Chapter 274 Sixi Tangtuan Class A(1/2)
Soak the starch water twice.
Qin Huai fell into deep thought when he heard Cao Guixiang say this.
Meat-soaked starch water is a very common cooking technique, but it is rarely used on white tables, because this method is usually to make the meat tenderer and is usually used in cooking methods of frying and stir-frying.
When making meat-filled snacks in Qinhuai, what you usually need to consider is how to make the meat tighter and lock in the juice.
Qin Huai thought quietly for a few minutes, Cao Guixiang didn't say anything during Qin Huai's thinking, but just smiled and waited for his thoughts to end.
"May I ask, how long does it take to soak the starch water twice?" Qin Huai asked.
"I don't know." Cao Guixiang shook her head, "I don't know how to make Sixi Tangtu, and I can't tell you exactly the time and dosage. But I think this is a good way to improve the taste and taste of the meat, Bijia
The method of scallop water is much easier to use.”
"Dry scallop water is a good way to improve freshness, but it is not suitable for Sixi Tangtuan. The meat filling glutinous rice dumplings in Sixi Tangtuan plays a role in connecting the past and integrating the past and the same. It does not need to highlight its freshness too much.
.”
After hearing what Cao Guixiang said, Qin Huai knew that although Cao Guixiang could not make Sixi Tangtuan, she must be a master of cooking.
She knows Sixi Tangtuan very well.
"Okay, thank you for your reminder, I'll try it now."
Qin Huai is also an actionist in improving the recipe. After he thought in his heart that the method Cao Guixiang said must be useful, he directly put the meat stuffing that had just been prepared on the side to find out if there was any cut meat stuffing.
.
Today, Aunt Wang is not here, so she went back to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings. The main force in cutting meat is the second son-in-law of the village chief's family.
The new batch of meat fillings had not been chopped yet, so Qin Huai had to make tang glutinous rice dumplings first. Go outside to see if Qin Luo was still arguing with Zhang Zhiyun. If the argument was over, let the child go into the house to write the paper.
The papers left by the tutoring teachers have not finished yet.
Qin Huai went out, but Cao Guixiang had no intention of leaving. She turned around in the kitchen, only looking at each finished filling without any action. Finally, she looked at the helper who chopped meat filling from a distance and looked for
The aunt with sleeves on her face cutting candied fruit.
"Girl, do you still have sleeves?" Cao Guixiang asked.
The old lady who cut the candied fruit didn't know Cao Guixiang, and thought she was a new helper and was very close to Qinhuai, so she could chat first and then work, and enthusiastically brought her a new pair of flower sleeves: "Yes, there are also aprons."
, I'll get it for you there!"
Two minutes later, Cao Guixiang, who put on the red apron flower sleeves, had fully integrated into the kitchen. Like all housewives who integrated into the kitchen, she found a class for herself in the Qin family's large kitchen during the Chinese New Year.
After completing the test work for Qin Luo today, Qin Huai returned to the kitchen. He was shocked when he saw Cao Guixiang's dress.
"Cao...Grandma Cao, you..."
"I'll help." Cao Guixiang said with a smile, picked up a big chopped meat machete from the knife holder and walked to the edge of the chopping board.
The helper in the chopping meat group naturally gave Cao Guixiang a seat. Today, the main force, Aunt Wang, was not here. Everyone thinks that Cao Guixiang must be the helper in chopping meat that Qin Huai has newly caught.
The second son-in-law of the village chief's family also enthusiastically introduced the work tasks to Cao Guixiang: "This meat must be chopped first and then chopped, use great strength, and... wait, let me see if there are any other requirements."
The second son-in-law of the village chief’s family forgot the words as he spoke and started to take out his cell phone.
Cao Guixiang answered: "To keep the meat in a tight and loose middle state, the filling itself does not need to lock in the juice, nor can it be too loose. It does not need to have a tepy texture like meatballs, nor can it be like chopped meat.
The cake is as soft and weak.”
"Yes, yes! That's it!" The second son-in-law of the village chief's family actually didn't remember exactly what the requirements were, but he thought Cao Guixiang was saying very correctly.
Seeing Qin Huai coming back, Cao Guixiang smiled at Qin Huai: "It's also idle. My old man is chatting with Secretary Qin. I think you are a little too busy here, so I volunteered to help chop meat. Master Qin, you should
Don't mind?"
"I don't mind, I don't mind." Qin Huai said repeatedly, his feet fixed on the spot and stopped leaving. He stood by and watched how Cao Guixiang chopped meat.
Cao Guixiang chooses meat before chopping the meat.
The advantage of going to the countryside is that the quality and freshness of the ingredients are guaranteed. In Huang Ji, Huang Anyao wants to get such good quality fresh pork from the supplier, so he may have to pay more money, and he also has to call the supplier in advance to notify the supplier.
The key point is to emphasize that Huang Ji had an important banquet that day that must have the best quality pork. In this case, it depends on the supply of the supplier, and you may not be able to get the best quality.
