Hearing Li Yi's words, the slightly older northern viewers in the live broadcast room all sent barrages to explain together.

"It's really like this, the soup cooked by the real handmade Lantern Festival is white and thick, and the soup cooked from the Lantern Festival bought in the supermarket is clear."

"When I was a child, I did Lantern Festival with my family, and rolling Lantern Festival is also skillful, I can only turn in one direction, otherwise it won't be round."

"It's really hard to buy the handmade Lantern Festival like it used to be now, unless you go to the township to buy it, all the ones sold in the city are quick-frozen, and they don't smell that at all."

"In the past, the handmade Lantern Festival was round and big after cooking, and it tasted soft and sweet, but now the frozen goods really don't taste that good."

"We have frozen handmade lanterns sold here, but they are not available until the season, and usually only dumplings are sold."

Under the audience's explanation, Li Yi has reconciled the noodles.

Covering the noodles, he explained: "There are two ways to make glutinous rice noodles with rice balls, one is semi-hot noodles and the other is warm water noodles.

Semi-blanched noodles are blanched with boiling water first, and the rest of the noodles are blanched with warm water.

This kind of semi-hot noodles can quickly bring out the gluten in the flour and can be easily opened.

However, semi-hot noodles need to be kneaded evenly, otherwise the texture of the noodles will be uneven, and it will be easy to open when cooking, revealing the filling.

Another way to make peace is to use warm water and noodles like I did.

It takes a lot of effort to use warm water and dough, and it takes a longer time to knead the tendons.

But the advantage is that the texture of the kneaded dough is relatively uniform, as long as you pay attention to the good technique when wrapping, you don't have to worry about opening and revealing the filling. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Jinmai and the others on the side.

In front of them, several plates of [salted egg yolk wontons] have been wrapped.

Seeing this, Li Yi set up the iron pot, added half a pot of water to the pot, and opened the fire to burn.

"Let the glutinous rice noodles wake up for a while, let's cook these wontons."

Li Yi asked Huang Xiaoming to take a bunch of small bowls and put them next to the desk, and then explained to the stall owner: "Wonton soup is best boiled with pork bones and duck racks, which is more time-consuming, so let's replace it with water for the time being."

The method of adjusting its soup is similar to the common wonton method, the bottom mouth is given salt, shrimp skin, seaweed, coriander, chopped green onions, these are just the right amount, there is no bone broth, let's put less monosodium glutamate to increase umami. ”

Li Yi said, while demonstrating the ingredients of the soup base to Huang Xiaoming and them.

After putting the ingredients just mentioned in the bowls, Li Yi took the two bowls and reminded the stall owner: "Note, when mixing soup, you can make two kinds of soup, one is red soup with soy sauce, and the other is white soup with boiled wontons."

Add a spoonful of lard to the red soup and a spoonful of duck fat to the white soup, which is the key to the flavor of the soup base.

In addition, after the wontons are finally taken out and put in a bowl, some pepper should be sprinkled, which is also the key to enhancing the flavor.

Sprinkle black pepper on red soup and white pepper on white soup, don't do it the other way around. ”

While speaking, Li Yi prepared several bowls of soup base in turn.

Seeing that Huang Xiaoming and the others had learned, he gave up his position, served the [Salted Egg Yolk Wonton], returned to the pot, and went down into the pot in turn.

The wontons ripen quickly, and when the skin becomes transparent, it means that the filling inside is cooked.

The wontons were served out with a large colander and Li Yi put them into small bowls in turn, only one in each bowl.

He then scooped up the soup from the pot with a frying spoon and poured it into a small bowl.

As the noodle soup washes away the bottom seasoning, bowls of red soup and white soup wontons appear.

The ravioli floated up, and the full belly flipped upside down.

Beneath the translucent wonton wrapper, the golden egg yolk seems to be a hidden gold mine, exuding an alluring charm.

Huang Xiaoming and Wu Lei sprinkled pepper into the bowl in turn according to Li Yi's statement, and then brought the small bowl to the stall owners.

Seeing Deputy Director Wang and others looking at him with their necks stretched out from behind, Li Yi glanced at him when he saw Wu Lei coming back.

Wu Lei looked back, comprehended, and quickly brought a few small bowls to Deputy Director Wang and sent them over.

Seeing the steaming wontons in front of them, Deputy Director Wang and the others immediately swallowed their saliva in unison.

"Secretary Yan, can you taste it first?"

Deputy Director Wang warmly invited.

Secretary Yan was a little polite, and brought over a bowl of white soup wontons.

Looking at the ravioli in the bowl, he couldn't help but take a soft breath.

The golden duck fat floats on the soup noodles, mixed with chopped green onions and coriander, and it is very attractive to have a golden and turquoise color.

And the plump wontons also generously display the treasures in the belly, golden and attractive.

And the white pepper further stimulates the aroma of the duck fat itself, like a wisp, seducing his appetite.

Smelling this aroma, Secretary Yan couldn't help it.

The Adam's apple shook, and he picked up the spoon in the bowl and scooped up the only large wonton in the bowl.

Blowing lightly, he took a bite of it.

And after his teeth bit through the thin wonton skin, a stream of fresh soup rushed out with a "pop".

The temperature of the soup was not low, and he hurriedly sucked in the air, trying to lower the temperature of the soup.

Soon, after the piping hot, the deliciousness of the soup came to the fore.

The rich gravy of pork is mixed with the unique flavor of salted duck eggs.

The combination of these two ingredients is a little strange, but they don't clash at all, and the fragrance is wonderful.

The teeth continued to fall, and the pork filling that had coalesced into meatballs was sliced.

And after penetrating the pork filling, a dense touch comes back from the tips of the teeth.

It's like a freshly cooked bean paste, and like a dense cream, squeezed by the pressure of your teeth, and a thick salted egg yolk gushes out.

As the salted mayonnaise gushed out, the aroma of the salted egg yolk instantly became countless times stronger.

"Hmm..."

Secretary Yan's eyes widened suddenly, and he subconsciously chewed half of the wonton in his mouth, only to feel that the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became, and the aroma of salted egg yolk became stronger and stronger.

This tastes...

He looked at the ravioli in the spoon in surprise.

The ravioli that has been bitten open reveals the filling inside of it.

Surrounded by thin white wonton wrappers, red pork balls condensed at the top, a little green onion mixed with, and a fine salted egg yolk like golden sand below.

Together, these colors and ingredients are almost works of art.

"Secretary Yan, how does it taste?"

Deputy Director Wang hadn't eaten yet, and when he saw Secretary Yan's surprised face, he opened his mouth to ask.

Secretary Yan didn't answer, just chewed the wontons in his mouth carefully, squinted and tasted them, swallowed them in one gulp, and then exclaimed: "It's delicious!" This tastes amazing! ”

As he spoke, he put the remaining half of the wonton into his mouth and chewed it heavily.

In the remaining half of the wonton, there are more salted egg yolks.

Chewing a mouthful of wontons, Secretary Yan wanted to dance with his eyebrows, but he suppressed his impulse and looked very awkward.

Swallowing the wonton in his mouth, he drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "It's delicious, the soup is fresh, but there is only one, it's too enjoyable to eat." ”

After speaking, he smacked his lips, and as soon as his eyes turned, he fell on the red soup wonton bowl in Deputy Director Wang's hand.

Seeing this, Deputy Director Wang couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked down at the bowl he had just picked up, a little reluctant.

But after hesitating, he still handed the bowl to Secretary Yan and said with a smile: "Secretary Yan, you are tired, can you taste this bowl of red soup again?" ”
