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

Chapter 326 Hurry up, help me up and try!Super easy recipe for drunk crab! 【Ask monthly ticket】

Seeing his junior brother, Xie Baomin showed a look of desolation on his face.

He pointed to his legs and said:

"I want to exercise, but I almost became a Tieguai Li...don't listen to the exercise student's fitness advice, that's not fitness, it's suicide!"

so bleak?

Lin Xu also forgot about going to the stewed food department, and helped Xie Baomin to sit on the temporary seat beside the stairs for people to rest:

"Don't get excited, don't get excited, take a break first..."

After speaking, he turned his face to look at Xie Yufei and asked:
"What's going on with your dad?"

"Uncle said that the most fat-burning way in the gym is the battle rope, that is, throwing a big rope. The calories consumed in a few minutes are more than half an hour of jogging. My dad wanted to try it, but he couldn't swing it well and fell to the ground..."

battle rope?

You really know how to choose.

This thing seems to be very simple, just like the big rope skipping that I played with the neighbor's children when I was young, just swing two ropes back and forth.

But the difficulty is very high.

Because the professional battle rope is very heavy, and the length is generally more than ten meters or even twenty meters, it needs to mobilize the strength of the whole body to swing it up.

This is actually not difficult, the difficult thing is that after being thrown up, the whole rope will form a huge pulling force under the action of inertia.

This force is swift and direct, and if one is unprepared or under-prepared, it is easy to be brought down.

This is the reason why the battle rope can quickly burn fat. When swinging, the muscles of the whole body must not only be mobilized to shake the rope like waves, but also have to resist the pulling force from the rope.

If you are not careful, the rope will fall out of your hand, or simply be brought down by inertia.

The reason why Lin Xu knows this thing very well is that when he was in college, he had experienced the power of battle ropes in the school equipment room.

That time, I almost fell to the ground by the rope. Fortunately, I often play basketball and have good physical fitness, so I barely managed to hold on.

Seeing the miserable appearance of his senior brother, Lin Xu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, weak chickens are really not suitable for this kind of dangerous fitness program.

Xie Baomin rubbed his legs and said in frustration:

"Fortunately, Building No. [-] has not received missions recently, otherwise, the leaders will definitely give me a holiday with this limping appearance..."

Have a holiday?

Isn't this a good thing?
As a migrant worker, you should feel happy, brother.

Lin Xu said:

"There are dim sum made by me upstairs, brother, why don't you go upstairs and rest, just in time to try my handicrafts."

Xie Baomin waved his hand:
"Let my sister-in-law take the child up to eat, I won't go up, just get me something to eat later, my leg hurts so much, I don't want to bother anymore."

Su Peipei took out a tissue, wiped the sweat off her husband's face and said:
"Didn't you check it in the hospital just now? It's just a strained ligament. It's not a serious problem. It will be fine after two days of rest... Why are you getting more and more delicate?"

Xie Baomin smiled:

"Aren't you used to it?"

Tsk, it's all like this, let's stop spreading dog food, shall we?
Lin Xu said:

"The hairy crabs are being steamed upstairs. They are all of the highest quality, or..."

He was just about to say that after steaming it later, he would take some of them down for his senior to try something new, but Xie Baomin stretched out his arm to Dachun:
"The doctor is right. Right now, I need to move slowly to let the ligaments recover. It's not good to sit all the time. Dachun, help me up and try to walk a few more steps..."

Just now he was in a fractured posture, but now he stood up again on his own initiative.

Brother, brother, aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will clean you up at night?
He helped Xie Baomin into the elevator, and when he got upstairs, the head chef who needed help just now could even walk independently.

The effect of crab legs is really outstanding.

Lin Xu went downstairs again and walked around the marinade department. Today's roast chicken should not worry about selling.

Although it is impossible for the neighbors to eat roast chicken every day, they can help bring the goods.

Many nearby residents were brought by Amway to buy roast chicken.

Not only roast chicken, but also other braised dishes of Lam Kee are also the purchase targets of these residents.

Buy some stewed chicken, pour a glass of white wine and eat it happily. This is the most beautiful enjoyment of the holiday.

While checking the remaining ingredients in the marinade department, Lin Xu saw the golden cup delivered by Lao Huang driving up and parked firmly in the parking space in front of the store.

The car door opened, and Lao Huang, who was wearing a baseball cap, came down, took out two cardboard boxes from the trunk, locked the car door, stacked the two cardboard boxes together, and strode towards the door of the store.

Lin Xu hurried out and opened the door for him:

"welcome."

