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

Chapter 703 Shen Jiayue: Ho Ho!The core technology of cooking has been mastered by me! 【Subscribe】

"The small granules on the outside of the lychees are so delicious."

Shen Jiayue picked up a simplified version of lychee fish covered with red crispy grains and took a bite. She thought the taste would be mediocre, but she didn't expect those red crispy grains to be more fragrant and crunchy than expected.

The fish inside is tender and delicious, and there are crunchy pieces of horseshoe in the middle, which is very enjoyable to eat.

Chen Yan said:

"Although I know it's fish balls, but with these small red particles, it seems to be more delicious."

The taste becomes more diverse, coupled with psychological effects, it will naturally feel delicious.

Lin Xu tasted the authentic lychee fish. The crispy charred shell was full of fresh and tender fish meat. No matter the taste or taste, it was quite enjoyable.

"Xu Bao, can you teach me how to make this lychee fish?"

Shen Jiayue ate two balls, which strengthened her desire to study.

Lin Xu said:

"Don't call it lychee fish, let's call it lychee fish ball or lychee fish ball. This is very simple. I will teach you later, and you can make it with an air fryer."

In front of Qiu Yaozu, it is somewhat inappropriate to say "lychee fish" on the left and "lychee fish" on the right.

After all, using opportunistic methods to make the appearance surpass the genuine ones is somewhat disrespectful to the Huaiyang cuisine master, so he changed his name to avoid old man Qiu's displeasure.

Shen Jiayue didn't have so many thoughts. When she heard the name of Lychee Fish Ball, she immediately liked it:

"The name is good, lychee fish balls. It is both high-end and high-grade, and it perfectly expresses the selling point. In the future, I will not only make lychee fish balls, but also lychee shrimp balls, lychee chicken balls, and lychee pig balls..."

Qiu Yaozu was very satisfied with the name change, he said with a smile:

"Yue girl, you are a layman. Under normal circumstances, if there is chicken in the name of the dish, it will be changed to phoenix, such as lychee phoenix ball, and pig will be changed to meat, called lychee meat ball..."

In Huaiyang cuisine, naming is also a matter of knowledge. In high-end names, low-end ingredients will be avoided. In addition, the word pig used to avoid the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, so it was directly changed to meat balls.

Upon hearing these names, Shen Jiayue said with a smile:

"Thank you Uncle Qiu, I know how to name it now."

At this moment, Guo Xinghai came over, he tasted two dishes, and affirmed Lin Xu's way of using red crisps:

"With such an arrangement, I'm afraid there will be a large number of new concept dishes featuring lychees in the future."

Lin Xu smiled:

"It's already there, I just extended it a bit."

Guo Jichang put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a paper towel:

"Xiaoxu can make lychee fish so well, so maybe lychee meat is also a problem... If you have time, let's make sweet and sour pork. Let me see what new surprises you can bring."

The development of cuisines has always been a process of learning from fusion. Cantonese cuisine has a lot of shadows of Huaiyang cuisine, and if you can cook Huaiyang cuisine, Cantonese cuisine is naturally no problem.

Guo Jichang really guessed right.

After acquiring local Shunde cuisine, Lin Xu has indeed mastered Cantonese cuisine.

He smiled and said:

"Okay, I hope Guo Bo will give you more advice then."

It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Although he was in a hurry to take another dish, Lin Xu was worried that the two elderly people would not be able to hold on, so he did not continue.

Everyone packed up the shooting equipment in a hurry, Lin Xu looked at Guo Jichang and Qiu Yaozu and said:
"Why don't we go to Lin Kee for dinner today? By the way, check the food in our store."

Guo Jichang said:
"Okay, when Xinghai came, he was still talking about going to Lin Ji's kitchen to say hello."

Qiu Yaozu didn't want to go back and forth at first, but he felt that if he didn't go, Lao Guo might reach some secret agreement with Lin Xu, so he said:

"Okay, I'll change clothes, let's go together."

When the two old people went to eat, they naturally had to find someone to accompany them.

While Qiu Yaozu was going back to the upstairs bedroom to change clothes, Lin Xu called Geng Lishan and invited him to the store for dinner.

"Lin Xiaoyou, Professor Tian and Professor Ren and I just came out of Peking University. How about we go to the store together?"

