Ye Fei cooked two delicacies in one go, braised duck cubes with sand tea and chestnuts and Zao Liu Sanbai. It could be said that they were cooked in one go, without much pause in between.
When Zao Liu San Bai was ready, just when everyone thought Ye Fei was going to take a rest, who knew that he actually took out a large bag of ingredients from the storage compartment again, and saw that the shape of the bag of ingredients was a bit strange. One by one, each root is long and has a thin front end.
When seeing this ingredient, many people didn't react for a while and didn't even know what it was.
Ye Fei introduced: "For the next delicacy, we will make money by making duck."
"Duck profit? What is duck profit?"
"Oh, I know ducks have duck hearts, duck livers, duck blood, duck brains, etc. Why do you still make money out of ducks?"
"Oh, I bought it, what the hell?"
"Mr. Jin Zhuxian, do you know what duck profit is?" Brother Dingding asked Jin Zhuxian.
Jin Zhuxian rolled his eyes at him and said to himself that I don't know as much about China as you do. You ask me
Seeing that Jin Zhuxian ignored him, Brother Dingding persevered and turned around to ask Baby Matsui again.
"Matsui-san..."
Before he could call out, he saw baby Matsui walking away humming a song.
Don't ask me, my understanding of China is about the same as that of Jin Zhuxian.
Seeing that there was no one around, Brother Dingding still refused to give up. He came to Chi Tianxia and asked, "Mr. Chi, what is the duck profit that Ye Sen is talking about?"
Eat all over the world: "...First of all, Mr. Budinger, let me correct you. My surname is Chi. Although this surname is relatively rare in China, and I am indeed a foodie, you can't just change it to Chi." Mr. Chi, do you understand? In addition, let’s talk about the issue of duck profit. Duck profit, to put it bluntly, is duck tongue.”
Brother Tintin's eyes suddenly widened.
"Duck tongue? Oh, God, how can a duck tongue make a profit from a duck?"
At this time, Alasuo also came over. Hearing Chi Tianxia say that the duck profit mentioned in Ye Fei's mouth was the duck tongue, this guy's face was a little twitching, because they didn't eat this stuff at all, as long as it was involved All things like animal offal are thrown away. How can these things be made into delicacies
Alasuo was extremely curious and interrupted and asked: "Mr. Chi, this duck tongue... can this thing be eaten?"
Chi Tianxia laughed and said: "This is a sign that you don't know much about China. There are many things that you don't know. Duck tongue is an excellent food in China. It is rich in all the nutrients needed by the human body." The required minerals and vitamins, and the calories are also a bit high. Why is it called duck profit? Because it is a Zhejiang snack. The name duck profit also started to appear in Wenzhou City, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, because in In Wenzhou dialect, people speak the same language. As you all know, Wenzhou is one of the first cities to open up the Chinese market. The people there are extremely good at business and are called the Jews of the East by people all over the world. There is a saying in doing business that words such as "shed", "throw away" and "abandon" are very taboo, because in China, these words are unlucky for businessmen and represent money going out, and the word "tongue" has the same pronunciation as "she", so Wenzhou In order to avoid this word, people changed the name of duck tongue. Duck tongue is not called duck tongue, but duck makes money, and making money means that money goes in, you know?"
Aratho: “… ..”
Brother Tintin: “….”
Even Kim Joo Hyun and Matsui Baby: "..."
Several people stared at each other for a long time before they all said in unison: "Is this okay?"
Zhang Junwei walked over with a smile and said: "China has experienced thousands of years of history, and there are many magical places. If you want to fully understand China, I suggest that you first learn the Chinese language well, and then you can understand it more easily. China’s human geography, and even China’s food history.”
Alasuo and the others nodded seriously, and then... Then Zhang Junwei and Chi Tianxia were speechless when they saw these guys and started making phone calls on the spot, asking people from the headquarters to quickly find them a Chinese language teacher, preferably a Chinese language teacher. The history teacher looked very worried.
Chi Tianxia and Zhang Junwei couldn't help but laugh and cry. Damn it, you have been here for the past twenty or thirty years, why are you anxious just now
Ye Fei opened the bag and poured out all the duck tongue inside. Only then did everyone see the true appearance of this ingredient. Now many people knew what it was.
"Can duck tongue be eaten too?"
"Emma, I never touched this thing when eating duck before."
"I did the same thing. I told my men to throw away all the duck tongues because they felt unclean."
"This thing is not clean to begin with, and it's troublesome to clean."
"See what Ye Shen does?"
While everyone was talking, Ye Fei picked up a duck tongue from the chopping board and said with a smile: "Duck tongue, I think many friends have also eaten this kind of delicacy. After eating it, it is very elastic and chewy. Duck tongue The tongue is rich in phosphates, which is very helpful to the human nervous system. In addition, as a food, it can also be used to treat mental retardation, malnutrition, chills and other symptoms in the elderly. For women, If it is due to irregular menstruation, eating an appropriate amount of duck tongue will also have a certain improvement effect. It is precisely because people have slowly realized the importance of this ingredient to the human body that the popularity of duck tongue has increased in recent years. The price has been rising all the time. Now it is about 200 to 230 Chinese yuan per kilogram, which can be said to be extremely expensive. Today, our fourth delicacy is to make duck tongue. This is an indispensable ingredient for making duck tongue."
As he spoke, Ye Fei took a bottle from the side. Inside the bottle was more than half a bottle of red liquid, shaking inside.
"Marinate is the most commonly used and very good ingredient for making duck tongue. Today we are going to make a dish of Greedy Cat duck tongue. How to make it? You will be able to see it next."
