Food: The opening play far moon future

Chapter 127: Lion’s Head.

Lion’s head, a traditional dish in Chinese Huaiyang cuisine, has the characteristics of snow-white color, tender meat, clear aroma and mellow taste, suitable for all seasons.

The traditional method is to chop 60% fat meat and 40% lean meat with green onion, ginger, eggs and other ingredients into meat puree, making fist-sized meatballs, which can be steamed or braised red, fat but not greasy.

Now in this curry meatball pasta, Liu Yi made the meatballs into a lion’s head, which Suwon and others did not expect. Cook was also stunned for a moment, and he didn’t expect Liu Di to actually use this trick.

“Is it also improved? Lion’s head meatballs, what a domineering name… However, the color of this meatball is white, so it should be because of the addition of cod meat, right? ”

Thoth asked.

Liu Yi nodded and explained, “I used a small amount of pork, and then added the tender cod meat, and fused it together to make meatballs. ”

Mizuhara and the others nodded, and then took the lead in picking up a lion’s head to taste it.

In another place, Cook also hesitated for a moment and used a knife and fork to cut the lion’s head in half. When he saw that the inside of the meatballs was plain, his expression of disdain became even stronger.

“The multi-layered nature of meatballs determines its deliciousness, and what you make like this is just plain pork cod meat… Cook said this and still brought half of the lion’s head to his mouth and gently took a bite. ”

Similarly, Mizuhara Fuyumi and others also tasted it, the taste of the first bite was not very strong, the taste was relatively ordinary, and it did not have the powerful impact of Cook’s cuisine just now.

“The taste is not particularly prominent, compared to the taste of Cook’s meatballs just now, it is much worse…”

Suwon thought to himself after tasting the first bite, but with the second bite, the taste began to change.

“Well?”

Thoth and others also noticed the difference in this meatball.

“This meatball is baked in the oven…” The surface has a medium charred and crispy feel, but the tenderness of the cod meat inside is completely preserved. And this crisp taste, it’s lotus root dicing! As you chew, the stronger the flavor becomes. ”

John exclaimed.

Cook also unknowingly ate half a fist-sized meatball, and his expression gradually changed from disdain just now to solemnity. He picked up the other half of the lion meat and began to look at it carefully.

“It looks like it is obviously a very ordinary meatball, why does the taste become more and more delicious with continuous chewing and tasting, and this clear fragrance on the tip of the tongue… You actually put in green tea! ”

After Cook finished speaking, he raised his head to look at Liu Yi, and his face finally had a look of surprise.

Green tea, also known as Green· in Europe and other places. Tea is one of the main types of tea in China and even the world.

This ingredient, or drinking product, is made by taking new leaves or buds of tea plants, without fermentation, through killing, shaping, drying and other processes, which retains the natural substances of fresh leaves to the greatest extent and contains many nutrients.

Because the green color and tea soup preserve the green style of fresh tea, hence the name.

In green tea, it is divided into more than a dozen varieties, common ones are fried green tea, Zhenmei, rain tea, West Lake Longjing, flat fried green, steamed green tea and so on.

And Liu Di used the high quality of green tea this time – West Lake Longjing.

West Lake Longjing is one of the top ten famous teas in China, which is produced in the mountains around Longjing Village, West Lake in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, and hence the name, with a history of more than 1200 years, this tea is flat and straight, the color is tender and green, the aroma is tender and high, the taste is fresh and sweet, and the bottom of the leaves is delicate and flowering. Placed in the world is also one of the top teas.

Liu Di did not expect to be in Ristorante· F’s kitchen actually has such good tea. I accidentally found it when I opened the refrigerator just now.

John Xun also knew that Liu Yi used the West Lake Longjing in his dishes.

“Oh, my tea, Liu Yi, you actually used the West Lake Longjing that I put in the refrigerator, that is a gift from my Chinese friend!”

John Xun said with a distressed look.

“Oh, it’s okay Mr. John, I’ll compensate you when I have time to go to China~”

Liu Yi said with a smile.

“Oh, that’s great.”

Before Thoth could recover from his surprise, he took another bite of the lion’s head and savored the taste.

“I didn’t expect the aroma of green tea and cod to be so well matched, and the aroma mixture made people appetite… And the graininess in the mouth is not just lotus! Is this caviar? ”

Thoth looked at Liu Di and asked…….

Liu Yi smiled again and said, “That’s right, it’s caviar, caviar granularity and lotus root diced can also be matched, and because it is also seafood, it can also enhance the flavor of cod meat, increase the taste and enhance the deliciousness.” ”

This time, Cook directly sent the remaining half of the meatballs into his mouth, and he also felt it… It is the touch of caviar jumping in the mouth, and every grain can be clearly felt.

Burst.

With chewing, the caviar is bitten and cracked, and the feeling that comes with it when it is broken, is a little fascinating. Not only that, but the delicious taste inside the caviar burst out at the same time.

The taste mixed with meatballs and other ingredients shocks the entire mouth! Can’t stop at all!

Cook couldn’t stop at all, and when he turned around, he found that a whole lion’s head had been eaten, and all that was left was the pasta that had not yet been tasted in the middle of the plate.

Haven’t eaten enough, it’s gone?

Not only Cook felt this way in his heart, but also Fuyumi Mizuhara, Toth and others. With a little regret, everyone could only continue to taste the rest of the pasta.

Still rolled up the pasta with a fork and sent it to his mouth, and the eyes of several people were dull.

Then, his hands couldn’t stop, faster than eating the meatballs just now.

“This side is so good to eat 0.7, but the lubrication is chewy!”

“The smell of this pasta… This is the taste of cod, is cod added when making curry paste? It’s not right, only the taste, I don’t see the cod at all. ”

John wondered.

Cook also discovered this, but he had no way of knowing how Liu Di did it, and even the pasta was scented with cod. But in the process of eating, I didn’t fully eat cod meat, I only tasted it when I ate meatballs just now.

“Oh, it’s actually very simple, I removed the bones after treating the cod, and then took the bones to the soup, and then used the soup to make the noodles…”

Everyone present was not a rookie, and when Liu Yi said this, they all understood what was going on. [To be continued.] 】。
