Chapter 756 Old Shen Is No Longer Hungry for Meat? Shen Jiayue: Dad, if You Are Going to Be Kidnapped, Just Blink! 【Please Subscribe】
"Oh, this elbow is so delicious!"
In the kitchen, as soon as Lin Xu opened the door of the steam cabinet, a strong aroma wafted out from inside. The aroma included the smell of steamed meat and Chinese medicine.
However, unlike Su Zao Tang, which has a strong medicinal smell, the elbow has been steamed for nearly two hours, and the medicinal smell has dissipated a lot, and it smells of a soft medicinal aroma.
This aroma mixed with the aroma of meat makes people immediately move their index fingers. Even Wei Gan, who looked disgusted when making the soup, was full of surprise at this time. He couldn't believe that the meat tasted so strong with such a strong medicinal smell. So fragrant.
"I'll go, there's something good about this Su Zao elbow."
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"After all, it was the dish that Emperor Qianlong liked to eat, and it was the dish that the imperial chef Zhang Dongguan had cooked all his life. If it was unpalatable, would Emperor Qianlong eat it?"
Unlike other food legends that are attributed to Qianlong, Su Zao pork elbow is indeed a dish that Emperor Qianlong liked to eat, and it was also recorded in the imperial meal menu. During Qianlong's southern tour, this dish appeared on the imperial meal menu many times. superior.
If it was not delicious, Emperor Qianlong would never order this dish over and over again.
After the steam dissipated, Lin Xu put on insulated gloves and took out the extremely hot elbow from the steaming cabinet.
After steaming, a thick layer of fat floats on the sea bowl containing the elbow. This layer of fat can seal in both the flavor and the heat.
There doesn't seem to be any heat in the bowl, but if you hold it with your hands, it will definitely cause blisters.
Although Lin Xu had ruthless iron hands, he did not dare to try it rashly.
And everyone is holding the iron, but you are expressionless, which can easily arouse everyone's curiosity. In line with the principle of doing more than doing less, it is better to wear insulated gloves honestly.
Taking out the sea bowls one by one, Lin Xu held the bowl in one hand and a large colander in the other hand to cover the mouth of the bowl. He poured all the soup and fat in the bowl into a prepared basin.
After pouring it in, put a plate on the mouth of the bowl, turn it over, and place the elbow in the bowl on the plate.
You have to be careful when doing this step, because the elbow is very soft at this time, and the skin is covered with knives. If you move slightly, the elbow will fall apart.
The elbow is turned upside down with the skin facing up.
At this time, the skin of the elbow is rosy, and it looks very similar to the red braised elbow. However, the red braised elbow is a whole, while the surface of the Su Zao elbow is full of mahjong-like flower knives.
The scent of these flowers and herbs has become an important symbol to distinguish the red braised pork elbow.
But there is a saying, the more this happens, the more it shows that there is a relationship between red braised pork elbow and Su Zao pork elbow.
This is most likely due to the fact that after the palace practice was leaked, the inventor of red braised pork elbow simply gave up the ingredients because he did not know the correct ratio of ingredients.
At the same time, in order to reduce the difficulty, the flower knife was cancelled, and finally it became what it is now.
The elbows are lying on the plate in a rounded shape, making people greedy just by looking at them.
But the whole dish is not finished yet and cannot be tasted yet.
"Wei Gan, bring over the blanched rapeseed and make a border around these elbows. I'll collect the soup and make a sauce for it."
After Lin Xu gave the instructions, he poured the elbow soup that had just been decanted into the pot and brought it to a boil over high heat.
Half of this soup is fat, so instead of thickening it immediately, use a spoon to stir it in the pot to let the water in the pot continue to evaporate, so that the viscosity will naturally increase.
After a while, the soup was running low. Lin Xu added water starch into the pot, stirred it briefly to thicken the soup, then picked up the pot and started pouring the juice.
Normally, when making a sauce, you need to pour some cooking oil, scallion oil, lard and other ingredients, but this dish does not need it because there is already too much fat in the soup. Somewhat counterproductive.
At this time, Wei Qian had also set up the perimeter. Lin Xu scooped up the prepared sauce and carefully poured it on his elbows.
The original red elbow is very attractive. After pouring the sauce on it, the surface of the elbow seems to be coated with a layer of glass. Let alone eating it, even just looking at the appearance can make people salivate.
