Don't pretend, I'm the God of Cooking and I'll showdown!

In the kitchen, Lin Xu sighed helplessly when he heard his father-in-law praise him so much:

"As far as the father-in-law is concerned, he feels that his son-in-law is the best in the world. It will be a matter of time before the house collapses... Sure enough, he is very popular."

He planned to take advantage of the points to exchange all the basic cooking techniques, so as not to be stabbed by the hardcore assassin, the old man.

The crocodile seller is relatively considerate. He has already turned over the crocodile's intestines and performed a preliminary cleaning.

At this moment, Lin Xu only needs to wash the large intestine of a pig with flour, salt, and cooking oil several times in the same way.

As for the raw explosion part, it needs to be cleaned with baking soda to increase the crispness of the crocodile intestines.

After everything was packed, Lin Xu started to make.

Take out the crocodile oil soaked in water, cut it into mahjong pieces and put it in the frying pan, then put the pan on the stove, add a bowl of water and start boiling.

The routine of boiling animal fat is basically the same.

Cut into large pieces, put them in a pot and add water to boil, let the water slowly evaporate, and at the same time let the fat in the fat block slowly boil out.

When the water is completely dried, the oil has also been boiled out of fragrance.

"Yeah, what is this?"

Baby Shen found out that when he went out to drink water, there was already a frying pan on the stove, and it was still full of white fat lumps from the crocodile.

"It's boiling crocodile oil. You can try the oil residue of crocodile oil later. It should be better than lard residue."

Crocodile is not as greasy as lard, and it is rich in umami. The taste should be a combination of lard and chicken oil, with umami and fragrance.

Stir-frying vegetables with this kind of fat, not to mention crocodile meat, even a handful of the most common vegetables can also whet the appetite.

The process of boiling crocodile oil is relatively long and relatively safe, so Lin Xu handed over the job to Shen Baobao:
"Call me when these oil residues are fried into golden yellow. If you don't arrive, just wait. Don't worry, these oils will only become more fragrant as they are boiled, and they won't spoil."

Although it is enough to boil the crocodile oil and just keep it, there is no need to do anything else.

But it gave Shen Baobao a strong sense of participation.

She even specially took a small video of the busy kitchen and sent it to the group.

"Today, Xu Bao and I will make a whole crocodile feast together. If I have a chance, I will treat everyone to it!"

Not long after the group posted, Chen Yan, who had just washed the crocodile lungs and liver, said:
"So am I working in vain? This whole crocodile feast is also due to me. If you don't add my name, I will never end with you young couple!"

Lin Xu, who just moved the whole crocodile back to the workbench, was immediately happy.

It's not about writing some advanced academic papers, so why do you two get your qualifications like this?

Use a cutting board to pad the back of the crocodile, first cut the thick part of the meat, and remove the tenderloin and outer tenderloin, so that the big bones can be cooked easily.

The tenderloin and tenderloin can also be used for stir-frying or deep-frying.

After picking off the excess meat, Lin Xu grabbed the bone cutter and chopped the backbone into large pieces, then washed it with clean water, and was ready to cook the big bone with sauce.

These large bones can actually be used to make soup.

But now that we have decided to use the tip of the tail to make soup, making soup dishes is a bit repetitive, so let’s just make it with sauce and big bones, so that the old man can experience the deliciousness of his hometown again.

Put a large wok on the shelf, pour a little cooking oil into the pan, use a spoon to scoop up a few pieces of crocodile fat that is being boiled, and add half a spoonful of lard at the end.

Heat the oil, add green onion, ginger, garlic and dried chili to fry until fragrant, add two tablespoons of Northeastern miso, stir fry until fragrant, add water, dark soy sauce and rock sugar, and then put the bones in.

Wait until the soup in the pot boils and pour it into the pressure cooker.

Add a few star anise, a few bay leaves, and a piece of cinnamon, then cover the pot and stew directly.

The miso is relatively salty, so there is no need to adjust the taste. Use a pressure cooker to press it for about an hour. After the meat in the pot is stewed until it is rotten, it can be made out of the pot.

Then Lin Xu used the steps of making rock sugar elbows, frying the slightly smaller front paws of the crocodile, cooking them until they were broken, and then using another pressure cooker to start stewing.

Like the big bone, this front paw needs to be pressed for about an hour, so that the skin is crispy and the meat is rotten, and the marinade is like glue.

As for the hind paws, Lin Xu planned to chop them into large pieces and roast them in braised sauce.

But it’s still too early to cook braised in soy sauce, so he has to cook the tip of the tail first to satisfy the ladies’ demand for collagen.

Fill the earthen pot for soup with mountain spring water, boil it on high heat first, then put in the tail tip that has been washed and cut into large pieces, then add Codonopsis pilosula, astragalus root, Cordyceps sinensis, green onion and ginger, salt, rock sugar, and cover Cover and cook on low heat on the stove.

