【68】Another wonderful use of table salt!
"Grilled minc?"
Wang Xi was stunned, and the group of spirit chefs sitting on the side all looked a little strange.
Everyone knows that among these people, the strength of roasted wild millet is definitely Wang Xi in front of Luo Xiu...... He's an absolute expert at roasting wild millet.
"Oh, Shopkeeper Xiao Luo, are you going to challenge me?"
Wang Xi smiled as he spoke: "Then I want to take a good look at what you are going to do with your roasted wild millet!"
"Cooked minc, barbecue, but it will be very old!"
"Moreover, you have been cut into pieces, and the meat has become less complete......"
Wang Xi said there, because of time, the wild mince meat was already a little cold, so ...... The spirituality on the surface is all dissipated or absorbed.
It's exactly like a normal piece of meat.
"Cooked minced pork, grilled...... It shouldn't taste good, right?"
"Yes, this little guy, how did you get out of cooked wild minced meat?"
"How weird?"
Countless people also saw the quality of the meat on Luo Xiu's hand, which was clearly a piece of cooked wild minced meat.
"You think I'm willing to roast cooked meat?"
Luo Xiu complained in his heart, it's not that your baby son's level is not at home?!
However, Luo Xiu didn't explain much, he stood in front of the desk and took out a few Hu Hua Guo.
This Hu Hua Guo is the fruit of Hu Hua Cao, Luo Xiu has tasted the taste, it is the same as pepper, it seems that this should be the pepper of the food world.
Swish!
Putting it into a small cup of special characteristics, Luo Xiu began to crush the hu huaguo.
Ground into powder, which becomes pepper.
The effect of pepper is much better than that of the crumbs of the flowers, which are only used to make soup in this world, and the crumbs of the flowers and grasses used in cooking and barbecue are actually much worse than the crumbs of the flowers and grasses that are actually crushed into powder.
"Is this a powder?
"Yes, it's very pungent, and there is no fragrance of flowers and plants at all......"
"If this is baked, you can't choke your nose?"
A group of spirit chefs gathered in front of Luo Xiu, and they couldn't help but whisper when they saw him crushing Hu Huaguo.
Wang Xi watched there, but a trace of thought flashed in his eyes.
Luo Xiu quickly grinded out the "pepper", and then took out the "umbrella fragrant fruit", a fine spice with a sharp tip like a small umbrella.
Click!
Luo Xiu crushed again, and this time...... Everyone couldn't help but nod.
Umbrella fragrant fruit, which is the main ingredient for boiling large meat, is very spicy and twisted into powder...... But there is a very strong tangy fragrance, which is the most commonly used spice in the food continent.
And on the earth, in fact, this fruit is also very common.
Cumin!
Saying that cumin is too professional, it has a very popular name after being crushed - cumin!
Luo Xiu had tasted all the spices in the kitchen in the morning, and found that many of them were common to the earth, such as the umbrella fragrant fruit, Hu Hua Cao, rosemary, etc., almost all of which could be found on the earth.
Rosemary is mint, and matsutake mushrooms are mustard!
I have to say that the spices of the food continent are indeed popular, and they rely on these spices to make the food fragrant and arouse a strong appetite.
With the addition of spirituality and ingredients, the taste is ...... It's in a league of its own.
That's an advantage.
However, in fact, the combination of many spices is exquisite and scientific...... The continent of food, but it relies on the experience of a chef.
Experience and scientific research can only be said to have advantages and disadvantages of each other.
And Luo Xiu, who is obviously proficient in experience and science, is so he can combine the two and become the strongest generation of kitchen gods on the planet!
......
After preparing all kinds of spices, Luo Xiu rolled up his sleeves and began to cook in real time.
Smack!
Strips of neatly cut wild mince meat were placed on the table.
Luo Xiu picked up the table salt and sprinkled it on it.
As soon as the salt came out, it suddenly made countless spirit chefs' eyes widen: "Hey, what is this?"
"Salt!"
Wang Xi stood up at this time, and explained with a smile: "This is a spice invented by the shopkeeper Luo, but this salt is very strange, there is no fragrance, only salty, and ...... It's the kind of saltiness that is extremely salty!"
"How do you eat it?"
The crowd was amazed.
Wang Xi saw that Luo Xiu was rolling wild minced meat and smearing table salt, but he brought the three seasonings to the spirit chefs.
"Taste it, it's very special!"
Salt, MSG and shellac crystals, Wang Xi took some of them and handed them to everyone.
At this moment, the entire nine-story building suddenly became lively.
"Phew, it's so salty......"
"Well, this little thing, it's so sweet, delicious!"
"Fresh, actually...... And with such a concentrated taste, how did you do that?"
A group of people looked at Wang Xi blankly, Wang Xi smiled: "It's weird, I tasted it for the first time, and I was quite surprised, such a concentrated crystal, in fact, when it is turned into water, there is not much saltiness at all, but ...... There will be a salty and salty taste that will make the body feel very comfortable!"
"Yes, yes, I think so too!"
"This spice is amazing!"
"Pure taste, huh?"
The spirit chefs were full of wonders, but a holy chef couldn't help but say when he watched Luo Xiu keep sprinkling salt: "But if you sprinkle like this, there is no water, this meat will be very salty, right?!"
"No, because I'm ...... Marinated!"
Luo Xiu didn't raise his head and threw out a technical term.
"Pickled?"
Everyone was collectively confused, what is pickling?!
Salt, one of the five major tastes, is the basis of saltiness.
However, in addition to seasoning, the ancient Chinese gave salt another meaning - food processing!
Soaking the meat in salted water before cooking allows the meat to be rich in moist moisture and maintain its juicy texture even throughout the cooking process.
Because the salt molecules have a diffusion effect, they move from high concentrations to low concentrations.
"You don't sweat?"
Luo Xiu suddenly raised his head and threw out a question.
He had sprinkled all the wild minced meat in front of him with table salt, and the meat looked watery and full of water.
At this time, he needs to let it sit for a while, and then sprinkle pepper, so he has time to explain the problem of pickling to the spirit cooks.
"Sweaty? must all be out......"
A spirit chef said, Luo Xiu nodded: "What about sweating?"
"Sweating?"
"Absorb sweat, after the human body is cold, will it absorb sweat?"
"Yes, it will absorb sweat!"
"You absorb sweat, and there is nothing abnormal in your body, and sweat can quickly penetrate into the bottom layer of your muscles to keep your body hydrated!"
Just now, Luo Xiu salted the meat, in fact, in the final analysis, the same principle as human sweating, is to keep the meat fresh.
The absorption of salt by the human body is actually the same as maintaining the absolute freshness of the flesh and the electrolyte balance...... It's the same thing!
"Next, it's time to apply pepper!"
In fact, Luo Xiu's process is to ...... the quality of the meat Sprinkle with salt and pepper for better flavor.
But because there is no salt and pepper in this gastronomic continent, he can only smear salt first, and then pepper, which has achieved the effect of salt and pepper.
The spirit chefs were stunned, obviously shocked by the question thrown by Luo Xiu.
Keeping the meat hydrated?
Salt...... How can it still have such an effect?!
