Dishes that don’t shine are not good dishes

Ice and Fire (cloth)

“Brother, are you planning to make sugar-fried chestnuts?” Xiaoyun asked.

Can’t help but Xiaoyun thinks otherwise, the iron pot in front of Xie Yunfei, the black sand in the iron pot, and the chestnuts that are mixed with the sand, only partially exposed… The combination of the three can only make Xiaoyun Think of the option ‘sugar-fried chestnuts’.

In fact, Xiaoyun is not the only one who thinks so. The audience, reporters, and judges at the venue, as long as they have a little knowledge of Chinese cuisine, allAfter reacting, he understood Yunfei’s next plan.

It’s just a pity that they or they only guessed the beginning, process and result, but they are far from the reality.

At this time, Akane Kubotao had let go of the scraper and shovel, rubbing the medicine given by Xie Yunfei, and looked at the boy not far away with her hands in the air. Akane Kubotamo actually knows this snack, and the recipes from Zhongdian Research have recorded many Chinese dim sum production processes.

Make a small opening on the surface of the chestnuts, pour the chestnuts into an iron pot with fried chestnut stones, stir and mix with the fried chestnut stones, then heat on high heat, stir fry the chestnuts and fried chestnut stones continuously with a shovel, when the chestnuts begin to emit fragrance, Pour in the honey and maltose and continue to sauté until all the chestnuts are coated with a thin layer of sugar.

It sounds very simple, but if you want to cook the core of the chestnuts without overcooking the outer layers of the chestnuts, you need quite superb cooking skills.

Akane Kubotao has never learned such a skill, and although Xie Yunfei has never possessed it either, he has a sense of touch that is comparable to the Huohou skill and surpasses ordinary people.

If someone puts Xie Yunfei into an iron pan and mixes the chestnuts with fried chestnuts and takes them out, and puts them in front of him and observes carefully, he will find that Xie Yunfei has not scratched the surface of the chestnuts, because the size is much larger than ordinary chestnuts. A hole that is too small will have no effect on these wild chestnuts, while a hole that is too large will affect the uniformity of the heat of the finished product.

But on the other hand, chestnuts that have not undergone any treatment are very easy to explode during the heating process, and they can even be said to be a dangerous product.

Xie Yunfei also tried nearly a hundred times in the cooking space before he fully established the next cooking method.

“Huh…”

After a long sigh of relief, Xie Yunfei stepped on the bellows. Although the stoves used by the ancients are a bit troublesome compared to the stoves that use gas and natural gas today, they are more suitable for some dishes that require high-temperature cooking.

Obviously, stir-fried chestnuts in sugar, at least Xie Yunfei’s version, is such a dish.

Under the heating of the stove, the temperature of the iron pot is slowly rising, and then there are fried chestnut stones on the bottom, fried chestnut stones on the middle layer, and fried chestnut stones on the upper layer.

About 20 to 30 centimeters above the iron pot, people can clearly see that the light and shadow here are distorted.

That was the scene that only appeared after the air was heated, and at this time, less than a minute had passed since Xie Yunfei lit the stove.

“Hey, hey, hey! Is this made of chestnut charcoal?” Some viewers complained.

His words aroused the approval of many people around.

Anyone who has a little knowledge of cooking knows that except for a small number of dishes, most of the dishes, especially those made in a wok, in order not to turn them into a plate of black charcoal, the temperature of the flame should not be too high , or the duration should not be too long.

Fortunately, the iron pot with chestnuts in the meeting place was already very hot, but the young chef named Xie Yunfei didn’t seem to intend to do anything.

After another minute or so, due to the high temperature, some of the fried chestnut stones on the top burst out of the pot.

This was a very dangerous scene, and some audience members even exclaimed.

But to their surprise, the young man standing in front of the iron pot still didn’t move, but slowly closed his eyes.

The noise and hustle and bustle in the venue did not affect Xie Yunfei. With [Precise], [Efficiency], and [Concentration] turned on, he can definitely rank firmly even among the contestants in terms of concentration when cooking. Into the top three. The reason why he didn’t start frying the chestnuts as the audience said was just because – the temperature he needed hadn’t been reached yet.

Another minute passed…

At the judges’ seat, several judges began to shake their heads. Most of these judges were gourmets. Although they were able to tell the subtleties of the dishes after they were served, they never knew the specific details.

On the other hand, the four-star special chef judges’ expressions became serious at this time. They watched Xie Yunfei closely, as if the young man in the distance would do something amazing next.

Without making the judges wait long, Xie Yunfei, who was standing in front of the iron pot, opened his eyes the moment the stove was ignited for the fourth minute.

Instead of picking up the large shovel provided by the food research staff, he directly raised his hands, then turned his fists into palms, and stabbed straight into the fried chestnut stones mixed with chestnuts.

“Ah!” XN

This was a scene that no one expected. Even the special chef judges who had already guessed, they or they did not guess that Xie Yunfei would use this kind of cooking method that was almost self-harming.

“Brother!” In the auditorium, Xiaoyun stood up abruptly, with anxiety and worry written all over her face.

Feifei’s performance is not much better than Xiaoyun’s, but it is slightly different from Xiaoyun’s situation. She was taught by her grandfather when she was a child, and she spent a period of time studying in China when she grew up. After the initial panic, she remembered A special cooking technique that is only spread in China Shaolin Temple.

Most of the dishes can be cooked with only one hand without using shovels, spoons and other kitchen utensils.

If I remember correctly, it seems to be called… Iron Sand Palm?

On the side, under the persuasion of Wu Shishi and Yunlong, Xiaoyun also gradually calmed down. Insights on Yunfei’s arms and hands withdrawn from fried chestnut stonesPointing to the fact that there were no traces of high temperature burns on the surface, she breathed a sigh of relief, but then, as if thinking of something, she pulled La Feifei’s sleeve, “Sister Feifei, did you teach brother how to use ‘qi’? ?”

Feifei shook her head. She, Feifei, Yunlong, and Wu Shishi, because they were born in a Chinese cooking family, have more or less practiced “Qi”, but maybe they are not talented enough in this area, except for Except for Yunlong, the other three women all had a taste and did not go any further.

Yunlong has just trained his ‘Qi’ to the point where it can be used to assist in cooking. As for going further, like Xie Yunfei, he can go in and out of high-temperature fried chestnut stones without being injured… Let alone Yunlong, Wu Shishi and others, Even Xiaoyun’s father and Xie Yunfei’s second uncle, Luo Tianyou, might not be able to do it.
