Chapter 248 Everything is ready
Ordering tofu is also very particular about craftsmanship.

For those who have never made tofu at all, it is difficult to control the amount of gypsum when ordering tofu for the first time.

If you add too much, the tofu will become stale, if you add too little, the tofu will not form well, and it will be completely broken into slag and completely turned into tofu flowers.

Same goes for the tofu ordered with lemonade.

But Bai Xiaobai is not difficult at all now, he is like a master chef who has been making tofu for many years, and he is quite good at ordering tofu.

The key to ordering tofu is to order, not just pour lemonade directly into the soy milk in a pot, and stir it with a spoon.

Bai Xiaobai used splashing, splashing the lemonade on the soy milk little by little, and stirring it three times with a spoon every three times.

Keep your eyes on the changes in the soy milk in the pot.

Stop pouring lemonade immediately until the soy milk in the pot appears flocculent white bean curd flowers.

Turn on a low heat and carefully heat the concentrated koji water. At this time, there is no need to turn the pot, and it will be heated continuously for two to three minutes.

Prepare the tofu mold black technology equipment provided by the system.

This equipment is a small wooden box with a square shape, and there is a movable shaft frame in the space, which can be adjusted freely.

The tofu made by Bai Xiaobai is very small, after adjusting the corresponding space.

Put the tofu flakes into the mould, cover and pressurize.

The equipment shows that tofu pressing takes 5 minutes.

Bai Xiaobai has been busy for a long time, and it is already past six o'clock.

He was already hungry, so he took advantage of this spare time to make breakfast first.

To participate in the competition today, Bai Xiaobai must eat nutritiously.

Only with energy can we cope with the next cooking competition.

He specially made four delicacies from the special breakfast series, plus supreme tea eggs, and took out a bottle of iced pure milk from the refrigerator.

The combination of meat and vegetables, green vegetables and milk eggs is too rich.

After cooking breakfast, the tofu has actually been pressed.

It's just that he was very hungry, so Bai Xiaobai planned to have breakfast first and then check the results.

After bringing out the delicious food, Bai Xiaobai picked a seat at random, sat down and began to eat breakfast with big mouthfuls.

Gao Chao happened to be coming down from upstairs, still naked on his upper body, with a camouflage towel on his shoulders, camouflage shorts on his lower body, and camouflage flip flops.

This guy probably has obsessive-compulsive disorder, almost all of his belongings are camouflage, and he almost replaced his toothbrush, toothpaste, and mouthwash cup with camouflage.

Bai Xiaobai was thinking about it, but Gao Chao said hello first: "Bai Xiaobai, good morning! Make me a bowl of Supreme Beef Noodles. The Supreme Chili Sauce is going to be medium spicy. I'll pay by card later."

Gao Chao's tone is not like that of a customer, but rather like a casual greeting and ordering between friends.

Bai Xiaobai had almost finished eating, so he put down his chopsticks and went back to the glass kitchen to make beef noodles for Gao Chao.

King Spirit Mine Lang——

He came out with Supreme Beef Noodles, Gao Chao sat on the seat and was wiping his hair with a towel.

Bai Xiaobai brought the bowl to Gao Chao, "Your beef noodles."

Gao Chao picked up the chopsticks and began to suck up the noodles.

"By the way, I have something to do this morning, so I won't open in the morning. I don't know if I can come back at noon. If you are in the store, help me feed Xiao Hei at noon."

Gao Chao took a sip of the noodle soup and asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Bai Xiaobai said truthfully, "I want to participate in the cooking competition, and it will start at nine o'clock in the morning."

Gao Chao continued to eat noodles without looking up, and continued to ask, "Where is the game?"

"Jianghai Honghui Grand Plaza."

Gao Chao said lightly, "Okay, leave Xiao Hei to me, you can go to the competition with peace of mind, come on!"

After getting along with Gao Ming these days, Bai Xiaobai feels that he is a cold-faced and warm-hearted person.

He doesn't like to talk much, and most of the time he speaks in a cold tone, but he basically doesn't refuse any help that he asks for.

When the store is busy at meal times, no matter how many customers there are or how busy the store is, when he is helping outside, there is no complaint at all, which makes Bai Xiaobai want to give him a model worker award and salary.

It's just that Gao Chao has a bad habit.

That is, he often feeds Xiao Hei dried beef in private, which makes Xiao Hei more and more chubby. He probably gained more than five catties. If he gets fatter, he will probably change his name to Xiaopang Hei.

After Bai Xiaobai finished his breakfast, he tidied up his bowls and chopsticks, returned to the glass kitchen, put the dirty bowls in the dishwasher to clean, and then started to open the black-tech tofu mold to check the finished tofu.

When Bai Xiaobai saw the white tofu cubes inside the mould, the excitement in his heart was beyond words.

