Food starts with noodles

"Why didn't that girl from the Yu family come back?"

Xu Zhuo said: "Schools are tight and I don't have time to come back. By the way, the three grandpas. When you have nothing to do during the summer vacation, can I ask my girlfriend to take some videos for you? If you are willing to appear in the camera, I can give you labor fees."

Zheng Guangyao waved his hand: "Whether it's paid or not, we are free when we are free. We can shoot at any time. If it is not convenient to find us, we can find you."

Dai Zhenting and Guo Shuying also kept nodding.

Apparently, both of them also want to be on camera to shoot some cooking videos.

In fact, they also filmed in private, but no one watched the video posted by the newcomer. After a day, the bullet screen was empty, and the number of views was even single digits. No one could cheer up.

But Yu Keke's account is different.

Not only do they have many fans, but they are also very active.

From the beginning to the end, the barrage never stopped.

Therefore, the three old men were very excited.

Zheng Guangyao is fine, he has enjoyed the praise of Grandpa Dai, the God of Cooking in the barrage of fans for nearly half a year, but Dai Zhenting and Guo Shuying haven't shown their faces yet.

However, Guo Shuying and Dai Zhenting are still somewhat different.

Dai Zhenting wanted to advertise his store to gain popularity, so that those people who went to Hangzhou would only know that there was a Louwailou whose cooking was particularly unpalatable.

Guo Shuying, on the other hand, wanted to promote Anhui cuisine through Yu Keke's platform.

Let more people know about Huizhou, Huizhou cuisine, and all the culture and customs of Huizhou.

The two old men have different focuses, but both have a heart to become an Internet celebrity.

Xu Zhuo estimated that after Ke Ke graduated, it would be absolutely no problem to have an Internet celebrity group of elderly chefs.

After eating, several people all dispersed.

Xu Zhuo and his father Wei Junming stayed at Yu's house, while the others lived in the hotel provided by Yangzhou University.

"Grandpa, why is that Tian Chengrun always silent?"

On the way back, Xu Zhuo asked the old man about the two unfamiliar old men.

"Pretend to be deep. I feel like a leader after cooking for the leader. I like to put on airs. However, Lao Tian's cooking is really good, especially his Buddha Jumping Wall, which is very delicious."

The person who can be praised by the old man sincerely should be really capable.

You know, even Yu Peiyong hasn't boasted so much before.

As for the master of Hunan cuisine, Yuan Desheng, he is quite gregarious.

I can chat with anyone, and from time to time I complain that Huaiyang cuisine is tasteless, so I ask the waiter to order a dry pot duck head or fried pork.

He complained about Yu Peiyong when he was accused of not being in the store.

Yu Peiyong learned all the eight major cuisines, but in the end he only taught his apprentice Huaiyang cuisine, making it difficult for him to eat some heavy food on the first floor.

It seems that Dai Zhenting also mentioned this request.

He likes to eat stinky dishes so much, but he never cooks on the first floor.

Every time he came to Yangzhou, he had to bring his own delicious food, and when he ate stinky dishes, Yu Peiyong stayed away from him, which was very sad.

"I am familiar with Yuan Desheng. He is really a person who likes spicy food. I can't stand the lack of chili here."

Wei Junming and Yuan Desheng are old acquaintances, they used to like to get together to study Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, and Yuan Desheng taught Wei Junming how to cook pepper fish head.

Tian Chengrun, the master of Fujian cuisine, Yuan Desheng, the master of Hunan cuisine, and Boss Xu have two more targets for strategy.

Hearing Wei Junming say that Yuan Desheng didn't have chili to eat, he suddenly realized that this might be an opportunity to get acquainted with Yuan Desheng.

Yuan Desheng wanted to eat spicy dishes, so he could cook them himself.

Yuan Desheng was not tempted to make the spicy dried fish that he got a few days ago.

Thinking of this, Xu Zhuo rushed to the Yangtze River and said, "Uncle Yu, call me when you come to the store tomorrow morning, I want to make some dishes for the grandpas to try..."

Chapter 705 Fire Heel Fairy Duck

At five o'clock in the morning, Xu Zhuo followed Yu Changjiang out.

When he came to the store, Xu Zhuo went to the kitchen, while Yu Changjiang went to check the ingredients purchased today and arrange the work to be done today.

Today, this group of old men will go to Yangzhou University to sign the appointment of visiting professors.

But breakfast will still be eaten on the first floor.

Xu Zhuo planned to take this opportunity to prepare a few dishes to make a good impression on the group of chefs.

The first thing to do is the fire heel fairy duck of Zhejiang cuisine.

Although what Xu Zhuo wanted to cook was steaming Sanchou, but he really wanted to cook this dish in the back kitchen on the first floor, so the first floor might have to be closed for a day today.

Because the stench of this dish is too strong.

Especially when it comes out of the pot, the dishes that already have a strong smell are steamed in this way, and the taste is even stronger. Even if the hood is turned on to the maximum, it is still unbearable.

In addition, this is not my own shop, it is more suitable to make fire heel fairy duck.

You can't offend the people on the first floor just because you flattered Dai Zhenting.

Moreover, making the Immortal Duck not only allows Dai Zhenting to test his own level, but also allows other famous chefs to try how well he can cook this Zhejiang dish.

Hokkien cuisine is known for its soup, which also showed Tian Chengrun how good he is at making soup.

In order to make this dish, Xu Zhuo made the ingredients for Yu Changjiang last night. Now when he came to the kitchen, the first thing Xu Zhuo saw was the duck that had been slaughtered.

Sheldon duck is a very popular ingredient in the Jiangnan area. Whether it is cooking or hanging soup, the taste is first-class, and the meat of shelduck is relatively tender and firm in taste, which is a good ingredient.

