Wujiang Town Yipinju Restaurant.

In the evening, Yan Yunhua returned to Yipinju Restaurant, and as soon as he came back, he went into the back kitchen and handed over the brine he found from outside to Chu Feng, who was busy in the back kitchen.

The process of making tofu is not complicated, the main ingredients are soybeans and brine, Zhou Dawa has already ground the soybeans, and now Yan Yunhua has also found brine, which can further process tofu.

"Xiaotian, the soybeans have been ground and the brine has been found, is it possible to develop tofu?" Yan Yunhua asked.

"Grandpa, although the kitchen god is already in a dream and told me about the development of tofu, I don't have any experience in operation after all, so I guess I need your help. Yan Nantian said.

"Naturally, our grandparents and grandchildren will tinker together. Yan Yunhua smiled, and then as if something sounded, he asked, "By the way, what are the Zhou family father and son busy with?"

"I asked the Zhou family father and son to train those children. Yan Nantian said.

"Xiaotian, you are really ready to let that group of half-grown children be responsible for promoting Yipinju. Yan Yunhua said with some surprise.

"Grandpa, those children are not laborers, and they can't help much at home, and it won't cost us a lot of money to hire them, is there a better helper than this?" Yan Nantian asked with a smile.

"Hmm. Yan Yunhua responded, although he still didn't think that some half-old children could have any way to promote Yipinju, but, as Yan Nantian just said, it doesn't cost much to hire these children, and it can't just be two meals, which is more than hiring adults.

"Grandpa, I am responsible for promoting the matter of Yipinju, I have already explained it to the father and son of the Zhou family, let's make zuò tofu for the two of us. Yan Nantian said.

"You're right, as long as you develop new ingredients and make delicious dishes, you are afraid that no customers will come to your door. Yan Yunhua muttered, and then also invested in the development of tofu.

In his previous life, Yan Nantian was a five-star chef, although he had made a lot of tofu dishes, but he had never made tofu himself, but he was familiar with the process of making tofu.

Yan Nantian first prepared a gauze, and then filtered the ground soybean milk with gauze to filter out the bean dregs in the soy milk, so that the tofu tasted better and more delicate.

Pour the strained soy milk into a thick-bottomed pot and boil, stir while cooking, skim off the foam on it, you can remove the beany smell of soybeans and make the tofu better.

After the soy milk is cooked, it will be dried to 8o-9o degrees, and a layer of yellow skin will form on the surface of the soymilk, which can be stirred with salt and brine, and gradually the soymilk will condense inside.

After stirring for a while, the bean curd is dried for another quarter of an hour, then placed in a pre-prepared mold, wrapped in gauze, pressed for a quarter of an hour, and the tofu is ready to be formed.

Of course, it's quite easy to say, but it's not easy to do, and there are many details to pay attention to, once you have it in place, it is difficult to make qualified tofu.

At the beginning, Yan Yunhua's ancestors and grandchildren did not do it very smoothly, they could only be regarded as semi-finished tofu, and they did not make qualified tofu.

After making the tofu for the fourth time, Yan Nantian took a deep breath, carefully uncovered the gauze, and saw that the white tofu was placed in the mold, and the boxy shape was quite strong.

Seeing that the tofu was formed this time, Yan Nantian showed a smile, and then took out a knife, cut off a piece of tofu and tasted it, and the smile on his face became even stronger.

For the taste of tofu made this time, Yan Nantian can be said to be quite satisfied, cut a piece with a knife, handed it to Yan Yunhua on the side, and said:

"Grandpa, I think this time is good, you can try it. ”

"Okay, I'll try it. ”

Yan Yunhua responded, then put the tofu in his mouth, and after chewing it in his mouth, his face showed a look of surprise, and said: "The taste is sweet, the taste is soft, and it melts in the mouth, it is really a good ingredient!"

"Good things, really good things, with such ingredients, are you afraid that Yipinju will not be able to revitalize!" Yan Yunhua became more and more excited the more he spoke, and walked straight to the table, grabbed another piece of tofu with his hand, and put it in his mouth to eat.

The tofu that has just been made has not been seasoned or cooked, and it does not have any special taste in itself, nor is it delicious.

However, it is precisely because the taste of tofu itself is not large, and it is easier to absorb the taste of various spices, so that the chef can cook more casually.

In other words, the ingredient is like a piece of paper, the chef is like a painter, and the tofu is like a blank sheet of paper without any impurities, allowing the chef to create at will.

What's more, the taste of tofu is similar to that of meat, and dishes made with tofu can definitely be popular when it can be used as a substitute for meat from a certain amount of dù.

