"Xiao Zhang, you take out this goose."

"Xiao Guo, you can catch this duck and this chicken."

"Brother Jin, you and Brother Fan should bring out this money spot."

"Pony, you take the plastic sheeting."

Li Yi took five cooks and quickly took out all the ingredients such as chicken, duck, goose and fish that had been kept in the pantry overnight.

For the freshness of the ingredients, Li Yi has requirements.

Except for the pork that was slaughtered in advance to remove acid, Li Yi kept the other live poultry until today.

It was inconvenient to slaughter in the back kitchen, so Li Yi took the cooks to the courtyard outside the back door.

Spread a piece of plastic sheet on the ground, and found a few pots, Li Yi slaughtered all the chickens, ducks and geese in three strokes and five by two.

After receiving the chicken blood and duck blood into a small basin, Li Yi asked Xiao Zhang to bring the boiled water.

asked Brother Jin to bring rosin and a spray gun, and Li Yi took the rosin, burned it with a spray gun, and smeared it on the ducks and geese that had plucked their long hair.

After drying, find the gap and open it, and all the fluff on the duck and goose will be plucked off.

The work of disemboweling and disposing of miscellaneous pieces was handed over to Brother Jin and Brother Fan.

He took Xiao Zhang, Xiao Guo and Xiao Ma back to the back kitchen.

On the six stoves side by side in the back kitchen, the teams have been lined up one after another.

Dong Haiqiang stood in front of the stove with his hands behind his back, staring at the kitchen cleaning the stove and processing the ingredients.

Under his gaze, the cooks are honestly busy, and no one dares to be lazy.

Fang Dongxiu's cooks were also busy preparing, but they were all talking and laughing, Fang Dongxiu also chatted with them, making jokes from time to time, and the atmosphere was quite joyful.

Huang Qigang brought the least number of assistant cooks, only three, all of whom were working with Huang Qigang to process the ingredients, and all the processed ingredients would be placed in the tableware, stacked neatly and orderly.

Xia Zhuo is the most leisurely, sitting in front of the stove, someone serving tea and pouring water, someone handling the ingredients and the stove, and he doesn't need to do it at all.

The most amazing thing is Liu Wei, he is gone.

No one paid attention to when he left, and all the people he brought with him left, leaving nothing left.

Li Yi came to the empty stove on the far right, asked Xiao Zhang to scrub the stove, and asked Xiao Guo and Xiao Ma to take out the pork.

He himself went to the small stove in the corner, and took over the four soup pots that had been simmering on the stove.

These soup pots were stewed on the stove yesterday afternoon, and the ingredients in each soup pot are different, which are divided into four soup types: delicacies from the mountains and seas, birds and animals.

Peeling off a crack in the oil paper covering the soup pot of seafood soup, Li Yi observed the amount of soup remaining in the soup pot.

The moment he unveiled it, a rich fragrance surged out and quickly diffused.

"Huh?"

Xia Zhuo, who was drinking tea, smelled this aroma and looked up in surprise, only to find that the aroma was actually wafting from the soup pot in front of Li Yi.

And the same soup pot actually put four in front of Li Yi.

Sniffing again, he carefully distinguished the types of ingredients in the aroma, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "That kid, you still say that you don't have a teacher?" Who taught you how to boil this pot of soup? ”

Liao Wendong was also attracted by this aroma, and when he saw the soup pot in front of Li Yi, he also remembered.

This is the soup stock that Li Yi prepared in front of him last night.

"That's right!"

Liao Wendong also asked Li Yi: "Sichuan plays with oil, Cantonese plays with soup, and Lu cuisine plays with thirteen spices, your soup is obviously the foundation of Cantonese cuisine, if you don't have a master to teach you, how can you boil it?" ”

"What can't you find on the Internet right now?"

Li Yi said with a smile: "As long as you want to find it, you can find out what style Cixi's pants are, so what's so difficult about a stock ratio?" ”

“……”

Liao Wendong always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't refute it.

Xia Zhuo put down the teacup, got up slowly, glanced at the soup pot in front of Li Yi, and put away a little contempt.

