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

Chapter 768 After working hard all day and night, I finally finished the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall... golden soup! 【Subscribe】

"Xu Bao, do Buddha Jump over the Wall really need eighteen kinds of ingredients?"

During lunch, Shen Jiayue curiously asked such a question. According to the information she checked on the Internet, Buddha Jumping over the Wall implies eighteen arhats, so eighteen kinds of ingredients must be used to make it.

Lin Xu ate the fried noodles made by Wei Gan with garlic cloves:
"Nothing, Buddha Jumping Wall was originally called Fushouquan. In Fuzhou dialect, it sounds a bit like Buddha Jumping Wall. In addition, this meaning is very good, so it has been inherited. It has nothing to do with Eighteen Arhats, and there is no need to emphasize eighteen kinds of ingredients. Basically What's the use of it."

It's just a dish, but Chinese people always like to add some sayings to it.

If you can catch the gods, you can rub the gods, if you don’t have the gods, you can rub against the emperor, and if you don’t have the gods, you can rub against the emperor. If you can’t beat the gods, you can rub against the emperor.

Buddhism in China abstains from eating meat and killing animals. You make a pure meat dish and say that it implies eighteen arhats. Isn’t this clearly trying to provoke Buddhism?

Thanks to Shakyamuni's inability to appear, otherwise he would definitely give a big blow to those who blindly follow his enthusiasm.

Shen Jiayue didn't eat fried noodles, but cooked some swallow silk herself.

She likes this kind of shredded pork that can be eaten as noodles after being boiled. If the method is not too complicated, she even wants to eat it every day.

"What are you doing this afternoon, Xu Bao?"

"Continue to watch in the small kitchen, and change the water for those dry products that are wet. It's hot, so they don't go bad."

These things seem simple, but they can't be done carelessly.

For example, sea cucumbers should not see any oil flakes during the hair-raising process, otherwise they will start to rot. In order to prevent the oil flakes on the fried tendon, fish maw and other ingredients from sticking to the sea cucumbers, you need to change the water for the sea cucumbers first, and then go to work. Other ingredients.

In addition, I have to prepare some minced chicken in the afternoon to sweep the boiled milk soup.

After sweeping the soup, you have to put in the prepared ingredients for the second soup.

It's a hassle, but it's all worth it for the deliciousness.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, after dinner, Lin Xu opened the lotus leaf that was covering the mouth of the jar, took a long-handled spoon and stirred it several times.

This is done to allow the collagen and nutrients in the meat to completely melt into the soup.

"Wow, this soup is so thick and white."

Shen Jiayue glanced at the side, and found that the soup inside was both thick and very white, like milk.

I thought the soup was ready, but unexpectedly, after Lin Xu finished stirring, he turned up the heat again, making the thick soup in the jar boil again.

After cooking like this for about ten minutes, seal the mouth of the altar with lotus leaves, lower the fire slightly, and continue cooking.

"Isn't it over?"

"Stay for another hour, and then sweep the soup. I guess I'll be late after get off work today. If you're tired, you can take Dundun home early. I'm at least nine o'clock."

When Shen Jiayue heard this, she felt that instead of waiting here, she might as well take Dundun back to play games.

Thinking of this she said:
"Then let's go back first... It happens that Yan Bao won't be coming home tonight, how about I let her stay at our house?"

"Okay, you can look at the arrangement."

Shen Jiayue went out briskly, and after discussing with Chen Yan, she prepared to leave work early.

In the small kitchen, Lin Xu began to prepare minced meat.

This kind of clear soup needs to be swept at least four times to achieve the effect of clear soup color, and the four times of sweeping soup requires a lot of minced chicken, and it is conservatively estimated that it will take more than half a pot.

He beat pieces of chicken breast into minced meat with scallion and ginger water, and cleaned off the fascia wrapped around the knife head many times during the process.

After the minced meat was ready, I found a large pot suitable for sweeping the soup. By the way, I put gauze on the large colander to make a filter that one person can fish out the minced meat.

Everything is ready, and the time has almost passed, let's get started!
He called Wei Gan, and the two of them poured all the soup and minced meat in the jar into the prepared cauldron.

"Damn, this milk soup looks really comfortable."

Wei Gan sighed in admiration, thinking that it would be a waste to make such a good milk soup into clear soup.

