In the next few days, Chu Xian asked his uncle Chu Ming how to make dried fish.
In the past, he had learned to cook fish, but he didn't pay much attention to it at that time. The fish he made was only so-so, which was not at the same level as Chu Ming's cooking skills.
Making dried fish requires a special formula first, and the second is the production process.
The formula is Chu Ming's exclusive secret recipe, which he has researched and continuously improved for more than 20 years. The most unique thing about the formula is the taste.
Under normal circumstances, dried fish is mainly salty and spicy, but Chu Ming's formula has many more varieties, which can be divided into four flavors: peppery, spicy, sour, and tomato. Each of the four flavors is different. Very unique and very delicious.
Chu Xian wanted to learn how to make dried fish, and Chu Ming had no secrets. He even passed on the recipes for the four flavors to him, and then taught him how to cook them.
I have been studying for several days. Although I may not have made much progress in learning how to cook ordinary fish, I have still mastered the skills when it comes to making dried fish.
"Hoo ho!"
At about eight o'clock in the evening, Chu Xian came to a deserted riverside, lit firewood, took out a pot and shovel from the trunk of the car, and then ran to the riverside, where he held a carp, a crucian carp and a silver carp. Then I took out the two small abalone and squid I bought yesterday!
The abalone and squid have already been processed by Chu Xian. The two-liang small abalone is now only the size of a bird's egg after he compressed it. He dug a few holes in the middle to store the ingredients. The ingredients were put away yesterday and are fully flavored. They are ready. Get cooking.
There are several ways to eat dried fish made by Chu Ming. The simplest ones are steaming, secondly, stir-frying and finally boiling. If cooked, it needs to be paired with other fish to make the taste more beautiful.
The conditions are simple, so he can only use the most common method, which is steaming. When steaming, the dried fish needs to be wrapped to prevent the aroma from overflowing, and at the same time, the flavor of the ingredients can be integrated into the abalone and squid!
Compared with steaming, frying and boiling, the taste will be a little worse, but even so, Chuming's dried fish is very delicious when steamed.
He boiled the water, put the abalone and squid into it, and immediately started to process the carp, crucian carp and silver carp he had just caught. With a thought, several fish were quickly compressed, and then under his modification, the fish bones were individually selected. come out.
He took out the slicing knife, sliced the fish fillets into thin slices one by one, poured the ingredients into it, and Chu Xian packed them in vacuum bags.
Although this method cannot be said to be dried fish, there is no problem for his compressed fish. The most important thing is that this method can shorten the marinating time.
Ten minutes later, he took out the steamed dried fish, unwrapped the outside, saw that the ingredients on it had been integrated into it, picked up a small abalone and ate it.
"Hiss!" He took a gentle bite, and the rich aroma instantly hit his nose.
In fact, the abalone itself has no other taste except freshness. It mainly relies on the auxiliary ingredients. Chu Xian uses one with pepper flavor and the other with tomato.
As soon as he took it into his mouth, the fresh numbness instantly filled his entire mouth. He could feel his tongue dancing, and it was so numb!
"It's so good. The rice I had before was really spicy!" Chu Xian couldn't help but pick up another tomato-flavored abalone.
"Well, the tomato tastes a little bit different and doesn't match the abalone. It tastes relatively bland. The peppery, spicy and sour ones should match the abalone better." Chu Xian thought to himself, and then took out the squid from the pot.
Squid is suitable for frying, but for the convenience of steaming it directly, the squid comes in two flavors, one spicy and one sour.
"I'll rub it, it feels so good, it feels so good!" Chu Xian clicked his tongue and put one shredded squid into his mouth one after another. The passionate spicy squid and the extremely exciting sour squid were very chewy and filled his mouth with the aroma of delicacies from mountains and seas. Nothing more.
"I just don't know how the carp and silver carp taste?" Chu Xian finished several squids in a row and looked at the time.
The process of marinating the ingredients takes at least twenty-four hours, and the longer the marinating time, the deeper the flavor will blend in. However, since he made it directly into fish fillets, the time can be shortened a lot. Chu Xian boredly took out his mobile phone and called Xiaoying. They made a phone call and talked on the phone.
Two hours later, Chu Xian took out the fish fillets and steamed them in a pot.
"Well, yes, it's very competitive and tastes very good, but overall it's much worse than abalone and squid. After all, carp and silver carp are just the most common meat, which is relatively rough. Carp is not eaten in some countries, but if It would be good to use some more delicious sea fish to make it!"
Chu Xian ate pieces of dried fish and thought to himself. Of course, the premise of his unpalatable taste was that compared with abalone, squid, saury, etc., it was much more delicious than the dried fish made by his uncle Chu Ming.
It was almost eleven o'clock. Chu Xian packed up his things, then got a carp in the river as the result of the night's fishing, and drove towards his home.
In the next few days, Chu Xian wandered around the village during the day. Some villagers greeted him enthusiastically. In the evening, he came to the riverside. He visited the place where the shipwreck was sunk several times. The Chinese sturgeon had already Wandering away, he didn't know where he went. He dug several times in the sunken ship without giving up, but he didn't find anything.
Catching fish and cooking delicious food, Chu Xian has been living quite a leisurely life these days.
However, on his fourth day at home, an unexpected phone call came to him.
"Xiaoxian, your little shop is really popular these days. This kind of publicity method is really powerful!" A cheerful voice came from the phone, and Chu Xian smiled.
"Brother Jin, I am a victim, they were the ones who discredited me first!"
"Haha, you cunning little fox, you seize the opportunity very accurately!" Jin Sen smiled with some appreciation in his heart.
"I don't know why Brother Jin called me for something?" Chu Xian asked doubtfully.
"One thing is good for you." Kanamori said and paused: "Aquarama's 18th Ornamental Fish and Aquarium Equipment Exhibition will be held in our Jinghai City this year. I wonder if my little brother is interested in participating?"
"Aquarama?" Chu Xian was slightly startled. He had heard of Aquarama. It was an organization formed under the promotion of the Singaporean government. Since its establishment in 1989, it has been billed as synonymous with professionalism and top-notch in the aquarium industry. It is known as The world's highest level ornamental fish competition.
Every time Aquarama is held, most of the world's ornamental fish enthusiasts and fish farms that breed ornamental fish will participate in this feast. At that time, countless precious ornamental fish will appear on the exhibition stand, and many wealthy tycoons will come to buy.
Every time a champion fish of a kind of ornamental fish is sold, the price will not be less than one million. The more popular arowana, koi, arhat and the like can even reach the price of three to four to four to five million.
What fish should I choose to participate in the ornamental fish competition? hey-hey!
