Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 275 Criticism from Lu Su

The main dish is beef stewed with red wine. Speaking of this, it reminds people of the beef stewed with Burgundy red wine in Xingling. It is the dish that adds honey for seasoning to speed up the softening of the meat because of the lack of cooking time.

It was a classic French dish, but Zhang Fei obviously didn't cook that.After all, this is a mature recipe, which means at least it has been improved for a long time.And before this year, potatoes hadn't even appeared!

A large piece of beef, I have to say that just looking at it like this, the thick feeling of the meat can make people's vision and get the greatest satisfaction.As a staple food, the sense of thickness is a must, after all, this is the most important part of the whole banquet.

"Wine is rarely used for cooking. I didn't expect General Zhang to use it to stew beef." Lu Su smelled the smell, and the smell of beef was mixed with the smell of red wine. The key is that this smell is not at all obtrusive. It's amazing for him!

"I also found out by accident..." Zhang Fei was a little embarrassed.

"Stealing a drink in the army, it was found that it was poured directly into the pot, and it turned out that red wine tastes good with meat, especially beef?" Guan Yu directly dispelled it. At that time, this guy pretended to say that he was trying a new recipe.

Drinking is not allowed in the army, doesn't it mean that she doesn't even know this truth? !

But it's hard to say anything, the main business of the third sister's hometown is wine and meat, and the wine pool and meat forest is at her house, so it can really be described like that.All kinds of meat, all kinds of wine, really countless.The point is that she seems to have started drinking at the age of five, and now she is completely a big alcoholic. She feels uncomfortable without drinking for a day, and often secretly gets drunk by herself.

It's okay to change it in normal times, but it's the same virtue in the army.Both Guan Yu and Liu Bei had persuaded her, and each time they agreed verbally, and even swore to the sky, and then they would go back to their old ways for at most three days.

"The appearance of some dishes comes from various accidents." Wang Yong said with a smile.Among other things, let’s just talk about this Buddha jumping over the wall. It is said that its own birth came from an accident. Of course, the original taste is not much better, but it has been continuously improved.

"This beef should be marinated in red wine, right? Onions, carrots and small white mushrooms are put in it... The soup is made of chicken broth..." Lu Su just flipped through it, smelled it, and it was about Know the main ingredients.

"You are amazing, you know such details without eating!" Zhang Fei couldn't help being stunned.

"The meat is fried first and then stewed, and the meat is so tender. It should be the effect of the wine." Lu Su picked up a piece of beef, felt the elasticity from the chopsticks, and put it directly into his mouth after speaking.

The aroma of spices, the sweetness of mushrooms, onions and carrots, and the gravy of beef burst in the mouth.Every piece of beef is like a bomb, the moment it is bitten down, everything splashes into the mouth, and then wraps every inch of the tip of the tongue.

"The role of red wine is not only to increase the aroma, but I didn't expect it to soften the meat..." Lu Su tasted it slowly. After the flavor was enhanced by spices and the freshness of the chicken soup, this red wine stewed beef was very complete.

The thick taste is even more satisfying. A few pieces of beef, plus appetizers and side dishes, will make you half full.The dissatisfaction brought about by the appetizers and side dishes is also greatly satisfied by this dish.

If I have to say it, I still have something to say, and this idea is just right, after all, there are still dishes to be served later.

So under such circumstances, the main food was served, and the three small pancakes were exactly Jiuniang pancakes.Put the fermented glutinous rice into warm water and mix it, then mix it into the flour, knead it into long strips after fermentation, divide it into ten parts, and put it into bean paste filling.

Heat a pan, grease with a layer of grease, and bake the pancakes over low heat until golden brown.In the final analysis, it is a deformation of red bean paste cake, with a little more taste of fermented rice.

"The feeling of Jiuniang is very light. It is not only used as seasoning in Jiuniang cake, but also used as yeast. It tastes delicious and sweet, so you can't miss it as a sweet party. The taste is the same as that of mung bean cake. It is rare that too much sugar is not added. It is used as a staple food. This is just right." Lu Su commented while eating the Jiuniang cake.

"Xun Yu and Cao Cao should like this taste..." Wang Yong was eating pancakes, and he couldn't help but wonder if he would try it again after returning home.The red wine stewed beef is also good, and there is even room for improvement, such as spices and potatoes. Zhang Fei has not done enough research on spices, and potatoes are scarce, so she probably hasn't come into contact with them yet.

Wine-pickled cucumbers are actually made by adding white wine to the cucumbers, which can remove the grassy taste.Dukang wine is used, with a mellow aroma, and the sweetness of cucumber is also highlighted. It is also very good as a vegetable or a cold dish after a meal.

"It's crispy and tastes great!" Xiahou Dun likes this sweet and sour taste very much, especially the cucumber is crispy and very comfortable to eat.The stewed beef with red wine and the strong taste of the wine made of glutinous rice cakes were also cleared at this moment.

Simply put, the tongue is well rested.

So under such circumstances, Tian Jiu Niang was brought up, without wolfberry and red dates, pure egg Tian Jiu Niang.Smelling the unique smell of rum, Wang Yong couldn't help but twitched his nose.

"It's good to use this as a finishing touch!" Wang Yong picked up the small bowl and took a spoonful.

The sweet fermented rice quickly climbed to the tip of the tongue, and then wrapped around the tongue. The rich sweetness made people feel very satisfied.As a finishing touch, it's a good choice.

"However, that's all it is..." Lu Su put down his empty bowl and sighed regretfully.

"Why, are you dissatisfied with my mother's dishes?" Zhang Fei asked very unhappy. At this moment, not only Lu Su, but also Lu Su
"No no!" Lu Su shook his head, "General Zhang used wine to enhance the aroma and umami taste of the dishes. He has indeed stepped out of the route of a senior chef. That's all!"

After a pause, he continued: "Well then, the first course uses rice wine, the second course uses fermented rice, and the third course uses red wine. There is nothing wrong with that. But the main food is still rice wine. Jiuniang, and the fifth dish is Jiuniang, and now I feel the taste of Jiuniang in my mouth, but the memory of rice wine, white wine and red wine is completely covered..."

"Sense of wholeness!" Wang Yong couldn't help but say, "General Zhang chose banquet dishes, which means that all the dishes should not exist alone, but should form a whole! Among the six dishes, Jiuniang There are too many ingredients, which leads to the watering down of several other dishes, which destroys the overall sense of the banquet.”

"If you want me to say, the key is still in the wine. Although this material can enhance the freshness, but the wine is too prominent, but it will make people drunk... If you want to play the umami, you are much worse than my husband... Hiccup!" Xiahou Dun took a drink break, and then joked directly... She looks a little drunk.

"Him?" Zhang Fei frowned immediately, "I still don't believe it, he can be better than me as an intermediate chef!"

"Husband, show her some flair?!" Xiahou Dun immediately urged.

"Come on, come on, you make me afraid of him?!" Zhang Fei yelled directly, anyway, she didn't like Cao Jun
"I didn't even say anything..." Wang Yong looked at Xiahou Dun, this girl got drunk too fast today.
