MTL - A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot-Chapter 295 【Lotus Pond Fish Bun】
Chapter 295 [Lotus Pond Fish Bun]
After sending out another [Furong Crab Fight], Liu Yifei came to Li Yi.
Sensing that someone was approaching, Li Yi looked back and found that it was her, so he asked casually, "What's wrong?"
Liu Yifei smiled slightly, watched his movements, and explained: "I want to see how you cook."
She is in the back kitchen, always helping out.
Although she can be regarded as participating in the production of dishes, she has never made a dish alone.
Li Yi never let her use a knife, nor let her get angry.
Before, she didn't think it was related, but under Li Ruotong's reminder, she suddenly wanted to experience the happiness of cooking for others.
Hearing her answer, Li Yi thought she wanted to take a rest and didn't care, so he turned back and continued to cut the fish.
Liu Yifei looked at his fast knife skills when cutting meat, and asked curiously: "Why can you cut so fast? Are you not afraid of cutting your hand?"
"No, you can use your knuckles to support it, it's all basic skills."
Li Yi briefly explained, then suddenly glanced at her, and asked with a smile, "Why? Do you want to try?"
Seen through by him, Liu Yifei smiled a little embarrassedly, then nodded and said, "I think so."
Hearing this, Li Yi hesitated: "You haven't practiced before, in case you get hurt..."
Liu Yifei hurriedly promised: "No, I can be more careful and cut slowly."
Hearing what she said, Li Yi was a little curious: "Why do you want to cut Duner all of a sudden?"
“I want to try to make a complete dish and watch others finish it.”
Liu Yifei looked at him and asked with a smile, "Will that make you feel happy?"
"happiness?"
Li Yi recalled his experience of learning art in the dream space, and the experience of cooking so many dishes in reality, and suddenly fell into deep thought.
When he was learning art in the dream space, all he wanted was to learn it as soon as possible and return to reality.
When cooking in reality, he also thought about making money at first.
Although he sees the diners eating their own meals and being amazed, he also feels a sense of accomplishment.
You can talk about happiness, but that's not enough.
After thinking for a while, he said, "It's okay! The sense of happiness should come to those who care about it, right?"
Hearing his answer, Liu Yifei was also taken aback.
Do people who care about have a sense of happiness?
Li Yi didn't think about it any further, the ticket machine spit out another ticket, and another customer ordered food in the front hall.
Seeing this, Li Yi took out a civil and martial knife, handed it to Liu Yifei, and signaled: "If you want to try, just take some meat and cut it here! Just cut it into small pieces my size, be careful not to cut it into your hands gone."
"Oh, I see."
Liu Yifei took the civil and martial sword and sank it.
She weighed it in her hand, this knife is really not light.
"You have to hold it like this. Use your thumb, index finger, and **** to pinch the two sides. Don't use brute force to hold it, but learn to use its own weight to cut it."
Li Yi explained the technique to her, and at the same time demonstrated to her: "With this hand, you need to press the knuckles against the blade, and retract the fingertips, so as not to cut your fingers."
Liu Yifei imitated his gestures and immediately understood: "Understood, just like playing the piano."
"Yes, almost."
Seeing that she had mastered the posture, Li Yi took a piece of fish, handed it to her, and asked her to try to cut it.
Liu Yifei cut the fish very seriously. Although the cutting was a little slow, she was careful, bit by bit, the fish was cut into the size of the fish under Li Yi's hands.
But Li Yi looked at her slow speed, but couldn't bear it, and reminded: "You are too slow, as long as your gestures are safe, you can be more decisive when you cut the knife."
"OK."
Liu Yifei responded and speeded up a little, but after a few cuts, she slowed down again.
Seeing this, Li Yi didn't say any more, but let her cut and play slowly.
After Li Yi served a few more dishes, Liu Yifei finally finished cutting the fish in her hands.
"what do you think?"
She showed Li Yi her own results: "This particle size, is it okay?"
"good."
Li Yi nodded, then asked with a smile, "Are you going to try cooking it?"
"May I?"
Liu Yifei was a little surprised.
"Can."
Li Yi directed while cooking: "You take a small bowl, add some rice wine, pepper, a little salt, mix well and marinate."
Following his instructions, Liu Yifei took the small bowl and the seasoning, and asked habitually, "How much do you want?"
Li Yi smiled slightly: "Appropriate amount."
"ah?"
Liu Yifei was stunned: "How much is the right amount?"
"It depends on how you feel."
Li Yi smiled and said: "If I tell you, how can this be considered as your own cooking?"
"Makes sense."
Liu Yifei nodded, then picked up the rice wine and poured a little into the bowl.
Li Yi watched her movements, secretly judging the taste of the fish.
The rice wine is a little less, but it is still acceptable.
It’s okay if there is a little more pepper, it can add more flavor.
Salt...I go! Too much salt!
Looking at the small pile of salt that Liu Yifei poured out, Li Yi's eyes twitched.
Just a little fish, put so much salt, you want to kill people!
But Liu Yifei didn't notice it, she just took the chopsticks and started stirring.
Li Yi didn't say anything when he saw this.
After all, this is the first time, so there must be some lessons.
After tasting the taste, you will know the depth of saltiness in the future.
"Then what?"
Liu Yifei looked at Li Yi and asked him.
"Then, you bring the lotus pod that was peeled yesterday."
Li Yi directed her: "Cut open the bottom of the lotus chamber, and use a spoon to take out the flesh inside the lotus chamber, be careful not to tear it.
After digging out, you stuff these fish meat stuffing into it, stuff it full, and stuff it firmly. "
"oh."
Following his instructions, Liu Yifei stuffed the fish into the lotus chamber, and asked, "Then what?"
"Then put it in the steamer and steam for eight minutes."
Li Yi watched her come back after setting the time, and continued: "This dish is served with fisherman's delicacies. Go and get some water chestnuts, lotus seeds and chrysanthemums, peel and mash them, add water and cook in a pot."
Following what he said, Liu Yifei took the water chestnut and lotus seeds, peeled the shells and took the seeds, added chrysanthemum petals, mashed them, and put them in a casserole to cook.
The stove has just started, and the lotus pods in the steamer have been steamed.
Liu Yifei wore heat-resistant gloves and took out the lotus chamber.
Then, as Li Yi said, he took two blooming lotus flowers and took out the lotus chamber in the middle.
Following that, she inserted the steamed lotus pod with a toothpick and fixed it in the lotus.
Fixed by the toothpick, the lotus pod sits firmly in the center of the petals of the lotus, looking like a fresh lotus that has just been picked.
Seeing such a lotus, Liu Yifei was a little excited.
She already understood how to eat this dish, but she was also amazed by this way of eating.
If you just serve it out like this, without explaining how to eat it to the guests, the guests probably want to break their heads, and they don’t expect that this dish will eat the lotus pod in the center of the lotus flower.
Before they ate the lotus pod, they would never have imagined that it was filled with fresh and sweet fish meat.
This way of eating is too interesting, right?
Soon, the fisherman's three delicacies soup on the stove is also ready.
Liu Yifei filtered the soup with gauze, put it in a bowl, and put a lotus flower on the soup.
Seeing this, Li Yi smiled and said, "Congratulations, your first dish, [Lianfang Fish Bun], is ready."
