Chapter 501 Dark cuisine again? (Seeking the moon at the end of the month(1/2)
Usually people go outside or order takeout when eating crayfish, but there are also finished products bought from supermarkets or online. After getting it, you just need to put them in the pot and heat them up.
But some people are more diligent and are willing to go to the vegetable market to buy some live crayfish and cook them on their own.
But if you make it yourself, it will take most of the time to clean the crayfish.
After all, eating at home is definitely not as good as going outside, so it is naturally more particular. Remove everything that should be removed and wash everything that should be washed.
After the old ones processed the shrimp, it was already past ten:20.
The whole process did not stop for a moment, and every crayfish was given a sufficient sole massage, and even the brushes were blistered.
When Chen Nian put all the washed crayfish back into a basin and planned to wash it, An Hongdou had already appeared at the door.
"Chef Chen, I'm here, what to eat tonight?"
An Hongdou asked as soon as he entered the door.
Chen Nian was delighted, raised his head and looked at the door. He saw that although An Hongdou was wearing casual clothes, the makeup on her face had not been taken off.
"Cook something delicious for you tonight, and you'll know after a while." Chen Nian raised his head and said with a smile, "But why haven't you removed your makeup yet?"
"Isn't this afraid that you will be in a hurry? I said that I would come over at half past ten. If I took off my makeup there and came over again, wouldn't I be late?" An Hongdou put down her bag and stood outside the kitchen, talking to Chen Nian through the glass.
Then she saw the crayfish.
"Wow, will you eat crayfish tonight?" An Hongdou looked happy. "I haven't eaten crayfish for a long time, and I'm really a little greedy."
"It's not just this." Chen Nian said mysteriously.
But soon after Aangan washed the processed crayfish, he planned to start making it, but before that, Aangan planned to fry a seasoning.
As a Sichuan chef, there is no problem with stir-frying crayfish base or hot pot base at home.
Seasonings such as onion, ginger, garlic, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, Erjingtou, dried chili, chili noodles, Pixian bean paste, etc. are put into the oil pan. After the red oil in the pan comes out, Aged will pour the spices into the pan and then start stir-frying. Then the seasonings such as salt, chicken essence, MSG, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, etc. will continue to increase the flavor.
Finally, Chen Nian poured another can of beer in, stir-fry for two more times, and then cut the juice over high heat.
"It smells so good. How long will it take to prepare the meal? I'm so hungry now..." An Hongdou couldn't help it and moved a stool to the kitchen and asked.
"It will take a while." Chen Nian said, "I'll bear it for a while, and then I'll be ready after a while. Chen Nian said, and found a small basin, took out six or seven crayfish from the pot and put them in it.
"Come on, eat this first, and put your stomach on."
"Okay, thank you, boss!" An Hongdou was already so greedy. She just saw Chen Nian being frying crayfish, she wanted to taste a few, but she was embarrassed to say it.
But unexpectedly, after just entering the kitchen, Chen Nian did this directly after saying a few words.
"This damn useless tacit understanding has increased again!"
While thinking, An Hongdou happily held the crayfish to the place where aged food was usually prepared and tasted it carefully.
After taking out the crayfish, Chen Nian first picked out the shrimp and put it in a basin, then filtered the remaining soup with a sieve to remove all kinds of seasoning residues and the shrimp legs that fell during the frying process.
Finally, it was poured back into the crayfish.
The head has been removed before the ageing, so the crayfish now should be considered a shrimp tail strictly.
Then Chen Nian came to a corner of the kitchen and hugged a mysterious jar.
"What is this?" An Hongdou asked curiously.
"This, this is a baby. I have been doing it for a long time, and it should be almost done recently." Chen Nian said as he turned on the air change system in the kitchen.
Then carefully put the jar on the table and then opened it, and a violent stench suddenly came to your nose!
"Stinky tofu?" An Hongdou immediately remembered the scene when they first met.
"Yes, this is what I started to make again last month. It's just the time for these days." Chen Nian said as he grabbed the stinky tofu from the inside and put it into a bowl, then closed the lid tightly and put it back in that corner.
