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

Chapter 793 Lin Xu: Am I here to co-shoot a video, or to buy something? 【Subscribe】

“It’s the first time I found that grass carp can be so delicious!”

Lin Xuchong gave Wu Shouye a thumbs up. He was somewhat disdainful of the West Lake vinegar fish criticized by netizens, thinking that even if it was delicious, it was at most the level of sweet and sour fish.

But when the fish was in his mouth, he realized that he had underestimated the charm of this legendary dish.

He never thought that an ordinary grass carp could be so delicious after not too complicated processing. If he hadn't witnessed the whole process, he really doubted whether the ingredients had been changed.

The fish is very tender, with a strong crab flavor in the mouth, but eating such a big mouthful is much easier than eating crabs.

Wu Shouye pulled the fish with chopsticks and said:
"Look, the fish meat has been grilled, but the bones have not fallen off. This is a sign that the fish is cooked just right. If you eat it like this, you won't get any bones. This is why celebrities like to eat West Lake vinegar fish."

It was only after he said this that Lin Xu realized that the grass carp had intermuscular spines, but after eating a few bites, it didn't come out at all, which turned out to be due to the cooking technique.

When I first made Longjing Shrimp, I was still lamenting the transformation of Chinese food into magic, but I didn't expect such a show to be staged now.

Who would have thought that an ordinary grass carp could become so delicious, it is simply the pinnacle of fish life!

In addition to the delicious fish, the sauce is also adjusted just right.

The taste is silky and thick, sweet and sour mixed with savory, and there is a hint of spiciness from ginger. This kind of soup is not to mention paired with fish, even if it is directly mixed with rice, Lin Xu can eat three bowls in one go.

The perfect fish with the perfect sauce completes this delicious dish.

"Thank you, Chef Wu, for letting me see the beauty of Zhejiang cuisine. Today's trip is really not in vain!"

Lin Xu originally thought that just one piece of Longjing shrimp would be enough to gain knowledge, but he didn't expect the West Lake vinegar fish to be even better.

Looking back, I have to find a way to add a group of aquariums to the store, and pick some grass carp with good physique to raise them. After forming a cycle, we will sell a limited number of [-] copies of West Lake Vinegar Fish every day, so that customers can get a new understanding of this dish.

When this is recorded, the video can end.

Lin Xu said to the camera:

"This dish is very good, so I plan to introduce a new one in the store. It's better to enjoy it alone than to share it with the customers in the store."

He originally wanted to promote Diaoyutai Building No. [-], but the West Lake vinegar fish here is obviously not open to the public, otherwise he would not only get two or three grass carp at a time.

And the brother also said that it is a matter of luck, and it is estimated that every time there is a reception task, he will prepare a few in advance.

After turning off the camera, Lin Xu looked at Wu Shouye and asked:
"What's your level of video editing? Are you planning to edit these two videos yourself or let someone from the company edit them?"

"My level is average, and I usually edit videos more stupidly than gourd painting. I think the quality of these two is good, so I'll send them to the company later."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xu said:

"Forget it, let me do it. When the company's work and holidays are over, let's upload it to the Internet for everyone to gain insight while netizens are still making complaints about it."

After speaking, he pulled out the memory card of the camera and put it in his bag, ready to go home and edit.

Wu Shouye was greatly moved:
"Brother Lin, you are too open, I can't let you help for nothing."

After finishing speaking, he hurried out, not only helped Lin Xu fish out the remaining grass carp, but also specially put it in the live fish box to ensure that the fish was always fresh.

Then I moved a box of Huyang soy sauce, a box of double fish rice vinegar, and two boxes of Huadiao wine with a long history.

Lin Xu glanced at it, this level of flower carvings used for cooking is basically tantamount to reckless waste. I didn't expect Lao Wu to have two boxes here.

Is it because the senior brother and Lao Dai can't sweep up, or is he hiding too tightly?
Shouldn't this kind of flower carving be looted by the villains of Diaoyutai immediately?

I feel like Lao Wu is underestimated.

In addition to these condiments and fish, Lao Wu took two more hams, other miscellaneous ingredients, and even a small can of higher-grade Longjing tea, which opened Lin Xu's eyes.

After waiting for the trunk to be full, Lao Wu stopped.

