Chapter 226 Tan’s Cuisine
"Brother, what did you do this afternoon?"
"That's right, brother, didn't you tell Uncle He this morning that you had packed dinner? You actually came back at this time, how long will dinner have to wait?"
Xiao Danghuaihua pulled Jia Yi into the door from left to right and asked.
They weren't in a hurry to eat. There were a lot of peanuts, melon seeds, and dried sweet potatoes in the hall, so they wouldn't be hungry at all. They were just curious about what Jia Yi was doing this afternoon.
Don't they know Jia Yi? He goes to work in the morning and clocks in. Jia Yi leaked the word about clocking in, and then he starts doing his own thing. Anyway, he won't stay at the work for too long.
Today is very strange. What on earth is Jia Yi busy with this afternoon?
"Okay, let me tell you, I'm going to deliver something to your Aunt Yuyu and Aunt Jingru this afternoon."
Jia Yi actually went to his younger brother Guan Jing's house, but it was not convenient to tell them.
The two sisters looked at each other and were surprised. It was normal for him to give it to He Yuzhu. After all, they had been neighbors since childhood, and now they had He Yuzhu's stepfather as a bond. The two families were extremely close, but Qin Jingru was different.
Ah, they don't have much contact with each other.
Jia Yi knew what they were thinking by looking at their looks. He stretched out his hand to touch their heads. He thought about it again and again, but finally decided to forget it. Don't make it uncomfortable. He retracted his hand and said to be honest.
,A bit disappointed.
"Tell me, what would Mom think if she knew I only gave it to Aunt Yuyu?"
When Jia Yi said this, the two sisters understood that if Qin Huairu knew that Jia Yi only gave gifts to He Yuyu but not to Qin Jingru, the consequences would make Jia Yi nagging him to death, and they would tremble in cold war when they thought of that scene.
"Brother, you did the right thing."
Xiaodang gave a thumbs up, thinking that it was better to be a child and not have to think about so many troublesome things.
Huaihua's focus is different. She is more curious about what Jia Yi sent, and it has to be today.
"Brother, what did you give me?"
"It's just a table of dishes, my newly learned Tan family cuisine."
Sophora japonica asked in surprise.
"Ah, is it the dish in the cookbook that Uncle He gave you?"
"Uh, brother, didn't Uncle He say that the materials were hard to find and there was no way to make it?"
Huaihua listened to Xiaodang's words and nodded in agreement. This was also her doubt. At that time, He Yuzhu said this when he handed the recipe to Jia Yi. Moreover, Jia Yi had never made it in the past few years.
The dishes in this recipe book, so they always thought that Jia Yi also couldn't find the ingredients and couldn't make it.
After all, if Jia Yi found all the materials, how could he not make it? This is not in line with his character.
Jia Yi seemed to see two pairs of cat eyes staring at him closely.
"Why, is it easy to find your usual food? How dare you doubt your brother and my ability."
He couldn't help it anymore, and stretched out his hand to stroke the two kittens in front of him. Sure enough, their fur instantly exploded, and they opened their teeth and claws at him.
"Brother, why are you like this again?"
"That's right, sister, we can't let him go..."
Jia Yi was speechless. What else could you two do to him? To be honest, I haven't done this for a long time. I really couldn't hold it back today.
With one hand and one pair, grab the four little paws.
"Okay, okay, I won't do it next time, let's just do it this time. I should prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner."
"All right."
The two sisters reluctantly agreed. They originally wanted to play with Jia Yi for a while, but they had not been so happy for a long time.
While arranging her hair, she followed Jia Yi to the backyard.
Jia Yi quickly stopped the two of them and said.
"Just stay here..."
"No, we will help you..."
Jia Yi smiled bitterly. As far as the three-legged cats of the two of them were concerned, let alone help, it would be good if they could avoid getting messed up.
Therefore, he quickly refused.
"No, actually, I have made all the dishes into semi-finished products in advance. I just need to heat them up."
Actually, they are not semi-finished products, but fully cooked. They are now waiting quietly in the Taoyuan warehouse.
The two sisters were a little reluctant, and they didn't feel like they were participating.
Moreover, they were not even allowed to make dumplings during the Chinese New Year. It was really a pity that they couldn't show off their hard-earned dumpling-making skills because their hands were itchy.
