Chapter 206 The trick to making fish heads!Sheep are so cute, they must be marinated thoroughly before roasting! 【Ask monthly ticket】

Lin Xu came outside with the finished big fish head, and the spicy smell immediately attracted all relatives.

"Why does it smell so good?"

"I remember that the big fish head I ate last time in the city didn't taste like this."

"The scent goes straight into the nostrils."

"Our Xiaoxu's craftsmanship is really amazing!"

A huge circular dining table has been set up in the yard.

Put the fish head in the middle, and then put on the previously made raw fried fish fillet, boiled fish offal, boiled fish fillet, sweet and sour fish fillet and dry fried fish fillet.

I'll make the dashi tofu later.

Even if the big silver carp caught by the second uncle was completely arranged.

At this time, the second uncle Shi Wenming also stewed the big goose.

The two big geese were quite fat, and if they were all slaughtered, they would not be able to eat them all, so he kept one.

For a village banquet chef like him, those famous dishes may not be able to be cooked, but this kind of dishes stewed in an iron pot are at hand. In addition, they are stewed in a ground pot in the yard. floated out.

"Xiaoxu, this fish head is really beautiful, teach me later, when I learn it, our restaurant will serve this big wild fish head with chopped peppers!"

Since contracting this scenic spot, the fish in the reservoir have never been taken care of.

It has neither spread feed nor stocked fish fry, so it is true to say that it is wild.

It would be a pity for such a good fish to grow in the reservoir, and if there are too many, it will affect the water quality, so if there is an opportunity to create profits, it must be seized.

Lin Xu said:

"No problem Uncle, I promise to teach you before I leave!"

While he was talking, Lin Hongqi led Liu Zhengyu back after walking around the scenic spot.

"It's all done, right? Then let's eat! Chairman Liu, you have been wronged by the simple food. When Xiao Xu returns to the capital, I will treat you to a good meal."

Well, knowing that Liu Zhengyu made this special trip for the scenic spot, Lin Xu decided at that time that when he returned to the capital, he had to invite Liu Zhengyu to Diaoyutai for a meal.

Liu Zhengyu said with a smile:

"Don't be polite. I just found out today that the potential of Longqi Mountain Scenic Area is really huge. If we continue to develop it, let alone 4A, 5A will not be a problem!"

Now the scenic spots are all around the outermost Longshou Peak.

As a matter of fact, there is not only a huge gentle slope stretching for [-] to [-] kilometers with waist-length grass, but also a valley tens of kilometers long behind the mountain.

The water in the reservoir flows to the outside world through the river channel in the valley.

In the future, no matter whether the scenic spot develops the gentle slope on the other side of the reservoir into a pasture, or turns the valley into an adventure valley or a valley like Yuntai Mountain, the scenic spot can be qualitatively improved.

In addition, the mountain can also continue to be developed inward, using plank roads to connect several nearby peaks together, and then building some aerial cableway and other projects, the ability to attract tourists will be further improved.

In short, this is a treasure scenic spot.

Once developed, it will definitely become a large-scale scenic spot in the northern part of the Central Plains that integrates eating, drinking, entertainment, leisure and relaxation, vacation and health care, and getting close to nature.

"Then let President Liu give me a good word!"

Lin Hongqi and Liu Zhengyu washed their hands, then sat down at the big round table with their relatives and started eating.

There are too many people today to sit at one table.

So the fish head was divided into two halves, and the dishes on the table were separated as much as possible. Next to the big table, a table was set up for Lin Xu's cousins.

Chen Yuanyuan took a look:
"Ha! I sit at the children's table!"

Shen Baobao also wanted to sit there, but Chen Meijuan held her back:

"Children eat a lot, and you may not be able to beat them."

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Chen Yuanyuan to return angrily with her stool.

Compared with her younger brothers and sisters who are growing up, her combat effectiveness in grabbing food is really insignificant.

Just at this moment, Lin Xu came out of the kitchen after finishing the stewed crayfish, sat down next to Baby Shen, and started eating with everyone.

"Xiao Xu, how do you make this fish head with chopped pepper? It's much more delicious than ordinary fish head with chopped pepper."

The second aunt Lin Hongxia found the fish head more delicious the more she ate it.

