Hardcore Chef Dad

Father, what are you and grandma doing behind? We and Uncle Yang are here to learn how to cook from you.

Feng Ruoruo, the Little Overlord of Su Ji, shouted outside the water room, and Feng Yifan hurriedly turned his head to the outside and said, Come here, come here.

In response, Feng Yifan quickly turned around and walked out of the water room. Seeing Feng Ruoruo who had taken a nap and had snacks with his good friends, he stood waiting at the back door of the kitchen with his mouth pouted.

Seeing her father coming out, Feng Ruoruo stepped forward and said, Dad, why are you so slow?

Feng Yifan hurried forward two steps, squatted down and said to his daughter with a smile, Dad is talking to the new dishwashing lady.

After hearing her father's explanation, Feng Ruoruo was a little curious: Who is the new dishwashing lady?

Just as they were talking, Lu Cuiling led Zhao Daxia out and introduced to the little granddaughter: This is the aunt invited by grandma to help father wash the dishes. If you call her 'auntie'.

Feng Ruoruo looked at Zhao Daxia, sized her up, and said generously, Hello, auntie, thank you for coming to help Dad wash the dishes.

Zhao Daxia saw that the little girl was very cute with red lips and white teeth, and when she heard the little girl greeted herself, she immediately felt that the little girl was very cute.

You're welcome, you're welcome. Auntie washes the dishes for your father, and your father paid for it.

Feng Ruoruo still cheerfully said after hearing this: Then thank you, auntie, too. If you come to wash the dishes for Dad, Dad can have more time to play with Ruoruo and make snacks for Ruoruo.

After hearing this, Zhao Daxia smiled and said, The little girl is really smart.

Feng Ruoruo was a little embarrassed to be praised: Thank you, auntie.

Then, the little girl remembered that Xixi's father wanted to ask him to learn how to cook, so she quickly took her father's hand and said, Dad, let's go in quickly, Xixi, Feifei, and Uncle Yang, as well as grandparents are waiting for you. you.

Feng Yifan held his daughter's little hand, and said to his mother and Zhao Daxia: Mom, you take eldest sister to the front first, let's get acquainted.

Lu Cuiling replied: Okay, then let's go and sit in the front first, so as not to disturb your learning to cook.

Zhao Daxia followed Lu Cuiling through the back kitchen, and when she went to the restaurant in front, she also saw two little girls in the kitchen. And when I came, the old couple and the man who talked a lot were also there.

Follow Lu Cuiling out of the back kitchen,

Zhao Daxia couldn't help asking: Auntie, I want to ask, are those people in the kitchen the boss' apprentices?

Lu Cuiling replied calmly, No, they are the parents of my granddaughter's kindergarten children.

Zhao Daxia was very surprised: Then why did the boss teach them how to cook? I have taught them to others, so why don't they come to your house to eat?

Su Ruoxi just came to greet her, and wanted to say something to her mother-in-law when she heard Zhao Daxia's words.

Su Ruoxi immediately said: They are all friends, and they can't come to our house every day to eat out and teach them how to cook. The main thing is to let them cook for their children after they go home.

Zhao Daxia was still very surprised when she heard the words: Your restaurant is so strange. Other restaurants would like to have more customers and make more money. Why doesn't your family seem to care at all?

Lu Cuiling said lightly: It's fine if you can make money, and you don't have to worry about everything.

Su Ruoxi explained with a smile: We are all friends, so you don't need to be so particular about it. Sister, you can also sit down and have a rest. Our business hours are still early.

Zhao Daxia then asked: Wait for the boss to finish teaching cooking?

Su Ruoxi looked at her watch, and said, We don't open for dinner until five o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhao Daxia was also a little surprised: What? You have to wait until five o'clock?

Lu Cuiling said a little impatiently: It's too early, and no one is coming for dinner, so you should find a place to sit down and rest for a while, and when the business starts, you can go to the back to help.

When Zhao Daxia heard the words, she had no choice but to agree, and found a place to sit down and wait. After all, it was nearly an hour before five o'clock.

In the kitchen, Feng Yifan has already started teaching the parents of the two families how to cook.

It's a more homely way to make braised pork today. Let everyone go home and make it for the little ones at home.

After hearing this, Yang Xiaoxi immediately said: Father Feng, you must teach my father.

Hearing what his daughter said, Yang Zhiyi couldn't help but said, Yang Xiaoxi, are you just so disrespectful to Dad? Do you think Dad can't learn?

