Chapter 185 Home Version Shredded Chicken

Yu Wei washed the rice cooker, wiped off the water, plugged it in, and spread green onions and ginger slices on the bottom of the pot.

Finally, pour the whole chicken and marinated sauce into the rice cooker.

"In fact, the rice cooker is very useful. You can even use it as a stew pot, and the effect is not bad. It can not only be used to stew chicken, but also pork knuckles, which are equally tender."

After all, the difficulty of braised chicken in a rice cooker is to marinate the whole chicken. As long as the marinating time is enough for the flavor to develop, you can put it in.

Close the lid and press one button to cook.

You can ignore it.

"Then what? What do you want to cook?" Cheng Wanwan asked.

"There are also shredded chicken, pineapple beef, and mustard shrimp. I originally planned to cook rice, but Lao Jin said that it would be fine to eat meat instead of rice. After all, we didn't have rice here, so we just had a chicken. Share it between two people, add three more dishes, and you’ll be full no matter what.”

"But now there's me, what should I do?" Cheng Wanwan asked with a smile.

This is obviously a matter of survival.

Yu Wei immediately waved his hand and said: "It's very simple. I also bought extra eggs and I will make you a super slippery steamed egg."

Hearing this, Cheng Wanwan smiled so much that her eyes narrowed.

"Xiao Yuyu, I also want to eat water balls~" Jin Zhe immediately acted like a baby~

The next second - the powerful Vajra Kick.

Jin Zhe flew out.

Yu Wei took out three whole chicken legs and soaked them all in water to let the blood out.

"Because today's theme is home cooking, everything is kept simple and won't be the kind of recipe made by a master chef. The materials and seasonings used are simple and convenient."

Yu Wei took out all three chicken legs.

Then he took out a packet of salt-baked powder and a packet of sand ginger powder.

"You can buy this thing directly in the supermarket. As for the soaked chicken legs, the blood will basically come out, and then we can start marinating."

Yu Wei mixed the salt baking powder and sand ginger powder together and mixed them before marinating the chicken legs.

"The marinating time doesn't take long, it just gives a little base flavor. Of course, you can also just marinate it with salt, just for ordinary home cooking."

After Yu Wei coated the three chicken legs with the two kinds of flour, he started to boil water.

"There are many ways to make shredded chicken. For example, you can use boiled chicken, soak it, or steam it. What I will teach you today is to steam it."

After the water in the pot boils, place the steaming rack, then place the marinated chicken legs on a plate covered with green onion and ginger slices, and steam them directly in the pot.

"It only takes 15 minutes."

Yu Wei put the remaining sand ginger powder and salt baking powder together, then added sesame sesame oil and set it aside.

At this time he looked at Cheng Wanwan.

"Guess what I'm going to do next?"

Cheng Wanwan shook her head.

Yu Wei opened the refrigerator, took out the ice tray, and poured it into a basin.

"If you soak it in ice water, the juice of the chicken will be lost. If it is a whole chicken, it will be fine, but the chicken legs have cuts, so they won't taste as good after soaking."

Hearing Cheng Wanwan's doubts, Yu Wei took out two more food-grade sealed bags.

"Deng Deng~ With it, you won't be afraid anymore~"

After 15 minutes, he opened the lid of the pot, and Yu Wei used a tong to put the three chicken drumsticks dripping with juice into the sealed bag. After sealing, put them into ice water to cool down.

"Here, I want to tell you something very important. Don't throw away the chicken juice after steaming the chicken. That's where evolution comes from."

Yu Wei threw away the green onion and ginger on the plate. The plate was full of yellow chicken juice and chicken fat, which smelled very fragrant.

At this time, Yu Wei changed the pot, heated it, poured in the chicken juice, and added some peanut oil.

Then stir-fry slowly to evaporate the water inside. When the oil is hot, pour in the salt-baked sand ginger powder mixed before.

There was a tingling sound, and the fragrance instantly rose upwards.

"Actually, you don't necessarily need this chicken juice, because this chicken juice will have a little fishy smell, just use hot oil."

Yu Wei also took advantage of this moment to stir quickly to evenly mix the powder with the hot oil.

"Finally, just fry another white sesame seed."

Stir-frying white sesame seeds is very simple. You only need to stir-fry the sesame seeds over low heat until they make a crackling sound.

After frying the sesame seeds, the three large chicken drumsticks had also been cooled. After taking them out of the ice water, Yu Wei put on gloves and began to tear them open with ruthless iron hands.

Shredded chicken means shredding it by hand.

"Ah, by the way, my recipe is Cantonese-style shredded chicken, but the skills are universal. What kind of hot and sour lemon do you like, crushed peanuts, etc.? You just need to slightly replace the salt-baked powder. There is no need to do anything. conflicting."

The three chicken legs were torn apart quickly, and then Yu Wei poured the oil mixed powder on the torn chicken, and then poured in a large handful of fried white sesame seeds.

Then stir wildly with ruthless iron hands.

"Come on, come on, try my home version of shredded chicken."

Cheng Wanwan couldn't help but ask: "Don't you have to wait until everything is ready to eat together?"

"Of course not. We cook the same thing and eat the same thing. Anyway, we shoot the same thing. It's not a big deal."

That seemed to make sense, so Cheng Wanwan squatted beside the table with chopsticks and took a bite of the shredded chicken.

The first thing I felt was naturally the aroma, because Yu Wei used sesame sesame oil, stir-fried chicken sauce, and sprinkled a handful of white sesame seeds.

Basically every shredded chicken will have sesame seeds on it.

As soon as you take a bite, the aroma of chicken fat and sesame is very prominent.

"This is chilled chicken." Cheng Wanwan said seriously.

"No way, I bought it in the supermarket. If you go to the market, you can buy fresh chicken legs. The chicken stewed in the rice cooker is also chilled chicken. If you want to eat fresh chicken, you have to go to some good restaurants or some places that sell live chicken. There is a chicken market, but you can cook it at home, and a lot of it is chilled chicken.”

In fact, this is the case in many places now. Large hotels either have their own farms or related suppliers.

But the most important thing is that the chicken must be fresh.

If you eat chilled chicken at home and eat chilled chicken in a big restaurant outside, then why eat out at all?

The mixed shredded chicken was placed on the table. Yu Wei said with a smile, "Try it. It's the most common way. The lower limit is low and the upper limit cannot be too high. Regarding the seasoning ratio, I will mention it at the end of the video. , you can try it out based on my ratio first, and you can adjust it yourself if you feel it’s not suitable.”

Without saying anything, Jin Zhe put on his gloves and ate directly with his hands.

"Eating shredded chicken with your hands has a unique flavor."

"This tastes delicious and full of flavor. The chicken leg meat is tender enough. Isn't it better than the shredded chicken we eat at the barbecue restaurant? Those chickens are often woody and hard."