Professor Tian and Professor Ren are here?
That's great. To entertain a master of Huaiyang cuisine like Qiu Yaozu, gourmets are not good enough. After all, the cultural heritage of Huaiyang cuisine is too deep.

It would be perfect if two experts in ancient Chinese were added.

When Qiu Yaozu talked about food, Geng Lishan took over and talked about the culture behind the food. The two professors could participate in the discussion.

This match is just right.

Lin Xu said:

"Then I would like to trouble Professor Tian and Professor Ren to come with me. I learned a new dish of lychee fish today. Everyone should try it."

Since you invite people to eat in the store, you must show sincerity.

And the greatest sincerity is naturally food.

The lychee fish dish is too cumbersome to make, and now most Huaiyang cuisine restaurants do not serve it, so upon hearing this dish, Geng Lishan immediately said:
"Then let's get there as soon as possible, so as not to miss the time."

After hanging up the phone, Qiu Yaozu also took the elevator down from upstairs. He changed into casual clothes and said with a smile:

"Let's go, let's go now."

A group of people came to the door and were just about to get in the car when an Alpha business car drove over.

The car door opened, and He Guangchang poked his head out from inside:

"Oh, what are you doing here?"

Guo Jichang said:
"Go to Xiaoxu's shop for dinner, Lao He, why are you here at this hour?"

"What can I do, let's eat... Since I'm going to Lin Xu's place, I will go too. I haven't tasted Xiao Xu's craftsmanship for a long time."

Qiu Yaozu was amused by the straightforward words:
"Next time, if you don't bring some tea or something, don't even think about entering our house. If you come to eat all day, your family will be poor."

Everyone got in their cars and drove back.

Shen Jiayue hugged Dundun and sat in Chen Yan's car, while Guo Xinghai and Hao Qingfeng got into Lin Xu's car.

As soon as he got in the car, Guo Xinghai said:

"When will the state banquet documentary start? Can I show my face then?"

Lin Xu started the car, put it in gear, and slowly followed behind Chen Yan's Panamera:

"Okay, let sister Xiaoqi plan it. Not only will you show your face, but Wei Gan and Huo Yifan should also make a scene. There are not many such opportunities, so we must seize them."

It's fine if you don't participate in other programs, but the filming of the state banquet documentary may be such an opportunity, so you have to seize it.

When he came to the store, Lin Xu led a few old people around the kitchen to guide everyone's cooking skills, and introduced the dishes in the store by the way.

Seeing Cantonese dishes one after another, Guo Jichang, who was still in the mood of eating, drinking and having fun, finally felt the sudden flustered feeling that Qiu Yaozu had before.

Roast suckling pig, roast goose, roast pig, pigeon, pork ribs in black bean sauce, chicken feet in black bean sauce, steamed sea bass, white sliced ​​chicken, boiled shrimp, salt baked chicken...

Good guy, those who didn't know thought that their restaurant had opened a branch in the capital.

He Guangchang is not sensitive to these things. Seeing so many Cantonese dishes, he laughed and poured a spoonful of oil on the fire:

"Hey, there are so many Cantonese dishes, and they are so popular in the north. I have to go back to Yangcheng to open a branch, and it's not enough to hang up the hotel in Yangcheng... Oh, I forgot, Lao Guo, your hotel is also in Yangcheng , that’s okay, let Xiao Xu go to Xiangjiang to open a branch instead of going to Yangcheng.”

Guo Jichang: "..."

I figured it out, Lao He, you came here this time either to take advantage of Lao Qiu or to bury me. This is obviously to fan the flames.

In order to prevent the old man from saying anything excessive, Guo Jichang said:
"Old He, I plan to shoot some cooking-related videos with Xiao Xu in the past two days. If you have nothing to do, let's shoot together, so that everyone can get to know the boss of Building No. [-]."

Upon hearing this, He Guangchang immediately became happy.

He waited for a long time, just waiting for the two old men to invite him to shoot a video with Lin Xu, and now he has been laying the groundwork for a long time, and finally reached a satisfactory result.

Ever since I watched Lao Qiu and Lin Xu make a video together two days ago, I've been thinking about this.

Not long after, Geng Lishan and the others also arrived.

Everyone greeted for a while, and went to the banquet hall upstairs. After the waiter brought the lo mei and some cold dishes, everyone raised their chopsticks and began to taste.

Downstairs, Guo Xinghai greeted everyone in the kitchen, while Lin Xu started cooking in front of the stove.

