Chapter 879: Lotus Blossoms and Fresh Fish

Earlier, the sous chef also said that the buffalo meat has a light taste, and at the same time, the fat is not rich enough, and the key point is that it is not easy to cook when boiled. It is made of sliced buffalo meat and made into flowers, and it is not easily stewed after being stewed in red wine.

The shape is well maintained, and even if it collapses slightly, it can add a bit of naturalness to the flowers.

"No, no, no, it's still the same sentence, after the red wine has been stewed, the original flavor has completely volatilized, how can it still retain such a level of flavor!?" Zhang Fei emphasized, the previous words.

"But he did!" Guan Yu also reminded a little that it was that man who could do this.

"That's right!" The sous chef suddenly looked enlightened, "I remember, while cooking, the chef took the wine and said a word!" ”

After a pause, he continued: "He said at the time, 'Wine and meat are like partners who choose each other, and when the right wine meets the right meat, it is a romantic encounter.'" ”

In other words, if the right meat and the right wine are mixed together, the flavor will not be masked, but the flavor will be better enhanced. There is no strong taste, relatively light buffalo meat, paired with Baihua wine, and the result of stewing is to get a sublimated flavor!? Cao Cao thought for a moment.

"Not only that......" A voice came, I don't know when, Dian Jie had already appeared in the middle of the banquet, "I don't know if you can give me a seat?" I seem to be a little, late. ”

"Come and sit with me! But...... It's time for the main course. Guan Yu motioned for her to come over.

"It's okay, the chef also seems to have expected Miss Dian's return today, so he reserved one for her." The sous chef said with a smile, in fact, it was a bit of a pity, but Wang Yong said at that time that if Dian Jie didn't come back, this would belong to him.

"Then come up one after another......" Dian Jie nodded.

"By the way, you haven't finished your words just now!" Cao Cao was really curious at the moment, why did he have such a taste. This kind of beef is essentially eating beef, and the mellow and thick flesh feeling is actually really a lot, and the key is that she can't figure out until now, whether this is eating beef or drinking beef.

"First of all, buffalo meat, buffalo meat is light, but it is also more likely to be impregnated by other flavors, and the water absorption is also very good, so stew it with red wine, and the red wine will be completely impregnated into the buffalo meat, and the watery buffalo meat flowers are actually a glass of wine." Dian Jie explained.

In the expression of everyone's sudden realization, she continued to explain: "In addition, Baihua wine is often stored for a long time, so before quoting, it is necessary to change the bottle to 'decant the wine'. However, this effect can also be achieved when the water and wine are exposed to a large amount of water vapor by simmering over low heat, but the control of the heat is very demanding! ”

"It's just that, can't this dish be seasoned with other flavors?" Zhang Fei was a little puzzled, how could pure beef and red wine have such a mellow taste, and the faint salty aroma must have seasonings.

"The specific method of blanching or pickling is not clear, after all, I don't know the recipe. But surely the secret is in the pre-processing. The beef was apparently processed to already have a flavor before it began to be stewed in red wine, but the process was a complete secret...... You don't have to think about it to know how complicated the skills are! Dian Jie reminded that at this time, the back kitchen had already served dishes one after another, and she began to taste it slowly and stopped talking.

Actually, that's enough, after all, everyone is not a chef, and it doesn't make sense to know so much. Moreover, if the magician reveals the magic trick, it destroys the original happiness of the magic.

"Let's move on to the next dish!" Cao Cao looked inside the plate and picked up the last 'flower'. This is the only dish in the whole banquet that does not use flowers, but it is really whimsical to use wine to build the fragrance and charm of flowers. The point is, tonight's dishes seem to be spread out around this dish, which is really powerful.

"Sixth course, lotus fish!" The sous chef shouted, and the back kitchen brought the next dish one after another.

The plate is filled with lotus leaves, and there is really a lotus leaf on the plate, and on top of the fresh lotus leaf, there is a pink and white lotus flower, and there is a yellow stamen in the middle...... It was supposed to be something like a sauce, and it didn't look like a flowing sauce, but something like a semi-solid, like a freezer, or a salad dressing.

"Lotus flowers in this thing?" Cao Cao understood, and it was a flower-based dish.

"The flower language of lotus is loyalty and love, and the main ingredient of this dish is lotus petals, as well as minced fish, and in order to blend these two flavors, lotus seed minced is added." The sous chef explained, "In addition, lotus root sauce is added to the sauce! It can be said that all the essence of lotus is condensed in this dish! ”

The lotus flower, also known as the lotus flower, falls into the mud after the flower falls, and it is said that the lotus root slowly forms. The stamens grow slowly and then turn into a lotus pod, which produces lotus seeds. The lotus leaf itself can also be dried to make tea, clear heat and relieve greasy, suitable for people who are losing weight.

Look at the lotus flower in front of you, it is a combination of lotus seeds, lotus petals and fish minced back to restore the 'petals'. From a distance, it really feels a bit fake. Coupled with the pale yellow sauce, it looks like a lotus flower in bloom, which is very pleasing to the eye.

"So it's all about taste!" The previous dish is actually rich in flavor, but not greasy. After eating chicken wings and pear blossoms, as well as beef stew in red wine, Rao really wanted to eat something light, but there was a bit of a heavy sense of food.

Everyone picked up a piece of 'petal' and put it in their mouths to taste, the moment they bit down their teeth, there was a crispy feeling of 'click', and the feeling of grease was not very obvious, but obviously this petal was slightly fried.

It's just the surface part that is fried, leaving a thin layer of crispy pastry. After biting into it, the gravy locked inside, with the fragrance of lotus petals, and the sweetness of lotus seeds, burst out.

For a while, a sense of satisfaction arises spontaneously, and the appetite is maximally satisfied, and at the same time, it will not feel greasy.

This dish is after the main course, and it is an excessive dish, so it does not need to be too greasy, and the light flavor and slightly fried texture just play a role in carrying over.

"Lotus flowers can be so delicious?" Yu Ban said with emotion, eating this 'petal', the floral fragrance and fragrance of the lotus flower, there is really no way to ignore it, mainly lotus, it is really not ambiguous at all.

Maybe it's the relationship between lotus seeds, so the surimi and petals are well combined, and the umami and fragrance are well integrated.

"So this sauce, it must be ......" Zhang Fei curiously picked up a piece of 'petal', dipped it in some sauce, and then bit it down. The mayonnaise with lotus root juice added, the light and mellow feeling, is actually so good with the slightly fried lotus fish!

For a while, the teeth and cheeks were fragrant, and the whole person was completely immersed in it. The fragrance of lotus flowers lingers in my mind, as if a grass carp fluttering in the lotus pond, splashing a splash, and the water splash falls on the lotus, leaving a little water droplet.

Beautiful, elegant, for a while there is a feeling that the soul has been sublimated......