"If you really want to help, then go to the cellar and take the five jars of rice wine on the first row of shelves to the hall. By the way, there is also juice. Remember to take it with you. I will be here soon. Wait for them to come back.
Let’s have dinner.”
After finding an excuse to send Xiaodang Huaihua away, Jia Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There isn't much in the kitchen now. If they went there together, wouldn't they reveal their secrets?
Open the kitchen door, light a fire to cook dumplings, and add a beef pot. You can eat beef and heat cold dishes.
After a while, he moved his ears and heard the front yard becoming lively.
It was He Yuzhu and the others who came back. Jia Yi quickly took out all the dishes. The temperature in the kitchen was relatively high, so it would be fine if they were left for a while.
"Xiaodang locust flower..."
"Here we come, brother."
As soon as the two sisters heard the greeting, they ran in immediately, and Qin Huairu heard the sound and came over.
"Well, you've done it all, so quickly?"
"Stop talking about this, everyone is back?"
"Well, we are all back. No one will delay today."
Qin Huairu gave an affirmative answer. She was very curious about what kind of dishes were covered with them. She also saw him muttering something to He Yuzhu this morning, but at that time, she was tidying up the room and didn't pay attention.
"That's good, let's just serve it!"
While they were talking, Han Li and her daughter also came over. It just so happened that we could all carry it together, and it would only take three trips.
In the hall, a table of thirteen people looked at the dishes on the table curiously. Except for the beef pot and a plate of dumplings in the middle, all ten dishes on the table were covered.
This was Jia Yi's special request. For this reason, he even picked up two kittens who could not control themselves. In exchange for this, he got four big sanitary balls.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Brother, the dishes are all served, it's time to open the lid."
Jia Yi looked at the curious and expectant eyes of everyone and felt satisfied.
"Okay, let me introduce to you my latest achievement - Tan Family Cuisine."
Jia Yi said and opened the first dish.
He Yuzhu also started to explain at the right time. He had also read the recipes and naturally knew these dishes, but he had never made them himself.
"The first dish is braised shark's fin. This is the signature dish of Tan's cuisine. It uses the precious "Luzon yellow", which is a shark's fin originating from the Philippines. This kind of fin has a layer of
The meat is as fat as fat, rich in gum and has an excellent taste."
Jia Yi: "!!"
Actually, this is just ordinary shark's fin, but Taoyuan's product is naturally better than Luzon Huang, and the taste and texture are also superior.
He Yuzhu then sighed with emotion.
"What we use here is whole wings. We need to soak them in cold and hot water first and then let them marinate. Don't rush. Other methods of soaking will greatly damage the taste and texture. Then, use the whole chicken and duck.
, scallops and ham are used to make the soup, and finally the soaked shark fin is added, and it is simmered over low heat for six hours until all the essence of the ingredients has entered the shark fin. Only then will the dish be considered complete."
Qin Huairu said with emotion.
"It's so complicated."
Most of the others nodded in agreement.
It's just a few snack foodies that are different, that's what they said.
“It tastes delicious as soon as I hear it.”
In fact, He Yuzhu still has something to say. In the past, those dignitaries were really luxurious. This braised shark fin dish only uses shark fin and soup. The ingredients for the soup, the whole chicken and duck, scallops, and ham have to be filtered out.
food.
But, this is all cheap for the chef.
Jia Yi didn't say anything, and quietly waited for He Yuzhu to finish his introduction before opening the second door.
He Yuzhu said in surprise.
"Why isn't it agar-agar clear soup?"
Jia Yi said helplessly.
"Uncle He, where do you want me to find bird's nests for you?"
The trouble doesn't stop there. The bird's nest used to make this dish is very unusual. It is a Siamese bird's nest, which was used as a tribute in the past. It is white and transparent in color and has very little hair in the bird's nest. It is the best bird's nest. He also cooks this kind of bird's nest.
He really couldn't get it. The most important thing was that he couldn't get this kind of swallow.
When it comes to this clear soup with agar-agar, there are some things to pay attention to when eating it. The chef must first prepare a small cup of warm water for the diners to rinse their mouths. This is because it has a delicious and mellow taste. It can only be tasted better when there is no unpleasant taste in the mouth.
Good taste of the delicious food.
