Chapter 206 Roast Suckling Pig
Qin Xu put down the kitchen knife in his hand and turned around, looking at the people who formed a small circle in front of him and looked at him with surprise.Reluctantly said:
"I said, you underestimate brother too much. Although you don't do much, you can still cook these small dishes.

"Ahem, what are you talking about? Side dishes?"

Xu Mengyao was choked inadvertently, looking at the relaxed Qin Xu, feeling helpless in her heart.

When did a well-known big dish in the famous Man-Han Banquet become a side dish that can be prepared easily?
Reaching out to help Xu Mengyao pat him, Qin Xu felt amused, he was just trying to annoy these guys on purpose, to make you all look down on them.

"Okay, let me let you go. Brother Wang will show you something today. Really, if the tiger doesn't show its power, you really don't know how powerful it is."

Seeing that Xu Mengyao was fine, Qin Xu waved his hand and drove away Wang Ming and the others, as well as the girls who had surrounded him just now. What are they doing chattering around here?
"Hey, hello, we just came here, don't tell us what happened."

Su Rui almost didn't jump up, cooperating with the old lady who finally rushed back from the outside, you just drove the old lady back without saying anything.

"Hey, you ask them to go, brother is going to start cooking."

Impatiently waving his hand, Qin Xu knew he couldn't talk to this girl, otherwise it would be endless.

With doubts on their foreheads, Su Rui and Lin Xue walked towards the living room. Even Wu Lan didn't mention the matter of letting the old university cook.

In the minds of several people, what Qin Xu said just now was still echoing, he wants to cook?
"No way, Yaoyao, is he cooking today? What do you eat?"

Looking at Xu Mengyao next to her, Su Rui asked in astonishment, never heard that this guy could cook before.

"Roast suckling pig." Xu Mengyao replied in a daze.

"What are you talking about?" Su Rui felt that there was something wrong with her ears.

"Roast suckling pig!" Xu Mengyao came back to her senses and repeated it with certainty.

Su Rui looked at Xu Mengyao who was very serious with a deluded face, looked at the kitchen in disbelief, and asked:

"You mean, Qin Xu wants to make roast suckling pig? The one for the full banquet?"

Qin Xu didn't know about the discussion outside, he was still depressed in his heart, what kind of vision was this, even though he doesn't usually like to do it, it doesn't mean he can't.

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, Qin Xu decided to vent his anger on the unlucky guy in front of him.Turn the wild boar over, remove the suet from its body, and remove three or four ribs from its front chest, and take off the shoulder blades along the way.

After removing the ribs, Qin Xu rinsed them thoroughly with clean water and put them aside to control the water.While controlling the water, Qin Xu checked again to see if the surface of the pig's body had been scraped and cleaned.

However, after turning the wild boar around and looking at it, he couldn't help but admire John again. The old man was quite neat at his work, and he handled the little wild boar cleanly.

When the water was almost under control, Qin Xu put the suckling pig on the kitchen counter, rubbed five-spice powder and salt into the pig's abdominal cavity, and began to marinate it.

After checking the time, Qin Xu went to prepare some ingredients first.After marinating for about half an hour, he mixed the prepared seasoning sauce, fermented bean curd, sesame paste, sugar, minced garlic, chopped shallot, minced onion, monosodium glutamate, raw powder, Fen wine and five-spice powder, and spread them on the belly of the wild boar. .

After spreading the seasoning evenly, Qin Xu first put the pot with a pot of boiling water, and then found a piece of pine wood about [-] centimeters long and two pieces of pine wood more than ten centimeters long (the long one was used as a straight support, and the short one for horizontal braces).

Put them in the wild boar's abdominal cavity to support them, and then tie them with iron wire to make the suckling pig shape, and then insert two steel forks in the front and back of the wild boar's body, so that they can be roasted later.

After the wild boar was supported, the water in the pot happened to be almost full, so Qin Xu directly poured the hot water in the pot on the wild boar.

Qin Xu waited until the tender skin of the wild boar was hardened before wiping off the moisture on the surface.Because according to the experience in my mind, after this step, a layer of malt syrup can be evenly coated.

Speaking of this maltose syrup, Qin Xu originally thought that there was no maltose in the manor. After all, no one in the pasture had eaten it. Unexpectedly, after asking around, John actually said that he had it at home.

Since he had it, Qin Xu was not polite, and directly ordered him to run back quickly and brought the maltose over.

Originally, John volunteered to come in and help Qin Xu, after all, he and he had baked things with malt syrup before.But Qin Xu waved his hand and refused.

One was that Qin Xu wanted to give them a surprise, and the other was because the syrup was not so easy to adjust.Because if you want the finished product to have a uniform color and crispy skin, the quality requirements for the crispy syrup used are very high.

Qin Xu took the maltose and returned to the kitchen, not looking at the people who were looking at him curiously along the way.

Put maltose into a small pot, pour about 150 grams of boiling water into it, wait until it is completely melted, then add white wine and vinegar and stir evenly, so that you can make a crispy syrup, and it is still of good quality kind.

Because when the syrup is prepared, maltose must not be added, because it contains sugar, and it is easy to be colored when heated, so that the finished product turns black.

After the syrup was adjusted, Qin Xu spread it evenly on the suckling pig's skin, and then hung it in a ventilated place, ready to dry the skin.

Because the moisture on the surface of the pigskin must be wiped dry before the crispy syrup can be applied and evenly applied.

And after spreading the crispy syrup evenly, Qin Xu continued to hang him behind the vent to dry, because only in this way can he be baked.

Otherwise, after the wild boar is roasted, the phenomenon of "painted face" will appear.

Everything is ready, Qin Xu is ready to roast, and according to memory, there are two ways to roast suckling pig.

One is to bake in an open furnace, use a rectangular iron oven, burn the hearth red, put it like a forked suckling pig, and bake on the fire.

Bake the breast and belly first, about 20 minutes.Roast again and again, the whole body of pigs, especially the neck and waist, must be acupunctured to drain water.

At the same time, it is necessary to brush oil constantly to wipe off or smooth out the fat seeping from the inside and outside of the roast, so as not to flow on the skin or meat and affect the appearance.

The second is to bake in a dark oven, using a common roast duck oven.First heat the furnace to a high temperature, put the suckling pig carcass into the furnace, and bake for about 30 minutes.When the pigskin starts to change color, take it out and prick it with a needle, brush the oozing fat, and then bake for 20-30 minutes until cooked.

No matter which method is used, it must be turned frequently when baking to achieve uniform color.

As for the method of identifying ripeness: check the oil flowing out of the pig body. When it is clear and whitish, it proves that the suckling pig has been roasted.
