Chapter 581 The representative of cooked and steamed desserts-Zeng Gao! Chen Yan: The damage will actually rebound? [Please subscribe]
"The host proposes to let retired old chefs participate in the filming of the state banquet documentary, which triggers the side task [Laoji Fufeng]: The host invites more than twenty retired state banquet chefs to participate in the filming of the documentary. After completion, the host will be rewarded with a perfect Shandong cuisine cooking technique type lottery, Sichuan cuisine
A lucky draw!"
Listening to the reminder sound in his mind, Lin Xu was slightly surprised.
Master and his group of retired masters together only have eighteen, but the system actually requires twenty. Is it necessary to hire foreign aid?
Come to think of it, this is really necessary, because eighteen retired chefs may not all have time.
Some of them are thriving in their own restaurants, some have returned to their hometowns to live out their old age, and some have even settled in coastal cities with their children.
Ordinary people may come immediately after hearing about this kind of shooting, but these old masters have countless photos with leaders. They also had a lot of interviews when they were young. Fame is no longer important to them.
.
So I really need to think about this matter carefully, and I have to make an appointment with everyone in advance to gather twenty people.
This is not only to complete the task, but also to let netizens and the general audience remember these master chefs who once stood at the highest level of cooking.
Their contribution deserves such an honor.
The most important thing is to find a suitable person to start with and persuade the other person, so that it will be much easier to invite other people.
As for the candidate, Lin Xu has already been selected, it is Qiu Yaozu who likes to join in the fun. This old chef cares too much about reputation, and the first banquet of the founding of the country that year was Huaiyang cuisine.
As a leader in Huaiyang cuisine, he will definitely agree to appear on the scene.
As long as he nods, other master chefs will join in half-heartedly.
When the time comes, it will be no problem to find a few more senior masters of their generation to gather twenty people.
After confirming the filming of the state banquet documentary, Lin Xu drove back, while Chen Yuanyuan and Dou Wenjing helped Zeng Xiaoqi start writing the planning book.
This kind of planning book is relatively difficult. It must not only show the highlights of the program, but also show the strength of Happy Media. At the same time, it must be safe to prevent someone from taking this planning book and filming directly.
Zeng Xiaoqi once encountered this situation on a TV station.
When she first graduated, she planned an interview program to discuss hot social topics.
I submitted the plan, but there has been no response.
A month later, another director on the station suddenly organized a talk show, and the content and format of the show were exactly the same as what was written in Zeng Xiaoqi's planning book.
This made her very angry. As soon as she expressed her objection, her boss transferred her to the newly established travel channel on the grounds that "young people need to exercise more".
"Don't worry, Ms. Zeng, once these planning documents are not approved, I will pack them up and send them over. The TV station will not keep archives. If someone steals your ideas, I will take the lead in suing you!"
After all, Luo Jiayao is also the leader of the station, and he still has some say, otherwise he would not be planning new programs.
Zeng Xiaoqi was very moved by these words. If there had been such a reliable leader back then, perhaps the development of the TV station would not have been so stumbling.
Lin Xu returned to the store, first looked at the soaked glutinous rice and red kidney beans, and then asked the driver to prepare the pitted red dates and golden candied dates for tomorrow.
Making Zeng Gao is inseparable from jujube, which is even the soul of Zeng Gao.
Although ordinary jujubes look good, they will have a sour taste after being steamed, and the longer they are steamed, the stronger the sour taste will be. Therefore, you need to mix it with some candied dates, and use the sweetness of candied dates to suppress the sour taste of red dates.<
/p>
In addition to these, he also asked Chezi to buy a large basin with holes at the bottom. It is said to be a basin, but in fact it is more like a bucket. It is relatively deep and can be placed in the steaming cabinet.
When using it, put the entire bucket directly into the steam outlet of the steaming cabinet to start steaming.
This can not only provide a continuous stream of steam, but also allow the ingredients to blend with each other, making the steaming more delicious.
After lunch the next day, Lin Xu soaked the red dates and started making them.
He first took the red kidney beans that had doubled in size out of the water, put them into an electric pressure cooker, added water, and cooked them for 25 minutes.
Kidney beans are an ingredient that is difficult to cook thoroughly, so even after soaking for nearly twenty hours, you still need to use an electric pressure cooker to cook them until they are tender.
When cooking kidney beans, he puts the glutinous rice that has been soaked until it breaks into pieces with his hands into a steaming tray, puts it into the steaming cabinet, and steams it in the same way.
In addition, cleaned and pitted jujubes and candied dates must be steamed before use.
While he was busy working, the car guy standing next to him asked curiously:
"Can't you steam it directly, boss? Why do you need to steam these first and then cook them?"
Lin Xu closed the door of the steam cabinet, set the time, and then said:
"Steaming them thoroughly first and then steaming them together can make the taste better. The glutinous rice cake tastes not only soft and sweet, but also has a chewy texture. Only by steaming the glutinous rice in advance can this texture be highlighted... If it is eaten directly
If it is steamed, it is not rice cake, but eight-treasure rice."
