Chapter 648: Diao Tang
Jiang Feng went straight to Li's house, borrowed a chicken from Chen Suhua, and rushed back in a hurry. From the time he stepped into Li's house to the time Chen Suhua reacted and caught him a big, fat hen, to the time he left, it took no more than 5 minutes. .
He completely confused Chen Suhua this time, causing Chen Suhua to slowly walk to the study to find Professor Li before he could say:
"Lao Li, I think what Lao Zhao said is right. Xiao Feng seems to have provoked something dirty. How about we find a way to hire someone to give him some evil?"
Professor Li was originally reading the email sent to him by his doctoral student. Hearing what Chen Shuhua said, he couldn't help but shook his head: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you saying that Xiaofeng, a perfectly good child, is possessed by evil spirits."
When Chen Suhua saw that Professor Li didn't know anything about this matter, she quickly told him what Grandma Jiang had told him during this period.
The more Professor Li listened, the more solemn his expression became. He remained silent as if he had remembered something.
"I remember tomorrow is Xiaofeng's birthday." Professor Li said.
"Yes, Xiaofeng and the others seem to be going to climb the Great Wall tomorrow, and they'll do that stuff tonight," Chen Suhua said.
"Then let's go too."
"Where are you going?" Chen Suhua asked.
Professor Li shook his head: "Let's go climb the Great Wall."
Chen Suhua:?
Chen Suhua looked at Professor Li from beginning to end with suspicious eyes, feeling that his old arms and legs did not look like someone who could climb the Great Wall.
You just recovered from illness last year, and now you are actively climbing the Great Wall. Wouldn't it be bad if you post it on WeChat and your boss will see it?
"Let's take the cable car up." Professor Li stood up, stretched his neck, and glanced out the window.
The spring is bright and the sun is just right.
Of course, Jiang Feng didn't know that his behavior of borrowing a chicken to repay soup would lead to such a twist. After he returned to the kitchen with the old hen, which was lively and strong, and wanted to find a chance to peck him from time to time, he threw the chicken into the corner. After telling everyone that no one was allowed to touch the chicken, they began to work seriously.
It's just that his serious work tonight was a little less serious than in the past. Jiang Feng spent the whole night reviewing in his mind how Jiang Weiming drank the clear soup in his memory.
Jiang Weiming's pot of clear soup was hoisted from morning to evening, which took more than 9 hours. Jiang Feng made a rough calculation. If he returned home after 10 pm as usual, even if he cut corners and only stayed for 8 hours, he would have to wait until 6 am the next day for the soup to be ready.
The soup is cooked at 6 o'clock, breakfast is eaten at 7 o'clock, and we gather to climb the Great Wall at 8 o'clock. No matter how we look at it, the only ending is sudden death on the Great Wall.
The difference is nothing more than sudden death in the morning and sudden death in the afternoon.
The more Jiang Feng thought about it, the more frightened and frightened he became. If he risked his life in order to give his girlfriend a gift for their first anniversary, then he might be the best boyfriend ever.
Forget it, who wants to be this good boyfriend?
After thinking for two minutes, Jiang Feng chose to leave the job to his own father.
At 18:03 on April 15, Jiang Feng finished thickening the last eight-treasure chestnut pigeon and made sure that all the buff dishes that had been ordered were finished.
The hen caught it and shouted to her father.
"Dad, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home. I'm going back first. You can help me cook the remaining dishes!" Then Jiang Feng grabbed the chicken and ran away with lightning speed, stealing the bell and not letting anyone give in. Even his clothes were gone. Before he could change, he was afraid that Jiang Jiankang would react and catch him back.
It took Jiang Jiankang half a minute to react:...
Is his son's disease getting better or worse?
Others in the kitchen:? ? ?
It's over, it's over, the little boss is really crazy this time.
Jiang Feng came home wearing work clothes and grabbed the chicken. Without saying a word, he killed the plump hen with a knife. He bled and plucked the feathers in one go, racing against time.
There are three steps to prepare high-grade clear soup, one is boiling, two is cleaning and three is cooking. As the name suggests, cooking means putting the ingredients in a pot and boiling them, removing the blood and skimming off the blood foam, so that the ingredients can be used to make soup.
This step is very easy. Basically, this step is required when making meat soup.
Jiang Feng could not see this step in his memory at first, but he later saw the whole process of cooking clear soup through a video tutorial.
Bleeding the whole hen, removing the head, claws and internal organs, first soaking it in water to remove the remaining blood, and then blanch it in water to remove the covering. Even if the simplest step of removing impurities is completed, the chicken pieces can be put into the pot and Stew with other ingredients.
After finishing the first step of cooking, it is notoriously difficult and energy-consuming to clean.
Jiang Feng didn't sweep the soup very much. It's true that Tai Feng House always has stock stock, but the stock stock is just ordinary stock. The kind that only needs to be swept once or twice with red antler and white antler to remove most impurities is completely different from the high-end clear soup. Magnificent stock.