But thinking about the waste and cumbersomeness of this kind of dishes, it is normal to toss about it, because the more it is like this, the more it can highlight your worth.

After pouring out all the soup, Lin Xu first used a colander to fish out all the minced meat and bones inside.

When scooping it up, you need to control the soup on the top before pouring it into the basin. These milk soups are hard-won, and the whole Buddha jumps over the wall depends on these soups, so cherish them.

Clean up the residue, bring a bucket, cover it with multiple layers of gauze, scoop the soup in the pot into it and filter it, the gauze will soon be covered with residue and minced meat.

After filtering this time, wash the pot and pour the soup in the bucket back into the pot.

Filter when pouring.

After doing all this, the temperature of the soup has dropped. Lin Xu scooped up the beaten chicken and poured it into the pot, and began to sweep the soup.

When the soup needs to be cleaned at [-] or [-] degrees, add the minced chicken and slowly heat it to [-] degrees. After the minced meat absorbs the free protein in the soup, a thick layer of foam will form on the surface of the soup.

As long as these bubbles are taken out, it is considered a success in cleaning the soup.

Lin Xu cooked it over and over again. After the fourth time, the soup had turned into a light brown color. It looked a little yellow in the pot, but it was clear enough that even the bottom of the pot could be seen clearly.

At this point, the sweeping soup is officially over.

Wei Gan, who was holding hands at the side, looked at the soup and said with a smile:

"If Chef Dai was here, he would definitely fool you into making boiled cabbage or chickpeas."

To tell the truth, it feels a bit violent to make such a good clear soup intentionally boiled later.

But this is how food comes about. Without these repeated steps, the taste of the soup will not be perfect, and this Buddha jumping over the wall cannot become the ceiling of Chinese food.

Lin Xu put the blanched ham, pork belly and other ingredients into the jar, added a small basket of broken tendons, and finally poured a catty and a half of rice wine.

Stir well, put a lighter on the mouth of the altar, and the blue flame will burn instantly.

No matter what kind of dish, as long as rice wine or cooking wine is put in, the alcohol should evaporate before covering the pot, otherwise the dish will tend to have a sour taste.

Especially dishes with soup will be more obvious.

After the alcohol at the mouth of the jar was completely burned, Lin Xu turned on the fire and boiled the broth in the jar. After boiling for a few minutes, he covered it with new lotus leaves, two layers.

Just adjust the fire on the stove to the minimum, and then you can cook slowly.

It was already [-]:[-] in the evening. Although there were still customers in the store, the fire in the back kitchen had been sealed off, and the chefs were cleaning up the cooking utensils.

Lin Xu wiped his hands and said to Wei Gan:
"Arrange people to guard here at night to avoid any accidents. If the fire goes out, turn it on again, and turn the fire to the minimum by the way."

After finishing speaking, he changed the water for all kinds of dry products soaked in hair, and then went back to get off work with the car keys.

At this moment, Dundun was broadcasting live on the small pool table in the living room, and he didn't know what to say to the fans, meowing non-stop.

Sitting in front of the piano, Chen Yan played some simple pieces earnestly, such as "Autumn Whispers", "Childhood Memories", "Dream Wedding" and other piano pieces, occasionally interspersed with some popular songs in earlier years , such as "The First Time", "Fairy Tale" and other songs suitable for playing, which were also the repertoires she often practiced when she was learning the piano.

The melodious piano music seems to be an accompaniment to Dundun. The little guy likes his aunt's cooperation very much, and even forgives her past rude behavior.

In the kitchen, Shen Jiayue was making potato chips and other snacks in the air fryer.

By the way, I also grilled some chicken breasts for Dundun. Before roasting, I specially mixed the meat with raw salted duck egg yolk and egg yolk, which was regarded as a preliminary marinade.

The whole house is filled with the smell of barbecue, accompanied by piano music and prying voices, which makes people's hearts inexplicably peaceful.

Lin Xu put the car in the parking lot, and instead of going upstairs immediately, he strolled to buy some premium-grade Mihaya cherries, and bought several other fruits.

When I met acquainted neighbors and security guards in the community, I also took the initiative to say hello to them.

I took the elevator upstairs and walked into the house. I noticed that my aunt was playing the piano and Dundun was broadcasting live, so I didn't say anything. I came to the kitchen with fruits and whispered about the delicacies that Shen Jiayue was baking.

