Chef of the future

Chapter 96 Braised Chicken and Rice

On this planet, who has the most confidence in Peng Yibei.

In addition to the few insiders of the Zou family, I am afraid that they are the students of the initial training class.

When it comes to cooking, they are always short of strength and foundation.

But they were brainwashed by Peng Yibei's various "cultural education" when they had the most zero foundation.

Now I am quite convinced of the food culture self-confidence constructed by Peng Yibei.

Eating is not only a kind of physical satisfaction, but also an expression of a rich inner world.

Eating is an idea, a culture, a state, and even a philosophy.

Eating is even a kind of social significance, a kind of cultural inheritance, and a kind of national belief.

May I ask, is your family's beliefs, inheritance, and ideological realm written in a book thick?

Not thick!This is just the beginning!

Peng Yibei cleared his throat.

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn back.

That's right, no matter how thick the recipe is, you have to make braised chicken and rice first.

There is nothing wrong with making the rice.

Chicken preparation is also fairly simple.

Soak a few dried shiitake mushrooms in water first.

Then chop the chicken.

Looking at the whole chicken in front of him, Pingle sharpened his knife and started to do it, with a little cheering particle like "Yada" in his mouth.

Meng Ru held a knife, and his posture was exactly the same as that of the talented male partner in "Youth Chef".

Then a knife went down, and the chicken skin was broken.

Four old foreign disciples: ...

For newcomers:  ………

"You're going to ruin my weekly drama."

"It's okay, my character will [disappear] in the next episode, and I won't be there for the next three consecutive episodes."

Peng Yibei re-demonstrated how to cut chicken nuggets.

Mainly remember a few joints and big bones.

In fact...the bones of chickens are not much bigger.It takes little effort for a girl, but for a boy to face a chicken, violence is enough to solve the problem.

Peng Yibei signaled Meng Ruo to look at Pingle.

Pingle has always belonged to the unrestrained and unrestrained style of cooking.When he first came here, the fineness of cutting potatoes into codes was quite misleading.

Afterwards...everyone never saw him fine again.

"Actually, you can choose tools like us. The teacher doesn't mind this." Several girls went to the side of the food processor with the chicken in their hands.

The cutting problem is solved with high technology.

Meng Ruo thought about it, and chose between cutting the chicken into mud or a mess, and losing a little face.Resolutely followed the girls to find the cooking machine.

This choice was right, he saw Chef Peng's encouraging smile.

Well, small things like cutting chicken nuggets can be practiced slowly in the future. Now let’s finish the production with perfect chicken nuggets.

"Sister Yuan, do you also use machines?"

"Yeah, the last time I flew the kitchen knife out, I actually... still had a bit of a psychological shadow." Even with a robot protecting me, I was still a little scared.

Meng Ru: …………

Suddenly, I felt that it was good to cut only the skin of the chicken with a knife.

A group of people cut the chicken pieces flawlessly with food processors, and Pingle over there cut a few pieces... very artistic.

After cutting the chicken pieces, it's time to cut the toppings.

Flammulina velutipes do not need to be cut, shredded green peppers, sliced ​​ginger, and sliced ​​small shiitake mushrooms that have just soaked softly continue to be thrown back into the water for soaking.

Take a medium casserole, add a little oil and two spoons of sugar to fry the sugar color, and pour the cut chicken pieces into it.

After stirring a few times with a shovel, add cooking wine, sliced ​​ginger, and a little dried chili.

Add a tablespoon of light soy sauce and stir well.

After letting all the pieces coat in the brown sauce.

Soak the shiitake mushrooms just now, and put them in with water and shiitake mushrooms.

Sprinkle with white pepper and salt.

Add a little more water to just cover the chicken pieces.

Cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes on medium-low heat.

After 20 minutes, put the green peppers down and turn them over, then add the enoki mushrooms.

Cover and cook for 1 minute.

"Green peppers and enoki mushrooms are not necessary. You can choose other vegetables that you like, and any vegetables that are not strong in taste are fine." For example, green vegetables are also suitable.

I have to say that the aroma of the braised chicken is too strong.

The casserole is like adding BUFF, allowing the aroma of chicken and soy sauce to explode.

Not only the aroma, but also the tenderness of the chicken reached the extreme during the simmering process.

Guarantee that the moment you eat it, your tongue can pick out all the bones.

Of course, the role of ingredients is also indispensable, especially the little sugar color used to set off the salty taste and the all-purpose flavor-enhancing small paired with shiitake mushrooms.

"Wow!" Several people tried to eat the yellow braised chicken made by Peng Yibei, all of them could only exclaim in admiration and were reluctant to speak.

It was so delicious.

There are a lot of delicious chicken dishes, and Peng Yibei has cooked many kinds before. As the earliest students, many of them had the honor to taste them.