When Lin Xu was busy in the back kitchen, there were more and more relatives in the living room.

I just had a big dinner at Lin Kee yesterday. Everyone lacked appetite, but I didn't expect to have a whole crocodile feast today, which made the relatives look forward to the dinner.

"It is said that the whole body of a crocodile is full of treasures. Let's try it today to see if this crocodile is as good as the legends say."

With a cigar in his mouth, Shen Guofu was full of confidence in his son-in-law's craftsmanship.

I was even a little curious about whether the crocodile I bought today was big enough to meet everyone's meat-eating requirements.

After all, a ninety-pound crocodile may not seem small, but after removing the skin and internal organs, and then removing the bones, there is not much meat left.

"Guofu, stop thinking about eating meat, and eat some vegetarian food."

Mrs. Han, the new cat slave, hugged Dundun and warned her son-in-law seriously.

After Lin Kee Gourmet reopened, my son-in-law has been thinking about eating meat all day long, and the stomach that has been reduced in the past few days has a tendency to bulge out again.

If things go on like this, let alone lose weight, you will gain weight to new heights.

Shen Guofu said to his mother-in-law:

"You are vegetarian, you are vegetarian. Just now I saw that Xiaoxu asked sister Liu to send out some bean curd sticks. I really want to make stewed bean curd sticks with pork belly. Isn't this a vegetarian dish?"

Old lady Han: "..."

Why don't you say that the green onion in it is also a vegetarian dish?
When I was young, my family was not well-off, so if I was craving meat, I would be craving meat. Why do I still like meat so much now?
If he wants to eat more, it will be a matter of time before San Gao comes to his door.

Han Shuzhen took some small dried fish for Dundun, and said while feeding the little guy:
"From tomorrow onwards, you are not allowed to go to the store for dinner at night, and you will go home honestly and eat a fat-reducing meal for me, and I will let you eat it after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

These words froze the smile on Shen Guofu's face.

The happy old Shen also turned into a melancholy old Shen.

Can't eat meat again?
He didn't dare to disobey his wife's order, so he could only try his best to fight for his rights:
"That would require me to eat low-fat dishes such as winter melon stuffed meat and spicy shredded chicken. In addition, Xiaoxu's grilled dried fish, I also have to eat less every day, as well as wine..."

Han Shuzhen's eyes slanted:
"Still want to drink?"

Shen Guofu immediately counseled:
"Red wine, not to mention that a glass of red wine before going to bed is good for your health. When the time comes, you drink fruit vinegar and I drink red wine. Let's all be healthy, okay?"

Seeing her husband's cowardly look, Han Shuzhen couldn't help being happy:
"Haggle like a child all day long, just drink what you want, but you can't just buy food, don't make me a bunch of appetizers before going to bed."

"No, no, how can I hide food like Yueyue?"

Baby Shen in the kitchen:? ? ? ? ? ?
Originally, I wanted to secretly give Dad some crystal elbows and crystal skin jelly.

Now it's all right, the elbow and skin jelly are all gone.

Boss Shen, Boss Shen, accept this stage of labor reform honestly, I will often send food to comfort you in the family group!
Now the crocodile meat is ready.

Lin Xu stood in front of the workbench, earnestly chopping the stuffing made of crocodile tenderloin and crocodile belly.

The crocodile meat is tender and fresh, and it is naturally suitable for some meatball dishes.

What Lin Xu is going to do now is to cook raw crocodile balls. There are even vegetables and soup. Those who are not used to the herbal Weijian soup can also taste the ball soup.

The recipe for this soup is not complicated.

After the minced meat is chopped, add ginger juice and onion ginger water, and then pour in some pepper water.

Add salt, light soy sauce, and cooking wine.Egg white, then add some green onion ginger water and Chinese prickly ash water, first stir evenly, then grasp the meat stuffing and beat it vigorously, so that the meat stuffing will produce gelatin during the beating.

When the meatballs are boiled in this way, the meat fillings will stick together.

"Wow, it looks very similar to the clay I played with when I was a child. Can we try to throw it a few times?"

Lin Xu glanced at the nail polish smeared on Baby Shen's nails and the manicure stuck to his sister-in-law's fingers, and shook his head to reject their request to participate.

Don't surprise your relatives by sticking your manicure into the mincemeat.

This kind of hard work is more suitable for me.

Seeing that the two helpers were a bit idle at the moment, he ordered:
"Why don't you two peel the garlic and prepare it in a small pot. I think the garlic sauce at home is almost finished. I will fry some more later, and make a crocodile belly with garlic."