"I'll go, this looks good enough."
Wei Qian completely fell in love with this dish. He originally thought the medicinal flavor was too strong, but now it seemed just right.
Moreover, the presence of medicinal flavor also reduces the greasiness of elbow. Even people who don’t like eating elbow will subconsciously want to try it when they smell the aroma of this dish.
I made a total of six Su-made pork elbows today. Lin Xu said:
"Two portions for the kitchen, two portions for the front desk, and the remaining two portions for the guests."
Let's all taste it together first. If it tastes good, we can make it again later. Anyway, the Su Zao soup in the big pot needs to be cooked with some meat or something else every day, otherwise it will spoil easily.
After Lin Xu finished his instructions, he used a slotted spoon to pick out the green onion and ginger in the Su Zao soup, leaving only the medicinal packet.
Onions and ginger will smell bad if soaked in the soup for a long time, so take them out in time.
When I came outside with my elbow in hand, everyone was already waiting.
When Lin Xu saw Deng Lisong, he also came over and greeted him with a smile:
"Master Deng is finally willing to go out. Try this elbow. It tastes very good."
Deng Lisong is still a little uncomfortable with this kind of situation where people eat together more often, but it is much better than before. He smiled and said:
"I came here with Cai Sen to have a meal, and let George spend some time with Dundun. The little guy has missed his brother recently. I am going to find a piece of jade material to make a statue of Dundun again. This way, I can put it at home and save money. George is alone and lonely."
Although everyone is in the capital and not far apart, he is a social person and has to bear the pressure every time he goes out. In addition, Dundun also likes to go out and have fun, so even if he drives over, he may not be able to see him.
In view of this, he planned to carve a statue and put it at home. If George really wanted to think about it, at least he would have a psychological sustenance.
When Cai Sen heard this, he immediately said:
"Then carve one for me. Now Peggy has become my grandpa's favorite. Even me, the father, has to step aside. I just want to make a statue to put at home, so that Peggy won't be able to see Dundun and will be worried." .”
Lin Xu didn't care about this matter:
"Okay, Master Deng will tell you when you start, we will take Dundun to be a model for you."
Soon, dishes were served one after another.
In addition to the Su-made elbow in the middle, there are also dry croquettes, sweet and sour pork loin, crab roe tofu, sweet and sour fish cubes, minced meat vermicelli, steamed mandarin fish, garlic broccoli, beef stir-fried kale, and egg stew Dishes such as vermicelli.
Cai Sen couldn't help but swallowed his saliva:
"It's rich enough."
Normally everyone eats staff meals, whatever they want to eat, but today is the day when Sister Yuanyuan and Cai Sen confirm their relationship, so they still have to cook a few more dishes.
Everyone sat down and started eating.
Almost everyone immediately stretched out their chopsticks and picked up the Su Zao elbow in the middle.
The elbow is so crispy that it trembles when picked up with chopsticks, like jelly or jelly. When you eat it, it has the same melt-in-the-mouth feeling as if the elbow has been stewed to perfection.
There is no need to chew at all, as if you suck it, the elbow will melt in your mouth.
The light medicinal aroma in the meat is very soft and makes the elbow a little less greasy, giving people the illusion that eating the elbow will make them live longer and extend their lives.
At that time, Qianlong ate soy sauce pork elbow over and over again. I wonder if it might have something to do with this feeling.
Medicine can cure diseases, so the elbow stewed with medicine must have a similar effect.
Under such psychological influence, the elbow will become delicious unconsciously.
"Wow, this elbow is delicious!"
Shen Jiayue let out a sigh, thinking that her father Shen Guofu liked it, so she took a photo and sent it:
"Dad, dad, remember to come to the store with mom after get off work in the afternoon and try the new Suzhou pork elbow served today. It tastes great!"
If you put it aside, Lao Shen will immediately become addicted and even drive to the store during lunch time to have a feast.
But at this time, he replied with a photo of light food:
"In the afternoon, I eat a low-fat light meal with my mother, and do a couple of aerobics by the way. I'm quite busy, so I won't go."
Nani! ! ! !
The Little Pork Prince has changed his gender?
Shen Jiayue was a little curious and replied with a click:
"Dad, if you are going to be kidnapped by mom, just blink and I will rescue you."