But the taste of this yellow braised chicken, how to say...

Well, let's not talk about it, let's eat two more pieces first.

"Did you forget something?" Peng Yibei knocked on the rice next to him.

Everyone came back to their senses immediately.

This dish seems to be called braised chicken and rice?

It has to be eaten with rice!

A mouthful of braised chicken and a mouthful of rice.

Mmm, delicious!

There are even better ones!

Misty Moon poured a spoonful of soup on the rice and took a bite.

The door to a new world opened.

Grab the sauce contest starts now.

"Give me some more."

"I still have half of the rice unmixed!"

"After bibimbap, eat it with chicken."

"I think the side dishes are the best..."

"Forehead……"

The five of them watched as Peng Yibei took away the last half of the pot of braised chicken.

Then pour a small bowl of rice directly into the remaining yellow stewed chicken, mix and eat.

Five people:……

Is this the correct way to eat it? !

"There is no authentic way of eating. You can eat it separately, with you, or whatever you like. After all, as long as you feel delicious, it is the greatest reward for food."

Do you know Hamburg?Most people eat it by holding it in their hands and biting it.

But some people eat hamburgers with western food knives.

Some people go down through the burger with a fork, and then lift it up to eat like a skewer.

What you eat is food, and how you eat it is fun.

If you think this way of eating is better, then eat it that way.

"What are you doing in a daze? It's your turn." Peng Yibei encouraged the five students, didn't they eat enough just now?

Later, I can cook and eat by myself. I can eat whatever I want.

Well, this line, no matter how you look at it, it seems that you are not optimistic about them.

A few of them are also old students, and acquaintances are inevitably a little skinny.

"Teacher, I'm starting to miss your unselfish personality from before."

"I'm starting to miss your carefulness back then... Let's do it again, your sugar is already burnt."

"ah!"

"Sugar is easy to burn, remember to move quickly...not so fast. Forget it, let's continue."

There are still many accidents at the scene.

Especially after the chicken nuggets are put into the pan, the crackling oil explodes.

It directly led to "operational errors" by several people.

Cooking oil explosion has always been a high-risk failure point.

If you are afraid of this, you can do something, such as arming yourself in place.

For example, serve the dish when the oil temperature is lower.

For example, put less oil, more vegetables and so on.

Using these measures will bring some additional problems, such as loss of taste and so on.

And sometimes no matter how well armed they are.

That crackling sound is enough to cause people to make mistakes, especially... people in this world.

The person retreated two meters away before realizing that he had activated the shield.

Going back in a hurry, it’s very good, I forgot the steps, and when my hands shook, I made an operation error.

Stumbling and watching, everyone finally entered the stage of stuffy cooking.

Set an alarm for 20 minutes

The students breathed a sigh of relief.

Peng Yibei could finally continue reading his thick books.

Yuan Yuan and the other girls surrounded Mengru to inquire about the production crew and gossip about the entertainment industry.

So Pingle moved to Peng Yibei's side without much interest.

"Teacher, what are you picking? These dishes are all very good."

"What I want to prepare is a birthday banquet for an elderly man."

"Um...and then?"

It is necessary for the elderly to be able to eat and digest, but also to satisfy other guests, and it must also match the meaning of auspiciousness.

You have to think more about it.

And a table of banquets, eighteen dishes.

Cold dishes, hot stir-fries, soups, desserts, snacks, fruits, everything is complete.

By the way, a bowl of longevity noodles is a must for birthday banquets.

This is not just a matter of making a lot of dishes and stuffing the altar.

There are necessary modifications.

For example, birthday peaches.This is an unchanging snack for birthday banquets.

But in this world... peaches don't mean longevity.

Peaches is not the look of that pink butt either.

If the longevity peach here is forced to be translated, it should be longevity lychee.

That kind of fruit has a white shell, with yellow spots on the shell, and the flesh is also white. It tastes infinitely close to lychee, so it was translated so named.

This fruit has the meaning of longevity in ancient times because of the story of an old miracle doctor similar to Hua Tuo.

To use the current scientific explanation: rich in multivitamins, delicious and nutritious, eating is good for the body.

Well, let’s do as the Romans do.

The "lychee" here is also quite cute.

Just so final decision.

Peng Yibei immediately turned to the last page, ticked a certain option, and confirmed the name.

Pingle leaned over curiously to see the name of the final menu on the last page.

Pingle:? !

"Teacher, are you sure this is the name of the menu and not... the birthday speech you prepared?"

Pingle's words aroused the curiosity of others, they stopped gossiping for a while, and came over together.

Curious how the birthday words got mixed up with the menu.

Eight stars send blessings

good luck

full house

Phlox double star

once a Thief

Longevity

family reunion

gold everywhere

full of money

Subi nanshan

Thousands of descendants

Evergreen

Equal Eyebrows and Longevity

Ruiguochengxiang

There are also a lot of nouns crowded there.

