Different God of Cooking [Rebirth]

It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when the two returned to Zhao An's house.Both Zhao's father and Zhao's mother went to the vegetable market.

"Little tree, come and have a snack. Or go to sleep for a while."

Zhao An put the bought snacks on the tea table. Ji Jiashu didn't rest at noon today. On the way back just now, he saw that Ji Jiashu was a little confused.

"what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to make something to eat and try it out."

Zhao An finally bought back chicken feet and chicken breasts, so he can try some ideas.

"Then I want to help too!" Ji Jiashu said while suppressing his sleepiness.

"Can you sleep for half an hour and then get up to help, okay? You can't help in your current state."

"Okay." Ji Jiashu was so sleepy that his upper and lower eyelids seemed to be glued together.

Seeing Ji Jiashu return to his room, take off his clothes, turn into the quilt, a set of movements smoothly, Zhao An then returned to the kitchen, ready to start today's experiment.

Zhao An never thought of asking Ji Jiashu to get up in half an hour to help, let Ji Jiashu sleep until dinner.In the evening, Ji Jiashu will practice the piano for three hours when he returns home, which is also a physical labor.

Zhao An first took the chicken feet out of the shopping bag, poured warm water into an iron basin, put the chicken feet and chicken breast in it, and let them defrost naturally

In this way, the residues on the frozen meat can be cleaned again, such as blood water and ice slag, and the thawed chicken feet are also easier to taste during the marinating process.As for the chicken breast, it is for secondary processing.

Then put two stew pots on the two gas stoves, one pot filled with mother Zhao's brine.The brine that was used in the morning has now condensed into a colloid, so Zhao An only took out a part and put it into the small iron pot in front of him.The other iron pot is clean water, which will also need to be heated and boiled later.

Today, Zhao An has two goals. One is to marinate chicken feet, making chicken feet one of the main dishes of "Yip's Secret Stew".The second is to make chicken chili sauce. Zhao An has been thinking of making chili sauce a product that can be purchased separately.

Both the chicken feet and the chicken breast were thawed in warm water, and Zhao An was not idle.He began to prepare the ingredients for the chili sauce. Although there is ready-made chili sauce at home, this step must be completed during the production process of the chili sauce in order to perfectly add chicken breasts to it.

Fortunately, Zhao An's family makes chili sauce every day, so they have a lot of raw materials at home.

The first is to remove the stalks of the Zhitian pepper and chop it into pieces.

Although Chaotian pepper is more famous in S Province, Zhao's mother has chosen Zhitian pepper since she learned how to make chili sauce.

The so-called Chaotian pepper has small fruit, high spiciness, and is easy to dry. It is mainly processed as a dried pepper variety.Zhitian pepper is actually a kind of Chaotian pepper, but it is thick in flesh, bright red in color, full of spiciness and rich in aroma.It is more suitable for fresh peppers.

Choosing Zhitian pepper can not only guarantee the spiciness, but also ensure that the chili sauce has a certain chewing feeling even if it is eaten alone.

In addition to chili peppers, Zhao An also prepared minced garlic, white sugar, minced ginger, white vinegar, salt, and water starch in turn... Zhao An has lost count of how many times he has seen Zhao's mother make chili sauce. In the past book, Zhao An completely standardized and programmed the production of chili sauce.

The weight ratio of each material, the particle size of pepper, ginger and garlic, the cooking process and time, the number of times of stir-frying... If there is no oil thermometer now, he even has the oil temperature when adding the ingredients, and the oil temperature changes at different stages. record it.

Only strict process control can ensure the quality and stable taste of the final product.

This is not the first time Zhao An has made chili sauce. Zhao An made it with Zhao's mother some time ago.It took about 10 minutes to prepare all the materials.

At this time, the chicken feet and chicken breast meat had also been thawed in warm water, and the water in the iron pot began to boil at the same time.

Zhao An quickly cleaned the chicken breast, and then put it into a pot of clean water to boil it directly.If the chicken breast is fried, it is actually very difficult to keep the chicken breast from becoming woody due to high temperature.

Zhao An's method does not need to maintain the original shape of the chicken breast, so it can be boiled boldly.

Of course, if it is a native chicken that is often raised for more than one year, it will become woody when boiled.But no one would use local chickens to make frozen chicken breasts. Zhao An is sure that this belongs to broilers that have been raised for no more than three months.

After the chicken breast was put into the pot, Zhao An cleaned the chicken feet again, and then threw the chicken feet into the boiling brine without any psychological burden.

Zhao An's brine is seasoned by Zhao's mother every day. Salt, spices, sugar and even oil are kept at a relatively stable level. Zhao An doesn't need to process it himself.

All he needs to do is to control the temperature and time to avoid the taste of the chicken feet being too hard or too soft.

After about three to five minutes, the chicken breasts were completely cooked. Zhao An used a colander to remove the chicken breasts from the pot, and placed them on the cutting board after the cold water had cooled down.

He wants a chili sauce that doesn't need to be chewed hard, has a strong enough taste, can be served with rice or even become a semi-finished condiment.

After much thought, Zhao An chose the latter among chicken nuggets, shredded chicken and minced chicken.

Zhao An's original plan was to start chopping meat with a knife, but he suddenly found out that Ji Jiashu was still asleep on his bed.The kitchen in his house has no door at all, and the sound insulation effect of the bedroom door can be said to be close to zero.

