Dare to cook

Chapter 21 Herring Bald Lungs
Tang Deren's personal cookbook is thick and heavy.

Yao Yu flipped through the cookbook and took a quick look. It is estimated that there are at least [-] dishes recorded on it.

He flipped through it quickly and found the method about the herring's bald lungs.

Heh, good guy.

Tang Deren actually knew three ways to cook herring with bald lungs.

No wonder he is particularly good at this dish.

Yao Yu thought to himself and began to read carefully.

At this time, Tang Ying also brought a glass of water and put it on the coffee table beside Yao Yu.

She didn't bother him, but quietly looked at Yao Yu who was studying the recipe.

You sit on the sofa and read the cookbook,
The person who gave you the recipe is looking at you.

The way it cooks catches your eye,
Your eyes decorate other people's dreams.

Tang Ying looked at the focused Yao Shuaibi, and suddenly these two nondescript words popped into her mind.

I don't know if the old Mr. Bian who wrote "Broken Chapter" will know whether he can laugh or cry.

The popular practice of herring with bald lungs is very simple.

The first step is to take the two leaves of the herring liver, not the middle one.

The herring must be killed fresh, and the liver of herring more than half an hour after death cannot be used, otherwise it will easily cause cod liver poisoning!

Then, tear off the black threads on both sides of the cod liver.

After the cod liver is cleaned, put it into the pan with hot oil, stir-fry the onion, ginger and garlic, and then fry it in oil.

Then, pour rice wine, ginger, soy sauce, sugar, rice vinegar, clear soup and cook over high heat.

After cooking, reduce the juice on high heat, add green garlic, monosodium glutamate, and water starch and stir fry for a while, then it can be out of the pot.

The above are the practices in ordinary small restaurants.

If you meet a more particular chef, you may marinate the fish liver before frying it.

However, the herring bald lungs fried by this method must not taste good.

In contrast.

The cooking methods recorded in Tang Deren's cookbook are much more detailed and reliable.

First of all, it is said in the cookbook.

After the live herring liver is washed, marinate it with rice wine and sake for 10 minutes.

Then use clear water in the pot, add the flattened ginger and salt and boil.

After the water boils, put the cod liver in, add white vinegar and cook for 2 minutes.Then fish out the cod liver and soak it in cold water for a few seconds.

The next step is to cook the pan with lard, put the onion and ginger until fragrant.

——Attention, it is to put onion and ginger, not garlic.

After sautéing, put the cod liver in and fry until both sides are slightly browned.

Then, add appropriate amount of rice wine, soy sauce, sugar, clear soup and chopped bamboo shoots and simmer.

Simmer for 3 minutes, turn to low heat to collect the juice, pour in green garlic sprouts, water starch, sesame oil, and chicken stock, stir fry, and serve.

These are one of the three ways to make herring with bald lungs in Tang Deren's cookbook.

Compared with the popular method, the key to Tang Deren's method is to marinate first, then boil it, and then cool it with clean water.

After going through these three steps, the fishy smell on the cod liver will definitely be completely eliminated.

The fresh and tender taste of cod liver will also be preserved to the greatest extent because of the supercooling of water.

Yao Yu read all three methods carefully, and he was [-]% sure in his heart.

That's what cooking is all about.

Difficult to say, easy to say.

The key is not to work behind closed doors.

Many dishes are much easier to make as long as you master the know-how.

"How is it? Can you make this dish?" Tang Ying asked when Yao Yu put down the cookbook.

Yao Yu said:
"It's not a big problem. Can I take a picture of the contents of these two pages? When I go back to the restaurant to try it out, I need to refer to it."

Tang Ying said bluntly, "No problem, just go ahead and shoot."

The herring's bald lungs were photographed with a mobile phone, and Yao Yu and Tang Ying left together.

……

Back at the dining room, Chen Li was brushing Wanghai Tower.

Seeing Yao Yu coming in, Chen Li smiled and said:

"Brother Yu, guess what your odds of winning the championship are online?"

As soon as Yao Yu heard it, he knew that a banker had opened the market on Wanghai Tower.

Just like betting on the World Cup.

Since the influence of the celebrity chef selection competition has grown, some people have also started to sit on the Internet to attract people to bet.

When the famous contest was held last time, many powerful famous chefs were not involved.

Yao Yu did not sign up for the competition at the time.

Because, the celebrity chef selection competition was originally prepared for those chefs who are not yet famous or not famous.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a celebrity chef competition.

But this year is different.

In order to spread the influence of the famous selection competition to the whole Asia, the Culinary Association invited contestants from many countries to participate.

As a result, too many foreign chefs were invited, and the Kitchen Association was worried that the country's grassroots chefs would not be able to compete with others, so it simply dragged down the masters on the Jade Food List.

After such a coquettish operation, the momentum of this famous contest will be expanded to what it is now.

It is precisely for this reason that this year's dealers are particularly active.

Today is only the first day of the audition, and someone has listed more than 20 favorites to win the championship.

Among the more than 20 popular candidates for the championship, half are masters from their own countries, three are chefs from Southeast Asia, and five are famous chefs from Reben.

As for the contestants sent by Bang Zi and Ah San, they were directly ignored.

Yao Yu logged into the Wanghai Building and clicked on the post to see it.

He found that his odds of winning the championship were 1:3.3, and his odds of winning the runner-up were 1:2.

Lu Chenyu's odds of winning the championship are 1:1.5, and the odds of winning the runner-up are 1:3.6.

In addition, there are some strong contenders for the third place and candidates for the top four and top eight contenders, which are also available for betting.

Chen Li gloated a little:

"Brother Yu, your odds of winning the championship are more than double that of Lu Chenyu. It seems that no one thinks you are Lu Chenyu's opponent."

Yao Yu acted as if nothing had happened:

"Hmph, those are people without vision."

Saying that, this guy quickly bet [-] on himself to win the championship, and also bet another [-] on Lu Chenyu to be the runner-up.

Chen Li saw Yao Yu playing so well, he clicked his tongue and said, "Aren't you afraid of losing everything?"

Yao Yu squinted at Chen Li: "Why, you also think I will lose?"

Chen Li shrank his neck, let out a haha ​​and said:

"How come, I also bet two thousand hard-earned money to bet you to win."

"Well, I can testify to this point. He also bet [-] on Lu Chenyu's victory." Liu Yiran appeared out of nowhere, smiling and tearing things apart.

what? !
"Chen Li, you traitor, come here, I promise I won't fuck you!"

Yao Yu's face darkened.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Li hurriedly ran away.

However, Yao Yu's speed was faster.

After being chased and intercepted, Yao Yu caught up with Chen Li and beat him violently. He felt refreshed and refreshed.

Liu Yiran and a few waitress sisters witnessed the whole process, and they were amused, and the air was filled with joyful atmosphere.

At this time, Yao Yu realized that he still had business to do, and immediately walked into the back kitchen.

In the back kitchen, there are not many herrings prepared.

There are only twenty fish that can be used to make herring bald lungs.

Yao Yu made some calculations and decided to save money and make two sets.

There is another critical step in making herring bald lungs.

It means not breaking the gall of the fish when disemboweling the fish.

Otherwise, the bile flows out and sticks to the cod liver, even if the cod liver is boiled, the bitterness may not be removed.

Yao Yu took out twenty fish livers, and followed the two different methods recorded in Tang Deren's cookbook, and began to fry herring with bald lungs.

After more than ten minutes, two plates of herring with bald lungs came out of the pot.

Yao Yu said to Chen Li and the others in the back kitchen: "Come and taste it, how about my herring with bald lungs?"
