Chapter 54: The Golden Beggar Chicken
"Miss, what are you going to cook?" Angelica couldn't help but ask curiously, and Qiu Tian smiled mysteriously, "Wait a minute, you can help me sort out the ingredients first." ”
She asked Angelica to follow her to the ingredient table where the ingredients were stored, and looked at the ingredients and ingredients.
After a long time, she didn't know what she was going to do, and she couldn't help but sigh.
When it comes to chicken dishes, she makes hundreds of dishes, and the flavors are not similar.
But now, it is said that he is the best dish to cook, but he is good at it, and the Tao is ordinary.
Just as she was hesitating and at a loss, the angelica beside her exclaimed in shock, "Huh?! ”
"This is red dirt?"
Qiu Tian followed Angelica's voice and looked at the wet red clay bricks of red clay she was referring to, "Huh?!" ”
"Miss, you see that the head of the imperial dining room is really fooling, and he actually took red clay to save the ingredients."
"Red clay ......" she twisted the red clay curiously, but the next second she couldn't help but light up in her eyes, "It's the best red clay!" ”
Suddenly, a famous dish flashed in her mind, and she quickly took all the ingredients needed for that dish and put them in a basket like angelica, "It's done!" ”
Angelica saw that there were only onions, carrots, potatoes, and a handful of unknown but spicy small beans in the basket, and asked curiously: "Miss, have you thought of what to do?" ”
"Beggar's chicken!"
"Beggar's chicken?!" For a moment, Angelica was puzzled, "What is a beggar chicken?" ”
"We call it the beggar chicken, and in other places we call it the flower chicken." Qiu Tian rolled up her sleeves and moved her wrist, "And what I'm going to do today is an improved version of the beggar's chicken." ”
"What about the improved beggar chicken?" Angelica looked up at Qiu Tian curiously, Qiu Tian smiled at the corner of his mouth, and let his bangs cover his eyes, "Golden beggar chicken!" ”
Angelica saw Qiu Tian cut the basic ingredients of green onion, ginger and garlic, quickly shelled the black shell shrimp, sliced the ham, chopped a small piece of pork into a meat puree, and then poured the black shell shrimp shrimp, ham slices, and pork foam into a small wooden basin, and then poured in a small spoon of cooking wine, two teaspoons of salt, half a spoon of sugar, a spoonful of starch, half a spoon of soy sauce and two teaspoons of oyster sauce, and then sprinkled with granular spicy and spicy spices. Qiu Tian was so tired that her forehead was sweating at this time, and Angelica intimately wiped her forehead, "Miss, are you making shrimp cakes?" ”
Angelica recalled the shrimp cakes that Qiu Tian fried for himself last time, and couldn't help licking his dry lips, but Qiu Tian flicked his head, "This is just the invagination of the beggar chicken in the environment." ”
"Hmm......" Simply asked the flat mouth, frowning and looking at the basin inverted, and Xiaoshizi took all the cleaned chickens to Qiu Tian at this moment, "Miss, the chickens have been taken care of, and the slave will go and throw away the chicken offal now, so as not to smell the small kitchen." ”
"Wait!" Qiu Tian watched the three big yellow chickens being processed cleanly, and nodded with great satisfaction, "Find out the chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, chicken intestines, chicken intestines, and chicken livers in the chicken offal, and after they are clear and clean, give them to me after three times with salt." ”
"Miss, some chicken organs are smelly, fishy and can't be put on the table, why do you have to process them like this?" Xiao Shizi was carrying a wooden barrel containing chicken offal, but Qiu Tian frowned, signaling him to listen to his own arrangement, he nodded helplessly, "Minion, do it now." ”
"Miss, what can those things do?" Angelica helped Qiu Tian soak the dried lotus leaves, watched curiously as she picked up a small big yellow chicken, simply passed it with hot and cold water, filled the inset into the chicken's chest, and finally sealed the entrance with a toothpick, and then positioned the chicken head on the chicken body.
Afterwards, Qiu Tian spreads the sauce prepared in advance with soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar and salt on the chicken province, sprinkles with powder such as star anise, pepper and cloves, and sets it aside to marinate.
In just a moment of incense, a three-yellow chicken with a burnt yellow color stood up in front of her, "Miss, you're too fast!" ”
"It's not fast!" Qiu Tian gasped lightly, compared to before they were together, she could speed up.
She took out the lotus leaf that had been soaked in the basin for a long time and spread it on the table, and then she smeared a layer of sesame oil on the top of the lotus leaf, and placed three yellow chickens in it, and dotted it with small carrot flowers, potato cut into pieces, small mushrooms opened in a few bites, and chopped onions.
"Angelica, bring that moist red dirt here." Qiu Tian folded the lotus leaves there while instructing, tied them with white threads, and after wrapping them three times in this process, she finally wrapped the red clay that Angelica had just brought over and carefully wrapped it, Angelica was confused, but she didn't dare to ask more.
"Angelica, let a bonfire be lit outside the pebble."
"Miss, this slave is in good hands."
