Chapter 639 Peanut Trotter Soup (2 Chapters)
A serving of dog food costs 20,000 Huaxia coins!
Thinking about Ye Fei being drunk, this is undoubtedly the most extravagant dog food in the world, even those hundreds of millions or even tens of billions of gods, their dogs cannot eat such dog food!
After buying the ingredients, Ye Fei thought about it and bought another auxiliary material from the system, which is also a traditional Chinese medicine called Tongcao.
Tongcao, also known as Koutuo, Yishang, and Linan and Congcao, have many aliases, but they all say the same thing.
This kind of medicinal material has a great effect, that is, women who have given birth can pass milk after eating it, and the effect is very obvious.
Since the milk of the Golden Retriever is insufficient, there may be two situations, one is that the milk itself is insufficient, and the other is that there is milk, but it is not smooth.
No matter what the situation is, Ye Fei is confident that this peanut and pork knuckle soup will help him a lot.
With everything ready, Ye Fei started to do it directly.
The first is to deal with the trotters.
The food of pig's trotters is very attractive to men, women and children, because this food is rich in collagen, and eating it can beautify the skin, so it is also called beauty hoof.
It is precisely because pig's trotters are loved by many people, so many unscrupulous businessmen in the market start to make a fuss about it in order to earn more money.
So when choosing pig's trotters, how can we choose the best and freshest pig's trotters? There are many ways, but the main ones are smelling, looking, touching, weighing and cooking.
Smell means smelling the smell of pig's trotters. A fresh high-quality pig's trotter often has a little fishy smell, and some of them are very clean and even have no smell, while low-quality pig's trotters will smell of some chemicals. , such as hydrogen peroxide.
After the trotters are soaked in hydrogen peroxide, they will become white and big. Many people are deceived by the appearance of this kind of trotters. This kind of trotters cannot be eaten at all.
Look, it depends on the color of the pig's trotters. As I said before, the pig's trotters treated with chemicals are very attractive in appearance, white and fat. In addition, after being soaked in chemicals, the hoof petals will turn outward. Separated, and the color of the normal pig's hoof is not so good-looking, some are slightly yellow, and the hoof petals are also tight.
When you touch it, you can feel the elasticity of the pig’s trotters. The soaked trotters look big, but the meat is very loose and soft to the touch. If it is too much, there will be a kind of stickiness on the trotters due to the soaking time for too long. sticky feeling,
Good trotters feel firm, elastic and feel good to the touch.
Weighing is mainly to feel the weight of the pig's trotters. There are pig bones in the pig's trotters. High-quality pig's trotters feel heavy in the hand, while low-quality pig's trotters will reduce the weight a lot.
The last step is to cook. Good pig’s trotters will give off a rich aroma, while poor-quality pig’s trotters will taste weird. Some even go too far and use artificial pig’s trotters to deceive customers.
Therefore, as long as you can be careful when buying, you will generally not be fooled.
Ye Fei knew that the system would definitely not give him an expired or chemically soaked pig's trotter, because this pig's trotter was original, that is to say, it was a pig's trotter that hadn't even lost its hair.
Looking at the fluffy pig's trotters on the plate, Ye Fei said with emotion: "System, is this really good? Don't you have pig's trotters that have lost their hair? I'm just making a soup for a golden retriever. It's useful. Is it so troublesome?"
The system said in a lukewarm voice: "The host should know that every time you cook a delicacy, you can't look at the person who eats it. A truly excellent chef doesn't care who the food is for, but only Concerned about how to make the best food, the pig's trotter soup, the host should not only know how to make it, but also know how to deal with the pig's trotters, so the pig's hair needs to be disposed of by the host himself."
Ye Fei rolled his eyes, your uncle, if you don't give up your hair, don't let it go, and you are so tall.
You don't want to return? I quit!
Isn't it just getting rid of pig hair? It's not that I haven't plucked long-haired ingredients.
Ye Fei knows that there are several ways to remove the pig hair from the pig's trotters, but three are the most commonly used.
The first is to use rosin to depilate, which is to melt the rosin in a pot. After the temperature is suitable, put the pig's trotters in the rosin, let the rosin cool and solidify, and then knock the rosin off with something, so that the pig's trotters The pig hair was pulled out.
However, the disadvantage of this method is that the rosin does not taste like the rosin in rosin pork. The solid rosin contains substances harmful to the human body. After using this rosin to remove the pig hair, the harmful substances will adhere to it. On the pig's trotters, it is not good for the body after eating.
The second is to scald the pig's feet with boiling water, and then use an iron brush or a scraper to remove the pig hair. This is very green, but it is a bit troublesome.
The third is to burn the pig’s hair with fire. You must use a big fire, a fierce fire, because the big fire can burn the pig’s hair at the fastest speed, and minimize the damage to the meat of the pig’s trotters. If you use medium and small fires, When the pig hair is burned off, the outermost pigskin of the pig's trotter is almost ready to eat.
Ye Fei chose the scalding method, which is the most troublesome method, but also the greenest and most harmless method.
He boiled half a pot of water in a boiling water pot, and when the water temperature was 70 or 80 degrees, he first took out some in a bowl, put the peanuts in it and soaked them, then put the pig's trotters in the pot, and boiled them for a while. I fished it out and put it in a big bowl, then took a steel brush and brushed it up.
