Everyone has different requirements for soup.
For Zhao Fuyu, the existence of soup not only makes people salivate, but also satisfy their taste.
The taste that connects the past and the next is not just a simple taste, it must also be unforgettable.
Finding a balance between the two is Zhao Fuyu's way to break the situation.
...
Mainly the hind leg meat, paired with about quarters of pork belly, cut into small pieces and chopped into minced meat by hand.
This is the origin of meatballs, the second ingredient in Cho Fuyu’s soup.
It's just that a delicious meatball often needs to go through a process that is not as simple as it seems. Just chopping it by hand is just an entry-level level.
Next, you have to mix the onion and ginger with water and a little salt, squeeze out the onion and ginger juice, and then add it into the meat filling in small amounts to remove the fishy smell and improve the freshness, and make the inside of the meatballs full of moisture.
This moisture will not only escape when you taste the meatballs, but also blend into the soup, becoming a delicious part of the soup.
After preparing the onion and ginger juice, the next step is to season and soften the meat filling.
First of all, you must add salt, hand-ground white pepper, and then add a little oyster sauce, about a teaspoon, and half a teaspoon of light soy sauce.
When all the seasonings are added, you can start stirring.
Stir continuously in one direction, and make sure the meat filling absorbs all the seasonings. When you feel some resistance when stirring, you can add a little onion and ginger juice, and then continue. Stir in one direction until the water is absorbed by the meat filling.
Slowly add about a tablespoon of scallion and ginger juice into the meat filling. The meat filling will have a clear luster, but it will not have too much water to form.
At this time, the basic seasoning of the meat filling for the meatballs has been completed.
The next step is to add the binder, which is starch.
Any starch can be used. Zhao Fuyu usually adds sweet potato starch, which will make it smoother.
After adding starch, you can feel that the resistance of the meat filling will be more obvious when stirring, but you can also feel that the adhesion between the meat fillings is better.
At this time, you can grab the meat filling and beat it repeatedly to combine the inside of the meat filling more tightly and expel the air.
At this point, the meat filling is basically complete. Just wait until the meatballs are squeezed out and cooked through.
At this point, Zhao Fuyu's soup is almost complete. Wrap the meat filling basin with plastic wrap to prevent the surface from drying out and losing the flavor. The next step is to deal with the winter melon part.
Cut off the skin with a knife, especially the thick fibers, and then remove part of the winter melon pulp.
The next step is to cut into pieces with a hob. For a versatile ingredient like winter melon, very little processing is required.
Just remember one key thing: after washing the winter melon, do not soak it in water after peeling it. Otherwise, the sweetness contained in the winter melon will be lost along with the water, and the increase in water content will also cause a loss of taste.
Many people just don't pay attention to this when making winter melon dishes. Instead, the flavor that the winter melon should have cannot come out. It feels like there is no extra flavor except a soft texture.
It was at this step when dealing with winter melon that there was a little problem.
In addition, if you have time, you can fry the winter melon in a little oil and fry it for a while before cooking.
The aroma and richness of the taste will also be improved a lot.
But the soup that Zhao Fuyu made this time didn't need to be so troublesome.
Otherwise, a too strong flavor will destroy the balanced taste.
After taking care of the meatballs and winter melon, all Zhao Fuyu needed was to wait.
Waiting for the completion of the four-animal soup!
Now, a layer of oil has floated, and the slightly golden amber soup pot has also emitted a somewhat unusual light.
...
"I can't tell..."
"What kind of soup is he going to make?"
The low-pitched discussion comes from the eliminated cooks. They will naturally gather together to communicate. After all, they are all descendants of the world. Moreover, two people are short-term and three are long-term. If they communicate, they will have different feelings about cooking.
Especially the Dragon Chef giants who are the seed players are their special targets for observation.
Zhao Fuyu, who ranks first in terms of fame and strength, is naturally the focus of their attention.
However, after watching Zhao Fuyu's cooking process, many people can hardly see anything special, and they really can't understand how these simple techniques can be combined into a wonderful dish.
Especially dishes like soup that require a lot of effort.
It's a torment for everyone.
But Zhao Fuyu's cooking process was extremely smooth and simple, and there didn't seem to be any effort involved.
"Can he make any wonderful dishes like this?"
It is not that no one has doubts, but everyone knows what is the key to this competition, and they will never think that Zhao Fuyu will ignore this assessment.
But there really can't be any traces in those movements.
In fact, this is not surprising. These dishes that were eliminated in the first round may have good talents and have been recognized by Shirinji in some aspects, but after all, they are still slightly weaker, otherwise they would not be eliminated directly in the first round. .
So much so that he missed the opportunity to study at Shirinji Temple.
Until now, they have not realized how important it is to study in Shilin Temple.
This is what will separate many of them from others in the future.
With their eyes, they naturally couldn't understand Zhao Fuyu's effortless approach to cooking, as well as his extremely solid skills.
You must know that even if you are processing the four kinds of birds at the beginning, just removing the internal blood clots, and massaging the whole body to speed up the cooking and softening of the ingredients, that kind of technique is not something that ordinary cooks can imagine.
You have to go through thousands of tempers and be familiar with all kinds of ingredients to be able to do it.
And when making soup, you can simply throw various herbs and spices into the soup pot at the best proportion.
Not to mention the beating of meatballs and the processing of winter melon.
It may seem like a simple thing can be accomplished easily, but just completing it is not enough, it must be perfect.
One thing I didn't realize is that if it's almost the same here and the same there, then the final taste will definitely not be the taste of the food cooked by Zhao Fuyu.
This is why many people cannot cook monumental dishes even though they have monumental recipes.
If you don't have the skill of craftsmanship and the basic skills that have been honed over time, you can't even think of being able to master them.
Of course, it was more than just craftsmanship. While waiting, Zhao Fuyu took out a vessel that many people had never seen before.
It was placed in the open space in front of the stove and began to burn charcoal and make a fire.
The few people who recognized the origin of the artifact were shocked.
'crock? ! '
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
