Rebirth as a Cooking God

Chapter 253 Improved Paella (Part 1)

Minegasaki left.

Xinhu Feisha also took Erina away.

Xia Yu returned to the kitchen, seeing the clean bowls and plates stacked neatly all over the cabinet, he couldn't help but secretly nodded.

He figured it out, the waiter in the small shop simply asked Yuanyue students to come over for a one-month guest job, which was equivalent to working off-campus. In addition to the fixed salary, Xia Yu would also teach them cooking skills and experience.

In this way, there is no need to worry about shortage of manpower.

Wait this weekend, go to Yuanyue and discuss with the old man Nakiri Senzaemon. Xia Yu thought to himself. The students must be happy, and with the permission of Yuanyue's senior management, this matter will be easy to handle.

The kitchen was tidy and there were no customers at the midnight stall, so Xia Yu had nothing to do but practice cooking.

Of the 10 catties of 'black rice' bought by Liangzi Lina, only half of the catty was used in Baiou High School, and the rest was sealed in the food storage box.

The fantasy ingredients are not unlocked, and the system can't put the corresponding fantasy ingredients for him to practice when communicating with the God of Cooking space. Therefore, if you want to make the real Valencia Baia, you have to do it in reality.

The paella cooked with the evolutionary explosion, the taste of 'fire' should be even more explosive?

During the day, Xia Yu didn't try to use the two cooking skills of [Explosive Flame] and [Spice Inequality] in the experimental work of Baiou High School, but simply followed the original recipe to imitate.

Now that he has successfully imitated the original Grand Cru, it means he has mastered the recipe.

Next, is to modify!

Minor revisions can't be called improvement, because improvement is based on the results of practice, and improvement can be said to be established when he actually cooks dishes with higher quality than the original recipe.

Sitting in front of the bar like a guest, Xia Yu had a notebook in front of him. He frowned, biting the tip of the pen with his teeth, and his eyes stopped on the string of spice names on the paper.

The spices used include saffron, red pepper powder, chicken powder and fish powder.

The nib is swept over saffron, a spice that tastes roughly the same around the world.

Red pepper powder...

Xia Yu murmured.

This kind of red pepper powder is not the chili powder in Chinese spices. The full name is Spanish sweet paprika powder. It is peeled and dried from red bell peppers, then ground and mixed with chili powder, so it has only a very light spicy taste and a mild flavor. And lively.

The focus is on the modulation of red pepper powder and chili powder!

The ratio is worth thinking about.

Just like Chinese five-spice powder, amomum, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon and star anise are used. Adding more or less of each spice will affect the final taste of five-spice powder.

Spices together, pay attention to the subtleties.

Now Xia Yu is trying to control all the variables related to spices in Valencia Baia, and use [Spice Inequality] to see if the structure can be further optimized.

By the way, chicken powder and fish powder!

There is a serious look in his eyes.

Xia Yu was 100% sure that the chicken powder and fish powder that Dojima Gin used to cook paella were all handmade by himself.

Because, the quality of condiments such as chicken powder and fish powder can be easily distinguished by a slightly experienced chef by dipping a little finger in it.

In addition, chicken powder and chicken essence should not be confused.

Chicken powder is more often used to add flavor to dishes, which is healthier and more natural, and is used by chefs as artificial spices.

Same goes for fishmeal.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu went to the kitchen and found a well-preserved can of chicken meal and a can of fish meal from the cabinet.

Most of these bottles and jars were left by the old man.

After unscrewing a cover, Xia Yu's complexion changed slightly.

With the improvement of physical fitness, enhanced senses, and sharpened sense of smell, Xia Yu was able to discover many things that had been ignored before.

Wave after wave of natural breath seemed to be a tide brewing in the kitchen. Xia Yu pursed her lips, and went to unscrew the lid of another bottle containing chicken powder. Suddenly, the two breaths collided in the kitchen, making Xia Yu feel a little sick. Feeling the horror of the explosion vortex, goosebumps appeared on the skin.

call--

After closing the lid, Xia Yu was able to breathe.

Although I don't know what quality seasoning powder it is, it's enough for me. Xia Yu patted his hot forehead.

Thinking back to the old man's various situations, his head was in chaos.

The old man must be a special class, perhaps a rare Lin chef.

He has been able to use the cooking heart freely. In the past few years, when Xia Yu tasted his dishes, he never tasted the so-called cooking heart, but perhaps, he was not able to taste it in the past The realm of mind.

Shiyi!

The word popped out of my head again inexplicably.

After comprehending the 'heart of the kitchen', to be promoted to Chef Lin, one must comprehend the profound meaning of food. Could the mystery of the old man be related to the righteousness of food?

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Yu shook his head, sketched on the paper, and tried to reorganize the spice structure of Valencia Baia.

Two o'clock at midnight.

Excitedly holding the spice formula, Xia Yu got into the kitchen and started practicing.

Cook the stock first.

Put celery, scallions, onions, tomatoes, carrots and other vegetables into the clear water in the cooking pot. It doesn’t need to be delicate, just cut them into large pieces, which is good for absorbing fat.

Due to the limitation of ingredients, Xia Yu decided to use chicken broth. In Dojima Gin's recipes, there are two broth options, and chicken soup is one of them.

But the broth here uses chicken bones instead of chicken, because chicken bones have very little fat.

Next, heat the pan and fry the ingredients first.

'Baiaya' is a kind of frying pan, but Xia's shop does not have it, so Xia Yu simply opened the cupboard and left it in a corner. A blue quality frying pan (glow probability +10% ), placed on the stove.

Scallops, shelled prawns, diced monkfish, etc. Fry these, and when the stock comes to a boil, ladle a few spoonfuls of stock into the pan.

Then, let's put 'black rice'!

Using a transparent measuring cup, Xia Yu carefully measured the imaginary ingredient 'black rice'.

Sigh...

The moment the pitch-black rice touched the pan, thick white smoke immediately invaded the entire kitchen.

During the stewing process, it is the key link of adding spices!

10 grams of red pepper powder, 3 grams of saffron, 15 grams of rosemary, 2 bay leaves...

Thinking silently, Xia Yu turned around at the kitchen counter in the back, and brought out a Western-style vegetable that had been cut into small petals. This is the CP match of 'pitch black rice', and artichokes are indispensable.

Artichoke, 50 grams!

Use high heat throughout the whole process, and simmer for 20 minutes. The heat is almost the same.

Click.

Turning off the valve of the stove, Xia Yu took a deep breath, turned to look at the oven, but gave up on the idea of ​​abandoning the oven.

After a little hesitation, Xia Yu made up his mind and took a large sheet of tin foil. After tinkering with it for a while, he finally made the tin foil into a pocket shape and fixed it on a large plate.

Pour the semi-finished product in the pan into the tin foil, and seal the mouth of the bag with tape.

The charcoal stove kept a strong fire temperature all night, Xia Yu added some new charcoal into it, just carried a bag of paella, put it on the barbed wire of the charcoal stove, and turned on the blower.

15 minutes later.

Lift a foil-wrapped paella bag and place on a plate.

Xia Yu stared at the finished product in front of him, his heart beat faster, and he said to himself expectantly: Can it be done?