After finishing all this work, he put on slippers, washed his hands carefully, and brought the grilled chicken breast to the side of the small billiard case where the live broadcast was done. He smiled and greeted the netizens in the live broadcast room, and then put the plate In front of Dundun:
"Are you tired? Eat something first, and then turn on the radio for your villagers later."

Dundun let out a cry and started to eat supper.

Lin Xu didn't bother it either, but went back to the kitchen and continued making snacks with Shen Jiayue.

When it was almost done, Chen Yan also stopped playing the piano, and the three of them sat in the living room, turned on the TV, and chatted softly while watching TV.

"Xubao, can Buddha Jump Over the Wall be done tomorrow?"

"No, we can only make the golden soup tomorrow, and we can only make it when our parents come the day after tomorrow."

What we need to do tomorrow is to process the golden soup, and then pre-process all the ingredients. Some need to be steamed, some need to be boiled, and some need to be stewed with other side dishes.

There are many ways to do it, and Lin Xu needs to do it step by step.

The day after tomorrow, when all the ingredients are properly processed, then take a jar, put the ingredients into the jar layer by layer, then pour the prepared golden soup into it, seal the dried lotus leaves and simmer for a few hours on low heat to let the ingredients While maintaining the original taste, it can also absorb the taste of other ingredients.

After everything is simmered, it can be put into a basin or a cup according to different eating methods.

Putting it into a basin refers to serving dishes in a basin. The arrangement is more particular. On the top is usually a circle of pigeon eggs that have been simmered for several hours. They are not only beautiful, but also delicious to eat.

And if it is served in a cup, it is a single serving, each person has a small cup, the dishes look more delicate, and there will be no rush to serve the dishes from the pot.

Generally, high-end hotels are just about tea, and they sell meals for one person.

Only some old shops will directly serve a casserole or a small jar, and everyone takes turns to serve it with spoons.

Chen Yan asked curiously:
"Brother-in-law, at the state banquet, should this kind of dish be served as a meal or directly in a large bowl?"

This Lin Xu really knew, he said:

"Before the 80s, it was all eaten around a table. After the 80s, in order to conform to international standards, the state banquet began to implement a regular meal system. No matter what dish is served, one person serves."

The reason why the filming of state banquets has been relatively slow recently is that it’s okay to make the regular meals separately, but it’s really a headache to put flowers on the table.

The standard seating for a state banquet is a table for ten people. If you want to fill up all the dishes and soups, if you arrange them according to the amount of ten people, there will be a lot of them, and there will be no aesthetic feeling if they are densely packed.

In reality, there are standards for the serving process of state banquets, and one dish is removed from the previous one, so that the diners will not be piled up with dishes.

But if you follow this process when shooting, you won't be able to reflect the elegance and solemnity of the state banquet, so the filming team is quite a headache.

Now everyone is working hard to shoot the state banquets before the 80s. At that time, they were all huh-la-la setting up a table, and everyone held up chopsticks to eat directly.

"Meow meow meow!"

While chatting, Dundun uttered a few hasty calls, and then jumped away from the live broadcast mobile phone.

Lin Xu got up and walked over, curiously asked:
"No live broadcast anymore?"

"Meow~"

It seems that Village Chief Tun's radio speech today has been enjoyable. Lin Xu picked up the mobile phone used for the live broadcast, and said to the netizens in the live broadcast room:

"Dundun's live broadcast is over, everyone should rest early."

Someone sent a message in the barrage and asked:

"Boss Lin, why hasn't your long video account been updated? We're still waiting to satisfy our hunger."

"Yeah, remind me more!"

"Compared to short videos, long videos are more enjoyable to watch. Not only do they have more dishes, but they also look like hosting a wedding at home."

"..."

Lin Xu looked at everyone and said:

"Our family will indeed have a happy event in a few days, and I will take a picture of the wedding banquet process for you, please be patient... By the way, I will update a lost dish tomorrow, which needs to be marinated for a full 120 days. The details will be kept secret for the time being, my friend. See you tomorrow!"

The video of marinating duck in tea oil has been filmed before. Tomorrow, I will take another video about the process of taking tea oil duck from the tank, chopping, arranging, steaming, and tasting, and it will be updated.

Under the topic of Lin Kee Food, the netizens who got the news chatted enthusiastically.

"You said, what will be the updated dish tomorrow?"

