Chapter 511 A Delicacy Created with the Theme of Balancing Power! Shen Jiayue’s Mushroom Stuffed Meat! 【Please Subscribe】

"Xubao, if you can't use up your minced meat, can you give me some?"

When he got off work in the evening, Lin Xu took some fresh mushrooms from the store and planned to make mushroom soup tomorrow morning.

Shen Jiayue was in a hurry to cook at the moment, so she took it over without politeness, and removed the mushroom roots in small steps, so that the mushrooms formed concave circular umbrellas.

Later, you only need to fill in the meat filling, and you can put it in the air fryer for frying.

Shen Jiayue's face was filled with anticipation at the thought of these plump white mushrooms being made into delicious delicacies.

Lin Xu said while stuffing meat on the chicken legs:

"OK, no problem."

All the chicken legs were stuffed with meat filling. Lin Xu handed the rest to Shen Jiayue and pointed:

"Spread a layer of dry starch inside the mushroom cap to increase the adhesion, otherwise the meat filling will easily fall off. Don't sprinkle too much, otherwise the taste will be bad."

"Oh...thank you Xu Bao, I can definitely do it well."

As long as she doesn't use a knife or touch the stove, Shen Jiayue can still do well in other aspects, at least much better than some young masters and eldest ladies who can't make instant noodles.

Lin Xu set up a pan, poured two centimeters of vegetable oil into the pan, and turned on high heat.

While waiting for the oil to warm up, he glanced at Shen Jiayue who was clumsily stuffing meat into mushrooms.

This girl actually knows how to use a spoon to stuff the meat filling, and even uses the back of the spoon to press it. This can not only expel the air and make the meat filling become porcelain, but also make the surface of the meat filling smooth and look more beautiful.

"How about Xu Bao, is it okay?"

"Yes, well done. Don't forget to brush a layer of egg yolk on top to make it look more beautiful."

"I won't forget it!"

The oil in the pot was heated to 50% heat. Lin Xu held the stuffed chicken legs and put the chicken skin side down into the oil pot.

As soon as it was put in, the oil in the pot began to boil violently, and the delicious flavor of the chicken fat itself quickly wafted out, and the surface of the meat was quickly set.

In this step, you can neither fry with a lot of oil, nor fry with a thin layer of oil on the bottom of the pan, but fry with more oil in the pan.

The purpose of using a pan is to shape the meat, and the bottom is flat, so that the fried chicken legs will be flat, which not only looks better, but is also more conducive to plate presentation.

Adding more oil to the pan is to prevent the chicken from burning.

In Chinese cooking, the less oil in the cooking method, the greater the chance that the ingredients will burn. On the contrary, the larger the pot and the more oil, the less likely the ingredients will burn.

The reason is simple. In cooking, fat mainly plays a role in heat transfer.

The less oil there is, the faster the heat energy will be transferred to the ingredients. The ingredients will be heated quickly and naturally become mushy.

Lin Xu fried the skin side of the chicken, and when all the meat fillings were about to be set, he quickly turned the chicken over with the help of a spatula and let the hot oil begin to fry the set meat fillings.

While he was busy, Shen Jiayue on the side also filled the mushrooms with meat stuffing.

Place these mushrooms one by one in the air fryer, adjust the temperature to 200, and set the time to 15 minutes. After turning it on, the girl happily picked up her phone, took a photo of the air fryer, and sent it to her circle of friends:

"New delicacies are being made, so stay tuned!"

As soon as it was sent out, Zeng Xiaoqi sent a series of question marks:

"You two are not sleeping, and you are studying food again?"

Shen Jiayue replied:

"My Xubao is trying to make an old Huaiyang dish, and I also took the opportunity to imitate one. Sister Xiaoqi, since you haven't slept yet, why don't you just take a taxi with Sister Yuanyuan? The heater in our house is very warm. Yo."

In the Sunshine Garden community behind Linji Food, in the room on the top floor, Zeng Xiaoqi, who was sitting on the sofa and applying toenail polish on her feet, kicked Chen Yuanyuan, who was sitting on the sofa next to her watching a short video:

"Your sister-in-law is making delicious food at home, and she strongly invites us to go together. Will you go?"

Chen Yuanyuan yawned helplessly:

"You're still running at what time it is. I have to go to bed later. If I go to my cousin's place, I won't be able to sleep until midnight."

