Chapter 743: Lifelike "Dragon Skin"
"Dragon scales... Burden? ”
Yang Shaoyue didn't understand, but she didn't care, so she raised her hand and pointed to the empty iron pot, and asked curiously, "Why don't you add water?" ”
"It's dry steaming."
Hao Libao on the side helped Li Yi explain: "Dry steaming is steaming without water, which is the same as making smoke and sugar smoking, but without sugar and smoke, it is dry pot burning."
In fact, the principle is the same as that of the oven, but Xiao Li is a dry steamed fish skin, and the heat must be controlled, so the pot is used to steam, and the heat can be adjusted at any time. ”
"Then it's the equivalent of drying it, right?"
Yang Shaoyue roughly understood.
"Almost."
Hao Libao nodded, and stepped forward to help Li Yi clean up together.
Soon, all the fish skin is put into the pot.
Li Yi stared at the stove, adjusting the flames of each stove from time to time.
Seeing Li Yi waving the gap in the lid of the pot with his hand and smelling the smell, Yang Shaoyue also stepped forward curiously to smell it, but only smelled a fishy smell of dried seafood, and it was a little nasal rush, so choking that she couldn't help coughing.
"This is so fishy!"
She stopped coughing and complained bitterly.
"It definitely doesn't smell good if it doesn't handle it well."
Li Yi smiled and quipped: "Besides, I'm judging the heat, what are you doing with it?" ”
“……”
Yang Shaoyue looked depressed, and then turned around and ran to Liu Yifei's side, hugged her arm and complained: "Sister Yifei, Brother Yi said me." ”
Liu Yifei smiled helplessly, then glanced at Li Yi and said, "Don't be like him." ”
"Okay."
"Okay."
Li Yi and Liu Yifei responded at the same time.
Hearing Li Yi's voice, Yang Shaoyue became more anxious, stomped his feet, and asked Liu Yifei: "Sister Yifei, who are you talking to?" ”
Liu Yifei pursed her lips and snickered, but she didn't answer.
Seeing Li Yi also smiling slightly, Yang Shaoyue became even more depressed.
"Just bully me! I'm not playing with you anymore. ”
After complaining, she turned around and ran behind Zhao Jinmai, who was cleaning the astragalus, hugged Zhao Jinmai's waist, rubbed her shoulder, and smiled: "It's still Maimai's sister who is the best, stick." ”
Zhao Jinmai raised his hands with a frightened expression, and his whole person tensed.
Laugh at~!
Accompanied by a wisp of clear smoke, a slightly charred smell of protein wafted out of the first pot.
After smelling this smell, Li Yi decisively turned off the heat and lifted the lid of the pot.
A thick puff of green smoke floated up, and then quickly dissipated, revealing the dragon bugger skin on the inner tray.
"Shhh
Hao Libao, who was behind Li Yi, saw the dragon straw skin in the pot clearly, and suddenly couldn't help but take a cool breath.
I saw that the pieces of dragon shell skin in the tray had been curled into a cylindrical shape, and the fish scales were blown up and erected above the fish skin, densely packed, and it looked very infiltrating.
After seeing these dragon skins, Hao Libao finally understood why Li Yi just said that it would look more impactful.
This state of dragon skin, is inevitably too impactful!
The cameraman also came to the front, taking a close-up of the dragon's skin.
When the audience in the live broadcast room saw this scene, the screen was suddenly full of "! ”。
“!!!”
"! What the hell is this? ”
"Shhh I feel so uncomfortable to watch! Get goosebumps all over your body! ”
"OCD almost died when I saw this scene."
"Ahh Why not give a reminder? ”
"This is very similar to the way my domestic fish look after they are fried! But much more serious. ”
"Mom! If this grows on me, I'll just strip my skin! No lie! ”
After smelling the smoke, Yang Shaoyue also ran back curiously.
But after seeing the dragon skin in the pot, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah! ”
Everyone in the back kitchen was startled by her exclamation and looked over one after another.
Yang Shaoyue stared at the dragon skins in the pot, and retreated again and again with a bitter face: "Mom! What is this? It's scary! ”
Seeing this, the rest of the rocket girls also ran over curiously.
When they saw the appearance of the dragon grouper, they were all taken aback.
"Emma! What's this? Why is it so scared of silver? ”
"It's scary, like the skin of a monster."
Li Yi ignored their discussions, but quickly put the freshly cooked dragon skins into the prepared basin of ice water on the side.
The hot skin of the dragon cater entered the ice water, and the whole skin quickly softened after hearing the sound of "zila".
Soak them in ice water and soak them for a while, and then Li Yi started to scrub them.
Under his scrubbing, the scales of the fish easily fell off, leaving only the skin full of pores underneath.
After dry steaming, the scales are expanded, and the pale black skin is stretched out with diamond-shaped scale holes.
When soaked in ice water, the skin of the fish instantly absorbs water, and the originally dry fibers are also soaked and separated, forming fiber filaments.
Looking at the dragon shell in Li Yi's hand, Hao Libao couldn't help but secretly marvel.
He hadn't seen what the real dragon skin looked like, but after seeing the dragon skins in Li Yi's hands, he had a feeling that the dragon skins should look like this!
Li Yi took the tweezers and carefully tore off the pale black film on the surface of the fish skin.
This is the mucosal layer formed by the mucus on the surface of the fish skin after drying, and the fishy smell is relatively strong, so it must be removed so as not to affect the taste of the finished product.
Soon, Li Yi disposed of a piece of dragon grouper skin and put it on the tray on the side.
After removing the scary scales and black membrane, the skin left behind is white and flawless, still maintaining a cylindrical shape, and the scale holes above are still clear, but it is a lot more "delicate".
Although it still has a strong visual impact, it is much better than the fried scaly dragon skin.
After seeing this piece of dragon skin, Yang Shaoyue dared to come forward again and took a closer look.
"So handsome!"
She looked at the scales on the dragon's skin, and couldn't help but exclaim, "How do I feel that it is a real dragon skin?" ”
"It's very similar!"
Wu Lei was also amazed on the side.
And Reba was holding his chin, and after some serious scrutiny, he came to a conclusion: "There are so many holes on it, it must be very flavorful when cooked." ”
Zhao Jinmai looked at it curiously, and asked Li Yi excitedly: "Brother Yi, can you make a taste?" ”
"Forget it."
Li Yi shook his head while dealing with it: "There are too few dragon skins, just this point, if you make one, you will have one less."
And it's too troublesome to make one, it's not cost-effective, so it's better to make it together tomorrow and eat it together.
Besides, aren't you all full of curly cuts? When you are full, your taste will become dull. ”
Hearing him say this, Zhao Jinmai no longer insisted, but looked forward to tomorrow's banquet a little more.
After watching the excitement, everyone went back to their homes and continued to get busy.
Li Yi and Hao Libao disposed of all the dragon skins together.
Putting the last piece of dragon skin in the tray, Hao Libao wiped his hands, looking at the lifelike "dragon skin" in the tray, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
As the executive chef of the State Guesthouse, he has countless apprentices and grandchildren, but it is the first time he has seen the dragon grouper skin processed into such a dish.
Sure enough, it is to live and learn, and the master is in the people!
Looking back at the busy back kitchen, he secretly made a decision.
Tomorrow he will bring a few more apprentices, so that those boys can also open their eyes and know what it means to know what it means to have people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky.
