Gourmet conquest starts from the entertainment industry

"Haha, my brother sent it. Have a drink tonight?" Hu Ge said proudly.

"Yo, that brother who is good at cooking? Zhou Mochen? I've heard a lot about him. He's not from the industry, but he's even more popular than us." The man said in surprise.

"Yeah, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I sent some good things. Let's try it together in the evening, with wine and food." Hu Ge nodded and admitted.

"Hehe, that's a good feeling."

Su Cheng, Zhou Mochen's home, with the joint efforts of the three, a sumptuous lunch was finally ready.

"Master! Dinner is ready." Jiang Yingying shouted outside.

"Understood!" After talking, several people went to the kitchen to help serve the dishes.

"Yingying, it's been a long time since I ate your dishes. This time I feel much improved." Zhao Jinmai said in surprise, tasting the dishes on the table.

"Hee hee, as long as Master likes it." Jiang Yingying replied with a smile.

"Well, it's not bad, shouldn't it be time to upgrade?" Zhou Mochen nodded and asked.

"Well, yes, Master, isn't it time yet? I'm waiting to go to the exam with them. Jinchuan should go too." Jiang Yingying pointed to Guanziqi and Bai Chenghuan and said.

"Okay, you can just think about it yourself." Zhou Mochen respected his apprentice's thoughts.

Bai Chenghuan was also very excited in his heart, he could finally be certified. You can also give your father an explanation.

"What do you want to eat for the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner? I will prepare it in the afternoon." Zhou Mochen asked after thinking about it.

"Husband! I still want to eat the crayfish and skewers you made!" Zhao Jinmai said with a smile on his eyes.

"Okay! How about you? What would Xiaoxiao want to eat?" Zhou Mochen asked softly.

"Xiaoxiao wants to eat shrimp!" Su Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up when he heard the crayfish, looking forward to it.

"Skewers are fine. We've already had a table meal at noon. Let's barbecue in the evening." Jiang Yingying replied with a smile. Others also echoed, as long as it was made by Zhou Mochen, it doesn't matter what they eat.

"Okay, got it, let me think about it, and get ready in the afternoon." Zhou Mochen said after thinking for a while.

This is the end of a cheerful lunch. Zhou Mochen didn't help to clean up the rest. There are apprentices and students who don't need him.

After washing some fruits and making some tea, everyone sat in the living room to rest and chat after cleaning up.

But Zhou Mochen made an excuse to go out and brought back some ingredients. All things to bake at night. After marinating first, Zhou Mochen also chose a special dish, roast suckling pig.

Roast suckling pig is the most famous specialty in Guangzhou, and it is one of the main dishes in the "Man-Han Banquet". As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, this dish was listed as one of the "Eight Treasures", and it was called "Pao Tun" at that time.

Roasting the suckling pig is very troublesome, and there are many processes, such as material selection, sorting, marinating, shaping, scalding, crispy syrup, crispy syrup, roasting, and finished products. So after marinating the other ingredients, Zhou Mochen started directly.

In terms of material selection, Zhou Mochen chose a fragrant pig and slaughtered about 12 catties.

"Husband, do you want to eat this tonight? This pig is so small." Zhao Jinmai saw Zhou Mochen busy in the kitchen, and thought that Zhou Mochen would not be too lonely, so he came to the kitchen to accompany him. Big suckling pig. Can't help but ask.

"Well, yes, eat something different tonight. I also prepared some meat skewers. Why don't you watch TV?" Zhou Mochen said softly.

"I don't want to accompany you. I'll go back to filming tomorrow, so I'll stay with you for a while longer." Zhao Jinmai said coquettishly, and then hugged Zhou Mochen from behind.

"Hey, be careful of splashing on you." Zhou Mochen obviously liked Zhao Jinmai's answer very much.

"Yeah, I'll take pictures and videos for you." Zhao Jinmai went upstairs to get his camera as he said that.

Zhou Mochen shook his head, and began to deal with the suckling pig. Next is tidying up.

