Seeing the gesture of the staff, Li Yi moved to continue to adjust the oil.

He poured all the 100 grams of lard from the bowl into the noodles and wiped off all the remaining oil from the bowl with flour.

Then, he scooped another spoonful of peanut oil, the same 100 grams, and put it into the noodle pit.

Lard and peanut oil were mixed together, but Li Yi was not in a hurry to mix noodles, but said to the camera: "When Suzhou-style noodles are made with water and oil noodles, in addition to oil, some sugar will be added, mainly for coloring."

Generally, it is enough to put white sugar, but the traditional Soviet-style water and oil noodles are maltose. ”

After banning a group of outrageous audiences, the remaining audiences finally relented.

But there are still many viewers who play memes with squinted eyes and smiles.

Li Yi didn't care, he just took the maltose that had not been used up before, heated and melted, picked out about 20 grams, and put it in the noodle pit.

At this time, lard, peanut oil and maltose are all put together.

Li Yi stretched out his five fingers and began to stir the grease.

Two oils, one sugar, were mixed together, and under Li Yi's stirring, they began to emulsify.

During the mixing process, the flour is incorporated into the fat, which turns white.

The oil and sugar gradually merge and give off a unique aroma.

Smelling this aroma, Wu Lei immediately came to his senses: "Yes! That's the smell! It smells like that! ”

The fresh meat mooncakes he has eaten have such a special aroma.

While stirring the grease, Li Yi instructed Wu Lei: "Take a basin of hot water, 85 degrees." ”

The water dispenser provided by the sponsor can be set to the temperature.

Wu Lei answered, and went to the water dispenser to pick up a basin of 85°C hot water.

Li Yi had already stirred the oil here.

After taking the hot water, he poured some into the oil and stirred it quickly with his ruthless iron hands.

As he stirred, he stirred the flour from the edge of the pit into it, and soon the oil thickened.

"To make water and oil noodles, you must use hot water above 80 °C."

Li Yi explained while stirring: "Heating the water is to make the noodles soft, if the temperature is too low, the noodles will be hard, and when the skin is made later, it is easy to break the crisp, resulting in the filling being exposed." ”

"It's hot noodles!"

Zhao Jinmai opened his mouth and said: "The fried oil cakes made by my grandmother are made of hot noodles, which are particularly delicious. ”

"yes, almost."

Li Yi pointed to the dry puff pastry that was placed aside: "The dry puff pastry is considered dead noodles, and the role it plays is crispy, so it must be dry enough."

The water and oil noodles are to wrap the filling on the inner layer, so you have to use hot noodles to increase its ductility as much as possible.

Together, they can make fresh meat mooncakes crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. ”

Wu Lei watched from the sidelines and jokingly complained: "Noodles can actually tell the difference between life and death." ”

"Of course you can divide it."

Li Yi smiled: "Yeast is alive, and the noodles fermented with yeast are not alive?"

If you don't put yeast and don't ferment the noodles, it's not active, isn't it dead noodles? ”

Wu Lei pointed to the hot water in Li Yi's hand: "Is that hot noodle a live noodle or a dead noodle?" ”

"Considered familiar."

Li Yi replied with a smile, and then glanced at the barrage by the way.

Then, a barrage floated past the display.

"Brother Yi, I want to eat your noodles."

“……”

The corners of Li Yi's eyes twitched, but he still withdrew his gaze.

How dare the current audience post anything!

No longer looking at the barrage, Li Yi added water and stirred at the same time, and soon, all the noodles were mixed into a soft and sticky dough by him.

The dough is so sticky that it sticks to the cutting board.

But Li Yi was not in a hurry, and continued to knead, and it didn't take long for the dough to become smooth again.

There is water in the water and oil surface, so it is necessary to conserve water.

After kneading, Li Yi used plastic wrap to bread the water and oil.

The minced meat is marinated and ready to be wrapped.

But the noodles need to wake up for a while, and this time can't be wasted, so Li Yi first set the preheating time of the oven, and then took a bag of starch over, ready to make some peach crisp by the way.

Knowing that Li Yi was going to make peach cake, Zhao Jinmai was surprised: "You can even make peach cake?" ”

"What's so strange about that?"

Li Yi smiled: "Isn't peach cake the most common traditional dim sum?" ”

"Uh... It seems to be too. ”

Zhao Jinmai tilted his head and thought: "When I was a child, my grandmother bought me peach cakes, and they all went to the cake shop. ”

"How is that possible?"

Li Yi explained: "Peach crisp is a famous noodle snack in Jiangxi Province, which has appeared in the Ming Dynasty.

During the Jiajing period, Jiangxi Province produced two first assistants, one named Xia Yan, who was a loyal minister.

The other is called Yan Song, who is a traitor.

In the twenty-seventh year of Jiajing, because Xia Yan supported the recovery of the Hetao area, he was framed by Yan Song and executed.

Xia Yan was a native of Guixi, Jiangxi Province, and it is said that after his death, a group of descendants fled back to his hometown.

Some of the descendants of this group can make court peach cakes, so they started a dim sum business at a dock near the North Pole Pavilion, specializing in court peach cakes.

Later, the peach cake slowly spread, and it began to be sold all over the country. ”

"That's right."

Huang Xiaoming has a deep understanding: "The people of my grandparents' generation like to buy peach crisps the most, and they will buy some peach cakes back during the Chinese New Year until now, even if they don't eat them, they are there." ”

In the live broadcast room, the audience was also reminded of memories.

"Peach crisp should be the oldest snack in China, right? I feel that my parents, grandparents' generation, have eaten peach cakes. ”

"The peach crisp is so classic, my family is from Gan Province, when I was a child, my family was poor, and the snack I could eat was peach crisp."

"When I was a child, I didn't like to eat peach crisp, but my grandparents always bought it, and it tasted very strange, sweet and salty, and in some places it was very hard."

"Peach crisps are made in food factories all over the country, but the quality level is uneven, and the food factory where my dad works sells peach cakes that are particularly popular.

That kind of peach crisp is mixed with nuts, and there are dried fruits on top, which tastes very fragrant, and my dad always brings it to me when he comes back from work. ”

"I love to eat peach cakes! Now I'll buy it when I go to the cake shop! The walnut flavors, the almond flavors, all delicious to eat, and the innovative chocolate hazelnut flavors, which my son especially likes. ”

Looking at the audience's barrage, Zhao Jinmai asked Li Yi: "Brother Yi, what kind of peach crisp do you want to make?" ”

Li Yi patted the bag of dried fruits he brought back: "That must be the most classic walnut flavor, I buy so many walnut kernels to make peach crisp." ”

"Huh?"

Zhao Jinmai was a little disappointed: "I don't like to eat walnut-flavored food." ”

"And what flavor do you want to eat?"

Li Yi asked her as he opened the bag of dried fruits.

"I want to eat pistachio."

Zhao Jinmai looked at the bag of dried fruits he opened, and stepped forward to choose: "Can you put some more raisins?" I feel like it's not bad to add some dried apricots! ”

Seeing that she was so energetic, Li Yi simply handed over the bag of dried fruits to her: "If you want to eat, you can help with the work, and whatever dried fruit you want to eat, just dispose of it, and I'll do it later."

Peel the shell with the shell, wash the skin with the skin, and give it to me when it's ready. ”