There are a few gaps on the pig's trotters, and the hair in the gaps is difficult to deal with, but fortunately, Ye Fei's current state of mind has reached a very strong state, and he is very patient.
It took nearly 20 minutes for Ye Fei to clean the hair on the pig's trotter, rinse it under the faucet, then put the pig's trotter on the cutting board, took a back knife, and cut the pig's trotter into small pieces , placed on a plate.
After finishing these, Ye Fei poured out the water in the pot, replaced it with new water, put the cut pig's feet in and boiled.
This is to remove excess fat and blood on the trotters, and at the same time remove part of the fishy smell of the trotters.
After boiling the water for seven or eight minutes, Ye Fei removed a layer of white foamy fat on the water surface, boiled it for a while, and took out the pork trotters.
After the scallions and ginger were chopped, two big red dates were cut apart, and the grasses were cleaned before taking out a casserole.
Whether it is soup or porridge, if you want to achieve the best state, casserole or earthen pot are the most ideal.
When Ye Fei used to cook seafood porridge for nourishing the stomach and detoxifying, he used a casserole. The porridge was really fragrant, and today he used a casserole to cook soup for the golden retriever.
Clean the casserole and put it on the stove, then put the pig's trotters and soaked peanuts in it, put the onion, ginger, red dates and Tongcao in it, add water until the pig's trotters are just submerged, and cover it Start a fire.
After the water in the casserole boils, switch to a low heat and cook slowly.
Just like the system said, although Ye Fei is making soup for golden retrievers now, he still follows the strictest steps to make this soup.
After the small fire had been simmering for about forty minutes, just as the soup was almost ready, Xiaopi ran in from the outside and circled around Ye Fei. It was obvious that the little guy was in a hurry.
Ye Fei kicked it and said, "What's the rush? Don't you know you can't rush it when you're cooking?"
Xiaopi whimpered, squatted aside and didn't go out, just waited there.
After a while, white and fragrant mist began to emerge from the edge of the lid of the casserole.
Ye Fei raised his nose and sniffed it, feeling that he was a little hungry. If it wasn't for the golden retriever, he would have eaten the pot of soup.
He took a white gauze, moistened it under the tap, and then folded it a few times to cushion it. Ye Fei lifted the lid of the casserole, and immediately the fragrant mist rushed out, and the aroma became stronger.
Ye Fei looked into the pot, and saw that the soup in the pot was boiling, and the red jujubes were undulating in the soup, like a red girl bathing in the stream, and the tender white grasses were like white elves, Floating next to the red dates.
Pieces of pig's trotters have been cooked through, and with the tumbling of the water, you can see that these pig's trotters are trembling slightly, like pieces of extremely soft jelly, and peanuts are evenly distributed on the pig's feet. Beside the hooves, there are like countless stars.
The soup in the pot is not milky white, but a clear soup, but on the clear soup, dots of oil droplets are constantly swirling and moving.
Ye Fei licked his lips, resisted not drinking, put the lid on the casserole, and turned off the fire directly.
Only then did he take a large porcelain bowl from the side, and pour all the peanut and pig's trotter soup in a casserole into it.
Seeing this scene, Xiaopi jumped up from the ground, barking.
Ye Fei ignored it, but put the soup directly into a storage compartment, and said: "Don't let it cool down, you want to scald your wife to death?"
Xiaopi: "......... woo woo~~~"
The soup bowl was left in the storage compartment for five or six minutes, Ye Fei took it out, then he lowered his head to taste it, added a little more salt in it, and then went out with the soup bowl.
Xiao Pi ran out a long time ago and led Ye Fei in front. The little guy seemed afraid that Ye Fei would not find a place.
Following Xiaopi to the haystack by the pond, Ye Fei put down the soup bowl, then turned on the flashlight on his phone, and he saw the golden retriever had stood up.
It's just that although it is standing, its mental state is really too bad. Its eyes are dull, its golden fur is messy and dirty, and even its four legs are trembling non-stop. It seems that it is also trying hard to persevere. .
The golden retriever saw Ye Fei put a large bowl of food on the ground that was still slightly steaming, and moved its nose. It smelled a very wonderful aroma. After this aroma entered its stomach, the golden retriever felt hungry. It rushed out after a while, and it couldn't help but licked its tongue, but it didn't dare to come forward.
Ye Fei knew that the golden retriever was afraid of him, so he gently pushed the soup bowl forward with his feet, and said, "Eat it."
The golden retriever looked at Ye Fei again, then at the soup bowl, and finally at Xiaopi.
Xiaopi jumped and whined, as if he was urging the golden retriever to eat quickly. What made Ye Fei even more strange was that this snack food person was usually very greedy when he saw the food he made, but today he faced This guy didn't grab this fragrant peanut and pig's trotter soup.
"Damn, don't dogs know how to be humble?" Ye Fei saw this situation for the first time, and it really opened his eyes.
The golden retriever finally walked forward slowly, and every step seemed to be very strenuous.
It came to the soup basin, took another look at Ye Fei, saw that Ye Fei didn't intend to hit it, then slowly lowered its head, and began to lick the soup with its tongue...
