Chapter 166: Trying to make a roast pig

"Fate? How did you end up here?! Xun Yu was obviously a little stunned, more surprised, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Yeon, it's so good to see you!" When Guo Jia saw Xun Yu, he hurriedly ran over and hugged her into his arms. One of the two is one meter six or eight tall, and the other is one meter five, so as soon as they hugged, Xun Yu was immediately buried in Guo Jia's chest.

"Fate...... It's too painful......" Xun Yu hurriedly distanced himself from Guo Jia, and the mental pain was more serious than the physical pain...... It's all the same age, and I used to be able to touch my head to comfort her...... In a blink of an eye, she developed so well, a little unwilling!

"Yan, do you really want to pursue Wang Yong?" Guo Jia asked pitifully, with teary eyes, like a kitten or puppy worried about being abandoned by the owner, "So, are you going to abandon me?" ”

"Fate...... Don't say such strange things, you have always been my good friend, best friend......" Xun Yu's face showed a trace of unbearability, whether it was a pure friendship or not, it was difficult to say. The relationship between the two was too close before, they ate and slept together, can the relationship between the two really be explained by 'friends'?

"Woo meow......" Hearing Xun Yu say that, Guo Jia felt as if he had suddenly fallen out of love, tears swirling in his eyes, and they might drip at any time.

"Okay, okay, let's go to the side and talk slowly!" Seeing the gazes of several people around him, Xun Yu was also a little embarrassed, and directly dragged Guo Jia to the tent, "Don't eavesdrop!" ”

"Do you want to eavesdrop?" Seeing the two of them enter, Cao Ren asked with an expression of 'it's not a big deal to see the excitement'.

"That's ...... Not quite right? Xiahoudun was actually a little moved, but he couldn't wipe his face to eavesdrop.

"Forget it...... I feel that this will make them very embarrassed......" Wang Yong also persuaded, but then his ears twitched, and he seemed to hear some sounds.

It's also to blame the camp tent, there is no sound insulation effect, it's a little farther away, but he has good hearing.

I vaguely heard some crying and comforting sounds, but the effect of comfort didn't seem to be good, Guo Jia's emotions seemed to become very excited, and he was crying; As a result, the next moment I vaguely heard some "hmm...... Hmmm......" sound, as if the mouth was gagged. Then there was no sound in the tent, but it made people wonder what was going on!

After a while, Xun Yu took the lead in coming out, wiped the corners of his mouth, and gave a thumbs up to everyone: "It's done!" ”

"Woo meow meow ......" Guo Jia followed behind Xun Yu like a little daughter-in-law, and her cheeks were completely red. She was even embarrassed to look at everyone head-on, so she stood behind Xun Yu like this, her fingers clasped together, and her thumb kept turning in circles.

Super, super curious, what just happened! A few people outside couldn't help but complain in their hearts.

However, Guo Jia's emotions can be regarded as completely calming down. began to say hello to everyone, of course, I had to say hello to Wang Yong, the relationship between the two sides was actually not so stiff, but after the commotion just now, now I can't let go.

"Let's eat something, it's almost time to eat!" Wang Yong can only take the lead in finding a topic.

"So...... Shall I help? By the way, don't worry, those pigs you fostered in the house of everything have already been brought here. Guo Jia subconsciously replied, and then remembered that there were other things to explain.

"Oh, those pigs...... Except for the two pigs that tried to be castrated, the other piglets are meaningless, and the benefits of castration should already be known to the Wanshiya and the Chef's Guild...... How about eating roast suckling pig tonight? When Wang Yong heard this, he proposed after a little thought.

Originally, I disliked the pork of this era, and it was fed without castration, and it took more than two years to be slaughtered, not to mention, there was no fat. The key is that many people are actually raised directly next to the toilet, which makes the meat even more sassy!

So I planned to raise my own steers, the original idea was just to increase some available ingredients, and if it could be promoted as an exclusive patent, then naturally there would be a lot of income. Others can choose not to use the patent of the recipe, but the cooking skills and the cultivation of new ingredients are obviously not overlooked.

The fact that Wanshiwu was able to make an exception and give him C-level membership was largely due to his help in discovering the use of tomatoes and peppers, which is equivalent to one more seasoning and a new ingredient in this world. And membership can't be hereditary, that's the key.

Later, the money was earned, and the matter of gelding pig cultivation was not so important. Especially to come to Xu County, knowing that Guo Jia was not available, he handed it over to Wanshiwu for foster care, and at the same time submitted an application for gelding pig cultivation technology to the chef's guild.

"That's right! The technology has been recognized by the chef's guild, and the patent certificate is here......" Guo Jia looked in his bag and handed over a certificate to Wang Yong, "In the future, anyone who raises a steer will have 1% of the profit after selling it as a patent fee." After deducting the 10% commission, the remaining 90% will be credited to your account. ”

"Okay, thank you!" Wang Yong nodded.

"Roast suckling pig, it's pretty good!" Cao Ren is more concerned about roast suckling pig, he has eaten it before, the meat is very tender, there is no smell, and the skin is crispy, just a little recall, the liquid in his mouth involuntarily began to secrete.

