Chapter 4: Eight Treasure Porridge (I)
"My sister, can you be healed by food therapy?"
Cao Kun, who had a big waist and a round waist, asked urgently.
"Yesβ"
Jiang Yi nodded, but his tone changed, "However, the improvement of physical fitness takes time to recuperate. β
Cao Kun jumped like thunder, and his eyes turned red suddenly: "It's time again, time, it takes time! My sister is delicate, her symptoms are getting worse and worse, and she can only drink gruel in the last few days.
The roar shook the Medicinal Restaurant as if it had thundered.
Su Cairou came up, pulled Jiang Yi to the corner, and persuaded in a low voice: "I know you have the ability, but don't interfere in this matter, the Cao brothers and sisters are my guests, and I will receive them." β
"That's not going to work. Jiang Yi shook his head, touched his lower abdomen, and felt the stomach pouch filled with warm food.
"I have to pay back this meal. β
"The grace of a meal!"
He didn't look at the stunned Su Cairou, and shouted to the angry Cao Kun: "Hey, big man, your sister's stubborn illness is not a dead knot, she is delicate, I know, she has no appetite, glass stomach, can't eat food other than gruel, I also know." β
"This first step is to let your sister eat, and it is also a medicinal diet that protects the stomach and spleen and is beneficial to her body. β
"At the same time, this medicinal diet must also provide a lot of calories and protein needed by the human body!
Syllable!
Cao Kun threw a bag of tips on the dining table, and a crisp sound spread.
The silk rope at the mouth of the bag was loosened, and there were three transparent gems like night pearls, revealing a corner, and the light was breathtaking.
"This is the birthday gift I am going to give my father for his fiftieth birthday, three shark beads, a thousand gold!" Cao Kun grabbed one of the shark beads in his hand, "You can let my sister open her mouth to eat, temporarily recover her vitality, this shark bead will be used as a deposit for you to recuperate, if my sister's spleen and stomach disease has improved significantly after a month, there are two shark beads left, I will come to the door and offer it with both hands!"
"That's why I like Shenhao the most!" Jiang Yi gave a thumbs up.
This is true, the local tyrant diner shakes his hand is a lot of money, who doesn't love it. The so-called gentleman loves money and takes it from the way. Traveling through another world, the breeze comes with two sleeves, and if you don't rely on cooking skills to earn money, will you continue to beg on the streets?
Jiang Yi turned around and winked at Su Cairou, "Little sister, I have a proposal, you make your "Corn and Pumpkin Porridge", and I will also make my medicinal food, which will be served on the table together and eaten by Miss Cao Ying herself." β
This is Jiang Yi's shrewdness, he is already suspected of dominating the crowd, for the sake of the Su sisters' favorability, there should always be a strategy method.
Su Cairou understood Jiang Yi's inner little Jiujiu, angry and funny.
She is a chef and a healer, and she is benevolent, if Jiang Yi's medicinal diet can regulate Cao Ying's body that is about to wither, she will not be happy and worship, how can she be ashamed.
Jiang Yi went to the yard, swept the medicinal materials that were placed everywhere to dry, and said secretly: "Just pick the materials from them!"
Just right.
Tasks and events are handled together.
Didn't the initial system let him take a strange and novel ingredient and cook delicious food, Jiang Yi had actually locked the target.
Until the previous "cornucopia", this time Jiang Yi took a bath, changed into clean clothes, and picked up a handful of rice grains in his hand, and exclaimed while observing carefully, ", this is the real pearl rice, one is a mini version of the pearl." β
As soon as he held the rice in his hand, he trembled violently.
"Ingredient Identification ......"
"The information gathering is complete. β
"Small Spiritual Rice": Spiritual rice grown by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth in another world, belonging to a kind of glutinous rice, with an aura index of 0.1. β
Jiang Yi was secretly shocked.
Su Cairou was puzzled beside him, "What's wrong?"
"You usually eat this kind of rice?"
