Chen Chunjin was a little apologetic and said with a hint of hope: "My wife's morning sickness was particularly severe. She even went to the hospital for infusion before. She has lost her appetite these days and now she has a hard time craving for food. I just went for a run around the county. , all shops are closed!”
"I really had no choice. I heard that Fu Yu was back, so I wanted to come over and ask, Fu Yu, if you could help make a pizza."
After hearing this, Fu Yu was stunned.
Pizza?
This stuff is sold ready-made in supermarkets, as well as semi-processed products.
He also saw it when he was shopping today, but Liu Yuqing wanted to make durian sandwiches tomorrow morning, so he only bought slices of bread.
Before meeting Liu Yuqing, Fu Yu had never eaten this food, but he did eat it once when they were dating.
According to Fu Yu, it is actually a fermented round pancake with sauce, meat, vegetables, and fruits sprinkled on it, and then baked twice.
Oh, by the way, there is also a thick layer of cheese sprinkled on top so that it will not stringy when eaten while hot.
For fast food like this, it is actually very convenient to order at the store, and the cooking process is simple and fast.
But if you use raw materials to make it at home, it will be somewhat troublesome.
Not only do you have to bake the bread, but you also have to prepare the sauce. The entire process will take less than an hour and will definitely not be completed.
It's past eight o'clock now, and by the time the baking is finished, it will probably be close to nine-thirty.
It would take Chen Chunjin two hours at the fastest to take it home for his wife to eat.
Fu Yu took advantage of Chen Chunjin's conversation with his parents to quickly browse through the classic recipes.
There are still many steps to baking authentic pizza, and the requirements for controlling the temperature of the oven and the ratio of sauces are very strict.
Fu Yu memorized the specific cooking steps while recalling the existing seasonings at home, which ones were missing and which ones could be replaced.
After some evaluation in his mind, Fu Yu looked at Chen Chunjin and said, "Uncle Chen, I can help bake the pizza, but it takes a long time to make it. The fastest is two hours."
"Ah!" Chen Chunjin became a little anxious when he heard this: "How long does it take? I went out at around six o'clock and ran around the county until now. If I wait for more than two hours, my wife won't want to have eaten."
Pregnant women’s eating habits will also change due to their physical condition.
I often have a sudden desire to eat something, and the idea of eating is extremely strong at that time, but after this period of time, I will immediately lose my appetite.
Fu Ma and Aunt Fu are both people who have given birth to children, so they can understand this situation particularly well.
Fu Ma asked: "Isn't there any easier way to make this pizza?"
When baking pizza, the most time-consuming part is making the dough. If you want to make it faster, you have to find a way from this aspect.
Fu Yu was a little hesitant. Unless the dough was ready-made, there was no way to save a single step from kneading to baking, and it was impossible to shorten the time.
When he was in a dilemma, Liu Yuqing thought of something and said aloud: "My sister used to make a simple version of pizza for me. There was no bread at home at that time. She cut the steamed buns into pieces and wrapped them in egg liquid and fried them. It was pretty good. It’s delicious, as long as there are enough ingredients, it tastes no less than normal pizza dough.”
When Fu Yu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up!
This method is great!
The steamed buns are cut into small pieces and coated with egg liquid. When fried, they can naturally be shaped into pancakes, with ingredients sprinkled on top and a thick layer of cheese so that all the ingredients can stick together.
You might as well give it a try.
Fu Yu went to the kitchen and carefully rummaged through the available ingredients.
I have a small half bottle left over from the canned corn that I will use at night. There are no mushrooms in the mushrooms, only white jade mushrooms, which can be used.
Carrots are present, green and red peppers are present, nuts are not hazelnuts, but almonds are present, walnuts are not, and pistachios and pine nuts are present.
Both ketchup and salad dressing are available, but there is no cheese, but fortunately there is cheese.
Thanks to Liu Yuqing's plan to make grilled durian and cheese prawns, they bought large bags of cheese and there was still a lot left to use.
As for the steamed buns, there are quite a few in the refrigerator at home. Fu’s mother was worried that there would be not enough rice to eat due to the large number of people at home, so she specially stocked them. Although they have been stored for a day, it does not affect their use.
Fu Yu estimated the specific cooking operation in his mind and determined that there was no problem. Then he said to Chen Chunjin: "Uncle Chen, it's definitely too late to make pizza dough now, but according to what Xiaoqing just said, I can give it a try. , if we hurry up, it will take about forty minutes, which should be about the same."
When Chen Chunjin heard this, he quickly said happily: "That's great, Fu Yu, I'll trouble you!"