The tofu I made for the first time was a great success, and the tofu ingredients of Super Mapo Tofu were finally tested successfully.

The cool electronic sound started.

[The host level has been upgraded to Xiaocheng, and you can taste the ingredients and semi-finished food. The host can try a bite of tofu made by himself. 】

There are a lot of benefits when the level is raised to Xiaocheng.

Earlier, Bai Xiaobai ate a mouthful of grilled beef from Supreme Beef Noodles, but was abruptly shut up by the host, and the electronic voice sounded like yesterday.

Now that the level has increased, it seems that in the future, you can blatantly 'steal' ingredients and semi-finished food.

Bai Xiaobai thought happily.

Because tofu itself is made by coagulation and pressure of cooked soybean milk, it is completely fine to eat raw, but generally the taste of raw tofu is not very good.

The system didn't know what cards to play, so it asked itself to try tofu directly.

Although he couldn't figure it out, Bai Xiaobai did it anyway.

After removing the black technology tofu mold, he carefully poured the tofu inside onto the small porcelain plate.

The first time he made tofu, Bai Xiaobai was just experimenting, so the amount was not much, and the final product was only the size of an adult's palm.

Picking up the kitchen knife, Bai Xiaobai cut off a small piece of snow-white tofu.

The tofu is very tender, easy to cut, and the cut surface is extra smooth and shiny.

But no matter how you look at it, they are all ordinary tofu, and there is nothing special about them. I don't know the difference in taste between the tofu ordered by the imperial concubine's drunken lemon and the ordinary tofu.

Picking up the original chopsticks, the suspicious Bai Xiaobai picked up the tofu slices and put them in his mouth.

After chewing for a while, a brain wave suddenly passed through Bai Xiaobai's head.

The word delicious just blurted out.

This tofu is so soft and tender that the taste of tofu can melt in your mouth without even biting.

Ordinary tofu has a raw and cold beany smell before it is cooked, and it is difficult to eat directly. No one will be so muddy that they can eat tofu directly.

However, the tofu ordered by the imperial concubine's drunken lemon maintains the smooth and soft taste of tofu, but it has no raw or cold beany smell.

Wonderful!

Although there is no taste, after eating tofu, a faint lemon aroma lingers in the mouth, like a fresh breath.

Bai Xiaobai had never tasted this wonderful tofu.

From a chemical point of view, soy milk itself is a colloid with electric charge, so when the soy milk is cooked, it needs to be stewed, in fact, it uses the charge in the "salt" to neutralize the colloid and make it coagulate.

This 'bitter' can be either common gypsum, bittern, or even lemonade.

However, the texture and taste of tofu ordered from different "stewed" are not exactly the same.

The "halogen" of Huaxia Guodian tofu is mainly divided into three categories:

The first type is tofu made with brine as a coagulant, which is more common in northern regions. This kind of tofu is called northern tofu. It has relatively low water content, hard texture and rough taste, but it is not easy to break during cooking.

The second type uses gypsum powder as the 'stew', which is more common in the south. It is called southern tofu. The water content can be as high as 90%. The texture is soft and the taste is relatively good, but it is easy to break during cooking.

The third category uses the gluconic acid-δ-lactone chemical as a 'halogen', which is called lactone tofu.

Glucono-δ-lactone is a new type of coagulant, which improves the yield and product quality compared with traditional preparation methods. The tofu ordered is white in color, soft in texture, fresh and tender in taste, and the damage degree of cooking is between northern tofu and Among the southern tofu, it is deeply loved by the majority of high-end consumers. Many large chain supermarkets in China sell this kind of boxed tofu.

However, Bai Xiaobai had eaten these kinds of tofu before, but it was still far from the tofu he ate.

How this 'marinated' made of drunken lemons has such a powerful transformation ability, can condense soy milk into such delicious tofu without beany smell, it is simply unimaginable.

After tasting the tofu, Bai Xiaobai was full of doubts.

At this time, the cold electronic voice in my mind prompted:
[Congratulations to the host for completing the production of tofu ingredients.The system is currently purchasing other ingredients needed for Super Mapo Tofu, and they will appear on the cabinet countertop on time at [-] o'clock sharp. Please pay attention to check and collect, host cooking competition, come on!I wish the flag a victory and a triumphant return. 】

Other ingredients are still being purchased, and upon hearing this electronic sound, Bai Xiaobai almost spits out a mouthful of old blood.

However, the system rarely said a few auspicious words, which warmed his heart.

Everything is ready, and all the ingredients will be ready at eight o'clock, only the Super Mapo Tofu has been upgraded.

Bai Xiaobai checked the time, it was already seven o'clock.

He picked up his mobile phone, dialed Guo Zhaohui's number, prepared the ingredients at eight o'clock, and took his taxi to Jianghai Honghui Plaza for the competition.