Ye Fei said, first put the duck tongues in a small basin, then added some refined salt into it, and began to rub it with his hands. After rubbing for about five or six minutes, he added water to the small basin. , washed it, poured out the water, repeated this twice, then placed the water boiler on the stove, added an appropriate amount of cold water, put the washed duck tongue in, and burned it directly.
After the water boiled, four or five minutes later, Ye Fei turned off the heat, took out the duck tongue with a slotted spoon, put it on a plate, and poured out the water in the pot.
Just when pouring the water, everyone discovered that the water was extremely clear when Ye Fei added it, but now it has a milky white appearance, but it is not uniform milky white because there are a lot of things floating in the water. White granular things, it is the existence of these things that changes the water.
Ye Fei said: "If you want to clean the fresh duck tongue, it is best to use salt to remove its fishy smell, and then blanch it in boiling water. You can see now that the water has changed. These things are There is no good in eating the dirt inside the duck tongue."
After pouring out the water in the pot, place the pot on the stove again, add water into it, and start burning it over high heat.
After the water boiled, Ye Fei put the duck tongue in again.
This time, the blanching time was shorter, only two or three minutes. When the time was up, Ye Fei took out the duck tongue again and put it on a plate aside for later use.
I took the green and red peppers from the side, washed them, and cut them into diced peppers. I washed the green onions and cut them into long sections of about five centimeters.
When all was completed, Ye Fei cleaned the wok again, then took the marinade on the side, poured an appropriate amount into it, and then added water into it, so that the ratio of marinade to water was two to five. , then sliced the ginger, cut the dried chilies into chili shreds, and then put them all into the marinade soup together with the star anise and green onions. Finally, added an appropriate amount of white wine to it, then put the duck tongue into the pot again, and covered it. Put the lid on and bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer.
It took Ye Fei about ten minutes, which was two-thirds shorter than usual.
When the time was up, Ye Fei fished out the duck tongue.
Look at the duck tongue at this time. After being colored with the brown-red marinade, it has turned into a brown-red color. It looks particularly attractive, especially when the tip of the tongue and the two slender ties at the back are raised respectively. , the color became almost transparent, like a brown-red crystal strip.
Many people felt their stomachs growling when they saw this scene, but they did not speak and they all persisted.
In fact, Ye Fei was also a little hungry. After all, he hadn't eaten anything all night, and his attention was also highly concentrated. Now that he saw these delicious things, it was strange that his stomach didn't react.
But he knew that he could only enjoy the delicacies after completing the whole duck feast. Eating with his friends was the highest level of enjoyment.
He also suppressed his hunger, put the duck tongues aside, poured out the used marinade in the pot, and placed the pot on the stove again, but this time he did not turn on the fire, but poured it directly into it. Pour in the best peanut oil and use the remaining temperature of the pot to warm the oil first. Taking advantage of this time, Ye Fei Fei put an appropriate amount of peppercorns into the oil. After the oil completely soaked the peppercorns, he added an appropriate amount of peppercorns to the pot. Sweet sauce.
Sweet sauce is a seasoning that uses flour as the main ingredient. It is made into koji and fermented to form a seasoning with a sauce and fat aroma. In fact, Ye Fei originally wanted to make this kind of thing himself, but he thought about it for a while. , I felt it was a bit insufficient, and I guess all these people would go crazy with hunger if I kept putting in more effort, so I purchased it directly from the system.
After the sweet sauce is put into the pot, stir-fry it together with the Sichuan peppercorns until the aroma is released. Then add the diced green and red peppers into the pot and continue to stir-fry until the mixed aroma of the sweet sauce, Sichuan peppercorns and diced green and red peppers emerges from the pot. , Ye Feicai poured the duck tongue into the pot again and stir-fried.
In fact, the purpose of stir-frying this time is to allow the duck tongue to be evenly coated with the sweet sauce. Just stir-fry evenly.
In less than a minute, Ye Fei took three large plates from the side, then picked up the pot, took a large spoon from the side, and put all the duck tongue in the pot into the three plates in a few clicks. .
On a white plate, the attractive brown-red duck tongue is neatly placed in the center of the plate. Finally, Ye Fei sprinkles a little cumin powder on it, making the whole plate of duck tongue exude a more complex and wonderful flavor. aroma.
"Duan!" Ye Fei said without raising his head.
Shi BaTian and Bald Qiang had been waiting aside for a long time, and they hurried over. Shi BaTian brought two plates, Bald Qiang took one, and carefully sent them outside.
Chi Tianxia's eyes followed the plate containing duck tongue that was brought out, and he suddenly laughed.
Zhang Junwei was beside him and asked in confusion: "Brother Tianxia, what's wrong?"
Chi Tianxia sighed: "The all-duck banquet is just like what Ye Shen said just now, there are all ducks, not all ducks. Ye Shen did this very well, and Mr. Zhang, haven't you discovered it yet? Ye Shen Although he is making a whole duck feast for us, the whole duck feast he made is different from the one in Quanju Pavilion. The whole duck feast in Quanju Pavilion mainly uses the flavor of Shandong cuisine, and the one that Ye Shen made today is Although there are only four delicacies in the whole duck feast so far, they are from three cuisines. The salted duck and Zao Liu Sanbai are Shandong cuisine, the braised duck with sand tea and chestnuts is Fujian cuisine, and the Greedy Cat Duck Tongue is from Zhejiang Province. Dishes, it seems that Ye Shen is going to use this banquet to cook all the eight major cuisines for us today."
Zhang Junwei nodded with a serious face and said: "Ye Shen... really paid attention."
