Chapter 606: Everything can be candied haws! The memories of the older generation in the Northeast - crispy yellow vegetables!(2/3)

Wei Qian looked at him like a fool:

"The crispy yellow cabbage from the Northeast. When the conditions in the Northeast were good, we were thinking of ways to make delicious dishes. This crispy yellow cabbage is one of them."

When material conditions were abundant, ordinary scrambled eggs and boiled eggs were completely boring, so some chefs came up with dishes like crispy yellow vegetables.

In fact, cooking can best reflect the real material level of the place.

Especially in the past, it was not easy to make sweets, so wherever there are many desserts and people can afford sweets, it means that the local life is rich and the material conditions are rich.

For example, the Yangtze River Delta region was very prosperous during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, so sugar was used as a daily condiment there. No matter what dishes were cooked, some sugar should be added.

Why did you form this eating habit? Because you have money.

In addition to the Yangtze River Delta, Sichuan cuisine also has this pattern.

The Shanghe area of ​​Sichuan cuisine is centered in Rongcheng, where officials and wealthy businessmen live, so the dishes are light and there are many desserts.

Xiahe Gang is eaten by the poor, and it is mostly spicy. The ingredients are mostly offal and other offal materials discarded by the upper class, and there are very few desserts.

In the Northeast after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the reason why desserts such as ladies' dishes are rampant and everything can be eaten with candied haws is also because of the rich material conditions.

At that time, when other places could not get enough of whole grains, the Northeast had already entered the industrial age.

Later, Northeastern factories moved across the country, and Northeastern workers followed the factories and settled all over the country.

To this day, no matter where in the country there are large state-owned industrial factories, even those that were once state-owned, there are still Northeastern workers in the factory areas, and Northeastern accents can be heard from time to time in nearby residential areas.

Zhu Yong looked at Lin Xu and asked curiously:

"Boss, your recent high-end Northeastern dishes have set off a craze for learning Northeastern cuisine on the Internet. Will this crispy yellow dish also be made into a video?"

Lin Xu nodded:

"I'll take a photo tomorrow if I have some time. Taking advantage of the excitement among netizens, I'll take a photo of a more laborious Northeastern dish."

From snowy bean paste to crispy white meat, and now crispy yellow vegetables, they are all products of the period when Northeast China had abundant material conditions.

However, just making dessert dishes is not enough. Some relatively high-end savory dishes must be made, so that young netizens can see the living standards of Northeastern people half a century ago.

Although hunting of wild animals is now prohibited, most high-end Northeastern dishes cannot be prepared.

But there are also some dishes that can be cooked.

For example, the bear paw substitute for steamed bear paw, a famous Northeastern dish, although it is not made from real bear paw, the taste and texture are still not inferior, and many people who have eaten it say it is unforgettable.

Lin Xu set up the wok and started frying sugar again.

When the stir-fry reaches the shredded state, add the crispy yellow cabbage and stir-fry until it is done. Then use a spoon to scrape the syrup on the bottom of the pot and turn it regularly on the plate a few times to make fluffy streaks appear on the top of the crispy yellow cabbage. Gold wire.

There was a lot of crispy cabbage prepared today, so Lin Xu served a large plate and two small plates.

The big plate will be brought to the private room later, and the two small plates will be given to the chef in the back kitchen and the waiter at the front desk.

"Wei Gan, I've given this plate to you, all have a try."

"Okay, just leave it there. We'll make some ourselves when there's not enough food."

At the level of Wei Gan and Zhu Yong, although many dishes have never been heard of, as long as you know how to make them, you can basically recreate them.

Lin Xu came outside with two plates, happened to bump into Shu Yun, and handed the small plate over:

"This plate of freshly prepared crispy yellow vegetables belongs to you. Let everyone try it. If it's not enough, let the kitchen cook make it. This will give them a chance to practice."

"Wow, what a beautiful dish, thank you boss."

Shu Yun was very moved. Every time he cooked a rare dish that was not often eaten, the boss never forgot to serve everyone a portion. This kind of treatment is rare in the entire Yanjing city, right?

Last time, a netizen asked why Lin Kee’s employees were so energetic.

Shu Yun felt that the plate of crispy yellow vegetables in front of him was the answer.

Lin Xu came upstairs with a large plate full of crispy yellow vegetables. As soon as he opened the door, there was an exclamation from inside.

Everyone knows that there is a new dish, and Xie Baomin even analyzed it as a dessert dish.

