, and white wine is a perfect pairing.

Ivan is now ready to marinate the fish in white wine.

With a flick of his hand, a bottle of white wine appeared in his hand.

Since he had enough points, the system space had become his treasure trove, and all kinds of ingredients that might be used were always available.

His hand is not strange to Dong Xiaowan, but for Fang Yizhi, who saw him for the first time, it is equivalent to a shock.

"This ...... This ......"

He was so shocked that he couldn't speak well.

It was impossible for him not to be surprised.

Forget about what appears suddenly, the key is the glass bottle that holds the wine.

Although the white wine that Ivan bought was just the most ordinary cheap imported Australian white wine, only a few dozen dollars a bottle, the glass bottle was very transparent and stylish, and there was an all-English trademark on it.

In terms of knowledge, Fang Yizhi, who has a rich family background, is of course stronger than Dong Xiaowan, and he can see at a glance that this is a high-grade glass bottle that is more precious than Baoyu.

No wonder Master doesn't care about his apprenticeship!

With this glass bottle alone, he couldn't afford to give such an apprenticeship.

"What, weird?"

Ivan was ready to go further and further on the road of pretending.

"It's ......"

Fang Yizhi pointed to the bottle in his hand.

"Glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine, have you ever heard of it?"

Ivan waved his hand, and a wine opener appeared in his hand again, and he began to open the bottle.

Fang Yizhi was shocked again.

This time, I was surprised by Ivan's miraculous technique.

He grabbed Ivan's hand as soon as he could: "Master, how did you do this?"

Ivan shook his hand away in disgust.

He's straight.

Do not bend.

"Western juggling. ”

"Magic?"

Fang Yizhi's voice sounded a little frightened.

Ivan knows why.

Since he had used magic as a shield, he naturally studied the relevant history.

Magic first originated in the West more than 4,000 years ago, but after the Middle Ages, magic fell into danger, because of the strong opposition of the Holy See, all magic that was not recognized by the Holy See was considered heretic and persecuted.

According to the other party, his understanding of the West came from the missionaries who came to the Ming Dynasty. In the mouth of the missionary, magic is naturally a flood beast.

"Why, you're scared? If you're scared, you can regret it. ”

To Ivan's surprise, Fang Yizhi took a deep breath, and then said, "Master, can you teach me this too?"

This was really unexpected by Ivan.

can't help but make him appreciate the other party's wisdom a little more.

Whether it is historical or modern, there are too many people in life who follow the clouds, and few people can insist on their own opinions and judgments.

Obviously, Fang Yizhi is one of the few people, and he is not gullible because of what the missionaries say.

He has his own judgment and discernment.

It's really rare.

This is a rare attitude of scientific rigor.

No wonder this guy can become a scientist in the late Ming Dynasty!

At least in terms of attitude, he has the ability to distinguish between right and wrong.

"It's not easy to learn, you won't be able to learn it for a while, and I won't teach it until you've learned anything else. ”

Ivan began to pretend again.

In fact, he didn't know magic at all, he couldn't teach it.

PS: Friends who like to cook, you can try this steamed fish in white wine, I feel that the taste should be good.
