Chapter 31 Stone Pot Dish (2)

As if sensing the greed in the hearts of the hundreds of ghosts, Zhao Youqian looked up angrily at the hundreds of ghosts who had gathered their gazes.

"What are you looking at? There will be food for you later. Hurry up and get to work, otherwise you won't know when you will be able to eat!"

Zhao Youqian gave the order, which caused a quick response. Baigui immediately turned around and stopped looking. They didn't want to delay eating for a long time. In fact, Zhao Youqian expected to eat and cook at the same time, otherwise the time would indeed be delayed for a long time.

A stone pot of cured rice was prepared, and it seemed that the situation was no different from what he had rehearsed in his mind. Soon the washed rice, as well as the cured chicken and sausages that the mountain boy brought first, were all put into the small bowl on the ground. Among the twenty stone pots.

I don’t know why Asama Shrine has so many stone pots here. If Isayama Huangquan wasn’t chatting happily with Phoenix Fire right now, Zhao Youqian would have really wanted to go up and ask.

But now...he is afraid of being beaten to death in the past...

Glancing at the two female creatures who were chatting animatedly, he lowered his head and began to prepare to handle the wild boar, which was not too small in weight.

After removing the hair, tusks, and blood from the internal organs, the weight of this nearly 500-kilogram wild boar was less than 300 kilograms, which was not a very heavy ingredient for Zhao Youqian.

The wild boar was brushed with a layer of sauce again. Zhao Youqian's method was still a little different from many roasting methods. He used a more original, but not completely original, fusion method.

First, I found a large number of lotus leaves and covered the wild boar with a layer of lids from top to bottom. Then I used tinfoil to wrap the entire lotus leaf and the wild boar completely from top to bottom. This alone took several rolls. Tin foil.

Then he shoveled out half of the charcoal that had almost no flames in the fire pit, leaving only the residual warmth and smoldering fire. He spread many palm leaves and banana leaves on the bottom of the hot fire pit, and then placed the charcoal that had been wrapped in tin foil. The wild boar was put on top, and then a thick layer of palm leaves and banana leaves were spread on top again until the wild boar was no longer visible, and then the shoveled charcoal was poured on top again.

Finally, the fire pit is completely covered with soil, allowing the temperature inside to reach an extremely high level, and the wild boar meat is slowly simmered in the soil until it is completely cooked.

Zhao Youqian also had a whim for this recipe that combines roasted suckling pig from Hawaii Island in Western America and Yaozhou beggar's chicken. How it tastes depends on how it turns out after it's finished.

However, he believed that the taste wouldn't be too bad, and it wouldn't be appropriate if today's Hundred Demons Banquet didn't include some large pieces of meat.

That's why Zhao Youqian used this method to cook a whole wild boar.

It's like steaming and roasting, and has the characteristics of simmering. It will definitely bring unexpected surprises to Zhao Youqian who is trying this method for the first time.

At this time, the wild boar only needs to wait for the results of time, and Zhao Youqian focused on other dishes.

In addition to wild boars, cured meats, and fish caught by water tigers and others, there are even freshwater trout here. Zhao Youqian arranged for Baigui to separate their flesh and bones, and mix different fish slices together. At the same time, different fish bones were washed and mixed together.

This mixing of different fish species was actually done intentionally by Zhao Youqian.

Different fish can bring out different umami flavors, and can also release more umami flavors in a short time. Onion and ginger water, egg whites, starch, pepper, salt, sake, after conventional pickling techniques, two pots Zhao Youqian took the fish meat and fish bones by his side and started cooking the second series of stone pot dishes.

It's just that this time it's slightly different. Not only are stone pots used, but also pebbles that have been heated on the fire pit for a long time and have accumulated heat energy.

Heated the stone pot again until it was boiling hot. Zhao Youqian also added the lard first this time, but then he did not add water directly. Instead, he took out the fish bones in an amount suitable for a stone pot, and then threw them in for the second step. One step frying.

The high temperature of the stone pot dyed the fish bones with a layer of golden color in just an instant. The fierce collision of oil and water made a "sizzling, sizzling" sound in the hot stone pot.

It also makes people feel the high temperature of the stone pot!

Zhao Youqian used chopsticks twice as long as ordinary chopsticks to stir-fry, while adding sliced ​​tomatoes, green onions and ginger slices. As soon as the aroma of green onions and ginger came out, he immediately added water and some scooped out cucumber flesh. Pour the seeds in.

However, due to the continuous addition of ingredients, the temperature of the stone pot has obviously dropped a lot. In addition, Zhao Youqian is obviously making soup, so he put in a lot more water than before when making cured rice. It took a while for the water to be put into the pot. , and then slowly began to show signs of boiling.

"The temperature is almost not enough. Do you want to heat it again?"

At some point, Phoenix Fire and Isayama Huangquan came to Zhao Youqian's side. They looked at the slightly boiling stone pot and asked questions.

"No!"

Zhao Yougan picked up a few pebbles. At this time, there was basically nothing special about the pebbles that were away from the fire.

But when Zhao Youqian threw all the pebbles into the stone pot, it boiled instantly! The high temperature even caused the soup inside to overflow, showing how terrifying the pebbles were after absorbing enough heat.

Even Isayama Huangquan was stunned for a moment. She did not expect that the seemingly small stones could have such a high temperature, nor did she expect that Zhao Youqian could actually use stones to cook dishes.

"Don't be surprised, this is a very common cooking technique in Yaozhou, using heated stones to cook dishes!"

"The temperature of the stone instantly locks the flavor of the ingredients, which can better preserve nutrients and taste."

Zhao Youqian naturally knew how rare this technique was in Dongying. He carefully looked at the soup in the stone pot without looking back to judge the quality of the fish soup, while introducing this cooking method to Isayama Yomi and Phoenix Fire.

After a stone pot was cooked, Zhao Youqian naturally did not stop, adding pebbles while heating it, and soon there was a row of more than ten stone pot fish soup being cooked.

And when he put the fish bones in the last stone pot, the pebbles began to heat, and the fish soup in the first pot had boiled until it was thick white, which was when the fish soup became delicious.

Looking at the soup in the first stone pot, which was thick white with a little yellowish brown color, Zhao Youqian nodded slightly. This was a sign that the oil and water in the fish soup had melted at the right time.

Add a little bit of salt and then dip the fish fillets into it.

Pieces of fish meat that were either snow-white or slightly orange soon began to float on the soup surface, which also represented the completion of the fish cooked in stone pot.

Unknowingly, the stone pot cured rice had all reached the point where it had been simmered, and the aromas of the two stone pot dishes began to complement each other, making Isayama Yomi couldn't help but feel his throat tingle.

Zhao Youqian did not hesitate, and while putting the fish fillets into other stone pots one by one, he began to call the ghosts to come closer.

"Hurry up and finish the work at hand, we can start dinner soon!"

This is much more effective than any other commands.

The hundred ghosts who had work on hand immediately started to speed up the work at hand. They had almost finished it all, and now they solved it in twos and twos. They sat down in front of Zhao Youqian and waited for their ghost master to feed him. .
Chapter completed!
