Food starts from cooking

Chapter 61 Be good, you don’t need money for peppers

The cooking of the hot pot base has begun!

First select these spice materials in a fixed ratio. As for the ratio, it depends on experience.

Sharp-billed peppers are also the most used peppers in the hot pot base. Wash off the dust on them with cold water, and then use rotten peppers that have been beaten into different sizes!
"Hiss, so many peppers? Lethal dose!"

Seeing that Zhou You used so much chili, Bai Lu subconsciously covered her butt!

It is said that garlic is spicy at one end, but chili is spicy at both ends!

Then use this small mill to grind all spices such as cinnamon pepper into powder for later use.

Finally, start to light the fire. When the pot is hot, throw the prepared butter into it, then put the onion and garlic in the colander, and fry it in oil. Remove the garlic.

"Ah, throw it away now?"

Bai Lu, who had never cooked, was surprised to see that Zhou You just used the hot oil with onion and garlic.

But then, a scent of onion and garlic hit.

The onion and garlic are originally seasonings to enhance the flavor, not to mention fried in this kind of hot oil, the smell spreads all at once, which reminds me of my mother's cooking.

Bai Lu was talking to himself, while Zhou You began to pour in the crushed chili and bean paste one by one, and then began to stir continuously.

During this period, Zhou You has been changing the size of the fire.

Because there are peppers in it, the heat should not be too high. Once the heat is too high, the oil temperature will be too high and the peppers will turn black.

Following the stirring, Bai Lu had already started to cough dryly, she hurried away, and came back after a while.

"Give you!"

Zhou You turned his head and saw that Bai Lu was wearing a mask, and brought him one by the way.

"Thank you!"

Taking it over and putting it on, the spiciness didn't lessen at all, but he was used to it long ago.

When the cooking was almost done, Zhou You began to add chili peppers, the whole pot had turned red and black red and black, and then there was the crushed spice powder and half a bowl of peppercorns!
"Is this the hot pot base?"

Li Xin didn't know when she came over. When she saw this pot of food, she covered her nose and stood far away. After all, she could already smell the pungent smell.

Both of them are from Suzhou Province, so they don't eat spicy food very much, but they have no resistance to hot pot. When they go out with colleagues after work, they usually choose hot pot.

With stirring, it gradually became more and more viscous, and the fire gradually became smaller.

"Don't touch this!"

When it was almost done, he gave the two of them a warning, and then went into the kitchen again.

The simple version of the hot pot base is almost ready, and the next thing is to eat.

Fortunately, he is a cook, and today the old Feng's school entrance banquet gave him a lot of leftover materials when he left. Of course, there are always some leftovers at home.

Tripe, louver, kidney, pork tongue, luncheon meat, and all kinds of soy products!

Naturally, vegetables are also indispensable. In fact, there are a lot of vegetables at home. After all, vegetables are ripe in this season.

Leek, cabbage, chrysanthemum, spinach, these are everywhere!

"Come and clean these!"

Without looking back, Zhou You knew that the two of them had been poking their heads at the door, yelled, and then started to cook another pot.

Still hot pot.

But it's not Sichuan-Chongqing's spicy hot pot.

It's mushroom hot pot!

The so-called mushroom hot pot is to stew several different types of mushrooms together into a pot. The fresh fragrance of the mushrooms is forced out under the action of high temperature, and the fragrance is bursting and the taste is charming.

Especially the deliciousness of the soup, and the softness of the mushrooms, it tastes three points better than the meat!
The soup base is ready-made. After all, he already had it at home, and he had soaked the mushrooms in water before. Unfortunately, the time was a little short, but he just ate it by himself, so there was no need to be so particular about it.

And the reason why I make another mushroom hot pot is because some people may not be able to eat that spicy.

The flame rose, and the white foam in the pot floated up. Zhou You scooped up the foam little by little, repeated three or five times, and finally became clear.

And the mushrooms that had been soaked before were torn apart by Zhou You little by little, or thrown in whole.

With the beeping sound of the hot soup base, a very special fresh fragrance spreads!

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Bai Lu, who was cleaning the vegetables here, was like a puppy, her nose twitched, and she looked over immediately.

"This is...a mushroom?"

“Mushroom Hot Pot!”

"Ah, isn't the fungus from the south of Caiyun?"

Zhou You rolled his eyes, as long as there are mountains, there will be bacteria. It’s just that he was influenced by the phrase “red umbrellas and white stalks, let’s lie down together after eating”, and Yungui’s relatively high-profile eating fungus, which led to everyone When I think of eating mushrooms, I think it is Yungui!

However, he really didn't pick up these fungus himself. The last time he went to Dayu Village in Jidu for errands, the host gave them a lot when he left, but he never had time to eat them.

Of course, as a chef, he knows all these bacteria.

Ten kinds of non-toxic, four kinds of slightly poisonous!
But this so-called micro-poison, as long as it is cooked.

"Okay, let's eat spicy hot pot first!"

Turning down the fire, the bottom of the hot pot over there was half solidified. Zhou You scooped up some of it with a shovel, put it in another large iron pot, poured chicken soup on it, and took it out.

"Fuck, are you ready?"

"I can smell it from afar, the smell of hot pot!"

Here, Mr. He and the others had already taken out the stove, and when the cauldron was put on, it was soon beeping.

"smell good!"

"Zhou You made the bottom material himself!"

"I'll go, it's so red, it's spicy even at a glance!"

"Hey, don't you want chili peppers?"

Although everyone was eating hot pot outside, the problem was that the hot pot served by Zhou You was too red, especially the red oil and chili floating on it, everyone was sweating.

Other people here have also brought out the packed items.

As for the dipping ingredients: onion, ginger, garlic, millet pepper, red oil chili sauce, pepper powder, vinegar, sesame oil, oil consumption, etc., everything is available!
There was food, and it was hot pot, and everyone came alive, and the previous artistic atmosphere was instantly broken.

One by one, they took small bowls and began to give themselves seasoning bowls.

Finally waited for the first bite to go in.

"Oh, it smells so good!"

"I thought it was very spicy, but I didn't expect it to taste delicious!"

"Long City also grows chili peppers, especially the chili oil they make themselves, which is not simply dry and spicy, but fragrant and spicy!"

Bai Lu rinsed the tripe with chopsticks, and then swallowed it in one gulp.

Listening to the creaking and crunching sound, the spicy hot soup on the tip of the tongue instantly spread throughout the mouth.

You know, none of the people present have eaten hot pot, but you can really tell whether the hot pot is delicious or not.

And everyone likes the first bite differently.

Some eat vegetables, some eat soy products, and some eat meat, but when the red oil mixed with the dipping sauce is sent into the mouth, for a while, the perception of the taste buds seems to be infinitely magnified, as if you are in a hot spring!
How is it a fragrant word!
　Everyone eats hot pot, what dipping sauce do you use, I usually only have minced garlic, spicy millet, and light soy sauce!Hairy tripe and bean curd must be ordered!In addition, begging for a recommended monthly ticket, today is a bit deserted, today is also the last day of this week, please help quickly break through [-] recommended tickets, thank you!