Slaughter, bloodletting, depilation, viscera are carried out according to the usual method, and then cleaned. Then, split along the spine from the inside of the buttocks, remove the suet, and remove 3 to 4 ribs and shoulder blades from the front chest. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and drain. Keep the suckling pig complete.

When marinating, it needs to be divided into two parts to marinate.

Wash the suckling pig and put it on the workbench, rub five-spice powder and salt into the pig's abdominal cavity, marinate for about 30 minutes, then add seasoning sauce, fermented bean curd, sesame paste, sugar, minced garlic, minced shallot, minced onion , monosodium glutamate, cornstarch, Fenjiu and five-spice powder, mix thoroughly, apply to the belly of the pig, and marinate for about 30 minutes.

"Husband, what you did was so complicated." Zhao Jinmai, who was shooting the material next to Zhao Jinmai, also had to feel that the procedure was a bit too much.

"Hehe, where are we going?" Zhou Mochen replied with a smile.

Waiting for the suckling pig to be marinated almost. Zhou Mochen began to shape the suckling pig.

Use one piece of wood with a length of 40 cm and two pieces of wood with a length of 13 cm. The long one is used as a straight support and the short one is used as a horizontal support. A support is installed in the abdominal cavity of the pig, and it is tied with iron wire to make the suckling pig shape. Insert 2 steel forks at the front and back for easy baking.

The supported suckling pigs are scalded with hot water at 70°C until the skin is hard, and then the surface moisture is wiped dry.

In order to make the color of the finished product uniform and the skin crispy, the quality requirements for the crispy syrup used are very high. The specific adjustment method is to put maltose in a small basin, pour a little boiling water, and after it is completely dissolved, add white wine and vinegar and mix thoroughly to form a crispy syrup. Maltose must not be used too much when preparing, because it contains sugar, and it is easy to be colored when heated, resulting in blackening of the finished product.

Spread the crispy syrup evenly on the suckling pig skin, hang it in a ventilated place, and dry the skin. The moisture on the surface of the pigskin must be wiped dry before the crispy syrup can be applied and evenly applied. Let it air dry after coating it before baking.

There are two roasting methods. One is to bake in an open oven, use an iron rectangular oven, burn the hearth red, put the forked suckling pig, and roast on the fire. Bake the breast and belly first, about 20 minutes. Then roast the whole body of the pig, especially the neck and waist, and use acupuncture to drain the water. At the same time, it is necessary to brush the oil to wipe off or smooth the fat seeping from the inside and outside of the roast, so as not to flow on the skin or meat and affect the appearance.

The second is to bake in a dark oven, using a general roast duck oven. First heat the furnace to a high temperature, put the suckling pig carcass into the furnace, and bake for about 30 minutes. When the pigskin starts to change color, take it out and prick it with a needle, brush the oozing fat, and bake for another 20-30 minutes.

And Zhou Mochen chose to bake it in a dark oven. The roasted suckling pig, the oil flowing out of the pig body, is clear and whitish.

After taking out the roasted suckling pig, brush a layer of sesame oil on the surface while it is hot.

"Husband, is this roasted? It smells so good." Zhao Jinmai has been accompanying Zhou Mochen in the kitchen, watching the roast suckling pig finished, with stars shining in his eyes, feeling like his saliva is about to flow out.

"Well, it's ready to eat in a while. It's still hot right now. I'll move the grill out. Let Yingying and the others put on skewers!" Zhou Mochen replied with a smile.

"Yeah!" Zhao Jinmai nodded in response, but he couldn't take his eyes off the delicious roast suckling pig.

After reluctantly taking another look, Zhao Jinmai also went out. And more people went to the kitchen to help thread the skewers. The task of grilling skewers was handed over to Jiang Yingying. Zhou Mochen stayed in the kitchen to make crayfish.

And Zhao Jinmai took out his mobile phone and started Weibo. A post titled "On the Importance of Finding a Husband with Unparalleled Cooking Skills." was posted. Many of them were photos of Zhou Mochen making roasted suckling pigs. And the final product.