When Lin Xu was about to get in the car, he said:
"Brother, the technique of Longjing shrimp can not only make shrimp, but also Longjing fish slices, Longjing chicken slices, Longjing chicken diced, Longjing snail slices... Remember to diverge your thinking and ponder more. The West Lake vinegar fish is also the same, there are many ways. There are many kinds, don’t be limited by fixed thinking.”

These words are very chewy, and Lin Xu even thinks they are worth more than those seasonings and ingredients in the trunk.

"Thank you, Chef Wu, for your guidance. I'll think about this kind of dishes when I'm not busy. When I'm not busy, let's make a video together to promote more culinary culture."

"OK, OK, no problem!"

Saying goodbye to Wu Shouye, Lin Xu drove away from Building No. [-], went to the catering department to chat with Director Liao for a while, and then went back.

When he came to Yingchun Street, he had just parked the car when he saw Lao Suntou's car turning from the entrance of Yingchun Street.

"Xiao Lin, the fish is in the trunk, you can get it off, I'll drive the car back first."

The car pulled over, Lao Sun put his head down the car window, and said to Lin Xu, Dundun took the opportunity to jump out of the car window, rubbed Lin Xu's trouser legs, and then went to the shop in a hurry.

Lin Xu opened the back door of the tank 300, and saw not only a large herring weighing more than 30 kilograms inside, but also two catfish and a cocked beak.

"Catfish and Qiao Zuier were caught before lunch, and an alligator gar was caught. In the afternoon, there was nothing to catch, so we caught a herring."

Old Suntou's words were full of complacency, every time he took Dundun out, there was no disadvantage. If the little guy was not Xiaolin and Yueyue's heart, he would even want to compete with those fishing kings.

Lin Xu took all the fish, closed the car door, trotted to the store, and then moved the seasonings Wu Shouye sent to the store.

Song Tiantian saw this situation and rushed to help:
"Boss, are you going to buy some goods?"

"Chef Wu from Diaoyutai No. [-] Building gave it to me. Don't be impatient with me... Don't take these cans of tea. I'm going to keep them at home for entertaining guests."

With a large pot of Longjing tea, a large pot of Biluochun tea, and a small pot of rare Longjing tea, Lin Xu felt that the tea alone would be enough to buy a family car.

In the past, I always felt that the tea leaves that cost 20 million yuan per catty were fooling fools, but today I tasted Longjing Shrimp and realized that good tea is really different.

Being busy with work, Xu Xinhua also came to help, and everyone rushed to send all the ingredients and seasonings upstairs.

Before Lin Xu could take a breath, Shen Jiayue leaned over, took a piece of biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth:
"I made this by myself, praise me quickly, don't criticize me!"

Good guy, I'm afraid it won't taste good.

Lin Xu chewed and asked curiously:
"Did you secretly attend the Queen Mother's Pantao Party behind my back? Such a perfect biscuit is only suitable for gods, it's so delicious..."

"I hate it, how can I be so exaggerated!"

Shen Jiayue raised her hand with a smile, and fed Lin Xu another slice:
"Everyone said that I have a talent for making pasta, and they also said that the Central University of Finance and Economics still has something in culinary education."

Lin Xu ate the biscuits and thought they were really delicious.

Not to mention the taste, but the scent of noodles and the crispy chopped moss are a little more smokey than the biscuits sold in the supermarket, and they are delicious to chew.

"It's really good. Later, you can add some white sugar to the seaweed to make the sweet and salty flavor stand out more thoroughly."

Shen Jiayue blinked, how could it be seasoned like this?
The chef will try again when he has time. Anyway, with the help of technology, we can’t do anything.

"Boss, what are you doing with this herring?"

As soon as Zhu Yong saw such a big fish, he was excited and couldn't help asking.

Lin Xu said:

"The fish head is removed and stewed with tofu, the fish tail is braised in braised water, and the fish body is made into raw baked, garlic braised, dry fried, dry pot... Later I will make a three-cup fish and raw fried, anyway, it is so big As for the fish, make a few more dishes. By the way, let’s braise the fish offal directly, this will be served with rice.”

"okay!"

Zhu Yong agreed, carried the fish into the kitchen, and began to slaughter.

Big fish are full of treasures. In addition to regular fish meat, even fish scales and other waste can be cooked without wasting at all.

Seeing that the catfish was still alive, Shen Jiayue couldn't help saying:

"Grandma used to say that stewed catfish and eggplant are very delicious, and she also said that catfish stewed with eggplant will make the old man die. Xu Bao, can you do it? If so, can you do it for grandma once when you go to deliver biscuits to grandma tomorrow?" ah?"

