Chapter 173
"Okay, I agree!" Ren Bao'e gritted her teeth and said. From using her career to agreeing to something, it is not a loss.
Jiang Yang had no expression on his face, but he also looked up at the girl in front of him. Not everyone had the courage to agree, unless they were very confident in their strength.
"How to compare?" Jiang Yang asked.
"Simple, you ask one question, I ask one question, and then make one dish for each question. Whoever tastes good will win." Ren Bao'e said.
When Jiang Yang heard this, he pondered for a while and said, "No, you and I will each have a question, and then draw lots to decide."
"It's good." Ren Bao'e nodded and said when she heard this.
The two set the rules of the game, and the referee side was naturally served by Zhuang Li and several seniors present. Jiang Yang did not raise any objection. He believed that as a chef, he still had basic virtues.
Ren Bao'e found paper and pen and handed it to Jiang Yang. She went to think about the topic.
Jiang Yang held the pen and thought quietly.
Asking questions is actually an opportunity to gain an advantage by yourself, and you can come up with a question you are good at. In this way, if you draw your own questions, your advantage will naturally be established.
However, Jiang Yang did not do this. He didn't like to gain an advantage like this. Maybe it was because he was too pretentious, maybe it was because he pursued fairness, but in short, he was unwilling to do this in his heart.
After thinking for a long time, Jiang Yang wrote down the topic.
Coincidentally, Ren Bao'e also decided on the topic.
The two of them kneaded the paper into a ball, put it in a paper box, and shook it hard several times.
"Come on the lottery." Ren Bao'e said to Jiang Yang lightly.
"No, let's ask Chef Zhuang to do the lottery for you." Jiang Yang refused.
Ren Bao'e glanced at him and said to her master: "Then I'll trouble you."
Zhuang Li glanced at Ren Bao'e worriedly, pursed her lips, and didn't say anything. She walked straight to the box, closed her eyes, and took out a ball of paper.
Opening the paper ball, looking at the title written on it, Zhuang Li looked at the two of them and said softly: "Title: Fish."
Jiang Yang looked calm, but he nodded calmly. Ren Bao'e looked up at Zhuang Li, with an inexplicable meaning in her eyes.
After Jiang Yang heard the question clearly, he walked to the kitchen.
Since the Miaojia Sour Soup Fish Restaurant focuses on sour soup fish, it is naturally not lacking the ingredient of fish.
Jiangyang looked at it and found that most of the fish here are freshwater fish, a common species.
Such as grass carp, carp, silver carp, etc., as well as catfish, pike, mullet, etc.
The flavors of fish are different, and the suitable dishes are also different. The carp heads are large and the meat is plump. It is suitable for fish heads, such as chopped pepper fish heads, stewed fish heads, etc.; while carp meat is suitable for sweet and sour fish and other dishes.
Jiang Yang walked twice and a dish gradually appeared in his mind. He took advantage of the selection and entered the system space to practice.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yang retreated from the system space. He had experimented and practiced, and he was already sure.
Fish, Jiang Yang chose Pitfall. This fish has no small thorns and its meat is pretty good, which is exactly in line with his dishes.
On the other hand, Ren Bao'e also selected the ingredients and prepared to start processing.
Ren Bao'e's movements were smooth when dealing with the fish, scraping scales, cleaning up internal organs, and removing the fish's gills. She was extremely skillful. She knew that she was doing this frequently at a glance.
In comparison, Jiang Yang's speed was much slower, but his movements were also quite smooth, almost no worse than Ren Bao'e, but his speed was much slower.
When Jiangyang Caicai's fish was cleaned, Ren Bao'e had cut the fish on the side and put it aside to marinate it.
Jiang Yang was not in a hurry. The next steps required full attention and no carelessness was allowed.
I saw him take a deep breath, and the knife in his hand swayed and almost turned into a sword light.
The fish was digged open, and Jiang Yang used a knife to remove the fish bones.
Take the fattest meat on both sides of the back, cut it into three to four centimeters, and then carve it with a knife. The carved fish meat is round and looks no different from the usual fish meat on the surface.
After processing the fish, Jiang Yang put the fish bones into the pot and simmered them.
Marinate the fish with spices to remove the fishy smell of the fish itself.
After dealing with these, Jiang Yang found several fungi. Combined with the teachings of Mr. Cai in Chuncheng, Yun Province, Jiang Yang selected and cleaned and processed the fungi one by one before putting the fungi in the pot.
Just as Jiang Yang was processing the food, Ren Bao'e, who was standing by, also processed the ingredients to the end.
I saw that the fish was neatly marinated on a plate, and the remaining fish bones and fish heads were boiled in the pot.
Unlike Jiang Yang, there were various seasonings in front of Ren Bao'e. Jiang Yang had only seen several of them on the information given by Mr. Liao, and this was the first time he had seen them in the real thing.
I didn't have time to continue to pay attention to Ren Bao'e. Jiang Yang opened the lid of the pot and smelled it. He seemed not very satisfied, so he covered the lid and continued to boil it.
Ren Bao'e stir-frys the seasonings in a pot, and a unique sour smell comes to his nose. After the base is almost fried, Ren Bao'e adds the broth made with fish head and fish bones in advance.
Stir gently, and all kinds of flavors merged at a water temperature of 100 degrees. Ren Bao'e scooped some soup with a spoon and put it in her mouth to taste the flavor. He nodded gently, and then added some other seasonings again.
Jiang Yang smelled the pot and felt that the soup was almost the same. Turn off the heat to a minimum and keep the soup boiling and not ventilated.
At this time, the fish meat was almost marinated. Jiang Yang put the fish meat in clean water and gently shook it to wash away the spices on the surface of the fish meat.
After changing the water twice in a row, the fish was washed to the right level by Jiang Yang.
Put the prepared soup into a bowl, then put the fish in it. Finally, put it in a steamer and it can be delivered out of the pot in just a short time.
At this time, Ren Bao'e's dishes were also out of the pot and placed on a plate.
"Who is first?" Ren Bao'e looked at Jiang Yang and asked.
"It doesn't matter!" Jiang Yang shrugged. Although whoever comes first has the advantage, Jiang Yang doesn't matter.
"Then Bao'e, come first." Zhuang Li glanced at Jiang Yang and said.
When Ren Bao'e heard this, she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.
Ren Bao'e brought the dishes on the table and said, "Secretly made sour soup fish, please taste it!"
After saying that, he bowed and retreated.
Zhuang Li and several seniors looked at the table. There were a few oil floating on the fish fillets, and there were flowers made of radish on the surface.
Everyone picked up a piece and put it in their mouths to chew it.
"The sour taste is special, the fish meat is tender, and there is a slight spicy taste in the aftertaste. Unlike ordinary sour soup fish, it is very special." said an old chef.
Zhuang Li also looked at Ren Bao'e, with a look of admiration in her eyes.
Ren Bao'e smiled and said, "Thank you for Chef Li's comment."
"It's okay, I'm just telling the truth." said the chef of Sex Lee.
"I really have an idea. The fish is handled well, without fishy smell and very tender." said another chef.
