Food starts with noodles

Rhubarb and glutinous rice are kept in a room next to the warehouse.

As soon as he came to this room, Xu Zhuo smelled a sour smell. It smelled very good, a bit like yogurt, but compared to yogurt, the sour smell seemed stronger.

Guo Xingwang was more impatient, and immediately tore off the layer of plastic wrap covering the basin.

Suddenly, a strong sweet and sour smell floated out of the basin.

In this sour taste, there is also a smell of yogurt.

It's not bad, but the sour smell is a bit heavy, and I'm not used to it when I first smell it.

But after the smell dissipates and the concentration decreases, it feels like being in a yogurt-making workshop, the sour taste is very comfortable.

The glutinous rice and rhubarb rice in the basin have completely swollen, and the volume has grown a lot. Yesterday it was only half a basin, but now it is almost the whole basin.

And the physalis water in the basin that was almost full yesterday has disappeared.

Obviously, it has been absorbed by glutinous rice and rhubarb rice.

After glutinous rice and rhubarb rice absorbed the physalis water, they also started to ferment inside.

This is called pulping.

After the two brought out the two basins, Feng Weiguo began to direct with his hands behind his back.

"Xingwang, take out the glutinous rice and big yellow rice and put them in a basket, and control the excess water. Xiao Zhuo, go and peel that pumpkin, remove the flesh and cut it into small pieces, and steam it in the steamer."

After finishing the order, Feng Weiguo himself was not idle. He fished out the soaked red dates, peeled them first, then cut them into dices the size of raisins, and put them together with the raisins for later use.

After all these are done, you can make yellow rice cold cakes.

Chapter 1060 Yellow Rice Cold Cake

The recipe of yellow rice cold cake is actually not difficult, even Xu Zhuo himself thinks it is easier than imagined.

All you need is two...

Just a rice cooker.

Maybe one is fine, anyway, put these two kinds of rice that have been soaked for a day and night and are full of sour taste, and put them in the rice cooker separately.

Add water with the amount of normal steamed rice, then put some white sugar into it and stir it, then press the button for steaming rice.

With such a simple method, Xu Zhuo felt that even his own wife could do it.

There are many rice cookers in the back kitchen, so Feng Weiguo used two pots at a time to steam the rhubarb rice and glutinous rice together.

But if you do it at home, you don't have to be so proud.

All you need is a rice cooker, first steam the glutinous rice, and then steam the rhubarb rice.

The reason for following this order is that the shape of the yellow rice cold cake is that the glutinous rice is at the bottom and the yellow rice is at the top.

After the glutinous rice is steamed, it can be directly poured into the mold, and after being flattened, it can be sprinkled with chopped red dates and raisins to make the filling.After the yellow rice is steamed, the glutinous rice is almost cooled and formed.

In this way, another layer of yellow rice is covered, and it can be served on a plate in no time.

If you steam the yellow rice first, you have to wait until the glutinous rice is cooked before putting it into the mold.

It’s not that no one has thought of putting the yellow rice on the bottom and the glutinous rice on the top, but the final product is not satisfactory.

Although the taste is still the same, the appearance is quite different.

Because compared with glutinous rice, yellow rice does not have a good shaping effect, and it is easy to disperse.

Put the yellow rice underneath, this yellow rice cold cake is not shaped at all.

And the color is not as conspicuous as the yellow rice looks on it.

In particular, some sweet-scented osmanthus honey is poured on the yellow rice, and there is no need to taste it. The color alone is very craving.

When steaming the big yellow rice, Feng Weiguo ground the pumpkin that Xu Zhuo had steamed before into puree, and mixed it into the steaming pot of yellow rice.

In this way, the steamed yellow rice will be mixed with the pumpkin puree, so there is no need to stir it specially.

——The steamed yellow rice is very viscous, comparable to glutinous rice. Even if you want to stir it, you can't stir it for a while.

After the rice was steamed, Feng Weiguo found a few deeper trays, washed them clean, dried them, and then carefully brushed a layer of peanut oil on them with a brush.

The purpose of brushing oil is naturally to prevent adhesion.

There is no special mold for the back kitchen, so a tray can only be used instead.

However, this tray is suitable in depth and large enough, so it is a good choice for making molds.

The stewing time of glutinous rice and rhubarb rice is about the same as that of steamed rice.

After all, it has been thoroughly soaked. The rice grains have already absorbed the water, so they can be stewed in a short time.

If you put the unsoaked rice directly in the pot to simmer, you will have to wait a little longer.

While waiting, everyone was not idle. First, they seriously discussed the various steps of making yellow rice cold cakes, and then discussed how to split these steps so that people in the dessert department can master them.

While discussing these, Xu Zhuo looked at the red dates and raisins beside him, and asked Feng Weiguo on a whim: "Grandpa Feng, is it okay to put red bean paste in the middle of this yellow rice cold cake?"

Feng Weiguo stopped asking this question immediately.

He thought about it carefully, and then said: "It is indeed possible, not only red bean paste, but also mung bean paste, and even sweet potato puree, purple potato puree, black sesame paste and other fillings can be filled in."

Red dates and raisins are placed in the yellow rice cold cake as fillings, mainly to enrich the taste and add a refreshing, sour and sweet ingredient to this soft and glutinous snack.

If it is replaced with other fillings, it is naturally possible.

After all, both glutinous rice and yellow rice have been pulped, with a slight sweet and sour taste, as long as you use other ingredients as the filling, you can make this yellow rice cold cake wonderful.

So any filling can be used.

