Chapter 971 Daughter feeds and sends guests away(1/2)
Chicken porridge and pomegranate bread should have belonged to two dishes.
They can all be regarded as classic dishes among Huaiyang cuisine.
Chicken porridge is to smash the chicken into a meat paste, sifting it into very delicate minced meat, and then use the minced chicken to cook it into rice-like porridge in the clear chicken soup.
Pomegranate bread is made of egg white crust and then stuffed with stuffing to make buns.
Each of these two dishes is a very exquisite dish, and of course it can also be regarded as a staple food.
And Su Quansheng combined these two things at the beginning.
At the state banquet, he finally served chicken porridge in a small bowl and placed a small pomegranate bag in it.
When presented to guests, it will be very stunning, as beautiful as a bowl of lotus seeds.
Therefore, such a dish also received a lot of praise at the state banquet hosted by Su Quansheng, and even won domestic and foreign awards.
Feng Yifan actually made these two dishes before, but he did not combine the two dishes.
Today, he also followed his father-in-law's memories and made these two dishes with his father-in-law as required.
The father-in-law and son-in-law were also busy in the kitchen.
For chicken porridge, you must first smash the chicken into mud with the back of a knife. At the same time, during the smashing process, you need to place a piece of fresh pig skin between the chopping board and the chicken, so that you can avoid any odor on the chopping board. When chopping the chicken, it will remain in the chicken, affecting the taste of the final dish.
This is also the reason why this dish cannot be broken directly.
The process of chopping chicken is also a very test of the chef's knife skills and patience.
When Feng Yifan went upstairs to serve the dishes, he had already prepared the chicken paste in advance.
After my father-in-law comes back, he can’t do it directly, but he needs to make a pomegranate bag first.
This time the pomegranate bag is also different from what Feng Yifan made at home before.
In order to improve the pomegranate bag to a higher level, Su Quansheng also replaced it with some high-end ingredients.
Such as sea cucumbers, deer tendons, and so on.
It can be said that it will enhance the taste of the pomegranate bag to a higher level.
Of course, these things are processed in advance and need to be processed before they can be wrapped in the egg skin.
Feng Yifan also prepared everything in advance.
Then, Su Jinrong personally fryed and cut each one into small pieces.
This process must be cut into diced pieces without chopping them.
Of course, in order to increase the taste, in addition to high-end ingredients, some diced pork should also be added to provide oil to moisturize various high-end ingredients.
When stir-frying in this way, you cannot be seasoned with heavy taste like making a slim filling in a three-dip bag.
Instead, it can only be made with clear soup and seasoned with salt, sugar and pepper.
Only in this way can the fillings be kept as the original taste of various ingredients.
After the frying is finished, wrap the filling into the spread egg skin.
When wrapping, Su Jinrong also needs to control the size of the egg skin. He must wrap enough filling and tie the egg skin tightly.
After finally tying the green onions, place them in a cage to steam.
Feng Yifan also put soaked dried lotus leaves under the cage.
This will make the pomegranate wrap come out with a lotus fragrance.
This is also a little original creation made by Feng Yifan himself.
Seeing this, Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Yifan still has an idea. He can think of steaming lotus leaves on it, which really makes the taste even more unique."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Dad, I'm just a sudden idea. If you think it's not suitable, you must say it."
Su Jinrong nodded: "It's great, why did you suddenly lose your confidence today? Doesn't this look like Chef Feng's character?"
Feng Yifan laughed immediately after hearing this: "Hahaha, Dad, you can't call me Chef Feng, I can't afford to be it."
Everyone in the kitchen laughed as they heard it.
While steaming pomegranate bread, Su Jinrong also began to cook chicken porridge.
When cooking chicken porridge, you must first boil the clear soup and then thicken the soup over low heat.
The thickening step is very important. The sauce cannot be too thick, but it cannot be too thin. The sauce must be kept, and at the same time, the chicken paste can be stirred and solidified.
After the thickening was completed, Su Jinrong began to pour the chopped chicken into the pot.
At this time, keep the pot from boiling, and then pour the chicken bit by bit.
