Food starts with noodles

When the hot pot ingredients are reheated, the aroma will come out again, but after this process, the aroma will become much softer, and there will be no such pungent smell now.

"Of course, it's not impossible to eat, but if it is not cooled and solidified, the hot pot ingredients will not be in the most perfect state, the fragrance will be strong and not soft, and the flavor in the spices has not been fully released, all of which will affect the quality and taste of the hot pot. Yes. Therefore, I advise you not to eat it today, but to eat it tomorrow, it will definitely give you a different feeling."

Xu Zhuo's words made them stop, and then looked at each other, giving up the idea of ​​eating hot pot.

Sun Panpan kicked Li Hao angrily: "It's all your fault, you have to argue about eating hot pot, isn't this embarrassing?"

Li Hao curled his lips and muttered in a low voice: "Obviously you said you want to eat hot pot, I just helped you get the food..."

Sun Panpan's eyes immediately became sharp: "What did you say?"

Li Hao "..."

Boss Xu is right, women really have nothing to say.

He looked at the dishes in his hands, and then at the hot pot ingredients that occasionally spilled out of the pot. He looked at the two girls with some embarrassment and asked, "What should we do now?"

Yu Keke put down the dishes in his hands and said, "I'm going back to work, I haven't done anything all morning, so I'm going to walk around, hurry up and get busy while I'm about to eat lunch, and set an example for the employees."

Just like that, the skipping trio put down the dishes and returned to the company. When Xu Zhuo came back with the remaining half bottle of Coke, he shook his head helplessly when he saw the dishes left on the workbench.

I really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. It's a waste to throw good dishes here like this.

or……

Is it okay to make these dishes into Maoxuewang?

Xu Zhuo actually doesn’t know how to make Maoxuewang, but he knows how to boil water. In addition, Maoxuewang is made by boiling all kinds of leftovers in red oil, then adding peppercorns and peppers, and pouring hot oil. All kinds of boiled vegetables actually come from the same source.

So Xu Zhuo decided to give it a try, even if it failed, it's okay, just throw it away, anyway, these dishes were thrown down by them.

But if it's delicious, when you can't think of what to eat in the future, you can make Maoxuewang.

No matter when, this dish occupies a place in the category of side dishes.

Especially in winter, a hot bowl of Maoxuewang, paired with a small bowl of rice, is delicious to eat, not to mention how comfortable it is.

To make Maoxuewang, the first thing to do is to change the knife.

Xu Zhuo took out the two boxes of duck blood thrown down by Yu Keke, washed it in clean water, and then cut the square duck blood diagonally with a knife.

Then align the two pieces of duck blood and cut them into thin slices with a thickness of four to five millimeters with a kitchen knife.

Duck blood should be sliced ​​as thin as possible, which will add more flavor and taste better.

The reason why it is cut into a triangle is that it looks a lot of points, and it is convenient to eat with chopsticks.

Usually, duck blood is cut into square slices, but this shape of duck blood is easy to break when eating with chopsticks.

This is not the case with triangular sheets, at least when they are clamped with chopsticks, they will not break easily.

After the duck blood was cut, Xu Zhuo soaked it in clean water.

Then start to change the knife for the squid.

Just now, when I didn't pay attention, a few people slipped to the supermarket next door to buy hot pot dishes, not only hairy duck blood bean sprouts, but also frozen products such as squid.

However, the quality of these dishes is not very high, especially the hairy tripe, which needs to be cleaned well.

The squid is also a frozen product, and I don’t know how long it has been frozen, but since I bought it, I can’t just throw it away. It’s better to use the waste to make dishes.

If it's delicious, I'll have a makeshift meal for lunch today.

If it doesn't taste good, you don't feel guilty about throwing it away. After all, I used these ingredients to be thrown away to experiment with the method of making Maoxuewang.

It is relatively troublesome to change the squid knife. First, the squid must be cut open, the internal organs inside must be cleaned, and finally the membrane on the surface of the squid must be torn off.

After tearing it off, Xu Zhuo picked up the slicing knife and began to slice the squid.

This kind of cross-shaped knife is not difficult for Xu Zhuo, and it is very smooth to cut.

In fact, there is already a machine for making patterned knives, such as squid, which does not need manual work at all. After the squid is put into the machine, it will be marked with uniform patterned knife soon.

However, the beauty of the flower knife is beautiful, but it is not in place when it is hand-made.

Firstly, the depth is not enough, and secondly, the knife flower is too rigid, without the spirituality of hand-made knife flower.

Xu Zhuo put flower knives evenly on the squid slices, and then cut them into small pieces about five centimeters. These squid will be rolled up after being heated and become beautiful and beautiful squid rolls, and the flower knives on the top will be covered with red oil , it tastes very enjoyable, and it is also super delicious.