After dismissing the senior Shen Baobao and his aunt, Lin Xu beat it for a while, and when the meat was completely sticky to his hands, he poured in a little starch water made from sweet potato starch, and stirred the meat again.

To make raw boiled meatballs, you need to add an appropriate amount of starch water to the meat filling, which can effectively prevent the meatballs from falling apart and not form a ball, and at the same time increase the chewiness of the meatballs.

Stir the meat filling and set aside to marinate.

Taking advantage of this time, he boiled a pot of water and scalded the crocodile's head inside and out.

After scalding, tear off a layer of white mucous membrane from the mouth. This layer of membrane cannot be eaten and must be torn off, otherwise the dishes will be full of fishy smell.

Clean up the mouth, use a knife to mark the inside and outside of the mouth with a knife, and then pour the fried chopped peppers to marinate the meat skin and the meat on the neck.

Except for a layer of skin on the outside, the crocodile head is not very edible. The main reason is that it looks domineering and attractive, so everyone likes it.

In fact, for those who really know how to eat, stewing soup is more cost-effective.

After the crocodile head was marinated, it was placed on a plate, and then brought to the steamer for steaming. Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xu boiled a pot of water on the stove.

After the water boils, turn off the fire, let the water temperature in the pot drop to [-] or [-] degrees, then turn on the fire again, turn the heat on the stove to the minimum, and keep the water in the pot in the state of shrimp eye water.

This is the most suitable temperature for cooking boiled ingredients.

Dishes such as boiled shrimp, boiled snail slices, boiled small octopus, etc. are all cooked in water at this temperature.

This water temperature can keep the ingredients fresh while keeping their freshness.

The raw boiled meatballs that Lin Xu is making now have the same requirements for the water temperature.

Put the marinated minced meat in front of the stove, beat it a few times with your hands, let the minced meat get glued and hardened again, then dip your left hand in water, grab the minced meat a few times, and release the air in the minced meat.

Then loosen the tiger's mouth part of the left hand, and squeeze it gently, so that the minced meat that has just been grasped several times is squeezed out from the tiger's mouth.

When squeezed into a cylindrical state, take a ceramic spoon in your right hand and dip it in water, and gently dig in the position of the tiger's mouth with your left hand, and a small round ball will be formed.

Carefully put the balls into the pot along the side of the pot, then continue to squeeze the meat filling and dig out the balls.

"Wow, Xu Bao, I want to learn this?"

Shen Jiayue, who was peeling garlic, was immediately attracted when she saw this scene.

Squeeze lightly with your left hand, dig with a spoon in your right hand, and a round meatball is made. It's like a magic show.

Lin Xu said:

"This is not easy to learn, it's a bit out of class for you."

"Oh, that's great..."

Chen Yan asked unwillingly:

"It's a little bit beyond the outline, how much is it beyond?"

I am a beautiful cook who can even make frozen custard, fruit cheese, if it is a little bit super-class, this is just a challenge.

After all, the beautiful cook must have the courage to step out of her comfort zone!
Lin Xu still admires his sister-in-law's spirit of daring to challenge herself.

But in cooking, the more this kind of person who likes to go ahead without hesitation, the easier it is to get burned or chop his own hands when chopping meat...

Forget it, don't increase the workload of the medical unit.

Lin Xu said:

"It's equivalent to the calculation of linear equations in ternary by a first-year elementary school student. You two should save yourself, this is not something novices can learn."

There was half of the minced meat left in the basin, so Lin Xu stopped.

He boiled the fire on the stove and cooked the meatballs, which can effectively prevent the meat in the meatballs from being caught raw.

Soon, the water in the pot boiled.

Use a spoon to skim off the floating foam in the pot, cook for another two minutes, and the meatballs are ready.

While the meatballs were cooking, he brought a small pot, put shrimp skins and seaweed in the pot, and then put some white pepper and salt.

After putting it away, hold the pot with the meatballs in it, and pour the meatballs and water into the basin.

Soon, the delicious smell wafted out of the pot.

Cover the pot and serve it directly to the dining table. This can not only keep warm, but also simmer the umami flavor from the seaweed in the soup, making the soup more vivid.

After finishing all this work, Lin Xu brought over the remaining minced meat, along with half a bowl of steamed meat powder.

Knead the meat stuffing into balls, roll them in the tamales, make the surface of the balls covered with tamales, and then place them on a plate.

All the meat fillings are used up, and a plate full of round meatballs is just made, so that after steaming in the steamer, it will be steamed crocodile balls.

Not long after, the dishes began to be cooked one after another.