Yang Xiaoxi pouted and said, Dad, you are a bit stupid, so you must study hard.

Yang Zhiyi was very depressed by his daughter's words, and he held back for a long time before saying: Today, Dad must learn it once, so that you know how good Dad is, and I will make you the same braised pork at home as Dad Feng.

When Grandpa Feifei heard this, she smiled and said, Not bad, not bad, Dad Xixi finally has the fighting spirit today.

Feng Yifan also smiled, and first carefully selected a piece of pork belly.

Seeing the beautiful three-layer pattern of pork belly, Yang Zhiyi subconsciously couldn't help but drool.

When the three little girls heard it, Yang Xiaoxi immediately said, Dad, that meat hasn't been cooked yet, why did you start drooling?

Feng Ruoruo said seriously: Uncle, don't eat anything that isn't cooked through, it will spoil your stomach.

Chen Yaofei also echoed seriously: That's right, Uncle Yang, you must make it cooked and eat it.

Yang Zhiyi was said to be blushing, and could only say: I just think this piece of meat is great, and I thought it would be delicious when I made it.

The conversation between the three little girls and Yang Zhiyi also made Feng Yifan and Feifei's grandparents very happy.

Feng Yifan put the meat on the chopping board and said: I don't need to talk about how to pick the meat. The braised pork must use pork belly, the pork belly under the ribs, this kind of layered meat is the best.

Next, Feng Yifan sat on the pot directly on the stove, heated up the empty pot, and then directly put the selected square pork belly with the skin down, and put it in the iron pot for frying.

Seeing this step, both Yang Zhiyi and Feifei's grandparents felt very strange.

Grandma Feifei asked strangely: Father Ruoruo, what are you doing?

Feng Yifan said with a smile: This is actually to remove the smell from the pigskin. When you make it at home, you can omit this step and cook it in boiling water instead.

After frying the pork skin until it was golden and even a little bit black, Feng Yifan put the pork belly into clean water to wash it.

If you do this step at home, you must wash the pig skin, otherwise the bitter taste left by the fried pig skin will remain.

After some cleaning, Feng Ruoruo clapped his hands and applauded when he saw that the meat his father fished out was not black and yellow, Dad has been cleaned, it's great.

With his daughter applauding beside him, Feng Yifan also felt very happy, and continued to the next step with a smile.

The next step is to cook the meat. Many people may ignore this step when cooking at home, which will cause the meat to be unpalatable. Now the residual smell of pork is too strong, so it must be cooked.

Put the pork in a pot under cold water, pour some rice wine, green onion knots and a few slices of ginger.

After boiling, Feng Yifan carefully skimmed off the foam with a spoon.

Yang Zhiyi looked strangely and asked: Chef Feng, you don't use the water for cooking meat, why do you bother to skim off the foam?

Feng Yifan said with a smile: Think about it, the purpose of cooking meat is to cook out the impurities. Now that the impurities are cooked out, if you don't clean them up, won't they be boiled back into the meat?

When Yang Zhiyi heard this, he suddenly realized: Oh, so it is like this.

Yang Xiaoxi curled her lips and said, Father, you are stupid.

Yang Zhiyi listened to his daughter's words and said seriously: Dad doesn't understand, so Dad has to ask clearly, otherwise how can I go home and cook delicious food for you and mom?

Yang Xiaoxi thought about what his father said was right, and then said: Well, then father is not stupid, you have to study hard.

Skimmed off the scum and cooked for a while, but the meat was not fully cooked, so Feng Yifan fished out the pork, put it in cold water, and then drained and cleaned it.

Then Feng Yifan fished out the pork and began to modify the knife.

Seeing Feng Yifan cut the pork into four squares, both Yang Zhiyi and Feifei's grandparents were a little surprised.

Because he changed the knife seemingly casually, the pieces of meat that Feng Yifan cut out were almost the same size.

After cutting the meat, seeing the three parents were a little surprised, Feng Yifan added: If it's at home, it doesn't have to be cut so that all of them are exactly the same size, you can do whatever you want.

After the meat was cut, Feng Yifan sat on the pot again and let out a little oil first.

When putting in the oil, Feng Yifan said again: I don't use pork for this oil, but scallion oil that I fried myself, in order to increase the flavor and remove the smell of the meat better.

Yang Zhiyi immediately said: Chef Feng, then you have to tell us how to make this scallion oil.

Feng Yifan responded with a smile: Don't worry, I will definitely tell you later.