Zeng Xiaoqi put down her nail polish and said:

"It's not that I want to eat, I just feel that it's very cold in our house. The house on the top floor can't be warmed even if there is a heater. The heater in your brother's house is enough. You can just wear short sleeves."

Chen Yuanyuan was holding her own Lock water cup to warm her hands just now. When she heard this, she became a little excited.

It doesn't matter what you eat, just because of the heating there, it's worth spending a night there. Anyway, it's my brother's home, not an outsider. As a sister, I don't need to be polite.

Thinking of this, she stood up and sat up:

"Why are you still standing there? Let's go, let's go. The more you talk, the colder I feel... People say it's enough to let the air out if the heater isn't hot. Why don't we go back and let it go?"

"This is a common problem on the top floor. Let alone deflation, even if you drain the black water from the heating pipe, it will be useless."

Zeng Xiaoqi had just finished painting her toenails and did not dare to wear shoes or socks for fear that the toenail polish would not solidify but get into her socks or shoes.

Seeing Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly go to the room to change clothes, she was so anxious that she held her feet with both hands, put her face close to her like doing yoga, and blew on her toenails gently, hoping that the nail polish would dry quickly.

Chen Yuanyuan put on her velvet and thickened leggings, put on a turtleneck sweater, and came out of the bedroom. Just as she was about to pack away her toiletries and cosmetics, she was shocked when she saw Zeng Xiaoqi like this:

"Let me go, what kind of pica do you have? Do you like to smell the smell of feet so much?"

Zeng Xiaoqi's expression froze, and then she went crazy:

"Shou Yuanyuan, can you see clearly before you speak? I just feel sorry for the new nail polish I bought and want to dry it quickly. Besides, even if I want to smell my feet, I don't want to smell my own. My feet don't stink. !”

If it were anything else, it wouldn't matter if I was teased by my best friend.

But what about smelly feet? This is a matter of principle, okay?

If you don't explain clearly, if this stinky girl spreads rumors like Yan Baobao, she won't be able to wash herself off by jumping into the Yellow River.

Chen Yuanyuan clicked her tongue and said:

"I just asked, but you are still anxious...do you feel guilty?"

Zeng Xiaoqi: "!!!!!!!!!"

I finally know where the trolls on the Internet come from.

She narrowed her eyes and then said:

"Yuanyuan, if you don't behave, from tomorrow on, I will sit in the living room every night talking on the phone with my young boy chasing the wind. If I get tired of it, I will ask you if you are afraid."

Chen Yuanyuan immediately lost her temper.

As a single dog, what I hate most is eating dog food.

It’s okay to take one or two bites when you go to work. If you come home from get off work and have bags of dog food in your mouth, no one can bear it.

She laughed twice:

"I'm kidding you, why are you in such a hurry? Change your clothes quickly, don't wait until you are late. There is no good food and no one will open the door for us."

When Zeng Xiaoqi heard this, she didn't care whether the nail polish on her feet was dry or not. She quickly took her slippers to the room to change clothes, and then packed up her cosmetics and toiletries.

When everything was ready, the two of them put on their own cold-proof boots, wrapped themselves in extended down jackets, locked the door and left.

When they arrived on Yingchun Street, the two took an online taxi and went straight to Lin Xu's home.

At the gate of the community, Zeng Xiaoqi specially bought two bundles of dark beer, then went in with Chen Yuanyuan and rang the security door of the building.

Upstairs, Lin Xu had fried all the chicken, put it in a wok, added stock, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, rock sugar, onion, ginger and other condiments and ingredients and simmered over low heat.

This dish of red crispy chicken pays attention to the crispiness in the mouth and rich taste.

It is said that this is a dish created with the theme of balancing power.

Although the chicken itself has a fresh flavor, the flavor is not outstanding, and it especially lacks the plumpness of fat, so pork was added.

The umami flavor of chicken is relatively weak, and with the addition of pork, the balance of umami flavor and aroma is broken. In order to increase the umami flavor, the creator added shrimps.

The deliciousness of the shrimp meat can completely make up for the lack of umami flavor of the chicken.

In addition, the taste of shrimp is different from that of chicken and pork. When eating it, it will give people a layered and harmonious feeling, making people unconsciously marvel at the beauty of cooking.

In addition, after being fried and then simmered in stock, the originally fried and hard outer shell becomes soft again, just like a young person who has just entered society and has experienced a series of collisions and finally become smooth...

In short, many cultural people can learn something from this dish.

