"You know how to make this dish?"

Li Jing asked.

"Please give me some advice!"

The chef saluted with his hands.

Li Jing nodded. The chef was not arrogant and would not do anything he didn't know.

"Pick the potatoes first and peel them and shred them!"

Li Jing handed the potatoes to the chef and handed them to the chef the first step to deal with the potatoes.

The chef took the potatoes and, as Li Jing said, peeled them personally, then cut them into one side, and then faced the plane down to play a stable role.

Then cut into thin slices, flatten the potato slices, cut them into even thin strips, and the surface of the potato cut with a knife is smooth, which tastes different from the texture of the wiped silk. After cutting, wait for Li Jing's next instructions.

This is the first time I have made this dish in my cooking career, and under the guidance of the Regent, who doesn't know how to cook, the chef even suspects that this dish can be delicious?

As a chef, he did not dare to disobey his master's words, so he could only bite the bullet and follow Li Jing's instructions.

"The next thing is to put shredded potatoes in cold water to wash."

Li Jing continued to instruct the chef to soak the cut potato shreds in clean water, wash away the excess starch on the surface of the potatoes, prevent oxidation and discoloration, and keep it white and tender when stir-frying.

Then ask the chef to cut some scallions, flatten the garlic and chop it into minced, cut the ginger into minced, and cut the scallions into sections, etc.

The chefs followed Li Jing's instructions one by one and prepared the ingredients one by one, and then started cooking.

Afterwards, Li Jing asked the chef to cook the pot. Without the iron pot, he could only use a casserole as a wok.

Li Jing directed the chef and asked the chef to heat up the oil in the casserole, and the chef looked embarrassed.

There is no oil in the kitchen. When cooking meat and vegetables, the fat of the meat and vegetables will float on the soup noodles, so there is no need to add oil. As for cooking vegetarian dishes, you won’t add oil. After cooking, it will be placed directly on the plate and poured on.

Stir the soy sauce and it's done!

This is the first time that the chefs have to cook with oil. Isn’t this an unnecessary move?

"Why haven't you done it yet? Do you want me to do it yourself?"

Li Jing frowned.

"Return to the Regent, there was no oil in the kitchen, so..."

After the chef explained, Li Jing realized that no wonder the food in the Tang Dynasty has always been bland and tasteless.

"Will you not use fat meat to refine oil without oil?"

Li Jing asked, such a simple thing needs to be said, it’s not that it’s impossible to refine oil.

Wouldn't you do it now without preparation? It's not that you don't have materials, just refining oil directly!

"yes!"

The chef did not dare to neglect and immediately directed the other chefs to refine oil with mutton. The chef immediately took the initiative and wanted to pick the fat meat from the mutton off and boil the oil.

"Slowly, why don't you use pork to boil oil?"

Li Jing said in confusion.

"Regent, this pork is a cheap meat and tastes bad. If you use this oil, it will probably affect the taste of the dish!"

The chef said that the main pork is a cheap meat in the eyes of the nobles. Eating pork will damage their status as a noble, which makes the pork unbearable. The nobles all think that eating mutton can show their identity.

In fact, the fat and beautiful Tang Dynasty did not eat pork mainly to prevent the three highs. There is too much fat in pork, and eating too much will easily cause the three highs. People in the Tang Dynasty already had the awareness of preventing the three highs.

In the epitaph of a dead friend, Du Mu tactfully mentioned the cause of his friend's death, and mentioned that pork can block blood, weaken muscles and bones, strengthen the wind, and those who are addicted to it will be ill.

This "disease wind" actually refers to hypertension. In this case, the people of the Tang Dynasty will naturally hate pork!

In fact, the swept pig, that is, the castrated pig, can improve the quality of meat and promote the growth of the pig herd.

Without that thing, you no longer need to accumulate energy for reproduction. The nutrients you eat are used to gain weight. The pigs will grow bigger and the meat will become more delicious!

"It's okay, this delicacy must be fried with lard to make it delicious. The dish without lard is soulless!"

Li Jing waved his hand, without explaining too much, and asked the chef to use pork to boil oil.

"What are you still standing there? Why don't you do as the Regent ordered!"

The chef had no choice but to let his chef change the pork.

The chef immediately changed the mutton to pork, cut off the fat meat on the pork, cut it into pieces and put it in a casserole to boil the oil.

Soon, a pot of pork was boiled out. The chef instructed the chef to bring the clay pot, fill the oil in the casserole, and leave a little in the casserole.

Then he asked Li Jing what to do next.

"Boil water in the pot, drain the shredded potatoes, and then put them in shredded potatoes and blanch them for about ten seconds. The shredded potatoes taste crispy after blanching, and they don't stick to each other when stir-frying."

Under Li Jing's command, a chef brought a new casserole, washed it and started to heat it up, added some cold water to the pot, drained the shredded potatoes and put it in the pot to blanch it.

After blanching for more than ten seconds, pour out the shredded potatoes to control the water, then rinse them with cold water several times to keep the potatoes crispy. Next, heat the oil pan that has just been boiled.

Put the peppercorns, cut garlic, ginger, and green onion slices into the pot and stir-fry them. Then put the shredded potatoes into the pot, add salt, and stir-fry quickly over high heat for more than ten seconds.

Then add more aged vinegar along the edge of the pot, and finally add the vinegar to a thicker taste. Stir it for a few more times, then put it on the pan and put it on the plate. A refreshing and appetizing spicy and sour potato shreds were finally completed under the command of Li Jing.

"Go and serve the rice for me!"

Li Jing said.

The chef immediately took the bowl, served a bowl of fragrant rice for Li Jing, and turned around and handed it to Li Jing.

Li Jing took the rice, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the spicy and sour potato shreds, and started eating.

The taste is good, but it is a bit worse than the one stir-fried in iron pan. Overall, it is still good.

It seems that it takes a few iron pots to make, and it will be convenient to have to cook in the future. Iron pots are more used to cook than casseroles.

Also, I don’t know when the achievement will be triggered again. I hope that chili will be produced next time. With chili, many dishes that require chili can be made.

"Not bad! Not bad! You guys try it too, remember this taste, and you will do this when I want to eat it in the future!"

Li Jing asked everyone to eat together.

"Thank you the Regent's reward!"

Everyone hurriedly thanked him, then took a bowl of rice and imitated Li Jing to put shredded potatoes into rice.

Everyone ate a bite of spicy and sour potato shreds and was instantly conquered by this delicacy. The shreds of potatoes were sour and sour, and very refreshing. They had never eaten such delicious food.

While eating, the chef recalled the steps of making hot and sour potato shreds just now, then took a small notebook and wrote down the cooking process on the small notebook. When you have time, you can think about it slowly so that you won’t forget it.
Chapter completed!
