Chapter 93: Skillfully Carved Jade Lotus Roots
In fact, Huai Liangren read that right. Zhou Dong had silver needles used in traditional Chinese medicine, but this is called "Gu Jiu Needle". Nowadays, even some old Chinese doctors rarely use them. They are at least twice as long as ordinary silver needles and are about twice as thicker.
After Zhou Dong got the recipe for "Biyuanlin Yu Porridge", he went to Shennongtang in front of Chudu Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to buy it. He took some more thoughts to bend the needle.
This flap pin looks like a tool used to draw inside a snuff bottle, but it is longer and thinner, making it more difficult to control.
When Huailiang looked at this strange silver needle, he felt that he was becoming increasingly unable to see through this kind of genius; chefs sometimes use steel needles when handling food. For example, when making bundles of meat, they first use steel needles to penetrate the meat to make it taste good, but that is a steel needle. Who has ever seen a silver needle?
Although the Gu Jiu Needle is thicker and longer than the ordinary silver Needle, its hardness is not as hard as the steel Needle. At this moment, when the mountain wind blows, the needle body shakes trembling, which really makes the eyes of the good man Huai.
After Zhou Dong gently penetrated the folding needle into the lotus hole, the thumb and index finger that clamped the needle's tail quickly shaking. A silver needle in his hand was like a dragon waving its tail, and the crow frog shook its head. The two fingers suddenly bent and shrank back, and then straight forward again. The movement was natural, as if an antelope was hanging its horns, so it was natural!
After a while, I took back the silver needle and gently shook the lotus root section in my left hand against the porcelain plate. Suddenly, a lot of lotus root powder fell from the lotus root holes, quickly covering the bottom of the plate.
"This is?"
Huai Liangren was stunned for a moment and came to his senses. He quickly ran to the well at the corner of the yard to draw water and wash his hands. Then he ran back to Zhou Dong, picking up the lotus section that Zhou Dong had processed, and watching carefully in front of the sun.
Under the sunlight, the snow-white lotus body seemed to be transparent, and a clear pattern appeared on the inner layer of this lotus root; it was countless winding and twisting channels extending from the inner layer to the surface, just like the capillaries of the human body, with great connections, seemingly messy, but very rules!
"Zhou Dong! You actually...used needles to open many capillary channels for this lotus root!
I understand, I understand! It turns out that this is your secret skill! If you make the lotus root like this, it will be easy to taste and taste delicious no matter how you make it!
How could you have such a technique...my God, are you a devil?"
The good man felt happy and sour in his heart.
What’s happy is that he has not been connected with this friend. He is indeed a genius of the world. What’s sour is that he saw this trick, but it is difficult to learn it. Who would have thought that he would have to know the “internal painting” technique first when dealing with a piece of lotus root!
What's more, Zhou Dong's technique seems to be much more clever than the masters of inner paintings I've seen on TV.
Do you want to be so exaggerated? You are obviously geniuses, but you are trying to kill anyone if you create such a big gap!
Zhou Dong shook his head: "There is nothing but a skillful person..." For guys like Huai Liangren, you have to pretend if you need to.
"It makes sense, good words!"
The man Huai Liang made up his mind to turn around and get such a silver needle, and then waste the white lotus root...
Zhou Dong processed ten lotus segments like this and piled them in a bamboo basket prepared in advance. At this time, Shen Cheng's lotus root powder was almost air-dried, and Zhou Dong began to clean the spring spinach that Li Xiuchen's wife had just picked.
These ten pieces of white lotus roots completely broke the class barriers. Huailiangren thought that he should not be the only one who was shocked and dropped his chin, so he enthusiastically promoted Shen Cheng to another "Zhou Miracle."
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the two guys marveling around the white lotus root, Zhou Dong quickly activated the perfect vegetable washing skill.
The spinach in spring is originally fresh, juicy, tender and delicious. As Zhou Dong threw a lot of praise into it as if it was not expensive, the spinach in spring seemed to be given life and began to sprinkle autumn waves to this magical young chef. Through the water, Zhou Dong seemed to be able to feel the vitality of these plants.
"Although it is still a perfect level of washing vegetables, it seems that the perfect level skill that has reached the critical point of upgrading is still a little different from before?
If you break through to the legendary skill, I wonder what magic will it be?"
"Is this about juice?"
When I saw Zhou Dong using inner painting skills to process white lotus roots, and when I saw him washing spinach, if I still couldn't think of a way to get the "Bilong Root", Huai Liangren, a three-star Michelin chef, is Xibei.
"I guessed it right.
But this time I can't use a juicer. I need to squeeze out spinach juice, but I don't allow spinach puree to be mixed into the juice. Then, no matter how much I filter it afterwards, the spinach juice will have a bit of bitterness."
Zhou Dong looked at Huai Liangren: "Michelin three-star chef, should this craft be there?"
Huai Liangren glared at him angrily: "Of course there is, there are, but there are not many people who dare to call me like this. No, there is no such thing!"
Zhou Dong frowned and said, "Then I'll do it myself."
"I didn't finish it! No one dared to call me like this, you are an exception!"
Huai Liangren snatched the vegetable bowl and said coldly: "Let you see my skills!"
"Done it well."
Zhou Dong handed the spinach to Huailiangren and opened the honey jar that Li Xiuchen had brought in early in the morning.
When the lid was opened, a pure nectar scent came to my face. You didn’t have to taste it and you knew that Li Xiuchen was not wrong. This is real honey, not the kind of sugar mixed with sugar.
Zhou Dong nodded with satisfaction, poured the honey into the porcelain bowl that had been washed in front of him, and took an empty bowl of the same size, picked up the honey bowl and raised it high, slowly pouring the honey into the empty bowl. The honey was pulled into a long, dazzling and dazzling by the sun, like a five-color brocade belt.
When the honey bowl was empty, Zhou Dong quickly changed his left and right hands and poured the honey back into the original bowl. He repeated this for more than a dozen times, as if he was having fun.
Shen Cheng was puzzled: "Master Huai, what is Master Zhou doing? Are you not tired?"
"What do you know? No matter how good the honey is precipitated in the jar for a long time, it will lose its activity. It is to stimulate the activity of the honey so that the honey fragrance can be fully evaporated. Look at it well, you have more things to learn."
Shen Cheng couldn't help but be amazed: "There are so many things to pay attention to. I didn't expect that there are so many things to pay attention to when making porridge. God, what price should Lao Liu set for this porridge? If you make a cheaper one, I'm sorry for Master Xiao Zhou's skills!"
"You know money, it's art, do you understand?"
Huai Liang shook his head repeatedly when he heard this. The fool is the fool, and the little sparrow is the little sparrow. Only his wild geese, who is aiming at the nine heavens, can barely follow Zhou Dong, the man who is the master of the colorful phoenix?
"Is the spinach juice ready?"
Zhou Dong turned a deaf ear to the two of them. He kept pouring the bowl more than a dozen times. Seeing that the honey in the bowl was almost transparent, it showed a hazy feeling contained in the beautiful jade. Knowing that the time was coming, he quickly turned his head to look at Huailiangren.
"Get spinach juice!"
