MTL - A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot-Chapter 355 deliver food
Chapter 355 Delivering Meals
"Okay, let's try it!"
Li Yi smiled and turned around to greet him.
The eager crowd gathered around one after another, curiously looking at the golden and emerald green twice-cooked pork on the plate, salivating.
Wang Gang, who was closest, had already picked up a piece of twice-cooked pork and began to observe it carefully.
Sichuan-style twice-cooked pork requires a lamp nest.
Li Yi's [Crispy Twice-cooked Meat] slices also have lamp sockets, but it's not so obvious, there is only an arc-shaped depression.
Its pork skin and fat parts have been stir-fried into a shrimp-like oil residue, which already looks crunchy.
The red oil of Pixian bean paste is just a thin layer of cooking on the meat slices, like potato chips sprinkled with seasonings.
Wang Gang can already imagine the taste of it just by looking at it.
Without looking any further, he directly put the sliced meat into his mouth, and his teeth fell down.
Kasha~!
First, there was a crisp sound like the cracking of a wafer biscuit.
Immediately afterwards, the taste of the wafer biscuits was also softened by saliva, allowing the rich aroma of oil in the meat slices to spread throughout the mouth along with the saliva.
Before he chewed the lean meat, Wang Gang was already overwhelmed by the taste of the meat slices.
This is really crispy and fragrant twice-cooked pork!
Fat meat melts, and the lean meat below becomes clear.
It seems to have eaten a small piece of pork jerky, and the lean meat is slightly hard like baked bread.
But after being overwhelmed by the saliva aroused by the crispy aroma of fat meat, the lean meat part also softened quickly.
When the saliva soaks into the texture of lean meat, the umami substance locked in the meat is like ink dried in a brush. When it suddenly encounters clear water, it faints instantly.
As Wang Gang chewed, every time he squeezed his teeth, the umami substance in the lean meat would be squeezed out, turning it into a burst of delicious gravy, filling his mouth.
Once, twice, after chewing seven or eight times, the sliced meat has turned into a puff of meat sauce and completely melted.
This is because the meat slices are sliced too thin and fried too dry. After a few strokes in the mouth, it will be softened by the saliva and will not gather together.
But just now, the crispy aroma of the fat part of the meat slices, and the more chewy taste of the lean meat, made Wang Gang unsatisfied and hard to restrain. He just wanted to taste this taste again immediately.
So, he immediately picked up a few more slices and stuffed them into his mouth.
Before everyone moved their chopsticks, he had already dropped two chopsticks one after another, and ate several slices, which was somewhat impolite.
But after the people around tasted the taste of crispy twice-cooked pork, they immediately understood the reason.
"Wow!"
Zhao Jinmai covered his mouth in surprise, pointed at the twice-cooked pork on the plate with chopsticks, and exclaimed, "This meat smells so good!"
Wu Lei nodded again and again, but did not speak, but the chopsticks had already reached the plate again.
Seeing this, Zhao Jinmai also reacted, and immediately stretched out his chopsticks, picked up two pieces of meat, and put them into his mouth.
Others didn't bother to talk at all, they ate chopsticks like flying one after another, eating in full swing.
Wang Gang just paused, and in just a few seconds, more than half of the dishes on the plate went down.
Seeing this, he couldn't care less about being polite, and stepped forward again with his chopsticks in hand, aiming at a piece of meat close to the garlic sprouts, picked it up together with the meat slices and garlic sprouts, and put it into his mouth.
Kasha~!
Click!
The completely different sounds represent the unique taste of the meat slices and garlic sprouts.
The outer layer of the garlic stalks has been fried until it is browned, but the inner part is just broken, still juicy and crisp.
When the crispness of the meat slices collides with the crispness of the garlic sprouts, the freshness of the pork and the fragrance of the vegetables blend together, which is different from eating the meat slices alone, and has a special flavor.
Tasting the sliced meat and garlic sprouts in his mouth, Wang Gang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He can indeed make very authentic traditional twice-cooked pork.
But Li Yi may not be able to make this kind of crispy twice-cooked pork in his life.
Just for the hype, he might have to practice for a lifetime.
Li Yi also brought a pair of chopsticks over, wanting to taste it.
But when he came closer, he found that the plate was empty.
All the vegetables were eaten, not even a single garlic sprout was left.
There were only dots of oil dripping on the plate, Tang Jianjun smacked his lips eagerly, looked at the oil dripping on the plate, and jokingly said: "If there is a steamed bun, I can dip it in and eat all the oil soup, too Fragrant!"
"Yes! This is not the same as the twice-cooked pork in my impression, but it is very delicious!"
Wu Lei ate the most, but he also felt unsatisfactory.
He looked up and wanted to beg Li Yi to cook more, but he saw Li Yi holding a pair of clean chopsticks and looking at them with a smile.
"Haha! Brother Yi, I'm sorry!"
He said with a smile: "The twice-cooked pork you made is so delicious, we couldn't help it, we ate it all."
"At any rate, leave a piece for me to taste?"
Li Yi laughed and complained.
"Can you still not know what it smells like?"
Wang Xiaoli said with a smile: "If you want to eat, you can eat it anytime. It's the first time for us to eat it. I can't help it!"
Hu Ling swallowed the meat dregs in her mouth, and asked curiously: "Why is your hot pot meat different from Wang Gang's?"
"This is the new way for me."
Li Yi said with a smile: "This way there will be less oil in the dishes, and the taste of the meat will be more beneficial to the teeth of the elderly, making it healthier to eat."
"So it's an innovative dish? It's really delicious."
Zhao Jinmai glanced at Wang Gang, stuck out his tongue, and explained with a smile: "Sorry! Master Wang Gang, I just prefer Brother Yi's cooking skills. The traditional twice-cooked pork you fried is also delicious."
Wang Gang smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, I also like this new style very much. The creativity and technology are very good, much better than mine."
"I'm just standing on the shoulders of my predecessors."
Li Yi said with a smile: "If the ancients hadn't invented stir-frying and bean paste, there would be no traditional twice-cooked pork.
If there is no traditional twice-cooked pork, where does innovation come from? "
Wang Gang nodded approvingly, and sighed: "I have to try to innovate more. I can't be complacent in cooking, or I will be eliminated sooner or later."
"Don't force it, just let it be."
Li Yi smiled and said something, suddenly heard the ringing of the bell and remembered, looked at the time, it was enough time for the hoof flower soup to simmer.
Seeing this, Li Yi immediately went to the stove, fished out the hoof flowers, and put them into the thermos bucket that had been prepared.
He used another thermos bucket to fill the soup and soup in the casserole. He made a portion of rice, mixed a bowl with water, and put it in the lunch box.
Following that, he found another piece of paper, wrote a few words, and handed these things over to the staff.
The staff turned and left, Li Yi also returned to the stove and continued to work.
It's already past twelve o'clock noon, and the evening banquet starts at six o'clock.
Six hours is not a lot, but considering the preparation time of the remaining dishes, it is still a bit tight.
On the other side, the staff who just got the thermos bucket and lunch box from Li Yi are sending a message to Xiaolan: "Sister Lan, where are you now? Brother Yi asked me to deliver meals to Sister Yifei."