Old Huang stepped in and walked in:

"A box of four cans, a can of two and a half catties of Huadiao, twenty catties of Huadiao, is that enough for you?"

This is definitely enough, even the Huadiao wine that the old man came back from Yinzhou to eat with crabs.

Lin Xu said:

"I'm a little embarrassed to bring so many flower carvings for a meal of crabs."

Old Huang laughed:
"Don't be embarrassed, it's fine to cook steam pot chicken twice when you're fine later. It's getting colder and colder in the future, so I'll just rely on chicken soup to drive away the cold."

If you want to say this, there is absolutely no problem.

"I see that Lao Xie's car is parked outside, he is here too, right?"

Lin Xu took a cardboard box and carried it upstairs together:
"My brother's family and his brother-in-law are all here, and we are going to have dinner together."

"Hey, I didn't know that Lao Xie had a brother-in-law. Then I will have a drink with him later, and so does Lao Xie. I haven't known that he has a brother-in-law for so long."

Come upstairs.

Lao Huang greeted Zeng Xiaoqi, then looked at Xie Baomin who was walking around the kitchen and asked:
"Why are you limping?"

"I sprained my foot... Don't you say that this Huadiao is gone? Why is it there again? Gou Ri didn't say a word of truth."

Lao Huang is probably afraid of being prostituted by his senior brother and Dai Jianli.

So some ingredients that are in short supply are announced to be gone.

"I dug it out from the warehouse. I wanted to keep it for myself to taste slowly, but since your junior brother wanted it, I pulled it all at once."

"Tsk, it's really good to use the word brain."

Xie Baomin patted Lao Huang on the shoulder, pointed to Cui Qingyuan who was chatting with Geng Lele not far away, and said:
"That's Professor Cui from Tsinghua University, hurry up and say hello, all the hairy crabs here are sponsored by Professor Cui."

As soon as Lao Huang heard it, he knew that this was to help him expand his network.

He knew Professor Cui, and at the last Geng Lele Enrollment Banquet, this elegant professor even spoke on stage.

But there were so many people at that time that we didn't bother to chat.

Since there is such a good opportunity today, it is necessary to get to know each other.

Lao Huang is in the business of high-end food ingredients. This kind of business pays the most attention to contacts, because the customers are all people of certain social status, and ordinary publicity will not be effective.

Only through the introduction of acquaintances can we make those potential customers.

When Lao Huang went to say hello, Lin Xu and Che Zai moved the Huadiao wine into the kitchen.

Open the carton, and there are black pottery pots sealed with wax inside.

From the packaging, it can be seen that the price of this flower carving will not be too low, otherwise it will not be able to earn back the packaging money.

The date is stamped on the wax, it was brewed in 06.

Although I don't know if this stamp is real or not, the packaging alone is pretty good.

Scrape off the wax with a knife, open the lid, and a unique fragrance of Huadiao floats out from inside.

"Boss, this wine tastes no different from ordinary rice wine."

Che Zai smelled it, and wondered if he had been pitted by Lao Huang.

He is now in charge of purchasing, but there are a bunch of knowledgeable chefs in the back kitchen. He is afraid that he will be disgusted by his colleagues if he purchases low-quality ingredients.

Lin Xu said:

"Warm up the rice wine to let the aroma of the wine and some miscellaneous smells escape."

At this moment, the crabs in the steamer are almost steamed, so let's warm up the wine and prepare to eat.

He took half a pot of water and put it on the stove. When it was over [-] degrees, he turned the fire to a small fire, put the pottery pot filled with flower carvings into the pot, and started to scald the wine.

Under normal circumstances, boil a pot of water to [-] degrees, then turn off the fire, and put the container of wine in it.

But today's black pottery pots are obviously a bit thick, the thermal conductivity is not very good, and the amount is quite large, so it needs to be boiled for a while.

Compared with white wine, rice wine is slightly rough in craftsmanship, and some miscellaneous flavors will be produced during the production process. Blanch it before drinking, and the wine will have a stronger aroma.

Moreover, when wine is brewed, a small amount of methanol will inevitably be produced.

Boil it like this to let the highly volatile methanol evaporate, making it healthier to drink.

In fact, the sobering step in red wine also has a similar effect.

As the temperature in the clay pot rises, the aroma of rice wine will soon waft out.

After the wine was hot, Zhu Yong opened the steamer and brought out the steamed red crabs.

"Let's have dinner!"

The people who were looking forward to eating crabs heard the call and immediately surrounded them.

