But Chu Shen's speed was too fast, and the blanched tofu was scooped up without stopping for almost half a minute.The stir-fried beef filling on the other side also hardened and became grainy with the aid of soy sauce and cooking wine.There is a slight meaty smell in the kitchen.
While adding the beef filling, the blanched tofu on the other side is ready to be put into the pot again.The previous blanching was just to get rid of the unsuitable taste, but this time it was really cooking.
Add the seasonings such as bean paste, ginger, onion, and garlic to the oil in the pot, and cook. When the bean paste is not mushy, fry the oil until it turns bright red.After pouring in clean water, bring to a boil over high heat, add tofu and various seasonings and stir fry.You must know that tofu is fragile, and ensuring the integrity of tofu is an important issue, and the boiled water can be replaced with fresh soup to ensure the taste of tofu if conditions permit.
It is quite difficult to make tofu taste good. In addition to fresh soup, the most important thing is to thicken the soup.
And Chu Shen added beef mince and garlic sprouts cut into small pieces while thickening the sauce, undoubtedly quite confident.
The mapo tofu dish has extremely high requirements for thickening. If there is too much soup, the thickening will turn into a pot of paste.If there is too little thickening, and the tofu cannot be completely wrapped, it will be quite a failure.The timing, the control of the soup, and the control of the heat are all very careful and thoughtful.
Cooking has many details that others cannot observe. Lily, who also cooks, can't understand it, and Gilgamesh can't understand it even more.
And Chu Shen's two times of thickening are also quite good, making the whole tofu look bright red under the influence of soup and thickening juice, and the fragrance wafting from the pot also makes people's index fingers move and appetite whet.
In addition to serving this plate of mapo tofu, it is also sprinkled with Sichuan pepper powder.
With Gilgamesh's personality, he would definitely not like the peppercorns that can be found everywhere, so he had to use peppercorns instead.The previous peppercorns were put together with the seasonings and became part of the soup.
Very few, but not none.After all, without peppercorns, mapo tofu might not be mapo tofu.
Chu Shen didn't deliberately arrange the plate, after all, there is no way to arrange the mapo tofu.But the bright red tofu was shaking slightly in the middle of the plate, the beef cubes that were also wrapped in the soup were scattered around, and the small pieces of garlic sprouted in the red soup, which added a kind of vitality, not only the color, fragrance and taste.
The dish of mapo tofu needs to be hemp, spicy, hot, fragrant, crisp, tender, fresh and lively.
Numbness and spiciness aside, this is the characteristic of Sichuan cuisine.Crispy, tender and fresh, all concentrated on the tofu, but it is a test of the chef's skills.And the last 'live' is on top of the green garlic sprouts.A dish is all bright red, which is a bit scary, but the garlic sprouts in it make the whole dish different.As for the crispy beef filling, it is also a perfect auxiliary to this dish.
The protagonist of this dish is only tofu, only tofu, only tofu!
Just by looking at it and smelling it, Gilgamesh felt that he had found a treasure.Although there are still unseen ingredients, unseen utensils, unseen cooking methods, and unseen dishes, this feeling of appetite will never be lacking, just like before.
"Lily, serve a big bowl of rice."
Chu Shen smiled, and was quite satisfied seeing Gilgamesh's hard-pressed expression: "This dish is a must if you eat it with rice, and we have prepared a spoon for you."
If someone like Gilgamesh were to eat chopsticks, he might go crazy, after all, he is an impatient guy.But for such a person to be overwhelmed by food, the satisfaction they get must be huge.
"Then I'll take a look..."
Gilgamesh picked out a piece of tofu, put it on the rice, and swallowed it with the rice.
He was shocked just by swallowing it in his mouth. Even with rice in it, the numbness, spiciness, and fragrance brought by the tofu were like igniting a spicy bomb on his taste buds. Intoxicated.
Numb and spicy, these are the first two feelings, and they are swallowed together with rice.It seems that with the peristalsis of the esophagus, the entire pores are heating up, and all the pores are opened in an instant.His face was flushed, and his lips were flushed. He kept panting and sticking out his tongue. Chu Shen noticed that he looked a little bad.
"Go to the water."
"Ah."
The ice water Lily handed over was drunk by Gilgamesh in an instant, and the latter couldn't even utter a word, and thousands of feelings condensed in his mouth. Although the numbness and spicyness did bring a considerable impact, but There is no doubt that this is a delicious dish, absolutely delicious.
Compared with the so-called famous chefs in Uruk before, this dish is completely comparable to the gap between gods and humans. Those famous chefs will never be able to defeat such chefs...
The exploding taste buds seemed to be eager for the next explosion, and Gilgamesh almost forgot his own etiquette, eating mapo tofu and rice in big mouthfuls.