In addition to the duck, Xu Zhuo also saw the excellent Jinhua ham treasured by Yu Changjiang.

Jinhua ham is divided into five parts according to different eating methods.

The part of the pig’s trotters is called the fire claw. It has more tendons and less meat, so it is more suitable for stewing soup.

The upper part of the pig’s trotters is called the fire heel. It has a strong aroma and excellent meat quality. It is most suitable for cooking with duck meat. The two ingredients complement each other.

Going up, it is the top, and it is also the most tender and densest part of the ham, and it can even be cut and eaten raw.

However, Zhejiang people prefer to use this part to make the housekeeping dish in Zhejiang cuisine: Honey Juice Fire Fang.

Next to the top is the Chinese side. Compared with the top side, the Chinese side has higher bone content, so the quality is not as good as the top side, and it is more suitable for steaming and frying.

As for the dripping oil on the top, it can basically only be used for soup.

Because the ham is fermented and stored upside down, the fat and salt in the ham will gather at the oil dripping part, resulting in heavy oil and salt here, which is perfect for stewing soup.

The ham has been divided according to different parts, Xu Zhuo picked out the fire heel part, ready to start making fire heel fairy duck.

This dish is not difficult to make, just put the two ingredients together and stew them.

However, it has high requirements for ingredients and is famous, so it was judged as a B-level signature dish by the system.

Xu Zhuo boiled a pot of water first, and put a few slices of ginger into the pot.

After it boils, pour some cooking wine, and then put the duck with the butt off into the water to blanch.

This step must use a strong fire. It is best to boil the water again as soon as the duck is put into the pot, so that the dirt in the pores of the duck can be washed out to the maximum extent, and the duck will not be fully matured.

After the water boils, skim off the foam, then fish out the duck and rinse it with warm water.

Then pour out the water in the pot, boil some hot water, wash the fire heel with hot water, and hang some unfaded pig hairs on the surface with a knife.

After everything was done, Xu Zhuo found a casserole, put a small bamboo grate on the bottom, then put the duck in it facing down by itself, and then put in the washed heels.

Then pour in clean water, put a scallion knot and smashed ginger, cover with a lid, bring to a boil over high heat, then change to low heat and simmer slowly.

It has to be simmered for two hours before this fire heel fairy duck can be done.

After stewing the casserole, Xu Zhuo boiled some hot water, took out the small dried fish bought in the Yangtze River, soaked it in hot water, and washed off the dust and excess salt on the surface at the same time.

Since there is a master of Hunan cuisine, it is natural to use the method of Hunan cuisine.

Xu Zhuo's understanding of Hunan cuisine is limited, so he pondered for a long time last night, and finally decided to let Yu Changjiang buy a can of chopped peppers.

Well, change the bean paste in the spicy dried fish to chopped chili.

It should be Hunan cuisine...

Right?

In addition to chopped chili, there is also millet spicy.

It is rare to buy peppers as hot as millet peppers in Yangzhou City, but the buyer on the first floor still bought them, and the quality is not bad.

As for whether it was spicy or not, Xu Zhuo didn't know.

After preparing the dishes, Xu Zhuo found another tender hen.

This is the ingredient for making boiled chicken later.

In addition to the white-cut chicken, Xu Zhuo also planned to make Wenzheng Mountain bamboo shoots.

Of course, this was adjusted by him according to his skills.

After all, although bamboo shoots can be bought in Yangzhou, they are not from Wenzheng Mountain in Huizhou. Strictly speaking, even if this dish is made, it can only be called ham with bamboo shoots.

But Xu Zhuo decided to give it a try.

Whether it is delicious or not, first express your attitude.

Anyway, don't try to run away from any of the eight major cuisines, you have to learn all of them, it depends on whether this group of people is active or passive.

There are still a few dishes left, such as the oil-boiled double crisp, oil-splashed bean curd, and crab in Shandong cuisine, and the Kung Pao chicken in Sichuan cuisine, all of which Xu Zhuo cooks.

The last time I ate morning tea in Yangzhou, I always felt that it tasted so light.

Today, I will have a heavy-flavored morning tea, so that Yangzhou people can feel the taste of heavy-flavored dishes.

As for Huaiyang cuisine...

It was only now that Xu Zhuo realized that he didn't seem to have learned a single Huaiyang dish, and he hadn't even used the skills he devoted himself to learning...

A little mistake.

In the past two days, I have to look for an opportunity to learn a Huaiyang dish from Yu Peiyong with my dedicated and studious skills.

As for this morning...

Xu Zhuo felt a little worried.

Except for Fujian cuisine, which he has never touched, he has basically cooked dishes from other cuisines.

Now only Huaiyang cuisine remains.

If I don't do something, I'm really sorry for Grandpa.

But what to do?

Boss Xu's knife skills are good, but he doesn't know much about Huaiyang cuisine.

When he was worrying, Xu Zhuo suddenly noticed.

Not far away, the group of cooks who made morning tea had already started to work.

There is a middle-aged chef who is finely chopping dried shredded rice at the moment, and it seems that he intends to make hot dried shredded rice.

Xu Zhuo regained his spirits immediately.

He originally planned to learn a Huaiyang dish from Yu Peiyong.

But now that we have caught up with hot dry silk, let's learn from it.

Just waiting for a table to be made later, this will also make Yu Peiyong look good.

He stared at the chef intently, and soon, the system's notification sounded in his mind.

"Ding! The host studies hard, inspires concentration and eagerness to learn skills, and obtains the famous Huaiyang cuisine-Nine Silk Soup, congratulations to the host."
