Imperial Marshal Feeding Log

Chapter 116 Squirrel Mandarin Fish
The end of June and the beginning of July are the holidays for all universities, and Blue Star University is no exception. However, as an interstellar university supported by the Blue Star Empire openly, there are many research institutes in Blue Star University that are under the control of the Blue Star Empire.

Although this kind of research institute is not as high-level as Ye Wenting's imperial research institute, the various researches carried out in it are not accessible to ordinary people.

Because Du Xixi is a member of Blue Star University and has a special identity, there is no need to worry about her maliciously snooping, let alone revealing all kinds of secrets after she finds out.

But Miao Miao is different, even if she has Du Xixi as a guarantor, she can be regarded as a potential sponsor of Blue Star University, but there are risks in the end, Du Xixi will not bring Miao Miao here without the consent of Blue Star University.

Therefore, when Du Xixi came to Blue Star University this time, she was very rational and alone.

Of course, those mecha soldiers are not the ones that Blue Star University should be wary of. They followed Shen Yin before, and they don’t know how many imperial secrets are stored in the chip. superior.

"Miaomiao? That name sounds pretty good!" He Yuan took off her mask completely in front of Du Xixi, and looked at the smile on her face that was obviously relaxed even though her back was still straight.

Du Xixi raised her eyebrows proudly.The name Miaomiao was decided by Du Xixi at the time, and now He Yuan is boasting that the name Miaomiao sounds good, no doubt she is exaggerating Du Xixi!

Everyone chatted a few more words about trivial things, and seeing that it was almost noon, Lin You patted the back of Du Xixi's hand lightly, and said with a smile: "We met for the first time, and we will be colleagues in the food department again from now on." , how about we cook today's lunch together, and each cook a special dish?"

In ancient times, there were friends who made friends through literature, and now there are friends who make friends through food.Du Xixi covered her mouth and smiled, and seeing He Yuan and the others nodded in agreement, she followed everyone's wishes and said, "Then I have to show my skills and conquer your stomachs!"

Zhangye's office is next to Du Xixi's office, so Du Xixi who walked up the stairs didn't know his name, but at this moment, he was the first to speak after Du Xixi expressed his position: "We The Bureau of Cultural Relics has long heard His Majesty Shen Yin talk about Madam's craftsmanship, we can say that we have been looking forward to it for a long time, Madam must do more, while conquering our stomachs, we must also feed it!"

The serious-looking man was unexpectedly able to speak. Du Xixi took another look at him, and saw the hidden desire to win in his eyes, so she curled her lips into a smile: "Then you can't be merciful, you have to Try to conquer my stomach!"

Desire to win or lose, Du Xixi also has it.After all, the heights are extremely cold, and someone has to come to compete with her, so that Du Xixi can have a real sense of "I'm just that good".

Since you invite the battle, then I will fight.There is coming and going, and it is fair.

Everyone got up and walked towards the classroom downstairs. The inside has been transformed into a "big kitchen" enough for hundreds of people to teach at the same time. It looks well-equipped, and it is obvious that a lot of money has been invested in it.

Du Xixi and the others smiled and looked at each other, and slowly corrected their attitudes, especially after Du Xixi turned around and put on the apron, she looked at her palms and felt a rare sense of nervousness.

This feeling of tension seems to be returning to the time when I participated in the first culinary competition on Blue Star.

As the new heir of the Du family, the hope of the whole family is placed on her. She can't lose, so she can only try to suppress the panic and anxiety in her heart, and use all her efforts to compete with those who are ten years older than herself. Even dozens of chefs compete.

but……

In the final stage of the competition, Du Xixi, who had been watched by everyone, calmed down instead, because she found that any nervousness was unnecessary, and her strength was enough for her to stand on the stage with her head held high, using His hard work for more than ten years has won the most eye-catching glory.

Thinking of this, Du Xixi smiled lightly, and washed her sweaty hands under clean water carefully. She was doing the standard seven-step hand washing method seriously, and she never let go of any dirt. .

Lin You didn't know how to cook, so he was just an outside audience at the moment, sitting on a chair beside and watching everyone play freely.She noticed a slight change in Du Xixi's eyes, and she raised her eyebrows to understand.

It seems that Du Xixi is serious.

The director of the school affairs office, who was rarely sitting in the office, quietly changed his posture, paying attention to everyone in a more comfortable posture, and waiting for the delicious food by the way.