At first, when Chen Meiliang brought the fish over, she worried that she would never be able to finish it.

But now I feel that it would be great if there was another one.

Lin Xu took a sip, and after marinating thoroughly, the umami taste of the fish was fully stimulated.

In addition, after frying the ingredients, the pungent taste of the chili is fried out, leaving only a soft spicy taste, so it tastes even more delicious.

He smiled and said:

"Before cooking, stir-fry the ingredients with hot oil and dried fermented soybeans, and steam them after frying until fragrant, so that the aroma will come out."

"If you use chopped peppers, do you have to fry them?"

"It also has to be fried, and before frying, you have to chop the pepper and wash it to wash out the excess salt. After the chopped pepper is marinated, the spiciness will be softer. If you don't feel satisfied, add some spicy millet when frying."

Lin Xu explained the main points of this dish to his relatives while talking.

The first is to clean the fish thoroughly and split the fish from above the head so that it is easier to steam through.

The second is to marinate the fish thoroughly so that the umami flavor of the fish can be steamed out.

The third is the stir-frying ingredients. Strictly speaking, when making this dish of chopped pepper fish head, it should be fried with tea oil produced in Xiangtan area, which tastes the most authentic.

Fourth, after steaming and turning off the fire, you can’t rush out of the pot. You have to steam for two or three minutes to let the fragrance penetrate into the fish again.

Fifth, when heating the oil, put some lard as much as possible, which can make the fish taste more fragrant and moist.

After talking about a few key points, the relatives showed eager expressions one by one.

Compared with other dishes, this dish does not require knife skills, nor does it need to pay attention to other aspects. It only needs to be steamed thoroughly. It is definitely the first choice for newcomers to try.

And after making it, no matter the taste or the appearance, it is very outstanding.

If you make such a dish at a family banquet, wouldn't it amaze everyone?

Lin Xu picked a piece of meat from the belly of the fish and tasted it. The meat of this part was steamed like jelly, dipped in the spicy soup at the bottom of the plate, it tasted very delicious.

call……

It is indeed a perfect cooking technique.

The fish head made is delicious.

In addition to fish heads and several other fish dishes, there are crisp fried small river prawns made by Shi Wenming, fried wild vegetables with lard, and cold dishes made with several other wild vegetables on the table.

There is nothing to say about the taste.

And this kind of food is not available outside, so everyone eats very happily.

Especially Liu Zhengyu and Zeng Xiaoqi.

While eating and sighing, it is true that a leaf in the mountains is more delicious than the city.

After eating for a while, Lin Xu went back to the kitchen to look at the crayfish. By the way, he picked up the pressure cooker from the stove, let off the gas, and then took out the fish bones inside and removed the fish meat.

Well, you can't patronize eating, you have to prepare something for the children.

After picking out the fish, he searched around, and finally found Dundun next to the cage containing the remaining big goose. At this time, the little guy bent his body and turned into a goose hunter again.

"Why do you always think about leapfrogging challenges?"

Lin Xu carried it to the door of the kitchen, put the fish that was spread out on the plate to dry in a disposable lunch box, and served it to the little guy.

Seeing Rourou, Dundun immediately turned into a dry rice cat, lowered his head and ate it with big mouthfuls.

before the table.

Old Mrs. Lin wearing glasses said to Shen Baobao:
"Yueyue, hurry up and eat more while it's hot, don't be hungry at our own home."

Shen Jiayue agreed, and then said to her mother-in-law:
"Grandma is so kind!"

Chen Meijuan smiled:

"That was when you didn't see your grandma's hot temper. When I first got married, our family went to visit relatives. The relatives were more traditional. When eating, they said that women should not be on the table and asked me to eat in the kitchen. You Grandma was so angry that she overturned the table on the spot, and the vegetables on the table were scattered all over the room!"

Wow!
Shen Baobao's eyes are full of little stars, and his eyes are full of admiration when he looks at Mrs. Lin:
"Grandma is so handsome!"

I really didn't expect that the grandmother who seemed to be quite a lady in the Republic of China actually had such a side.

But considering that the elegant and easy-going grandfather also chased his father for several blocks with a shovel back then, it seems normal for grandma to lift the table.

