Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 679 667. Beef Balls

However, this wave of operations really confused the audience friends in front of the screen.

"???"

Even Li Xiao was a little confused.

Question marks are all over the barrage.

"???"

"I'm going, what's the situation?"

"Didn't you say you want to use this for cooking? Why put a charcoal into this paste?"

"Why do you want to do this? It's all covered with dust, how can you eat it?"

"Yes, all the dust from the coals got in."

"Is this still edible?"

"I seem to know why I did this."

"If you do this, there will probably be a burnt aroma."

"I'm still a little confused, I feel like this is dirty."

"Why did the previous one say that this is dirty? You see, this fire was picked out of the stove. The temperature inside the stove is so high, even if there is a little bit of bacteria in it, it should be killed."

"So this should be very clean and free of bacteria."

"Why do you say this is dirty? This is pretty clean, I think, but it's just a psychological feeling that it's not good if it's covered with dust."

"In ancient times, the ash from the bottom of the pot was used to make medicine. How could it be unclean? It should be quite clean, otherwise he wouldn't do it. There must be a reason for him to do so."

"What you said seems to make sense, but I still hate this thing, anyway, I don't eat it."

"It's fine if you don't eat, it's not your turn to eat anyway."

"Ahhh, why does my favorite anchor have to go through this?"

"Anchor, why don't we run away, don't broadcast this episode, anyway, there is nothing wrong, we still support you."

"Run away because the food is too weird. If so, the anchor will definitely be sprayed by many sunspots in the future."

"What do you mean, our group of true fans can't beat them? How can we let them criticize our anchor for nothing?"

"It's so strange what you said. If the anchor is not willing, who will let him eat these things?"

"Anchor, let's go, I can't bear to let you eat this."

"I'm afraid it's too early for you to make such a decision now. If this is really a delicacy, then wouldn't the anchor miss a delicacy?"

"How can there be such a strange food?"

"Isn't the wild mushroom you're talking about also weird? Not only is it weird, but if you don't pay attention, it may be poisoned, and the taste is not very delicious."

"Sure enough, there are so many wonderful delicacies in Yunnan."

"I don't know if there will be any weird things in the future."

"I can accept any weird things that come out, as long as the anchor is not poisoned to death."

"I seriously suspect that you are cursing people, but I have no proof."

"Pray that this food is really delicious, otherwise, the host will suffer this crime for nothing."

"In life, you have to try all kinds of things."

"Otherwise, how do you know if this thing is good or not?"

"Come on, anchor, I like you."

Li Xiao also looked at Lao Wang with question marks all over his face.

That expression seemed to be asking him why he put a charcoal in it.

Lao Wang clearly saw Li Xiao's doubts.

He scratched his head uncomfortably.

Then he said, "You want to ask me why I put a charcoal in it? It would taste better if it was covered with ashes."

"I think it should be like this, because I have eaten fire-roasted pork before, and I also think that it tastes better when it is covered with ashes."

"Anyway, my ancestors have done this for generations before. What's the reason for him? The ancestor must have a reason for doing so."

Damn, it turns out that Pharaoh didn't know why he set fire to the charcoal.

The two of them chatted one after another, while chatting, while looking at the goo in the pot.

The water gradually evaporated, and the bitter water in the pot became drier.

The more it comes to this kind of time, the more you can't relax.

Because as long as you don't pay attention, the bitter water in this pot may stick to the pot and be fried.

Pharaoh kept stirring, frying the digestives evenly.

Three hours have passed.

The sky is gradually brightening, and all kinds of birds are also singing outside.

The singing is pleasant.

Li Xiao and Lao Wang were still sitting by the stove.

The color of the bitter water has long since changed from yellow when it first entered to the current dark brown.

"You can see that it's almost the same level of speculation."

The water was gradually fried, Lao Wang said while stirring.

"After frying in this state, the bottom is slightly mushy, so when we eat more authentic sabo, it will have a faint mushy aroma."

It's the smell of being fried.

After frying, Lao Wang poured some cold boiled water into the pot.

The digested matter that had just been fried, after being washed away, formed a dark brown soup.

Some people may think that Lao Wang's behavior is superfluous.

But I forgot what the cow's digesta looked like when it first entered the pot.

Although it is fried and then added water, the state of the water that comes out has changed a lot.

From being sticky at the beginning, it has become the same texture as the current coffee.

Lao Wang found a piece of cloth as a filter medium.

Then I found another pot, put the white cloth on it, and poured the bitter water in the pot into it.

Impurities are filtered out by the white cloth.

And what remains is a pot of top-notch bitter water.

This is also the main raw material used to make Sapai today.

After the bitter water was filtered, Pharaoh sat down with a spoon and put it into his mouth with satisfaction.

Then he showed an intoxicated expression on his face.

He happily took another spoon and handed it to Li Xiao who was standing beside him, very excited.

"Today's frying is very good, and the taste is very authentic."

"Probably because the anchor is by my side, so my technique is very careful, there is no reason for mistakes?"

"Anchor, come and taste it, what does it taste like?"

Li Xiao took the spoon. Although he knew how it was made, the state of this pot of bitter water was different from the bitter intestine just now.

From the slimy digesta to the current basin of bitter water, although it is dark water, it is much more acceptable than mush.

Do you want to try it?

Li Xiao looked at the bitter water in the basin, frowned, and returned the spoon to Old Wang as if he had suddenly made up his mind.

Then Li Xiao waved his hand vigorously.

"I think I'll taste it after the dishes are ready. I can't accept this very well now. It might be better to make a dish."

"I haven't even tried it. You just let me drink this water, which is too embarrassing for me."

Li Xiao spread his hands helplessly, and said to Old Wang.

Lao Wang thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be the same thing.

