Chapter 591: Braised Duck in the Oven

Bai Kitten glanced at Qin Wuyong strangely,

"I said that the painting style of this fork is so different from a table of dishes, it turns out that Lin Chou didn't make it at all."

Qin Wuyong felt that he had been insulted,

"What a fork! Is there a little vision! This is the chef's original mussel meat skewers under the wise guidance of Boss Lin, and you can eat one skewer and think two skewers, which is more than a big waist. ”

β€œ...”

Everyone silently looked at the gadget in Qin Wuyong's hand:

It was a Y-shaped wooden fork at least half a meter long, and a round ball between the two pieces of wood was tied up with rattans.

"Ahem" Qin Wuyong himself was a little embarrassed, pointing to the ball and saying, "Look at this.... Uh, the surface of this ball is slightly burnt texture, crispy but not mushy, and then look at the meat inside, the meat is juicy, don't look at this shape is very maverick, in fact, it has been cut into large slices of black lipped shell meat and smoked flying fish flakes together, each piece of meat I have separately tasted, with lemon leaves, clemat vine powder, oh yes, and borrowed some American devil peppers from Boss Lin. ”

The crowd continued to be silentβ€”the expression was like a moment of silence.

The long face is so anxious,

"So how the hell is this thing going to be eaten?"

Qin Wuyong was very satisfied with the support of his long face, and he took out a large shiny knife out of nowhere, and smacked it a few times, as if peeling an apple, and the snow-white meat slices fell into the bowl one after another, which looked strange and pleasing to the eye.

A large bowl full of shellfish slammed in front of the long face,

"Come on, come on, taste, be full~"

Long Face looked at the big bowl that was longer than his own face, "That, that... I'm just asking... Not really..."

Qin Wuyong grinned, and his smile was quite hideous.

The long face coughed, and carefully put a piece in his mouth,

"Huh? It tastes like... I'll try it again..."

After the long face has "tasted" the whole bowl of meat slices,

"Hiccup~ It would be nice if there was a bowl of white rice, useless brother, it's not me who said, you have to set up a stall at the gate of the martial arts school, and the designation is much more popular than 'Aunt Zhang's barbecue bibimbap', well, there is no sesame oil, almost meaningful."

Qin Wuyong was originally quite happy, but when he finished speaking, his face was dark.

Watching the fans' barrage boos fly, he wittily explained,

"Ahem, in fact, the main reason is that this fish is a little unfresh, it's not that I haven't caught a fish, I still use the flying fish a few days ago, it's a complete accident, an accident."

The long face burped, "I'm still more concerned about where Boss Lin got that duck." ”

Lin Chou patted his head,

"Don't you say I forgot, the duck is still in the stove!"

β€œοΌŸβ€

Lin Chou faced everyone's puzzled expressions, "Come on a few people, shovel the fire, and there is an oven buried underneath!" ”

β€œοΌβ€

A group of people put out the makeshift kitchen fire, dug open the ground, and dug up a giant stone ball more than two people high.

This stone ball is tied together with two hemispheres, and the gap in the middle is sealed with yellow mud, and the originally wet mud has long been dried and very hard.

After Lin Chou brandished a wooden stick to break the yellow mud seal and cut and bundle the vines, he lifted the upper part of the stone ball as soon as he stretched out his hand.

"Boom!"

The steam inside burst out like a mushroom cloud, enveloping the nearby space of several square meters, and the huge amount of steam was mixed with wisps of pale cyan smoke, which were hotter and full of meat.

Fortunately, everyone is an evolutionary with high blood and high defense, so they were not burned.

"Hey, it's so fragrant."

The beautiful sound of "Zilala" came from inside, and everyone looked intently, only to see a duck with a red body and oily body lying on its back in the pot.

"Wow ~ roast duck!"

"Hey, I don't know, don't see the whole duck, it's called roast duck, the roast duck has to be charred on the outside and tender on the inside, look at the duck in the pot, the skin is still tender."

Lin Chou stretched out his hands at Qin Wuyong, "I'll leave it to you, I think you're quite skilled in the action of the piece of meat just now..."

Qin Wuyong said with great interest,

"Look, okay, you're just!"

Soon, a large plate of sliced duck meat was served.

I have to say that Qin Wuyong's craftsmanship in slicing meat is really true, each piece of duck meat is a standard one-centimeter thickness with skin oblique blades, and the same color duck skin is neatly placed on the plate, steaming.