As the chicken puree was stirred quickly, it quickly formed into small particles.
It really seemed like it turned into grains of rice in the pot.
In a blink of an eye, an incredible situation came out, and the soup and chicken paste in the pot turned into a pot of white porridge.
It looks almost exactly the same as white porridge, and there is no difference at all.
At this time, the pomegranate bread was steamed there.
Next, use a small bowl to serve the chicken porridge one by one, and then put a pomegranate bag into each bowl.
In this way, this chicken porridge pomegranate bag is completed.
In small bowls, whether it is chicken porridge like white porridge or white pomegranate bags, they look very fresh and elegant, without any gorgeous decoration, and are extremely light and simple.
But anyone who has seen Feng Yifan and his father-in-law knows that such a bowl really brings a lot of effort.
Feng Yifan then placed bowls and bowls on a large tray and followed his father-in-law upstairs.
At this time, there were no customers in the restaurant, and Feng Yifan also told everyone to start cleaning.
However, when Feng Yifan and his father-in-law went upstairs, everyone in the kitchen gathered together to discuss.
"Wow, this bowl of porridge is really amazing."
"It really looks no different from Baizhu. If I hadn't watched the production process with my own eyes, I wouldn't have any doubts about it."
"Yes, I won't doubt it either."
Lin Ruifeng was relatively calm: "Actually, what the master has done before is not like this today, but he did make it for us to eat as breakfast."
Luo Yu exclaimed after hearing this: "What? Did you cook it for breakfast?"
Chen Xu was also a little incredible: "It's so luxurious that the chef's life is actually making chicken porridge for breakfast."
Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "Actually, it can't be said to be extravagant, but the method is indeed very labor-intensive, but the ingredients are not very high-end."
Lin Ruifeng also said: "Yes, when Master made breakfast before, he wouldn't use such good high-end clear soup."
Shi Jiahui said: "Of course not. Such a good high-end clear soup will not be easily used in a big hotel."
Katherine said: "But even if it is made with ordinary soup, the whole process is really exaggerated."
Luo Yu said: "Yes, yes, it's really a problem."
At this time, Su Ruoxi walked over and said, "Actually, your chefs were mainly for their daughters to eat, and we all benefited from it."
Lin Ruifeng agreed and said, "Yes, Master made it for Ruoruo to eat."
Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "It turns out that she is a mad girl who loves women."
Everyone in the kitchen laughed.
Afterwards, Shi Jiahui also asked everyone to start preparing to end today's business and cleaning.
The last table of dine-drinking guests left, Su Liancheng and Fang Lin gave each other a look together, and everyone in the kitchen bowed to see them off, and tonight's business was officially over.
After the business ended, Su Liancheng called a few waiters to go outside and cleaned the door first.
Then he closed the door first, which also announced that Su Ji's business ended tonight.
After closing the door, everyone in Su Jili officially started cleaning.
At the same time, Feng Yifan and his father-in-law came upstairs and placed bowls of chicken porridge and pomegranate bags in front of everyone.
Seeing the chicken porridge placed in front of you, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei three little girls who had eaten it, immediately exclaimed: "Oh, it's chicken porridge."
After hearing this, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhu reacted and took a closer look.
After looking at it, Mr. Zhu said, "It's really a chicken porridge and pomegranate bun? This dish was at the state banquet, but it was the last one for each person. Many foreign guests were very happy."
Mr. Zhang said: "Yes, Master Su made this dish so amazing at once."
Zhuang Daozhong said: "This dish won a grand prize at the beginning."
Both old men also nodded and said, "Yes, I won the gold medal in the World Food Competition."
Zhuang Daozhong said again: "Yifan also did it in Su Ji before. At that time, he treated this as a breakfast for his family, and I remember it."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Yes, it's mainly for dad and Ruoruo to eat."
Then he explained: "Of course, what I made for my family before is definitely not so good. The soup is not very high-end soup, and the pomegranate bag will not be filled with so many fillings with high-quality ingredients this time."
Zhuang Daozhong said: "Delicious food does not require very high-end ingredients. The key is the chef's heart."
