Chapter 878: Golden Wheat (Part 2)
In the early morning, the mist was still spreading in the deep alleys.
Xia Yu got up early.
All practice projects have been temporarily stopped and the energy is focused on studying new ingredients.
"Golden Wheat", "Taobi Egg", "Sparkling Slippery Fish"...
If you have to make a choice between these three, Xia Yu did not hesitate to study "Golden Wheat".
Is the reason? It is normal to be flirting with the old. I have used "forbidden bird eggs" and "shiny silk-foot fish" to cook delicious food more than once. I have played with it. The ingredients have been more or less 70% or 80% . On the contrary, "golden wheat" is brand new to Xia Yu and unknown.
Exploring unknown areas is always full of energy.
What's more, the information obtained from Ye Feizhou in this selection of the Liu clan shows that the topic of this selection is "pasta", so studying "golden wheat" is even more of a move to go with the flow.
Although it only took one night, Xia Yu has been studying in the mysterious space for almost a week in the past 12 hours, and is working in a state of sleepless and full sleep.
"Um……"
Look at the small basin on the kitchen counter, which is a small piece of dough, like gold and jade, and while it is clear, it has a bright golden light.
Xia Yu pressed his chin and was stunned for a moment, "At least, I have passed the step of sucking water and kneading the dough!"
Next to the basin, there is about one-third of the water left in a ladle.
This clean water is scooped out of the water tank.
Don't forget a common secret between the grandfather and grandson of Xia
Meteorites outside the sky!
That's right.
After settled down at the old house, the stone brought back from Japan was naturally placed in the old house water tank. As a result, the water in the water tank was purified, and there was a vague trend towards the "cold water" of Baiyulou's specialty.
Therefore, it is not difficult to see that Xia Yu used relatively special water to pass the step of "absorbing water and kneading dough".
"Is water quality, or the quality of water, very important?"
Xia Yu reached a phased practical conclusion.
"So, next..."
His eyes showed hesitation.
The dough is kneaded, and the next step is to use the dough to make buns, noodles, etc.
In other words, the "golden wheat" dough must be formed into a recipe.
Recipes can be created, and of course, old recipes can also be used to try to incorporate new ingredients. Xia Yu has rich experience in this. For example, the classic recipe "Frost Submersed Magic Mapo Tofu" that has almost become his business card is not just improved by integrating "Frost Submersed Tofu"?
Creating a new recipe out of thin air is much more difficult than integrating new ingredients on the basis of old and classic recipes.
So, how to proceed to the next step, Xia Yu is confident.
"Golden wheat" is a comprehensive, dreamy pastry raw material, which is the food that countless modern pastry masters dream of. If the heroes a hundred years ago, such as the iron stick Jieqi and the pastry king Luogen, they could get in touch with these fantasy materials in advance, then the ancient recipes such as "Golden Laughing" and "Four Gods Seafood Eight Treasures Soul-Suppressing Buns" will inevitably be replaced and go further..."
Ancient recipes have the advantages of ancient recipes, but they also have their disadvantages.
In this generation, new fantasy ingredients are emerging one after another. IGO official launches new ingredients tables every year for chefs to learn and study. If the heroes traveled to the current generation a hundred years ago, it is not difficult to imagine that the recipes they have at hand will definitely usher in a wave of improvement.
Although the ancients were not here, today people can inherit their recipes and recast classics!
"Just let "golden wheat" be integrated into the golden pastry recipes such as "Golden Smiling" and "Four Gods Seafood Eight Treasures Soul-Suppressing Buns", which are too difficult... In short, it is easy to start and then difficult, and the truth is right!"
Xia Yu looked through his own ingredients and the appropriate blue-purple pastry recipe.
At this time.
"Mr. Xia!"
A cheerful cry was like the chirping of birds in the early morning, very clear.
Liu Ying ran out of another smaller kitchen in the old house, panting and stopped behind Xia Yu. She was holding a ramen bowl tightly in her hand. The bowl was the new dish she was very proud of a while ago.
Like offering treasures, Liu Ying presented a bowl of ramen, and her little face inevitably showed nervousness, "Mr. Xia, you asked me to try to use "golden wheat" to cook, I, I did it!"
"ha?!"
Xia Yu was shocked and staggered.
Putting the ramen bowl on the table, he did not question Liu Ying, but stared at the "cai mushroom noodles" that was very different from the ones he remembered.
Within the view, the soup noodle with ripples has a golden fluorescent effect!
But if you look closely, it is the noodles in the soup that are shining.
Moreover, the treasure in the bowl, "cai mushroom", is closely combined with another new treasure that cannot be described. One is an ethereal and elegant taste, and the other is a full of dreamy aura.
Sniff it lightly, the melody of the intertwined treasures was like a white snake, the golden snakes entangled each other, and Xia Yu's eyes widened slightly in surprise.
"I'll go, no..."
I was still worried about the second step and regarded it as the "Demon King's Small Tiger" and brought out the golden wheat dish?
incredible!
His eyes were shaken, and he was not reserved. He took the chopsticks and ate noodles with a big mouthful.
As the noodles and soup were imported, the pair of eyebrows frowned.
The smell of the 'Cali mushroom' mushroom disappeared almost invisibly and was covered by another dazzling golden dust.
chew!
For a moment, the mouth only had the complex taste vented by noodles.
Xia Yu chewed and chewed, but the shadow of pasta such as ramen, udon, pasta, etc. flashed through her mind, whether it was Japanese pasta, Chinese pasta, or light or heavy...
Anyway, it's the feeling of swallowing them into your stomach.
This is the first time Xia Yu has eaten the real taste of "golden wheat", which is shocking. "No wonder it is a dreamy pastry ingredient, and it eats all the food in the sky in one bite!"
He put down his chopsticks and closed his eyes to ask the system:
"System, let's determine the completion of this bowl of ramen."
“Unknown ramen completion is 56%.
That's it.
Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but open his eyes to Liu Ying, "Did you say how did you do it? The first step is to absorb water and knead the dough, how did you pass it?"
The master's refreshing smile made Liu Ying feel at ease. She said happily: "Actually, I have not gone through the steps of absorbing water and kneading dough. I found that using ordinary water will make the golden wheat absorb and expand in any case, so I changed my mind to mix and match the golden wheat with ordinary flour. As for the matching ratio, I tried it all night and found that the ratio of 1 to 22 is the most suitable, that is to say, using 1 gram of golden wheat, you must mix 22 grams of flour..."
"Well, I used the golden wheat as the 'salt' for kneading dough! I regard it as a seasoning!"
Liu Ying added.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu's face gradually became solemn.
...
Chapter completed!