Referring to the past, Mrs. Lin said with a smile:

"My Hongqi managed to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law like Meijuan. It's too late for me to pamper you. How could I let you suffer this kind of grievance."

Chen Meijuan quickly picked up a piece of fish for Mrs. Lin:

"Mom, try this piece of meat. It's steamed like jelly. You'll eat it as soon as you suck it."

After speaking, I picked another piece for my mother, Mrs. Chen.

Well, both sides are mothers, so they should be filial with heart.

Shen Baobao was full of emotion, no wonder her mother-in-law was so kind to him, it turned out to be a family inheritance.

what!I will also treat my daughter-in-law better in the future.

Let the family tradition of the Lin family be passed on!
"The tofu soup is here. After drinking the tofu soup, you can almost eat crayfish."

Lin Xu brought two pots of tofu soup exuding a strong umami flavor from a tray in the kitchen and brought it over.

The soup base made of fish bones and fish meat, paired with blanched old tofu, this delicious taste is really irresistible.

"Wow, my cousin's craftsmanship is amazing!"

"When I volunteered for the college entrance examination, I also applied for Central Finance and Economics, and after graduation I became a chef!"

"I also applied, I also applied. After graduation, I went to my cousin's Linji Food to apply for the head chef."

"Are you still the head chef? Pull it off! I added Brother Che on WeChat two days ago, and he said that Lin Kee's management is very strict. Anyone with as good cooking skills as him should be a helper chef. What do you rely on to be a chef?" long?"

What the cousins ​​said made Lin Xu a little speechless.

Che Zai is free to gossip on the Internet, isn't he afraid that one day his cousins ​​will go to the capital to play clubs and die?
Also, Central Finance and Economics really doesn't teach cooking, so don't go astray!

Holding the spoon, Shen Baobao got up and poured a bowl of tofu soup for each of the elders. The relatives of the Lin family were so happy that they all praised Xiaoxu's daughter-in-law for being polite and filial.

If it wasn't for worrying about the soaring blood pressure of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Lin Xu really wanted to take a picture and show them.

Everyone drank the tofu soup and became curious about this soup.

In desperation, Lin Xu told his relatives how to make milk soup tofu.

Soon.

The crayfish in the pot are ready.

He went back to the kitchen and served it on a tray.

Each table has two trays of spicy crayfish and a tray of garlic crayfish.

After the crayfish came up.

Today's meal can be regarded as entering the topic.

Everyone put down their chopsticks, put on disposable gloves one after another, and started eating the crayfish.

"The prawns are delicious!"

Chen Yuanyuan took a bite of the crayfish, her eyes were full of little stars. Recently, she often eats crayfish at the street stalls, but no crayfish is as delicious as her cousin.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"There is actually no trick to this, as long as you are willing to release the material."

Many restaurants make crayfish unpalatable because they use cheap dead shrimp, which taste very different from live shrimp.

In addition, there are some people who are not willing to deep-fry, and the crayfish they make are naturally incomparable with this kind of pre-fried ones.

As for the material, it is also very important.

When frying the ingredients, first stir-fry the red oil with bean paste, add green onion, ginger and dried chili, and stew with beer by the way. After boiling, add a handful of rock sugar. It is not easy to make crayfish taste bad.

The two old people didn't like to eat crayfish very much. They thought it was too troublesome to peel and eat them. Besides, they had almost finished eating. Just as they were about to leave the table, Lin Xu came over with cooked hand-rolled noodles.

"The hand-rolled noodles made by my good grandson are praised on the Internet every day. Today, the old woman finally got it."

"No, many times I wanted Virtue or Meiliang to take me to the capital to taste my grandson's craftsmanship, but I was afraid of causing trouble to them. Now it's all right, my grandson is back."

The two old men scooped the soup of chopped pepper fish head and mixed it with the noodles.

I tasted it and praised it deliciously.

They had already eaten almost, but now they each ate another bowl of noodles, and their appetite was much larger than usual.

After eating and drinking, the two left the table.

Holding Dundun, I went to the small square outside the visitor center to blow the mountain breeze.

As soon as the old people left, the remaining young and middle-aged people completely let go of their hands and feet. They couldn't play with their mobile phones at the moment, so they could only focus on competing with the shrimp shells.

