Chapter 43 A question worth 40,000
Pork bean curd is troublesome to make, but it sells quickly.
After a while, the soup bucket full of bean sprouts was sold out, and not much was left.
And every diner who bought the meatballs had a happy smile on their face after tasting it.
"It's so tender! Even tenderer than real tofu pudding."
"It tastes so good! It turns out that Yang Shaoyue's expression when eating beef noodles is not exaggerated at all!"
"Oh my god! The meat and potatoes are so delicious, how delicious will the emperor's fried rice and pure beef noodles be?"
“I really want to have another bowl, but my wallet doesn’t allow it!”
"It's amazing that you can make such tender tofu curds using meat. How did you come up with this?"
"The taste is amazing, like cotton candy. It really feels like taking a sip of white clouds."
"Eh? Could this be the earliest molecular cuisine?"
Listening to the admiration from all around, Gao Wenlin tasted the chickpea pudding in the bowl in a hurry, but he oversaw it.
He reluctantly drank the last bit of broth into his mouth, and then returned the bowl to Li Yi.
But he did not leave. Instead, he took out his mobile phone, found Li Yi's live broadcast room, and directly clicked ten super rockets.
Noticing the special effects of the gift, Li Yi turned to his phone and thanked him: "Thank you True Detective Gawain...eh?"
He recognized the avatar of the gift-giving account, it was Gao Wenlin in front of him.
Gao Wenlin smiled and hugged him: "Boss, I admire your craftsmanship. I have nothing to express. I can only do it this way. It's disrespectful. Don't be offended."
When Li Yi heard what he said, he guessed what he meant, and then he smiled and said, "Mr. Gao, if you have anything to say, just say it! They are all delicious people, so there is no need to show off."
Gao Wenlin opened the way with courtesy, obviously he wanted to ask for something.
They were strangers to each other, so if Gao Wenlin wanted something from him, it was naturally his craftsmanship.
When it comes to craftsmanship, only a person who is good at one trick is afraid of spreading it to others, because he knows that trick and if someone learns it from him, he will no longer be able to use it and will be dumbfounded.
But real craftsmen are not afraid of spreading their craftsmanship to others.
Because there are many crafts, even if I tell you clearly, let you stand by and watch, or even teach you step by step, you may not be able to learn them.
Just like this sweet bean curd, even if Li Yi makes the method public, no one may be able to completely replicate it.
There are many doorways here!
Gao Wenlin used etiquette to clear the way, which was considered as a courtesy.
Since he wanted something for himself, Li Yi couldn't reach out and hit the smiling man, so he let him speak directly.
Seeing Li Yi speak, Gao Wenlin thanked him and then asked seriously: "Boss, I have a question.
When I tried to reproduce it before, I used a breaker to beat the chicken sprouts into a puree, and also sifted it through a 60-mesh basket. But why did the texture come out still a bit rough? It's not as good as yours.
Where is slippery?”
Li Yi heard this and joked with a smile: "You are quite lazy."
"I can't help it. It's too tiring to chop with a knife."
Gao Wenlin chuckled and explained: "We are in modern society now, so there is nothing wrong with using some high-tech equipment."
"you are wrong."
Li Yi shook his head: "High-tech equipment can indeed save a lot of trouble, but if you want to pursue perfection, machines can never replace manpower."
As he said that, he paused and asked, "When you used the wall breaker to mince the meat, did you add ice cubes?"
"add."
Gao Wenlin nodded: "I know that the wall-breaking machine will generate heat when rotating at high speed and denature the protein, so ice cubes must be added to lower the temperature."
"That's right."
Li Yi explained: "But adding ice cubes cannot completely prevent this situation, and the crushed ice cubes are ice crystals, which will also damage the quality of the meat. It is equivalent to slightly freezing the meat and making it less fresh."
"Ah? Is there such a thing?"
Gao Wenlin was a little surprised, but after thinking for a moment, he understood: "Yes, the ice crystals are very sharp and will pierce cells, and the elasticity of fresh meat will definitely be reduced."
"still have a question."
Li Yi continued: "If you use a basket to sift the meat paste, you can indeed remove most of the fascia tissue, but the speed of the wall-breaking machine is too high, and some fascia tissue will still be twisted into fine particles, which will pass through the basket.
sieve holes and mix into the minced meat.
When the chickpea flowers are slowly cooked in the pot, the fascia tissue shrinks and forms countless tiny particles, which makes the taste a bit gritty and not as tender as pure minced meat.
This is also the benefit of purely hand-chopped meat paste. During the chopping process, you can remove the fascia bit by bit, leaving only the purest meat paste. This is the most authentic method."
"So that's it, I've learned a lesson."
Gao Wenlin suddenly realized when he heard this: "No wonder the food I made tastes gritty. It turns out it's because it's not hand-chopped."
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense, and he couldn't help but admire: "Boss, you are really amazing. You said on the show that all your dishes are made by yourself. Is this the same with the meatballs?"
"That's right."
Li Yi nodded calmly.
"ox."
Gao Wenlin gave a thumbs up and sincerely praised: "I have reproduced it myself. I know how difficult it is. You can reproduce it so perfectly. God knows how much hard work you have put in. I admire you!"
Li Yi smiled and did not explain.
Only he himself knows how much hard work he put in.
That’s twenty-four years!
"still have a question."
Gao Wenlin asked again: "The chickpea flower I reproduced has a slight bitterness, which is very weak and difficult to taste, but it is indeed there.
When I taste the food you made, there is no astringency or bitterness at all, and there is still a mellow aroma of meat and oil, why is this?"
Li Yi knew what the problem was as soon as he heard it, but he didn't explain it. Instead, he smiled and joked: "This is the second problem!"
Gao Wenlin slapped his forehead, took out his mobile phone, and without saying a word, twenty more super rockets were delivered.
When Li Yi saw this, he smiled and said casually: "Put a piece of pig skin on the chopping board and chop it."
"Ah? Ah!"
Gao Wenlin said ah twice.
The first sound was surprise, the latter sound was sudden realization.
Don't use a chopping board. He immediately remembered that when he was chopping the meat, he had indeed chopped it on the chopping board.
And after being reminded by Li Yi, he immediately realized that the slight bitter smell seemed to be the smell of chopping board wood!
But if you don’t chop the minced meat on the chopping board, where can you put it?
Should I put it on the millstone?
But the method Li Yi mentioned dispelled his myth immediately and solved the problem perfectly!
yes!
Placing a piece of pig skin on it not only isolates the chopping board and prevents the bitter smell of wood from being tainted, but also blends the aroma of meat oil into the meat paste.
Wonderful!
How wonderful!
"I go!"
He couldn't help but uttered a curse word, and then asked with some excitement: "How did you come up with the idea? That's awesome!"
Li Yi smiled, lowered his voice, and joked: "This is a secret, don't tell anyone else!"
"Don't worry! It will never be spread to outsiders!"
Gao Wenlin nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "This problem cost me 40,000 yuan, and I won't tell others in vain!"
"Is it worth it?"
Li Yi looked at him and asked with a smile.
"It's worth it! It's worth it!"
Gao Wenlin smacked his palms and sighed: "If you didn't tell me this trick, I probably wouldn't be able to come up with such a simple and effective way in my whole life! This money is well spent!"