"What are you kidnapping? Your mother is still in the outpatient clinic right now. I can't eat haphazardly anymore. I have to eat healthily so that I can be in good health. Besides, your sister Yan is getting married and there will be plenty of food and fish. So take some moderation now.”
Wow, dad is so perseverant!
Shen Jiayue posted several emoticons and screenshots of the conversation to Moments, giving Shen a rainbow fart.
What you need most to lose weight is encouragement. The more you shout, the more motivated you will be.
On the contrary, the more you say depressing words or argue, the more people lose their will to lose weight, leading to failure to lose weight.
It was for this purpose that Shen Jiayue kept cheering for old Shen.
After ending the chat, Shen Jiayue continued to enjoy the food.
She said to Chen Yan:
"Xubao plans to make sesame tofu, do you want to eat it?"
"No, I haven't been used to eating sesame tofu and bean juice since I was a child, but my dad likes it very much. When can I make it? I'll let him and my mom eat it."
According to the older generation, people like Chen Yan who don’t eat tofu or drink bean juice can’t be considered a Yanjing native at all.
But Chen Yan doesn't care whether she is from Yanjing or not. That depends on her household registration book and ID card, not her food preferences.
Lin Xu put the dry croquettes into his mouth, feeling the crispness of the meatballs and the tenderness of the meat filling, and said with a smile:
"There is ready-made sesame tofu sold in Yu Daye Supermarket next door. You can make it at any time. It's not difficult anyway."
When Chen Yan heard this, she immediately said:
"Then let's do it in the afternoon. My parents are not busy today, so I want them to come over early in the afternoon."
"Okay, no problem."
Lin Xu agreed, scooped two spoonfuls of crab roe tofu into a bowl, mixed it with rice, and took a big bite. It was really comfortable.
Cai Sen, who was racking his brains to talk to Chen Yuanyuan, heard the conversation and asked Lin Xu:
"Boss Lin, can you make more tofu for the afternoon? My grandpa likes it very much. I want to bring him to try it. I just want to meet Yuanyuan."
Before Lin Xu could speak, Chen Yuanyuan had a surprised expression:
"Meet me? What are you going to do? Do you need to undergo a political review to discuss a partner with you?"
Cai Sen muttered:
"You damn political examiner, my grandpa heard about what happened yesterday and wanted to meet you. I told him that there are rules in the Central Plains. When you meet your future granddaughter-in-law, you have to give a red envelope. He took it seriously. He is currently going through the house. As for the cultural relics pulled out of the palace, I don’t know what I will give you. I won’t agree if it’s cheap.”
Chen Yan: "!!!!!!!!!"
How can you still pluck wool like this?
Cai Sen ate his elbow and said:
"Those things he collected were either taken away by friends or searched for by juniors. He was so shameless that he asked for them directly, and even cried when he refused to give them. Instead of doing this, we might as well take them away. Most of them are anyway. Those who came from the palace back then were not earned with blood and sweat."
Lin Xu listened to the conversation between the two and felt that it was destined that these two people would be together.
One is a rebellious member of the family. He not only rebels against his family at every turn, but also takes advantage of the family's wealth as a matter of course.
And Sister Yuanyuan... is even more steely than Li Kui. When the two of them get together, it really feels like Hu Baoyi meets the black whirlwind for the first time.
"Does Ma Tofu require a lot of ingredients?"
Zeng Xiaoqi doesn't dislike this kind of dishes. She even gets a little greedy if she doesn't eat them occasionally, but after eating them a few times, she can't taste the ingredients of sesame tofu.
Lin Xu said:
"It's just sheep tail oil, potherb and green peas. The ingredients are very simple, but sheep oil is essential. This is the key to the deliciousness of the tofu."
When Zeng Xiaoqi heard this, she said to Chen Yan:
"After the state banquet documentary is over, we can do some snack-type programs, such as tofu, deep-fried tofu, fried enema, etc. Many outsiders don't know about it, so we can film it so everyone can see it."
Chen Yan waved her hand and said:
"Reorganize the company and set up a content department. You will be fully responsible for it. I will touch the computer less in the future and won't care about so many details."
When you are pregnant, although you are not armed to the teeth like some people wearing radiation protection suits, you should try to stay away from computers.
Not only does it radiate, but looking at monitors too much is also bad for your eyes.
Zeng Xiaoqi said:
"Okay, then I'll talk about the delicious food and greet you with all my energy."
