Looking at Chen Jianbing's smiling appearance, Li Yi finally knew why the audience used orange cats to describe him.

Outside the play, he does look like a lazy old cat, not aggressive and energetic.

"Then mix a portion and you can taste it."

Li Yi smiled and closed the lid of the soup bucket: "But you have to simmer for ten minutes first, otherwise the heat will not penetrate." ”

"Okay."

Chen Jianbing was not in a hurry, nodded happily, and then asked, "Then what can I do to help?" ”

He spread his hands and said with a smile: "I can't wait to eat for nothing?" ”

"Don't you want to work?"

Li Yi smiled and joked, then took a pot of boiled duck paws soaked in ice water, and motioned to him: "This pot of duck paws will be handed over to you to deal with, and I will teach you how to get it." ”

As he spoke, he took the scissors and demonstrated to Chen Jianbing how to take the duck metacarpal bone.

Chen Jianbing followed Li Yi seriously, processed it slowly for a long time, and finally took off a piece of complete duck paw meat.

"Such a big duck paw, and the meat taken down is only so little?"

He couldn't help but sigh: "We are so good at eating, we can shave off the flesh on this bone." ”

"The flesh is the most fragrant."

Li Yi smiled and put down the scissors: "Then you shave first, and I'll go and work on other dishes." ”

"Okay, you're going to get busy."

Chen Jianbing shaved slowly, unhurriedly.

Before Li Yi returned to the desk, he began to mix the sauce of [Saliva Chicken].

When he prepared the sauce, the chicken in the soup bucket was simmered.

Before returning to the soup bucket, Li Yi first took a box of ice cubes from the refrigerator, put it in a basin, filled it with water, and made a basin of ice water.

Then he fished a chicken out of the soup bucket, put it in ice water, and chilled it.

If you want to make the crispy and tender skin of the peppered chicken, the chicken needs to be soaked in ice water for three or four minutes when it comes out of the pot, which can effectively tighten the chicken skin and increase the flexible taste of the chicken skin.

But don't soak it for too long, otherwise the chicken will be firewood.

Soon, three minutes later, Li Yi fished out the chicken and put it in a porcelain basin.

Pepper sesame chicken is quick to make, just tear the chicken apart and pour soul broth over it.

Tear the chicken apart by hand, tear it into strips of shredded meat, and place it at the bottom of the pot.

Then, Li Yi grabbed a handful of shredded onions from Wu Lei and put them in the basin.

After taking another green onion, cutting it into oblique segments, and sprinkling it on top, Li Yi scooped out a spoonful of braised soup from the soup bucket and poured it into the basin.

Then, he scooped another spoonful of sesame oil, poured it in, stirred it evenly with a frying spoon, and greeted Chen Jianbing: "Teacher Chen, come and taste it!" ”

"Oh, here we are!"

Chen Jianbing just finished cutting a duck paw, and after answering, he wiped his hands and walked over with a smile.

Looking down at the well-mixed pepper chicken in the basin, his smile became brighter.

"This color looks so energetic!"

Chen Jianbing took a pair of chopsticks and picked up a piece of chicken skin: "I'll take a bite and see!" ”

Putting the chicken skin in his mouth, he tasted it carefully, and suddenly looked up at Li Yi in surprise: "Yes!" ”

"It's okay to eat, right?"

Li Yi asked with a smile.

"That's great!"

Chen Jianbing admired, picked up another piece of chicken thigh, pressed it into the soup, and sent it into his mouth after being wrapped in the soup.

Savoring it, his expression was puzzled and surprised.

Swallowing the chicken, he raised his thumb at Li Yi and praised: "It's really okay!" This taste! ”

"It's good to eat if you like it."

Li Yi smiled.

Picking up another piece of chicken with skin, Chen Jianbing tasted it carefully, and couldn't help asking, "Have you ever studied in the Western Regions?" This taste, out of the Western Regions, no, it should be out of Hutubi, I haven't tasted it. ”

"Nope."

Li Yi explained with a smile: "But any technology, if you learn the depths, you will find that the truth is the same." ”

"No, you've definitely learned."

Chen Jianbing shook his head and sighed: "I am too impressed by this taste."

This dish originated in Hutubi and was only made in the 90s.

Before I came to Beijing to go to school, I went to Hutubi to see my friend, and he invited me to eat this pepper chicken, which tasted exactly the same as this!

It was the best pepper chicken I've ever tasted, and I always remember the taste, and that's it. ”

He was already numb and began to suck saliva, but his hand did not stop, and he continued to say: "Since then, whether it is in Dihua City, or in other counties and cities, or even back to Hutubi, I have never eaten such a delicious pepper chicken."

I didn't expect to eat this taste again in your place, it's amazing! ”

He sighed with emotion, and then turned back to Li Yi and asked, "How do you make this taste?" The taste is more than what I have eaten in the Western Regions? ”

Without waiting for Li Yi to answer, Jiang Xin, who was working, found Chen Jianbing, who was eating sweetly here.

"The emperor steals delicious food!"

She shouted, then turned and ran.

"Huangsang! I don't even bring concubines to eat delicious food! ”

Cai Shaofen also followed.

Then, a few people who swarmed over directly squeezed Chen Jianbing away from the porcelain basin.

"Pepper chicken?"

Jiang Xin was born in the Western Regions, and is naturally no stranger to pepper chicken, and is well versed in the trick of eating chicken first.

Picking up a piece of chicken skin, she put it in her mouth.

The chicken skin of the Q bomb has a slippery touch that even worries her about slippery when she chews.

But this Q-bomb doesn't have the same rubbery taste as it is hard to chew.

It's just right, and there is a feeling of tendon and glutinous, which makes her chew it happily.

However, what amazed her the most was the taste of the soup.

Although the juice at the bottom of the basin is hung with pale yellow sesame oil, it still maintains a translucent and clear feeling in the areas where the sesame oil does not completely cover it.

Soak the chicken in the soup base and soak it off, and you can also remove all the sesame oil, leaving only the white and tender chicken skin, which even looks like a clear soup and little water.

But after the entrance, its thick taste forms a strong contrast with the appearance.

When I took the first bite, the medicinal soup seeped out of the chicken skin, and it was full of flavor.

And after a dozen chews, the sesame oil remaining on the chicken skin released its magic little by little, and soon her tongue and lips trembled as if they were overpowered.

"Hmm! What a hemp! It's so enjoyable! ”

Jiang Xin sucked it down, and then carried chopsticks into the battle again.

Chen Jianbing, who was squeezed out, puffed his chopsticks unsatisfactorily.

Tasting the taste of the soup on the chopsticks, he suddenly looked at Li Yi and asked sincerely, "Can you teach me how to make this dish?"

I've always told my wife that I've had a particularly delicious pepper chicken, but she never knew what it tasted like.

I learned this dish, went back and made it for her to taste, and paid to learn it. ”

His tone was very serious, and when Li Yi saw this, he smiled and said, "It's all your own people, what kind of money is not money?" I was going to teach the audience, to spread the art to benefit people! ”

"Thank you so much!"

Chen Jianbing reached out and held Li Yi's hand, smiling happily.

"You're welcome."

Li Yi glanced at the barrage on the barrage screen, and then explained to him: "The kind of pepper chicken you eat that you will never forget, it should be similar to the one I made, it is all old-fashioned."

The only difference between the old-fashioned method and the new-style method is that the old-fashioned method is to boil braised soup, and the new-style method directly serves monosodium glutamate and chicken powder.

Now in the pepper chicken shops in the Western Regions, there are very few people who are willing to boil braised soup. ”
