Chapter 664: Turn a big radish into a high-end bird’s nest: You can bully the system again!(2/2)
Then make a vegetarian banquet, just in time to let your meat-loving father-in-law feel the charm of vegetarian dishes, and maybe he will become obsessed with vegetarian dishes.
Lin Xu brought a bowl, cracked three eggs into it, sprinkled a little salt and pepper, stirred with chopsticks, added some cornstarch, and stirred into a paste.
Then cover it with plastic wrap and put it in a steamer for steaming.
Xie Baomin said:
"This steamed chicken cake is used for decoration. The most conspicuous yellow peony flowers in the picture of peony agarwood are made of this thing. Just slant the blade and it's very simple."
After steaming the cake, Lin Xu prepared ham, chicken breast, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, sea cucumber and other ingredients. These ingredients have been soaked and can be used directly.
All the ingredients are cut into shreds and placed neatly on the plate one by one.
When everything is ready, take a soup plate, put the dried shredded radish in it, and pile it in the middle.
Then spread the various cut filaments on the shredded radish in a radial pattern. When spreading, pay attention to the color matching and distinction, and try to make the dish look more beautiful.
Put everything away, take an empty basin, pour half of the clear soup into it, add rice wine and pepper, stir evenly, and pour it along the edge into a basin filled with shredded radish and various ingredients.
The clear soup contains a lot of umami substances and ham salt, so there is no need to add salt and MSG separately.
Normally, peony agarwood uses boiling water, so there is a step to add MSG. Like Lin Xu, it is prepared with top-quality clear soup, which is a super high configuration.
Under normal circumstances, no one would do this, because the cost can almost be made with real bird's nests instead of relying on big radishes.
Lin Xu thought to himself while pouring clear soup into the basin.
The amount of clear soup should not be too much and should not cover the pile in the middle, otherwise it will affect the final shape.
The specific amount should be enough to cover two-thirds of the shredded ham, shredded mushrooms and other ingredients.
Pour in the clear soup and put it into the steaming cabinet for steaming:
"The entire steaming time will take about half an hour. After half an hour, this peony dish will have its highlight moment. Don't leave the live broadcast room. There are other dishes."
Lin Xu finished talking to the live broadcast room and started working on other dishes.
In the ginkgo garden, Dundun squatted on Xiaobai's saddle again and walked around the garden with dignity.
Shen Jiayue was watching the live broadcast on her mobile phone. She always thought that peony agarwood was a bird's nest dish with a unique shape. She didn't expect it to be a big radish, and she was full of curiosity about this dish.
Using radish as bird's nest should taste good, right?
You have to go back and try it later, otherwise you will miss out on the delicious food.
Thinking of this, she shouted to Dundun:
"Dundun, Dad is making delicious food in the store. How about we go back and eat it? Catch him off guard and see what delicious food he has made."
Dundun tilted his head and thought for a while, not showing much interest in going back to eat.
However, Shen Jiayue's next words made the little guy change his mind.
"What Dad is doing is a clear soup banquet. The whole table is filled with various clear soups. Don't you want to try this delicious food, baby?"
Dundun was not interested in the soupy dishes, but when he heard about the clear soup banquet, he immediately felt that this was an opportunity to steal the system.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Naturally, the kitten would not miss this opportunity. It meowed. Xiaobai stopped in confusion, turned his face and snorted, but Dundun did not respond. He jumped off the horse and jumped into Mommy's arms.
.
"Ha, I came over as soon as I heard Dad cook delicious food. You are such a greedy little cat!"
Shen Jiayue tapped Dundun's head lightly and said to Mi Lan, who was greeting tourists here:
"Sister Mi Lan, there is delicious food in the store today. Do you want to go back with me to try it?"
Mi Lan waved her hand and said:
"No, my colleagues are here for team building today. I have to greet them here. I can't leave."
Mi Lan has a formal job in the city, and this place is just an investment. Now the scenic spot is quite famous, and colleagues are waiting to come and support it, so taking advantage of this morning, the entire department decided to come to the Ginkgo Garden for team building.
.
At this time, Mi Lan naturally couldn't leave.
Shen Jiayue said with some regret:
"Then I'll take Dundun back first, and we'll have dinner together someday when we're not busy."
"Okay Yueyue, drive carefully and pay attention to safety."
"I will, I will, Dundun, have you forgotten what mommy taught you? Say goodbye to Aunt Mi Lan."