"Ding, the host actively participates in the improvement discussion of the dishes, triggers the [Bypassing by Analogy] skill, and rewards the D-level signature dessert—yellow rice cold cake, congratulations to the host."

???

Xu Zhuo's forehead was full of question marks.

what's the situation?

How could the skill be triggered after discussing it, and then somehow get the skill of this yellow rice cold cake?

As a participant, I was a little confused.

In fact, Xu Zhuo had the skill of inference by analogy when he first got the system.

It was the first time he made spicy lamb's trotters in Xu's restaurant, because more than ten chefs watched and studied, so the system rewarded such a skill.

But after getting this skill, it was never triggered again, and Xu Zhuo himself forgot about the existence of this skill.

Now, the trigger of this skill made Xu Zhuo realize a problem.

"The introduction of the skill says that when cooking a certain dish, there is a chance to develop a derivative of that dish."

Literally speaking, when cooking, it is possible to learn all related dishes.

But in the actual application, Xu Zhuo didn't trigger it once. Instead, he had nothing to do today to discuss the details of making yellow rice cold cakes with chefs who were also doing nothing, and triggered this skill.

"Does the system mean to discuss with people as much as possible in the future?"

Xu Zhuo felt that he should pay more attention to this skill in the future. If it is used well, it should be more powerful than studying hard.

After the button of the rice cooker jumped, Feng Weiguo didn't do it right away, but stayed bored for about ten minutes, then lifted the lid of the glutinous rice pot and started filling it into the tray.

As soon as it was opened, a very pleasant sweet and sour smell wafted out of the pot.

This smell made several chefs who didn't like desserts subconsciously swallow their saliva.

Feng Weiguo took the wooden shovel used for serving rice, first brushed a layer of oil on the surface, and then carefully put the sticky and soft glutinous rice in the pot into the tray.

Then use a metal spatula to spread out the glutinous rice patiently, and press again to press the glutinous rice to half the depth of the tray.

After flattening the glutinous rice, put it in the refrigerator to cool down.

Wait until all the glutinous rice in several trays is finished, and then take them out of the cold storage one by one.

At this moment, there is no need to wait for the glutinous rice to cool completely, but to lower the temperature slightly.

After the tray comes out, sprinkle the chopped red dates and raisins evenly.

Do not sprinkle too much, as long as there is a thin layer on the line.

Then Feng Weiguo opened the rice cooker for steaming rhubarb rice, dug out the yellow rice inside with a spatula, spread it on the glutinous rice, and spread it evenly. It is best to press it with a spatula again, so that it will be easier to shape after it cools down.

After digging out all the yellow rice, Feng Weiguo asked Xu Zhuo and the others to carry all these trays into the cold storage to start cooling.

Wait until the rice cakes are completely cooled before eating.

The so-called yellow rice cold cake is like this, it must be cooled thoroughly to be enjoyable.

An hour later, the rice cakes in the cold storage had completely cooled down.

Taking advantage of the fact that he was not too busy at the moment, Xu Zhuo took out a tray from inside, and used a kitchen knife to make a few horizontal and vertical cuts inside, and the whole piece of yellow rice cold cake was quickly divided into small pieces.

Then Xu Zhuo carefully put these yellow rice jelly cakes on the plate.

Drizzle with some prepared osmanthus honey.

Not to mention the taste, the appearance alone is enough to make people greedy.

The bottom of the yellow rice cold cake is pure white glutinous rice, and the top is big yellow rice with distinct grains and golden color.

On the top of the big yellow rice, there is honey mixed with dried osmanthus.

This honey not only makes the rhubarb rice look crystal clear, but also has a sweet taste that is enough to entice people's hearts.

This situation, in Shaanxi dialect, is:

It's so beautiful, it's so loud!

Chapter 1061 Random task completed ahead of time

Xu Zhuo and Guo Xingwang immediately started to eat.

The soft, glutinous and delicious rice cakes are ice-cold. In this hot weather, it tastes refreshing and refreshing.

The sweet-scented osmanthus honey poured on top adds a bit of sweetness to this ice cold.

As for the rice cake, it has a sour taste.

The taste is not strong, but it tastes just right.

Although the steamed yellow rice is soft and glutinous, it can still taste the distinct grains, which is slightly different from the taste of glutinous rice.

The diced red dates and raisins between the yellow rice and glutinous rice are a surprise.

Eating these ingredients suddenly in the soft and glutinous taste makes people smile unconsciously.

Among all the tastes, sweetness is closely related to emotions such as happiness and happiness, so if you want to be in a good mood, you should eat more desserts.

While talking about the taste of the yellow rice cold cake, Xu Zhuo chatted with Guo Xingwang about the positive meaning of desserts to people.

Of course, what he said was based on a chef's understanding.

I don't care if it's correct or not, I just give myself a reason to eat dessert.

Guo Xingwang was also very happy eating this dessert.

It's not like what Xu Zhuo said with emotion, but it's inexplicably cool to see him stealing food with the boss while others are working.

While eating this delicious yellow rice cold cake, Guo Xingwang touched Xu Zhuo with his shoulder: "This yellow rice cold cake must be new in the store, right?"

It was also his first time eating it, so this dessert surprised him.

Xu Zhuo nodded and said, "It's definitely new, it tastes so good, two cold cakes in summer, no matter how irritable people are, they will calm down."

He has already made a decision, not only will there be new updates in the store, but Xu Xiaochu's online store will also follow suit.

However, the new online store should be slower, because those in charge of the online store have to study the vacuum packaging and refrigerated transportation of cold cakes.

There are special personnel responsible for these things, Xu Zhuo doesn't need to worry about so much.