It's not that simple, Lin Xu said:
"No problem. Uncle Sun just caught two. Let's eat one today, and take the remaining one to the South Third Ring Road for grandma tomorrow."

After speaking, he carried the catfish into the kitchen.

Shen Jiayue sent the remaining catfish to the aquarium downstairs to be taken by relatives tomorrow.

After putting the fish back, she saw that Dundun was playing a game with Shu Yun, so she walked over, rubbed the little guy's head and asked:

"Did you have fun at the reservoir?"

Dundun rubbed his head against Shen Jiayue's hand, looking very happy.

"Since we're happy, how about we go to Grandpa Sun's house and invite him and Grandma Sun to have dinner?"

"Meow~~~"

Upon hearing this, Dundun immediately jumped into Shen Jiayue's arms, expressing that he was going to visit.

When we got to the door, we met Tongtong who had just finished school, and asked the old grandson to eat one more member of the team.

When passing by the entrance of the supermarket, Shen Jiayue rushed to Uncle Yu and said:
"Uncle, Uncle Sun caught a big herring today, let's go to the store for dinner later, and try it together."

"Now everyone in the street knows that he is fishing. That guy, who is not addicted to posting in the group, even posted a wave. Just greeted him, and he asked me how I knew he caught a big herring weighing more than 30 kilograms. That guy, if we continue to promote it, even Trisolarans will know about it."

Shen Jiayue is very familiar with this kind of scene:

"All fishermen are like this, and it was the same way when I caught a fish last time."

When she took Tongtong and Dundun to Laosuntou's house, Lin Xu slaughtered the catfish and started to make stewed eggplant with catfish, a famous dish in Northeast China.

Wash the slaughtered catfish first, and then pour hot water on the fish to burn off the outer layer of mucous membrane. This is the main source of the catfish's strong smell. Only after it is completely cleaned, the resulting catfish will not be so strong. fishy smell.

After the fish is hot, clean the mucous membrane and rinse it again.

Then prepare a few slender purple eggplants, wash them and put them in a basket for later use without removing the stalks.

Put the oil pan on the stove, add the oil for frying fish, the oil temperature is [-]% hot, put the catfish in it and fry it.

Frying the fish before stewing it can not only effectively remove the fishy smell, but also increase the aroma, so that the fish tastes strong and fatty.

This dish used to be a home-cooked dish in the Northeast, but not many people cook it now, because the catfish has a fishy smell if it is not handled properly.

In fact, it is very simple to remove the fishy smell. First, scalding the skin and then frying it can basically remove the fishy smell from the catfish. However, it is inconvenient to use oil at home, so fewer and fewer people cook this dish.

There is no need to over-fry the catfish. Basically, the skin can be fished out to control the oil. This step is mainly to remove the fishy smell. If it is over-fried, the umami taste in the fish will be gone.

After the catfish is fried, put the eggplant in the pan and fry it.

In this dish, the eggplant cannot be cut or even removed. The reason is that there is a frying step. No matter whether the knife is changed or the stem is removed, the oil will penetrate into the eggplant, making the eggplant taste greasy.

Delicious Northeast dishes all pay attention to fragrance but not greasy. Once there is a greasy feeling, no matter how good the dish is, it will be useless.

After the eggplant is fried, Lin Xu takes it out and puts it in a frying pan. Add some soybean oil and lard to the pan, heat it up and add green onion, ginger and garlic, stir-fry until fragrant, add a tablespoon of Northeast miso, stir-fry slowly over low heat, and slurp for a while , sauté the sauce until fragrant.

Then add water, put the catfish and eggplant together and simmer until the catfish and eggplant become soft and rotten, then add some sugar, then collect the juice, add some chili slices or something, and it’s ready to serve.

The method of this Northeast dish is relatively simple, without so many complicated processes, and the steps of making it are also the general technique of braised dishes in sauce, but the ingredients need to be oiled in advance.

After Lin Xu finished stewing the catfish with eggplant, he made raw fried fish fillets and three cups of fish. In the end, he exchanged the perfect method of West Lake Vinegar Fish in the system mall, and made the grass carp Wu Shouye gave him into West Lake Vinegar fish.

At this moment, Lao Shen and Han Shuzhen also drove there.

The couple didn't come here to eat fish, they mainly wanted to taste the biscuits made by their daughter.