Rice pudding and steamed rice cake are two desserts that are easily confused.
Although on the surface it looks like eight-treasure rice is steamed bowl by bowl, while steamed rice cakes are steamed together in a large pot, which looks like a difference between large and small bowls, in fact there is a difference between raw steaming and cooked steaming.
Raw steaming means steaming raw rice and various ingredients in a pot. The steamed dessert has distinct rice grains. Although it tastes soft and glutinous, it does not have the chewy texture of steamer cake.
The steamed glutinous rice cake is the representative of cooked and steamed rice. The steamed glutinous rice is put back into the pot for steaming, so that the moisture in the rice grains is separated again. Such glutinous rice will become chewy and delicious when eaten, which is different from ordinary eight-treasure rice.
Possessed.
Half an hour later, the glutinous rice has been steamed through, the red kidney beans have been cooked, and the aroma of red dates and candied dates has been completely steamed out.
Put these ingredients on separate trays to dry.
When your hands are no longer hot, take over the large basin with eyes that you bought yesterday and wash it clean.
Sprinkle the red kidney beans at the bottom to block the pores below, then tear open the candied dates, carefully spread them on the red kidney beans, and finally sprinkle a layer of pitted red dates.

After finishing this work, spread the cooked glutinous rice in. When spreading, layer the glutinous rice. Each layer is about ten centimeters. You can put candied dates, red kidney beans or raisins.
But you can’t put red dates, because the red dates sandwiched inside are not easy to steam and rot, and in order to look good, all the red dates are usually placed on the top.
It will look more attractive this way.
Spread them all out, and sprinkle a layer of red kidney beans on top, with a layer of candied dates on top of the red kidney beans.
Finally, spread all the red dates on top, cover them with lotus leaves blanched in boiling water, put them in a steaming cabinet, and steam them over high heat.
"How long does it take to steam this, boss?"
"Steam it for two hours first, turn off the heat and simmer for a while, steam it for another two hours, then take it out and put it in the kitchen to dry. You can heat it up and eat it tomorrow morning.
If you use a pig iron steamer that is comparable to a water tank, you don't need to reheat it, because even in the winter, the steamed cakes in the steamer will still be hot the next day.
But this kind of stainless steel is not good. It dissipates heat too quickly. It will definitely be very cold when you come here tomorrow morning.
Although it can be eaten cold, in order not to harm your stomach, it is better to heat it up.
While Lin Xu was busy steaming rice cakes in the big kitchen, in the small kitchen next to her, Shen Jiayue was holding a duck breast and carefully dicing the meat. Chen Yan was beside her, looking at her cousin with admiration:
"Wow, you can even use a kitchen knife?"
"This is all trivial. Xu Bao actually didn't want me to use a kitchen knife, for fear that I would cut my hand. But how can you make fragrant rice duck without a kitchen knife?"
Chen Yan was not busy this afternoon. When she was eating frosted cashew nuts outside, she remembered the fragrant rice duck made by Shen Jiayue and wanted to see it and taste it.
If she was studious, she would secretly surprise Ren Jie later.
Shen Jiayue said while cutting the meat:
"If you don't want to cut it, you can leave it to the enthusiastic stall owner. It is said that the vegetable stall owners in the south not only help kill the fish and cut the meat, but also help fillet the fish into fillets and clean the green onions... Although the stall owners in the north do not
It’s so meticulous. If you pay two yuan, it will definitely help you cut the board perfectly.”
Cut the meat and let Shen Jiayue marinate it.
At this time, the fragrant rice in the pot was almost steamed. She took out all the fragrant rice and spread it on the tray.
"The fragrant rice needs to be cooled before frying, so that it tastes better. I'll let you try my cooking later. By the way, I also know how to make cola chicken wings and honey grilled wings. If you have a chance, I can make them for you to try."
”
Shen Jiayue is very happy, finally stepping on her cousin in terms of cooking skills.
Chen Yan was not sad about being stepped on, but carefully watched her cousin's operation and suggested:
"Yueyue, how about you make a cooking video later? Let your brother-in-law make a video of playing with Dundun. The title is "Exchanging Life for a Day." This should be liked by netizens."
Eh?
Swapping lives?
It seems quite interesting to let Xu Bao live my life for a day, and for me to live Xu Bao's life for a day.
Then my identity as executive chef will be exposed, right?
What should you say then?
Yes, let’s talk about Shen Teng’s classic line:
I wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in return was doubt and ridicule. Stop pretending, I am the executive chef of Linji Gourmet and let me show my cards!
Thinking of this, she wiped her hands and took her mobile phone to send a message to Shu Yun:
"Make me a custom-made executive chef outfit with Lin Ji's logo on it. I'll make a video in a few days..."