A pot of hairy ginger vinegar, if you like to eat ginger, you can put it from the bottom, if you don't like ginger, you can put some vinegar directly, anyway, the ginger has a strong flavor, it is most suitable as a dipping sauce for crabs.

In order not to disturb the ladies eating crabs, the drinking men set up a separate table.

Lin Xu brought over the hot rice wine, placed several wine bowls one by one, and started pouring the wine with the clay pot in his arms.

Cui Qingyuan sitting next to him took a deep breath:

"The aroma of this Huadiao is so mellow, it's a good wine, Boss Huang."

Lao Huang took the crab to uncover the belly, and the fat in the crab roe immediately flowed down. He sucked it and said:
"If Professor Cui likes it, one day I will pass by Tsinghua University and deliver a box to you."

Xie Baomin kicked him at the side:
"Don't you just say it's gone?"

Old Huang laughed dryly:

"There's only a little left in the warehouse, and I'll get you a box later, but don't tell me at Diaoyutai that those chefs are like wolves, they even want to grab the purple potatoes I bought..."

Cui Qingyuan asked curiously:

"What's there to grab, is it because of the good quality?"

Xie Baomin shook his head:
"It's more delicious to eat for free."

After he finished speaking, he picked up a crab and was about to untie the rope when he suddenly remembered what he said when he entered the store and said that he didn't want to see the rope again today, so he couldn't help smiling.

I can't talk too much in the future.

Otherwise, you will be slapped in the face in minutes.

Fortunately, Dachun didn't eat at this table, otherwise this guy might say something.

Everyone ate crabs and chatted, and occasionally took a sip of the mellow Huadiao in the wine bowl, which was very pleasant.

After eating a few crabs, Lin Xu had passed his addiction to crabs.

He went back to the kitchen to make a piece of Yangzhou fried rice, and when he was about to eat it, he was robbed by a certain gangster surnamed Shen:
"Why do they all eat delicious food, but I can't eat meat?"

Lin Xu: "..."

Is there a possibility that you don't know how to eat crabs?
He asked curiously:

"I see that there are swimming crabs in the refrigerator in the villa. How do you eat them when you are at home?"

"Aunt Liu picked out the meat. She poked the crab leg and the meat came out. I tried it just now... and the crab leg broke into the meat."

"Then I'll take one apart for you."

"Okay, okay!"

Seeing his baby nodding in a hurry, Lin Xu smiled helplessly.

Wait for this sentence for a long time, right?

In the past, Lin Xu's crab-eating skills were so-so, but after acquiring the drunken crab technique, there was also a small skill in removing crabs. He quickly removed all the meat from a crab.

The crab meat was put into the fried rice that Baby Shen was eating, and the crab shell was rebuilt into a crab.

It’s not time for dinner yet, Lin Xu is free, so he disassembled a few crabs, and by the way, formed the shells of the crabs into Transformers, Masked Superman, Predator, etc., watching Xie Baomin’s two sons. shocked.

After Baby Shen ate to his heart's content, Lin Xu made himself another fried rice.

After finishing the fried rice, he began to prepare the ingredients and condiments needed to make drunk crab.

Drunken crab is a dish with a high status in the local cuisine. Whether it is served with wine or porridge, a piece of drunk crab with tender meat and delicious taste is definitely the best partner.

Of course, this is true for people in the Yangtze River Delta region.

But for foreigners, if they rashly eat this kind of drunk crab marinated with raw crab, there is a high probability of diarrhea symptoms.

Raw pickled dishes, no matter the drunk shrimp and crab in the local cuisine, or the Chaoshan raw pickled dishes known as poison, are a great test for the stomach.

Not a native born and bred local, would not recommend trying.

The practice of drunken crab is very simple. Wash fresh crabs, put them in high-strength white wine to get drunk, and then put them in drunken marinade after cleaning.

The so-called drunken marinade is made by blending Huadiao wine with rock sugar, light soy sauce and spices.

There are not many ingredients for the sauce. In addition to ginger and garlic, star anise, fragrant leaves, tangerine peel, and pepper are also needed. Among them, tangerine peel can effectively remove the fishy smell, and the slight bitterness can make the crab taste more fresh and sweet.

As for other spices, the amount is not much, mainly to make the drunken bittern have a light spice smell.

If there are too many, the aroma of the crab itself will be suppressed.

If you don't let it go, it will easily produce fishy smell.

In fact, in the Yangtze River Delta region, it is easy to buy drunken brine for making drunken shrimp and drunken crab. The main ingredients are also these kinds.

After preparing the spices, ginger and garlic, Lin Xu began to prepare the seasoning.

