[Comprehensive] On the possibility of food conquering the world

If you want to say what is the best dish in October, there is only butter bread, because it is the first golden level recipe, after daily practice, it has reached the golden advanced level, not to mention, bread does not need to look at the skill of the knife , you don’t need to watch the mastery of the heat, it can be said that it is the most suitable meal for making in October.However, it is impossible to move the oven to Chrysanthemum in October. Even if the system allows it, there will be no electricity in Chrysanthemum!

Count down the golden-grade dishes I have mastered, such as butter bread, Yorkshire pudding, and honey barbecue, all of which require modern kitchen utensils.Speaking of dishes that can be used in ancient kitchens, there is only one that I learned from Mr. Liulizi recently, fried potato pancakes!

What worries Shi Yue is that the fried potato cakes can only be regarded as half a dish at best. If he just takes it out of the kitchen like this, I'm afraid he will be let go immediately, let alone a test.Thinking of this, Shiyue was dejected. Sure enough, it was too easy for him to think.Fortunately, there are many dishes that can be paired with potato cakes, and fried rice is one of them.

Since it's a lesson to test yourself, try to maximize your strengths and avoid weaknesses, and don't touch dishes with knife skills. After the control of the heat is improved, October has some confidence, so let's make fried potato cakes and rice. !

……

The next day, Liu Maoxing and Lan Feihong finished their busy noon. As soon as they got out of the back kitchen, they saw October sitting in the lobby. Unlike yesterday's energetic appearance, his eyes were slightly blue and black, and he didn't know what happened yesterday. Did you sleep late?

Because Axiu was doing odd jobs in the lobby, he had welcomed this "simple" half-grown child early in the morning. If he hadn't taken into account his mysterious identity, he would have felt pity for this brat and wanted him to go to the backyard to sleep first.Unlike Axiu, Liu Maoxing and Afei noticed Shiyue's gaze and were excited.

Is it because I didn't sleep well because I was excited, or because I didn't sleep because I was practicing the dishes that I was going to serve today, October can only say that there are both.It was the first time in October that he accepted an official chef's test called "cooking skills", and he was very excited.Under this excitement, even if the dishes he wanted to serve had been honed to the golden level, he didn't stop.The result of one night plus one morning was that Mr. Kurosawa was fed up and was left in the October Hall to rest.

"You're here." Liu Maoxing stepped forward, and first glanced at the ingredients brought in front of the young man.Rice that has been frozen and hardened, four raw eggs, two fist-sized potatoes, milk in a strange container, processed and dried seaweed and basil, etc.

Ah Fei picked up the dried Basil on the table.

"Basil, very few people would use this seasoning."

"After all, the nine-story pagoda is a plant that is mostly used for medicine, and it rarely appears in dishes. However, it is a bit different from the nine-story pagoda I have seen in Hunan." Liu Maoxing took the nine-story pagoda that A Fei handed over, and observed it carefully. Fan.

Of course it’s different. Basil is also called basil. Although this kind of medicinal plant is also found all over mainland China, there are only one or two varieties. The sweet basil brought by October does not have the star anise of ordinary basil. Fennel, with a minty aroma, is a kind of basil that is best suited for stuffing, adding flour, and frying.Even in modern times, his price is a very high type of basil.

Seeing Shiyue's piercing eyes, Liu Angxing smiled, put down the seasoning in his hands, and folded his arms around his chest. "Looks like you're ready."

October stood up and nodded seriously.

Ah Fei waved to a group of people watching the theater behind him. "Help move these ingredients to the back kitchen."

Hearing the chef's order, a group of people in the back kitchen who were watching the theater moved quickly and orderly to move a small pile of ingredients piled up in front of Shi Yue to the kitchen.

Shi Yue followed the two special chefs into their working place, and as soon as he walked in, the fiery feeling that hadn't dissipated came over his face. Only then did Shi Yue remember, ah, he doesn't know how to use ancient clay stoves.

When Liu Maoxing heard the footsteps behind him stop suddenly, he turned his head suspiciously, and saw Shiyue's aggrieved appearance, his originally resolute and excited eyes almost burst into tears.

"What's going on here?"

"I, I don't know how to burn the stove." Shiyue felt that he had been called an idiot by Mr. Kurosawa all the time. Now it's over, and he really became an idiot. The oven even thought that it couldn't be used. Why did he forget that there are no gas stoves or electric stoves here? What? !

Liu Maoxing blinked, and suddenly remembered what A Fei had said to this child last night, thinking about it now, it was really not wrong, a bit silly.

"There is someone in the back kitchen who is responsible for burning the stove, so you don't have to worry."

"Ah, that's right." October was taken aback.It seems to be the same. It is impossible for a restaurant to let the chef cook while cooking when it is busy. It seems that there is a special person in charge of washing and cutting vegetables...

Yesterday, Master Liu Maoxing meant that he could lend him the entire back kitchen, which should include people.Thinking about it this way, October felt like missing out on the whole world.

"Then, let's start. Is it okay for us to watch?" Lan Feihong asked sideways when he saw that all the things were placed on the chopping board.

