Return To 1977 Chapter 750: The best bomb in the world
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
The honey-roasted chicken tastes really good, but Hong Yanwu left a big drumstick for Shui Xiaoying, and he and Quanzi shared the rest, which was a bit unsatisfactory.
But it doesn't matter. I have to say that Hong Yanwu is really lucky.
A few days later, it was the birthday of the factory director Yang Youwei.
Director Yang specially ordered a dish, which was the "salt and pepper shrimp" that made Hong Yan's martial soul dream about it and was amazing and unforgettable the first time he tasted it.
So "Zhang Dashao" took advantage of the situation and blew up an extra portion, which satisfied Hong Yanwu's long-cherished wish.
This time it’s still not cheap, twenty shrimps still cost thirty yuan.
But even at this price, Hong Yanwu has to admit that it is really worth it!
Because you must know that the taste of a dish is actually the interaction between ingredients, feeling, atmosphere and taste.
Once an element is lost or changed, people will feel that the taste has changed, and maybe they won’t feel so magical next time they eat it.
But if one is skilled in craftsmanship to a certain extent, he can overcome this to the greatest extent.
Obviously, "Zhang Dashao" is such a person.
The "salt and pepper shrimp" he made again tasted exactly the same as last time in the opinion of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan.
Even on a hot day, the two of them held the plates with their hands and squatted in the shade outside the kitchen to eat, but they still succeeded in indulging in the crispy and refreshing feeling.
This time they even deepened their understanding, and the two of them more clearly felt the difference between this "salt and pepper shrimp" and ordinary fried food.
That is, it actually makes people feel light.
Yes!
The fried shrimp made by Zhang Dashao has neither thick dough nor heavy oil that can’t stop leaking, but a thin layer of dough.
Not boring! Not boring at all!
Not only taste and smell, but also vision.
As I watched the "salt and pepper shrimp" being picked up one by one from the plate, there was actually no oil at the bottom of the plate.
Ordinary people may not feel anything, but anyone who has ever exploded something will understand that this is definitely a miraculous miracle.
But this still only reflects half of the methods of "Zhang Dashao".
The strangest thing is actually the texture of shrimp meat inside the dough.
It is extremely fragrant and tender, soft and white.
You must know that this is fried food. Not only is the flavor of the shrimp not masked by deep frying, but it is surprisingly rich.
So the taste formed by the intersection of the inside and outside is a soft and full after a crisp "click", and then add salt and pepper to enhance the spirit and sensitivity of the tongue to the extreme.
This is the essence. It is obviously frozen shrimp, but it can taste like fresh shrimp.
It is no exaggeration to say that such an extremely delicious taste has completely broken through the limitations of this specific cooking method.
How did "Zhang Dashao" do it? From common sense, this kind of smell should not exist!
Hong Yanwu was too curious about this question. I couldn't hold it back anymore, so I decided to ask after lunch time.
He had no hope at first. The old guy guarded him like a thief every day. How could he say that?
Unexpectedly, just because his question was on point, it was like hitting "Zhang Dashao's" itchy flesh.
The old guy was very happy and actually answered.
How did you do it?
The secret is actually four words, "heat" and "seasoning".
Don’t look at these four simple words, it’s really hard to do them.
It’s just like that song goes, “Hey egg fried rice, the simplest but also the most difficult.”
What exactly is the difficulty?
"Zhang Dashao" said so himself.
"Did you know that water and oil do not mix? The key to fried shrimp is to control the moisture in the shrimp meat. To put it bluntly, the outside of the shrimp is fried, and the inside is steamed by the water forced out by the hot oil. In fact, the shrimp is cooked The most delicious moment is the moment when it changes between half-cooked and well-cooked. The trick to this dish is that when you take it out and put it on a plate for you to eat, the heat of the shrimp is right in between. , at the right point."
"To achieve this, the oil must be at just the right temperature. It only takes a few tens of seconds to put the oil in the pan. The earlier it sticks, the later it dries. If it is not warm enough or too hot, the taste will be ruined. To determine the specific heat, just hold it in your mouth You can't explain it. If you want to understand, you have to stand in front of the oil pan and fry every day. Only when you can understand what the oil is saying to you and understand the expression of the oil bubbles. Maybe you can feel it."