But when I saw the rhombuses hanging with gold threads on the plate, my eyes widened. I felt that this dish was more high-end than snowy bean paste and crispy white meat.

“What a beautiful dish!”

"It's like a piece of art, I'm reluctant to eat it."

"Brother-in-law, what kind of dish is this?"

When Chen Yan asked, Su Peipei also turned to look at her husband, wanting to know the answer.

Xie Baomin didn't show off and said with a smile:

"This is a crispy yellow vegetable from Northeast China. It is made with eggs. The cooking method is somewhat similar to the croissant honey you ate years ago."

Sheep's horn honey is made by stacking the dough together, cutting it into crescent shapes and frying it in a pan to fill the middle with air. The method is really similar to the crispy yellow cabbage.

However, the yellow cabbage is filled with sugar at the end, while the horn honey uses the principle of thermal expansion and contraction to fill it with honey juice, so the final texture and taste are different.

When everyone heard that it was made with eggs, they felt even more incredible.

Shen Guofu was no stranger to this dish. He smiled and said:

"Back then, I accompanied the old lady back to Northeast China and specially ate crispy yellow vegetables. The old lady wiped her tears while eating. She hadn't eaten it for many years and her heart was full of memories... Xiaoxu took the time to cook it for her grandma again, so that the old lady could make it again. Try it."

"Okay, I will go to grandma's house with Yueyue to cook this dish tomorrow."

Han Shuzhen prefers to eat this kind of dessert dish. She picked up a piece and brought it to her mouth to taste it. It was sweet in the mouth and crunchy when she took a bite. The egg flavor was rich.

And because a little bit of salt was added when beating the eggs, there was suddenly a hint of saltiness under the sweetness, making the whole dish immediately richer in flavor.

“It’s so crispy and delicious!”

The biggest feature of crispy cabbage is that it is crispy, and the cooler it gets, the crispier it gets. Especially after the syrup on the outside condenses into glaze, it tastes crispy and crispy, which is extremely delicious.

Zeng Xiaoqi took a bite, looked at Lin Xu and asked:

"Can this dish be made on our show?"

Lin Xu shook his head:

"I'm going to shoot a video tomorrow to make a collection of the high-end Northeastern dishes I made before. With the addition of crispy yellow vegetables, there are already three sweet dishes, and the next one will be salty."

As soon as Shen Jiayue heard about the filming, she immediately started making plans.

Eat it once today, eat it once at grandma's house tomorrow, and eat it again during the filming.

Three times crispy yellow cabbage, it’s so satisfying just thinking about it.

While she was happily looking at the abacus, Chen Yan was also muttering that she was going to deliver a new silk scarf to her grandma tomorrow. Is it normal to eat two pieces of yellow cabbage then?

But how do you eat and drink while filming?

You have to find a justifiable reason, otherwise Yueyue will laugh at you again.

Geng Lele looked at Xie Yufei and Xie Yuhang and said:

"You asked for one dish, but ended up with two. Look how nice Brother Xu is to you! Go back and finish all the papers I gave you. I will check them during the next break. If you can't even get into Tsinghua University, wouldn't you feel embarrassed? ?"

Everyone:?????????

Xiao Lele, who do you mean by putting this here?

Qi Siming tasted the crispy yellow cabbage, looked at Lin Xu and asked:

"Boss Lin, what are you going to do with Northeastern salty dishes?"

"The tentative decision is to compete with bear paws. You can't eat real bear paws, so you can only eat some counterfeit ones. But although it is a counterfeit, it is still a famous dish."

The deliciousness of bear paw lies in its soft and waxy outer skin, plump inside, and fascia mixed with the meat. These can be replaced by other ingredients.

Dou Wenjing heard this dish and asked curiously:

"Is it made of winter melon?"

Shaanxi has a similar practice, using winter melon to make a bear paw-like dish, also called bear paw competition.

Lin Xu shook his head:

"No, it's made of pig skin, stuffed with a mixture of ginseng, shark's fin, abalone, fish maw, beef, pig fat and other ingredients, and then steamed with whole beef tendons. Although it's

Imitation meal, but the level is not low."

Upon hearing this ingredient, everyone's attention was attracted again.

"It sounds delicious. I hope to make it soon so I can taste it."

"I can help."

"I can help move the camera during shooting."

"I can help with lighting."

"I can help you taste the saltiness..."

Lucy was eating enthusiastically. She really liked this crispy yellow dish. When everyone expressed their opinions, she couldn't help but echoed:

"I can be responsible for greedy foreigners."

She sent all the dishes today to the group of foreign friends.