A laugh came, and Su's sister Su Cailing covered her mouth: "Little beggar, it seems that before you beg, your family background is good, how can ordinary people eat this kind of spiritual rice every day, my sister opened a medicinal diet restaurant, if you want to live the quality of medicinal food, spiritual rice is the most basic material." β
Cao Kun, a big man like a black bear, said in a muffled voice: "There are nine dishes in the dishes, one is the top, and the ninth is the bottom. If you don't use Lingmi to boil, I'm afraid that the medicinal diet can't even reach the nine grades, and it will be the quality of ordinary people's home-cooked food. β
Hearing this, Jiang Yi's eyes sparkled.
Since there are ingredients for "aura", he is more sure of Cao Ying's stubborn spleen and stomach disease.
This "small spiritual rice" is glutinous rice.
The glutinous rice was available, Jiang Yi continued to look for other materials, and after a while, there were small mountain-like ingredients piled up on the dustpan.
There are almonds, there are peanuts.
There are lotus seeds in the shell, and there are untreated chestnuts.
When Jiang Yi looked up again, Su Cairou was nowhere to be seen, and a busy voice came from the other end of the kitchen, presumably she was cooking 'corn and pumpkin porridge'. However, Su Cailing, who was younger, lively and lovely, carefully counted the materials on the dustpan: "Glutinous rice, almonds, lotus seeds, chestnuts, peanuts, red dates, red beans, oh oh, and longan...... There are 8 ingredients, it's so complicated!"
Cao Kuntou gave a suspicious look, and this little look clearly said: Boy, are you sure it's not a pot of stew?
From the expressions and reactions of the two, Jiang Yi affirmed one thing.
Ha?
With such a simple and easy-to-understand combination of ingredients, they didn't even see what kind of porridge I was cooking?
Babao porridge originates from 'Laba', and rich families use at least dozens of bean and fruit materials to cook Laba porridge on Laba Day. Glutinous rice, peanuts, and red dates are the most common......
Jiang Yi tapped his forehead, "Yes, it's a different world, the calendar is different, there is no Laba custom, eight-treasure porridge or something, naturally it is not as popular and popular as in the previous life." β
He didn't dwell too much.
If not, there will be no one, and when he boils the 'Eight Treasure Porridge', won't the recipe be born in another world?
Be a porter of delicious food and recipes.
Let Su Cailing help bring a very heavy copper pot, and there is a ready-made open-air stove in the yard, made of green bricks. According to the Su sisters, the Lingmi does not need to be processed too much, and it is simply cleaned and put it first. Jiang Yi threw the 'red beans' that had been screened into the copper pot, and then filled it with water.
It seems to be a pot of stewed 'laba porridge', and the steps for putting ingredients should be clearly defined.
'Red adzuki beans' should be put into the pot first and boiled.
It is also called red beans, and red beans, there is only one word difference, but the characteristics of the ingredients are quite different.
Red beans are easy to boil and have a soft taste after cooking, so they are often used to make 'red bean paste' and 'red bean syrup'.
On the contrary, red adzuki beans are hard if they are cooked for a long time.
Therefore, glutinous rice should be ranked second, wait for the 'red adzuki beans' to be boiled in clear water until about 5 years are ripe, and then add glutinous rice.
In the gap between boiling, Jiang Yi was not idle.
Chestnuts are shelled, but a layer of skin on the surface of chestnut meat is very difficult to handle, in the previous life, there were refrigerators, microwave ovens, air fryers and other modern kitchen equipment, this layer of skin is easy to peel off, Jiang Yi has always paid attention to efficiency, black eyes, turned, there is a way.
"Help me get a pot of hot waterβ" shouted to Su Cailing.
The girl was not annoyed when she was pulled to be a cook, she ran away with a smile, and brought back a pot full of hot water when she returned.
This porcelain pot is not deep, Jiang Yi will peel off the chestnuts, pour all into the pot, and then, take a chopstick, stir slightly, then drain the water, hang the pot upside down, and the chestnuts fall into the big bowl.
"Wow!"
Su Cailing exclaimed.
The chestnut meat piled up in the bowl, the unsightly skin was stripped clean, smooth, so smooth and round.
Cao Kun also looked at him in surprise, and Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
With a good understanding of the ingredients, chefs can always find ways to simplify the handling steps, improve efficiency and save time.
This small method needs to be noted that chestnuts can not be soaked in boiling water for too long, it will be done in a while, and after a long time, the nutrients of chestnuts will be destroyed.