He didn't force Li Xiao to put away this bowl of bitter water that was made after untold hardships.

Then it was time to prepare the other ingredients.

First of all, of course, is beef.

I saw Lao Wang took out a piece of beef back.

Then he took out another wooden stick, put the beef on the cutting board, and hammered it hard.

It looks very violent.

Even the fans on the barrage couldn't help complaining.

"Hahaha, look at Lao Wang's hammering, it's really violent!"

"What did Lao Wang do before? It seems that he is not a good person."

"Run, anchor, this old Wang doesn't look like a good guy."

"Anchor, you still have time to run now."

"Why does this meat have to be hammered like this? Could it be to make meatballs?"

"I thought only Chaoshan had beef balls."

"The beef balls in Chaoshan are indeed very famous, but there are also beef balls in other regions."

"So is he going to make beef balls today? Has anyone come out to answer, beef balls with this bitter water?"

"My God, this combination is too weird, I can't accept it."

"Think about beef balls paired with bitter water, how do you eat bitter beef balls?"

"The ones in front of you must have thought too much."

"Looking at the way Lao Wang kept stirring the pot with a shovel, I couldn't help but think of a wizard refining medicine."

"It's the big villain in the cartoon, the old witch, just like the stepmother in Snow White."

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, I also feel that he looks like he is practicing medicine, and the pot is still yellow-green."

"He's still stirring and talking over the stove."

"When you put it that way, I suddenly realized that from some angles, he looks like a witch."

"Just finished refining the medicine, now it's time to beat the beef again."

"No way, why is it beef again? First it was the intestines of a cow and now it's beef again. What did Niuniu do wrong?"

"Niu Niu is so cute, how can you eat Niu Niu?"

"Niu Niu is so cute, of course he wants to eat it in his stomach."

"Niu Niu is so cute, is it okay to use it for hot pot?"

"I think it can be made into beef balls, or boiled in soup."

"It can be steamed, fried or fried. I just like to eat them."

Old Wang naturally didn't know about the conversation on the barrage.

But Li Xiao laughed and told Lao Wang these words.

"Old Wang, they said that you just endured the bitter water, like a witch practicing medicine."

"It's like the stepmother who made poisoned apples for Snow White in Snow White."

Lao Wang laughed while beating the beef.

"The imagination of this group of netizens is really rich."

"Am I that scary?"

Li Xiao got closer and pointed the camera at the beef on the board.

Lao Wang's wooden stick fell down one after another, beating the beef until it became soft.

"Old Wang, your strength in pounding beef is really great!"

"Look at how you beat this beef?"

While beating, Lao Wang smiled at Li Xiao.

"Hey, what's the matter? I think my strength is appropriate, do you want me to give you a few strokes?"

Lao Wang really loves to joke.

"Don't, with your strength, I will be hammered into several knots."

Li Xiao pretended to be frightened, and then leaned over and asked, "Then may I ask, what are you using to beat this beef?"

"Of course it's used to make sprinkles."

Lao Wang asked him back: "Don't you always know what we are going to do today? You still ask."

"No, no, you didn't understand me."

Li Xiao waved his hand and continued speaking in an interview tone.

"I just want to ask, what do you do with the beef after you finish pounding it?"

"Do you want to make beef balls?"

"What did you say? Make beef balls?"

"Hahahahaha..."

Old Wang laughed like he heard some extremely funny joke.

"When did you hear that beef balls are used to make Sa Pai?"

"What kind of strange statement is this? It must be a dark dish."

Li Xiao couldn't help complaining silently in his heart, what you are doing now is the biggest dark cooking, okay?

Too bad you don't feel that way yourself.

Lao Wang laughed for a while, and finally had enough.

While reaching out, he picked out the white tendons in the beef that were not easy to reject.

While answering Li Xiao: "This beef should be beaten into fine pieces, and then put in our bitter water."

"It's like a seasoning."

"In this way, it will taste like beef again."

"There are also minced beef in some skimmers, but they are either chopped with a knife or made with a machine. I always feel that it is different from the one I hammered out with a wooden stick."

"It can't be done with a knife, or with a machine."

"Only by picking out the white tendons inside can the taste of this spaghetti be good."

"If there are these muscles in it, think about it, when you eat, you will encounter the kind that is not chewable and cannot be chewed."

"That would be bad."

Li Xiao thought so too.

After a while, Lao Wang finally hammered the beef.

Put the pounded beef into a bowl, and then add some chives, Lao Burmese coriander, chili noodles with fire chili, and millet pepper.

Finally, pour in a spoonful of bitter water and sprinkle one portion, and it's done.

Of course, at this time, we can't forget the bitter intestines that have just been fished out of the pot.

After Sapa was done, Pharaoh actually took out a barbecue grill.

After the fire was lit underneath, Lao Wang took out the bitter sausage just now, then brushed it with oil and put it on the grill.

The bitter intestines are sizzling, and the bitter intestines are overflowing with oil, which looks very delicious.

After the bitter sausage is cooked, put it on a small plate.

Next, cut some tripe, beef liver and the like, and put them on a separate plate.

In this way, it is ready to eat.

Serve all these dishes on the table, the sky is already bright.

The sun was shining warmly on him.

Li Xiao looked at a dish on the table.

In the bowl are chopped chives and coriander, as well as red beef and black bitter water.

And of course chili.

There is also a red chili on the side of the bowl.

It's just shabu shabu.

Shabu-shabu is very spicy, just like his name, just shabu-shabu in the soup, it will make the whole dish full of spicy.

However, this shabu shabu is an indispensable part of Dehong cuisine.

Some people even say that if there is no shabu shabu in it, it is not perfect.

You can guess it just by looking at it with your eyes. It must be a very exciting dish.