Recite it and read it out, you are the most beautiful grandson at the birthday party.

These are menus? !

"Of course, since it's a birthday and wedding banquet, how can the name of the dish be less pleasant?"

He also specifically removed the title of longevity and longevity.

Ge Lao is already 90 years old, full of energy and healthy.

Wishing someone a long life, maybe it's a curse.

"Then what kind of dish is this?" Yuan Yuan casually pointed to a name.

full of money

The name is easy to understand, and it looks expensive.

"Preserved abalone with buckled goose palm"

Peng Yibei called out the photos he took when he was trying to make it.

Both goose feet and abalone are wrapped in rich and oily sauce, which looks soft and attractive.

The point is that goose palms are arranged in an orderly manner around the plate to form a flower.Palms facing inward.

The round abalone meat is piled in the middle of the palm.

It is also carved with patterns of ancient copper coins.

A veritable palm full of money.

"Wow." The five students praised in unison.I am amazed by this ingenuity and creativity.

This time I really learned a lot.

All they knew at the beginning was that dishes could be cooked well.

Later, the teacher said that it is good and can be done well.

Only now do I know that the dishes can still taste good.

Although the previous dumplings and moon cakes meant auspiciousness, they were somewhat abstract. After all, they were festive meanings gathered by folk customs over the years.

This one is more straightforward and accurate, it is the feeling specially created for the celebration.

This is the "meaning" in the color, fragrance, shape and meaning that the teacher first said.

A light wave of "want to eat" was emitted towards the teacher.

Peng Yibei did not raise his head, and continued to think.

"It would be great if Director Zou was here." Pingle, implying failure, sighed.Got nods from other friends.

If there are cheating people, they can also drink some soup.

"What's the relationship with Zou Dong?" Meng was out of the situation.

I got quite complex expressions from the four friends.

"I'll keep it secret, I'll keep it absolutely. I'm from the entertainment industry. I can't get along if I don't keep my mouth shut."

"What are you guys discussing?" Peng Yibei looked up at the sneaky people behind him.

"Teacher, we are still curious about what this Guishou Yannian is." Pan Lili pointed to a name. "There's an X here, why? Can't it be done?"

Poor diversion.

But Peng Yibei still answered.

"It's stewed longevity turtle with Cordyceps sinensis and Dendrobium."

Five: ?

"I can't find the material." He also regretted it.

The ingredients here are all the price of cabbage, and I still want to eat some precious ones casually.

Unexpectedly, there are protected animals that cannot be eaten in this world. (Gui: The number is small, I'm really sorry for you.)

Herbal supplements with similar effects are too strong to be used in dishes.

Pity.

The five looked at each other.

Can't find the ingredients, you even think about the menu and name?

What do you think?

I want a dish with meat and vegetables. It tastes hot, sour, salty and sweet.

OK, another dish is done.

I want a dish that is soft, waxy, hard, and crispy, so I can find the ingredients and make it.

OK, the ingredients are found, and the dish is ready.

"Teacher, what a miraculous party A lives in your head?"

"The point is your hand, is it the omnipotent Party B?"

"You guys don't care about your yellow braised chicken?" It's 20 minutes.

The five hurried back to the stove.

The moment they returned to the stove, Yuanyuan's alarm clock rang.

The five breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Although the teacher has said a long time ago, it doesn't matter if it takes a while.

But... you are a teacher!

The scumbag is still honestly pinching the stopwatch and forgetting.

The action of adding side dishes at the end, hit the base safely and no one overturned.

Smelling the familiar fragrance, everyone began to taste their own works after the teacher nodded!

The face is full of familiar surprise and satisfaction.

Especially Meng Ru, the surprise on his face was completely uncontrollable.

People in their 20s jump up and down like a child, not for their own future.

Instead, I am simply happy to finish a dish for myself, a dish that looks a bit complicated!

Cook your own dishes!

Several other veteran students sympathetically did not remind him that the work completed in class under the supervision of the teacher is completely different from going back to do it by himself.

They are all people who were full of confidence in class and were repeatedly slapped in the face when they went back.

Sometimes you don't even have to go back.

As soon as the teacher said to do it a second time, they overturned.

But although it can't be said to be completely learned, I did it myself anyway.

Taste your own dishes.

Always extra sweet.

This time, five people started the process of eating braised chicken and rice in a fancy way.

It will be eaten with dipping, mixed and eaten for a while, and combined and matched for a while.

They also exchanged each other's delicacies, blowing rainbow farts.

"There is more time, do it again, this time I will not remind. Old rules, there are rewards."

"Teacher! We want to eat the dishes on the birthday banquet!" Meng Rushua raised his hand, he had been curious about these dishes with nice names for a long time.