Even if Li Yi was born in Yeluzi, he is definitely the most top-notch wave of Yeluzi, otherwise he would never be able to boil such a fragrant broth.

"Brother Yi, the meat is here."

Xiao Guo and Xiao Ma brought the meat that Li Yi wanted.

Seeing the pork belly they brought, Xia Zhuo immediately understood that Li Yi was going to make [braised pork].

Seeing this, Xia Zhuo couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.

Cooking braised pork in front of him, the inheritor of the Xia family, this kid is also very timid.

[Hunan style braised pork] is also called [Xia's braised pork] in Hunan Province, which is enough to show the status of the Xia family in this dish.

Before the advent of [Hunan style braised pork], [braised pork], a dish that has been passed down for thousands of years, has several mature practices such as Lu style, Sichuan style, Su style, Zhejiang style, and Fujian style.

However, the ancestors of the Xia family created a [Hunan-style braised pork], which opened up a new dish for this thousand-year-old dish.

Relying on this dish, the Xia family's position in the entire Hunan cuisine industry will not be shaken.

Even after a hundred years, it will still be recorded.

Seeing that Li Yi wanted to "make meat in Xiamen", Xia Zhuo also greeted with a smile: "Is the pork belly ready?" Take it. ”

"Alright."

The cook brought over a piece of pork belly that had been burned and cleaned with a steel wool ball.

"Flying water."

Xia Zhuo didn't move, just raised his chin.

When the cook heard this, he boiled the water, and when the water temperature rose, he turned on the fire and put the pork in the pot.

At this time, Xia Zhuo stepped forward, picked up the pepper pot, and poured some pepper into the pot.

"This step is called adding flavored flying water, mainly adding green onion and ginger, white pepper and salt, green onion ginger and white pepper to remove the fish, salt can bring out the blood foam in the meat."

Xia Zhuo explained to the cook.

The assistant chef listened carefully, which was also the reason why they had to come to Xia Zhuo to help the chef after they broke their heads.

If they can learn this [Hunan-style braised pork] from Xia Zhuo, then as long as they are in Hunan Province, they will basically not be hungry.

While the assistant chef here was listening carefully to Xia Zhuo's explanation, Li Yi's side and Xiao Zhang were also standing behind Li Yi, watching his operation, and looking at the cooks behind Xia Zhuo next to them with envy.

is also learning braised pork, so they can only learn behind Li Yi.

Those helpers can follow the authentic [Hunan style braised pork] to learn from others.

People are more popular than dead people!

Xia Zhuo also noticed the gaze of a few small cooks behind Li Yi, the smile on the corner of his mouth became a little more obvious, and his voice increased a little: "This step, the most important thing is to grasp the salt mouth."

Like this piece of meat, it weighs at least 5 catties, so you need to add ten spoons of salt.

But if you want to feed some bottoms, you have to add twelve spoonfuls of salt. ”

Listening to his explanation, whether it was the assistant chef behind him or the assistant chef behind Li Yi, they were all carefully remembering, for fear of missing half a word.

Xiao Zhang held his mobile phone and wrote on the memo: "Five catties of meat, add ten spoons of salt, feed the bottom, add twelve spoons." ”

Xiao Guo on the side was also remembering, but he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "There are big and small spoons, spoons are also spoons, soup spoons are also spoons, spoons are not big, how to count salt?" ”

When Xiao Zhang heard this, he was stunned.

Oh, yes!

The size of the spoon is different, so how should it be calculated?

At this time, Li Yi, who was also adding salt to the pot, suddenly opened his mouth indifferently: "The amount of salt in Feishui is 1% of the total weight of meat and water, that is, 1 kg of meat and water together, add 10 grams of salt, a total of 10 kg, add 100 grams of salt."

The proportion of feeding the bottom mouth is 1.5%, and you can calculate it yourself. ”

After he finished speaking, there was silence around him.

looked back with some doubts, but he found that the three Xiao Zhang behind him, as well as the assistant chef behind the stove next door, were all looking at him in a daze.

Xia Zhuo stood in front of the stove and looked at him directly, with complicated eyes.