Chu Shen smiled: "Look, this is the gap between ancient times and modern times. Therefore, those who want to travel to the ancient times should think carefully about it. If they have to give up such a beautiful food together, is it not worth the loss? It's..."
There is no doubt that this is the victory of the times.
And it was a complete victory, as if a fledgling stunned young man, with a wave of his hand, he killed all [-] masters of the eighteen sects of the rivers and lakes in an instant. Such a victory is really an easy victory, a victory random.
ps: I wrote that I was hungry, so I went to get a bowl of rice to eat...
Chapter 17 17. The famous King Arthur
"That's why I hate dinner parties," the blond-haired king in cold blue armor grumbled.
She is the king, and he tries to be a perfect king.But in such an aristocratic dinner party, Jean is really a little embarrassed, because usually, after she has adjourned with the Knights of the Round Table, the meal time is her personal enjoyment time.
The seemingly petite body seems to hide a stomach like a black hole, especially after every work, he needs a lot of food to replenish his energy.After pulling out the sword in the stone and becoming a king, he is almost not a human king, only this is very ordinary.But it is also very unusual, because the average person really cannot eat so much food.
In the present, when King Arthur is called ignorant of people's hearts, it seems that she is close to human beings, but far away.
King Arthur, who was thinking about sneaking into the kitchen at night, found a strange arch in the corner of the palace that he had never entered before after leaving the room in between... It was originally a smooth wall, but now it has become A door.
Almost subconsciously, he was about to draw out the sword in the stone in his hand, but when the King Arthur opened the door, the scenery he saw didn't seem to belong to Camelot, let alone this castle.
This is a strange world, with lifelike 'murals' on the strange transparent walls, a pair of strangely dressed men and women, and a poorly dressed man who is constantly eating.
This momentum, this room, and the scent that pervades...
King Arthur felt as if his stomach was rumbling.
"Welcome to a restaurant. I want to eat...what..." Chu Shen was speechless for a moment. Could this masculine-dressed existence be the king?
Lily on the side asked in surprise, "King Arthur?"
"Could it be that you are also the people of Camelot, but I have never heard that there is such a place in the kingdom... But since it is a place to eat, it means that you have food here, right?"
"Our place is not Camelot, you can understand it as a restaurant in another world, what do you want to eat?"
The famous King Arthur didn't put on airs very much. Her rule over the people was completely different from Gilgamesh's. She was a very benevolent king. Although she lacked in governing the country, she was not bad at all in treating people .After hearing that this is not Camelot, she seemed to relax a bit. Since it is not Camelot, there is no need to be a perfect king.
"I can't read your text here... However, I want to eat some food with sufficient portions."
"The portion is big, isn't it? Let me see."
Lily served King Arthur a glass of ice water. Although she didn't know what the season was behind the door, there was a restaurant where it was still at the end of July and the temperature was quite high.
Gilgamesh was still enjoying mapo tofu and rice, and the joy that was gradually overflowing in his heart made him have no time to deal with this so-called King Arthur.
"Thank you." The strange existence of ice water also made King Arthur doubtful. She looked around: "Excuse me, this is...the so-called different world..."
Lily smiled slightly: "Strictly speaking, this is a parallel world to the world you live in, and the time is in the future."
"What did you say, the future?" King Arthur was taken aback, his green pupils were slightly shaken: "The future...then please tell me, what will happen to Britain in the future?"
"You mean after you?"
King Arthur froze for a moment, then understood that she had received the prophecy.After being led by himself, Britain will inevitably decline and perish. Could it be said that Britain today has become history?She showed a bitter expression: "Please tell me."
"Knowing the future is not a good thing. After all, strictly speaking, our place is not the world you are in. Everything can be changed. If you follow the trend because you know the future, it may make the future worse .”
Lily has always held the view of not changing the direction of the world where the characters live, so it is normal for her to say such things.
"What..." King Arthur was a little dazed. After thinking for a while, he seemed to understand Lily's meaning: "Tell me, in fact, the prophecy I have seen also contains information about the future."
Lily smiled: "The British Isles are a bit complicated today. There are England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland. They have quite complicated stories. But what you can know is that the ancient British kingdom where you belonged, King Arthur, was strictly speaking not destroyed. , although there were some dark times during the period, the history is still well preserved. After all, Britain had a very prosperous era in which the sun never set a few centuries ago."
"The sun never sets?"
"Well, in the [-]th century, Britain defeated Spain, which was invincible at sea. It became a maritime hegemony. The colonies owned by Britain at that time could shine on its territory no matter when the sun rose. That's why the sun was born. Do not lose this title."