The dishes are made one after another and brought upstairs for everyone to taste.

In the small kitchen next to her, Shen Jiayue rolled up her sleeves, looked at the small packet of red crisps sent by Che Zai and asked:
"Is this the small particles that can be fried?"

"This is called red crispy grains, and it usually sticks to the outside when making red fried dishes. It should be the ingredients that the boss uses today."

Just returned to the store, Shen Jiayue was free and planned to cook by herself, anyway, it's not that difficult, as long as there are those small particles, it is possible to make lychee dishes that look like real ones.

So she asked Che Zai to go to the warehouse to get a bag.

But because I didn't know the name, I described it with gestures for a while, and showed Che Zai the photo of the lychee fish ball I took earlier.

Seeing these small red granules now, Shen Jiayue immediately felt the small granules in her hands, and I felt like I had them in the world.

She knew that she was not good at basic skills, so she didn't do it directly, but asked the back kitchen to prepare some meat fillings for making wontons.

Fresh pork is mixed with shrimp paste and lotus root, mixed together, and some starch is added to roll into small balls, which become meatballs one by one.

Roll the meatballs on top of the red crisps, and there will be a lychee that makes it difficult to distinguish between real and fake.

In order to make it look better, Shen Jiayue deliberately rubbed it a few more times with her hands before sticking the red brittle, until it became a standard small ball.

Not to mention eating such meatballs, even just by looking at the appearance, it is very appetizing.

While busy with work, Chen Yan walked in:
"Yueyue, what are you doing? It's dinner upstairs, don't you plan to eat?"

After Chen Yan finished handling the company's affairs, she was going to go upstairs to have dinner with her parents-in-law, but when she found that Shen Jiayue hadn't gone, she planned to see what was going on.

A group of old men had dinner, and she was a little embarrassed to be the only young man, so she had to take a back seat.

However, as soon as I came to the small kitchen, I was attracted by the red meatballs in front of me:
"Wow, so beautiful, did you make this?"

"Yes, it's so simple, as long as you have a hand, do you want to try it?"

Hmph, we can finally say this too, it's really enjoyable.

Chen Yan immediately rolled up her sleeves and began to wash her hands:
"How did you do it? Teach me, just as my father-in-law and mother-in-law are eating upstairs, let me show it."

Shen Jiayue said:
"It's very simple. Ask the kitchen to make some wonton fillings and bring them over. I'll add some starch and shrimp puree to stir, then knead them into balls and roll them on top of the red crisps. Isn't it very simple?"

"Don't you need seasoning?"

"The stuffing is prepared, just make it directly."

Chen Yan:? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Co-authoring, you are just using your hands, without any technical content at all.

She was a little disappointed. She originally thought that she could learn a real skill, but she didn't expect that all the most difficult steps would be handed over to others. Is this simply opportunistic?

Shen Jiayue glanced at her:
"Just say do you want to show off your cooking skills in front of your mother-in-law?"

"miss you!"

"Why don't you hurry up and learn?"

Chen Yan immediately put away her thoughts, and rubbed the meatballs together with Shen Jiayue.

Without Lin Xu present, the two of them did not dare to use the frying pan for fear of being scalded, so they directly used the air fryer, adjusted the temperature, put the meatballs covered with red crispy one by one into the pan, and started frying.

In order to prevent frying, the two also opened and adjusted many times.

When the meatballs were about cooked, Shen Jiayue took one out of the air fryer and put it in a bowl, then handed it to Chen Yan and said:

"Yan Bao, you can taste whether it is done or not. When it is done, you can bring it upstairs for everyone to taste."

"Why don't you taste it?"

"I am the master, how can there be a reason why the master tastes the food?"

Chen Yan felt that this was reasonable, but after thinking about it, she felt that something was wrong:
"You can't even grasp the familiarity, what kind of master should you be?"

The two were talking when Lin Xu walked in:
"I didn't see you two when I went upstairs for dinner, what are you doing?"

Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"I made lychee meat balls and wanted Yan Bao to taste whether they were cooked or not, but she refused."

"Nonsense, what if you eat raw meat and your stomach hurts?"

Lin Xu didn't expect the two to be so anxious. He walked over, looked at the meatballs in the bowl, and rolled them again:
"It feels light and light, and it is probably already cooked."

In order to verify his guess, he picked up the meatballs in the bowl and broke them apart with his hands. They were filled with pink meat fillings and delicious flavors.

