God of Cookery Live Room

Chapter 123

Chen Er was very happy, "Let's just cook one dish today!"

Dou Yitong brought a plate of mutton.

Chen Er glanced at it and said, "After washing it, soak it in crushed ice and water for 5 minutes."

Then go fiddle with other stuff yourself.

Chen Er took out a packet of salt, poured it all into the tamper, and then poured in half a packet of white sugar.

Mash carefully with a pounder.

Dou Yitong ran over after soaking the mutton.

Chen Er asked him to bring a pot of water.

Then put the tamper into a thick glass basin.

"You slowly pour water in."

Dou Yitong pointed the spout of the pot at the tamper, and slowly poured water.

Chen Er kept moving his hands.

The crushed salt and sugar mixed with the water gradually gushed out and dripped into the thick glass basin.

Chen Er explained, "The most important part of the gourd leaf soup that the anchor is making now is to highlight the smell of the gourd leaves. But the taste of the gourd leaves is a bit bitter. If you don't pay attention to the balance of the taste, it is easy to overwhelm the whole dish." They all turned bitter and tasted bad."

"So, we need to work harder on condiments."

"But the biggest advantage of gourd leaf soup is its delicious taste, so we can't put too many seasonings to steal its limelight, so we can only put salt."

Seeing that all the salt and white sugar in the pounder had been pounded, Chen Er signaled for Dou Yitong to open the kettle.

Chen Er took the tamper out of the thick glass basin.

The camera zoomed in, and the fans saw a pale white transparent liquid in the glass basin, with fine white sand shaking faintly underneath.

Chen Er signaled Dou Yitong to come and see.

"Mash white sugar and fine salt together and mix them in water, and then use this water to cook soup, the flavor will be better."

The fans nodded in understanding.

Then someone asked, "So, what the hell is a gourd leaf?"

Dou Yitong also quickly raised his head to look at Chen Er.

Chen Er grabbed the small bamboo basket on the ground and put it on the table.

Pick up a piece of green, fresh and tender egg-shaped heart-shaped small leaves from the inside.

"Hey, this is the gourd leaf."

Everyone outside the screen stared at the leaf in Chen Er's hand with wide eyes.

It seems a bit familiar, but I can't quite remember what kind of plant the leaves are.

Dou Yitong also carefully approached and looked at it for a while.

Then there was a sudden slap on the thigh.

"Master! Gourd Baby!"

Chen Er shifted his gaze to him.

He quickly waved his hand again, "No, it's the leaves on the gourd doll's head, these are the leaves of the gourd melon!!!"

Chen Er smiled and nodded.

Dou Yitong also laughed, and then took the leaf in Chen Er's hand that was not as big as his palm.

"This one is so small that I didn't recognize it for a while."

And everyone had already burst into laughter in the barrage.

"Hahaha, I burst out laughing! I almost thought Chen Laoshi's little apprentice saw the gourd baby!!"

"Little apprentice: Master Hu! Look! There is a gourd baby!"

"Chen Laoshi twitched his beard and smiled: Is the gourd baby steamed or braised?"

Chen Er cleared his throat, and handed a bamboo basket of gourd leaves to Dou Yitong, asking him to wash the basket and bring it out.

"Be careful, these leaves have just grown and are still tender, don't touch them."

Dou Yitong nodded in agreement.

Chen Er took out a purple casserole pot specially used for stewing soup, put it on the stove, filled it with fresh stream water, picked a few gourd leaves washed by Dou Yitong, put them into the pot, and covered it. Bring to a boil first.

"Before cooking the gourd leaf soup, let's use the leaves to smell the pot."

After finishing these, Chen Er went to pick up the soaked mutton, put it on the cutting board, quickly dropped the knife, and cut it into small pieces.

"During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, steamed vegetables and stewed vegetables were the mainstream. And this soup is a daily food."

"Just like in the families of our modern society, scrambled eggs with tomatoes is a mainstream home-cooked dish. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, all kinds of soups were their mainstream home-cooked dishes."

Chen Er said while cutting the mutton, "The gourd leaf soup that the anchor is going to make today is one of the representative delicacies in the meat soup during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties."

After the lamb is cut, spread it out neatly on a cutting board.

With the blade in Chen Er's hand, he slashed across the chopping board, scooped up all the mutton, and put it into a bowl.

Dou Yitong also cleaned all the gourd leaves.

Chen Er took out a handful of green onions as thick as two fingers, washed them, chopped them all up, and put them in a bowl.

Then I washed my hands, came to the stove, took down the purple casserole, and lifted the lid.

A faint bitter breath floated out.

Dou Yitong moved his nose behind him.

I heard Chen Er talking, "The smell of gourd leaves is fresh and slightly bitter. It is different from the smell of other ingredients and has no fragrance."

After pouring out all the water and gourd leaves in the purple casserole, the whole purple casserole was contaminated with the faint bitterness of the gourd leaves.

Chen Er didn't wash the pot, and directly put on the stove again, and put in gourd leaves, mutton, diced green onion, and gourd leaves in sequence.Then inject the water mixed with fine salt and white sugar.

Cover and bring to a simmer.

"There is no need to chop the gourd leaves, just put them in and stew them."

"Because the gourd leaves are all fresh young leaves, after a long time of cooking, they will be boiled and smashed by themselves. This is also a sign that the gourd leaf soup is cooked well."

"Generally speaking, cooking for an hour and a half is enough."

As soon as Chen Er finished speaking, the bell at the door rang.

Thinking about it with my toes, I knew it must be Jin Changsong's reminder.

Chen Er said, "Tell him not to worry, I will give him a small opening gift."

Before Shen Yinian entered the kitchen, after hearing this, he turned around and went to the dining room.

Chen Er took out a small green gourd the size of a palm from the bamboo basket where the gourd leaves had just been placed.

Grab a knife and start carving.

Because Chen Er cut the knife very quickly and the edge was thin, Dou Yitong looked at it for a long time but didn't understand what it was.

Chen Er quickly finished the sculpture.

Put the small gourd on a small plate, and put two leaves beside it as a foil.

Chen Er glanced at Dou Yitong, and he hurried to ring the bell on the door.

Shen Yinian hurried over.

Chen Er handed her the plate.

Shen Yinian held the small gourd and placed it in front of Jin Changsong.

Jin Changsong was stunned, "Is this for food too?"

Shen Yinian shook his head to express that he was not clear.

Jin Changsong simply stretched out his chopsticks and caught the little gourd.

He exerted a little force with his fingers, and as soon as he picked up the small gourd, he heard two crisp "click" sounds.

Little Hulu seemed to have been given special effects, and many cracks suddenly appeared on his body.

Jin Changsong was startled, and with a shake of the chopsticks in his hand, a lot of melon flesh fell from the little gourd.

"Damn it, what the hell is this?"

Jin Changsong stared blankly at a lifelike little doll on his chopsticks.

Shen Yinian glanced at it, held back a smile and said, "This is probably, gourd baby..."