Even if it is finally cut into squares and served on a plate, readers can understand that even if it becomes smooth, there must be persistence and the bottom line of an educated person.

The exact authenticity is unknown, but among Huaiyang cuisine, this dish is really as good as the sweeping monk.

The history is long enough, there are enough places that can be interpreted, and it can be connected to a series of macro propositions such as life and philosophy. It is natural that cultural people like this dish.

When the doorbell rang, Shen Jiayue's fried mushroom stuffed meat had just come out of the pan.

She opened the security door of the building, and not long after, Zeng Xiaoqi and Chen Yuanyuan walked in, wrapped in the cold wind.

"It's really warm. They're also on the top floor. Isn't the difference too big?"

Zeng Xiaoqi sighed and was about to change her shoes when she suddenly smelled the fragrance coming from the kitchen:

"It smells so good. What are you going to make delicious?"

"Haha, Xu Bao makes red crispy chicken, and I make pork stuffed with mushrooms. It's ready. You can try it fried in the air fryer first, and then I'll simmer it with stock."

After Shen Jiayue finished speaking, she brought some crispy fried mushroom stuffed meat outside. Zeng Xiaoqi, who had changed her shoes, took off her down jacket, washed her hands with hand sanitizer, and then couldn't wait to pick one up and take a bite:

"Wow, it's so fragrant, fragrant and fresh...it actually has my favorite shrimp in it. It tastes really great. Yuanyuan, take a bite quickly and I'll get it for you."

Chen Yuanyuan immediately refused:

"I don't want you to take it. If you touched your feet before, I was afraid of getting a mouthful of athlete's foot."

Zeng Xiaoqi rolled her eyes helplessly:

"Then I'll go back and buy two boxes of Dacronine and feed them to you. How about that?"

Chen Yuanyuan changed her shoes and washed her hands before she realized something was wrong:

"Where's Sister Yan? She's usually so greedy at night. She's been posting for so long today, why didn't she say anything?"

Shen Jiayue smiled:

"You must be doing something illegal."

Chen Yuanyuan didn’t understand:

"What illegal business?"

Zeng Xiaoqi finally caught the opportunity to vent her anger:

"We're living together illegally, Yuanyuan, why don't you find a partner, so that you don't have to understand the slang in our circle."

Chen Yuanyuan: "..."

I shouldn't have asked this question.

Curse your tires to be deflated every day!

After washing her hands, she sat down and picked up the golden and crispy fried mushroom stuffed meat with chopsticks and tasted it. The taste was indescribably delicious.

The mushroom itself is plump and delicate, and tastes like meat. After being fried in this way, the mushroom is filled with pork fat, and the juice from the fried mushroom is absorbed by the meat filling.

The aroma and umami mix together to make you addicted in one bite.

Originally she didn't want to come, but after eating the delicious mushroom stuffed meat, she felt that Zeng Xiaoqi's suggestion was right.

It would be a real shame if I didn't eat it tonight.

And this is a delicacy made by the younger brother and sister. When my brother makes that red crispy chicken, the taste will be even better.

In the kitchen, although Shen Jiayue said she would cook it herself, Lin Xu was not at ease when it came to the stove or something.

He put a small wok on the stove, added broth to the pot, put the prepared mushroom stuffed meat into it, poured a little dark soy sauce for coloring, two small spoons of light soy sauce, and a little white sugar for freshness. , cover the pot and simmer over low heat.

Five minutes later, when the mushrooms have been simmered and the flavor is absorbed, put it on a plate. Heat the remaining soup in the pot again, add some water starch, lightly break it up with the back of a spoon, and then pour in some scallion oil.

Then pick up the pot, pour the obviously thickened soup over the stuffed pork with mushrooms, and a dish full of freshness and flavor is officially completed.

"Take it out to eat. My dish will be ready soon."

Shen Jiayue looked at the round mushrooms on the plate and couldn't help but take a photo first. After eating and drinking enough, she posted a message in the group to urge netizens who stayed up late to stop stretching and order takeout!

Haha, everyone will definitely be grateful.

After taking the photo, she took the plate and shared it with the two foodies outside.

Lin Xu took a handful of baby spinach and blanched it in water, then put it in cold water to cool it to prevent the leaves from overheating and rotting.

Then spread the spinach evenly on the plate.

It stands to reason that the base dish for making red crispy chicken should be alfalfa. It is said that the classic local dish Caotouquan was invented based on the inspiration for red crispy chicken.

