Just when Li Yi was frying the five-kernel stuffing, the sheep suddenly shouted: "Brother Yi, do you see if this syrup is boiled?" ”

When Li Yi heard the sound, he came to the sugar pot and took a look.

I saw that the syrup in the pot had begun to turn a little yellow, and the bubbles floating below had become the size of sesame seeds, and the speed of floating up was much slower, and I could clearly feel that the syrup had become much thicker.

Seeing this, Li Yi nodded and said: "This level of syrup has been completed, but we are going to make the crust of moon cakes, and it is best to boil the color a little deeper."

You keep staring until it's sesame oil and bubbles up again, then call me again. ”

"Okay."

The sheep answered, and continued to stare at the syrup in the pot, taking out his mobile phone from time to time to take pictures and record the changed state.

This is a rare practical experience, and she has to record all the experience.

After boiling for ten minutes, the syrup has already turned sesame oil color.

Seeing the bubbles rising again in the pot, she turned around and shouted, "Brother Yi, it's already sesame oil!" ”

Li Yi was making noodles, and when he heard this, he rubbed the noodles on his hands and returned to the stove.

Glancing at the state of the syrup in the pot, he ordered: "I have noodles in my hands, it's not easy to get them, you go and pour a bowl of pure water first." ”

And the sheep poured out a bowl of water, as he had said, and brought it to him.

"Put it here."

Li Yi raised his chin to signal, and then ordered: "That bag is baking soda, take it, use that small spoon to dig four flat spoons, pour it into the bowl, yes, scrape it flat, no need to press." ”

"Oh, just pour it in?"

The sheep mixed a bowl of baking soda according to what he said, and then poured it directly into the pot under Li Yi's command.

When the soda water was put into the pot, the syrup in the pot suddenly boiled, and large bubbles surged.

"Stir, stir quickly."

Li Yi commanded the sheep: "Don't be afraid, now that the transformation is complete, there will be no backsand, you have to stir it well as soon as possible." ”

"Why soda?"

The sheep hurriedly stirred the syrup according to Li Yi's instructions, and couldn't help but ask.

"It is best to boil the invert syrup until it is just yellowish, and the color is a little too thick until now, so you have to dilute it with water."

Li Yi explained: "Baking soda is added to neutralize the acid in the syrup, otherwise the taste of the skin will be very sour, which will affect the taste." ”

"Oh, that's it!"

The churning in the sheep's hands kept moving, and looking at the foam floating on the surface of the syrup, she couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say that bubbles crystallize?" Is it okay to make so many bubbles like this? ”

"Now that the syrup has been transformed, there is basically no more sand."

Li Yi smiled: "And I asked you to stir quickly, just to let the bubbles float to the surface as much as possible."

When diluted with water, the bubbles are no longer suspended in the syrup.

As long as these bubbles float on the surface, it will slowly burst on its own, so don't worry. ”

Hearing him say this, the sheep was relieved.

After watching her stir the syrup well, Li Yi instructed her to turn off the heat, pour out the syrup, and take it to the freezer to cool down.

And Li Yi himself returned to the desk and continued to meet.

The sheep put the syrup away, returned to the stove, looked at the detailed notepad on his mobile phone, and felt a sense of accomplishment.

Happily putting away her mobile phone, she came to Li Yi's side, looked at the dough in the basin in front of Li Yi, and asked curiously, "What is this going to do?" ”

"Mille-feuille sesame pancake."

Li Yi said as he kneading the dough in the basin vigorously.

With the blessing of his strength, the dough was extremely obedient, and quickly mixed from coarse dough into a single dough.

"Baked cakes?"

When the sheep heard this, he hesitated: "Isn't it possible to make baked cakes at home?" ”

When Li Yi heard this, he didn't stop in his hand, glanced at her, and said with a smile: "What? Don't look down on my baked cakes? ”

"No, no, no! I didn't mean that. ”

Sheep explained: "I just think that the baked cakes are a bit too ordinary, right? In front of dim sum like [Lotus Crisp] and [Magnolia Crisp], will it not seem to match well? ”

"You mean to say that the baked cake can't be on the stage, right?"

Li Yi glanced at her with a smile before saying: "The more delicate the pastry, the better, if you can handle the simplest ingredients well, you can also make it delicious."

As the so-called road to simplicity, back to the basics, the highest level of pastry white case is not the fine pastry, but the simplest steamed steamed bun.

Besides, how do you know that the baked cakes I make are not as delicious as [Lotus Crisp]? ”

Hearing him say this, the sheep had nothing to say, so he could only smile and clench his fists: "Okay, I was wrong." ”

Seeing this, Li Yi also smiled and explained: "It's fun for you, in fact, this baked cake is also particular."

It is the predecessor of pastry, which belongs to the transitional product of traditional baked cakes and various pastries, and its position in pastry is still relatively important.

And it tastes good, you'll find out when you try it later. ”

As he spoke, he had kneaded the dough smooth and flexible.

Feeling the force of the rebound, Li Yi turned it upside down under the basin with his backhand and let it eat by itself.

Taking a small basin again, Li Yi poured some flour into it, and then took out a piece of butter.

Seeing Li Yi take out the butter, the sheep was a little surprised: "Do you want to put butter in the baked cake?" ”

In her videos, butter is often used to reproduce some Western-style food.

But butter is a commonly used grease in Western pastries, and butter is added to the traditional pancakes, so is it still Chinese pastry?

Hearing her question, Li Yi smiled and said, "This is not butter, this is Daigo." ”

"Huh?"

The sheep didn't understand, and was a little confused: "What pot?" ”

"Daigo."

Li Yi explained with a smile: "The Daigo who was empowered. ”

“？？？”

The sheep was even more confused: "Isn't this butter?" ”

"Yes, it's butter, but in ancient times, it was called Daigo."

Li Yi opened the butter wrapper, took a pot, cut the butter into small pieces, and put it in, while explaining: "In fact, the word crisp came from outside the territory, and its meaning was originally a dairy product.

It is said in the "Great Nirvana Sutra Sunnah" that milk comes from cows, cheese comes from milk, cheese is born from cheese, ripe crisp comes from raw Su, and Daigo comes from cooked crisp.

This is the process of refining Daigo from the scriptures as a metaphor for the gradual improvement of the understanding of wisdom, but it also provides insight into the method of making Daigo.

The so-called cheese is a fermented dairy product, and the protein has a slight coagulation, which is somewhat similar to mare's milk wine, which was called buttermilk in ancient times.

Puff pastry is the cream that is stirred and refined, and Daigo is the purer butter.

It takes a stone to have three or four liters of Daigo, which is mentioned in the "New Cultivation of Materia Medica". ”

Listening to Li Yi's explanation, the sheep was even more confused: "Okay, even if it's Daigo, what does it have to do with baked cakes?" Are you going to make pancakes with butter? ”

"I'm going to use it to make mille-feuille sesame pancakes."

Li Yi turned on the fire and boiled the butter in the pot: "This baked cake is made of butter to make puff pastry, and it is said that it is specially made for Master Xuanzang." ”

Hearing this, the sheep was completely stunned.

There are also barrages in the live broadcast room.

"Why did you go around to the west to learn the scriptures again? Could it be that my Sun Dasheng did it? ”
