Chapter four hundred and fortieth wine lees with meat

In the afternoon, several more people came to the store to look for Su Zifang.

The leader was Su Zifang's nephew Qiao Xin, followed by Yu Guan, next to him was He Zeng, and the other one turned out to be Zhang Yuxin.

I don’t know how the four of them got together.

After spending a few minutes figuring out the purpose of the four people's visit, Su Zifang was a little confused.

All four of them came to seek advice.

Su Zi was a little confused for a moment.

Qiao Xin came and let it go. After all, it was agreed upon. Her eyes fell on the other three people: "What's the situation with you?"

He said: "My father and senior brother asked me to come."

Tsk, I owe you the favor of left and right bows, and I still need to pay it back.

Yu Guan: "I heard from Master Qiao that Zi Fang's skills are getting better and better. My father came here to taste it and take a look."

Okay, this is just soy sauce, don’t worry about it.

In the end, Zhang Yuxin did not expect that so many people would come to Su Zifang, and she was a little shy: "Boss Su, Xiaoyu has always said that he likes your cooking. His birthday is coming soon, and I want to learn a dish when I go back."

Just cook it for him, if it’s inconvenient, forget it.”

Forget it, it's here.

Su Zifang still had some impression of Xiaoyu. He was a very well-behaved child, but his grandmother was not very good at it.

After thinking for a while, he looked at the three of them.

"There happens to be nothing going on in the afternoon, how about we come one by one?"

"Let me teach you how to make it first. After all, it is simpler. The other two are professional chefs. You won't understand if they talk too much. If you finish teaching it early, you still have time to practice."

Su Zifang looked at Zhang Yuxin and said.

"Ah, is that so?"

"Okay, thank you very much!"

Zhang Yuxin didn't expect that she was the first one, and she was a little excited.

After taking a few people back to his cooking table, Su Zifang looked at Zhang Yuxin: "What dish do you want to learn?"

"Pork braised with wine lees."

"Is it okay to stir-fry pork with distiller's grains? Xiaoyu said it was a dish that was included in the sweet meatballs last time. I also looked for it, but I missed a lot of steps and didn't learn it."

As he spoke, he lowered his head in embarrassment.

Su Zifang frowned slightly: "What a waste of meat?"

He had actually seen this dish, but it wasn't a tutorial, he just scanned it accidentally while supplementing the knowledge points of various cuisines.

If Zhang Yuxin hadn't mentioned it, he would probably still be dumped on Java Island by now.

"What's wrong? Boss Su? Is it difficult? Then forget it..."

Zhang Yuxin gave up habitually.

Su Zifang shook his head gently: "It's not difficult, but this dish is more complicated. If you are sure you want to learn it, you can prepare a video to avoid not being able to cook it later."

Sure enough, Su Zifang suddenly wondered if he could create a teaching video album and upload it to a short video platform.

Anyway, this is how I usually practice.

"You can ask Yang Qiong to write a script!"

At the front desk, Yang Qiong shivered and silently raised the air conditioner one degree: "Why is it suddenly cold?"

At the cooking table, other people didn't quite understand the braised pork with distiller's grains that Zhang Yuxin was talking about. Their little eyes had big question marks, but they were too embarrassed to ask out loud.

Su Zi glanced over, saw their curiosity, and explained.

"This dish is a specialty of Long Province. You may have never seen it. I only found out about this dish after reading the information."

"It's made from pork belly and fermented bean curd. It's a bit like braised pork with pickled vegetables but the taste is different. Some places also use red yeast rice, but here I make it simpler and just use fermented bean curd."

While talking, Su Zi prepared the ingredients.

A piece of pork belly that is about two palms long and one palm wide and six or seven centimeters thick, half a bowl of fermented bean curd, one ounce of high-strength white wine, and other condiments are all readily available on the table, and there is no need to prepare them specially.

"I'll do it first and you watch. If you don't understand anything during the video, just ask and I'll answer it for you in time so you don't forget it when you go back."

"Thank you, Boss Su."

Zhang Yu nodded gratefully.

The rest of the people were all veterans in the kitchen, so Su Zifang started cooking without further explanation.

Put the skin side of the pork belly into the pan and fry it. When the temperature rises, the pork skin will naturally sear and shrink.

"Boss Su, why do you need to roast the skin in the pot first?"

"Removal."

"Eighty to ninety percent of the pork belly on the market has pig hair on the skin that has not been removed. This treatment can make the pig hair easier to clean."

"understood!"

Zhang Yuxin nodded and took notes like a primary school student, and planned to go back and tell her mother-in-law this trick.

No wonder I often eat pork hair when cooking braised pork at home.

Use a knife to scrape one side of the roasted pig skin and remove all the black parts. Rinse it and blanch it in a pot. When it is cooked, remove it from cold water and cut it into chopstick-thick slices.

"Don't overcook it, otherwise it will be too rotten after steaming."

Su Zifang emphasized and started the next pickling work.

"The most important thing about wine-grained pork is marinating. Whether it tastes good or not depends on how well you marinate it!"

Su Zifang crushes the bean curd and pours the fermented bean curd into the basin for curing the meat, then adds dark soy sauce, five-spice powder, pepper powder, salt, sugar, and high-strength white wine.

"The purpose of adding white wine is to reduce the greasiness. This cannot be omitted. It must be high, preferably above 52 degrees."

Catch it evenly so that every piece of meat is covered with rotten meat, red and translucent, and especially appetizing.

"Is there something wrong with it? It's so red? It feels like Sudan red has been added."

Zhang Yuxin whispered.

Su Zifang:???

"This is the normal southern milk color. If you are worried, you can also use red yeast rice hair color, but it may not be that simple."

As both a woman, Qiao Xin knew what Zhang Yu was worried about and helped to explain.

"Okay." Zhang Yuxin quickly thanked her. Although she didn't know how to use red yeast rice for hair color, it was good to know that there would be no problem.

After finishing this, Su Zifang took a piece of tofu, cut it into the same thickness and height as the pork belly, and took another large bowl to start arranging it.

Place the pork belly on the bottom and half way through, replace with tofu slices and cover the entire bowl.

"Boss Su, the tofu is not colored and marinated." Zhang Yuxin reminded.

Su Zi let go and put the packed lees meat into the steamer: "No need to do this, because the tofu is at the bottom, and it will be dyed and colored automatically after it is steamed."

After that, turn the heat to maximum and start steaming.

"By the way, this dish needs to be eaten with lotus leaf pancakes. It has a richer texture. Anyway, we have made it here. I will teach you how to make the lotus leaf pancakes."

Su Zifang started kneading the dough as he spoke, and then finished everything from selecting flour to molding the lotus leaf cake, applying oil, and folding.

Put the lotus leaf cake into the pot and steam it together.

After another half hour, Su Zifang smelled the smell and took the steamer away from the stove and took it out of the pot.

Invert the pork with distiller's grains on a plate and sprinkle with a handful of chopped green onions.

A plate of tender, red, and appetizing braised pork with wine grains immediately appeared on the plate.

"Let's try it together."

When Su Zifang greeted everyone, he took the lead.

The lotus leaf cake is white and fat. Use chopsticks to separate it from the middle and add a piece of pork belly and a piece of tofu.

Take one bite, it's delicious and full of happiness!

Zhang Yuxin closed her eyes slightly, with an unstoppable smile on her face.
