Dishes that don’t shine are not good dishes

Outside and Inside (Ball)

In contrast, Xie Yunfei looked focused. If you look closely, you can even find that he is closing his eyes tightly.

There was darkness in front of my eyes.

This was Xie Yunfei’s feeling at the moment, but he didn’t care. In other words, he was a little happy with the situation. The temporary closure of vision means that the other four senses are more sensitive, and concentrated on Xie Yunfei at this time, it is his sense of touch, which is starting to move towards the critical point.

With the right hand holding the handle, the index finger is slightly raised, and the distance between the fingertip and the surface of the iron ball is two centimeters. This is like putting your hands directly on the fire, which is a pain that many people cannot bear. But Xie Yunfei endured it, and even his expression didn’t change at all.

When the temperature is high, turn down the flame, and when the temperature is low, turn up the flame.

Xie Yunfei remembered every cooking process and every time he adjusted the flame in his heart. This is the first attempt, and there is nothing wrong with failing. If you want to cook luminous dishes without solid basic skills, you need a lot of attempts and research.

Xie Yunfei understands this, and he has always done the same.

As for the result…

“It’s now!”

The time spent by Taki Kadozaki was reduced by half. After turning the iron ball kitchen utensils for more than ten minutes, Xie Yunfei turned off the stove.Flame on the stage opened his eyes at the same time, and raised his hand to signal Tang Xin to step back.

Then, he took out a pair of heat-insulating gloves from the kitchen utensils box. After putting them on his hands, without wasting any time, he directly removed the iron ball kitchen utensils from the chain, and then twisted his hands clockwise and counterclockwise slightly. The ball kitchen utensil was divided into two parts again.

A rice ball with a slightly yellowish surface fell out of it. Tang Xin on the side was already prepared to catch it with a slipping net.

“Thanks.”

“you are welcome.”

After a brief exchange, Xie Yunfei looked at the rice ball that Tang Xin put on the cutting board. Because of the closeness to the inner wall of the iron ball kitchen utensils, the surface of the rice ball has been cooked and has a little hard feeling.

But it’s not really rice crust!

Xie Yunfei judged in his heart. Holding the kitchen knife in his right hand, he gently pressed the rice ball with his left hand. After groping carefully back and forth, he raised the knife and cut the rice ball in half.

“Sure enough, the inside is not fully cooked yet.”

Xiaoyun, who came to the kitchen table at some point, said so after seeing a large amount of water vapor emerging from the inside of the rice ball, as well as the sticky rice.

Feifei stood beside Xiaoyun, but her attention was on the tin ball that Xie Yunfei took out from the rice ball.

Unlike the previous tin balls that could reflect people’s shadows on the surface when they were just completed, the tin balls at this time, although not sticky with rice, were also stained with a layer of faint yellow.

“Next, is it ready to open all the air holes on the tin ball?”

Xie Yunfei gave the answer with practical actions.

He took tweezers and removed all the tinfoil balls on the surface of the tin ball that were used to block the holes. Then he picked up the steel needles on the kitchen table, pierced them one by one, and then pulled them out from the opposite hole.

During the whole process, Xie Yunfei didn’t speak. He didn’t even care that the table across from him was already full of people. He just kept accelerating and accelerating.

Two minutes after the rice ball was cut open, Xie Yunfei finished inspecting the tin ball. Without wasting time, he fetched the wok with the remaining soup, dipped some on the surface of the tin ball with a brush, put the tin ball back into a rice ball, and covered it with another, Press firmly.

It wasn’t until this step was completed that Xie Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief. Temporarily withdrawing from his self-world, he raised his head and glanced at the people standing by the kitchen table, with the corners of his mouth curled up to the sides, “The next step is to bake.”

Leaving aside risotto dishes, there are actually two ways to talk about crispy rice dishes. One is deep-frying, which is the most common method in restaurants. Mix the steamed rice and starch according to a certain ratio, and then put it into the oil pan. The second one is born out of the most primitive version of baking, or put it in the oven, or put it directly on the fire.

Like Kazaki Taki, Xie Yunfei chose the latter method. However, unlike Taki Kadozaki, the method used by Xie Yunfei is not to put an iron ball kitchen utensil in the middle, but to use a steel needle to pass through the rice ball and tin ball, and bake it directly on the fire.

There are also requirements for the angle at which the steel needle penetrates. It cannot be the dividing line between two rice balls, but must pass through the two rice balls at the same time. There must be more than three steel needles interlaced with each other and with a large interlaced angle.

After finishing the penetration of the steel needles, Xie Yunfei ignited the coals prepared by the help cooks and put them under the grill. He held the three steel needles in his right hand, and controlled the rotation of the rice balls with his left hand.

The smell of saffron and rosemary constantly overflows from the surface of the rice ball.

Xiaoyun sniffed her nose, with an intoxicated expression on her face, “It smells so good.”

“Indeed.” Feifei nodded, but her expression was a little strange.

Unlike Taki Kadozaki’s whole process of cooking in the dark, Xie Yunfei’s second half of cooking can be said to be completely under the covers. Although doing so strengthens the control of the heat, but relatively, the flavor of the spices in the rice may slip away a little during the cooking process.

Xiaoyun didn’t see this, but Feifei did. If it were her, she seemed to have no other choice if she wanted to achieve the uniformity of the temperature of the rice grains as much as possible.

As for Xie Yunfei…

The baking process continues.

The thermal conductivity of tin foil is actually better than that of iron. At this time, after heating, the temperature of each part of the solder ball inside the rice ball is almost the same. In other words, the rice that is in contact with the surface of the tin ball has the greatest balance in terms of heat.

One lap, two laps, three laps…

About five minutes later, Xie Yunfei suddenly raised his head, and said to Xiaoyun who was standing by the kitchen counter, “Xiaoyun, come and take over.”

“Eh?” Xiaoyun was taken aback when she heard that, but then she nodded her head vigorously, “Okay!” While speaking, she glanced at Feifei who was standing beside her.

Xiaoyun quickly cleared her hands, asked for an apron from the kitchen helper, put it on, and then went to her cousin’s side to take over the work in hand. While twirling the rice balls on the steel needle, or crispy rice balls, he looked at Xie Yunfei.

“How long will this be baked?”

“Well… five minutes.”

While answering, Xie Yunfei walked to the stove. There was a wok on the stove, which contained the leftover soup from the previous use.

Turn on the stove and heat up the soup. Take tiger prawns, cut squids, and clams. When the soup boils, add tiger prawns, squid slices and clams.Add water starch to thicken the sauce, and use high heat to collect the juice!