"It's hard to say, there are so many lost dishes, who knows which one Boss Lin is thinking about."

"It doesn't matter which one, just wait for the gambling and drug brother to make a copy."

"Don't forget the marinating time, even if my brother imitates it smoothly, it will take four months."

"Boss Lin said so confidently just now, I guess the taste must be very good."

"I don't know if it tastes good or not. Anyway, I heard that Linji is about to expand again. Mr. Zheng from our design office won the design list again. Today, I went to Linji to measure the site."

"Wow, Lin Kee is so big and needs to be expanded. Is the branch closed?"

"It's opened. Lin Kee's main store is an experimental product. We will open a new store according to the layout of the main store and the size of the venue. You can wait and see what it will look like. Anyway, I am looking forward to it day and night in Chaoyang. I hope that Lin Kee will come soon."

"..."

Lin Xu cleaned up Dundun's live broadcast equipment, saw the little guy on the balcony staring at the bright moon in a daze, walked over curiously, and hugged it in his arms:
"Is this homesick?"

"nia~nia~nia~"

Dundun pointed in the direction of the moon and called softly a few times, but Lin Xu couldn't understand, and felt that the little guy was a little unhappy.

You are not a creature on earth, and you don't know where your hometown is. Even if your father wants to send you home, there is nothing you can do... Lin Xu sighed in his heart, and deeply realized the importance of knowing a foreign language.

It's a pity that the system doesn't have cat language skills, otherwise even [-] million points would be exchanged.

Dundun stayed for a while, then went upstairs and returned to his room.

Chen Yan has recently developed the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. After eating snacks, she also returned to her room. Lin Xu cleaned up the kitchen and went upstairs to rest with Shen Jiayue.

The next morning, there was still no cooking at home.

Several people drove to the store, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Ma Zhiqiang eating freshly made buns.

These steamed stuffed buns are the meat that was filtered out yesterday, the bones were removed, a lot of pig fat was added, and then filled with various condiments.

"Is this bun stuffing okay?"

"Okay, okay, it's super delicious. In the morning, Chef Wei added some pork skin, and it tastes quite chewy."

Lin Xu was afraid that these fillings would not taste good, so now that there is no problem, he can rest assured.

When I came to the small kitchen, the fire on the stove was still simmering.

The fragrance wafts out through the lotus leaves and can be smelled from afar.

Open the covered lotus leaf, and you can see that the soup inside has turned golden, and the thickness is also very high, viscous visible to the naked eye.

Golden soup is done!

Lin Xu cheered a little in his heart, but he couldn't take it lightly at this time, because whether Jin Tang would succeed in the end, he couldn't draw a conclusion at this time, and there was still a final step - cooling.

The so-called cooling is to pour out the golden soup, filter out the ingredients such as ham, pork belly, tendons, etc., then pour it into a large basin, and carry it to the cold storage to cool down.

There is a lot of fat in the broth, which will affect the taste when eating, so find a way to separate it out.

The way to separate is to let the broth cool down. The gelatin in the soup will solidify into jelly, and the oil will gather on the surface. Carefully scrape it off with a spoon. This way the soup will be fragrant but not greasy when you drink it.

But cooling is also a technical task, and the temperature cannot be cooled too fast, otherwise the oil will be sealed in the skin jelly, which is a waste of time.

And if it is slow, it will not work, it will affect the quality of the broth.

Lin Xu called Ma Zhiqiang over and carefully poured out the soup. The pork belly inside had been completely rotten, and there were not many tendons left, most of which had melted into the soup.

"Damn, this golden soup looks tempting. The cost of this pot is almost thousands of dollars?"

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"It's not that exaggerated, but there are seven or eight hundred."

This is only the cost of ingredients. If the cost of time is added, it is really high.

After the residue was filtered, Lin Xu brought a large basin, and Ma Zhiqiang poured the golden translucent broth into it, and then carried it to the cold storage near the door.

The temperature here is relatively high, and the cooling will not be so fast.

In order to prevent dirty things from falling into it, the two also put a lid on the basin.

Three hours later, Lin Xu opened the lid again, and found that the soup inside had solidified, and some fat had gathered on the surface. He carefully scraped it out, and patted it on the golden jelly.

The trembling hand told him that the golden soup was completely ready, and next, it was time to deal with all kinds of precious ingredients...