It's better to wait for Ji Jiashu to sleep for a while, anyway, the remaining steps can be completed in half an hour.

At the moment when Zhao An made up his mind, the alarm clock rang loudly.

"Jingle, jingle, jingle..."

I didn't set the alarm clock, Zhao An was puzzled, but the movements of his feet were not slow at all, he quickly came to his bedroom, trying to turn off the alarm clock.

As a result, as soon as he entered the door, he saw the alarm clock next to the pillow, which was definitely not where he usually put the alarm clock.

Zhao An felt a sense of clarity, at the same time Ji Jiashu also opened his eyes, then sat up, and said to Zhao An with a hazy face:

"An'an, I'm getting up. I'm here to help."

Zhao An shook his head with a smile, how could he forget about it.Ji Jiashu has been taking a lunch break at his house for half a semester.Most of the time, Ji Jiashu is in charge of setting the alarm clock. Of course, he knows the location of the alarm clock and how to set it.

Zhao An really couldn't hold back, walked up to Ji Jiashu, and stretched his cool hand directly into Ji Jiashu's warm back.

This is the most favorite game played by the boys in the class recently, but no one has dared to do this to Zhao An and Ji Jiashu.

The former is already the most respected study committee member in the class, not only excelling in studies, but also in sports.The boys in the class couldn't understand why someone could be so good at studies and sports at the same time.

As for Ji Jiashu, he was cared by the whole class. Although Zhao An was 13 years old like Ji Jiashu, the students in the class only showed a caring attitude towards Ji Jiashu.Not much to say about Ji Jiashu's achievements, but his talent in music is obvious to all.

More importantly, Ji Jiashu was "covered" by Zhao An. No one doubted that if he bullied Ji Jiashu, Zhao An would definitely be furious and call him a friend.

Naturally, Ji Jiashu was also spared from the prank of "eating ice cream".

Ji Jiashu, who was still somewhat confused, became sober in an instant.He would not be afraid of Zhao An's "excessive power" in the class, so he immediately launched a counterattack against Zhao An

The two played together on the bed for five or six minutes before Zhao An remembered the chicken feet stewed in the pot.

Zhao An immediately begged for mercy to King Ji Jiashu, and King Ji Jiashu told Zhao An to go back to the kitchen because he said that the adults would not remember the villains, while Ji Jiashu began to fold the quilt proficiently.

Returning to the kitchen, Zhao An finally started chopping meat without any scruples.

Fortunately, Zhao An has been doing strength training all the time, and his body has begun to enter the development stage, so his hands are strong enough to swing the kitchen knife freely.

Cooked chicken breast meat is quite loose, and it quickly becomes loose minced meat under the kitchen knife.

At this time, Ji Jiashu had already come to Zhao An's side, but seeing Zhao An waving the kitchen knife, Ji Jiashu chose to remain silent.The matter of the kitchen knife was beyond the scope of what he could help.

Zhao An put the processed minced chicken breast on the side plate, and then prepared to clear the cutting board.

"I'm coming! I'm coming!"

Ji Jiashu saw something he could do and immediately asked for it.Zhao An didn't give in anymore, and directly handed the cutting board to Ji Jiashu, and then started making chili sauce.

First heat the wok, then add enough vegetable oil.When the oil temperature rises to smoke, add the minced peppers to it.

Zizizi, the chili immediately releases the unique aroma of frying at high temperature, and this pungent aroma stimulates the taste of the cook.

Then Zhao An added various ingredients such as minced ginger and minced garlic.Cooking is a very magical thing. In fact, many people don't like the taste of ginger and garlic alone, but after various cooking treatments, ginger and garlic will undergo wonderful chemical changes with the original ingredients.

Then Zhao An added white granulated sugar. At this time, Zhao An turned down the stove to prevent the white granulated sugar from scorching due to high temperature, which would darken the color of the chili sauce.

This step is a special test of the mastery of the heat. If the time is too short or the temperature is insufficient, the white sugar will not completely melt.

If the white sugar in the chili sauce is still grainy, the chili sauce has failed.

The bright red chilli paste is constantly stir-frying in the pan.In fact, by this time the chili sauce has basically formed, and the next step is to adjust the taste of the chili sauce.

But Zhao An poured the minced chicken breast meat on the side into the pot, the ratio of chili sauce and chicken was basically one to one, and continued to stir fry.

The white minced meat is mixed with the red chili sauce, and the protein-based meat reacts with the high-temperature vegetable oil to change the texture and taste of the chili sauce again.

The minced chicken breast meat is easy to taste, and after stirring for another 2 minutes, the two have been completely fused together.

Zhao An added another bowl of water to the pot, brought it to a boil on high heat, and simmered on low heat. When the chili sauce became thick again, he added water starch.Finally, when the sauce was almost dry, Zhao An turned off the gas stove.

Zhao An put the viscous chili sauce from the pot into the porcelain plate prepared in advance.

The translucent chili sauce allows you to clearly see the red chili and white minced meat. The color and aroma are enough to whet your appetite.And the outer layer of mature oil can ensure that the chili sauce can be preserved for a long time.

The next step is to taste it, whether the taste and texture of this "chicken minced chili sauce" is up to standard!
