Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 442 The simplest and the least simple
Rice starts with choosing the freshest and plump rice grains.It is said that at the extreme, someone will specially select the rice grains one by one, and select the plump and white rice grains, and then use them for cooking.

Put water and rice in a special pottery pot, if there is too much water, add white charcoal to boil the water, take it out after seven to eight minutes, and control the rice.Turn the steaming tray, put a piece of white charcoal, and steam slowly with fruit charcoal until it is ripe.

Infrared rays from charcoal and special pottery pots will generate infrared rays during the heating process, which can make the rice grains more fragrant.White charcoal removes miscellaneous odors and makes the taste of rice more pure.I did not choose an iron pan to heat, but also to prevent the smell of rust from mixing with it.The rice made in this way is not easy.

Fragrant, soft, white and pure, this kind of rice is a kind of enjoyment to eat, and you can eat a bowl without any side dishes.

"This is... rice?" Le Jin has been outside all the time, although he occasionally goes to eat sunshine breakfast, but the deliciousness of the rice is not on the same level at all.If this is rice, what was it that she had eaten before?
"I didn't expect that a bowl of rice can be done to this level... Then the other dishes shouldn't be ordinary..." Cheng Yu was also feeling emotional. She didn't cook here at Sikong Mansion, so she didn't expect the food here to be really not simple .

"This is, Wang Yong's strength..." Jia Xu looked at Wang Yong, and slightly improved his evaluation.

"But no matter how you look at it, this is just fried lily with celery and fungus, right?" Cao Pi casually picked up a piece of celery and ate it into his mouth.

With a "click", the celery made a crisp sound at the moment the teeth were bitten, and then the vegetable juice burst instantly, filling the mouth, sweet, rich, refreshing...

"...This..." Cao Pi was stunned, why is celery still so crispy?Generally speaking, shouldn't it become soft and dry when it is fried on a high fire?
"...Huh?" A umami taste swept over as the aftertaste, accompanied by the subsequent rejection, "crack" "crack", highlighting the sweetness of celery, taste carefully, the aroma of fungus , and the slightly astringent taste of lily begins to stand out.

"This fungus is so crispy! By the way, is this thing really cooked?" Chen Qun ate a piece of fungus, which was so crispy that it felt like it was springing when he bit it.Its unique umami and sweetness spread in the mouth, and the taste of celery and lily is faintly felt.

"Don't say that kind of impolite!" Wang Yong retorted directly, "It must be cooked! Heat up the oil pan and stir-fry quickly, stir-fry quickly with a small degree of inversion, season, and take out of the pan! Cooking with rice Same, both are the ultimate 'skills'!"

"Used broth, right?" Xun Yu ate the lily, the sweetness of the lily was well highlighted, and the crunchy feeling was well preserved, but the faint astringency was not deliberately removed, but just It was the astringency that sublimated the taste of the whole dish.

The way of heaven is incomplete, not to pursue absolute perfection, but a slight incompleteness is the real perfection.The Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, the ultimate move, Kanglong Youhui, is not going all out, but giving [-]% of the effort, leaving [-]%, but its power is far better than going all out.

But in this dish, there is one more thing that links all the ingredients together, that is the broth and cornstarch!

"Have you eaten it?" Wang Yong smiled, "The back kitchen has always prepared broth, but for tonight's meal, when I received the order, I started to prepare it as soon as I received the order! Because the ratio is reduced, it can be boiled faster, but it is also possible It's been half an hour..."

"Chicken broth... the concentrated essence of umami, and cornstarch increases the viscosity of the dish, making the aftertaste linger in the mouth, which can't fade away for a long time... The skill is the ultimate, so to speak... you are qualified!" Xun Xun Yu nodded.

"It's not an honor to be my husband!" Wang Yong replied with a smile, it seems that he doesn't have to kneel on the washboard when he goes back tonight.

"It's just that such a quick stir-fry can have such an effect?" Cao Cao also has the qualifications of an intermediate chef, and she is not so easy to fool.Such freshness and juiciness are definitely not something that can be achieved by quick stir-frying.

"So when choosing ingredients, needless to say, put fresh ingredients into water and put them in the freezer to chill for a period of time. After taking them out, control the water and stir-fry quickly... The rapid alternation of cold and hot can not only quickly heat up vegetables, but also The juice will be locked inside the material due to shrinkage, while retaining the freshness of the ingredients..."

"Generally, it can't be done like this?" Gu Yong made a gesture, "During the process of tossing the pot, if part of the material is heated and part is not, the juice will still flow out..."

"It depends on you, how fast you go to the pot!" Wang Yong said with a smile, "If you go to the pot at full speed, and at the same time ensure that every side of the ingredients is overcooked in a short time..."

"Then how can it be done?" Gu Yong retorted subconsciously, and then realized something, "So this is the ultimate skill!"

"Yes, it is precisely because it can be done that it can be regarded as the ultimate 'skill'!" Wang Yong replied with a nod.

The disadvantage is that because there is not much juice flowing out, the three vegetables in this dish are clearly distinct, but the flavors of the other two ingredients are vaguely mixed.However, all of them are cleverly built together by the chicken soup, and because of the thickening, the aftertaste is retained for a long time, so that this dish can be regarded as a complete expression.

"What about the duck? There shouldn't be much skill in cutting ducks for nothing, right?!" Cao Pi refused to admit defeat, picked up a piece of duck meat, and ate it without any dipping sauce.

"...Eh?" Cao Pi was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little dazed. What he ate was really duck meat?Not to mention the quality of the meat, the tenderness is also very prominent, and the key point is that there is a faint smell of milk.

"No, that's not the case!" Cao Pi quickly picked up another piece, dipped it into the dipping sauce, and ate it.The flavors of vinegar, minced ginger and faint seasoning sauce not only appetize, but also further highlight the tenderness of duck meat.

"What kind of duck is this?" Cao Pi immediately looked at Wang Yong.

"To entertain everyone, I specially prepared a batch of ducks!" Wang Yong smiled, "Every day, the handyman will drive them down the river and swim for half an hour. They will also eat aquatic plants, fish and shrimps, and feed Du Kang every day. Feed them with milk. Specially invite musicians to play soothing music for them every day, and grow slowly in the most comfortable environment..."

"The life of this duck is more comfortable than that of ordinary people." Cao Chun laughed when he heard this.Is this raising ducks?It's basically raising a group of ancestors!This is delicious and delicious, not to mention, there is also wine and milk to drink, and there are musicians playing music while sleeping...

"It is precisely because of such extreme breeding that it has such a taste. Ordinary ingredients can also produce extreme tastes according to different processing methods... But it is also uncommon for musicians to complain about playing for a group of ducks." When Wang Yong said this, he was a little embarrassed.

"This vinegar...isn't that simple?" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong.

"This vinegar..." Wang Yong looked at Cao Cao, "It is said that it is old vinegar that has been buried underground for more than ten years..."

"Ten years! Just this bit of jealousy, ten years?!" Le Jin looked at Wang Yong with a look of disbelief, and exclaimed.
