Chef of the Metropolitan Water Superintendent Section 110
"It's not ravioli today, it's potstickers, so the way the filling is wrapped is different. But don't worry, the potstickers are much easier to make than the last wonton. Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look. ”
As he spoke, Zheng Wan took out a piece of dough from the board in front of him.
Place it in the palm of your hand, hold chopsticks in one hand, pick out the filling from the bowl, place it on the dough, and then use your hands to find the center point of the left and right ends of the dough, and squeeze the dough to the top of the filling.
Pinch the ends together to create a top that resembles a cabin, with holes on both sides to reveal the filling inside.
After she pinched it, she immediately showed the potsticker in her palm to the people around her, and explained in detail:
"The potstickers don't have to be closed completely, it's normal to expose the filling on both sides, and you don't have to worry about the filling leaking out when you cook it later. So you see, isn't the production method of this potsticker quite simple? ”
Hearing this, everyone nodded one after another, it was really the practice of potstickers in front of them that was beyond everyone's expectations, and the simplicity couldn't be simpler.
If it's the wontons they see on weekdays, they're really a little worried about the filling being too revealing and the shape of the pinched out is not beautiful.
But the potstickers in front of me don't even have to worry about the shape and the filling, but it's not very simple.
After seeing the finished products that Zheng Wan packed, they began to be moved one by one.
When Zheng Wan waved his hand and entrusted the affairs here to Xiao Ji, who had the best skills in the white case, everyone immediately began to make wontons under the leadership of Xiao Yun.
Zheng Wan switched to the other side and made the remaining leek egg filling.
As soon as the person in charge of scrambled eggs saw her figure appear, he immediately greeted her and asked, "Mrs. Zheng, are the eggs you make okay?" ”
"It's good, it looks like the egg wash poured in cold oil, your eggs are scrambled very loosely, it looks light in color, the taste should be very tender, and it's very good."
"Thank you for the compliment!"
The visitor didn't expect to get such a compliment, and he almost jumped up with the broken egg in his hand with joy.
Zheng Wan looked at her posture, quickly took the egg in his hand, and looked at the person holding the leek section on the side.
As soon as the other party noticed Zheng Wan's gaze, he immediately handed the leek segment in his hand to Zheng Wan and said:
"According to the lady's previous instructions, these leek segments are only mixed with a shallow layer of cooked oil, and nothing else is put in."
"That's good, the leeks are stirred in advance, and after adding salt, soy sauce and other seasonings, the internal water will be precipitated in advance, and the water will be stirred up, and the taste will not be good."
She took the leek bowl and immediately poured all the leeks into the crushed eggs, then added salt, soy sauce and shrimp skin powder to it and stirred well.
Put the stirred filling in front of the eyes of several people, and instructed:
"You guys also come over with the stuffing, let's make potstickers together, they need a little more people over there."
"Whoa."
Several people were still immersed in Zheng Wan's flowing movements, and when they suddenly heard such words, they immediately nodded subconsciously and said yes.
When Zheng Wan heard the response, she didn't care about this side anymore, she still had a lot of things to do.
First of all, I took a look at the soy milk that was being boiled, and at the current rate, it is estimated that by the time I start to eat it, these soy milk should also be cooled.
Then I went to see Jiang Man, who was in charge of taking out the stove, and found that she was actually cleaning the baking tray in the backyard, and immediately followed.
Jiang Man suddenly saw a pair of shoes appear in front of him, looked up suddenly, and found that it was Zheng Wan, and a dazzling smile immediately bloomed on his face.
"Lady, I'm washing the baking tray, and I'll be fine soon."
"These things are told to you, not that you should do them all alone, but that you can call everyone else together. For example, those who have already ground soy milk are still not as strong as everyone else. ”
"It's... It's a small mistake, and it won't be next time. ”
Jiang Man thought that Zheng Wan didn't like his slow speed, although it was not a scolding, but thinking of his stupid move, he was still annoyed, for fear that she would delay the supply of today's morning food, so her fault would be great.
Zheng Wan didn't expect that his words would actually make Jiang Man so scared, and said in a softer tone:
"It's not about your fault, it's about asking you not to put everything on your own shoulders next time, it's very hard."
When he spoke, he didn't forget to touch Jiang Man's head.
She understands very well that people like Jiang Man, who are similar to the bottom of the back kitchen, will always think too much about the words of others in front of them, for fear that she will offend others if she is not careful.
Therefore, she also pays a lot of attention to Jiang Man, but now it seems that the results are average, and she needs to continue to work hard in the future.
Then, choose to sit down directly opposite Jiang Man and wash these baking trays together.
Two men appeared in the back kitchen with a baking tray and immediately placed it on the stove.
As the water vapor gradually evaporates, bubbles continue to form inside the water droplets on the baking sheet, and a rapid message appears, making a piercing "hissing" sound.
Zheng Wan looked at the baking tray that was about to be baked, immediately stood up, looked at the people who were tightly wrapped with potstickers on the side of the board, and shouted:
"Now that you've got all the wrapped potstickers, you're ready to move on to the next step."
Hearing this, everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and rushed to bring the wrapped potstickers to Zheng Wan.
The main thing is that everyone remembers Zheng Wan's words just now, saying that these potstickers don't have to worry about revealing the filling, so everyone is very curious about how to cook these potstickers, and you can witness this scene with your own eyes when you stay by Zheng Wan's side.
For this job, everyone is rushing to do it.
As for those who have slow hands, they can only stay where they are and continue to wrap the potstickers, glancing at Zheng Wan's location from time to time.
Zheng Wan didn't notice everyone's careful thoughts in private, mainly because after the temperature of the baking tray in front of him rose, the water droplets on the surface quickly dried up.
