Chapter 1917 3 Touch Sauce

Latest website: What surprised Kang Hu was the way Yuan Zhou spread the sauce. It was very special and had never been seen before.

It was not applied with hands. Before that, Yuan Zhou had pierced a handful of green wild garlic, dipped it in the sauce, and then smeared it on the chicken.

Yuan Zhou spread the sauce very quickly. He only used one hand, and the other hand didn't touch the chicken at all. It only took him three minutes to spread the sauce inside and out.

"I didn't even see it clearly. It turns out that there are so many details about applying sauces." Jin Hai was dazzled by what he saw. He kept his eyes wide open for fear of missing a key step.

"The roasted golden bird is probably an ancient recipe handed down from the Tang Dynasty." Yuan Zhou explained: "In fact, there is a saying of 'three touches of sauce', which means that the sauce needs to be applied three times. For example, when making roast chicken, the first time is to use Rub the chicken wings and chicken head with your hands, rub it with wild garlic or ginger for the second time, and finally rub it with water."

"Both ginger and wild garlic can increase the flavor of meat and reduce the fishy smell. The ancients were really smart when it came to eating." Yuan Zhou said that he tried both ginger and wild garlic, and in the end the latter was more suitable.

Strictly speaking, Kang Hu and Jin Hai are both one step away from reaching the level of culinary masters. They also feel that they are well-informed, but they have never heard of the "three-touch sauce" mentioned by Yuan Zhou.

In fact, I have never heard of it. It’s not that the two of them have little experience. Now even if they search online, they can’t find “Sanmojiang”. The main reason is that after the Yuan Dynasty, “Sanmojiang” has long been replaced. Yuan Zhou knows The reason is just because he is Yuan Zhou.

While the chicken was being marinated, Yuanzhou fired it in the kiln, using pine and cypress branches in order to preserve its aroma and make the roasted chicken taste better.

This is the method that Yuanzhou came up with before when Wu Hai said that chicken needs more firewood than roasted goose. First, use kiln roasting method to roast the chicken until it is seven-mature, and then roast it over an open fire to reduce the juice, so that the meat is tight. The degree of crispness and tenderness has skyrocketed.

According to the steps, Yuan Zhou did not rush or panic, step by step, and he also had some knowledge of the baking method, and Yuan Zhou also explained it.

There are three main roasting methods in the Tang Dynasty: "roasting with fire, roasting with low fire, and roasting with horizontal fire". Yuanzhou himself learned from "Yunlintang Food System Collection" written by Ni Zan and "Food Constitution" written by Zhu Yizun. "Hong Mi", as well as "Suiyuan Food List" and other ancient books summarized.

Instead, Yuanzhou adopted the "brick roasting" method commonly used in the Ming Dynasty. To put it simply, Yuanzhou felt that this ancient method could be improved due to the problems of the times.

During the baking process, Yuan Zhou deliberately slowed down while explaining so that Jin Hai and Kang Hu could see clearly.

Of course this is Yuan Zhou's idea.

Yuan Zhou's slowdown was only for himself. For Jin Hai and Kang Hu, they still only had barely memories.

I don’t know how many times I have lamented in my heart that Chef Yuan has too much and too comprehensive knowledge about cooking. Previously, Yuanzhou had a nickname called "Sichuan Cuisine Kunlun", but Kang Hu and Jin Hai thought it should be "Chinese Cuisine Kunlun".

"Prick, prick, prick"

The grease dripped on the flames, making a sound, and a strong fragrance continued to emanate from the roasted chicken. Both Jin Hai and Kang Hu felt that they must have not eaten for ten days, otherwise they would not be so hungry. If not for Yuan Zhou There, you might want to grab it, it's so delicious.

"Chiliu, Chiliu"

He sucked the saliva into his mouth again, and finally waited for the sound of nature. Yuanzhou announced that the roast was done and put the roast chicken on a large plate. Yuan Zhou didn't see any action. The roast chicken was divided into pieces with the heat.