But in Qinjia Village, especially during the Chinese New Year, as long as Qin Huai thinks, if he sees a pig in the village in the morning, the pig will be cleaned by the best pig slaughter in the morning and appears in the Qinjia’s kitchen.
In an hour, the pork will turn into a meat dumpling and return to this family.
The vegetables and meat that can appear in the Qin family are strictly selected by villagers.
Cao Guixiang picked a few pieces of lean meat.
There is almost no fat meat, and it depends on the color and pattern. The fried meat must be very delicious.
Cut the meat into pieces.
Cao Guixiang looked just an ordinary and elderly housewife. The moment she held the kitchen knife, her aura changed suddenly. Not only did she say that her knife was sharp, but she was extremely strong when she chopped off her every knife and put the village next door.
The second son-in-law of the eldest family made him a lazy apprentice.
Soon, several pieces of lean meat were cut by Cao Guixiang into diced diced meat of equal size that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
The speed was so fast that everyone around was stunned.
The second son-in-law of the village chief's family was shocked and felt that the identity of the person in charge of cutting meat today was not guaranteed. He hurriedly asked the people around him: "She is also a beef ball?!"
"Where is her store open? Her craftsmanship looks much better than Sister Wang."
Qinhuai:…6
Cao Guixiang was not idle, and cutting the meat into diced meat was just the first step in making the meat filling. The real difficulty was actually to cut the diced meat into half the meat minced meat.
The concept of this step is very similar to the chopping of the crab flour lion head with a fine cut and thick cut, but the crab flour lion head pursues the chopped pork and diced meat, and use a rough big knife to cut it out several times.
The meat filling of Sixi Tangtuan does not need to be so rough. He needs to cut the meat into a state that is very close to the minced meat, and then chop it finely.
Cao Guixiang said that she would not make Sixi Tangtuan, but she couldn't tell at all when she chopped the meat.
The meat she chopped was so standard that it seemed like she had been secretly making Sixi Tangtuan at home for several years.
Cao Guixiang even had the leisure and elegance to chat with Qinhuai.
"Master Qin, I heard from Secretary Qin that you learn your skills in making snacks by reading recipes." Cao Guixiang said.
"That's right. When I was in elementary school, I bought a book called "Diet Sum" at the flea market. At the beginning, a lot of dim sum was followed by that book to school."
"But I have many masters in Gusu to guide me. Master Huang Shengli and Master Zheng Da from Huangji Restaurant have taught me a lot. Sixi Tangtuan learned from Master Zheng."
Cao Guixiang nodded, thinking that this was reasonable. She first relied on her own talent to explore and then made great progress after being guided by a famous teacher, otherwise it would be too perverted to rely solely on self-study.
Even more perverted than she was back then.
"Then what is your master?"
"There is no master." Qin Huai said, "Master Huang and Master Zheng are both half of my masters, but I have not worshipped the master in the true sense."
Qin Huai said, feeling a little embarrassed: "Actually, I know that Master Zheng really wants to accept me as his apprentice, but I really don't have this idea, I always feel..."
"The fate between master and apprentice is almost there." Cao Guixiang asked with a smile. When he saw Qin Huai, he smiled and thought it was Qin Huai's agreement. "This is normal. I don't know if the chef will accept apprentices now as I did back then.
When I became a disciple, my master was half of my parents sometimes even more important than my biological parents.”
"Accepting disciples is about fate, and becoming a disciple is about fate. If you think the fate is not here, you don't have to force it. If you are forced, it's good to be a registered disciple if you really can't be a registered disciple."
While talking, Cao Guixiang's meat filling was chopped.
After installing a basin, Cao Guixiang put down the knife: "You can divide it into several portions and try it a few more times."
"Although I have a master, I don't have an apprentice. I didn't mean to tell you how long it takes to soak, but I really don't know what this method is like for white snacks."
"I haven't taught my apprentice and don't know how to teach it. You can only try it yourself and watch me."
Qin Huai took the basin: "You are already very good at teaching."
Through the just-executed knife skills, Qin Huai has already determined in his heart that Cao Guixiang's cooking skills may be higher than Huang Shengli.
Huang Shengli couldn't do such a vague description, while chatting with people, while chopping out meat stuffing that he didn't understand but also had very suitable dim sum.
Qin Huai was still looking at the meat filling in the basin, and only felt that he saw the love filling in his dream!
Who knows what his family members do? He just seemed to fall in love with a plate of meat filling at first sight.
What a beautiful meat filling, what a beautiful color, what a delicate knife skills, what a delicate texture.
Who would have thought that an old lady who seemed so ordinary and slightly fat had such excellent sword skills?
This sword skill must be of master level!
No, maybe even above the master level, but because Qin Huai himself is too scared to know what is above the master level.
Qinhuai divided the meat filling into several parts and started soaking starch water according to what Cao Guixiang said.
Soaking starch water is a very vague statement.
Qin Huai initially thought that Cao Guixiang said that there were other methods to soak starch water, such as soaking the meat filling in starch water, so that the meat filling could fully absorb the starch water.
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one reading!
The result is nothing, it's pure bubbles.
Let the meat fillet take a bath in starch water.