Before Fu Yu could say anything, Fu's father had already greeted him warmly: "Friends are doing each other a favor. Why are you being so polite? Come on, Xiao Chen, go sit in the living room. You just ran around, and you are so polite." Didn’t you have time to take a break and catch your breath?”
Chen Chunjin smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, it's nothing to worry about, as long as my wife can eat!"
Fu's mother also advised: "Don't worry, my Xiaoyu said he can do it, then it's no problem. We can't help here, and standing still is in the way. Xiao Chen, come to the living room to eat fruit, Xiao Qing is here They came here last time to buy us strawberries and cherries! By the way, I haven’t introduced you yet, this is my son’s girlfriend, Xiaoqing.”
Chen Chunjin hurriedly greeted Liu Yuqing.
He heard yesterday that Fu Yu brought his girlfriend home this time, and her girlfriend was very beautiful.
Now when I look at him in person, he is really good-looking, and he looks very temperamental. He is just different from the people in his county.
Chen Chunjin quickly praised enthusiastically: "Fu Yu has really good taste. Look at this girlfriend, how beautiful she is!"
When Father Fu and Mother Fu heard this, they were immediately elated and greeted Chen Chunjin warmly to the living room.
Liu Yuqing said hello but did not follow him, but stayed in the kitchen to watch Fu Yu cook.
"Can you help me?" Liu Yuqing stretched her head and glanced at the ingredients on the kitchen table.
Fu Yu turned his head and smiled slightly: "No, you have already helped a lot. Now you just need to stand by and accompany me."
Liu Yuqing knew that Fu Yu was good at cooking, so she didn't bother to move forward. She just stood in a place out of the way, poking her head around to watch Fu Yu making pizza!
Fu Yu broke the remaining steamed buns into small pieces with his hands and put them in a bowl for later use.
Crack three eggs into the steamed buns, then stir evenly with a whisk until the eggs and steamed buns are fully integrated.
Brush the pan with a layer of oil, pour the evenly mixed steamed buns into the pan, flatten and compress with a spoon, and then shape into a round cake.
This step is very critical. The final shaping effect of the dough and the texture after frying mainly depend on the size and thickness of the dough.
Also note that it is thin in the middle and thick at the edges so that the pizza has edges.
While the pancakes were being fried, Fu Yu split the red sausage in half and then cut it into moon-shaped slices. The slices were slightly thicker so that the baked texture would be better.
Add water to the wok and bring to a boil over high heat. Add a spoonful of salt and a few drops of vegetable oil. Put the corn kernels into the pot and cook for a while. Take them out. At the same time, put the peeled prawns into the pot and cook for ten seconds and take them out. Come.
When Fu Yu cooks, his gestures are very fast.
Liu Yuqing often only sees a blur in front of her eyes, and Fu Yu has already completed the fishing operation.
Today, Fu Yu showed off Liu Yuqing's unique skills.
Put the red and green peppers in the palm of your left hand, hold the kitchen knife in your right hand, and cut the peppers into rings directly with your hand.
Swish, swish, swish!
After a few cuts, the colored pepper slices landed on the cutting board, connected head to tail, uniform in thickness, red and green in color, swirling in the air and falling quickly.
This is not the same as cooking in your own kitchen. If you record a live video, it can be used as a cooking demonstration for others to observe and appreciate.
Liu Yuqing stood very close. It was not the first time she watched Fu Yu cook, nor was it the first time she saw Fu Yu cooking in home clothes other than chef clothes.
But at this time, Fu Yu was standing in his kitchen, holding an extremely professional posture, cutting and slicing with meticulous skill, and his habitual movements of flipping the dough with a spoon were neat and bright. He was obviously just spreading a pizza, but he was still able to do it. Show a free and easy aura.
Liu Yuqing herself didn't realize it, and unconsciously, she was a little startled.
At that moment, I suddenly felt that the image of the chef who was wearing a chef's uniform and holding a spoon with his head lowered in his heart suddenly changed from the male god Yao Shi to Fu Yu.
Every gesture and gesture is filled with images of Fu Yu's movements.
It seems that it has been a long time since I thought of watching Yao Shi's cooking videos.
Even if I occasionally see Yao Shi in the store, I won't be as excited as when I saw him in person for the first time.
Her attention had long been focused on Fu Yu.
Whenever there was someone troublesome around Fu Yu, she couldn't help but think about him, and all she could think about was this person.
Fu Yu's attention at this time was entirely focused on making pizza sauce.
Because it was a last-minute cooking decision, the ingredients were not complete. He could only try to make the taste as close as possible. There was no guarantee that the taste would be perfect.
There is nothing we can do about this.
There were originally two tomatoes left at home, but when cooking in the evening, Fu Yu had nothing to do and nibbled one, and now only one is left.