Shi Yue nodded and was watched by a group of people. If it was half a month ago, he would have been very nervous. Fortunately, the October Pavilion is a semi-open kitchen, which made him used to the feeling of being watched and cooking during this period of time. .

According to the method given to him by Mr. Liulizi the day before yesterday, October peeled the potatoes and put them in the steamer, and asked the cook in the back kitchen to start cooking the pot. During the time when the potatoes were steaming, October began to make them to increase the taste and milky taste. He lifted the small aluminum basin covered with plastic wrap, and the milky white milk swayed a few times under his movements.Before October approached, I smelled the milk, it was very good, and the taste did not change.

October picked up the eggs he brought, cracked them open, separated the egg yolks from the egg whites, beat the egg whites with chopsticks, put salt and sugar into the bubbles, opened another small pot, asked the cook to turn on a small fire, poured in and stirred Good egg whites, added milk, stirring while warming over low heat.

During the interval between making cream in October, Liu Maoxing approached Lan Feihong's ear and asked in a low voice.

"A Fei, I always feel that what he does looks familiar."

"Well, I also think it looks like the ice cream made by the Western chef we met when we were traveling." Lan Feihong watched Shi Yue's hand movements seriously, and nodded with a frown. "However, this kid doesn't look like a Westerner."

Liu Maoxing's eyes lit up. "If he really cooks watercress, it really surprises me. After all, the Western chef doesn't want us to see how he makes ice cream. I still haven't figured out how to achieve that taste."

While they were talking, October had already whipped the butter. Looking at the butter cubes that had stood up in the pot, he raised his hand to feel the temperature of the steamer on the other side. After confirming that at this temperature, the potatoes were already cooked. October opened the pot and set about making the inner mashed potatoes while starting to heat the oil.

"Potatoes and oil, are you going to make pancakes?"

"He added the solid milk just now into the mashed potatoes, milk, eggs and potatoes, this combination is very interesting, I will try it next time." Liu Angxing rubbed his chin and said with a smile.

In October, add a proper amount of cream to the mashed potatoes, start to sprinkle salt, and season the flour to make it firm.At the same time, I crushed the seaweed and sweet basil leaves with the school's rolling pin, and mixed them together at a ratio of 5:1.Sprinkle nori and sweet basil while kneading the potato dough.

For this meal, October put everything on the potato pancakes, but that didn't mean he would ignore the fried rice, because he didn't want to hold back the fried rice with his knives, so October chose the simplest kind of fried rice, golden fried rice.It sounds like golden fried rice, but it is actually fried rice with eggs.

While waiting for the mashed potatoes to dissipate the heat and dry their excess water, October began to make fried rice. The first step was to heat the oil, pour all the egg yolks just left into the pot, and when they were fried until they were half mature, pour in After cooking the cooled rice, when the fried rice was fried until the grains were separated, it was mixed with the half-boiled eggs. In an instant, the uncooked egg liquid was wrapped around each grain of rice, and the oil and egg yolk Under the color decoration, it becomes "golden color".

Because the potato cake is a food that focuses on the taste of the potato itself, Shiyue did not plan to put too much effort into the fried rice to destroy the taste of the potato cake, and only added salt and pepper to enhance the taste.

"It's golden fried rice..." Liu Angxing smiled, and said to Axiu beside him. "I just said that this child is destined for me. When I took the cooking test for the first time, I also made golden fried rice."

Axiu silently glanced aside.I thought to myself, I am afraid that those people with ulterior motives have investigated your life and used this trick to get close to you so as to steal the legendary kitchen utensils.

After the fried rice was ready, October began to knead the potato balls, wrap them in egg liquid, wrap them in the bread crumbs they brought, and put them in the oil pan to start frying.Because he was afraid of being distracted like the last time and frying the potatoes, he ignored the two people who were close to him.

Seeing that October has entered the final process, Liu Maoxing and Lan Feihong who were standing on the side walked towards their most curious cream, because there is not so much cream in the mashed potatoes, but there is still a lot left, the two of them poked with chopsticks A small ball stuffed into the mouth.

"Sure enough, it tastes similar to ice cream, but the texture is different, it's as soft as cotton." A Fei confirmed the conjecture of the two just now, this kid really knows a little bit of Western cooking.

Liu Maoxing was more concerned about other things. He picked up the egg shell with egg liquid on it, dipped it into his mouth, and opened his eyes wide. "Sure enough, Ah Fei, try it."

Lan Feihong licked the egg liquid on his fingers, and frowned after a while. "This egg has almost no fishy smell. It is estimated that the milk has also been treated to remove the fishy smell."

"Ask him later." Seeing that the potato pancakes in October had been fried, Liu Maoxing dragged Ah Fei back into the crowd.

Shiyue picked up the fried potato cakes and put them on the golden fried rice, and picked up the leftover cream to make a little sauce for topping.Shiyue, who picked up the small pot, blinked at the two symmetrical holes in the solid cream, slightly confused.

【Hey, did I poke two holes?How can I not remember? 】

The author has something to say:

Xiaodangjia: Is there no fishy smell?

A Fei: How many times have you licked it? I don’t know if it smells fishy or not?

Ah Xiu: MMP