Seeing Yan Yunhua so excited, Yan Nantian couldn't help but show a smile, he himself was from the earth, and he had long been accustomed to tofu, and he didn't think it was a big deal.

However, in this other world where the kitchen is respected, tofu is an unprecedented material, as the so-called rare is expensive, Yan Yunhua can be so excited, it is not incomprehensible.

But in the blink of an eye, Yan Yunhua grabbed it with his hand and ate most of the bowl of tofu, Yan Nantian was afraid that his grandfather would be choked, so he hurriedly stopped Yan Yunhua, and said with some tears and laughter: "Grandpa, don't be in a hurry to eat it first, the current tofu is just an ingredient, and it needs to be made into delicious dishes." ”

"Yes, you're right, with such God-given ingredients, you will definitely be able to make the world's best deliciousness. Yan Yunhua touched his mouth, wiped the tofu residue off his lips, and said excitedly.

Yan Yunhua took a few deep breaths, suppressed the joy and excitement in his heart, and analyzed: "Tofu is an ingredient that tastes somewhat similar to pork, but it is softer than pork. ”

Seeing Yan Yunhua talking to himself, Yan Nantian couldn't help but interrupt the other party and said, "Grandpa, I have an idea in my heart, I can make a tofu delicacy, why don't you let me try it?"

"...... you" Hearing Yan Nantian's words, Yan Yunhua said with some suspicion: "Can you do it?"

Yan Yunhua's suspicion is not unreasonable, although tofu has been made now, but tofu is still just an ingredient, if you want to make food from the ingredients, you also need to develop a suitable recipe, which is not a simple matter.

Because each ingredient has its own characteristics, only after many attempts, after many times of collocation and tasting, can we slowly study the recipe, which is possible overnight.

"Grandpa, don't forget, I made this tofu. Yan Nantian shook his head slightly and said.

"That's ......" Yan Yunhua pondered for a moment and muttered: "Could it be that the master of the kitchen god not only told you how to make tofu, but also told you about the dishes of tofu?"

Yan Nantian smiled and didn't say much, there are not a hundred or eighty kinds of dishes related to tofu on the earth, Yan Nantian picked out one at random, it was some amazing food, and where did he need to develop any recipes.

"Xiaotian, in addition to the main ingredient of tofu, what other seasonings do you need for this dish you want to make, grandpa will help you prepare it. Yan Yunhua said.

"Grandpa, I still need peppercorns, green onions, ginger, garlic, bean paste, ......" Yan Nantian pondered for a moment, and told Yan Yunhua several seasonings that are available in this world one by one.

"Okay, I'll go get ready. Yan Yunhua responded, and didn't mind giving his grandson a hand, so he immediately lit a fire on the stove and looked for spices for Yan Nantian.

Yan Nantian was not idle, took out a piece of tofu from the mold, then cut it into cubes, and soaked it in salt water for a while to remove the smell of beans.

After the fire on the stove, Yan Nantian preheated the wok, and then put in the prepared oil, followed by pepper, green onion, ginger, garlic and other seasonings, and then put in the bean paste, and the soup was half-cooked before putting in the tofu.

In fact, Yan Nantian's dish also needs some other seasonings, but it is not found in the kitchen, and Yan Nantian can't pay too much attention to it, so he can only find similar ingredients to match.

Looking at Yan Nantian's skillful cooking skills and the aroma in the pot, Yan Yunhua nodded secretly, looking forward to this tofu dish.

After a while, Yan Nantian put the dish on a plate and sprinkled a layer of chopped green onions on the surface, red soup, white tofu, and green green onions, which can be called colorful, flavorful.

Yan Yunhua looked at the dishes, sniffed the aroma with his nose, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Xiaotian, you have done a good job of this dish, but what is the name?"

"Grandpa, what do you think of calling mapo tofu?" Yan Nantian asked with a smile.

"Mapo tofu?"

Yan Yunhua pondered for a moment, looked at the dish again, nodded and said, "Well, this name is good, and it is quite appropriate for this dish, but the most important thing is how the dish tastes?"

"Grandpa, then you can taste it when you are old. Yan Nantian made a gesture of please and said.

"Hmm. Yan Yunhua responded, with a solemn look on his face, he wanted to taste not only the quality of this dish, but also whether the tofu is suitable for cooking, the flavor of the tofu, and the characteristics of the tofu itself.

Yan Nantian picked up a pair of chopsticks, took a piece of tofu and put it in his mouth, chewed it for a while, was stunned for a while, and then the expression on his face became richer, his eyes bloomed with fine light, and he shouted loudly:

"Good, good, good!"
