Chapter 120 Bean Curd
After seeing off all the senior brothers, Li Heng was ready to make stinky tofu.
If you want to make stinky tofu, you must first make fermented bean curd.
As the name suggests, the raw material of bean curd is also tofu.
Li Heng first cut a piece of tofu the size of a palm into small pieces and steamed it in a steamer.
The steamed tofu is then placed in a cool place to use the mold in the air to inoculate and ferment naturally.
It is not successful until white mold grows on the surface of the tofu. This process takes about ten days.
Fortunately, Li Heng had the blessing of the Chaos Clock Formation, so he only had to wait for one day.
After everything was done, he didn't forget to find Lu Xiaoxiao to give him some advice.
Li Heng told Lu Xiaoxiao that these tofu were used by him to make new dishes, and asked Lu Xiaoxiao to watch his mouth and not eat it secretly.
This made Lu Xiaoxiao feel a little embarrassed.
"Brother Li Heng, you don't care about so many apprentices in the kitchen, but you just ordered me. You are discriminating. I want to report you."
Lu Xiaoxiao put his hands on his hips, stamped his feet, and said to Li Heng.
She admitted that she was a bit greedy, but not to the point of stealing half-finished products. This was completely insulting to her character.
"Report me? I have the final say in the entire Little Chef Peak. Do you want to report me to me?"
Li Heng suddenly remembered a line that was more suitable for the occasion: "Who in the hall is suing me?"
"you..."
Lu Xiaoxiao saw that he could not defeat Li Heng, so he immediately showed two rows of big teeth and aimed directly at Li Heng's arms. If you are not good at writing, then you should use martial ethics.
"Here you go again."
Fortunately, Li Heng was prepared. He took a wrong step backward to avoid the deer's small teeth, and he picked up a rolling pin and placed it in front of the deer's small mouth.
With a "chuck" sound, Lu Xiaoxiao did not refuse anyone who came, biting the rolling pin in one bite, and was lifted in the air by Li Heng.
"Look at you, you bite people even if you don't speak up. Apart from you and that apprentice, would you treat me like this? Who else but you would dare to secretly eat my experimental dishes?"
Li Heng turned around and confirmed to the spectators.
"Don't dare, don't dare, we are not as brave as our little senior sister."
Everyone waved their hands and said, after all, except for Lu Xiaoxiao, the other apprentices still respected Li Heng. Even the female man Tie Xin was not as presumptuous as Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Okay, okay, I'm just reminding you, why are you so sensitive? I won't say it anymore, isn't that enough?"
Li Heng comforted Lu Xiaoxiao who was suspended in the air by the rolling pin.
"Humph!"
Lu Xiaoxiao snorted proudly before releasing his mouth.
"The teeth are so nice."
Li Heng shook the saliva on the rolling pin, looked at the two rows of indelible tooth marks on it and praised it to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Thanks for the compliment."
Lu Xiaoxiao replied unceremoniously.
"It's okay. Let's disperse. Go and do whatever you need to do."
The daily interaction between Li Heng and Lu Xiaoxiao has been regarded as an after-dinner show by everyone, and they are watched with gusto every time.
Amid Li Heng's urging, the apprentices reluctantly looked back and continued the work at hand.
Because he was always thinking about fermented bean curd, Li Heng no longer thought about going fishing at the foot of the mountain, and simply stayed in the kitchen to supervise the apprentices to practice their cooking skills.
Time flew by and the next day came. Li Heng couldn't wait to go to the place where the tofu was stored yesterday.
Li Heng peeled off the dust-blocking cloth above and saw at a glance that a layer of white fluff had grown on the small tofu cubes.
"Brother Li Heng, look at the hair on this tofu. Is it spoiled?"
After also seeing these "hairy" tofu, Lu Xiaoxiao, standing next to Li Heng, asked, under normal circumstances, food will only become like this after it goes rancid, right?
"No, this just shows that the first step of making fermented bean curd has been successful."
Li Heng said excitedly, and then took out the moldy tofu piece by piece.
Smooth out the mycelium on the tofu so that it is tightly wrapped on the surface of the tofu.
Find a new ceramic jar, wipe the inner wall clean, put in tofu cubes, pre-cooked rice soup, and an appropriate amount of salt.
Finally, seal the jar and let the tofu inside ferment again. This process takes about a month.
"Uncle Li Heng, can we eat spoiled food?"
In fact, not only Lu Xiaoxiao, but also other apprentices who came forward to watch were a little unbelievable after reading Li Heng's operation steps.
"The growth of hair on the surface of other foods does mean that it is no longer edible, but tofu is an exception. As for the specific reasons, it is difficult to explain clearly to you."
Li Heng only remembered that the professional terms fermentation and bacteria should be related to biology, but he didn't know the specific principles.
"You don't have to worry about this problem. When time comes, the answer will be revealed."
Seeing that everyone still didn't believe it, Li Heng added.
Three days later, it was finally time to verify the results.
Li Heng took out the jar containing the moldy tofu with a feeling of anxiety.
After receiving the news, Lu Xiaoxiao and other apprentices spontaneously formed a circle around the jar before Li Heng informed them.
"Wow, are we about to start?"
"I wonder what delicious food Uncle Li Heng has made this time."
"I'm so looking forward to it, I'm already drooling."
Just looking at the jar on the ground, everyone has begun to imagine what the contents inside taste like.
"Sigh~"
Li Heng took a deep breath and opened the seal on the jar.
The people who were full of expectation immediately stretched their necks forward and moved their heads closer to the jar to get a glimpse of the scene inside.
At this moment, the mutated disciple was born, and a stench emanated from the altar and entered everyone's noses.
"Let me go, what is this thing, why does it stink?"
"Brother Li Heng, you are lying again. This doesn't look like delicious food."
Lu Xiaoxiao pinched her nose and squeezed out from the crowd, and said to Li Heng angrily.
"Uncle Li Heng, I don't believe you so much. I didn't expect you to play tricks on us."
Li Heng was criticized verbally and written by everyone before he said a word.
"It stinks. I can't stand it any longer. Let me go out and take a breath first."
Tie Xin was closest to the jar and the first to feel the attack of the stench.
After getting used to smelling various fragrances, Tie Xin almost spat out her breakfast when she was unprepared for this sudden attack, and quickly covered her mouth and stepped back.
Seeing this, other people also dispersed around, fanning their noses with their hands, hoping to dissipate the smell as soon as possible.
"Haha, who let you get so close?"
After seeing that no one dared to approach, Li Heng stepped forward to observe the condition of the tofu cubes stored in the jar.
It turned out that Li Heng had expected this to happen, so after opening the jar, he did not immediately step forward to check. Instead, he waited for the smell in the jar to dissipate before walking over.
At this time, the surface of the tofu has turned orange, transparent and shiny, and the attached white hair has long disappeared.
"This thing is called fermented bean curd. Although it smells a bit stinky, it tastes delicious. This is a great side dish."
Li Heng happily explained to everyone.
