Chapter 42: The people take food as the sky!
Bean curd made with meat?
The surrounding onlookers couldn't help but be stunned when they heard the boy's exclamation.
Can you still make bean curd with meat?
When the girl heard this, she didn't believe it, so she hurriedly scooped up a spoonful and put it in her mouth.
"Oh!"
She covered her mouth in surprise.
After the smooth bean curd melted on the tip of her tongue like a marshmallow.
The rich aroma of the broth exploded like a bomb, and she subconsciously closed her mouth and breathed through her nostrils.
But she felt that the breath she exhaled was full of the aroma of broth.
After swallowing it in one gulp, she exclaimed: "It smells so good!" It's really a bean curd made of meat! ”
Hearing that she also said that this was a bean curd made of chicken, everyone around was shocked!
"Can meat still be made into bean curd?"
"I can understand using meat to make beef noodles, using meat to make bean curd? How is this done? ”
"Isn't it adding some kind of high-tech?"
“emmm…… It should be delicious..."
After hearing the exclamations of the boy and girl, Gao Wenlin seemed to have thought of something, and stepped forward to look at the bean curd in the soup bucket, but he was a little puzzled.
"That, boss, I'll have a copy too."
He took out his mobile phone and swept Li Yi a piece of money.
If there is a customer, he will receive it, and Li Yi will fill a bowl and hand it to him.
Taking the meat bean curd, Gao Wenlin gently flicked the white jade in the bowl with a spoon, floating lightly on the broth, like a cloud of bean curd, and lowered his head to sniff.
Then, he scooped up a piece with a spoon, brought it to his eyes, and carefully looked left and right before putting it in his mouth.
When the bean blossom entered, he didn't shout, just closed his eyes and savored the taste.
After a while, he exhaled a breath and said affirmatively: "Sure enough, it's chicken bean curd." ”
A fan next to him heard his words and asked suspiciously: "Chicken bean curd?" Isn't it meat bean curd? ”
Gao Wenlin himself didn't dare to confirm it, so he asked Li Yi: "Boss, are you the chicken bean curd in the top ten classic dishes of Sichuan cuisine?" ”
When Li Yi heard this, he didn't deny it, but he still explained: "Meat bean curd is the general name of this dish, which means bean curd made with meat."
As for the meat bean curd I made today, it is indeed made with chicken, and it is no problem to call it chicken bean curd.
But you can also make it with other meats, so I call it meat bean curd. ”
"Understood, thank you very much."
Gao Wenlin clasped his hands together and thanked him, but he couldn't stop admiring in his mouth: "It's so lucky to be able to eat this famous dish, Sansheng is lucky!" ”
At this time, a girl next to her couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mr. Gao, I am from Sichuan Province, why don't I know that there is meat bean curd in the classic dishes of Sichuan Province?" ”
"There used to be, but it was lost decades ago."
Gao Wenlin explained to her: "You go back and check a book called "Chengdu Overview", which has records.
Chicken bean curd is a dish of Sichuan chefs in Dazhou, Sichuan Province more than 100 years ago, and it is very fine.
It pays attention to eating chicken without seeing chicken, eating meat without seeing meat, and making meat into the shape of a vegetarian dish, which is the so-called meat to support vegetarian. ”
"That's it!"
The girl listened ignorantly, unaware of it.
"Boss, can I take a picture?"
Gao Wenlin asked politely at Li Yi.
Li Yi nodded, and did not refuse, Gao Wenlin motioned to the photographer behind him to come to the soup bucket and took a close-up of the meat bean flower inside.
Gao Wenlin watched the photographer take a close-up, and explained to the camera: "The so-called chicken bean curd, according to the record in the "Chengdu Overview", is a dish in which the sprouts in the chicken breast are knocked into a fine meat puree with the back of a knife, and then slowly cooked into a bean curd shape with a high temperature in broth.
The bud meat is the piece of meat attached to the wings on the chicken breast, that is, the tenderloin.
Chicken tenderloin is the most tender meat on the whole chicken, commonly known as chicken sprouts.
Chicken sprouts are very scarce, and a chicken can only produce about two taels, which is generally used to make puree. ”
As he spoke, he asked Li Yi: "Boss, how much chicken sprouts do you use in this bucket of meat bean curd?" ”
"More than 200 of them!"
