Lin Yilun waited for him to say this, and when he heard this, he walked to the cupboard, but Zhao Jinmai had already taken a step forward and took out a big spoon and chopsticks from the cabinet.

Seeing Zhao Jinmai running over with chopsticks, Li Yi smiled and quipped: "Didn't you still feel stinky just now?" ”

Zhao Jinmai sniffed the strange fragrance wafting from the basin, and said with a smile: "It doesn't stink now!" ”

After stir-frying in lard, the strong flavor on the tempeh has dissipated, leaving only a unique aroma, which smells very appetizing.

"I'll try it."

Lin Yilun took the spoon and bowl from Zhao Jinmai's hand, scooped out half a bowl from the tempeh pot, and couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful of tempeh mixed with glutinous chili peppers with a spoon and brought it to the front.

He is a chef and has hosted food shows, so he is still very professional.

first sniffed the smell of tempeh, and then he directed himself to the camera and described it to the audience in the live broadcast room: "This tempeh smells, the smell of fermentation is already very light, and it is completely acceptable."

Those who have eaten tempeh should know that it tastes, it is a little stinky, but it smells very fragrant and attractive, and you should know what I mean. ”

As he spoke, he lowered his head and sniffed again, carefully distinguished, and suddenly exclaimed: "This lard seems to be a bit powerful, the aroma is very full, and it completely stimulates the taste of tempeh." ”

He turned his head to Li Yi and asked, "This lard is made of local pork, right?" ”

"Yes, the local black-haired pig in your province, bought in Bijie, is locally called Coke pig."

After Li Yi finished scooping the tempeh, he poured the base into a soup bucket, and the oil was fragrant.

"Coke pig, hey, hey! That's a good name. ”

Lin Yilun laughed, and then nodded with satisfaction: "I just said that ordinary feed pigs definitely don't have such a strong aroma, and local pork is much more fragrant than feed pigs." ”

After speaking, he picked up the spoon and signaled to the camera: "I'll taste it again!" ”

Putting the spoon in his mouth, he closed his eyes and savored it.

In the mouth, the oily aroma of the outer layer of lard is mixed with the saltiness of the tempeh itself.

When the fat touches the tongue coating, the fermented aroma of tempeh dissolved in the lard quickly stimulates the tongue coating and transmits the taste electrical signal to the brain.

Lin Yilun took a bite, and the tempeh, which had been stir-fried to a crispy and soft taste, did not have the slightest resistance, and was gently squeezed by his teeth, and it loosened.

After the tempeh is loosened, the aroma of fermentation inside is suddenly intense countless times.

And in this aroma, there is also a bean aroma of the raw material itself.

This bean aroma is like a base, holding the fermented aroma rolling on the tongue, but it does not show the wind at all.

Between these two breaths, there is a trace of special aroma, like the aroma of wine, but it is inexplicable, which makes Lin Yilun involuntarily frown and distinguish it carefully.

It took him a long time to swallow the tempeh that had been chewed into bean paste.

Beside him, Zhao Jinmai and the others had already eaten several spoonfuls in a row.

Linghua chewed the tempeh and excitedly praised: "This tempeh is much better than the old godmother!" The more you chew, the better it tastes! ”

Wu Lei had already gone to the cupboard to get the bowl, and he was still looking back and asking, "Who wants rice?" ”

Huang Xiaoming only took one bite and ran to the storage room.

Soon, he took out a pack of Lu Province pancakes.

Unwrapping, he took out a pancake from it, folded it in half, and then held it in his hand to the tempeh pot.

Spooning the tempeh, he carefully poured it over the pancake and poured it into a long slip.

Then he rolled up the pancake, folded the bottom mouth up, sealed the bottom mouth, and lowered his head to bite the pancake.

Even the pancake with tempeh bit into his mouth, he chewed it heavily, with a satisfied face.

Seeing this, Linghua smiled and said, "Xiao Mingtai can eat, and he can still eat it with pancakes." ”

When Huang Xiaoming heard this, he chewed it a few times, swallowed the pancake in his mouth, and then explained: "This is normal!" My family has relatives in Heze, who will pickle beans in sauce, and they will be rolled in pancakes to eat. ”

As he spoke, he smiled at Li Yi and said: "This is better than soy beans, the flavor of tempeh is so good, as well as the aroma of glutinous chili peppers and the aroma of lard, it's too enjoyable to eat!" ”

"Did you taste that taste? A bit like a fermented base flavor of sake. ”

Lin Yilun asked them.

When Huang Xiaoming heard this, he touched it slightly, then nodded and said, "Yes, it's very delicious." ”

"I ate it in my first bite."

Linghua smiled: "Isn't this the taste of the earliest old godmother?" It's got to taste like this! ”

When Lin Yilun heard this, he was even more puzzled, so he asked Li Yi: "Why does this tempeh smell of wine?" ”

"It's koji."

Li Yi put the pot aside and explained: "Moutai's koji also has Bacillus subtilis, and it is a very important class of microorganisms.

Therefore, there are no soybeans in the raw materials of Moutai, but it can taste a hint of soy fragrance.

The smell of alcohol you eat is the taste of Bacillus subtilis. ”

"Really?"

Lin Yilun was even more surprised: "There is soy incense in Moutai? Why haven't I tasted it? Do you have Moutai here? ”

"Yes, in the pantry."

Huang Xiaoming said, pinched the pancake roll and tempeh, and while eating, he went to the storage room and took out a bottle of Moutai for Lin Yilun.

"Can I take a bite?"

Lin Yilun smiled: "I bought this bottle of wine." ”

"It's fine."

Huang Xiaoming said with a smile: "This bottle can be drunk tonight, so it should be for you to catch the wind." ”

"Okay."

Lin Yilun didn't say anything polite to him, so he was about to unscrew Moutai.

But as soon as he started, he stopped, then took out a small bottle of half-used mouthwash from his bag, turned around and walked out of the back kitchen, and explained, "I'll go out first." ”

After a while, he wiped the water from the corner of his mouth and returned to the back kitchen.

Returning to the desk, he explained, "I'm going to clear my mouth, don't string the taste." ”

As he spoke, he opened Moutai and poured a glass of wine from Moutai's own shot glass.

Picking up the wine, he lowered his head and sniffed, then closed his eyes and carefully distinguished.

After a while, he opened his eyes in confusion: "It smells like there is, but it's not clear." ”

After sniffing it again, he swallowed, then picked up his glass and drank it all.

Keeping the wine in his mouth, rolling back and forth in front of his tongue, he squinted to distinguish between them.

After a while, he swallowed the wine with a loud bang, and then smiled in surprise: "There is really a hint of soy sauce!" Ha ha! Absolutely! ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but pat Li Yi's arm.

At this moment, he was completely convinced of Li Yi's cooking skills.

Compared with Li Yi, he can be regarded as a cook at most, but Li Yi is a master at all, and he is not even a student in front of others!

Li Yi smiled, looked at the fried tempeh in the basin, and then signaled: "Okay, the base is fried, open the door!" If you are hungry for a while, the people outside will be against the sky. ”

Huang Xiaoming stuffed the last bite of pancake roll tempeh into his mouth, and walked to the front hall.

Soon, a boisterous burst of laughter filled the restaurant.
