Although it is said that the clear soup noodles also have a refreshing effect, the clear soup noodles are only suitable for the kind of quiet thinking and are not suitable for the noisy environment of the headquarters, so Meng Chuan still set out to make hot and sour soup.

As soon as Meng Chuan started making hot and sour soup, he suddenly remembered Hu spicy soup, because hot and sour soup and Hu spicy soup are almost the same on the surface, they are both mushy soups, Meng Chuan thought about whether he could make some spicy soup by the way when making hot and sour soup.

But after thinking about it, it still doesn't work, although both are paste-like soups, but the hot and sour soup is thickened by starch, and the spicy soup is made with water to wash gluten, which still can't be made together.

The recipe for hot and sour soup is simple, it's nothing more than cutting the ingredients into small pieces and putting them in a pot to cook, but if you want to make them better, you have to process them in order.

Meng Chuan first shredded the shiitake mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, carrots and tenderloin.

In general, Meng Chuan likes to marinate the meat first and make it, because in this way it can better absorb the flavor. Here, Meng Chuan can marinate the tenderloin with a little oil and cooking wine.

As for the tender tofu, there is no need to cut it into thin strips, firstly, it requires very good knife skills, and secondly, it is still troublesome, so Meng Chuan cut the tender tofu into small pieces and put it on a plate for later use.

Finally, Meng Chuan beat an egg into the bowl and stirred it well, and began to make it officially.

Pour oil into the pot and heat it, so you don't have to wait for the oil to heat up and fry the shredded meat, but just use warm oil, because the meat fried in warm oil has a very slippery surface and is more suitable for cooking soup.

Of course, this meat can't be fried for too long, otherwise it will lose the effect of warm oil and smooth frying, as long as you see the shredded meat change color, you can turn off the heat and take it out.

Take out the shredded meat, don't waste the oil in the pot, stir-fry the shredded mushrooms, shredded bamboo shoots, and shredded carrots directly, and finally add water and bring to a boil.

If you have dashi at home, it will taste even better to make this hot and sour soup with dashi.

However, the synthetic battalion has just returned from the exercise, and the ingredients have just been replenished from here, so there will not be spare bone broth or the like like in the station, so Meng Chuan can only cook it with water.

Because this hot and sour soup involves the steps of coloring, and the hot and sour soup, as the name suggests, also knows what the flavor is, so it will definitely not be colored with sugar, only soy sauce is the most suitable, Meng Chuan added two spoons of light soy sauce to the pot, and then waited for the water to boil.

The stove in the cooking class is fueled by diesel, and the heat is very high, so after a while, the water is boiling up, Meng Chuan immediately turned the heat into a low heat, and then poured tofu cubes and fried shredded meat into the soup and continued to cook.

The next step is the most important step, that is, Godian, this soup some people like a little thicker, while some people like a lighter one, this taste is different, so it depends on personal thoughts.

However, Meng Chuan suggested that as long as you see that the soup in the pot is sticky, then you can stop thickening it at all, and the soup that is too thick does not taste very good.

At this time, Meng Chuan poured the well-stirred eggs along the edge of the pot and beat an egg drop, which not only made the soup more beautiful, but also tasted a little better.

The final step is to add some flavor, vinegar and pepper and dried chili peppers, which are essential flavors in hot and sour soups, but Meng Chuan recommends adding these seasonings appropriately according to your taste.

After all, people don't eat food just to eat the taste, but to eat comfortably.

Meng Chuan adjusted the taste according to his own taste, so that a pot of hot and sour soup was completed.

Drinking this hot and sour soup is the same as spicy soup, you must drink it hot to taste the best, Meng Chuan immediately packed up the hot and sour soup, and then carried it to the battalion headquarters.

In the battalion headquarters, Duan Youna has been working hard to write, and Instructor Feng has not stopped, looking at the notes he has taken and writing a summary report.

Duan You's nose was very pointed, Meng Chuan was talking to the guard at the door with hot and sour soup, Duan You smelled it, and immediately stood up, "Lao Feng, don't write it, Lao Chuan has brought us soup." ”

Instructor Feng smiled when he heard that Duan You always called Meng Chuan all the time, "Old Duan, I think Meng Chuan didn't give up his life and forget his death in order to do things for you." Don't talk about it far, let's just say that this exercise, if it weren't for Meng Chuan's full support and help you, how could we win, he is now sending us soup to drink, I can't see where Xiao Meng is picking at all. ”

Duan You has been called a nickname for a few years, how could he change it casually, "Okay, Lao Feng, I don't worry about this matter, in public, I have never called him Lao Li, I know it in my heart." ”

As soon as Meng Chuan entered the door, he heard the two of them discussing themselves, "Yo, your nose is smart enough, I just came in, and you are ready to eat, just right, you can drink this hot and sour soup while it's hot, it tastes good." ”

Instructor Feng smiled at this time, "Xiao Meng, what did you do at the beginning to let Lao Duan give you a nickname for Lao Xuan, I don't think this nickname is in line with you at all." ”

Meng Chuan couldn't remember clearly, "A long time ago, Lao Duan called me like this, I forgot what it was, it seemed that I was just screaming, and I was used to hearing it, so I kept responding." ”

Meng Chuan didn't remember, but Duan You remembered it clearly, so he reminded him, "It's when we participated in the first exercise, at night, wasn't I hungry, you said to fry a steamed bun slice to eat, but when you cut the steamed bread slices, there were a lot of steamed bun dregs that fell on the cutting board, so you picked it up and ate it, so I called you Lao Pick." ”

Duan You reminded him like this, it seems that there is indeed such a thing, it seems that from that time, you began to call me Lao Li.

After listening to this, Instructor Feng admired it very much, "Xiao Meng, this is thrifty, this habit is very good, don't waste food." Besides, when someone cuts the cold steamed bun slices, it's not the scum that falls everywhere. Lao Duan, I strongly suggest that you change this nickname, you are disrespectful to Meng Chuan. ”

Hey, for this kind of thing, Instructor Feng can indeed manage himself, but Duan You can also listen to his own brother, why do you call him a nickname, "Okay, okay, my Instructor Feng, Lao Li has sent this soup over, why don't you hurry up and eat it." As the old saying goes, if you don't eat actively, you have a problem with your brain, if you don't eat, I'll be in trouble. ”

Instructor Feng just smelled the sour smell of this hot and sour soup, and his saliva came out, why didn't he eat it, "Hey, old Duan, you can't wrap up the ball, I want to eat it too." ”
