Chapter 372 Octopus Noodles
Then, Tang Ming took out the ingredients such as ginger, green onion, garlic, light soy sauce, wine and other ingredients and started marinating them to remove the fishy smell.
This is a very critical process, which not only requires the right amount of ingredients, but also has an important relationship with the length of time.
The time is too short and the fishy smell is not clean, which affects the taste.
If it takes too long, it will cover up the original meaty smell of the octopus and lack umami flavor.
If it is a whole octopus, it will naturally take longer.
But the octopus has been cut into noodles, which is very easy to remove the flavor, so it only takes a few minutes to achieve the optimal marination time.
Taking advantage of this skill, Tang Ming cut again.
As the sound of the ding-bell continued to sound, Shu Yiting and others who heard the sound came around unconsciously.
The stuff stuffed in his ears was taken off when Shu Yiting and others just returned to the house.
Although I had already eaten the kebab when I came back.
But food is never used as a meal.
Especially, what Tang Ming was going to do this time was an unprecedented big octopus.
An expert looks at the tricks, while an outsider just watches the fun.
Seeing that Tang Ming had cut the octopus into noodles, Shu Yiting couldn't help but wonder, was Tang Ming wanting to have an octopus noodles?
As for whether there are octopus noodles outside, Shu Yiting never thought about it.
The things Tang Ming has never made are unpalatable.
However, Tang Ming, who had his ears stuffed, had no time to pay attention to what Shu Yiting and others were thinking.
After cutting more than a dozen pieces of flesh, Tang Ming took the pickled octopus strips.
Wash the remaining condiments on the octopus strips with clean water and soak them in cold water for later use.
After Tang Ming marinated the newly cut octopus strips, the pot of water brought to a boil.
After lifting the lid, Tang Ming added a little water to the pot and cooled down the original hot pot water until it was just bubbled.
Then the next octopus strips were next.
The same principle as the following.
Although the following is simple, it is actually very skillful. You can't just cook it in. You need to pick noodles, and boil the noodles evenly in water to make it heat all over.
Tang Ming gently used his long chopsticks to thrust the octopus strips and flipped them into the pot.
A piece of octopus foot skin can be cut into about 100 strips about 6 meters long.
After Tang Ming was about halfway through cooking, the pot was full.
This is still the big iron pot used by Tang Ming, otherwise, you can cook at most three or five small stainless steel pots seized.
The good thing is that octopus strips are different from noodles. The noodles will have a lot of foam, because the dry flour pasted on the noodles will react when exposed to hot water.
But the octopus strips don't, the soup in the pot is very clear.
After covering the pot cover, Tang Ming began to organize the ingredients.
Onion and a little minced garlic, a little bit of chopped sesame seeds, and a little bit of air-dried chili segments.
After getting ready, add a little water to the pot so that the water in the pot will not be too rolled.
Cover the pot and cook the inside, and cook the outside.
If you do not cover the lid for cooking noodles, it will take a little longer, because there is not enough time and you will become uncooked.
But because of the long cooking time, the surface of the surface will become viscous and piled up together.
Therefore, many people like to soak noodles in cold water, which will make them less sticky.
In fact, as long as you control the time to cover the pot, cook the inside as soon as possible, then uncover the lid of the pot and cook the noodles, and do not stop stirring and turning evenly with chopsticks. There is no need to soak it in cold water at all, and it can be non-stick.
After estimating the time, Tang Ming took off the lid, added some cold water again, and began to flip the surface of the boiled octopus strips.
I keep adding water, in fact, to control the temperature of the water.
Continuous heating will make the noodles cook and eventually become very sticky, and taste like they are soaked in water.
In fact, it is because the water temperature is too hot, the boiling bubbles are too many, and it is immersed in the surface.
After adding water to the flip twice, the octopus strips were thoroughly cooked.
The water in the pot is clear, and every octopus strip is crystal clear.
In itself, the telescope octopus is almost transparent in color, and even if there are some patterns or the like, it is not very clear.
Now after peeling, the effect is even more so, it looks similar to crystal powder.
After taking the pot, Tang Ming took out the wooden bowl and started fishing out the octopus strips.
Because the length of the octopus strips is very long, you only need to hold one in each bowl of noodles, and it looks very full.
Authentic bowl of noodles.
After putting ingredients such as green onions, garlic and other ingredients into the bowl, Tang Ming sprinkled salt, soy sauce and other seasonings to color and taste, and added a spoonful of water to the bowl.
After stirring it slightly with chopsticks, a bowl of octopus noodle soup is initially made.
What is lacking in comparison with homemade noodles is just an egg.
But Tang Ming had no intention of beating eggs at all.
Instead, he directly called Shu Yiting and others to start eating.
Shu Yiting brought this bowl with Tang Ming.
The wooden bowl is not small, with only one octopus strip but full. The most important thing is that the soup is clear and the soy sauce is not ordered. In addition, the transparency of the octopus strips, if you don’t look carefully, you can only see the green green onions and the octopus strips in the bowl.
It was like I thought a bowl of water, but in fact the soup was just a spoonful, and the bowl was full of octopus strips.
Not gorgeous, but appetizing.
Shu Yiting took the wooden bowl and took the lead in trying it out.
The almost transparent octopus strips are elastic and tender, with the illusion that they are full of water after biting the skin. The seasonings are just right, and the fishy smell has been removed. The onion and garlic are fragrant and fine sesame seeds are not worse than the grind sesame oil when brewed in hot water.
The last bit of dried peppers is slightly spicy, and the hot soup makes people feel more appetizing.
Of course, the most important thing is the ingredients.
The noodles made in this bowl of octopus just look like noodle soup, but in fact the meat is meat.
Because Tang Ming kept the original flavor of the octopus while removing the fishy smell, his unique fresh fragrance is the characteristic of this bowl of octopus noodles.
Is this too delicious?
Shu Yiting felt incredible.
I never expected that it would be a very simple bowl of noodles that could taste this kind of taste that was indescribable but wanted to eat the more I ate it.
Lao Tie and others also served the noodles at this time.
There are about fifty octopus strips in the pot, which can hold fifty bowls.
Originally, Lao Tie and the others thought Tang Ming had done a little too much, after all, it was just a piece of octopus skin.
Today, there are at least a hundred pieces of skin cut by Tang Ming.
But at this moment, when the two old men stuffed the octopus strips into their mouths, they were instantly shocked by this delicacy.
Where is this a bowl of noodles?
If it tastes like this, even if they take ten roast chickens, they will choose to eat octopus strips without hesitation!
The two old men swallowed the food, and they finished it first than Shu Yiting, without even a bite of the soup.
At this moment, Tang Ming also served a bowl of octopus strips.
However, Tang Ming did not bring it to eat first, but cooked half a pot of water in a small pot.
At the same time, Tang Ming called out the Great Sage and others to ask them to eat octopus strips too.
Tang Ming, on the other hand, held the octopus strips and placed them on a smooth large bluestone.
The system's mission is legendary food.
Even if the octopus strips are delicious, they are far from qualified.
