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

"Wow, this meat is too delicious!"

Shen Jiayue put a piece of meat into her mouth, and found that the ruddy piece of meat was so rotten that it melted in the mouth, especially the fat inside, it felt as if the butter melted as soon as she put it in her mouth.

I thought it was a large piece of meat like braised pork Dongpo meat, but after eating it, I found that this braised pork is even more rotten and more fragrant.

Only sweet bean sauce is used for seasoning, so the aroma of the meat itself is fully stimulated, and the mouth is full of the aroma of pork.

In addition, the stewed fat is also very fragrant. When eating, dip the meat in the fat deliberately, which will have unexpected effects.

After eating two pieces of meat, Shen's meat addiction was finally cured.

"I feel that this meat goes well with rice. It tastes delicious and enjoyable. Xu Bao, can I learn this dish?"

Shen Jiayue wants to learn something when she encounters delicious food. It would be even better if she can make it with a rice cooker, and she can completely claim the title of the god of small household appliances.

Lin Xu shook his head and said:

"This dish is too difficult, so forget it."

If it is braised pork or something like that, Baby Shen can experience the joy of cooking in a rice cooker, but braised pork is not good, as this dish requires too much cooking.

Too little of those sweet bean sauces won’t taste good enough, and too much will make the meat sour.

And the cooking time must be well grasped. If the fat in the meat is not stewed out early, it will taste greasy. If it is cooked late, all the fat will come out, and the taste will be dry and sticky.

Relatively speaking, the lazy version of braised pork and Dongpo pork are more suitable for this girl.

There is no difficulty, and it saves time and effort. Once the ingredients are put in, you don’t need to worry about anything. It is easier than cooking in an air fryer.

Shen Jiayue pouted:
"But I also want to try making a meat dish."

"I'll teach you the lazy version of Dongpo pork later on. It's easier to learn than this one, and it looks better."

From Dongpo Pork to Braised Pork in Red Sauce, to the more common Bazi Pork, Pork Pork, and Pork Pork in the North, the cooking methods are not very different.

As long as you want to learn, you can still learn.

Upon hearing this, a smile bloomed on Shen Jiayue's fair face again:
"Okay, okay, this year's Spring Festival, I'm going to cook a big meal for my family!"

Chen Yan on the side pouted:
"Just don't let the whole family accompany you to eat pot gaba... Speaking of which, you are going to Yinzhou for the New Year, what should I do if I want to give my grandma a New Year's greeting?"

"Then you go too. No one cares about the fireworks in the mountains, so we can be lively and lively then."

Chen Yan was also a little moved, and wanted to sing and dance around the campfire.

But thinking about Ren Jie having to work overtime during the Chinese New Year, he dismissed this idea and stayed in the capital to accompany his parents and mother-in-law.

Lin Xu tasted two bites of meat, and immediately began to discuss with Dou Wenjing about the Spring Festival vacation.

"Ziqiang Shengjian and the company will be on holiday from the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. They will go to work on the eighth day of the first lunar month, and the stores will be closed in rotation. If there are not enough staff, they will recruit again. We must let everyone go home."

During the Spring Festival, the business of street snack bars such as Ziqiang Shengjian will deteriorate. Instead of guarding it, it is better to take the holiday and let the employees go back to celebrate the New Year.

The same is true for the company. Anyway, the publicity that should be done has been done well, so there is no need to stay overtime.

There are only stores, and business should be good during the Spring Festival, so we need to keep the doors open to maintain business.

In addition, reservations for the New Year's Eve dinner in the store have also started, and now all the private rooms, including the banquet hall, have been booked out on New Year's Eve.

The store also opened a door-to-door service for New Year's Eve dinner.

Within the scope of Haidian, the store will deliver meals to customers who have booked New Year’s Eve dinner free of charge, and arrange all the dishes properly, so that customers can taste Lin Kee’s New Year’s Eve dinner without leaving home.

In addition, Lin Kee also welcomes customers who are unable to go home for the New Year. Go to the Lin Kee lobby to participate in the group annual meeting. As long as you pay a share, you can eat and drink, and celebrate the New Year with a group of customers who are strangers in a foreign land .

Lin Xu said to Shu Yun:
"The reunion dinner in the lobby should be richer. We can't always think about making money, but also provide customers with humanistic care."

"Okay boss, I will do well."