The teacher didn't even say whose birthday party he was going to attend.

Basically, there is no chance to find a relationship to rub a meal.

Then have a taste here.

The eyes of the other students lit up and they nodded.

"Okay, you choose."

Peng Yibei showed the final menu and asked them to choose by themselves.

Look at this series of auspicious names.I can't think of what kind of food he is at all.

In the end, everyone unanimously decided to choose the auspicious words they like the most.

"Good luck? I thought you guys would choose money full of palms or something."

Several people laughed awkwardly, and they really wanted to choose.

But it doesn't look vulgar to choose money directly.

Good fortune is very good. With luck, are you afraid that you will not have money?

"Teacher, what is the good fortune?"

"Scented cherry meat."

Peng Yibei took out a brand new seasoning that had never been taken out before.

"It's called red yeast rice."

A little red yeast rice, about two spoonfuls, is crushed with a rolling pin.

Chopped shallots, sliced ​​ginger

The accessories are ready.

After the pot is heated until the dripping water boils instantly, turn to medium heat.

A good piece of pork belly, skin side down.

Just burn it dry.

Burn until the surface of the pork skin turns golden brown.

Add water, add onion and ginger, add cooking wine, start cooking, and cook the meat thoroughly.

"Look, it's considered fully cooked." A chopstick was inserted straight into the pork with ease.

Take out the pork and cut into bite-sized cubes.

"You don't need to put any oil, return the pork directly to the wok, and stir-fry until the surface is slightly charred."

The moment when the meat is slightly charred is usually the time when the aroma is attractive.

It is different from the fragrance after the finished product.

At this moment, the original, pure, meaty aroma makes people... want to risk eating it.

"Pour in boiling water, remember that it was cold water just now, now you need boiling water, then pour in the red yeast rice noodles."

Add a spoonful of light soy sauce, a spoonful of salt, sliced ​​scallions and ginger, cover and simmer for 1 hour on low heat.

"After an hour, take out the onion and ginger, add six pieces of rock sugar and eight dried hawthorns, and continue to cover for another 30 minutes."

The meat in the pot at this moment has begun to show a completely different color from the previous braised meat.

Gorgeous cherry red, eye-catching, like a mature and hot girl, and like the unforgettable color of first love.

The red with a bit of pink is like the most beautiful lipstick number.

want to buy.

"You guys don't want rewards anymore?" Peng Yibei looked at the second-brush braised chicken.

"what!"

"Oh!"

"What about this?"

"Can it still be rescued?"

"Reduce the burnt part?"

"Let's start over."

Peng Yibei is chasing cherry meat here.

A few of them are brushing second and third.

The yellow stewed chicken that was clearly finished just now was overturned and they themselves wondered if it was the fault of the pot.

In the end, they expressed regret...

It must be the teacher's fault.

If it wasn't for the teacher opening the lid from time to time, the aroma of cherry meat would come out.They don't fail so miserably.

Peng Yibei: ... I only opened the lid twice.

Facing the last mess, the whole army was wiped out.

"Then only next time..."

"Teacher, don't do it next time, let us try it this time, you don't have a fixed class time now, we don't know next time... next time you will do something else to tempt us! We will Take one bite, just one bite."

"How about this, let's call Director Zou? Okay?"

"That's right, that's right, Mr. Zou eats a plate, and we take a bite."

Meng Ru looked at his classmates in disbelief, and then at his teacher.

"Teacher, you and Director Zou?!" Then Meng Ru didn't know what he remembered, and showed a dazed expression!

Then she swore to secrecy and put her hand on her lips.

"That's not the case. Why are you still talking about this? Didn't you explain it last time?"

Several other people have meaningful expressions.

"Teacher, none of us are younger than you. To put it bluntly... there is no one who has more emotional experience than you."

"I can tell."

"And you don't realize it."

"It's not unconscious, it's because I'm embarrassed to admit it."

Peng Yibei didn't know if he blushed or not.

But it is still possible to deny your emotional problems for a period of time.

"Eat what you want, and don't emphasize what you have or what you don't have in the future."

"Yeah!" The relationship problem was instantly forgotten, and five pairs of chopsticks were inserted into the beautiful cherry flesh.

Pick up a chopstick and put it in your mouth.

As soon as you take a sip, the taste is so refreshing that it tastes delicious like never before!

While the teacher is not paying attention, steal another piece!

After eating everything, Peng Yibei confiscated it.For the sake of it, they will talk about Zou Mu again, saying...is it that obvious?

"Huh? Just now you said that you have more emotional experience than me? Lily too? Not necessarily." Pan Lili is just a little younger than Peng Yibei.

Pan Lili grabbed Pingle's arm next to her.

The two smirked at Peng Yibei with happy faces.

"But now I have a partner."

Teacher, you are still single.
