Chapter 464 Chen Meijuan: Isn’t it too much to say Versailles in front of your son? Take the whole duck off the bones!(2/2)
"Eat, you can eat."
Chen Meijuan took out the meatballs from the pot and said to herself:
"Since I don't use the ground pot in my hometown in the countryside, I can't even give the Stove Lord a taste."
She put a few meatballs into a bowl and raised them towards the southeast. This was not superstition, but a wish for a happy life, hoping that the current happy life could be maintained.
When she put the bowl down, Lin Xu put a meatball into a small bowl and handed it to Shen Jiayue:
"Let's try it. If I had to wait until I was a kid, I would have already been slapped."
Shen Jiayue smiled:
"Let you compete with the Stove Lord for food."
The meatballs are large and exude the unique aroma of fried vermicelli. When you use the kuaizi to open them, the aroma of meat comes out from the inside of the meatballs.
The vermicelli inside is crystal clear and has a ruddy color due to the addition of dark soy sauce.
No matter how it looks or tastes, it's like taking out the vermicelli from the pork vermicelli stew to make this delicious dish.
Pick up a piece and put it into your mouth to bite. The fragrant and crispy texture of the meatball skin will make people feel a sense of happiness inexplicably.
Vermicelli is a chewy delicacy. It becomes crispy and crispy after being fried, and it is rich in broth, so it has a very rich flavor.
This kind of aroma is stronger than ordinary fried food and tastes delicious.
The vermicelli inside is fragrant, soft and chewy, with a smooth texture. The aroma of onions and meat are intertwined, and it really feels like eating meatballs.
"It's delicious. Mom's cooking is great!"
If today we were to select the most popular daughter-in-law for her mother-in-law, Shen Jiayue would definitely be selected successfully. Her little mouth is as sweet as honey, and she praises her mother-in-law in different ways.
Chen Meijuan smiled and said:
"The freshly fried ones taste crisper. Let them cool down and steam them to bring out the aroma of the broth, making them more delicious."
"Hmm...can it still be steamed? Let's steam it and eat it this afternoon."
"Okay, my daughter-in-law wants to eat it, so let's steam it."
After the second pot was fried, Chen Meijuan saw that Shen Jiayue liked to eat the crispy skin on the outside of the vermicelli balls, so she randomly grabbed a small ball of vermicelli filling from the basin with her hands, dipped her hands in water, patted it, flattened it and threw it into the pot.<
/p>
This kind of vermicelli cake is thinner, has a larger surface area, and has a crispier texture when fried.
When she put it on the plate, her daughter-in-law immediately had little stars in her eyes:
"Thank you, Mom! No, I have to post it on WeChat to show off, this is crispy and crispy, it tastes absolutely amazing!"
Hum hum, get out of the way, I want to show off my mother-in-law!
There are many people in the circle who don’t have a partner. Although Yan Bao has a partner, Professor Tian’s cooking skills are probably about the same as Yan Bao’s, so my mother-in-law is the ceiling. No one objects to this, right?
After serving, she picked up the vermicelli cake with a kuaizi and tasted it. It was very crispy, like fried short-cut pork.
While eating, Chen Yan's voice sounded outside the kitchen:
"Yueyue, we all know that Aunt Chen is a good cook, but there's no need for you to be a slut, right? Pay attention to your face and absorb your taste."
Chen Yan walked in and greeted Chen Meijuan sweetly:
"Hello Aunt Chen!"
"Hello Xiaoyan, stop standing and eat while it's hot. Xiaoxu and Yueyue have been eating for a long time. The meatballs are soft and the pancakes are crispy. Take whichever you want."
Chen Yan originally wanted to be reserved, but when she saw her cousin's mouth full of oil after eating, and was aroused by the smell of vermicelli balls, she didn't hesitate to pick one up and took a bite:
"Wow, it smells so good. No wonder Yueyue enjoys it so much. Aunt Chen's craftsmanship is really amazing."
Chen Meijuan smiled and said:
"As long as you like to eat, it's fine. When I came here, I was worried that you wouldn't like to eat... By the way, I'll give Yuanyuan some after eating. This girl knew I was coming, so she sent a message two days ago.
