Food starts with noodles

And compared to the northerners, the Jingchu area really attaches great importance to the Dragon Boat Festival, and it is really a big festival for them.
Dragon boat racing in the provincial capital is impossible, but eating zongzi can still satisfy this multi-millionaire employee.
There are all kinds of ingredients in the store, so Xu Zhuo cleaned up and started to prepare the ingredients for making whole chicken dumplings.
This zongzi is big and needs a lot of ingredients.
Mainly include whole chicken, pork belly, bacon, sausage, chestnut, mung bean, red bean, red date, dried shrimp, peanut and so on.
In fact, there is nothing particular about the ingredients, as long as there are whole chicken and glutinous rice.
Pork belly sausages are all stuffed into the chicken belly, so that the chicken can be propped up and it will not be strangled by the zong leaves.
Originally Xu Zhuo planned to find some banana leaves in the provincial capital.
But the banana trees here in the provincial capital seem to be green plants, and if you skim off the leaves rashly, you will be beaten, and it seems too naive to buy green plants and take banana leaves yourself.
So Xu Zhuo pondered for a long time and decided to make it with zong leaves.
This thing is affordable and easy to purchase.
More importantly, it will not be so shocking.
However, there are also disadvantages, that is, the whole chicken rice dumpling cannot be wrapped perfectly, because the leaves are too small to cover the huge size of the whole chicken rice dumpling.
You can only make do with a few more layers.
But in this way, the whole rice dumpling will look wrinkled, without the temperament of Guangxi's champion whole chicken rice dumpling and the handsomeness of a small mountain.
To Xu Zhuo, this was somewhat regrettable.
But generally speaking, this zongzi is for others to try out, and there is no need to deliberately pursue appearance, as long as the zongzi is delicious.
The delicacy of Zhuangyuan Whole Chicken Rice Dumpling is not only large in size and requires a lot of ingredients, but it is also very time-consuming to actually make it.
The first thing is to soak the glutinous rice for ten hours. Only when it is thoroughly soaked in water will the glutinous rice taste softer and more delicious.
In addition, the mung beans, red beans and peanuts to be used also need to be soaked. Only when they are soft and soaked thoroughly, can the rice dumplings made be tasty and more delicious.
Xu Zhuo soaked these several ingredients in water basins, and then carried all these water basins to the cold storage.
The temperature is too high now, and the kitchen is also a high-temperature environment. Soaking ingredients at this temperature for a long time can easily spoil the ingredients.
Therefore, it is the first choice to soak the ingredients in low temperature conditions.
When soaking these ingredients, any amount of red beans, mung beans and peanuts is fine. There is no specific requirement. After all, it is just a topping.
But sticky rice is different.
The most important part of this delicacy is glutinous rice, so it must not be soaked less.
When making zongzi, not only the chicken needs to be wrapped with a layer of glutinous rice, but also some glutinous rice should be put in the chicken belly when filling the stuffing.
Otherwise, after the zongzi is ready, there will be a lot of soup in the chicken belly, which will affect the overall sense and taste.
So add glutinous rice to absorb all the gravy from the chicken belly, which not only tastes better, but also has a completely different sensory experience.
After soaking several ingredients, Xu Zhuo began to pack the whole chicken to be used.
Originally he was going to make one.
But when Li Hao and Lao Meng heard that they were going to make zongzi wrapped in a whole chicken, they both expressed their desire to eat it once in the live broadcast room.
This request made Xu Zhuo prepare an extra chicken.
Although it's okay for everyone to eat whole chicken rice dumplings together in the live broadcast room, but Mr. Xu, who is in the stage of social death recently, said that he would not participate in the live broadcast.
At that time, let Li Hao and Lao Meng share one zongzi in the live broadcast room, and the others eat another zongzi outside the live broadcast room.
It sounds petty for a large group of people to eat a zongzi, but when the zongzi exceeds ten catties, it is normal for a group of people to share it.
Anyway, Xu Zhuo felt that he could only take half a catty at most. After all, this is glutinous rice, which is highly sticky and slow to digest, which can easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort, so he dare not eat too much.
The chickens Xu Zhuo prepared were two freshly slaughtered big roosters bought from the market.
After all, it is eaten by oneself. It is a bit difficult to use three yellow chickens or broilers, but the big rooster is more practical. Even if you don’t eat zongzi and just eat meat, it can easily fill you up.
However, it is not so easy for a big rooster to be wrapped in rice dumplings. It must be marinated first.
And be sure to marinate the chicken thoroughly, so that the dumplings taste good.
It tastes more delicious.
Xu Zhuo washed the slaughtered rooster twice in a basin, chopped off the head and feet, tore off the lymphatic tissue in the neck, and removed the buttocks.
Remove all parts of the chicken that are prone to poor cleaning and have peculiar smells, and then wash it again before marinating.
The ingredients for marinating the chicken are not troublesome, soy sauce cooking wine, green onion and ginger are enough.
Put the chicken in a pot, pour light soy sauce cooking wine and sliced green onion and ginger into it.
Rub the sauce on the chicken repeatedly with your hands to allow the chicken to fully absorb it, then fill the chicken belly with scallion knots and some ginger slices.
Finally, put it in the cold storage and marinate at low temperature.
After all these were done, Xu Zhuo took another basin of clear water, soaked the dried zong leaves he bought in it, and put heavy objects on them, so that the zong leaves were completely submerged in the water.
Dried zong leaves can only be used after soaking.
As for why wet rice dumplings are not used...
Xu Zhuo was worried that there would be pesticides on the zong leaves, and that the leaves would be flooded with microorganisms after being wet for a long time, so he always felt that they would not be so hygienic and healthy.