Shi Wenming said while eating:
"Xiao Xu's visit opened up a new way of thinking for me. I plan to serve big fish heads and stew in an iron pot in the restaurant. The main style is the farmhouse style, which is different from the style of several other restaurants."

There are now four places to eat in the scenic area.

In addition to the farm restaurant at the gate, there is also a cliff hotel restaurant on the mountainside, a snack restaurant next to the water park that specializes in cold-skinned pork buns, and a cafeteria at the tent base that costs [-] yuan for all you can eat.

Each restaurant has a different focus.

This will give tourists a better choice.

Lin Hongqi thinks this way of thinking is quite right:

"You can do it as you see it. If you need to rectify it, let me know. I'll help you fix it."

When the crayfish are almost eaten.

Shi Wenming's stewed goose in an iron pot is finally out of the pot.

In order to let everyone eat well, the second aunt Lin Hongxia specially made some cornmeal and pasted some pancakes on the side of the pot.

At this moment, the goose meat has been stewed, and the pancakes have been scorched by the kang. They taste crispy and fragrant, which makes Baby Shen very addicted.

She also ate iron pot stew in the capital.

But they are all too delicate, without the smoke and fire of this kind of wood-fired ground pot.

Eating the delicious pancakes and the savory goose, this city girl even wants to live here for a long time.

After eating and drinking.

Everyone is stuffed.

The cousins ​​who aspired to become chefs in Central Finance and Economics also took off their disposable gloves, took pictures of the leftovers on the table with their mobile phones and sent them to the topic of Lin Kee Food to cheat praise.

"Have you had enough baby?"

Lin Xu raised his hand to wipe off the red oil from the corner of Shen Baobao's mouth, and asked dotingly.

"It's full...every dish is super delicious and delicious, but unfortunately I can't eat it anymore."

Shen Jiayue patted her belly in distress, really wanting to continue eating!

Relatives should wash their hands and wipe their mouths.

After a while of busy work, I sat in the yard and chatted with the mountain breeze.

But Lin Xu couldn't relax.

He has to pickle the fat sheep hanging in the yard quickly, otherwise he won't be able to roast at noon tomorrow.

Shi Wenming was clearing the dining table, but when he saw that he wanted pickled mutton, he quickly followed.

Well, such a rare learning opportunity should not be missed.

Find a large tray on your kitchen worktop and place the whole sheep in it, belly side up.

It can't be marinated yet, so the lamb must be divided first, and the thick part of the meat should be cut, so that the lamb can be marinated and tasty, and it can be roasted thoroughly when roasting.

Use a kitchen knife to divide the entire abdominal cavity of the sheep from top to bottom.

Then use a machete to cut the spine of the sheep once to separate the spine. In this way, the spine will be easily roasted through when roasting, and the fascia of the lamb will not shrink due to heat, causing the body to convulse and deform.

After the backbone is cut, the whole sheep is spread out on the tray.

But it's not over.

Lin Xu took a kitchen knife and separated the meat from the limbs of the sheep. The thick parts of the meat were marked with a flower knife, and the fascia of each joint was cut off by the way, so that the whole sheep was completely spread out on the tray.

This way it can be easily strapped to the grill for baking tomorrow.

After the mutton was divided, Lin Xu began to prepare the supplies for marinating the meat.

Two scallions, two purple onions, one apple, one whole piece of ginger, and a large bowl of garlic. Chop them all up and put them in the bowl, then add a handful of cumin powder, a handful of pepper powder, A handful of five-spice powder, a handful of salt, and half a handful of sugar.

Stir it into a paste with cooking wine, and apply it evenly on the sheep, both inside and out.

"The seasoning is so thick, will it be mushy when it's baked tomorrow?"

Shi Wenming was a little surprised.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"These seasonings are to give the mutton a base flavor, which will be washed off before roasting tomorrow."

If the whole lamb is roasted in the Nang Pit in Northwest China, the seasoning on the smear does not need to be washed off, because the residual temperature of the charcoal used for the Nang Pit barbecue is not an open flame.

The Mongolian-style roasted whole lamb is roasted with charcoal fire. When roasting, it needs to be brushed with oil and honey water, so there should be no seasoning on the surface, otherwise it will be burnt early, and the sheepskin is not crispy or crispy, and the taste is very bad. .