"Roast suckling pig...... Xun Yu thought for a while, and looked at Wang Yong a little worriedly, "The difficulty is higher than that of roast sheep, don't worry about your current situation, can you really control it?" ”

If you want to say roast whole sheep, just roast the sheep to a fragrant taste; Roast suckling pig is not good, the requirements for sizing and roasting are very strict, and the skin must be crispy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The mixing of the crispy syrup and the heat of the roasting are very particular.

Generally speaking, if you want to bake well, you have to bake it in an open oven; And the slightly lazy way is to roast in the dark oven, and the final result is that ordinary people don't feel anything, but those subtle gaps, the gluttony can still taste it.

"You have to try it, otherwise how can you improve your cooking skills? Practice more, do more, and you'll be familiar with it! Wang Yong smiled, he really wanted to do it, but in fact, he didn't have the confidence yet.

"Worry-free, what's wrong?" Guo Jia keenly discovered something, and felt that something seemed to have happened to Wang Yong.

"By the way, Fengxiao doesn't know ...... yet" Xiahoudun suddenly understood, "Here's the thing...... Therefore, now worry-free, the level of cooking has slipped slightly, probably to the level of a senior chef. ”

"And it's the bottom part!" Cao Ren directly gave a mending knife.

"How so!" Guo Jia looked at Wang Yong worriedly, "Don't worry, it doesn't matter, right?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Wang Yong patted his chest, "This is my true level, but the previous state was not normal, if it continues like this, it will affect my subsequent development." ”

Then he found Wen Ming and told him to bring people back the suckling pigs, and then went to the back kitchen to make preliminary preparations.

"I'll help!" Guo Jia ran over, during this time, when she was working as a cook for Yang Xiu, she also secretly learned a lot of orthodox cooking skills, and her cooking skills improved a little.

The key is that you have to perform better and improve your cooking skills as soon as possible. Otherwise, Xun Yu will really be completely snatched away by Wang Yong! No one noticed that this girl in love was completely full of fighting spirit!

The most important thing for roasting suckling pig is to mix crispy syrup, and the raw material is maltose. Maltose is sold in the Everythinghouse, and there are retained in the materials in the kitchen.

This is probably the earliest source of sugar, and the ancient caramel was largely made from maltose. Before sucrose or beet sugar became the mainstream, maltose was the mainstream of sugar in Chinese history. Even if sucrose later became the mainstream, maltose still occupies a place in Chinese sugar.

Mix maltose and water, wait for the maltose to melt, and then add liquor and vinegar (Zhejiang vinegar) to mix thoroughly, and the finished product is crispy syrup. When blending, it should be noted that maltose can not be put too much, after all, it is easy to color when heated, resulting in the blackening of the finished product.

For seasonings, prepare salt, sauce, sugar, minced garlic, minced onion, rice wine and five-spice powder. Five-spice powder doesn't seem to exist in this world, but you can mix it yourself.

At the end of the day, the five-spice powder itself is a blend of peppercorns, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, and cumin seeds. According to the need, there are several recipes, which can be blended according to the needs, and the cooking effect of different recipes is slightly different.

"Almost, all that's left is to wait for the suckling pig to come...... Wang Yong was busy for a long time, preparing the oven, preparing the bamboo pole for stringing pigs, and of course, the iron wire.

Roast suckling pig is like this, poked from the anus, out of the mouth, from cutting and cleaning to pickling, and finally using iron wire as a 'suture', and then the pig is 'restored to its original state' for easy roasting.

"Master Chef, the suckling pig has been brought back!" Wen Ming took a few soldiers and brought four suckling pigs who were only three months old, in terms of size, they were actually slightly larger, after all, the general roast suckling pigs are six to seven catties of suckling pigs, these obviously have twenty catties, and there is a little fat.

"In this case, there are almost enough to eat at both ends!" Wang Yong thought for a while, "The other two ends, let's raise them first!" ”

"Yes!" When the soldier heard this, he didn't complain anything, and directly took the piglets down and raised them in captivity. In the back kitchen, there is a place dedicated to raising chickens, ducks, and other livestock.

Killing pigs to bleed and dehairing, the kitchen knife is split along the spine from the inside of the buttocks of the suckling pig, the plate oil is removed, and the 3~4 ribs and shoulder blades of the front chest are removed. Rinse thoroughly with water and drain off.

Marinate first with salt and five-spice powder, brush briefly in the abdominal cavity, wait for 30 minutes, and then mix the seasoning sauce, sesame paste, sugar, minced garlic, minced onion, Fenjiu and five-spice powder, evenly spread in the abdominal cavity, and marinate for another 30 minutes.

"I remember that later generations used a U-shaped fork to fix the inside of the roast suckling pig, and then directly roasted it like this, so that it roasted faster, but to roast it crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, it is still necessary to use this method...... "Wang Yong skewered the roast suckling pig, and then tied it with iron wire, and worked slowly and carefully, if you want to get delicious, sometimes you have to do it slowly.

Judging from the appearance, the piglets have returned to their original appearance, and it is hard to imagine that they were disemboweled, and the internal organs and bones were removed.

"It's almost time, the rest should be faster!" Looking at the time, there are still more than two hours before dinner, don't look at the time is quite abundant, the next steps are also very cumbersome, plus the piglets are large, don't hurry up.

It's no wonder that some restaurants in Guangdong Province in later generations have to make a reservation if they want to eat roast suckling pig.
