The system’s check-in prompt arrives as scheduled

The owner, Konosuke Kanko, once worked as the head chef of the grilled food department at the Michelin-starred bird restaurant "Toriki" in Tokyo.

【Fame: 30】

[Fame introduction: 1 point of fame will allow 10 strangers to know you through different channels]

Li Xiao secretly looked up at the old man with gray temples, and sighed softly, the so-called love is probably like this.

I am willing to leave all fame and fortune behind and leave my hometown for you.

I would like to use your name and mine as a matchmaker to accompany me here.

Be courteous and courteous, run in with each other, support each other, and grow old together.

Li Xiao showed longing on his face, it would be great if he could have such a love.

Li Xiao looked at the 21 skewers of different shapes in the charcoal fire, and nodded slightly. He really deserves to be the head chef of the roasted food department of the Michelin one-star roasted bird restaurant "Niaoxi".

The other party's fire control is really good. Because each skewer is a different part of the chicken, the time for turning and flipping is different.

Some are long, some are short, some need to be constantly oiled, and some need to be placed where the flame is hotter.

After gaining proficiency in making roasted birds, even if Li Xiao doesn't need to look at his watch or pay attention to the heat, he can clearly know that every time the other party flips the food, it is at the best time, with an error of less than 0.2 seconds.

Li Xiao secretly moved to the edge of the bar to prevent his live broadcast from affecting other people's meals.

He said to the popular science in the live broadcast room
"The so-called Burning Bird is said to have originated from the Sakura Kingdom, a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, in the Edo period in the 17th century of the Sakura Kingdom.

At that time, the shogunate's ban on eating beef and chicken had not yet been lifted, and chicken was only eaten by the upper class, so chicken Si was a high-end food.

Therefore, Yakitori House mainly roasts chicken gizzards, chicken livers, chicken skins, chicken buttocks, etc., which basically belong to the garbage parts of chickens.

As for the grilling method, it is very simple. Use a small bamboo stick to skewer four pieces of chicken. If you like scallions, you can also add two pieces of scallions between the meat and meat, and then apply sweet soy sauce or sprinkle salt according to personal preference. The charcoal fire is grilled for a few minutes, and when the smoke is lingering and the aroma is overflowing, the index finger will naturally move.

At this time, the target is mainly the common people, and the image of the roasted bird shop is also to show people the image of cheap food, taking the route of popularization.

But later, the ban was abolished, and the types of burnt birds became more abundant.

Different from the barbecue in our Dahan Country, the barbecue in the Sakura Country pays more attention to the original flavor of the ingredients.

After only the simplest seasoning, it is served with mashed radish and other seasonings on the side. Although the skin of the skewered skewers is slightly burnt, it is tender and juicy after one bite, and the aftertaste is full of flavor.

It is precisely because of this simple cooking and seasoning method that Yakitori has high requirements for the freshness of the ingredients. Generally, Yakitori houses that are more particular will use fresh ingredients that are slaughtered on the same day, and they will only be sold out. "

The boss raised his head, but the movement of his hands did not stop, and a rare smile appeared on the corner of his mouth
"Yo, not bad, you actually understand it quite well?"

Li Xiao laughed. Although it was his first time to eat it, after gaining proficiency in making roasted birds, his knowledge might be even deeper than that of the Chef of Sakura Country who has been working for decades.

"A little bit, a little bit."

The boss chuckled, and returned his gaze to the dishes.

Li Xiao coughed lightly, continue to introduce

"Due to the characteristics of the Sakura country barbecue, they only use long charcoal, and the long charcoal with a length of 20 to 25 centimeters is the best.

Not only is the temperature super high, but it can also absorb the oil dripping from the fire without bursting open flames and sparks. The firepower is extremely stable and will not fluctuate, causing the food to be undercooked or burnt. "

Li Xiao took a deep breath, discerning the carbon material used by the boss, and his eyes were slightly astonished.

No wonder so many water friends recommend this store, no wonder there are so many people sitting here at this embarrassing time when there should be no customers.

This boss can even be meticulous in the simplest carbon materials that are ignored by most people.

Then the selection of ingredients may be more rigorous.

Li Xiao praised the live broadcast room

"Sure enough, it is a store recommended by everyone. I have already discovered that the charcoal used by the boss is actually lychee wood. Although lychee wood is very good, because the branches of lychee trees are usually thick and have many branches, it is not suitable for most situations. For long-term charcoal, because of the high consumption rate, the cost remains high.

However, in order to improve the quality of roasted birds and make the charcoal fragrance of roasted birds fresh enough, the boss chose lychee long charcoal, which is expensive and almost impossible to buy in the market. It really is a good shop with conscience. "

Li Xiaoyue said that he became more and more interested in this roasted bird whole food.

Soon, the boss handed the first plate of roasted bird to Li Xiao
"Slow use."

Li Xiao moved the camera slowly, aimed it at the plate in front of him, and introduced to everyone
"The first dish is [Roasted Chicken Heart], [Roasted Cartilage], and [Roasted Chicken Skin]. I will give you a taste of this grilled chicken heart first."

Li Xiao picked up the bamboo stick and gently bit off a piece of chicken heart that had been cut open.

As soon as the teeth bite open the outer skin of the chicken heart, the juice inside bursts out, which is very enjoyable.

Li Xiao took another bite, chewed carefully, and had time to chat with the water friends in the live broadcast room

"The marinated chicken heart is very special. The outer tissue of the heart is soft and glutinous, the taste of the blood vessels and the inner tissue is crisp, and the chicken heart is tender. The boss must have washed it with a lot of water before marinating to wash away the blood and impurities. So this chicken heart has no bloody smell at all.

In addition, I would like to tell everyone that the roast bird here is roasted with sauce.

Different from salt roasting with only salt and seven-flavored powder,

The flavor of grilled with sauce is richer. The sauce prepared with sake, mirin, soy sauce, sugar, green onions, chicken oil, etc. is brushed on the roasted bird at the right time, so that the sauce will melt with the grilled bird under the smoke of the charcoal fire. as one.

The sugar in it can even produce a coking reaction under an open flame, making the skin of the roasted bird golden and crispy. "

The audience in the live broadcast room complained endlessly, although they didn't see Li Xiao eating it.

But the camera was always looking at the two skewers that were still steaming on the plate. With the sound of Li Xiao gobbling outside the camera, everyone knew that this Xi Guan roast bird must be very delicious.