He had to peel the only tomato and cut it into fine pieces.
There is a small dish of minced garlic left over from cooking, so you can use it directly.
Fu Yu started to fry the minced garlic, then added the minced onions, stir-fried for a while, and then added the minced tomatoes.
Stir fry while pressing down with the back of a spatula to make the tomatoes and onions more integrated and more sticky.
After the tomatoes are soft and rotten, add tomato sauce and stir-fry evenly.
Fortunately, Fu Yu bought this bag of tomato sauce from the supermarket when he came back from the Chinese New Year. He wanted to make some pasta for his parents to try.
Ever since he became a chef, Fu Yu would try his best to cook for his parents every time he went home.
Various special dishes in the store and private dishes made by master Liu Yunong.
His family's living conditions were average. Fu's father and Fu's mother had lived frugally all their lives. Apart from attending weddings and funerals, they had rarely been to restaurants for dinner.
The old couple always complains that the food outside is too expensive and not delicious, but in fact they just feel sorry for money and are reluctant to spend it.
Fu Yu now knows how to cook various classic special dishes, and always wants to broaden his parents' horizons and try all kinds of delicious dishes.
But in fact, many of the dishes made by Fu Yu are not used to the food of Fu's father and Fu's mother.
It's like the pasta he specially made during the Chinese New Year.
After the second elder tasted it, he kept saying that it was not as good as the scallion oil noodles made the day before.
Holding the half bag of ketchup left, Fu Yu couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.
Fu Ma was used to being frugal and thrifty. She didn't use this tomato sauce at all when cooking, but seeing that half the bag was left, she couldn't bear to throw it away.
If it hadn't been for coming back this time, this thing would probably have been left there until it broke.
Fu Yu shook his head and added an appropriate amount of salt and sugar to the pot.
There were no herbs or pizza grass at home, but the stew ingredients package that Fu Ma bought in the supermarket contained allspice.
Fu Yu directly cut open the gauze wrapping the stewed meat ingredients, picked out the Baicao incense and added it to the pot.
When the whole pot of sauce becomes thick and has no soup, the pizza sauce is finished.
This means that Fu Yu's family has two natural gas stoves, otherwise they would be really busy cooking sauce and making bread.
The dough in the pot was fried just right, and Fu Yu quickly spread the pizza sauce on it.
Apply a layer of pizza sauce, sprinkle a layer of cheese, and spread all the toppings on top one by one in a circular motion.
With this amount of ingredients, I can probably make two more pizzas at any pizza shop outside.
Anyway, there is still a lot of cheese left in the bag.
Fu Yu thought that he had cut corners on the seasoning of his pizza, so he simply sprinkled all the remaining cheese on it.
The taste of cheese is still very good, so there should be no problem in using its taste to cover up the lack of taste.
In fact, although the taste of Fu Yu's pizza is not perfect, it is still very good for family dining.
It's just that Chen Chunjin said that his wife was picky when she was pregnant, and Fu Yu was worried that her wife would be sensitive to taste and find something wrong with her later.
In order to increase the cooking speed and time, Fu Yu simply did not bake it in the oven, but directly completed the final cooking step of the pizza by stewing it in the pan.
He put a large spoonful of water along the edge of the pot, covered the pot and simmered over low heat.
In this way, you only need to wait three to five minutes and watch the cheese melt, then you can open the lid and take it out of the pot.
The pizza had just come out of the pan and was still hot. Fu Yu put it directly on the plate and put a bag on the outside so that Chen Chunjin could carry it away.
Fu Yu took the pizza to the living room and handed it to Chen Chunjin: "Uncle Chen, when I go back later, don't close the bag. It's a little hot when it comes out of the pan. Once it's simmered, the taste of the dough will be bad." ."
Chen Chunjin nodded quickly: "Thank you, Fu Yu!"
Fu Yu said with a smile: "You're welcome, it's getting late. Uncle Chen, you'd better go back quickly. Don't keep Auntie waiting."
Chen Chunjin nodded gratefully.
Fu Yu's family sent Chen Chunjin out of the house, watched him walk away, and then turned back to the house.
Fu Ma couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Chen is such a good husband, he knows how to love his wife."
Aunt Fu Yu hurriedly said: "All the men in our family are like this and know how to treat their wives well. Fu Yu will be like this in the future."
After hearing this, Liu Yuqing couldn't help but smile, and turned to look at Fu Yu with a very embarrassed expression.
Fu Yu saw it, with a calm expression on his face. When the elder was not paying attention, he quietly held Liu Yuqing's hand, and lightly scratched Liu Yuqing's palm with his fingertips, making the other party shrink back.
