Agriculture Idol

Chapter 87 You Cooked Corn ([-])

It was just after 10 o'clock after the corn was packed. Seeing that there was still some time before the meal, Li Chengxin picked a few questions from the barrage to answer.

The first is the difference between yellow corn and white corn.

"In terms of taste, yellow corn is more crispy and is a normal fruit corn, while white corn is relatively soft and waxy, which is waxy corn." Brother Xiaoyong answered this question.

In terms of nutrition, the farmer Anxi answered: "Simply speaking, yellow corn is rich in lutein, and the content of vitamins A, B1 and B2 is also higher. White corn contains relatively less vitamins, but white corn contains less vitamins. The high content of cellulose has the characteristics of stimulating gastrointestinal peristalsis and accelerating the excretion of feces, and can prevent constipation, enteritis, and intestinal cancer.”

The next question is what kind of classification is corn, whether it is grain, vegetable or fruit.

Anxi said with a smile: "This is the favorite question asked by elementary school students who come to experience the agricultural harvest in my family's field."

【We are all primary school students tonight...】

【At least this is the car to go to elementary school】

In response to this question, Anxi is already very proficient: "Before answering this question, let's first understand the concept of grain. Grain refers to the general term for various plant seeds in cooking food, which can also be generally referred to as "grain", which roughly includes Wheat, beans, coarse grains and rice, etc. The main nutrients contained in food crops are starch. Of course, there are also a certain amount of protein, vitamins, and fat. Therefore, corn in the general sense belongs to food crops.

"But! There is a type of sweet corn in corn, that is, the yellow corn in my family. Because they contain more sweetness and rich reducing sugar, it and the young corn shoots that are eaten are classified as vegetables by scientists. So Although we call it 'fruit corn', the classification of fruit corn belongs to vegetables."

[It's finally over, it's lunch time]

【Is it finally time to start eating? I've been waiting for a long time, I'm so tired】

[Corn fried rice, corn stewed pork ribs, what other dishes are made with corn? 】

Finding local people to guide the cooking of local ingredients has always been the most exciting part of this agricultural live broadcast, and this time the instructor is Mrs. Anxi.

"Corn is a staple food after all, so I plan to make seafood risotto and corn pancakes."

When cooking with corn, it is inevitable to first peel the corn kernels. This is a part that Li Chengxin dislikes very much, because when he peels the corn kernels, he often crushes the crunchy corn kernels.

At this time, Mrs. An timely handed over two corn graters, which were simple tools with sawtooth rings and handles. Li Chengxin had seen all kinds of corn peeling miracles with similar functions on a certain treasure, but he had never used them. used.

According to Mrs. An's instructions, put the sawtooth ring on the corn kernels, hold the handle and turn it slightly while pressing down along the corn cob, and the corn kernels will be quickly peeled off in pieces.

"It works well! I haven't used it before, but I'm addicted to it after using it." Li Chengxin sighed.

Although "handmade" is a very popular trend now, sometimes it is really easy to use tools.

After a while, the two corns were peeled off.

Li Chengxin started to heat up the cast iron pan with olive oil to prepare the seafood risotto.

Chop the garlic and onion, cut the chicken thigh into large pieces, and stir-fry in the pot.

When the chicken is slightly charred, put the washed and drained rice in, gently stir-fry the rice and chicken evenly, then add the broth prepared in advance, and then add soy sauce and cooking wine.

Then, Mrs. An came out wearing thick labor protection gloves, and in her hand was a lobster with teeth and claws.

[Big...big lobster!This... this is too extravagant! 】

[This is the most extravagant ingredient I have seen in the live broadcast of Chasing Zicheng and Brother Xiaoyong! 】

[Did you forget the sea urchins and eels above? 】

[The inland real name envies the coastal people]

Li Chengxin and Brother Xiaoyong are the sons of real fishermen, and they are not as cautious when dealing with lobsters as Mrs. An.

Brother Xiaoyong skillfully pierced the lobster tail with chopsticks to release the waste water (lobster urine), and then stirred the lobster brain with chopsticks, and then he can dismember the lobster skillfully and safely.

Li Chengxin took the lobster that was cut lengthwise by Xiaoyong, put the fresh lobster with shell and meat into the pot, and then spread two corn kernels on it.

"Wow! It looks delicious." Brother Xiaoyong, who finished cleaning up the lobster mess, looked into the pot while wiping his hands.

Then, Li Chengxin took the clams handed over by Mrs. An, scattered them among the lobster and corn, and put some colored peppers cut into strips.

These colored peppers were delivered by Li Chengxin from Shi Hongxia, who grows Vegi Dream (vegetable dream). The euphemistic name is that only very sweet colored peppers can match very sweet corn.

Of course Shi Hongxia would not refuse this kind of promotional opportunity, so she readily sent a large box, and Anxi also sent a box of corn in return.

Cover the pot, and while waiting for the smell of lobster, shellfish and corn to mix, Li Chengxin started to prepare the next dish.

Brother Xiaoyong who was idle was also taught a simple dish, tacos.

[Listening to the name of the dish feels very visual. 】

[I thought of tomato meat rolls, I wonder if the person in front thinks the same as me? 】

First cut the corn into small pieces, place them vertically, and cut the corn kernels from top to bottom along the corn cylinder, so that the cut parts should not spread out as much as possible, that is to say, they should be cut against the corn cob as much as possible.

This kind of delicate work is really not Xiaoyong's forte, and it shattered after cutting a few pieces.

"Xin Wa'er..." Brother Xiaoyong looked at Li Chengxin aggrievedly, "Shall we change?"

Li Chengxin is cooking potatoes, one of the main ingredients for hash browns. This job seems much simpler than cutting corn.

So Li Chengxin and Brother Xiaoyong changed positions, and he mastered the trick of this task after two cuts, and quickly cut the corn kernels into chunks.

Next, the work of wrapping the corn cubes with pork belly slices was handed over to Brother Xiaoyong. This dish is also as guessed by netizens. It is the same method as the tomato meat rolls made during the tomato live broadcast last time.

After the meat slices are rolled, fry them in a pan until they are slightly charred on both sides, then add soy sauce and wine and steam for a while.

The fat of pork and the sweetness of corn are mixed together, making Xiao Yong's mouth water.

During this time, Li Chengxin has prepared mashed cooked potatoes, added fried minced meat, chopped onion and corn kernels, seasoned with salt and pepper, mixed well and kneaded into a cylindrical shape.

The cylindrical corn potato cake is coated with flour and eggs, then rolled with a layer of corn kernels, and finally coated with bread flour and fried in a frying pan.

[Why is it a croquette again? 】

[Long live fried food! 】

[I really want to eat... I feel that adding corn kernels will taste better]

The golden corn kernels glisten in the oil pan and look delicious.

Seeing that there were still a lot of ingredients left on the table, Li Chengxin casually mixed the remaining yellow corn and white corn kernels, added tender broad beans grown by Annan himself, and chopped shellfish, mixed them in the batter, and put them in the oil pan. Made a mixed tempura.

On the other hand, the risotto is also boiling, Xiaoyong grabbed a few basil leaves and threw them in to increase the color of the risotto and add a layer of fragrance.

After the system scored, Li Chengxin successfully got a useless stamina buff.

Then, before eating, Li Chengxin and Anxi entered a segment of their respective commercials, and then ended the live broadcast.