Once Du Xixi became serious, she seemed to be the only one in this world. She didn't pay attention to what kind of dishes Zhang Ye and the others were cooking. The head of the fish was chopped off.

Today, let's make squirrel mandarin fish!
The squirrel mandarin fish is a dish with both color and flavor. The orthodox method is to carp the carp into the bone, carve patterns on the fish, add seasoning and marinate, drag the egg yolk paste, fry it in a hot oil pan until it is tender, and pour the hot Sweet and sour marinade, shaped like a mouse, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet and sour.

Among the many dishes, the squirrel mandarin fish is not difficult to cook. The only technical difficulty is that the lines on the fish meat are cut into diamond shapes with a flower knife, so that the fried squirrel mandarin fish will be delicious. The strips stand up.

Du Xixi squinted her eyes, kept moving her hands, cut open the snow-white fish belly, and made a small opening at the back of the fish, and took off the fish tail along the fish spine, and the two thick pieces of fish were submissive. lying on the cutting board.

An ordinary kitchen knife has been played with in her hands, and she was very sharp to remove most of the fish bones just now, but now it seems that the automatic body is used as a roller, and after a burst of quick cutting, the meaty fish meat It has been cut into a regular rhombus.

This shape, this speed, cannot be achieved without hard work.

Lin You squinted her eyes. Having met many elite talents, she could naturally see the meaning behind this good sword skill, but she had already learned about it from Xingwang. Didn't show anything.

The mandarin fish wrapped in dry starch took a hot oil bath freely in the hot oil. The sound of the oil sizzled like the "squeak" sound of a mouse. After the frying, it looked like a squirrel with its head raised. Xixi thought it was a good name for Squirrel Mandarin Fish.

The prepared sauce is thickened with starch and poured on the fried mandarin fish. The yellow and red are perfectly blended together. The aroma is like a squirrel with its head upturned. Du Xixi put it On the side table, after cleaning the pot, they started to cook new dishes.

Since it was agreed to show off its skills, Du Xixi will not be stingy and only show a good dish.She picked up a piece of fat and thin pork belly with an understated expression, but the kitchen knife skill she used was not so easy.

The meat slices half the thickness of a palm, almost all of the same size, were stacked neatly together, but Du Xixi started cutting potatoes and washing vegetables.

This posture, it is like making a table of dishes to be satisfied!

The few people on the side were attracted by Du Xixi's movement. The special dishes they had in hand hadn't been cooked yet, so why did Du Xixi already start cooking other dishes?It's too shocking!
After receiving the requesting gaze from the four people in Zhangye, Lin You coughed, and after attracting Du Xixi's suspicious eyes, he said gently: "Xixi, it's enough to cook a good dish."

Lin You, a bystander, could see everything on the field clearly, so he naturally knew that Du Xixi's dish of unknown name was already the best in the field.

Just this one thing has already overshadowed Zhangye and the others.If Du Xixi comes a few more, won't these few good seedlings who have finally been dug out from the cultural relics bureau be beaten by Du Xixi to the point of losing confidence?
"It's really a good dish." Du Xixi blinked her big eyes innocently, she pointed to the squirrel mandarin fish, and then pointed to the remaining freshly prepared ingredients, "Squirrel mandarin fish is what I want to show to you. You are good at dishes, and the other dishes are just made casually."

Having said that, both Du Xixi and Lin You knew that since the dishes Du Xixi planned to cook, it must not be described as "casual".Look, just preparing a dish is already fine enough, is it possible that the prepared dish will be rough?
But Du Xixi has already said that, and everyone can't complain about Du Xixi's "foul". Zhang Ye and the others looked at each other dumbfounded, and they could only cook their specialty dishes more seriously. Xixi approached and looked curiously at the squirrel mandarin fish.

"Squirrel mandarin fish? The name is quite vivid." Lin You doesn't know much about food. If it wasn't for the fact that Blue Star University wanted to set up a food department, and she, the director of the school affairs office, was the first to be responsible for it, I'm afraid the food will be successful in the future. Only when it becomes popular will she notice food.

Smelling the scent of squirrel and mandarin fish, Lin You swallowed unconsciously, then silently moved his head away, fearing that he would uncontrollably go up and take a bite.