She had to hurry up and use chopsticks to hold a piece of fat and spread it vigorously on the edges and corners of the baking sheet, so that the lard appeared evenly in every inch of space to prevent the potstickers from sticking later.
For this reason, she also did it herself, and at the same time mentioned Jiang Man next to her.
"Remember, be sure to grease everything and do it fast."
As she spoke, she stopped what she was doing, picked a random potsticker from the tray next to her, and put it directly into the baking tray.
Chapter 73: Potstickers (2)
The main reason is that there is no time for her to think about the specific taste, otherwise it is estimated that the baking tray in front of her will emit black smoke.
"Shhhh
The dough touches the hot baking tray and makes a pleasant sound quickly.
Everyone looked at the scene in front of them, wanting to see how Zheng Wan kept the fillings from falling apart and was able to cook them.
However, everyone soon realized that it seemed that Zheng Wan's speed was not fast, and hurriedly squatted down to help, and according to Zheng Wan's arrangement logic, the entire baking tray was stuffed with potstickers, leaving no gaps at all.
Zheng Wan pays attention to the state of the potstickers in the baking dish, and glances at the heat of the stove from time to time, making potstickers needs to fry the lower dough over low heat until golden brown and crispy, and it is most appropriate to use low heat.
After finishing it, don't forget to mention one or two, "After the potstickers are put on, everyone remember to use low heat. The thickness of the baking tray is already thin, the dough of the potstickers is very thin, and when the fire is large, it is easy to fry and blacken, so you can't eat it. ”
"Thank you for the mention."
Everyone nodded in understanding, their eyes locked on the baking tray in front of them.
As the temperature of the baking pan spreads to the potstickers, the bottom dough gradually cooks and hardens.
The water in the filling, which is then wrapped in the dough, begins to evaporate as the heat spreads, and while it is steamed, the filling is squeezed and formed.
A faint smell of meat, with the spreading water vapor began to spread around.
When everyone smelled the aroma of meat, they instantly aroused the gluttony in their stomachs, and stared at the baking tray in front of them with glowing eyes, looking forward to the moment when Zheng Wan said that it could be baked.
But he never thought that at this time, Zheng Wan, who was sitting on the stool, suddenly got up and left.
The crowd who were confused by the fragrance and the sight of them were still staring at the potstickers in front of them, and they were slow to react to the movement of Zheng Wan leaving.
Zheng Wan got up and came to the place where the dough and potstickers were being made.
When everyone saw her approaching, they asked curiously: "Zheng Niangzi, is this potsticker good?" ”
"It's not ripe yet, and there's still one last step to go."
After that, in the surprised eyes of everyone, she took out a bowl, scooped up some starch at random and put it in the bowl, rushed into cold water, and stirred the starch water with chopsticks.
Walking in the direction of the frying pan stickers, as soon as I got closer, I saw the scene where everyone was about to stick their heads on the baking sheet.
Zheng Wan hurriedly reminded: "Everyone go outside a little, now you have to pour starch water into it, and when you touch the high temperature of the baking tray later, be careful that the heat will burn yourself." ”
The sudden sound immediately shattered the beautiful picture imagined in the minds of a group of people.
A group of people hurriedly retreated, for fear that Zheng Wan's actions just now would be remembered by Zheng Wan, such behavior was not what they should have.
But at this time, everyone's minds were filled with this thought, and they couldn't think of the meaning of the second half of Zheng Wan's sentence for the time being.
Therefore, when Zheng Wan slowly poured the starch water in the bowl along the corner of the baking sheet, until the starch water submerged the bottom of the potstickers.
"Shh
When the hot baking tray met the impact of starch water, countless hot gases surged above the potstickers in an instant, and indiscriminately attacked everyone who wanted to get closer, and even the temperature of this small space in the back kitchen rose a lot.
Even if it is a person who is slow to react, under such a fierce attack, he subconsciously falls backwards.
Everyone only felt that they were under the cover of the heat, and the situation inside the baking tray had not been seen clearly, and Zheng Wan's instructions came again.
"Yu Niangzi, quickly bring the lid next to you."
"Whoa."
Before the other party could react, he subconsciously took the lid next to him and stretched it out to Zheng Wan's position.
In the next second, the baking pan, which was constantly steaming, was instantly covered by the lid.
Everyone also recovered from the shock they had just received, and so did Jiang Man, looking at the baking tray that was about to be his turn next, he hurriedly pulled the others back together, and took the lid in his hand by the way.
After Zheng Wan poured the starch water in, he closed the lid instantly, hiding all the steam and movement in the lid.
At this moment, everyone could not see anything, and could only guess the state of the inside by the sound of the baking tray.
At first, the sound was very intense, and there was no difference from when the starch water was just poured in.
But as time passed, the sound inside began to get quieter and quieter, and there was a feeling of silence.
At the same time, the burnt aroma that leaked out of the gap next to the lid became more and more intense, and the mellow aroma of the oil was mixed with the sweetness of corn and the rich aroma of leeks, which also hid a faint umami.
Everyone was intoxicated by the fragrance, and they became more and more curious about the current situation of the potstickers inside.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Zheng Wan lifted the lid, and in an instant, a richer fragrance rushed towards everyone's noses.
For a moment, everyone's eyes widened to feel the rich fragrance, and their eyes were firmly pressed against the situation in the baking dish.
Unlike what everyone imagined, even with the washing of starch water and the impact of boiling water vapor, the filling wrapped inside the potsticker was not affected at all, and it was still tightly attached to the dough.
At this time, you can also see some corners of the baking pan, and there are bubbles formed by starch water, bulging and exploding on one side.