After saying that, Feng Yifan poured the meat into the pot, and started to stir-fry slowly over low heat, gradually releasing the oil from the meat itself.

It must be noted that after the oil is stir-fried, the meat should be served out once, because so much oil cannot be used. The process of this step is to stir-fry the excess oil in the meat, so that it can Not fatty.

Hearing this, Grandma Feifei said: It turns out that it is like this. No wonder the cooking at my house always produces a lot of oil, which makes my mouth greasy after eating.

After serving the meat out, Feng Yifan then turned the heat down to very low, and only put a little oil in the pot.

Seeing this scene, Yang Zhiyi asked strangely: Chef Feng, what are you doing?

Feng Yifan replied with a smile: The next thing is naturally to fry the sugar color.

Grandpa Feifei was very surprised when she heard this: Oh? So you want to use sugar color for coloring? This is a very technical job.

Feng Yifan put rock sugar into the pot, and then added some water.

I'm frying in water and oil. It's actually not that difficult. You just need to pay attention to stir-frying on a low heat. You must not be in a hurry. Slowly use a spoon to gently push and stir-fry in one direction.

Stir-frying the sugar color is really time-consuming. Everyone stood by and watched carefully, and the color of the sugar color gradually changed.

Feng Yifan also explained seriously: When the big bubble turns into a small bubble, the color has gradually become darker, and when the small bubble is about to go down, it will be fine.

As he spoke, he added water to the pot to wash away the sticky sugar in the pot.

Although the sugar has been washed away, the fried sugar color is still there, a bit like soy sauce soup.

Feng Yifan also poured a little rice wine in, boiled it again, let the smell of the wine evaporate, and poured out the sugar-colored soup.

Now the preparations are basically completed, and the meat will be officially started.

Yang Zhiyi was surprised when he heard this: What? Is this the end of the preparations? Is it time to officially start burning?

Feng Yifan has to carefully prepare the above, so as to ensure that the roast meat can be in place at one time.

After all, without any fuss, put a little oil in the pot, put the onion, ginger, bay leaves, star anise, and a piece of white cardamom into it and stir-fry.

After the taste comes out, pour all the previous meat pieces into the pot and stir fry together.

Then add hot water to cover the meat, add some rice wine, and then put a spoonful of sugar-colored soup into it, and then season it.

Put in some soy sauce, then a little bit of sugar, and then a little bit of salt.

You should pay attention here, you can't add cold water, but use hot water to add to the pot to stew.

After finishing the seasoning, cook it first with high heat. Feng Yifan directly poured the pot of meat into the pressure cooker with oiled bottom.

For this dish, the soup must be fully cooked. Now that there is a pressure cooker, it saves a lot of trouble and time.

After pressing the meat in the pressure cooker, Feng Yifan said with a smile: Okay, this is considered complete, just wait until the meat is finally pressed out.

Seeing this, Yang Zhiyi and Feifei's grandparents watched the whole process.

Although it doesn't seem complicated, the three parents still feel very particular about many details in the process.

Feng Yifan then explained how to make scallion oil, and also prepared some hard-boiled eggs: You can cut a knife on the surface of the eggs, then deep-fry them with oil, and then boil them with the meat, it will be more delicious.

That said, Feng Yifan did the same.

When the eggs are almost fried and the meat is almost pressed, put the eggs in and cook them together.

At this time, the aroma has come out, and the whole back kitchen is filled with the smell of meat, which makes people salivate.

Especially the three little girls can't wait.

Dad, hurry up, I really want to eat.

Father Feng, Xixi really wants to eat.

Father Feng, Feifei wants to eat too.

Feng Yifan smiled and comforted the little girls: Don't worry, it will be fine soon, we want to cook the eggs to taste.

Speaking of this, Feng Yifan said to Feifei's grandparents and Xixi's father: If you are making it at home and you are not in a hurry, I suggest that you do not use a pressure cooker, but cook it slowly in an iron pot over low heat, it will be more delicious.

After some stewing, the pressure cooker finally deflated, and Feng Yifan opened the lid again.

In an instant, a more fragrant smell rushed out.

Not to mention the three little girls and Yang Zhiyi, even Feifei's grandparents couldn't help swallowing several times in a row.

Feng Yifan took the braised pork out of the pressure cooker, arranged them one by one in a small black casserole, and finally poured the soup in the pot, and sprinkled a little green onion for decoration.

A delicious braised pork is ready.