Lin You thinks that food is really a magical existence. Before that, she made up the knowledge of food temporarily. In just a few days, she watched all the live replays of Du Xixi, and also went to other corners of Xingwang to search for videos related to food. , I even went to the Bureau of Cultural Relics for a special trip, and at the same time, I read a lot of food literature provided by the Bureau of Cultural Relics.

But whether it is a live video or a written record, it is not as attractive as the fresh squirrel mandarin fish in front of you.

"Yes." Du Xixi rolled her eyes with a smile, and answered her while making other homely dishes, "The reason why it is called squirrel mandarin fish is not only because it looks like a squirrel, but also because it looks like a squirrel. It makes a noise like a squirrel when it's fried."

Lin You nodded thoughtfully, and flashed in his mind the origin of similar food that Xixi had mentioned during the live broadcast, and then compared the documents and materials of the Cultural Relics Bureau. slidely different.

The specific difference... Lin You couldn't tell.But it seemed that Du Xixi knew far more than what was recorded in the literature.At least there is no record of squirrel mandarin fish in the documents of the Cultural Relics Bureau.

But when he was looking for a job in his position, the director of the school affairs office only wanted to take care of all kinds of things inside Blue Star University. Although Lin You was curious about the secrets of Du Xixi, he was not qualified, and he didn't want to delve into it.

Why, the imperial princess is not allowed to see the books in the palace?Maybe the collection of books in the palace contains food knowledge that the cultural relics bureau does not know about.

Although Zhangye's cooking speed was slightly slower than Du Xixi's, but Du Xixi looked at their special dishes put on the table, and felt that their craftsmanship was actually very good.

As expected of the talents selected by the Bureau of Cultural Relics, these dishes seem to be learned from Du Xixi's live broadcast, and there are still some flaws in the details, but just by looking at them, Du Xixi can tell that their cooking is already very hot. That's right, at least it's enough to be a professor in the gastronomy department and teach students food.

Du Xixi quietly graded these dishes with his gaze, and Zhang Ye and the others waited with bated breath, for fear that they would not be able to accept Du Xixi's answer.

One of the most tense is Zhangye.

Don't look at Zhang Ye's serious face, as if he has experienced strong winds and waves, and he can face everything calmly, but in fact, Zhang Ye just joined the cultural relics bureau three years ago. Counting his age, he is only 95 years old this year, compared to Duxi Xi is only twenty years older.

His age is regarded as young in the cultural relics bureau, so he is afraid that others will look down on him, and he will work hard every day, so he gradually develops the problem of strong desire to win.

The master of the Cultural Relics Bureau who took Zhangye didn’t think that Zhangye’s desire to win was wrong. People need to be ambitious, and some desire to win is normal. The desire to win and lose that aroused has been slowly suppressed.

As Du Xixi thought, before Zhang Ye took the initiative to open his mouth to express his desire to win and lose to Du Xixi, it was indeed an invitation to fight. Even after Du Xixi accepted the challenge calmly, Zhang Ye had already imagined it in his mind. After looking at various dishes, they finally chose the stewed lion head dish that was on the table at the moment.

But when half of his braised lion head was done, Du Xixi had already cooked the squirrel mandarin fish, which shocked Zhang Ye. After all, he thought his speed was fast enough, but Du Xixi did not The speed surpassed the four of them.

Even, looking at the dish of squirrel mandarin fish, the quality obviously surpassed theirs.

If it was an even match with a fight, then Zhangye would definitely beg Du Xixi for an answer right now, but Du Xixi crushed him and them, so he was a little nervous.

I am looking forward to Du Xixi's evaluation, but also worried about Du Xixi's evaluation.

"I think you are all very good culinary experts, and the dishes you cook are very good." Du Xixi nodded, and after saying this, the four of Zhangye were relieved, thinking that they were still cooking just now. The little heart squeezed by the invisible big hand came back to life.

But, is Du Xixi really that gentle?the answer is negative.When it comes to cooking, Du Xixi turns into a poisonous tongue in minutes!
"However, there are too many things you need to improve." She was gentle one second, but turned cold the next second. The five people, including Lin You, couldn't help shivering.

Du Xixi commented: "First of all, this braised lion's head, your minced meat is well cut, very delicate, and you put some horseshoes in the lion's head, which is a good way, but your sauce is too much , I’m afraid people with strong tastes will love them very much.”