Braised crocodile legs in brown sauce, crocodile claws in rock sugar, steamed crocodile with garlic vermicelli, crocodile belly in stewed bean curd sticks, fried crocodile intestines, salt and pepper crocodile steak, dry-stir-fried crocodile intestines, stir-fried crocodile liver, spicy crocodile lungs, boiled crocodile meat, overlord crocodile head, Crocodile steak in black bean sauce, boiled crocodile tenderloin, dried crocodile skin, black pepper crocodile fillet, raw crocodile balls, steamed crocodile balls, crocodile tail soup with dangshen and astragalus...

There are more than [-] dishes, and the portions are quite large, making relatives and friends hungry immediately.

"Thank you elders for coming. This whole crocodile banquet was completed by Xu Bao and Yan Bao together. If you have any comments, you can put forward them. We will continue to improve next time we do it."

Shen Baobao delivered a pre-dinner speech like a chef.

The relatives quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in their hands and applauded.

Although we all know that the two of them are just making soy sauce in the kitchen, making soy sauce is also doing work. Among the relatives present, only these two girls are willing to enter the kitchen.

The other cousins ​​are so spoiled that they even want the nanny to tie their shoelaces for them.

With such a comparison, Shen Baobao and Chen Yan immediately won a wave of praise.

Chen Yan's mother, Shen Guofang, couldn't help but praise her daughter:
"At noon today, our Xiaoyan steamed egg custard for the old lady, made skin jelly, and made watermelon cheese and peach cheese after dinner, which made the old lady very happy."

This praise made Mr. Chen, who had always been disliked, grab Baobao Shen's hand.

Haha, I didn't expect that I would be praised one day, and finally I was no longer the background board of my cousin.

When she was excited, Shen Guofang said again:
"You say that my Xiaoyan is so beautiful and virtuous, and she hasn't lost money in the past two years, so why can't she find a partner? Everyone is worrying about it. She will be thirty soon, and she won't get married and become an old girl. "

Chen Yan: "..."

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Can't you let me enjoy the food in peace?

In order to change the subject, Chen Yan got up and opened the covered dishes one by one.

Every time one is opened, the shock on the faces of the relatives increases.

No way, these dishes are so beautiful, delicious and delicious, each with its own characteristics, no matter how it looks or tastes, they are all very attractive.

Shen Guofu grinned happily to the ears:

"Xiao Xu is really hiding it. Fortunately, I bought a crocodile this time. Otherwise, this child might not be able to hide it for a long time."

Lin Xu smiled wryly, and immediately began to pour wine for the elders.

Hurry up and eat, lest the old man, a die-hard fan, make any more messes.

Everyone raised their chopsticks and started eating.

"Oh, this crocodile's legs are full of gelatin, which is more delicious than elbow skin."

"This soup is so delicious, I never thought it was made from the crocodile tail."

"This crocodile meat tastes really fresh. It's a bit like a bullfrog, but it's more fragrant than bullfrog meat."

"It's delicious, it's so delicious, Xiaoxu's craftsmanship is really incredible!"

"Next time we have a chance, let's eat crocodile. This meat is really good to eat, especially the crocodile skin, which is full of gelatin. If you eat more, it will feel good for your skin."

"..."

We ate and chatted.

Everyone ate very happily, even Shen Guofu was completely absorbed in the competition with the dishes, and even forgot to drink the wine.

While eating, Han Shuzhen asked:
"Xiaoxu, then all the big crocodiles are used up?"

"No, there's almost half of the meat left. I'm going to bring it to the store tomorrow for the employees to try it out."

"Okay, take it away, so that your father-in-law won't worry about it."

Shen Guofu:? ? ? ? ?

I'm not thinking about it, are you thinking about it?

Thinking of his wife's love of collagen-rich food, Shen Guofu felt that the "reeducation through labor period" could open up a breakthrough in this respect.

But how to break through, the son-in-law will have to figure out a way.

Well, my super invincible son-in-law is the most powerful, and he doesn't have to worry about any ingredients in his hands.

Xiao Xu, it's up to you whether Dad can eat meat later!

When the Shen family's villa was feasting and drinking, the business of Lin Kee Gourmet Store also ushered in an evening peak.

The boss is not here today, so the employees in the management have become proactive, for fear that there will be deviations or mistakes in the business they are responsible for.

At the door of the kitchen, when Wei Qian was busy checking the dishes, Song Tiantian appeared at the door.

"Master Wei, can you come out for a while?"

Wei Gan walked out of the kitchen and asked curiously:

"What's the matter, Tiantian? Is there anything at the front desk?"

"It's not the front desk, I have something to do."

"what's up?"

Song Tiantian whispered a little coyly:

"I heard that there are hooligans harassing girls at night. Today I work late. Master Wei, can you take me off on a shared bicycle after get off work? I'm afraid..."

Wei Gan:? ? ? ? ? ?

You're scared?
What are you afraid of?
Are you afraid that you won't be able to restrain yourself from punching the little hooligan to death?
