Reincarnating to Become a Japanese Chef God
Chapter 709: Tofu's 3 ensemble (part 2)
The swan song of tofu dishes?
Xia Yu is trying to bring to the table the masterpiece of the former fairy fairy.
"ten minutes!"
Going through the process again, Xia Yu smiled at Lei Zhe and Andrea: "Please wait ten minutes!"
After speaking, roll up your sleeves.
First, standing in front of the stove, Xia Yu lifted an oil drum and poured fresh food grease into the iron pan that was just set up on the stove.
This is a special frying pan.
Next to them, there are two other iron pots that are exactly the same, both of which are clean, and different processes will be carried out later.
The three pots correspond to the three main points of "Tofu Trio".
Every point will be cooked and completed in one of the pots. When the three are in one, it is the true ultimate trio!
"Frying pan?"
Seeing Xia Yu pouring oil and opening fire, a group of people couldn't help being surprised.
"What tofu dishes need to be fried?!"
This is Qing Mu Zong Tai rubbing his bald head and asking in a dull voice.
"Fried tofu?"
Kamahara and the hostess are thinking, "Well, this dish is also considered the main force in Chinese cuisine, and many restaurants can order it. In this step of frying, pay special attention to let the tofu taste, but not to make the tofu break... "
"Yes, if the soft tofu is fried, the breakage rate is very high, right? Common soft tofu is not suitable for frying." The hostess whispered.
Hearing the whispers, Dojima Gin also blended in, saying: "Soft tofu and soft tofu are often collectively referred to as southern tofu in Chinese cuisine. Old tofu and hard tofu are called northern tofu."
"According to the production method, the southern tofu is gypsum tofu, and the northern tofu is the salted tofu. So from a cooking point of view, the watery and tender southern tofu is suitable for hot pot and soup, and the northern tofu has good elasticity and stronger aroma, suitable for frying and braising , Stir-fry and other cooking treatments..."
A voice came in suddenly, interrupting the discussion:
"But Chef Xia prepared southern tofu, right?"
Andrea smiled cleverly, fingers painted with lavender nail polish, fixedly pointing to the table, the plate was dripping with water, and under the light, the color was milky white and the texture of tofu was delicate.
Different from the northern tofu, the southern tofu has a more snowy white characteristic, which can be distinguished at a glance.
Seeing a group of people shut their mouths, Andrea's lips curled up with a playful smile: "So, there is no need to mention what kind of fried tofu. These basic mistakes of picking the wrong ingredients, Chef Xia will not make."
What the hell is it?
"There will be no stronger tofu dishes..."
Lei Zhe emphasized again, but before he finished the first half of his sentence, his pupils shrank suddenly.
Hot oil, guessing that the oil temperature is almost the same, Xia Yu seemed very calm, and moved a small stainless steel conditioning basin, and then poured a lot of debris and debris into the basin.
A scent of beans radiated from the residue.
"This is... Okara?"
The hostess Ryoko Lina, her eyes widened in surprise, her eyes surprised.
More than okara.
Xia Yu stretched out his hand to the female kitchen chef, did not speak, Tamagawa Ayaka knew what he needed, opened a steamer, took two steamed taro, sliced directly into the bowl, mashed it into puree, and then put it Give a bowl full of taro mash to the chef.
Next, this step is very clear.
Witnessing Xia Yu mixing bean dregs and taro puree, carefully washing her clean hands, constantly rubbing the mud.
"Bean dregs, taro mash, what is this?"
Everyone's questions were not answered as the cooking progressed, but instead accumulated more and more.
Okara!
Taro mash!
Ryoko Lina's slender and beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and her bright and energetic eyes focused on Xia Yu's every move, not letting go of any tiny details.
Soon, the mashed taro was mixed with the fried bean dregs, and some soy sauce and bean paste were added to taste. Xia Yu saw a layer of sweat on his forehead, but he was seriously waving his knife, banging bang bang bang, accompanied by the wrong way. Sound, sections of flesh-colored flakes, two-finger wide and finger-long, neatly stacked on the chopping board.
"Hey hey hey..."
I grabbed these flesh-colored flakes with my hands, and threw them all into the boiling oil pan.
Suddenly, the melodious cooking music echoed in the patio open-air kitchen, the rhythm was very lively.
Soon, the exaggerated fragrance poured out.
Andrea has a small nose like a puppy, sniffing constantly, her cheeks flushed slightly and said: "What, what is this? Is it a dish or a fragment of a dish? This taste is really amazing! "
The mixture of taro and soybean flavor stimulated her body and mind, and her beautiful eyes gradually became misty.
No one answered her.
Cooking is still going on at a bright pace.
It was ten minutes, ten minutes, Xia Yu wouldn't delay for a second.
""Dried tofu", done!"
Staring at the flakes floating in the oil pan, for him who has the Dzogchen blast, it is too easy to control the fire. Xia Yu can guarantee that the point of "dried tofu" alone will not be surpassed by the reincarnation of Shaoan and Bei fairy.
So, the first puzzle of "Tofu Trio" is done!
"There are two points left: "Tofu Noodle" and "Thickened Tofu"!"
After removing the fried tofu to control the oil, Xia Yu discarded the oil pan, turned around cleanly, went to wash his hands, and then stood in front of a special kneading table.
"Give me tofu!"
He said.
"How much?" Hojo Miyoko asked.
"half!"
With that, he threw a stick wrapped in thick cloth to the female chef.
Miyoko Hojo unwrapped layer by layer, and inside was a sharp bamboo blade. Seeing the encouragement in Kamahue's eyes, she inhaled, "I will do the best!"
This female student with a strong and iron-fisted physique specializes in Chinese cuisine. Needless to say, she was appointed as a swordsman. She did not even shy away from it, and immediately swung a light bamboo blade!
Huh huh!
Ten seconds later, Miyoko Hojo brought a plate of sliced tofu to Xia Yu.
"Good knifeman!"
A small compliment, Xia Yu took the plate of tofu and immediately buried her head.
Here, there is a key process——
Control water!
The soft tofu has a lot of water, and the excess water is superfluous for the subsequent cooking and will ruin the taste.
The original recipe is not to cut the tofu, using a whole piece of heavy stone, without crushing the tofu, to squeeze the water rich in the soft tofu.
However, this treatment is not suitable for selling on the spot, it takes a long time.
Therefore, Xia Yu had his own considerations, no matter what, he only had one goal at this time——
Quickly remove excess water.
Hiss!
A thick layer of kitchen paper was laid on the countertop, and the tofu pieces were re-spliced like a puzzle and arranged on the kitchen paper.
When everyone saw that Xia Yu had brought a bright kitchen knife, they were suddenly stupefied.
"what!"
"What is he going to do? Cut tofu on paper?"
Before the discussion started, Raizhe, Dojima Gin, and Andrea closed their mouths.
Snapped!
With a beat of the kitchen knife, the dazzling light dangled, and everyone looked intently, hey.
The blade of the knife seemed to slap on the tofu block swiftly, but it used extremely delicate force. The tofu was not broken and preserved intact, and the kitchen paper underneath absorbed the seepage water, and the traces spread.
So cycle.
Happiness!
Just as this was done, when it was about to end, the kitchen knife that was falling suddenly sank.
Lei Zhe said in astonishment, "This is to..."
Still slap, but this time, the slap is not to remove moisture, but to smash the tofu.
Everyone stared at the chopper that gradually moved away.
And the nearby camera clearly recorded the changes in the tofu underneath that the ice and snow melted after the kitchen knife was removed.
A pool of finely crushed tofu mud was spread on the wet paper!