"It is indeed cooked, ready to be cooked."

Lin Xu put half of the meatballs into his mouth, and fed the other half to Shen Jiayue.

The meat filling is salty and delicious, and the minced lotus root inside adds to the texture, while the shrimp paste not only adds a strong umami taste to the meatballs, but also makes the meatballs a little softer.

With the red crispy grains on the outside, it is quite delicious.

"Wow, this tastes really good, I really am a genius in cooking!"

Shen Jiayue was overjoyed by her genius idea, poured the meatballs from the air fryer into a plate, and handed it to Chen Yan:
"Disciple, serve the master!"

"Go away, half of this is made by me."

Chen Yan took it, picked one up with chopsticks and tasted it, it tasted really good.

I can finally show off my culinary skills in front of my parents-in-law. Haha, I really want to record it so that netizens can listen to the praises of cultural scholars. All kinds of quotations are like ready-made papers.

She put down her chopsticks and was about to go upstairs when Lin Xu asked:
"That's it? This kind of creative dish needs to be put on the plate... Che Zai, bring me some mint leaves."

Arrangement?

Chen Yan didn't expect such a beautiful meatball to be placed on a plate.

But let's put it on, let's see what flowers we can put out.

Shen Jiayue said from the side:
"Don't underestimate the presentation of the plate. This is the core culinary skill of Michelin restaurants, and it takes a lot of money to learn."

Lin Xu smiled. Although she was a little bit sarcastic, the girl was right.

I heard that in the scoring criteria of Michelin restaurants, the aspect of appearance is very high, so all Michelin restaurants at home and abroad put great effort into the presentation of the dishes, just to get a high score.

From a certain point of view, the plate arrangement in the Michelin system has the same effect as "technology is based on changing the shell".

Soon, Che Zai brought a small basket of freshly washed mint leaves.

Lin Xu took it over, took a plate again, scalded it with hot water to make the plate slightly hot, and then wiped off the water with kitchen paper.

Place a few lychee meatballs on one side of the plate, and next to the meatballs, place a few verdant mint leaves.

The green leaves not only set off the meatballs more beautifully, but also make these meatballs look like freshly picked lychees, with a higher degree of simulation.

Then, Lin Xu placed a few more clusters on the plate, which looked like they had picked a few bunches of washed lychees, which could arouse people's curiosity at once.

"Wow, this is completely indistinguishable from the real thing!"

Shen Jiayue took a few photos with her mobile phone, feeling as if she had mastered the core secrets of cooking.

And Chen Yan also changed from being indifferent at the beginning to being shocked.

The freshly fried meatballs are already like lychees, but with a few mint leaves, they immediately become real lychees, and people can't help but want to pick one up and peel it off to taste.

"Let everyone taste it at the end of the building. When you want to make it later, don't just think about meat. You can also make sweets, such as yam paste, taro paste, etc. It is more convenient and easier to operate."

While there's nothing dangerous about using an air fryer, it's better to play it safe and avoid cooking meat.

Relatively speaking, sweets are simpler and safer. If you want any fillings, just ask the pastry department to send some, and then you can knead them into small balls and wrap them in red crispy grains for frying.

When Shen Jiayue heard it, she looked at Chen Yan in surprise:
"Wow, why didn't I think of that? I'll make it later, haha, I'll make a big table of lychees of various flavors for you to enjoy."

"I'll try it too. My mother-in-law likes to eat purple potatoes. I'll see if I can make some purple potato stuffed balls."

After the two went upstairs with the plates, Lin Xu tidied up the small kitchen, then came to the big kitchen, saw that the eel meat steamed in the steamer was fully cooked, he took it out and put it on the ceramic plate where Dundun ate. .

After drying it for a while, it was about no longer hot, and then I carried it downstairs.

At this time, Dundun was lying on the small roof and fell asleep.

A scent that seemed to be there came, and the little fat cat woke up instantly. It got up and opened its eyes. When it saw Lin Xu approaching with a plate, it let out a soft cry:
"Meow~~~~"

Lin Xu raised his hand and rubbed its big head:

"Didn't you enjoy eating at Grandpa Qiu's house in the afternoon? I steamed some eel meat, let's eat it quickly."

"Meow~~~"

Dundun agreed, bowed his head and started cooking.

At this moment, Fu Jie, dressed in high-end clothes, stepped into the store...