The technique of roasting whole lamb obtained by Lin Xu can be done no matter open fire or naan pit.

But there is no naan pit in the scenic area, and it is not necessary to dig it now, so the Mongolian charcoal grilling method is more suitable.

While he was marinating the mutton, Shen Baobao and his cousins ​​were filming with their mobile phones, ready to continue poisoning under the topic of Linji food.

Under the leadership of Chen Yuanyuan, Zeng Xiaoqi and her colleagues drove to the Cliff Hotel to check in, and by the way, roughly cut the material recorded in the afternoon.

In this way, after recording the mountaintop part tomorrow, the film can be released and sent to the TV station to start the film arrangement and broadcast.

Well, after eating so many things from others, I have to pay back!

After they left.

The elders continued to sit in the courtyard and chat with Liu Zhengyu.

This is an authority in the tourism circle, Chairman Liu still has a great say on how to develop next.

Seeing Liu Zhengyu took out cigarettes for everyone to scatter, Lin Hongqi hurriedly took out the cigars given by Shen Guofu from the house, and distributed one to each of them.

Uncle Chen Meide looked at the letters on it, tried to spell them but couldn't make them out, so he asked curiously:
"This one costs two or three hundred, right?"

Liu Zhengyu looked at it, smiled and said:

"This is a limited edition worldwide. One piece costs at least four figures, and it may not be available for purchase..."

Hearing that it was so expensive, Chen Meide was instantly reluctant to smoke it.

But the second uncle didn't care so much. He took the scissors that he had just used to clean up the crayfish and cut off the head of the cigar, then lit it with a lighter and took a sip:
"Well, it's a nice cigar."

My second uncle used to be rich, and he has a lot of research on tobacco and alcohol.

After Liu Zhengyu lit his cigar, he chatted with everyone.

in the kitchen.

After Lin Xu smeared the lamb inside and out with marinade, he sealed the lamb on a tray with plastic wrap.

Then he opened the refrigerator in the kitchen and stuffed the lamb into it.

Marinated in low temperature refrigeration, the mutton will be kept fresh and tender to the maximum extent.

"Okay, get ready, just remember to eat at noon tomorrow."

Lin Xu said to his cousins ​​while washing his hands.

"Don't worry, cousin, we will arrive early tomorrow morning."

"Yes, if you don't have breakfast tomorrow, you'll be waiting for the mutton."

"What else is there besides mutton, cousin?"

"Let's see what my sister-in-law wants to eat, my brother will definitely do whatever my sister-in-law eats."

Lin Xu fixed his eyes on Shen Baobao:
"It's all said and done, let's talk, is there anything you want to eat? If there is, I will arrange it for you."

Shen Jiayue thought for a while and said:

"I want to eat the dipping sauce you made when you participated in the competition for the first time. Seeing how happy the judges are dipping the mutton, I want to try it too."

Lamb with gravy?

Needless to say, it's really suitable for this season.

Just as he was about to agree, a system notification sounded in his mind:
"The host is obsessed with food exploration, and triggers the reward task [Dipping Mutton]: Please make a dipping lamb that satisfies Shen Jiayue within [-] hours. After completion, reward the excellent snack food—wild vegetable nest."

really……

As long as Baby Shen likes to eat, the reward can be triggered.

But this time the reward is wild vegetables, which is grandma's favorite. You must complete the task and let grandma taste the wild vegetables we made!
After coming out of the kitchen, the courtyard was filled with the smell of cigars.

Lin Xu knew that Baby Shen didn't like the smell, so he said with a smile:

"Why don't we drive to the tent base and accompany you to see the starry sky that I have been thinking about for a long time, what do you think?"

"Okay, okay!"

The two bid farewell to their elders, and asked their mother to take Dundun by the way, and then drove straight along the road in the scenic spot to the mountain depression at the end of the reservoir...

at the same time.

Under Lin Kee Food.

Seeing the video of marinated and roasted whole lamb posted by Lin Xu's cousins, netizens were all greedy.

"This is too cruel (呵念)"

"Sheep are so cute, how can you eat them?"

"Book the tickets, and try to arrive at the scenic spot at noon tomorrow to eat roasted whole lamb!"

"Add me, and I'll go too!"

"..."