Although it's already lunch time. But there are always some people squatting on the Internet.

"Is it Zhou Shen's latest work? It looks like a dick. I want to eat it."

"Mai Mai, you are so irritating. I managed to have a big meal, and I suddenly felt bad." Zhang Zifeng, who was having dinner, accidentally saw the Weibo post, and immediately felt unhappy when he clicked on it.

"Wow, that's awesome. Brother Chen, what else is there to eat? It seems that you are going to exceed the calorie limit today." Wu Xiaolei is still filming a show in other places. I am resting right now. I laughed when I saw the post on Weibo.

"God, I'm Mai Xiucai, I'm Mai Xiucai. I'm so envious. Now when I see my boyfriend, I'm so angry. I'm so angry. What should I do if I'm swollen!"

"Mai Mai, you don't call us for the delicious food. It's too annoying. No, let Zhou Mochen save some for us. I'll go and have a meal later. I'll go there when I eat at home." Li Xin also saw Weibo I was salivating at the photos on the website. I couldn't help but look at my own dinner party. After comparing them, I immediately sent a comment.

"Hey, who is this guy? I know Mai very well. Are you friends?"

"That's right, I'm also envious, and I'll go as soon as I say it. I want to do the same."

"No, you don't want to!"

"Yang Zi, it's so embarrassing for you to call Zhou Mochen. You don't call us for delicious food, just go over after eating two bites at home." Li Xin thought about it and called Yang Shao. Looking at the picture, I really can't help it. It is not small, and it must be enough for several people.

"Hey, I was just about to make a call. I saw your comment. Xingzi called me just now. Let's go together in a while, and I will ask Lao Zhou to prepare more food." Yang Shao replied with a smile.

"Okay, I'll tell Qianqian." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, turned around and went to inform Su Qian.

Here Yang Shao also connected to Zhou Mochen's call.

"Huh? How do you know the roast suckling pig I made today?" Zhou Mochen was very surprised when he received Yang Shao's call.

"Hey, of course it's my siblings who posted on Weibo. Haha, prepare to order some food and drinks. We'll be there in a while." Yang Shao laughed happily.

"Say, I got it." Weekend Che said speechlessly, he didn't expect to be exposed by his own wife, what else could he say. Add more wine and a few pairs of chopsticks. Stir-fry more lobsters, but fortunately there is a lot of stewed meat in it, which was originally taken away by Zhao Jinmai. I can only send it to her next time.

And at the moment Zhao Jinmai is videoing with his family. Had no idea that he was in trouble. I don't know that I will definitely be taught a lesson tonight.

"Mom and Dad, Rarity. Look, look, this is the roast suckling pig made by Brother Chen. Doesn't it look good." Zhao Jinmai showed off with the video camera.

"Well, it's pretty good, but Xiaochen has the ability. Compared with this, my family's dinner has no appetite." Zhao Yanfeng said with emotion.

"Hee hee, Dad, let your son-in-law cook for you whatever you want to eat." Zhao Jinmai said with a smile.

"You, can't you learn to cook?" Zhao Yanfeng looked helpless.

"Hmph, brother Chen didn't let me go to the kitchen. My brother Chen said that my hands are for pointing the country, not for cooking." Zhao Jinmai said arrogantly.

"Smelly girl, Xiaochen has been spoiled by you." Fan Shuting scolded with a smile.

"Ask him if he's happy for you." Zhao Jinmai ran to the kitchen to find Zhou Mochen after speaking.

"Husband, mom, you said you spoiled me." Zhao Jinmai pointed to the video on the phone and said.

"Well, Mom and Dad, Rarity, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." Zhou Mochen smiled and greeted several people in the video.

"Hey. Hey, Xiaochen, you've worked hard." Zhao Yanfeng said with a smile.

"Dad, you should, you should." Zhou Mochen replied with a smile.

"Xiao Chen, teach Mai Mai to cook in the future, don't spoil her too much." Fan Shuting couldn't help reminding.