The seasoning used for drunk crab is very simple, that is soy sauce and rock sugar.

Light soy sauce can increase the aroma and saltiness of soy sauce, while rock sugar can increase freshness and preserve freshness, and can effectively prevent the possibility of spoilage in drunken bittern.

There are dozens of drunk crabs to be made today, so naturally more seasonings are used.

Lin Xu brought four whole bottles of soy sauce and a large bowl of rock sugar.

Then put a clean stainless steel pot on the stove, pour in soy sauce rock sugar, add sliced ​​ginger and various spices, first boil on high heat, then turn to low heat to cook.

After the rock sugar is boiled, it can be poured out and brought to the refrigerator for cooling.

This step is very similar to the sauce used to make pickled cucumbers.

However, the sauce of drunk crab is lighter, which is more in line with the seasoning characteristics of the Yangtze River Delta region. Soy sauce is used for flavor and a lot of sugar is added, so the soup presents a rich sweet and salty taste.

While the sauce is cooling, scrub the remaining crabs with a brush.

When making drunk crabs, the crab shells must be cleaned, otherwise even the locals will get upset after eating them.

Put the washed crabs into a deeper basin, and then pour a whole bottle of high-quality liquor.

After pouring, quickly cover the lid, and cover the lid tightly with a heavy object to prevent the crabs in the pot from opening.

This step is actually a drunk crab.

Soak in high-grade white wine to make the crab drunk and spit out the dirt in the stomach. While cleaning the crab, it can also make a preliminary marinade in the crab meat.

In the process of making drunk crabs, this step is essential.

And white wine must be high-alcohol, the higher the alcohol content, the more thoroughly drunk the crabs will be, and the better the drunk crabs will be.

After fifteen minutes, the crabs in the basin stopped moving.

Open the lid, and the crabs inside have basically been turned over.

The originally clear white wine at the bottom of the pelvis became cloudy.

Take out these crabs that are still slightly twitching, and wash them again with clean water.

The reason why it is called Tao is that these crabs cannot be washed for a long time, otherwise the white wine marinated in the meat will be lost, and the work will be in vain.

After washing, wipe the crabs with kitchen paper and set aside for later use.

The boiled soy sauce had almost cooled down at this moment, so Lin Xu brought a medium-sized glass jar that was washed clean and free of raw water, and started to marinate.

Put the dried crabs into the jar one by one, pour in the cooled sauce, and add two cans of Huadiao wine into it.

In order to make the taste better, Lin Xu added another half bottle of wine to it.

Wine can make the aroma of the wine more mellow, and the crab tastes more delicious.

After this step is done, cover the lid and seal it tightly, and move the jar to the cold room of the cold storage. After a few days, these drunk crabs can be opened and eaten.

When moving from the kitchen to the cold storage, Cui Qingyuan, who was obviously drunk, took a photo with his mobile phone and sent it to Moments:

"There are too many crabs to finish. Fortunately, Boss Lin knows how to cook drunk crabs. After three or four days, they will be delicious."

Sending this message is to tell Yan Lin that the crabs given are not spoiled and will be eaten up.

Yan Lin, who was planning to have dinner with a client in Shanghai, immediately looked at the secretary and asked:

"What is my itinerary for the next three or four days?"

The secretary pushed his glasses, then took a look at a delicate notebook, and read:
"Depart for Yangcheng the day after tomorrow to participate in an expo, stop by Shenzhen, inspect the market there, and then fly to Hainan..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Yan Lin:

"cancelled."

"what?"

The secretary was a little unresponsive:
"Mr. Yan, which stop will be canceled?"

"Cancel all of them! The day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, arrange for me to go to the capital and contact Mr. Shen to see if he is in the capital. If he is, I plan to discuss some cooperation with him."

This?
The secretary was a little surprised.

Why is Mr. Yan running to the capital all the time recently?

After Yan Lin finished speaking, she picked up her mobile phone and looked at the pictures in Moments.

I spent money to buy crabs, and after I finished them, I stopped by to eat two drunk crabs, isn't that reasonable?
Thinking of Lin Kee's delicacy, Dundun's naive look unconsciously appeared in her mind, and she didn't know how the little fat cat was doing recently.

"Before you go, help me choose a gift for Dundun. Don't you know the store manager? Talk to her and ask what Dundun likes."

Not long after, Shu Yun, who was savoring the steamed crab, received the news.

What does Dundun like?
Reminiscent of how she was sitting on the piano bench when she was filming the video today, she responded with a message:

"Steinway Grand Piano!"
