Chapter Ninety-Three: It's Hot
After putting the beaten fish puree back into the stainless steel basin that had been rinsed, Xia Yanfei was pushed out by Yin Xiyue.
"Okay, I'll do it for you, if I continue like this, maybe I'll only have one task to put salt and pepper, so no, no."
The girl grunted and pushed him to the side.
At this point, the whole task is almost half completed, and the important thing is that it doesn't take much time at all, in fact, Xia Yanfei is still very grateful to this hard-working mixer, without it, it is estimated that the other dishes are done, and the middle step has not been completed.
Even though he stood aside, he couldn't just look at it.
Unable to stay idle in the kitchen, he came up with the idea of that piece of pork belly, and he pinched it, it was very fresh, and it was perfect for braising it.
The first task is to wash it, and that's no problem.
Xia Yanfei was rinsing this piece of pork belly under the water pipe, and Yin Xiyue on the side had already added water to the pot and watched it slowly appear small bubbles.
The rustling outside the window had not stopped, and through the glass, the raindrops that were still not exhausted hit it, and then turned into a thin stream and cut down, leaving many irregular water marks, which were immediately picked up by the companions behind them.
The sky outside had completely darkened due to the dual reasons of getting late and the already dark rain, and the figures of the two people could be clearly reflected on the glass at this time.
In the background is a somewhat lively kitchen, and the girl looks at the glass thoughtfully.
Quietly, she shifted her steps, then tilted her head, looking from the side as if she were leaning on his shoulder.
This scene seemed familiar, and Yin Xiyue couldn't help but think of the subway and the time at the secret base at noon today.
I've already relied on it twice, so why is it just a ghost, or so attractive?
"Girl, the water is boiling."
The familiar voice made the girl pay attention to the pot in front of her that she didn't know when it had been churning, and when she saw the curious eyes of the figure in the reflection, she quickly recovered from the state just now.
"Just now...... I lost my mind when I watched the rain. Yin Xiyue put the basin in her hand, and then turned her face away a little.
After relieving herself, she began to work on the fish balls.
The process is as simple as putting the beaten fish puree in your hand, letting it squeeze out of the tiger's mouth, then removing the right size of the fish balls and putting them in boiling water, the fish balls will be shaped in the pot and eventually float honestly.
Yin Xiyue knows very well how to do it, but in fact, there is a little problem, that is, her hands are a little small, she can't hold so many fish and meat puree at one time, and it is easy to cause them to leak out of the gap when she exerts force.
The girl, who has always been very confident in her cooking skills, is in trouble.
Just after she put a crooked ball into the water, Xia Yanfei, who had wiped his hands, happened to come over, he swore that he just wanted to learn the technique, and there was absolutely no idea of watching the excitement.
As a result, when he walked in front of him, looking at Yin Xiyue's clumsy appearance, he couldn't help but be a little happy.
"Girl, do you want me to come?" Xia Yanfei asked out loud.
"Don't."
The girl shook her head stubbornly, and firmly rejected his suggestion, even though she knew that it would work if she let him come.
Seeing that her little hands were accidentally stained with a little snow-white fish puree, like the paws of a little flower cat, Xia Yanfei sighed, it's not that he doesn't want this girl to continue to do it, but if he can't do it, he can actually think differently, right?
If our hand rubbing is not so smooth, we can use tools.
He turned around and took a spoon, then handed it to Yin Xiyue and shook it in front of her.
"Try it, it's like digging an ice cream ball, the focus is on the action, and it also prevents you from accidentally getting burned by hot water."
That's right. He also noticed that the girl's movements were a bit risky, even if she gently put it along the edge of the pot to avoid any splashing as much as possible, but in the end he still used his hands to get close to the boiling water, and he didn't want her to get hurt.
When he was a child, he was not sensible, when he was in his hometown, his grandmother rarely used the stove to make rice cakes once during the New Year, and he happily touched the orange flame that looked very energetic with his hand, although it only touched it for a short time of 0.01 seconds, but it made him grin for several days, and he had to add a criticism from Xia Dad.
Since then, he has been unusually careful with anything above his body temperature, not touching it if he can, and in the kitchen, he has replaced it with tools as much as possible.
Humans are very good at using tools.
When he saw this girl's movements, he was ready to let her change the spoon.
Yin Xiyue looked at the few lonely little balls in the pot, plus the not-so-cute shapes, looked at him again, and finally took the spoon.
With the help of a round spoon, the girl quickly turned the fish puree in the basin into balls, which seemed to be a bit of a fly in the ointment, that is, they became very flat.
However, the shape is not enough, and the size is to make up.
These fat balls are quite big, and compared with the previous brothers, they are really a lot rounder.
"It's so fragrant, the taste of the fish has been cooked."
Seeing these white and chubby balls floating around in the boiling water, rolling under the surface of the water, Xia Yanfei, who snorted, said in surprise.
Yin Xiyue added a little spice to the beaten fish puree to process them, and the fresh flavor of the fish balls burst out happily after being stimulated by the boiling water.
The cat's desire for this freshly baked fish ball is also very understandable, and thanks to the strong power of the blender, even if the silver carp has some tiny bones, it is almost broken.
"It looks a little weird, but I'm confident in its texture and taste."
Yin Xiyue said proudly while using a colander to pluck the fish balls that were squeezed together by the flow of water.
Standing in front of the steaming pot of boiling water, her little face was flushed with steaming water, and the white hair on her forehead was stuck to her forehead because of some sweat.
But her eyes were still taking care of the pot very seriously, and she didn't even have time to care about the few hairs hanging down dishonestly in her ears.
The air conditioning is on in the house, but since the kitchen has to deal with fire or other heating things, the temperature here is always on the high side, and the cold air from the air conditioning is not very effective.
The rain outside was still hitting the glass of the window with the wind, and it was not wise to open the window.
Xia Yanfei looked at it for two seconds, and then quietly walked into the bathroom, there was only a towel here, neatly folded and placed on the shelf, and he didn't have to worry about taking it wrong.
Turning on the faucet and wetting it with warm water, Xia Yanfei did it while hoping in her heart that this girl wouldn't mind touching her towel.
He definitely washed it with hand sanitizer first, and even washed it a second time without worrying.