After Xu Zhuo changed the squid to a knife, he also changed all the side dishes such as luncheon meat, tripe, lotus root, tofu skin, etc. to a knife.

Then he prepared some ingredients such as green onion, ginger, pepper, star anise and dried chili.

In order to make this dish delicious, he also specially made knife-edged peppers with dried chilies and some peppercorns, so that the taste will be more fragrant when poured with hot oil when it is finally out of the pan.

After everything was ready, Xu Zhuo looked at the time and it was almost noon, so he set up the frying pan and prepared to make it.

Pour oil into the pan, then put the onion, ginger, pepper, star anise and other spices into it and fry until fragrant, then add the prepared bean paste.

In order to make the dishes taste better, and to make the fried red oil more beautiful, Xu Zhuo deliberately put in more.

After the bean paste is put in, stir-fry quickly with a spoon. After the red oil is exceeded, add water to the pot and start cooking.

Boiling can make the aroma of the ingredients blend into the soup, and when the ingredients are cooked later, the ingredients can become more flavorful.

After the water boiled, Xu Zhuo boiled it for a few more minutes, allowing the flavors of the ingredients to fully blend into the soup.

Then he took a colander and scooped out all the scallion, ginger, pepper, star anise, bean paste, and other ingredients in the pot. After scooping it up, he put the changed ingredients into the pot in order to start cooking.

When it is almost cooked, pour all the ingredients in the pot and the soup of the ingredients into the pot, then sprinkle a thick layer of chili peppers on top, and sprinkle some chopped green onions.

Burn some hot oil and pour it on top, and the aroma immediately permeates the entire back kitchen.

The ruddy fat is wrapped with properly cooked ingredients. Even people who don't like spicy food will be moved when they see this dish.

But Xu Zhuo didn't know whether it was delicious or not.

There's no way, without Mao Xuewang's skills, it's just so useless.

Chapter 1264 The Last Step of Making Hot Pot Ingredients

While everyone was not paying attention, Xu Zhuo picked up a piece of duck blood and put it in his mouth to taste it.

The duck blood wrapped in red oil is delicious, especially the red oil, which has a spicy and spicy aroma as soon as it is imported.

This smell is not strong, but just right to stimulate the taste buds, even if you are not hungry, you will have the idea of ​​eating a big piece at this moment.

The duck blood is fragrant, soft and smooth, and it is slightly springy when chewed in the mouth, making it very comfortable to eat.

As for the taste, since Xu Zhuo only used bean paste for seasoning and did not add any other seasonings such as salt, it tasted a little salty.

But it goes very well with rice.

He tasted the other side dishes, and they all tasted good, so he felt relieved.

Xu Zhuo came outside with this basin of Maoxuewang, filled another small basin of rice for himself, and ate it in big mouthfuls.

"Xiao Zhuo, what are you eating?"

When he was eating vigorously, Feng Weiguo's voice sounded from behind.

The old man originally planned to ask Xu Zhuo to continue filming videos today. After all, Dai Zhenting and Zheng Guangyao had been filming with Xu Zhuo for a while, and Feng Weiguo tried many times but failed.

Now that I have finally spared time, I naturally need to shoot more.

Well, it's fine if their status in the circle is not as high as those two old men, but it's a pity that the number of videos can't be compared. After all, these videos are not difficult to shoot. As long as you have time, you can shoot several in a day.

So these few days, Feng Weiguo thought about what video to shoot with Xu Zhuo whenever he was free.

Today, he originally planned to shoot with Xu Zhuo the crispy chicken that is indispensable at the banquet in Shanxi area, but Xu Zhuo said that he wanted to make a hot pot base, so Feng Weiguo didn't come to the store, but went to Zhao Jinma to argue.

Now that Zhao Jinma is full of food and drink, Feng Weiguo intends to see how the hot pot base made by Xu Zhuo is.

Finally, when I came to the store, I found that Xu Zhuo was eating Maoxuewang, which seemed to be delicious.

Ok?

The hot pot ingredients are ready to use?

Feng Weiguo was a little puzzled, but he was an old man after all, he didn't impulsively ask how Xu Zhuo was cooking, and didn't directly say that Xu Zhuo's hot pot ingredients can't be used directly, but walked over slowly, knowingly asked what he was eating .

Following Xu Zhuo's Maoxuewang and started talking about hot pot ingredients, isn't it just right.

It can not only show oneself, but also point out the shortcomings of Xu Zhuo's approach.

The best of both worlds.

His wishful thinking was crackling, but Xu Zhuo didn't cooperate at all.