Li Yi explained casually.
Anyway, he bought all the chicken sprouts that could be bought in the vegetable market.
"Tsk! Daintily! ”
Gao Wenlin gave Li Yi a thumbs up and exclaimed.
There are more than 200 chickens, and only the most tender chicken sprouts are used to make chicken bean curd, not to mention how much it costs, this trouble alone has stumped many people.
Gao Wenlin tasted another bite of chicken bean curd, and after swallowing it for a long time, he asked curiously: "Boss, I won't tell you, I have tried to reproduce this dish myself, but I have failed several times."
I can't get past the meat puree alone, how did you chop the meat so delicately? ”
"Use the back of the knife, chop slowly, pick out the fascia while knocking, chop it fine enough, and you're good to go." Li Yi explained casually while rinsing the wooden spoon.
"How fine?"
Gao Wenlin was puzzled.
Li Yi thought for a while: "It's almost fine with sesame paste and peanut butter." ”
“……”
Gao Wenlin was stunned.
Not only was he stunned, but the audience in the live broadcast room also complained in unison.
"Tahini? Anchor: Do you want to listen to what you're talking about? ”
"That's meat! Chop into tahini so evenly? You just grind it with a grinding disc! ”
"To the extent of peanut butter? Oh, my God! How long does that have to be chopped? ”
"Are you kidding? Is this something that a human can do? ”
Gao Wenlin was stunned for a moment before he asked in admiration: "How long will it take for you to chop a piece of meat puree?" ”
Li Yi patted the soup bucket: "I chopped this bucket for three hours." ”
"Shhh
Gao Wenlin gasped: "Three hours? When I reproduced it, it only took half an hour to chop one copy, so it's no wonder that the reproduction was unsuccessful! ”
"Three hours?"
The surrounding onlookers smacked their tongues.
"It's too troublesome for me to chop the dumpling filling, but it takes three hours to chop this meat bean curd?"
"If the boss chops for three hours, you may not be able to do it for three hours, maybe six hours."
"Good boy! Then this bowl of meat bean curd sells for hundreds of yuan, which is really not expensive! It's a lot of work. ”
"It's too troublesome, I'd rather eat boiled chicken breast directly, and spend so much effort just to make a bowl of meat and bean curd like bean curd, does it make sense? No wonder this dish is lost. ”
Hearing the doubts from the crowd, Gao Wenlin couldn't help but look back and retorted: "Don't get tired of eating, this is the essence of Chinese food culture, why is it meaningless?" ”
The person who questioned it was a middle-aged woman, and when she saw Gao Wenlin turn around and refute, she was a little embarrassed for a while, but she was still stubborn: "I mean, this troublesome dish is outdated."
Nowadays, people are busy making money every day, who has the time to make a bowl of meat bean curd that takes three hours to chop?
At that time, the hotel turned over several rounds.
And it's so expensive! There are more than 600 bowls, and more than 600 can drink ordinary bean curd for a month! ”
Gao Wenlin saw that she was still on the bar, so he turned around and explained to him: "Everyone has different needs for food, some people eat just to satisfy their stomachs, just eat enough, the amount is large and affordable, and it is best to taste heavier, and it will be very satisfying."
But some people are willing to take the time to appreciate the subtlety of food.
Take this bowl of meat bean curd, for example, although it also uses broth, but its main ingredient is the most common chicken.
Isn't it a miracle to be able to make the most common chicken in this form, with such a tender taste and such a delicious taste?
This is the essence of Chinese food culture that has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is also the most beautiful art.
Because it confirms the old saying, the people live on food! ”
His last sentence was so loud that it immediately caused a round of applause from all around.
"The people live on food! That's right! ”
"It's really like this, the simplest ingredients can be made into new ideas and made into the most delicious taste, which is the most powerful!"
"Old tall cow beep! Boss cow beep! ”
Listening to the cheers around her, the middle-aged woman's face turned red, muttered, and turned around and hurried away.
The audience, who was aroused by Lao Gao's words, had already gathered in front of Li Yi's booth, and took out their mobile phones to scan the code.
"Boss! I want a bowl! ”
"Give me one!"
"Don't squeeze! Stomp on my feet! ”
Suddenly, the scene was in full swing.