"Meow~~~~~"
Dundun reluctantly raised her paw and let out a lazily cry, which made Mi Lan gasp in surprise:
"Wow, it can really understand human speech. No wonder netizens say Dundun is the blue cat's IQ ceiling. With this performance, it's not just the ceiling, it's just piercing the ceiling."
Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"Cats are actually quite smart, but most of the time they are just too lazy to respond to humans. Our family Dundun is relatively well-behaved, so being able to pick him up is the luckiest thing for our family."
When she said this, the tip of the kitten's tail in her arms was swaying slightly, and its head was rubbing against her shoulder, looking like it was in a good mood.
Arriving at the parking lot, she put Dundun in the car, Shen Jiayue put on her seat belt, then left the Ginkgo Garden and headed to Yingchun Street on the North Fourth Ring Road.
In the store, Lin Xu is busy cooking.
Most of these clear soup dishes require steps such as steaming, boiling, braising, and simmering.
It’s not very complicated. The only thing you need to pay attention to is to coordinate the maturity time of the dishes and try to make the dishes come out at the same time, so as to ensure the maximum heat.
There has always been a saying in Chinese food that "one hot dish is served with three fresh dishes". No matter how delicious the food is, it is better to raise the temperature of the dishes.
Only when the temperature is high, the dishes will taste better and the aroma will be stronger.
This is especially true for soups. Some soups even require you to scald your mouth before eating, because once the temperature drops, the fresh aroma of the soup may turn into a fishy smell.
After finishing the work at hand, Lin Xu carefully fished out the chrysanthemum tofu soaked in the water.
By now, the fishy smell of the tofu has been completely soaked out. In addition, with the addition of salt water, the toughness of the tofu has been improved.
After taking it out, reduce the water slightly, and then put it into a stew pot with clear soup.
When the tofu was first fished out, the whole elegant chrysanthemum immediately twitched, completely losing its shape. Until it was put back into the clear soup, that elegant feeling reappeared.
Close the lid of the stew pot and put it in the steaming cabinet to start steaming.
Chrysanthemum tofu is usually made by stewing in water, and the seasoning is relatively simple.
Basically, use whatever flavor the clear soup tastes like, without adding any condiments.
It is only after the pot is cooked that two wolfberry berries are pinched and added. This is not only to match the color, but also to deepen the impression of health care and nourishment on customers.
This is the same as the braised noodles in the Central Plains. A bowl of ordinary braised noodles costs more than ten yuan, but if you pinch two wolfberries and put them in, it becomes a nourishing braised noodles that can sell for more than 20 yuan.
Putting the stew pot into the steaming cabinet, Lin Xu turned off the steamer on the stove, simmered it for a while, opened the lid, and took out the cake inside.
The cake has completely solidified and is golden in color, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
After it cools, turn it upside down from the bowl, and then use a kitchen knife to turn the slices on it. When slicing, you must control the direction and cut out as round edges as possible.
In addition, when slicing, you should also pay attention to making the egg slices thick at one end and thin at the other, so that the egg slices will be slightly curled and look more like peony petals.
The petals range from small to large, and are all cut into pieces. The peony agarwood that was put in the steaming cabinet has also been steamed.
Lin Xu opened the cabinet door and smelled a strong fresh fragrance before he even reached outside.
This unadulterated clear soup not only has a rich and long-lasting fragrance, but also smells very comfortable. Xie Baomin on the side sniffed and said with a smile:
"The quality of this clear soup is hard to find in the capital. Junior brother, you are so sincere in your business. No wonder you can make money by opening a restaurant. Unfortunately, many businessmen only know how to squeeze costs. As a result, the more they squeeze, the higher the cost."
There is no business, and the less business there is, the more costs will be squeezed into a vicious cycle. This is a taboo in the catering business..."
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"The main reason is that many restaurants don't have the attention and customer flow that Lin Ji has. Even if they want to make changes, they won't get positive feedback from customers, and in the end they can only reduce costs... This is the helplessness of catering people. Many people choose to join chain stores.
, this is just to get traffic and attention."
He placed the soup basin on the workbench, poured some balsamic vinegar along the sides, and then placed the newly sliced petals in the middle.
Large petals are at the bottom, then staggered upward.
When it is placed in the middle, insert a few blanched day lilies vertically as stamens, and this famous peony agarwood dish in the Central Plains is officially completed!

I was originally preparing for the third update, but I was very sleepy in the afternoon, shaved and took a shower, and was busy processing the supplementary materials for tax returns, which caused a delay, so I decided to do it tomorrow. If I have nothing to do tomorrow, I will continue the third update. On days that are not recommended, I can only rely on explosions.
Chapter completed!