Chen Yan looked at Shu Yun and asked:

"When are you going back to your hometown, Baby Shu?"

Shu Yun grabbed the rice in the bowl and said with a smile:

"I'm not planning to go back. Anyway, the first day of going back will be a bit more lively. From the second day on, the elders will start helping Zhang Luo on blind dates. It's like rushing to the market. I'm tired of it."

It seems that girls over 25 years old go back to their hometown for the New Year, and they cannot avoid blind dates, marriage urges and similar fates.

In the eyes of the elders, no matter how much money they earn and how much they achieve, they have to get married when they reach the marriageable age. Even if they find someone to marry, they cannot be single.

Once you insist on being single, your parents and elders will come up with their own set of rhetoric, what can't hold up their heads in the village, what can be pointed out by others.

It's like doing something outrageous.

The few women around me who are working hard in the capital, no matter Dou Wenjing, Shu Yun, or Zeng Xiaoqi, will almost always encounter this situation when they return to their hometown.

So Dou Wenjing will not go back to celebrate the New Year this year, and stay in the capital to manage the store with Shu Yun.

And Shu Yun is also planning to pack some lo-mei and other delicacies and deliver them to his home after the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, and he is not going to go back and go on a blind date.

After a year of busy work, what I want to do most when I return to my hometown is to relax, not to go on a blind date like a rush, which makes me more tired than going to work.

On the contrary, Zeng Xiaoqi, who is in love, has been as proud as a peacock these two days, and plans to go back to her hometown to feel proud.

Leaving the singles not only means that you have a partner, but in the eyes of the elders, it is also a manifestation of reforming the evil and returning to the right, which is worthy of praise and encouragement by sending lucky money.

Chen Yan said:

"I can't escape being urged to marry in the capital. The countryside is relatively more traditional, and it is more normal to be urged to marry. No matter how hard you work, buying a house in the capital will not be a problem."

Although buying a house in the capital city cannot escape the fate of being urged to marry, at least the people in my hometown will tell their daughters without meeting anyone.

Even if you are looking for a partner, you must also have a house in the capital.

The range is reduced a lot at once, at least it can be clean.

The next morning, Lin Xu didn't go to work, but was at home playing with the white striped duck that Lao Huang had sent him, preparing to make camellia oil duck.

"So many ducks?"

Shen Jiayue looked at the hundred ducks that Lao Huang had sent, and felt that the kitchen had become a sea of ​​ducks.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"When Che Zai comes to deliver the crock of salted duck, you remember to go downstairs and open the door for him, so you don't get stuck."

"Okay, hey, are these two big pots tea oil? It smells so good."

The main ingredients of camellia oil duck are tea oil and duck. Lao Huang just sent it over, along with a few big fat geese that had been slaughtered.

Lin Xu is busy cleaning up the ducks now.

Although these ducks are all slaughtered, there will be some congestion and residual lymphatic tissue in the abdominal cavity, which needs to be cleaned up.

In addition, the skin film on the surface of duck feathers and duck webs has not been torn clean, so they have to be cleaned one by one.

After it's all cleaned up, put salt on it, and then find a place to press it with a stone slab.

It is hard to find stone slabs at home, but there are plenty of barbell plates. Shen Guofu bought some fitness equipment and sent them over. Those heavy barbell plates can be used as stone slabs.

Well, this can be regarded as unlocking the correct usage of fitness equipment.

While he was busy, Shen Guofu suddenly called:
"Xiao Xu, why didn't you and Yue Yue come to the store?"

"Today I'm going to make camellia oil duck at home, and the duck has just arrived."

Upon hearing this, Shen Guofu immediately said:

"Then your mother-in-law and I will help now."

After speaking, he hung up the phone over there.

Lin Xu smiled wryly, what can I do to help?
Could it be that the father-in-law wants to eat meat, so he came to the house deliberately under the banner of helping?
But when you use the barbell to press the duck later, you can ask your father-in-law to help.

The duck needs to find a place to press it for two days. Lin Xu originally planned to go upstairs to get a wooden plank to support it, but it was too troublesome to think about it, and it was easy to overturn.

So he was going to mess around in the kitchen.

The island in the center of the kitchen is relatively large, and a hundred ducks can easily be placed there.

There is also a pool on the roundabout. Later, a circle can be placed around the roundabout to divert the squeezed blood into the pool in the middle.

Lin Xu cleaned up all the ducks, then picked up a kitchen knife, and cut all the ducks open from the back like dried ducks.

