Chapter 192 Huo Yifan wants to make white-robed shrimps? So what are you waiting for? Study!(3/3)
"I really admire you..."
At this moment, he had squeezed out all the shrimps he wanted to use.
Then he took the basin filled with shrimps, filled half the basin of water, and washed the shrimps carefully.
The biggest difficulty in the White Robe Shrimp dish is actually not making the shrimps, but how to keep the shrimps white in color while cooking.
The prepared shrimps should be as white as snow.
There cannot be any variegated colors to be considered qualified.
In order to achieve this goal, the shrimps must be washed twice as much as possible, and even scratched with flour, and the adsorption of flour can be used to wash away the dirt on the surface of the shrimps.
"Then what?"
"Then start marinating... The white robe of the white robe shrimp dish is actually to make the egg white until it is about to foam, then add some starch powder and stir evenly, and then hang it on the shrimp for cooking, because it looks like it is wearing a robe.
There are layers of white robes, so the name white robe shrimps came into being.”
Oh?
It turns out that this is the origin of the name of the dish.
I thought it was made in a concocted way.
Today Huo Yifan used the top-quality Taihu prawns. The shrimps are clean and translucent, and there is no need to use flour to wash them.
He washed both sides and controlled the water.
Then pour it onto a tray covered with kitchen paper, cover it with another layer of kitchen paper, and dry the moisture on the surface in this way.
Then put the shrimps into the basin again and start marinating.
"How should these shrimps be marinated?"
"Just use onion and ginger salt water."
After Huo Yifan finished speaking, he took the onion and ginger water prepared in advance, added some salt to it, stirred it gently, and then poured it into the shrimp after the salt melted.
Then stir the shrimp again so that the onion and ginger water fully coats the shrimp.
Then he put the shrimps in the refrigerator compartment.
"After the shrimps are refrigerated, the moisture will shrink in, which can make the pickling effect better. If you are in a hurry to cook, you can also put it in the freezer for six or seven minutes, and the same effect can be achieved."
Tsk tsk, luckily I came here shamelessly.
Otherwise, where can I learn these knowledge points?
Although it can sometimes be obtained through system tasks, no matter how much the system gives, there is still no sense of accomplishment like learning.
Lin Xu wrote it down carefully.
Seeing Huo Yifan starting to beat the egg whites, he asked:
"Are you ready to hang up in the lake?"
"Yes, add cornstarch to the egg whites and beat until the egg whites are no longer stiff... Do you want to learn this too? Isn't egg whites the most basic way to adjust the egg whites?"
Really?
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"I just asked casually to see if you know... You go ahead and let me see how my vegetables are pickled."
Huo Yifan asked curiously:
"What did you cook?"
"Steamed shredded radish with rice flour."
When he heard this name, Huo Yifan thought of the steamed vegetables that his elders loved to make.
Steam the shredded radish or vegetable leaves that are thickly coated in starch, shake them up after taking them out of the pot, then mix them with sesame oil and garlic paste and serve on a plate.
Isn’t it?
This is a competition to enter the semi-finals. You actually cooked such a dish. Are you planning to give up?
Huo Yifan felt that he could not understand this genius more and more.
Lin Xu returned to his stove and pulled out the shredded radish. The water had been driven out by the salt water. When he was pulled out of the water, it seemed like he was lifting a handful of transparent hair.
Carefully put the shredded radish into clean water and wash it twice.
Wash off excess salt water.
Then use kitchen paper to dry the water on the surface, spread it in a bamboo basket, and blow it with a fan.
On the other side, Huo Yifan beat the egg whites into a basin, added two handfuls of dry starch, and then added a small spoonful of salt.
Then I took three kuaizi sticks and started beating the egg whites.
The more he thought about it, the less he understood Lin Xu’s motives and reasons for making shredded radish.
Why don't you go take a look at his stove?
As soon as this idea was formed in my mind, I couldn't get rid of it. I really wanted to see what Lin Xu was cooking.
He just went to see mine, so I should also go see his, right?
Thought of this.
He held the basin and walked to Lin Xu's stove while beating egg whites.
After arriving.
I happened to see Lin Xu spreading shredded radish in a bamboo basket.
I'm going!
It’s actually cut so finely.
Is this shredded radish?
I almost thought you brought someone’s wig here.
I really can’t believe what a genius says.
Originally, he thought that this round of white-robed shrimps should be able to win over Lin Xu by a small margin. After all, this dish is both good-looking and delicious.
But after seeing those radish shreds in the bamboo basket.
He gave up the idea.
There is no comparison. This knife skill alone can scare away countless chefs. I don’t know how to cut this pervert. It’s so frustrating...
Lin Xu spread out the shredded radish, and when he saw Huo Yifan coming over, he quickly asked:
"You are here just in time. I have another question to ask you. What should I do if the squeezed shrimp cannot be washed clean with flour?"
Huo Yifan: "..."
Don't ask me, I don't know!
I'm so stupid, really, I only knew that Lin Xu's cooking skills were very good and he loved to learn, but I didn't know that he was actually good at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger...
Damn it, he tricked me again!