I want to eat big meatballs."
"Okay, I'll turn over to No. 4 Middle School when I go to the company later."
Speaking of the company, Chen Yan talked about business:
"Xiaoqi and the others just did a test. The image transmission signal and camera position are all fine. You can start recording at any time... By the way, Boss Huang asked me to ask you what materials you need. He will send them over later."<
/p>
After learning that Zeng Xiaoqi and the others had resigned, Lao Huang immediately signed an ingredient supply agreement with Chen Yan. He would provide the ingredients for all food programs in the future. When the number of broadcasts increased, he could even pay for it.
You should spend money on advertising.
Lin Xu thought for a while and said:
"Just use a tender duck that has been bled and shed its feathers. Do not disembowel it. This method requires the whole duck to be deboned. If the duck is disemboweled, the bones cannot be removed, and the essence of the gourd duck is lost."
Chen Yan nodded:
"Okay, I'll send him a message later...what else do you want besides ducks?"
"You also need soaked sea cucumbers, scallops, hoof tendons, shrimps, flower stalks, winter bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, ham... This is not fixed, as long as it is eight kinds of more expensive fillings, and glutinous rice needs to be soaked overnight.
I can just take it from the store, it will definitely be too late to prepare it now."
The difficulty in the delicacy of Babao Gourd Duck lies in deboning the whole duck and shaping the duck. As for the filling itself, it is not that particular.
To put it simply, this is a salty rice dumpling with whole duck skin.
The filling is not important, how to wrap it in and achieve the desired effect is the focus of the dish.
Of course, filling the stuffing is also very important. If it is filled too full, the duck skin will burst. If it is underfilled, the gourd shape will not rise. This requires a certain amount of operating experience.
In addition to ingredients, you also need seasonings such as lard, sugar, syrup, and chicken soup. In addition, you also need to prepare two ingredients: carrots and lettuce.
Carrots and lettuce are not used for cooking, but are used to carve into small gourds for decoration.
The combination of green and red small gourds can improve the appearance of the dishes.
Good food must not only be delicious, but also must be "pleasing to the eye". Only in this way can it be considered a dish with good color, flavor and taste.
Chen Yan stuffed the remaining half of the meatball into her mouth, chewed it twice, and muttered with unclear words:
"This time I cook the same dish as the TV station. I don't know if I can surpass the other party."
Shen Jiayue looked at Lin Xu and asked:
"Xubao, we won't lose, right?"
Lin Xu smiled:
"Don't worry, it won't be a big problem unless they invite the master and the retired seniors from Diaoyutai. As for the others, I'm still worthy."
Although he does not have perfect cooking techniques, Lin Xu has the bone-breaking technique and his knife skills are so good, there is absolutely no problem in making the eight-treasure gourd duck.
Several people were eating while talking, and when the meatballs were fried, they were all full.
Chen Meijuan smiled and said:
"Eating around the stove is just like when I was a kid."
Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"It's different. When I was young, it wasn't so lively without Yan Bao and me."
After eating the meatballs, Lin Xu went to the big kitchen next door to get a few bowls of hot and sour soup to relieve the greasy feeling caused by the vermicelli meatballs.
After eating and drinking, he took the eight-treasure stuffing and the vermicelli balls packed by Chen Meijuan, drove to No. 4 Middle School, delivered the meatballs to Sister Yuanyuan, and then went to the company to prepare the eight-treasure gourd duck.
recording.
When I arrived at the company, Xie Baomin and Qi Zhentao, who participated in the recording, had already arrived.
New platform, new venue, new program, so the lineup must be full.
This time, we directly invited the number one cook in Diaoyutai and the technical chef of Yanjing Hotel. Together with Lin Xu, the founder of Linji Food, it was a complete combination of strength and good looks.
And arranged together like this, it also gives people the impression that Linji Food and Yanjing Hotel Diaoyutai are of the same grade.
This was deliberately arranged by Zeng Xiaoqi.
Lin Xu supports her work so much. As the general manager of the program team, she naturally wants to help Lin Ji with publicity.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Lao Huang delivered the tender duck to be used, and the recording work officially began!