In this way, it is not only convenient to lay flat when pressing, but also saves space when it is turned back into the vat for marinating.

While busy, Shen Guofu and Han Shuzhen walked in with some fruits.

The couple were shocked to see a kitchen duck.

But Han Shuzhen was surprised, and the smile on Shen Guofu's face never stopped.

"There are so many ducks, how many meals do you have to eat?"

As soon as Shen Jiayue heard this, she knew what her father was thinking, and she couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water:
"These ducks need to be marinated for four months before they can be eaten. From now on, at least it will be around May [-]st. Dad, are you very disappointed?"

Shen Guofu opened his mouth and laughed twice:

"I don't have anything to be disappointed about. I can eat it anytime...By the way, the soy sauce duck and air-dried duck I made in the previous paragraph are almost edible, right?"

Tea oil duck can’t be eaten, so the duck that was cooked before should be fine to eat, right?
Lin Xu said:

"You can eat it, why don't you cook it at home at noon today, just try the difference between air-dried duck and soy sauce duck."

Duck with soy sauce is generally eaten steamed, so as to preserve the aroma of the duck itself and the flavor of soy sauce to the maximum extent.

There are many ways to eat air-dried duck. It can be stewed in soup, stewed with bamboo shoots like pickled Duxian, steamed, or boiled and cut into pieces for frying.

Shen Guofu swallowed his saliva, and saw that there were a few geese beside him. Just as he said to stew the geese, he saw his daughter-in-law glance at him, and hurriedly said:

"One soy sauce duck and one air-dried duck are enough, don't make the goose Xiaoxu, you can't finish it."

Lin Xu said:

"I'm going to make these geese into air-dried geese, and I can take them out anytime I want to eat them in the future."

"Okay, that's fine."

Cut all the ducks from the back, control the water first, and then dig out the large grains of sea salt that Lao Huang sent last time, and prepare to start rubbing salt for the ducks.

When marinating meat ingredients, it is best not to use the fine salt that is usually eaten at home.

Because the saltiness of fine salt is too high and the dehydration is too strong, it will make the pickled ingredients have a slight bitter taste.

Instead, use large grains of sea salt, which has a richer umami taste and a suitable saltiness.

And when scrubbing, it also has a better hand feel.

He poured the salt into the basin, and Shen Guofu and Han Shuzhen also started to help.

Lao Shen was responsible for drying the water on the surface of the duck so that Lin Xu could rub the salt more easily, while Han Shuzhen spread the salted duck on the central island in the kitchen.

At this time, it was covered with boards made of bamboo strips, which could allow the squeezed blood to flow out smoothly, and it was also surrounded by plastic boards.

The squeezed blood can only flow into the central pool.

Relatively speaking, it is hygienic and convenient.

"Mom, when these ducks are placed with the skin facing up, don't overlap each other, just put them next to each other."

Han Shuzhen promised:
"Ok."

Shen Jiayue was holding a camera at the side and kept shooting videos.

Although this video was released at least around May [-]st, the material should be preserved.

At that time, the title will directly say that the duck was made in 120 days, which will definitely attract attention.

Lin Xu carried a duck that had wiped off the surface moisture, and rubbed the inside and outside of the duck with large grains of sea salt, and rubbed the head and neck of the duck by the way.

The surface of the rubbed duck was still covered with salt grains. Han Shuzhen took it and placed it on the island with the skin facing up. The neck and head of the duck were placed around the body of the duck, which can save space to the greatest extent.

Right at the moment, Che Zai brought a few door-to-door delivery masters to deliver water tanks.

Shen Jiayue put down the camera and went downstairs to help everyone open the door.

When I got home, I asked these masters to carry the water tank to the utility room upstairs, and paid double the moving fee.

After all, it is an additional requirement, and the people who contribute are not to be blamed.

After moving up, Che Zai took the initiative to go upstairs again, carefully cleaned the water tank, and then went downstairs to the kitchen to help salt the ducks.

"Boss, won't these ducks spoil if soaked in tea oil?"

"No, it will be completely sealed with tea oil, and it will be stored for a long time. The tea oil will also soak into the inside of the duck, making the duck taste better."

Lin Xu briefly explained the principle of this kind of pickling, which is actually similar to air-dried meat.

However, air-dried meat is pickled and hung in a ventilated place to dry naturally, while tea oil duck is directly sealed in tea oil, which is relatively more oily in taste.

