Steamed duck with wine is a classic dish.

How to make it......

Well, the original method, supposedly lost.

Xiao Nianzhi's current practice is also improved in later generations, I don't know how many versions, and everyone thinks it is not bad after eating, it is more popular.

Duck meat is a bit fishier than chicken.

Therefore, when it comes to fishiness, you need to pay special attention.

Blanching is only the most basic, blanching this step, not only to add onions, ginger and garlic to remove the fishy, but also to add some cumin and other spices to help remove the fishy smell.

Of course, blanching is not only for the sake of removing the fish, but also for the convenience of removing the bones.

The final product of the wine-brewed steamed duck is a small piece of meat in the shape of a diced piece of meat and has no bones.

Therefore, after blanching, after the duck meat becomes soft, it is the most convenient time to remove the bones.

At this step, technology is very needed.

To make steamed duck, you can use the whole duck with the head and tail removed, or if you want a better taste, you can also use all the duck legs.

In modern times, duck meat is relatively cheap, and duck legs are not expensive, so it will not look luxurious to use all duck legs.

But now......

Well, meat is more expensive, and chickens and ducks are cheap just because the growth cycle is a little shorter.

Therefore, after Xiao Nianzhi thought about it, he still used the whole duck with the head and tail removed.

And there were so many of them that one was definitely not enough, so she made two at a time.

After removing the head and tail, and internal organs, soak them in cold water and massage them to better clean up the floating hairs and remove excess oil and fishy smell.

This step takes about the time of a pillar of incense.

Xiao Nianzhi has never made this dish here, and Yan Xingxuan and none of them will know it.

Therefore, the step of massaging the duck has to be done by herself.

Yan Xingxuan watched from the side for a while, thinking that he could do it, and then he took over.

Although the technique is rusty, under the guidance of Xiao Nianzhi, it is still done very well.

Yan Changxia and Wei Zhiqiu watched from the side, unconsciously glanced at each other, but they both understood each other's gazes: Damn, let him rob it!

Uncle Wang, so scheming!

The two little girls, at the same time, developed a consistent hatred of Yan Xingxuan.

Of course, the hatred is not high, and it will be dispersed as soon as the wind blows.

Because, Xiao Nianzhi began to blanch the duck!

Although I have seen the steps of Xiao Nian's roast duck before, it is different, it is really different.

Last time it was air-dried, this time it was blanched directly.

When blanching, the smell wafting out is really not good.

However, after that, Xiao Nian's boneless picture was too beautiful and attracted everyone's attention.

Yan Xingxuan switched back and forth between Xiao Nianzhi's hand and the duck repeatedly, and more eyes lingered on Xiao Nianzhi's hand. ap.

However, he was afraid that the little girl would not feel comfortable, so he changed it from time to time.

When looking at Xiao Nian's slender and soft white hands, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, as if he was looking at a treasure in the world.

When I look at the ducks, I look sad and not interested at all.

Duck:?

Yan Changxia kept staring at Xiao Nianzhi's smooth and extremely aesthetic knife work: "Wow, sister, this knife work is amazing, do you say that cutting chicken is the same as cutting duck?"

"What about the pigs?"

At first, the topic was normal, but in the end, the little girl came to ......

"What about the man?"

All:?

Xiao Nianzhi raised his head violently and looked at her with a frightened expression.

Yan Changxia also reacted in hindsight, she asked a stupid question, she opened her mouth, quickly reacted, and said embarrassedly, "Ah, it's just a good question."

She really has no interest in removing human bones, and she hasn't done it before.

No, Wei Zhiqiu, what kind of eyes do you have?

I'm not like you

, I'm really a rookie, the kind that doesn't know kung fu, and I can't pick human bones!!

What did Wei Zhiqiu's eyes say at this time?

With a kind of appreciation, a kind of recognition, it seems that in a group of noble girls in the capital who are incompatible with her, she has finally found a confidant.

Yan Changxia:.

No, this sense of identity, don't do it.

She was wronged, she really didn't!

The little girl was aggrieved, but no one helped her speak, and Wei Zhiqiu even touched her head lovingly.

Yan Changxia: ?

No, Wei Zhiqiu, don't go too far!

The little girl was angry, but Yan Xingxuan added fuel to the fire at this time: "Mingyue, you won't because Sister-in-law Wang forced you to learn the rules, and then you have any psychological problems and get infected with bad habits, okay?"

Yan Changxia gave him a roll of the eye, and turned his head to ignore him.

Xiao Nianzhi couldn't help but laugh on the side, and processed the last few pieces of meat.

The processed duck meat can not be steamed now, but the prepared sweet wine needs to be taken out, poured into the bowl containing the duck meat, then mixed evenly, and then marinated for about an hour and a half, so as to make the sweet aroma of the wine brew and the fresh aroma of the duck meat more thorough, and at the same time, it can also make the light wine aroma in the wine brewing, and better remove the excess fishy smell in the duck meat.

This step of marinating is to better remove the smell and flavor, so the time needs to be longer.

Yan Changxia didn't come for a long time, and they only had this one dish at night, which was obviously not good.

What's more, the little girl also brought a lot of ingredients.

The two big perch attracted Xiao Nianzhi's attention.

The capital is not close to the sea, so seafood is not common, and the river fresh is also extremely precious, and it is generally eaten by dignitaries.

Xiao Nianzhi is in the academy, and he can't eat it often.

Because other chefs couldn't satisfy Yan Xingxuan with their treatment of river fresh, he didn't have much thought about eating river fresh.

Xiao Nianzhi hadn't made fish for a while, but now that he saw it, his eyes naturally brightened.

Yan Xingxuan watched from the side and said curiously, "Do you want to prepare to make fish?"

As he spoke, he was ready to roll up his sleeves and clean up.

He won't, but ......

It can be learned.

Xiao Nianzhi is indeed going to make a fish dish, but he needs to ask his friends for their opinions or taste preferences, and then decide how to eat this fish.

Her idea was, osmanthus fish sticks.

It sounds complicated, but it's actually quite simple to do.

This dish actually has nothing to do with osmanthus.

It's because the raw material for making this dish in the first place was mandarin fish, also known as osmanthus fish.

That's why the dish finally got such a name.

Although mandarin fish is precious, for Yan Xingxuan and others, it can only be regarded as an ingredient.

However, in the waters of the capital, there is no mandarin fish, and it is not very realistic to want to eat fresh.

After all, today's Your Majesty is diligent and hardworking, and has always rejected extravagance.

He himself is still reluctant to toss blindly for a little appetite, let alone other people?

However, mandarin fish is also a perch-shaped subject, and if you insist on it, it also has a little in-law relationship with perch.

So, in the absence of mandarin fish, it is also possible to use sea bass.

If there is a chance in the future, when I go to the southeast coast, Xiao Nianzhi will make another authentic one.
