Chapter 149 Uninvited
Ten minutes later, the steamed squab will be ready.
Now comes the most critical step of thickening, which is also the most important part of this eight-treasure chestnut pigeon dish.
Sun Guanyun's thickening is different from ordinary thickening. It uses squab soup to thicken the soup, which is the soup made from the shaved bones of the squab. The pigeon soup used to thicken the soup had been simmered for just as long as the Babao Chestnut Pigeon had been made. He tasted the soup first and thought it was good, so he asked Jiang Feng to taste it too.
Wu Minqi's face was full of envy, like a child who couldn't get candy, but her playmate had a big basket of candy, how could she not be envious.
Sun Guanyun laughed. He had long heard that Old Man Wu's precious granddaughter was a crazy cook, and her reputation was well-deserved. He was not afraid of thickening the soup. He dared to teach it, so he was sure that Jiang Feng had no ability to learn it.
Wu Minqi doesn't have that ability either.
"Girl from the Wu family, come and try it too." Sun Guanyun said with a smile.
Wu Minqi was so flattered that she didn't want any of the dishes she grabbed, and walked quickly to Jiang Feng to taste the pigeon soup.
"When the heat is almost at this point, you can start to thicken the sauce." Sun Guanyun said, his hands kept moving, and he kept shaking the spoon, and soon the sauce was ready.
"The gravy can ensure the temperature of the squab. The taste of this dish depends entirely on the temperature. You need to find the temperature of the gravy that is really suitable for pouring on the squab to make this dish perfectly." Sun Guanyun said, " I can't teach you this, you have to figure it out on your own. It's a feeling and a talent. I can tell you some techniques when you thicken it yourself, but the most important thing is that you have to rely on yourself."
Sun Guanyun looked at the gravy in the pot quietly. He had taken the pigeon out of the steamer and was slowly cooling down. Suddenly, he scooped up a spoonful of gravy and slowly poured it on the squab, one spoon after another, with slow movements and a focused expression.
After pouring the last spoonful of gravy, Sun Guanyun put away the spoon.
The eight-treasure chestnut pigeon is out of the pot.
"One minute later is the best time to taste it." Sun Guanyun said.
The little squab, with a round belly, is placed on the plate and is light brown.
Sun Guanyun got it and slowly cut open the belly of the squab, and the plain stuffing inside immediately rolled out. It was white and yellow, very attractive.
The delicacies in the world are nothing more than this.
"Dip some juice when eating." Sun Guanyun said.
Jiang Feng took a spoon and scooped a little bit, and dipped a little bit of the soup at the bottom. There were only so many people in the store, and there wasn't enough food for each person to take a bite of the little eight-treasure chestnut pigeon.
In the mouth, the original flavor of the pigeon meat is vividly reflected, and the ingredients fully absorb the taste of the pigeon meat. Several vegetarian dishes complement each other, absorbing the fat of squab, and are not bland. The chestnut velvet and lotus seed powder blend with each other. The texture and taste are so excellent that Jiang Feng can't help but sigh:
"Fuck."
Sun Guanyun really made a dish perfect.
Jiang Feng quickly ran to the kitchen and shouted outside: "Mom, Ji Yue, come and eat the eight-treasure chestnut pigeon. It won't taste good when it's cold!"
Han Guishan and Xu Cheng, who had just entered the healthy stir-fry restaurant, looked at each other and smiled.
"You are still the best." Han Guishan said.
"I said it's just the right time, but you still have to tell me it's early, so hurry up and it won't taste the best after all." Xu Cheng said with a smile.
Xu Cheng was walking in front of Han Guishan. Just as he was about to enter the kitchen, he was stopped by Jiang Feng who was still licking the spoon.
"Hello, we can't...Mr. Han here?" Jiang Feng saw that he was about to enter the kitchen and wanted to stop him, but then he saw Han Guishan behind him.
Xu Cheng took the opportunity and walked into the back kitchen with an S-shaped movement, and said: "I'm looking for Mr. Sun."
"Jiang Xiaoyou!" Han Guishan was also a little surprised when he saw Jiang Feng, but time waits for no one. One step slower and one second later, the taste of the eight-treasure chestnut pigeon changed. He kept talking and moving his feet, "What a coincidence. It turns out you know Mr. Sun.”
Jiang Feng still held a spoon in his hand, so it was obvious what he had just eaten.
When Jiang Feng called for people, Ji Yue was already at the door and had already made her way into the kitchen. Now she had eaten everything, and while eating it she sighed: "Oh my gosh, this is so delicious. What is this, pigeon meat?" How can it be so delicious! ”
"It's chestnuts, lilies, lotus seeds and some vegetarian food, but no pigeon meat." Wu Minqi kindly reminded.
"Oh my god, these are simply the most delicious chestnuts, lilies and lotus seeds I have ever tasted!" Ji Yue immediately changed her mind, turned around, saw Xu Cheng, and showed a professional fake smile, "Sir, this is the queen... …”
"I'm looking for Mr. Sun." Xu Cheng smiled and nodded at Ji Yue, and said to Sun Guanyun, "Old Sun, what a coincidence, you are really in great spirits today, and you actually made the eight-treasure chestnut pigeon here. You already have I haven’t done this in eight years, it’s really rare!”
"Oh, you're looking for Grandpa Sun." Seeing that Xu Cheng knew Sun Guanyun, Ji Yue ignored it and concentrated on tasting the eight-treasure chestnut pigeon in the spoon.
Sun Guanyun saw Xu Cheng as if he had seen a ghost, and then saw Han Guishan behind him, and realized what was going on. He said angrily: "You are everywhere, you can guess it even if I buy a squab egg. Forget it, Come on, you should try it and see if my skills have deteriorated.”
Xu Chengcheng waited for this sentence, took a spoon from the side, scooped out half a spoonful, and dipped it into the soup at the bottom.
Han Guishan didn't understand, so he took half a spoonful and ate it dryly.
"Mr. Sun, your craftsmanship has not deteriorated over the years but has taken a step forward. This dish is better than what I had eight years ago." Xu Cheng praised sincerely.
"Yes, yes." Han Guishan agreed.
Jiang Feng stood at the door and thought for a while. When Wang Xiulian came in after wiping the table outside, he remembered that the person in front of Han Guishan was Xu Cheng. No wonder he looked so familiar.
Why are they both here?
Wang Xiulian had become accustomed to the presence of people she didn't recognize in the kitchen of her restaurant. She walked to the Babao Chestnut Pigeon and scooped out half a spoonful, leaving half a spoonful for Jiang Jiankang, who was still cooking.
When Jiang Jiankang finished the last half spoonful, there was still a little soup and pigeons with more skin and less meat on the plate, but with outsiders present, everyone was more reserved, which gave Ji Yue an advantage. She was so thick-skinned that she took the last bit and went out to the second floor to lick the plate.
"Okay, don't bother other people's business with the back chef of other stores. If you have anything to say, say it outside." Sun Guanyun spoke.
"You can go to the second floor. There are no guests on the second floor right now." Wang Xiulian said, going out to greet the guests.
Everyone began to perform their respective duties. The three old men went to the second floor with Xu Cheng and Han Guishan, while Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi went back to continue cooking.
"How much did you learn from thickening just now?" Jiang Feng asked.
"Two points, after all, it's a stunt, you can't master it just by watching it once." Wu Minqi said.
Jiang Feng:...
"What about you?"
"Bare... almost."
He also has two points, but on the 100-point scale.
The last bite of "My Sister is a Superstar" before it goes on the shelves...