The grass head refers to alfalfa, while the circle refers to the fat sausage cut into circles, which is a natural contrast to the red crispy chicken cut into cubes. Moreover, one is made of fine meat and the other is famous for its meat.

Regardless of the ingredients or appearance, there is a strong contrast.

Probably because intellectuals always regarded red crispy chicken as the representative of intellectual cuisine, people who couldn't stand this kind of style deliberately made such a dish using large intestines and gave it a particularly tacky name - Caotou Circle.

What is unexpected is that there are fewer people eating red crispy chicken now, and many high-end restaurants are also hard to find.

On the contrary, the most contrasting Caotou circle has become an important dish in our cuisine.

This situation, to use a popular meme on the Internet, is:

"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't cheat on the food customs!"

Lin Xu took the chicken out of the pot, controlled the soup a little, and then placed it on the chopping board for cooking. He first cut off the four sides with a kitchen knife to make a right angle, then cut it from the middle into long strips, and finally cut it into pieces. A three-centimetre square piece in the positive direction.

Cut the chicken skin side up and place it on the spinach leaves.

Arrange everything, reheat the soup in the pot, take out the ingredients, add the starch water, and add some chicken fat.

Finally, hold the pot and pour the soup over the chicken.

"Come on, come on, try the red crispy chicken I made. This is a classic Huaiyang dish. It's time for me to record the New Year's Eve dishes. I'll add this dish then, and give Mr. Tateyama a toothpaste by the way."

The dish of red crispy chicken has a strong appeal to educated people. As long as it is cooked, Geng Lishan will definitely be very satisfied.

This old man participated in the show just to eat, and now he has been brought to join Happy Media, and he also appeared as a food taster.

It's time to comfort yourself with something delicious.

Zeng Xiaoqi originally thought this dish looked good, but didn't see anything extraordinary about it.

But when she picked up a piece and put it into her mouth, she realized that there was something special about the deliciousness, especially the fillings inside. Chicken, pork, and shrimp were mixed together. After one bite, her entire mouth was filled with fresh fragrance. .

This delicious taste is simply amazing.

"It's delicious. It's so delicious. I'll make sure to take pictures of how to make it when I go back. The number of views may reach a new high."

After saying that, she picked up the beer, raised her head and took a big sip.

In Huaiyang cuisine, this is a side dish.

Although I didn’t prepare any staple food tonight, it was still good to go with the wine.

Lin Xu sat down and tasted the mushroom-stuffed meat made by Shen Jiayue, and then tasted the red crispy chicken. He found that the red crispy chicken was more delicious, and not only was it delicious, but you could also taste the meat filling spreading between your lips and teeth. kind of texture.

No wonder those educated people had all kinds of emotions after eating this dish.

It is indeed delicious and tasty enough.

In fact, dishes made this way, such as pot-roasted elbow, crispy boneless chicken, crispy duck and other dishes, basically have steps similar to stuffing, but overall, they are not as delicious as red crispy chicken.

Especially when it is deep-fried and then simmered in stock until it has a soft and tender texture, it is so delicious that words cannot describe it.

"Xubao, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, are there no new dishes in the store? Someone in the group just said that Lin Ji's new dishes have become less frequent, and they don't serve southern dishes as much."

The South is so big, who knows which food you want to eat?

Lin Xu took a sip of beer, thought for a while and said:

"I wanted to talk about it after the New Year. Since someone urged me, let's take a photo of a new dish tomorrow and officially launch it in the store the day after tomorrow."

Zeng Xiaoqi, Chen Yuanyuan, and Shen Jiayue were all stunned when they heard that new dishes were really going to be served.

Netizens are just complaining, are you serious?

"What food are you going to serve?"

"People's suggestions are well-intentioned. The weather has been cold recently, so the frequency of serving new dishes has indeed decreased."

"Don't fool the netizens by just thinking about a dish."

Lin Xu ate a piece of red crispy chicken and said with a smile:

"I'm not sure whether it's a fool or not. I can only confirm that the dish I'm serving is Cantonese-style roast goose. I'll inform Mr. Tateyama later and ask him to write down the best goose in the world."

This confident tone made all the beauties shine.

OMG!

Roast goose!

The delicacy that can never be avoided in Cantonese cuisine, the representative dish of barbecued meat, is unexpectedly being introduced to Lam Kee without any fanfare.

This is so exciting!