"colony…"
The trouble with talking about the future with people from the past is that every noun needs to be explained carefully, but after the explanation is clear, this King Arthur seems to be relieved.
"Dynasty changes, state ownership rises and falls, this is a normal thing. Well, let's eat. Although you are King Arthur, I can only try to provide the best food here."
Chu Shen felt a little helpless when he saw King Arthur's appearance. Although he dressed and behaved very masculine, he was actually a woman, right?And looking at this era, it seems that it is not the King Arthur of the Holy Grail War era, but the King Arthur who is still ruling Camelot... That tragic life, Chu Shen is a little bit blind. Regret for an unhappy life.And more importantly, with such a charismatic king, I am afraid that everyone will love her even more...
"Why do you feel that the popularity of the people here is getting higher and higher? What if the nerd saw this?" Chu Shen muttered.
Lily on the side smiled wryly: "If the otaku sees it, the threshold of your restaurant will be trampled down. More importantly, how do you explain such two special existences?"
"cosplay."
"Forget it, when the time comes, will there be more people coming to your restaurant to eat or to watch people? And if these two are surrounded, maybe it will cause some big problems."
"I'm just making a hypothesis."
To be honest, Chu Shen really wanted to take a photo of the two of them, and then print it on the wall, and set up a cos restaurant or something. It would be very promising.After all, is there anyone more real than these two?
"Cook well, you!"
Section 18 18. Chili Fried Pork
There were two dishes placed in front of King Arthur, one bowl was a combination of long strips of green vegetables and meat.The other bowl is a strange mix of black and white vegetables.
King Arthur had never seen or heard of these two dishes, let alone the dishes, and she didn't even understand what the plates were made of.What's even more bizarre is, are these two sticks the tableware for eating in the future?Although it is safer to use than a knife and fork, how can you eat it?
Looking at a big bowl of rice, King Arthur looked a little embarrassed.
Chu Shen just glanced at it, and seemed to understand the source of King Arthur's uneasiness.Anyway, guests from other worlds who come here should also get used to the miraculous tableware of chopsticks. After all, Chu Shen still has very little mastery of meals without chopsticks, and it is impossible to make everything perfect.
The dish placed in front of King Arthur is called chili fried pork, and on the other side is a fairly simple preserved egg mixed with tofu.These two dishes of stir-fried pork with chili are very good with rice, and the preserved egg is mixed with tofu. Chu Shen directly used some of the remaining ingredients.Recently, there have been more inexplicable guests, and he has to use raw materials to cook dishes. If some raw materials are left, it will be very troublesome. The dishes made with fresh ingredients are the best. This is an eternal truth.
Lily taught King Arthur how to use chopsticks, but Gilgamesh looked at King Arthur. Before he knew it, the king had finished eating mapo tofu and rice. This eating speed can be said to be Aristocratic etiquette has definitely reached the point.
"King Arthur, is he also the king of a certain country?"
"I am the King of Camelot."
"Camelo, I've never heard of it. I am the king of Uruk."
"I haven't heard of it either." King Arthur and the King of Heroes, who were trying to pick up vegetables, started the meeting in advance. These two... really didn't give each other a little face.But the two of them are not particularly unhappy here, and they both understand that this restaurant is a very interesting location.
After working hard for a long time, King Arthur finally picked up the sliced green pepper with great difficulty, along with the sliced pork.
Chili and meat are the main ingredients of this dish.And now, the taste of the oily looking pork and the shiny green peppers really makes King Arthur tremble, it's so delicious...
Pata—with a shake of the hand, the dish that was picked up with great difficulty fell on the plate.
King Arthur was quite helpless, so he had to bring the rice bowl over, and used the method Lily taught to put part of the chili fried meat in the rice bowl, so she simply stopped trying to pick it up.Just eat it up like this.
As a side dish, stir-fried pork with chili is a good dish. This dish is a house-cooked dish of Hunan cuisine in the eight major cuisines. Among them, green peppers need to be screw peppers, that is, green peppers that look wrinkled and have a long body. These green peppers look old, but when stir-fried they are tender and juicy without being too spicy.
With King Arthur's character, Britain must not be able to eat spicy food in the past. After all, even now, these countries are not very good at spicy food. If they really follow the standards of Hunan cuisine, King Arthur will probably cry.
And pork needs to be fat and thin on each slice, so that it won't look too greasy, and at the same time, it can make the lean meat not taste so bad.This dish needs to be stir-fried over high heat, just to highlight the fastness, otherwise the meat will be easily aged. This is a home-cooked dish, and it is also a very simple meal.
With just the oil used for fried pork with chili, it is not a problem to eat three bowls of rice.
