Chapter 11 The main ingredient of the hopper
"Buy beef first."
As they spoke, they had already walked to the area dedicated to selling beef.
It is worthy of being a food market certified by the association, with the whole cold chain transportation of ingredients, all kinds of certificates are readily available, and the quality is visible to the naked eye.
Qin Lang picked up a piece of beef tenderloin that had been cut open and could clearly see the snowflake-like fat lines in it, and after looking at it twice, his face showed a satisfied look.
This quality is comparable to the Australian standard M10 level.
"What's the price of beef tenderloin?"
"Two thousand one hundred dollars a pound." The shopping guide glanced at Qin Lang and smiled, "How much does the little brother want?" β
"Look at something else." Qin Lang's face was calmly put down.
Is it a problem with ingredients?
No, that's his problem.
After inquiring about the price of other parts of this cow, Qin Lang rationally chose another cow of inferior quality.
This time, the price is finally in the triple digits.
Constantly telling himself that he would be rich if he made steamed sea bass tomorrow, Qin Lang endured the distress and selected it to let the shopping guide weigh and package it, and looked at an oxtail placed in the corner, "How to sell this?" β
"That's it." The shopping guide glanced at it and waved his hand nonchalantly, "There are not many Imperial Spirit Chefs who buy oxtail, you buy so much, this one will be given to you." β
Qin Lang: "..."
The price of the same ingredient may fluctuate in different places.
For example, if the locals in one place do not eat animal offal, then the price of local animal offal will naturally be much cheaper than in other places.
The same should be true of the current situation.
This shopping guide doesn't care about oxtail so much, which shows that basically no one in Dongxia City eats this.
Without hesitation, he pointed to the original cow, "Can you send me that tail together?" β
"Okay, look at the little brother's good face." The shopping guide smiled, "I will take care of the business more in the future." β
"Definitely!" Qin Lang nodded seriously.
If you send this every day, I'll come every day!
"Let's go, Danbao, let's go see other ingredients."
"Goo-toot!"
β¦
When Qin Lang returned home with the egg treasure, the various ingredients purchased in the food market had been delivered to the door by the special delivery personnel.
After signing for the receipt, he excitedly moved the various ingredients to the kitchen.
Danbao followed all the way, and only after arriving in the kitchen did he turn his eyes.
"Gollum?"
Under the same heart, it could feel that although Qin Lang was calm on the surface, he had been very excited since he bought those two oxtails.
Is there anything special about oxtail?
"The oxtail is a valuable part." Qin Lang quickly peeled and cut the oxtail into pieces with a knife, and opened his mouth happily, "It is not as evenly distributed in the meat as other parts, the fat content is less, but it has more gum. β
"And there is bone marrow in the oxtail bone, which can make the umami of the oxtail more rich and mellow, so it is suitable for stewing or soup." He smiled and put the processed oxtail in a small basin, turned his head to look at the egg treasure, "You will know this by tasting the oxtail soup that will come out of the pot later." β
"I already have an idea of what kind of dishes to choose." Qin Lang pointed to the oxtail in the basin, "The main ingredient is it." β
"But let's cook today's dishes first!"
Danbao quickly showed an expectant expression.
After washing rice and water and turning on the rice cooker, Qin Lang returned to the desk, added cold water and cooking wine to the basin containing the oxtail, and then cut the yellow essence and ginger into slices, washed the wolfberries and tangerine peel for later use.
"Gollum?"
Looking closely at the yellow essence and ginger on the table, a puzzled look appeared on Danbao's face.
These two ingredients look like ah!
"This is yellow essence, also called tiger ginger." Qin Lang pointed to the whiter yellow essence tablets, "It has almost no smell and a sweet taste." β
"This is ginger." He then pointed to another, and then twisted a piece close to the egg treasure, "You sniff?" β
In just a moment, a spicy ginger smell came to my nose.
Danbao was so frightened that he hurriedly flew back.
Looking at the cute appearance of the egg treasure, Qin Lang smiled, and then began to process other ingredients.
Seeing that Qin Lang was cutting the pork loin into slightly thicker slices, Danbao twisted his body and came up again.
"Gollum?"
"The oxtail needs to be soaked in bloody water, and while we wait, we can make a second course, pot wrapped meat." Qin Lang smiled, "Do you remember that we bought a lettuce?" That's the third course, oyster sauce lettuce. β
While speaking, Qin Lang had already cut the pork loin, put it in a small bowl, added salt and grasped it well, and then began to adjust the juice.
Two tablespoons of sugar, two tablespoons of rice vinegar, salt, soy sauce and sesame oil.
When Qin Lang finished mixing the juice, Danbao came back to his senses and excitedly approached Qin Lang.
Lettuce can be fresher and fresher!
It's time for it to use its eating skills again!
"Gollum!"
"Although the lettuce was already fresh when I bought it, I believe that with the blessing of your food skills, it will definitely taste better." Qin Lang nodded seriously.
got Qin Lang's affirmation, and the egg yolk face of the egg treasure was so happy that it turned in circles.
"Next, soak the starch thoroughly, and then hang the batter on the pot meat." Qin Lang took out a packet of potato starch and made it as he spoke, "There is more flour than noodles, stir it slightly and let it stand." β
Danbao had a puzzled look on his face.
And noodles? So what?
"Goo?"
Qin Lang put the flour aside and let it stand, "Noodles are another noodle case technique, the next time you will be given a delicious big meat bun, you will know when the time comes." β
Others draw cakes, Qin Lang paints buns.
"Goo-toot!"
Danbao's eyes lit up.
Big meat buns!
It's delicious when you hear it!
"Now, we can go back and deal with the oxtail."
Qin Lang put the basin containing the oxtail on the side in front of him and pointed to the water in the basin.
The mixture of water and cooking wine in the basin has taken on a red color after just soaking.
"You see, the blood is already soaking out."
"Gollum!"
Egg Bao's eyes are bright.
It's magical.
Seeing Danbao's small appearance, Qin Lang's mood suddenly became a little happier and continued with the next steps.
Add oxtail and green onion and ginger under cold water, boil over high heat until the water boils, skim off the foam and remove it.
Add ginger slices to stir-fry oxtail in hot oil, then put oxtail, yellow essence slices, wolfberry and tangerine peel into a pressure cooker, add water, cooking wine and salt.
Seeing Qin Lang close the lid of the pressure cooker, Danbao's face was full of anticipation.
Isn't it ready to eat soon?
"Gollum?"
"The pressure cooker takes half an hour." Qin Lang spread his hands, "This is not bad, if it is simmered, it will take two hours." β
It's going to take so long to eat!
Danbao's little head suddenly drooped.
"It's okay, we can make the other two dishes at this time, so that all three dishes can be eaten at the same time." Qin Lang rubbed Danbao's head, "Don't you think it's been a long time now, right?" β
"Duke!"
Oh yes, and two more dishes!
Danbao's ears moved, and his face showed a look of anticipation again.