"You guys give it a try." Yuan Zhou looked at the two people who wished their eyes were glued to the plates and said.

"Okay." The two replied angrily, and then pounced on the roast chicken.

I don’t know how long I have practiced this skilled posture of a hungry tiger attacking a sheep. It is very similar to the posture of a black beast.

"In the final analysis, Wu Hai's way of eating is the most popular way?" Yuanzhou felt that this posture was very familiar.

"Hiss, hot." Jin Hai had a geographical advantage over Kang Hu and stood one step closer, so he first picked up a piece of chicken and put it into his mouth. Coincidentally, what he picked up was a piece of chicken breast.

Logically speaking, chicken breast, no matter how it is grilled, will feel a bit burnt and the taste will be quite different. However, after Jin Hai took it into his mouth, as soon as he bit his teeth, abundant juices immediately rushed out. The tender chicken was mixed with the gravy. , it tastes particularly delicious, with a little bit of crispy chicken skin, adding a little toughness to the tenderness, and the faint pine and cypress aroma highlights the freshness and sweetness of the chicken, which is quite delicious.

"This is the roasted golden bird in the family records." Jin Hai was shaking his head as he ate, taking a piece of it into his mouth from time to time with an expression of great enjoyment.

Anyway, the moment he took it into his mouth, Jin Hai concluded that this was the authentic record. In fact, to be precise, it should taste better than the original one, as Yuan Zhou had improved it.

As for Kang Hu, he only has the instinct to eat now. As long as his mouth is empty, he will pick up meat without stopping at all.

"It's already halfway through. You should be able to taste it. It's time for my big black beast to appear." The black beast squatting at the door has been lurking for a long time.

Seeing that the amount of chicken on the plate was visibly reduced, he knew that Yuan Zhou had specially cooked it for Jin Hai and the others, and he should have taught them how to make it. Therefore, he restrained his beastly instinct of eating. After making sure that everyone had tasted it, Wu The sea moved.

"Shua"

Jin Hai and Kang Hu only felt a gust of wind blowing by, and then nothing more. "Bang" was the sound of chopsticks hitting the stone table, and the plates disappeared.

That is, the moment I raised my eyes, the plate appeared, and then the inside was as clean as new and there was no meat left.

"Compass, this chicken tastes better than yesterday's, and it feels no worse than roast goose." Wu Hai said, stroking his beard in a decent manner.

Jin Hai and Kang Hu are not strangers to Wu Hai. Everyone has heard the names of the mythical beasts in the God of Cooking shop, not to mention that both of them are Yuan Zhou's fans.

"Hidden ability has improved a lot, I didn't even notice it just now." Yuanzhou thought to himself.

It was true that Wu Hai lurked at the door after smelling the fragrance, but it was strange that no one, including Yuan Zhou, noticed him before he came out.

After eating the chicken, Wu Hai retired, leaving Jin Hai and Kang Hu to continue to circle around Yuan Zhou. After all, such an opportunity is too rare. If you don't seize the opportunity, you will definitely be a fool. Jin Hai and Kang Hu will All the cooking questions during this period are brought out for answers.

Jin Hai asked about the roasted golden bird. Yuanzhou also knew that demonstrating it once would not work, so he wrote a booklet for Jin Hai.

Kang Hu asked about other cooking skills, and both of them gained a lot.

After the consultation, Kang Hu and Jin Hai did not leave, but stayed in line for dinner.

After the busy dinner time, Yuanzhou went upstairs to wash up, and the time in the tavern was about to begin.

"What day is today? Isn't it almost time to sell new year's goods?" Yuan Zhou walked to the table and planned to flip through the calendar.

Yuanzhou was asked every day when he would sell new year's goods, and it was almost a habit for Yuanzhou to look at the calendar.

"Huh? The old lady will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. It's time to take some time to see her." Yuan Zhou flipped through the calendar and found that tomorrow was circled, with a line of small words on it that said 'Old lady is discharged from the hospital'.

…