After all the ingredients are prepared, the next step is to wait quietly.
After soaking the glutinous rice and marinating the chicken thoroughly, you can make the famous Zongyuan Whole Chicken Rice Dumpling.
Xu Zhuo was looking forward to it.
But when he was proud, Guo Xingwang walked over with his mobile phone, his face full of doubts.
"Xu Zhuo, the Weibo you just posted is so weird. You just graduated from school. Why do you have such a sense of superiority?"
When Xu Zhuo heard this, a bad thought came to his mind.
What the hell!
Yuan Kang, the dog day, didn't post any shameful words on his Weibo, did he?
He took a look at Guo Xingwang's mobile phone, and he suddenly felt bad.
Repeatedly muttering in his mouth: "I'm so stupid, really..."
Chapter 1037
Xu Zhuo, like Mrs. Xianglin, began to regret leaving the matter to Yuan Kang.
The reason is...
The copy that Yuan Kang prepared for him is really too shameful.
The original text is as follows:
"I just came out of the kitchen with a poor signal. I was shaking with anger when I saw the rumors on the Internet. This society is full of oppression for the scumbags. Is it wrong for us not to take credits or graduate certificates? Fortunately, we still have the old ones." You can look up the serial number of the school certificate. But forget about the invoices for school, my family doesn’t have the habit of keeping invoices..."
The whole copy is nothing but jokes, and there is no excuse.
But this study certificate has already explained everything.
People who go to college, even if they do a new year in their senior year, will earn enough credits, and then get their graduation certificates and degree certificates.
If there is a relationship, there will be various entrusted relationships, just to be able to get the certificate smoothly.
As for the school certificate, this thing is for the kind of mud that can't support the wall.
In fact, in the senior year, there will be a few relatively easy make-up exams. Those who failed the previous subjects can almost pass the make-up exam. After all, the school will not really not issue a diploma.
But if you don't use it if you have a chance, or if you don't pay attention to the graduation certificate at all, then the graduation certificate will serve you.
It's not that Xu Zhuo didn't pay attention to the graduation certificate, but it was mainly because of the last make-up exam. He was busy brushing copies with the trade union people until the early morning the night before.
Then I checked the time and planned to go to the examination room after a while.
When I opened my eyes, it was already 02:30 in the afternoon.
Perfectly missed the time for the make-up exam.
He is also lazy, and if he misses it, he misses it. Instead of going to the counselor, he turns around and turns on the computer.
Since you missed the make-up exam, don't miss the copy.
With this mentality, Boss Xu played until graduation...
He checked on the Internet at that time, and the study certificate had the same effect as a graduation certificate.
But this is only in theory. In fact, which company will admit a student who has graduated from school?
Unless the boss is your own family.
After reading this post, Xu Zhuo looked at the comments that were highly rated.
The result is that the first one is a series of hilarious expressions;
The second is "one mouth is an old boxer";
The third is "Cao Yunjin feels offended";
The fourth one is "Hawick Lau: I can't get past this set, right? [狗头]"
Anyway, there is no decent one.
Seeing other celebrities deal with this kind of crisis in a self-deprecating way, Xu Zhuo admired them for being flexible and able to afford and let go.
But when it was my turn, I realized that this sense of shame was too strong.
Although there is no direct social death, there is only one breath left.
He regrets it now, but the matter has come to this point, and the comment area is full of joy, which can be regarded as achieving his goal.
Of course, the reason why it went so smoothly was mainly because of Yuan Kang's secret efforts. Otherwise, how could there be so few comments that made people laugh when they reached the top?
These are all tricks.
Xu Zhuo returned the phone to Guo Xingwang, and he decided to make zongzi honestly recently, not surfing the Internet, and not caring about the progress of this matter.
Because it's so embarrassing.
Early the next morning, when Xu Zhuo came to the store, he soaked the dried shrimp first.
Dried shrimp is also called sea rice, which is a dried product of sea shrimp.
This thing does not need to be soaked for too long, it can be used after soaking slightly.
Adding dried shrimps to the zongzi can make the zongzi more delicious and rich in taste.
After the shrimps were soaked, Xu Zhuo cut the prepared pork belly into finger-sized dices, and then marinated them in ginger and scallion cooking wine.
Pork belly should not be marinated too early, otherwise it will taste salty.
Just marinate it before cooking, because after filling the chicken belly, the pork belly is actually still marinating.
After breakfast, all the ingredients have been prepared, what should be soaked has been soaked, what should be marinated has been marinated thoroughly, and it is ready to make zongzi.
But before wrapping, the glutinous rice should be seasoned first.
This delicacy is a kind of salty rice dumpling, so the glutinous rice used must be adjusted to a slightly salty taste first, so that the rice dumplings will be more delicious.
Of course, if you put more salt when marinating the chicken, you don’t need to season the glutinous rice now, because the salty taste of the chicken will soak into the glutinous rice.
But then the chicken would be very salty and unpalatable.
So when marinating yesterday, Xu Zhuo did not put any salt, but only put some light soy sauce, so that the chicken would not taste too salty.
But the side effect is that the glutinous rice will become tasteless, so we need to adjust the flavor of the glutinous rice now.
Pour the soaked glutinous rice into a basin with dry water, sprinkle some salt and five-spice powder in it, pour some light soy sauce, and then pour in a tablespoon of peanut oil.
After stirring evenly, the seasoning of glutinous rice is over.
When doing this step, just add a little salt and light soy sauce. You don’t need to put too much, so as not to overpower the taste and affect the taste.
As for why cooking oil is added, it is mainly to add that oily taste to the glutinous rice, which can make the rice dumplings taste glutinous but not sticky, very delicious.