Qin Wu Yong said happily,

"Boss Lin, everyone was guessing what kind of method you are doing with this duck just now, you can tell me about it."

Lin Chou scratched his head,

"Actually, this should be considered a braised duck... Under each fire there are fuel blocks brought by the scientific expedition team, which was dug very deep, and after the fire roasted the pit hot, the spherical oven containing the duck was put down, and the fire continued to burn above, and the bottom was roasted with residual temperature, and the duck's stomach and skin were filled with brine - in fact, the duck was almost completely spherical when it first entered the furnace, hanging in the center of the spherical furnace and not in direct contact with the inner wall, the temperature of such a simple hearth was much lower than that of the oven, and the brine in the duck's body seeped out and dripped in the furnace during the heating process. It turns into red-hot steam, which is used to fumigate the ducks. ”

"Because the yellow mud seals the gap and buries it in the ground, the speed of steam running out is actually very slow, and the temperature will be about 170 degrees Celsius at the beginning, which can be called ' Roast', the water on the surface of the duck will be steamed dry, the cortex shrinks tightly, and a layer of burnt yellow is slightly hung, and with more and more steam, the temperature will gradually drop, but due to the air pressure, it will not drop below 110 degrees in the end, which becomes a long-lasting fumigation method, if the time and temperature control are just right, when the brine in the duck's belly flows clean and the steam in the furnace dissipates, the duck is just ripe - after all, the power of the yellow mud seal is very limited. ”

Cypress kitten said,

"So it's just waiting for the brine in the duck's stomach to drip out and fall on the surface of this big ball and turn into steam, and the duck will be steamed?"

"Hmm... In general, there is a slight difference from steaming..."

"What a pervert!"

β€œ...”

I'm rubbing, where is the perverted hey!

Lin Chou rolled his eyes wildly, "Can you swallow the duck in your mouth when you say this?" Doesn't your conscience hurt? ”

The cypress kitten looked at him inexplicably,

"What does this matter to my conscience?"

Lei Heng coughed lightly, interrupting the strange confrontation between the two,

"Let the old man taste the strange braised duck that tastes like this..."

When Lei Heng's chopsticks touched the duck meat, he was stunned, because the texture of the duck meat was squeezed by the chopsticks, and a trace of pale red gravy appeared.

As an academician of the Academy of Scientific Research, of course, he can distinguish what is "myoglobin" and what is "blood water", and he will not be stupid enough to think that this duck is not ripe, but the tenderness of this duck has greatly exceeded his imagination.

The duck's muscle fibers are so distinct that you can almost see the fine marks that break off after the knife cut, and the whole piece of duck meat is tightly connected to the duck skin by a thin layer of subcutaneous fat with a yellowish yellow, and if you don't consider the texture and look at the color alone, you can hardly tell the difference between this layer of fat and duck skin.

Lin Chou said,

"Duck is thicker than chicken and goose fat layer, many people don't like too fat duck, of course, the original taste of duck fat does have a faint fishy smell, this kind of braised duck is heated from the surface, the skin and subcutaneous fat will be roasted by heat will be poured out of duck fat, some of these duck fat drip directly onto the furnace wall, and some slowly dip into the gap between the duck fibers, and so the duck as a whole heats up, their stomach, the brine under the skin is also at a temperature close to boiling, With the circulation and exudation of the brine, more than half of the duck fat will be excreted from the body, and the rest can just play the role of tender meat. ”

Lei Heng nodded again and again,

"It's the first time I've heard of this statement, so I must try it."

When Lei Heng sent this piece of tender duck meat into his mouth, the tip of his tongue had not yet touched the meat, and the strong marinated aroma had occupied the entire mouth, and Lei Heng was very keen to "taste" including peppercorns, green onions, garlic, thyme, pepper, tangerine peel (maybe lemon peel?). and so on, the mellow compound fragrance, which is extremely strong but exceptionally fresh, combined to make this taste somewhat similar to the feeling of fresh grass and trees, it can be said that before the main play opened, he first experienced a "cultural" invasion.

"This is how fat four... Very strange scent..."

The gravy in his mouth made Academician Lei's voice a little off-track.

Lin Chou explained,

"Well, in fact, the main spices are mixed with lemon peel, twigs and sorrel, and their flavors are relatively sharp, and even if there are other dry aromas, people can immediately feel the smell of fresh spices."