"When making hot pot base, Keke and the others clamored for hot pot and bought vegetables from the supermarket next door, but the hot pot ingredients can't be used today, so I used waste to make Maoxuewang from the vegetables they bought. , Grandpa Feng, have you had lunch? Would you like to have some together? "

Feng Weiguo shook his head and waved his hands with a smile: "I have eaten it. The stewed noodles eaten by your grandfather Zhao are very delicious. Well, then you can continue to eat. I will go to the back to see the hot pot ingredients you made."

Xu Zhuo agreed, and continued to eat on his own.

After he finished eating a small pot of rice, Xu Zhuo also ate half of the pot of Maoxuewang. His mouth was full of oil and his stomach swelled after eating. It was really enjoyable.

When he came to the back kitchen, Xu Zhuo was just about to throw away the remaining Maoxuewang, but was stopped by Jianguo: "Keep it, I'll eat it with rice when I'm done with work, today's lunch is not very good. It suits my taste, I didn't eat too much."

The staff meal in the store at noon today is stir-fried noodles. Maybe it's because I cook too much at one time, so the stir-fried noodles are a bit mushy and taste a bit greasy.

Not only did Jianguo not eat much, but so did everyone else.

That's why Jianguo will be moved when he sees Xu Zhuo's Maoxuewang.

Stir-fried noodles and so on, how can Maoxuewang be enjoyed with rice, and this Maoxuewang is not only enjoyable to eat, but also goes well with rice.

Xu Zhuo put Maoxuewang on the workbench, covered it with a pot lid, and then wandered around to see the hot pot ingredients he made.

Although it has been more than an hour since the hot pot ingredients are ready, the temperature of the hot pot ingredients is still very high.

Fat already has the function of heat preservation, and animal fat is the best among them. It is absolutely impossible for these hot pot bottom materials to cool down within a few hours.

Xu Zhuo picked up a long-handled spoon and stirred the pot a few times, checking the temperature in the pot by the way.

These hot pot ingredients have not yet reached the final step. We have to wait until the hot pot bottom ingredients are not too hot, put them on a tray, let them cool and solidify naturally, and then divide them into pieces. This is considered a success.

If it is put directly in the pot to solidify, the upper half of the pot will be full of butter, while the lower half will be full of slag, and the distribution will be uneven.

Only by putting it in a shallower tray and smoothing out the slag before the butter has solidified, will the hot pot bottom material be half butter and half slag.

Not only is it beautiful, but it is also more resistant to cooking when cooking hot pot.

Xu Zhuo looked around, and then remembered, didn't Feng Weiguo come to see the hot pot ingredients he was making just now?

Why didn't you hear back?

Normally, Feng Weiguo would indeed praise Xu Zhuo.

But today he came here with a fault-finding attitude, originally thinking to find out some shortcomings, and then make a few words to show off.

However, after seeing Xu Zhuo's hot pot ingredients, Feng Weiguo realized that he was wrong.

Reluctantly, he scooped out some slag from the pot, looked at it, and smelled it, and found that the hot pot base made by Xu Zhuo was completely irreproachable, even better than some hot pot restaurants.

This made Feng Weiguo a little unacceptable for a while. In this comparison, Guo Xingwang seemed mediocre.

So the old man approached Guo Xingwang angrily, reprimanded him for not working hard to learn cooking skills, and even scolded Shi Lei.

Xu Zhuo had nothing to do, and he had to wait for the hot pot ingredients to cool down, so he didn't go anywhere, but was busy in the back kitchen.

He was busy until 02:30 in the afternoon, after the afternoon rush hour passed, he finally had a chance to breathe.

He took a bottle of iced Coke and drank a few sips, then walked over to the big iron pot containing the hot pot ingredients and looked at it. The temperature in the pot was still very high.

This was actually in Xu Zhuo's expectation, because when the stewed soup in the store was sealed with grease, after turning off the fire at night, it was still very hot the next morning.

The braised soup is still the same, not to mention these hot pot bases made purely with butter.

It wasn't until 05:30 in the afternoon that Xu Zhuo came over with a few trays. First, he used a long-handled spatula to stir the hot pot bottom ingredients in the pot again, so that the oil and the slag were blended together.

Then he took a ladle, scooped up the hot pot bottom ingredients in the pot and put them on the tray until it was almost [-]% full, and then replaced it with another one.

At this time, the grease and slag in the tray are basically half in half, and because it is filled only after being stirred well, the slag that settles down should also be flat, and there is no need to adjust it.

After Xu Zhuo took out all the hotpot ingredients from the pot, he carefully carried the tray to the side of the cold storage to speed up the cooling and condensation of the hotpot ingredients.

Tomorrow night, I will be able to open up and have a good hot pot meal.