Not to mention the high-end clear soup that is as clear as white water, even the ordinary high-end clear soup that is light yellow in color and can be clearly seen as soup, Tai Feng Restaurant cannot find anyone other than Jiang Weiming to make it.
The old man might be able to do it, but Jiang Feng had never seen him do it.
The soup was boiling in the pot, and Jiang Feng was making red antler and white antler beside it. Pork and beef are used to make red paste, and chicken breast is used to make white paste. When the two types of meat paste are ready, it’s almost time to stir-fry the soup.
The temperature of the chicken clear soup when sweeping the soup should not be too high. Let the clear soup cool slightly before turning on a low heat. Put the minced meat into the pot and stir it slowly clockwise. As the clear soup in the pot slowly heats up, the minced meat will slowly mature, and finally it will condense into a ball and float on the surface of the soup before it can be taken out.
The removed minced meat cannot be thrown away. Rinse it with clean water, wrap it in a cloth bag, flatten it and set aside.
When Jiang Feng originally found the opportunity to help the old man cook the soup, he found this step difficult, mainly because it was difficult to control the heat.
The soup should be cooled before being poured into the soup, but the soup should not be left too cold and should still have a trace of residual warmth. When sweeping the soup, put the soup on the stove and simmer over low heat to slowly heat up. How should you control the heat at this time? How should you control the speed of the slow heating? What is the most appropriate temperature to fully cook the minced meat? Utilization, these are all knowledge.
It happened that Jiang Feng basically didn't understand much of these knowledge.
Not only Jiang Feng didn't understand, Wu Minqi didn't understand either, and Jiang Jiankang didn't understand either. It can be said that more than 90% of the chefs at Tai Fung House don’t understand.
If you don’t understand, learn.
Chefs are trained. They will not get worse with practice, but will only get better with practice. The first time sweeping the soup didn't work, the second time sweeping the soup didn't work, even the 99th and 100th time sweeping the soup didn't work, the 1000th time sweeping the soup didn't work, but as long as you don't give up, you will get there.
Of course, if it doesn't work even if it reaches 10,000 times, then it may really not work.
Sometimes you have to give up when it’s time to give up. If the clear soup doesn’t work, you can change to something else. Maybe the clear soup doesn’t have the talent to make soup stock.
Jiang Feng felt that as a cheater, he shouldn't be in such a miserable situation.
After several hours of intermittent cleaning of the soup, Jiang Feng clearly realized that his third grandfather might really be a god.
How do you get that clear soup as clear as white water?
Is that really something humans can make?
He knew the truth. Sweeping soup actually used the coagulation of collagen in animals to absorb impurities in the soup. Theoretically, as long as you sweep the soup enough times and do it carefully enough, you can definitely sweep out the soup as clear as white water.
But anyone who has taken experimental classes knows that every experiment has theoretical values, but few people have the opportunity to see others in person or calculate the theoretical values themselves.
Even if you use a pendulum to measure the acceleration due to gravity, you can't measure 9.8.
Anyway, Jiang Feng kept sweeping until Wu Minqi came back, and the soup didn't become clear at all.
"Fengfeng, are you making chicken soup?" Wu Minqi smelled the strong smell of chicken soup filling the air as soon as she entered the house, and asked while standing in the entrance and taking off her shoes.
Jiang Feng didn't hear it and didn't respond.
Wu Minqi put down her bag and walked to the door of the kitchen. She saw Jiang Feng, still wearing the Tai Feng Building employee uniform, carefully adjusting the heat and using a colander to scoop out the minced meat on the surface of the soup. She instantly understood that Jiang Feng was sweeping the soup.
"Fengfeng, are you making soup?" Wu Minqi asked.
This time Jiang Feng heard it and nodded: "It's almost the same. I want to try to see if I can make a high-grade clear soup."
Wu Minqi has eaten a lot of dishes made with high-end clear soup since she was a child, but when it comes to making high-end clear soup, she has never done it once. After all, in her cognitive scope, this kind of top-notch clear soup is not something she can learn at this stage.
Wu Minqi knew that high-quality clear soup was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and she also knew that when making such delicate dishes, it was most taboo to be disturbed by people talking next to her, so she nodded and prepared to leave.
Before she even stepped out of the kitchen door, Wu Minqi turned around and warned again: "I have to get up early tomorrow morning to climb the Great Wall. Fengfeng, please remember to go to bed early."
Wu Minqi glanced at the soup in the pot: "You can't force yourself to make high-quality clear soup. My dad also learned from my grandfather for many years before he started making it, and it took several years to make the first pot of finished product."
After Wu Minqi left, Jiang Feng realized that what Wu Minqi said just now was actually to comfort him not to be sad even if he couldn't do it.
Jiang Feng:?
Does my pot of high-end consommé really look so unlike high-end consommé?
Jiang Feng carefully looked at the clear soup in the pot.
It's quite unlikeable. (End of chapter)
