National Tide 1980.

Chapter 337

So now that it's here.

"Zhang Dashao" also mentioned another thing by the way.

He said that in our seasoning, the really unique and important good thing is not MSG, but pepper.

If you rub the meat with pepper and salt, you will easily get a unique fragrance.

The easiest way to use it is to heat up the oil when cooking, and fry dozens of peppercorns first.

Then take out the peppercorns and throw them away, and fry the vegetables with the peppercorn oil, so that the eaters will feel the appetizing aroma.

Also, if the eggplant is mixed with a small spoonful of pepper oil at the end, and the belly is soaked in pepper sugar water first, there will be unexpected feelings.

In fact, pepper water can be used to enhance the fragrance of almost all cold dishes.

And since halal dishes do not use alcohol, it is inseparable from pepper oil to kill fishy smell.

Needless to say, after receiving this true biography, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui naturally told their relatives to take the medicine according to the prescription and experiment again.

It was found that it has a magical effect like magic.

Especially the application of peppercorns, that thing can really evoke the deliciousness of the raw materials, just like a catalyst.

So this summer, the cold dishes and fried pickles at No. 2 Faner Hutong and Zhang Shihui's house became more and more delicious.

The heat does not affect their appetite as much as in the past, and the trick to solve the bitter summer lies in this spoonful of pepper water.

But just these two things are nothing, "Zhang Dashao" has made great achievements, and there is another law that benefits all sentient beings.

what?

Just water the meat!

Is this sentence interesting?

To be honest, when Ning Weimin first heard these four words, he thought they were filled with water.

Obviously, this obvious outrageous statement made him almost bang his head against the wall, and he couldn't believe his ears at all.

But don't worry, what "Zhang Dashao" wants to say is of course different from the water-injected meat mentioned by the health supervision department.

This is actually the secret to fried pork shreds and fried pork slices.

You know, whether you are a cook or a qualified housewife, whether the sliced ​​and shredded pork is fried or not is a basic indicator.

This thing seems to be light, but it is actually quite technically demanding.

First of all, the knife work should be a little level, and the thickness should be consistent, without delay or connection.

Then the heat is also very particular, if it takes a little longer to cook, it will get old.

If there is not enough time, there will be bloodshot eyes.

Also what seasoning to use.

According to different types and parts of meat, the proportions of soy sauce, pepper, starch, monosodium glutamate, sugar and cooking wine are different.

It is even more impossible for people in this era to learn from those cooks who are good at chemistry 30 years later, what kind of meat tenderizer to use.

Therefore, these years, it is necessary to test whether a cook is qualified or not, and whether a housewife is good at cooking.

As long as you have a little fried meat, you will understand everything.

But even professional chefs and housewives who are good at cooking may not understand some key tricks.

Under normal circumstances, even if the knife skills, heat, and seasoning are all in place, that is, the sliced ​​and shredded pork are fried deliciously.

If you want to call it another "fragrant", it is still a luxury that can be seen but not touched.

But "Zhang Dashao" can use a few words to make this matter undergo a miraculous qualitative change.

He can almost do it in one step, and let a person with some cooking skills improve the fried pork slices and shredded pork from delicious to "fragrant".

As for the secret, it is actually very simple, and the essence lies in "mixing water".

To put it bluntly, it means that the shredded meat needs to be mixed with some water before being mixed with the seasoning, and then grasped by hand.

Make the water seep into the fibers of the meat slices.

After that, marinate and season according to the general method, and then stir-fry, the sliced ​​meat will be fresh, tender and smooth, which is different from others.

This is obviously also a kind of "water injection".

But because it was different from the black-hearted butcher's attack time, the result was quite different.

It can be seen that water injection itself is not a problem.

The right time to add water is the secret of cooking.

Wrong, that is a mess.

As for why the meat slices and shredded pork are delicious when mixed with water?

Especially for chicken why the effect is particularly significant?
This may be a bit troublesome to explain, so "Zhang Dashao" didn't elaborate at all.

No matter what Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui asked, the old man just said, "Is it over if it's okay?"

That's right, as long as it's delicious.

In short, no matter how you say it.

Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui, in their relationship with "Zhang Dashao", there are two things that can be confirmed.

One is that we must not underestimate the culinary culture of our country. The 5000-year inheritance is by no means a joke.

From the purely perspective of creating beauty, I am afraid that the one who contributes the most to our life is a good cook.

They can reconcile the five flavors and turn decay into magic, which cannot but be respected.

The second is that Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui admired "Zhang Dashao"'s culinary skills through repeated calls.

Don't look at people who didn't make gestures at all, the teachings they gave were basically just a few casual words of advice.

But it’s true that just a word from others is better than your own research and exploration for decades.

So out of this admiration, every Sunday, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui entertained the chef as if they were chauffeurs.

They always prepare good cigarettes and wine, seasonal freshness, high-end fruit, and considerate service.

Speaking of it, the material advantage is only second, the key is that this face respect is really rare.

So not only "Zhang Dashao" is quite satisfied with this.

It also made the decoration workers, and the neighbors in the neighborhood really thought the two young men were the distant nephews of "Zhang Dashao", but they had no doubts at all.

The only thing that makes Zhang Shihui a little bit disappointed is that no matter how capable "Zhang Dashao" is, he can't use it to make money.

He wanted to invite "Zhang Dashao" to take the helm, and planned to open a restaurant with Ning Weimin, but it fell through as soon as he said it.

Because not only "Zhang Dashao" himself responded by shaking his head to this incident.

He said that he has been frying food all his life, and now he wants to take it easy and serve himself.

Even Ning Weimin felt that catering was too tiring.

Said that now is not a good time for high profits in this industry, and it is not worthwhile to do this.

He also advised Zhang Shihui to give up his thoughts and concentrate on running the Haoyan Hotel.

Zhang Shihui's arms couldn't twist her thighs, so she could only recognize her head in the end.

But the depression of having nowhere to display his revenge is unavoidable after all.

But having said that, even so, it cannot be said that "Zhang Dashao" has no substantial help to the careers of Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui.

Because there is a saying, called the ultimate skill, almost Tao.

And the reason why a smart person is a smart person lies in his understanding, which is difficult for ordinary people, and his exquisite heart that can draw inferences from one instance.

Regardless of the fact that "Zhang Dashao" usually talks about "eating" in his mouth and in his heart.

But in Ning Weimin's ears, there was a change of analogy.

Especially the old man's theory of original taste and theory of changing taste, all the tricks he said are "all in the details".

It is said that "whatever comes, there will be back, and where there is positive, there will be negative", and it is said that "only by working together can there be no shortcomings".

Like a revelation from some kind of god, Ning Weimin felt the calling of money.

He found that his brain seemed to have not been explored, and the business seemed to have the possibility of reverse thinking, and there was another way.

I was so excited about this, and I couldn't finish thinking about it seriously.

This is not surprising.

After all, eating is for people, and business is also for people.

Both of these professions require the study of human needs and psychology.

And as long as you think about people thoroughly, there is nothing wrong with it.