"Taste, you say? You have to pickle it in advance. It's difficult for those who don't know it, but it's not difficult for those who know it. Seasoning is what our northern cuisine is best at. Why do you say that? Because the north is different from the south, and there are no fresh products all year round. . What should we do? We have to make up for it from the mouth of the spoon. Even if the ingredients have lost their flavor and taste dull, the chef must make them delicious. ”
"So chefs in the north have a special skill called 'flavor changing'. From this perspective, there is no ingredient that cannot be cooked. A truly good cook can make even the worst ingredients delicious. Make frozen shrimp What’s the taste of fresh shrimp? You have to make beef into mutton, tofu into chicken, and potatoes and tofu skin into ribs.”
"Of course, there are more ways to do it here. The combination of taste is the most exquisite. The basic five flavors pay attention to the harmony, sweet, sour, bitter, pungent, salty, which comes first, what is the dosage, and how it relates to water and fire. If you make a slight mistake in matching, you will be wrong by a thousand miles.”
"Then what should we do? There is spirituality in this, and you need to have a good master to teach you, but the most important thing is to think on your own and try and practice hard. People are not afraid of stupidity or poor understanding. The key is to have the spirit to do anything. Son, that is to try every means to fight and strive to make the next time better than the previous one..."
Listen, these words are soaked in nothing but sweat day after day and never-ending enthusiasm and persistence.
This also reminds Hong Yanwu of a character in the movie-Forrest Gump.
In this movie, most smart people often become losers in life, but Forrest Gump leads a life that seems to be a mess, but he always succeeds.
How does this look like an achievement that a fool with an IQ of only 75 can achieve?
But what is the reality? Not ridiculous at all!
Because Forrest Gump is stupid, but every time he does something, he always puts all his energy and focus on one point.
It is Silly’s simplicity and resilience that makes him what he is.
This is something that most smart people lack. But it is something that anyone who can stand at the top of any industry must have.
Taking the people Hong Yanwu knows as an example, Master Yu is like this, "Old Saury" is like this, Tailor Su is like this, Li Fu is like this, and the old carpenter Wang Hanping is like this, isn't it?
There are also Mr. Shan and Shou Jingfang. Now there is such an additional "Zhang Dashao".
This kind of energy that spends a lifetime honing skills and striving for perfection has a special word called "craftsman spirit."
This is the secret of success and the key to respect.
This can even be said to be the true spiritual pillar for our vast country to have a five-thousand-year civilization.
For this reason, Hong Yanwu couldn't help but be in awe, and couldn't help but say something.
"You are so amazing, you have done a simple thing to the extreme, that is, turning decay into magic! This is probably called 'skill to the extreme, almost Tao'. Let me see, this dish of yours, It can be called the ‘best bomb in the world’!”
Unexpectedly, his heartfelt praise would have the same magical effect as "Zhang Dashao's" dish.
After hearing this, "Zhang Dashao" not only laughed heartily for the first time, but also later gave Hong Yanwu ten yuan.
"Okay, boy, I won't give you this dish for free. Just because of the two questions you asked, just because you can say the words 'skills to the extreme, almost Tao', you are considered a Eater. This dish will cost you twenty yuan from now on. If you want to eat it, I will cook it for you..."
However, Hong Yanwu was so surprised that he still had not recovered from his surprise. The words that followed "Zhang Dashao" made him even more impressed.
"But I have agreed not to talk about being the best in the world anymore. Such flattery will make people laugh. There is no limit to art. There are so many spoon-wielding people in the world, and everyone is just striving to pursue the peak of cooking skills. But no one knows where the highest point is. I would be a fool to think that I am the first, and your excitement is actually unnecessary, because this is what I have been doing for decades. If you still don’t do it right, it’s a sin. Even the next time should be better than this time..."
Hey, this old man is arrogant, but he is not arrogant.
And they do have the strength and capital.
Obviously if there is any master, it must be someone like this.
That is a person who never thinks that he has done his best, but still pursues a better state and continues to improve.
It is definitely not the successful people of later generations who brag about themselves every day in the media, pay attention to their origins, and never take action, but they have a lot of names, participate in award-winning activities, and recruit many disciples.
