Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 274: Garlic Chicken

In this era of the Qing Dynasty, the largest chicken was called Brahma chicken, also known as Brahman chicken. Its size was ten times that of ordinary chickens. The Brahman chicken can be more than one meter tall when it is an adult, and it can almost reach 1.2 meters, which is equivalent to the height of a child.

The adult female Brahman chicken weighs about 12 pounds, and the adult male Brahman chicken weighs 16 pounds, which can be called the “Big Mac” among chickens. Ordinary chickens weigh about 3 to 4 pounds when they are adults. It can be said that the weight of Brahman chickens is at least 4 times that of ordinary chickens.

This made this chicken a favorite food on the table of the United States, as early as 1850 to 1930, when it was the main source of meat in the United States, it was almost replaced by turkey.

In addition, the eggs laid by Brahmin chickens are also very large. This kind of large eggs is several times larger than ordinary eggs, and it is estimated that one egg is enough for one meal.

However, the chicken that Tong Yu is playing now is twice as big as the Brahman chicken. What is the concept?

A chicken with a height of more than three meters and a weight of nearly 50 pounds?

Seeing this scene, both the current emperor and the dragon chefs were stunned.

“What kind of chicken is this? It’s so huge? Even imported breeds are not so big!” A dragon chef exclaimed, staring at Tong Yu’s cooking station.

Zhu Yuan also came back to his senses after being stunned for a long time: “As far as I know, there is a breed called Brahman chicken in foreign countries, which can reach 1.3 meters and weigh up to 20 kilograms. If he is also a Brahman chicken, it would be too bad. too big.”

The emperor stood up from the dragon chair and looked at it for a long time before sitting back again.

“It really opened Lian’s eyes. It’s the first time I’ve seen such a big chicken. How much does it weigh~~?” The emperor said to himself with a look of surprise.

Under everyone’s astonished eyes, Tong Yu finally put the pre-prepared 【Garlic Chicken】on the cooking table.

That’s right, the name of this chicken is Garlic Chicken. It does not belong to this world, nor to the world of “food halberd”, but from the “captive of food” from the world of the highest cuisine.

Garlic chicken is a very rare ingredient even in the captive world of gourmet food, and it is a super high-quality ingredient that feeds on wild garlic that cannot be cultivated. The plump flesh is mixed with wild garlic flavors for a wonderful contrast.

Due to the decrease of wild garlic year by year, the number of garlic chickens has also begun to decrease. Although it is now possible to artificially breed with non-wild garlic feed, the taste is far less than natural.

And the garlic chicken in Tong Yu’s hands is natural garlic.

This ingredient is exchanged by Tong Yu with the privilege of the comic world. The privilege of exchanging ingredients only once in a few months, it is not a pity to use it up.

Now, this ingredient is the key to Tong Yu’s victory.

No, the ingredients of the gourmet captives are taken out, and the outcome of this game has already been decided.

Maybe other people don’t know, but Tong Yu is very clear that this is the deliciousness of the ingredients in the world of high-end gourmet food, and it is the deliciousness that cannot be compensated by cooking skills. a little.

After confirming the ingredients, Dong Yu started to cook with the Garuda knife in his hand.

Except for the different cooking methods, the cooking steps are almost the same, because the making process of oily chicken hardly changes much.

Time is passing little by little.

When half of the three sticks of incense had been burnt, Jiu Lufa had already started the work of cutting and matching.

Everyone finally saw that Jiu Lufa had picked up an ordinary kitchen knife, not the white feather belt or the huge Qinglong knife.

Seeing this, someone also sighed: “Finally, that kind of exaggerated cooking skills is no longer the case. This is what a normal chef looks like.”

“But it’s still a bit difficult for others to accept. That kind of cooking method is really unheard of.”

“Yeah, the gravy can only be perfectly locked in by sticking to frying the whole chicken carefully all the time. And Tong Yu’s chicken is so big, it definitely can’t do that!”

“Haha, if every inch of the chicken can’t be fried, the texture will be lost a lot.”

Others stared at Jiu Lu Fa and talked about it. At the same time, they also felt that the “Big Mac Chicken” brought out by Tong Yu had drawbacks, that is, the problem of over-oiling.

The key points of oil-drenched chicken are over-oiling, pouring oil, and pouring material. These three steps are all related to over-oiling.

Just imagine, a chicken weighing more than 50 kilograms, it is almost impossible to fry every part of the chicken thoroughly. There is indeed so much oil in the palace, but there is no such a huge container.

Tong Yu can use garlic chicken as an ingredient, of course, because the chicken is too bulky, it cannot be fried by ordinary methods.

In the confusion of the crowd, Tong Yu came to Zhu Yuan again, and said: Zhu Yuan, “Sir, is there a pond nearby?”

It is impossible to have a pool in the palace, good) The emperor and the Western Queen Mother liked a clean place on weekdays, and this imperial garden is one of them.

However, the Imperial Garden is in the far north, so it must have taken a lot of time in the past.

There is a pool next to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

“The pool? There’s one here,” Zhu Yuan said, pointing not far away.

Because the place is too wide, Tong Yu didn’t see a pool at the corner for a while.

If there is this pool, it will be much easier.

Tong Yu didn’t bother anymore, and said again: “Lord Zhu Yuan, I may need a lot of oil, please send someone to fetch it for me.

“How much do you want?” Zhu Yuan asked.

“At least fill the pool.” Tong Yu said.