Qiu Tian raised his head and looked at Angelica in a slightly unexpected way, "Okay!" Then try to get as much xylose as you can, and try to burn it with lychee wood. ”
"Lychee wood?" Angelica frowned, and casually picked up the firewood from the firewood pile, "Is this the case?" ”
Qiu Tian looked at Angelica's wood holding the cedar, shook his head, walked to the lychee wood, smoked a stick of rough and ugly lychee wood, and shook it towards her, "This kind!" ”
"Whew!" Angelica suddenly repressed and understood, and took a handful of the lychee wood in Qiu Tian's hand, "The slave is now going to use this wood to make a fire." ”
Qiu Tian looked at the sudden resolute Angelica, and thought for a while, but he didn't want Xiaoshizi to appear with the cleaned chicken offal at this moment.
"Miss, it's all clean!" Xiaoshizi poured the chicken offal into a new clean wooden basin, and Qiu Tian just put the prepared beggar chicken in the wooden barrel, waiting for Angelica to come back and call himself.
"Okay!" Qiu Tian looked at the chicken offal in the wooden basin, and couldn't help but think of the spicy chicken offal, and couldn't help chewing his mouth.
"Pebble, prepare the onions, ginger and garlic to cut off, and then cut some yellow and red peppers for me." Qiu Tian thought for a moment, "If you can, you can also cook the white rice." ”
"After that's done, I'll teach you how to cook a dish that is very famous in a certain place." Qiu Tian took a kitchen knife to cut the chicken heart in half, she looked at Xiaoshizi stunned in place, "Why are you stunned?" Sharpen your hands and feet! ”
"Yes!" Xiaoshizi hurriedly dried the rice, washed the rice, and boiled the rice, and quickly processed the ingredients such as onions, ginger and garlic.
Qiu Tian looked at Xiao Shizi's face full of doubts, "If you have anything you want to ask, hurry up and ask!" ”
"Miss, why do you want to teach me how to make chicken offal?" Xiao Shizi did not hesitate, but asked frankly, "Is it difficult, aren't you afraid that the apprentices of the church will starve to death the master?" ”
"Huh!" Qiu Tian couldn't help but look at Xiaoshizi with a smile, "It's hard to guard against thieves day and night, even if I don't teach you, you won't be able to learn secretly." ”
"That's too!" Xiao Shizi nodded in agreement, Qiu Tian was amused by Xiao Shizi's state, "What's more, you will, you can help me do more things in the future." And ......"
"And?" Xiao Shizi looked at Qiu Tian, Qiu Tian raised his eyebrows and pointed to his head, "I have thousands of different dishes here, dishes with different styles and different tastes, enough for you to learn for a lifetime." ”
"Miss!" Xiao Shizi was stunned for a moment, but knelt on the ground the next moment, "Thank you Miss for not disliking the slave, the slave implores Miss to let the slave become your apprentice!" ”
"It's not going to work!" Qiu Tian refused directly.
"Miss!"
"My identity doesn't allow it."
"Also, Miss has a noble status, how can she live in the kitchen all day long, and how can she let a slave become an apprentice?" Xiao Shizi understood the matter and nodded in disappointment, "It's the slave who is bold." ”
"I don't like you to engage in these cooking factions, can't it be that a good cook can only cook one faction dish for the rest of his life?" While asking Xiaoshizi, she put the chicken offal in a pot of warm water, and boiled it with green onions, ginger, garlic, star anise, bay leaves, Sichuan pepper, sesame pepper, and cooking wine to remove the taste.
Xiao Shizi fell into deep thought about Qiu Tian's question, and Qiu Tian held back a glance at Xiao Shizi who was deep in thought, but she felt that she had asked this question too early, and it would form the embarrassing scene now.
Suddenly, the whole small kitchen became silent, Qiu Tian thought that even the sound of falling needles would be heard now, and the sound of firewood burning on the stove and the "beep" sound of cooking rice were mixed together, which seemed to be a bit lively.
She was slightly annoyed and scooped up the chicken offal after boiling water and put it into the cold water river, after a simple cleaning, she scooped up and drained the water, and prepared to transfer the prepared ingredients to the stove, she just put it down, Xiaoshizi suddenly raised his head and stared at him intently, "Miss, you are right!" Cooking skills are not separated, and the chef can't worship the master, so he restricts himself from cooking various dishes, so that people can feel warm and happy. ”
"Minion, I finally know why the dishes that I also learned from Miss made lacked not seasonings or cooking techniques, but the original intention."
Qiu Tian was startled by Xiaoshizi's confession, but when he heard her so conscious, he felt that he was teachable.
Xiaoshizi secretly learned and did secretly, she turned a blind eye, and even slowed down the speed of blending the flavor so that he could remember.
"It's good to understand." She pretended to be mature and nodded, "The next thing to do is spicy chicken offal, are you ready?" ”
Xiaoshizi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, Qiu Tian suddenly moved the bellows, and in an instant, the whole stove was ignited, and the flames rushed up arrogantly, and even drilled out through the cracks, but Qiu Tian was not afraid, she saw that the hot pot had burned to a red fire, so she quickly poured in solid lard, "Zizi-"
The milky white lard instantly melted like snowflakes, and the slightest wisps of oil fragrance were volatilized, and Qiu Tian suddenly thought that if lard and fine lard residue were poured on top of the white rice tonight, the taste would be unique.
"Miss, the oil is hot!" Xiaoshizi cautiously reminded Qiu Tian, and Qiu Tian was stunned to find that the oil was already hot to smoke.
