Chapter 30 Learn to cook with me
Prepare tools and materials before cooking.

Yu Yishan carried two newly bought plastic buckets, went to a nearby well to get two buckets of water, washed some dishes, found a relatively flat big rock, and put the cutting board and kitchen knife on it.

Then, he started to light the fire, and these things were already familiar to Yishan.

As the flames rose, Yu Yishan let out a long sigh of relief: "Okay, we're finally getting into the rhythm of cooking... Are you all waiting too fast?"

The netizen said with a smile: "No rush, take your time and don't fall, we are not hungry yet."

Yu Yishan's lips trembled twice, and he decided to ignore the netizens' teasing: "Okay, according to our original plan, today's main course at noon is..."

"Stir-fried clams!"

“Steamed Sea Bass!”

"These are very delicious seafood, and the method is very simple. Next, I, the master chef, will show you how to make these two delicacies well..."

As soon as this remark came out, many netizens were stunned: "What do you mean? Master Shan wants to perform a one-handed fara...do you want to eat?"

Yu Yishan laughed: "How can it be possible to cook with one hand? What I want to teach is how to cook well when the cooking skills are terrible... How about it, everyone, learn how to cook with me? "

All the netizens immediately became interested, and said one after another: "Brother Handicapped, please start your performance."

"Okay, then I'll start acting...well, teaching, okay?"

Yu Yishan put the big pot on the stone stove, poured the mussels in, and added water.

"Blanch the mussels first. For handicapped people, it's easier to remove the shells...Of course, if you don't feel handicapped, you can also manually remove the shells."

"You must remember to put the pot in cold water. It doesn't take long to blanch the water, as long as the clam shells are open... I will take advantage of this time to deal with the perch first."

Yu Yishan came to the cutting board, picked up the kitchen knife, and fished out the dying bass.

"Of course, the fresher the bass, the better, but handicapped people usually buy pre-killed fish, so that doesn't matter much."

"Because...you can't buy wild ones anyway."

Yu Yishan's words immediately aroused condemnation from netizens, but unfortunately he ignored them all.

He started butchering the bass, removing the scales and gills, and there was nothing to explain.

There are basically two ways to kill fish, one is to open the abdomen and the other is to open the back.

Open belly is generally used for braised in soy sauce and requires a complete shape.

Steaming is generally done with the back open, and the handicapped party can be simpler, just cut open the fish and spread it flat.

This will cook faster and more evenly.

The spine likes to go or not, the flower knife likes to hit or not, and the handicapped party can't ask too much.

"The fish must be cleaned up. For example, the black film in its belly, some have more fish, some have less. If there is any, it must be scraped off with a knife."

"I don't want any messy things. At most, I will leave a fish bubble."

"Gills, teeth, you don't want all these things, don't care if it can be eaten, if you insist on eating it, you can eat anything except fish..."

"Clean and tidy, the dishes are good, beautiful, and pleasing to the eye, and the neighbor's children will cry."

Yu Yishan fetched a ladle of water, rinsed the fish and the cutting board, and then put the fish on the plate.

"It can't be washed for too long, too much water will affect the taste."

"It's like killing fish in a restaurant, and generally don't wash it after cutting it open... Theoretically speaking, there is no hygienic problem."

"But if you eat it by yourself, I suggest you wash it, or you won't feel awkward."

Set the plate directly, sprinkle with salt, monosodium glutamate, and spread evenly.

The amount of seasoning is appropriate, it depends on your own taste, you can add less MSG, or you can add some chicken essence.

As for a spoonful of salt and a spoonful of monosodium glutamate, this description is not accurate, because every spoon is different.

The right amount is the most accurate word, and no one can fault it.

Yu Yishan said: "If you are not sure about the seasoning, you can put a little less. After all, it is steamed. It is better to have a light taste than a salty one."

The most important part of steamed fish is soy sauce.

The most used is steamed fish soy sauce, and different brands of soy sauce have different aromas.

Yu Yishan used an old brand and poured a shallow layer directly on the bottom of the dish.

If you are not satisfied with the aroma and taste of this soy sauce, you can add some soy sauce or dark soy sauce.

Yu Yishan added a drop of old-fashioned soy sauce.

Finally, add two slices of ginger, a sliced ​​clove of garlic, and two scallions knotted.

This is to add some fragrance when steaming, to remove some fishy smell, and throw it away directly after steaming.

In this way, the preparation of steamed sea bass is almost completed.

All that's left is some toppings.

Yu Yishan cut some shredded ginger and red pepper and soaked them in water. These were sprinkled on the fish after it was steamed.

After soaking, the shredded ginger and pepper have a very light taste, which is mainly for decoration and will not affect the taste of sea bass.

Although Yu Yishan had a lot of nonsense, the preparations were not complicated. He quickly packed them up and waited for the mussels to come out of the pot.

The fire in the stone stove was relatively large, and the pot soon became hot.

Yu Yishan stirred the pot a few times with a large spoon, and saw that the mussels had opened their mouths, so he removed the pot.

Removing mussel meat from an open shell is a very simple matter that requires little or no special instructions.

Yu Yishan still said the same thing: "As long as the clam meat, I don't want any other messy things. Don't ask me if I can eat it. People are eating clams."

The netizens were suddenly speechless.

"Shan Ye's commentary doesn't have the temptation of a gourmet show at all."

"Shan Ye is a carnivore, and he is quite picky about what he eats."

"Grandpa Bei is also very picky. He removes the hair from everything he eats."

"Shan Ye's words are rough and reasonable, and the messy things should be thrown away, so as not to affect the appetite."

"I think of the time when my family killed chickens. Every time my dad killed chickens, he didn't chop off the chicken heads. The stew was like this, and so was the yellow stew. But every time no one ate the chicken heads, and they were left in the bowl... Now I realized that the older generation mainly lacks food, so they are reluctant to throw away everything. Now people should not follow those traditions when cooking, and throw away all those messy things..."

"No one eats the chicken bones, why don't you throw the chicken bones away too."

"That's two different things."

"I'm going to buy cooked food, as well as braised duck heads."

"Master Shan, what do you think?"

Yu Yishan just cleaned the clam meat, looked at the screen in the live broadcast room, laughed and said: "Tomorrow I will cook chicken, and then I will tell you the story of chicken."

A netizen said: "Actually, Master Shan is more suitable for being a duck."

Yu Yishan rolled his eyes: "Ahem, let's continue to live stream clams."

River mussels are more fishy, ​​and they have to be blanched after washing. Add salt, ginger, green onions, pepper... put what you have, and forget it.

The most important thing is wine, usually cooking wine, but also rice wine and rice wine. If you don’t have any, you can use white wine or even beer.

Yu Yishan uses an old brand of Shaoxing cooking wine, which tastes authentic. Of course, its biggest advantage is that it is cheap.

A bottle costs only two yuan.

All the netizens were speechless.

"It is estimated that if the Manchu banquet falls into the hands of Lord Shan, a simplified version can also be made."