This approach is not in line with the diet of modern people, but it is fragrant enough.

This alone made Shen Guofu full of expectations.

It is marinated in tea oil for four months, not to mention the duck, just marinate a piece of pig tail casually, and the taste will never be bad.

There were more and more ducks on the island platform. In order to prevent the mother-in-law from being confused, Lin Xu asked Han Shuzhen to wipe the water on the surface of the ducks, Shen Guofu and Che Zai rubbed the salt, and he himself arranged the ducks neatly.

After all the one hundred ducks were scrubbed clean, he and Che Zai lifted the large chopping board next to them and put the whole thing on the ducks.

Then move the barbell over and carefully place it on the chopping board.

When placing them, pay attention to balance and not stack them together, otherwise the cutting board is easy to roll over.

When the barbell is dropped, it may damage the floor tiles in the kitchen. If it is next to it, it may cause other accidents.

As soon as the barbell was put on, the ducks stacked together began to ooze blood.

Continue to press, put all the barbell plates up, and even hear the gurgling sound of blood flowing in the duck pile.

"It feels like within two days, the taste of these ducks will become firmer."

Shen Guofu licked his lips. He, a big boss worth billions, suddenly started working in the kitchen, and felt that everything was quite novel.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"The purpose of marinating is to remove moisture to increase the taste, and to prevent the tea oil from rotting and spoiling... These tea oils have to be boiled later. You can't use raw oil, you have to use cooked oil."

The aroma of cooked oil is stronger, and at the same time, it does not have the strange smell of tea seeds, which is more in line with the eating habits of modern people.

After finishing all this, it was almost noon.

Because Che Zai was in charge of the purchases in the store, he didn't stay for dinner, but Chen Yan, who heard that he was cooking duck with soy sauce today, brought Xiao Wei Xiaosui and drove over for dinner.

"Why didn't sister Xiaoqi come?"

Shen Jiayue turned off the camera, intending to copy the video data to the computer later, and then shoot again after two days of marinating, and then wait for the editing to be updated four months later.

Chen Yan said:

"I went downstairs with my boyfriend to eat stewed stew. Last time I said that I couldn't get used to these heavy-tasting snacks in the capital. Now that I have a partner, I immediately become an old Yanjing person, and my speech is full of childish accents. It's really hypocritical."

Xiaowei hugged Dundun, looking at everything in Lin Xu's house, she felt so novel.

The million-dollar piano in the living room was given to Dundun by Mr. Yan, and the small billiard table on the other side of the living room was also played by Dundun.

There is even Dundun's own room upstairs, he is really not as good as a cat.

Lin Xu brought a soy sauce duck and an air-dried duck from upstairs.

Wash the air-dried duck with hot water, then cut it with a knife, put it in the pot and blanch it first, and then start to simmer.

When stewing, put green bamboo shoots in it to increase the umami taste of the soup.

As for the louver knot and the like, soak it first, and it is not too late to put it when it is about to come out of the pot.

The air-dried duck was stewed for about an hour. Lin Xu washed the duck with soy sauce in hot water, then placed it on a plate, sent it to the steamer, and started steaming.

Duck with soy sauce is the same as pork with soy sauce. You don’t need to put anything into it when making it, and you don’t even need to change the knife.

When the air-dried duck in the pot is about to come out of the pot, the soy sauce duck is almost finished steaming.

Lin Xu opened the steamer, and immediately a strong smell of soy sauce and duck came out of the steamer.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

"Just for this taste, I have to eat two bowls of rice today."

"I also eat two bowls, this duck is so delicious."

Lin Xu took out the duck, and there was a thick layer of soup on the bottom of the plate, which was the sauce and fat steamed from the duck.

He chopped the duck and poured the steamed fat on the duck. The whole duck immediately became delicious, and the aroma of soy sauce became even stronger.

In the pot on the side, the mellow aroma of air-dried duck and the umami taste of bamboo shoots also whet people's appetite.

Put the two ducks on the dining table, and put a piece of steamed meat with soy sauce and some stir-fried vegetables, and the Lin family's lunch officially began.

Shen Guofu was not in a hurry to eat, but glanced greedily at the hundred ducks piled up in the kitchen. After four months, he would be able to realize the freedom of duck meat.

But aren't these one hundred ducks too few?

Or... two hundred more?