Lei Heng carefully felt the duck meat in his mouth, and the surprise brought by the duck meat was far more than these, the tender and resilient duck skin took the lead in launching an offensive, the light and spicy marinade was like a thousand horses crossing the river, bursting out of the duck skin, every time he chewed, the juice splashed out was like a miniature drumstick on the tip of the tongue and in the mouth.

"Hmm... This duck skin... Wonderful, the duck skin feels like there's no grease in it, and it seems to have been replaced by brine... The brine is also extraordinary, and it is so light? How is the red color on the duck skin formed? ”

Lin Chou said lightly,

"This is one of the benefits of filling the marinade in the duck, the marinade is actually very light, in order to remove the oil and relieve the greasy, but the penetration of the duck meat has reached the degree of saturation, as for the color, it is mainly the natural sauce red baked out - when the water vapor in the spherical furnace evaporates, the bottom of the furnace is only the duck's fat, which will continue to be heated at high temperature to form smoke, smoked and roasted, and the color of the sauce red is mainly like this."

Everyone thought of Lin Chou's words before, and then carefully tasted the braised duck in the mouth, and found that all these steps were not as simple as he said, it was not at all possible to fill the duck with brine and throw it into the stove to roast and roast, the duck could not be seen or wiped in the spherical furnace, and it was actually necessary to make the duck like this, in fact, it requires very high precision, and it is necessary to accurately combine the details such as the control of the furnace temperature change, the control of time, and the arrangement of seasoning, all of which are indispensable.

Lei Heng suddenly said,

"Lin Chou, are you interested in coming to the scientific research institute to play a big game, the sixth sense tells me, you are definitely the best candidate to play with the source energy ark reactor! The principle is not much different! ”

β€œ...”

Not only Lin Chou, but a bunch of black lines popped up on everyone's faces.

Lin Chou reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth,

"If you're talking about that long, boiler-like explosion that can lift half of the base city into the sky...... I think I'm still honestly guarding the small restaurant. ”

"Hahaha~"

Lei Heng was not annoyed, and laughed with everyone.

"Speaking of which, this is the first decent New Year I have had since I entered the scientific research institute."

"Who's to say it isn't."

"Last year, my buddy was in the laboratory, the year before was Zushan, the year before last, he was amazing, I squatted in a living corpse lair for a month, and when I came out, it was another year."

The kitten muttered,

"I don't think there's anything wrong with spending the New Year in the laboratory, so many people are together, it's very annoying and nerve-wracking."

Jin San whispered, "This girl is an orphan, she grew up in the research institute, well... Didn't like the outside too much. ”

Everyone nodded.

Bai Kitten didn't care what Jin San said, just stared at Lin Chou and said,

"Crooked, I said, can you let me take a test tube of blood, just draw blood, so stingy."

As he spoke, he also poked Qin Wuyong's version of the slingshot with a knife, and after a while, it was full of small holes.

Lin Chou shuddered, mad, or else, it's really dangerous to look at...

Eating and eating, everyone's enthusiasm became more and more inflated, everyone was red as if they had drunk a lot of wine, and there was a little more popularity on the silent desert island.

However, the sky always did not fulfill people's wishes, and the depths of the island suddenly made a loud roar, and the ground trembled violently, and the whole island seemed to be crumbling and could sink again to the bottom of the sea at any moment.

"What's going on?"

"Where's the seismometer?"

"Quick, take care of the equipment..."

"Boom!"

An even more violent roar rang out, and a bolt of fire lit up the island, and it was from the top of the strange crater that it erupted.

"I smell the gas..."

"There's oil under my island?"

"It's over, let's leave the equipment in the cave......"

The island finally shuddered a few times, and the tremors subsided.

However, the blazing fire on the top of the mountain did not weaken in the slightest, and had turned into a huge torch, and the whole island was as bright as day.

In a matter of moments, the temperature around the island was noticeably climbing, and clusters of sparks began to slide down from the summit.

"Damn, this fire has such a high temperature? Burned the stone red so quickly? ”

Lei Heng was stunned and looked at the fire that penetrated the sky and the earth for a long time, before gritting his teeth and saying,

"Pack up our things, we retreat, now the situation on the island is unknown, in order to avoid unnecessary danger, let's go back to the ship to observe first."
