Chapter 5: Try your hand at it

After Qin Yu washed his hands, he stood in front of the cutting board, today he was just going to try his skills and cook some home-cooked food, one is because his body has shrunk to fifteen years old, and his strength has become smaller and he needs to adapt again, and the other is because the big dish takes time and requires a lot of materials, and some materials are estimated to be in the food continent, after all, there are differences between the plants of the two worlds.

So what to cook at home?

Qin Yu's gaze swept over, there were quite a lot of spices, but there were fewer than he imagined, and there were a few things he didn't even recognize. When his eyes swept over the washed potatoes, his eyes lit up: "There you have it, sour and hot shredded potatoes!"

Why choose hot and sour shredded potatoes? Because the shredded sour and hot potatoes use less ingredients, but they are particularly delicious to eat, and they are low in calories, contain more potassium, and are rich in vitamins, which is especially suitable for winter consumption.

Moreover, there are few fresh vegetables in winter, potatoes are the easiest to store, have high yield, and are not easy to deteriorate, which is a must-have for the common people to spend winter from ancient times to the present.

Don't underestimate the sour and spicy shredded potatoes because of their simplicity, it is a classic dish in Sichuan cuisine, well-known and loved by diners.

On the other hand, it is not easy to fry the hot and sour shredded potatoes, the knife work, the heat, and the amount of materials used, the taste will be damaged if you don't control it well, different people will fry it, there will be different tastes, and even the same chef will fry it, there will be subtle differences, of course, ordinary tongues can't taste it, only the tongue of a gourmand can distinguish it.

The plan has been decided, Qin Yu did not touch the knife just now, but chose a relatively heavy kitchen knife, he is used to using heavy knives, which is quite good for exercising wrist strength.

Murong De and Murong Fu both came over curiously, wanting to see how many catties and taels Qin Yu had, they were both very experienced chefs, and Qin Yu's ability could be judged from the details, when they saw Qin Yu choosing a heavy knife, they couldn't help frowning, this knife weighed two catties, and Qin Yu's small wrist could play it?

Qin Yu had already devoted himself to it, subconsciously shook his hand and turned the kitchen knife in the palm of his hand three times, took a washed potato and began to slice it.

The father and son looked at each other again, Qin Yu's action of turning the kitchen knife just now could not be done by ordinary chefs, it required years of experience, enthusiasm for kitchen knives, and extraordinary courage.

If you accidentally cut your hand, the chef's career will end here, so it is also called "chopping hands to knives", not many people dare to try, and even fewer people can easily get it.

However, the surprise has just begun, Qin Yu's slicing speed is too fast, the force of the knife is very heavy, but it does not affect the speed at all, the aggressive sound is endless, and after three breaths, a potato is sliced.

"Daddy, look, the potato chips are all the same!" Murong Xue forgot to be angry, her eyes widened and her tone was full of surprise, with her knife skills, she could also cut it evenly, but the speed was incomparable to Qin Yu.

Murong De and Murong Fu shook their heads, letting Murong Xue not make a sound, and the two of them were also surprised in their hearts, it is not difficult to cut evenly, but it is even more difficult to cut evenly so quickly, in addition to rich experience, it also requires wonderful control, but Qin Yu is only fifteen years old, where did he get such skills?

Qin Yu had no distractions, sliced three large potatoes in a row, and then began to shred them at a faster speed, and the aggressive sound was connected into one piece, and the flickering cold light on the knife surface almost pulled out the afterimage.

"Oh my God, the speed has increased again, and each one can still be so even, such a powerful knife work!" Murong Fu opened his mouth and stammered, even when his right hand was intact, he would definitely not be able to do it.

"Fortunately, there is no thunder, otherwise I really doubt that he is the heir of the Lei family. Murong De's face was extremely serious.

Murong Xue snorted: "Daddy, do you mean the Lei family's sword technique 'Thousand Cuts Thunder'?"

Murong De nodded solemnly: "That's right, it is the 'Thousand Cut Thunder' that ranks seventh in the Nine Peerless Knife Workers, and when you cultivate this knife work, the speed of the knife is like thunder and lightning, and it will produce an electric and light vision, and it will make a crackling sound, and if you cultivate to the highest level, it can even trigger thunder, so it is called Thousand Cut Thunder." ”

"Then ...... him" Murong Fu pointed at Qin Yu, and the meaning was self-evident.

Murong De shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, his sword speed is completely practiced, and it has nothing to do with the Thousand Cutting Thunder, if he can rest and cultivate the Thousand Cutting Thunder, it is estimated that the Lei family will have to bow their heads and admit defeat." ”

After the three of them said a few words, Qin Yu not only finished cutting the potatoes, but also cut the dried red peppers, as well as the onions, ginger and garlic and other accessories, all the shredded potatoes seemed to be copied, except for the difference in length, the thickness was almost exactly the same, at least the naked eye could not tell the difference.

Soak the shredded potatoes in water, Qin Yu immediately began to pour oil in a hot pot, stir-fry with peppercorns, stir-fry the pot with green onions, ginger and garlic, and then put the shredded potatoes and stir-fry, not a strong wrist, but can control the wok with ease, the pale yellow shredded potatoes flew up and down with the flames, and the tempting aroma came to the face, drilling into people's nostrils like elves, hooking out all the gluttonous insects.

"It's so fragrant!" Murong Xue swallowed her saliva, her father couldn't cook in the past two years, and it was rare for the kitchen to be so fragrant, this is the taste that the kitchen should have.

"I often fry shredded potatoes, but why is it not as fragrant as him?" Murong Fu lowered his head and pondered.

"What a skillful skill, is he really only fifteen years old?" Murong De exclaimed.

Finally, add shredded red pepper, chopped green onion, salt, sugar, and stir-fry for a while, and the delicious sour and hot shredded potatoes are officially out of the pot.

"Okay, but it's a pity that there is no chicken essence, and there is a fly in the ointment. Qin Yu shook his head, he didn't seem to be completely satisfied, he didn't find chicken essence in the seasoning, but it's normal to think about it, not to mention chicken essence, monosodium glutamate was discovered by the Japanese in modern times, ancient people usually used broth, and the food continent belonged to ancient times, how could there be monosodium glutamate or chicken essence?

"Chicken essence, what is it?" Murong Xue blinked wide, curious about this unfamiliar word.

"Well, nothing. Qin Yu smiled awkwardly, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, he didn't know if he could make chicken essence in the super food system, he remembered that there was a manufacturing room in the menu, and there was also a food mall, it shouldn't be difficult to get some chicken essence, right?

Remove from the pan, serve on the plate, and when the last shredded potato falls into the plate, something strange happens!

I saw that the colorful sour and hot potato shreds actually emitted a faint white millilight, which emanated from each vegetable, and did not spread, but condensed into a bunch that rose first and climbed to two inches before stopping.

"Food!" Murong De, Murong Fu, and Murong Xue exclaimed in unison, their expressions were quite exaggerated, they didn't expect that Qin Yu casually fried a plate of home-cooked food, and actually condensed the spirit qi of eating!

Although it is only two inches, its significance is extraordinary, which means that this dish has been affirmed by the rules of the food continent, and it will definitely be grabbed by bidding.