There are many profit points in video content creation. In addition to the conventional sharing based on clicks, there are also methods such as embedded advertising, channel distribution, and platform procurement.
For some high-quality videos, the platform will buy them out and make them into documentaries for release.
And these videos can also drive its anchors and UP owners. When these people grow up, they will feed the videos in return.
Downstairs, George, who was one size older than before, was following Dundun, looking at his collection of various bell balls, bouncing balls and other toys.
Occasionally, there would be something that George liked, and Dundun would kick it generously and teach him how to play.
When he was tired of playing, the little guy shared his dried meat with his younger brother. George ate happily and occasionally shouted to the nanny not far away, showing great excitement.
Deng Lisong's nanny did not go upstairs to eat, but ate hand-made noodles with diced eggplant downstairs.
George was Deng Lisong's favorite, and she didn't dare to cause the cat to run away because of eating him.
Seeing Maomao calling him, the nanny strode over, saw the dried meat on the plate, smiled and rubbed George's head:
"Do you like eating it? I'll ask you how to make these dried meats later so that you can eat them at home."
George rolled his eyes, as if he understood what he said, and then he rubbed his head against the nanny, lowered his head and continued to eat the jerky.
Xiao Dong on the side smiled and said:
"I thought only Dundun could understand human speech, but I didn't expect George could do it too. Kitty Cat is great."
The nanny gently tidied the cat hair on George’s body:
"He acts like a child all day long. He is very playful. He hugs me when he is tired from playing. He even holds my arm when he is lying on the sofa to sleep. He is very clingy."
When Deng Lisong was busy carving, George would play with the nanny.
Occasionally, when Peggy goes, George will share her latest toy and run around like crazy with Peggy.
Not long after, lunch ended upstairs.
Today's meal was very sumptuous and everyone enjoyed it.
Deng Lisong came upstairs, scratched George's chin, then looked at the nanny and asked in a low voice:
"Have you applied for a card?"
"I did it, and I got two snack gift boxes."
After hearing this, Deng Lisong felt relieved.
When Dundun saw Deng Lisong coming downstairs, she knew they were going back, so she barked at George a few times, and raised her paw to pat the little cow on the head.
George rubbed Dundun, his eyes full of reluctance.
Deng Lisong said after seeing it:
"You want to play with my brother here? Then you can't be naughty and cause trouble, otherwise I will take you back."
George immediately rubbed Deng Lisong's hand flatteringly.
"Then just stay. I'll come to pick you up during dinner. Don't be naughty, don't run around, and be your lucky cat."
"Meow!!!!!"
George was very happy and started having fun on the front desk.
Deng Lisong walked out of the store and got into the car to go home with Cai Sen, who was seeing off Chen Yuanyuan.
Deng Lisong planned to come back in the afternoon to try the tofu and eat melon and watch a show.
He really wanted to see Cai Heping give red envelopes to his grandson's wife, and even more wanted to know what kind of gift he would give.
If he took out one at random, maybe Cai Sen would ask for a return or exchange on the spot - that would be a lot of fun, and even if he endured the social fear, he would have to watch it.
Fastening his seat belt, he asked:
"Why don't you send more gifts? Is it over with just goodbye?"
Caisen said:
"Yuanyuan is a career-oriented woman. She only thinks about making herself bigger and stronger. Even if she falls in love, she doesn't have much time to spend time with each other."
After saying that, he started the car and slowly drove out of the parking space:
"Send you and aunt back. I have to go to Qianmen Street. Third uncle said that I need to handle some finishing work. After that, the fight will be over."
Deng Lisong did not ask about the specific results. According to the energy of the Cai family, it is very simple to deal with this kind of matter.
Relatively speaking, what troubles him more now is the big cauldrons.
At first he thought carving would not be a big problem, but the patterns were too complicated and made him exhausted both physically and mentally. Now he is working hard on carving.
But now I can’t push it away, so I can only bite the bullet and continue.
After these tripods are carved, I will not take on the carving work this year. I will take a good rest and spend more time with George.
In the store, Lin Xu stood in front of the roast duck stove and started to cook roast duck for Tan Yajun. By the way, he asked the driver to go to Uncle Yu's supermarket next door to buy ten packs of sesame tofu.
There should be a lot of people coming to eat in the afternoon, so cook more to avoid not having enough!