The daughter who used to be so innocent can even make biscuits. The parents naturally have to praise them face to face, and ask side-by-side if the son-in-law helped make them.

After all, this girl didn't commit crimes once or twice, and she has a lot of criminal records.

Unexpectedly, before he tasted the biscuits, he was attracted by the fish on the table, especially the West Lake vinegar fish just brought out, which reminded Lao Shen of his experience of being cheated by the West Lake again.

And Professor Cui, Lao Suntou and others also sighed after eating:
"It's delicious, this is the taste of West Lake vinegar fish!"

"I feel that the West Lake vinegar fish eaten while traveling in Hangzhou are all counterfeit products."

"Remove the feeling, it is a counterfeit."

"I didn't expect this to be made of grass carp. If it wasn't a whole carp, I wouldn't believe it was crab meat."

"It's so delicious, the more you taste the better it tastes, this taste is really amazing!"

I didn't expect that the unpalatable dishes that everyone complained about could be so delicious.

Of course, in addition to West Lake vinegar fish, dishes such as catfish stewed eggplant and three cup fish are also very delicious and very enjoyable to eat.

Shen Guofu showed off the eggplant in his mouth and said:
"Every time I come to eat in the store, I can't wait to go out against the wall. These fish are really enjoyable. A table of fish, each dish has a different taste and texture, which is incredible."

Lin Xu took a bite of rice:
"Today I also learned Longjing Shrimp from Chef Wu, which is also a very subversive dish. I will make some big river prawns when I buy them tomorrow. Let's try them together."

Big river prawns are not easy to buy, especially in the north. You have to catch up before you can buy some.

Upon hearing this, Shen Guofu said:

"This dish is also the key point of stepping on the pit. Not to mention expensive, the key point is that it doesn't taste much. I feel that I just use the leftover tea root to cook some shrimps. It's nothing, and it's deadly expensive."

When Lao Shen mentioned his travel experience, he immediately began to pour out his bitterness, and the others also felt sorry for him. Obviously, being slaughtered and cheated on the trip is a terrible thing that almost every tourist will encounter.

After eating and drinking, Han Shuzhen packed some biscuits made by her daughter, and planned to give them to her girlfriends and friends.

Finally it's our turn to show off our girls, we must show off in all directions.

In the next two days, Shen Jiayue made biscuits of other flavors and gave them to relatives' homes with Lin Xu. By the way, she made a meal of stewed eggplant with catfish for old lady Shen, which made the old lady very happy.

Two days later, Zeng Xiaoqi and Qi Siming returned to the capital from Zhangjiajie. It is said that before going to Zhangjiajie, she and Qi Siming went to Huangshan for a tour and became special soldiers once.

When Zeng Xiaoqi got off the plane and came to eat at the restaurant, Shu Yun looked at her tanned skin and suddenly felt that it was a wise choice to stay in the capital.

You don't have to rush, you don't have to be called a fugitive African chief, and you can get a high salary.

Xiao Qiqi didn't know how many whitening creams she had to apply to make up for this trip... It's really sympathetic.

However, Zeng Xiaoqi killed Shu Baobao on the spot with one sentence:

"I have a boyfriend, do you have one?"

Shu Yun: "..."

This guy travels around, why does he talk like Gong Biao?
Being silent, Shen Jiayue came out of the small kitchen with a plate of moss and shrimp cakes, and said to Zeng Xiaoqi with a smile:

"Miss Xiaoqi, try my handicraft. I baked it fresh today."

Zeng Xiaoqi was stunned, she didn't see her for a holiday, why did the proprietress's cooking skills rise as quickly as she took the Long March No. [-]?

In the past, I joked with netizens that she was Xiaobai in the kitchen, but now it seems that Xiaobai is me?
Shu Yun asked:

"Is the kitchen equipment unaffected?"

Last night, the construction team dug a door out of the wall on one side of the small kitchen and moved some kitchen equipment, so Shen Jiayue made some food in the kitchen today, and checked whether the equipment was affected.

And Lin Xu is testing the cooling and ventilation effect of the equipment in the newly expanded warehouse and cold storage. If there is nothing wrong, he will start buying ducks in large quantities and make hundreds of delicious camellia oil ducks.

Shen Jiayue took a bite of the moss and shrimp cake and said:
"It's not affected. I use it normally. I've been cooking mosses for the past few days. Tomorrow I'm going to learn how to make tea-flavored chicken and experience the taste of cooking with famous tea..."