Then come back and add wide oil to the pot, then put the stinky tofu in and fry until the skin is crispy and uneven, then take it out and set aside for later use.
The fried stinky tofu doesn't smell that bad, but the smell of stinky tofu just now spreads the room.
Just as Chen Nian was busy, he suddenly heard a voice coming from his ears: "Come on, open your mouth."
Chen Nian subconsciously opened his mouth, but when he realized it, a peeled shrimp tail was put into his mouth.
Then when Chen Nian lowered her eyes, she saw that An Hongdou's slender and white hands were still covered with red oil.
He didn't know what happened, but Chen Nian didn't dare to dream in this kind of scene even if he was in a dream...
The shrimp tail was fried with aged spicy and fresh fragrance, but at this moment, he could no longer taste any taste in his mouth. His brain seemed to be hit by lightning and turned into a blank space.
But his cheeks turned red.
"Is it delicious? I just ate crayfish and thought that I had peeled one for you before I could eat it." An Hongdou's voice sounded again.
"It's delicious." Chen Nian didn't know how he said this, and he didn't expect An Hongdou to peel the crayfish with his own hands and feed it to him!
"She is definitely clicking me!" Chen Nian couldn't help but shout in his heart, "She likes me!"
A strange feeling is slowly sprouting in my heart.
"What do you think it tastes like?" An Hongdou asked again. Although her actions were intentional just now, the idea just popped up suddenly. Then she did it. But after feeding the old crayfish, she couldn't stand still. She had to say something, so she had to speak quickly.
"So sweet..." Chen Nian blurted out.
"What?" An Hongdou was stunned for a moment, and did not react for a while.
"No, I mean it's quite delicious. Most of the crayfish I bought before were made with seasonings. This is the first time I fry it myself. I didn't expect it to taste really good." Chen Nian said quickly after asking for help.
"So that's how it is." An Hongdou suddenly realized, but she was still a little puzzled about what Chen Nian is doing now. "But why did you suddenly start making stinky tofu? Is it a snack special session today?"
Chen Nian finally recovered, but now he didn't dare to turn his head to see An Hongdou, and even turned his head to the other side as much as possible.
Even if he didn't look in the mirror, he knew that his cheeks were hot now, so he couldn't let An Hongdou see what he looked like.
Although I had some guesses in my mind just now, under such circumstances, no matter who it is, he would definitely think so. Chen Nian has always had a clear idea of himself, so he quickly calmed down. As long as the other party did not say it clearly, everything was possible.
"The snack special... is actually similar. If you have to say that, it should be a special snack special." Chen Nian said.
An Hongdou nodded, and became more and more expectant.
But at the same time, he also saw Chen Nian blushing. After all, with such a large space in the kitchen, how could An Hongdou not see it?
"This man is so cute when he blushed." An Hongdou thought so in his heart, only regretting that she didn't hold her cell phone just now and could not take a photo of Chen Nian's blushing look.
Chen Nian is now completely unable to figure out what An Hongdou means, but he knows that as long as he encounters a situation that he cannot figure out, the best way is to keep his troops still.
Keep cooking.
After frying the stinky tofu, the old man also put it aside.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Nian took out two packs of snail noodles from under the stove, took out the noodles, and put them in the water that had been burned on the stove when the stinky tofu was just now.
At this time, the water was boiling. After the vermicelli was put in, Ageden covered the pot and started cooking.
At this time, he took out four more eggs, beat two into a bowl, beat them evenly with chopsticks, and then poured them into the hot oil pan.
Under the action of high-temperature oil, the eggs began to expand rapidly. After one side was completely fixed, Chen Nian turned the eggs with a shovel. You can see that the side of the turned eggs had been fried to brown, and you can feel the fluffy in them just by looking at them with the naked eye.
Soon after this fried egg was prepared, Chen Nian beat two eggs into the bowl again and continued to fry in the pot with the same steps just now.
Ke An Hongdou was even more confused when she saw this: "Can you eat snail noodles tonight and then just take crayfish and stinky tofu?"
She had seen many fried eggs on the Internet before, and today after seeing Chen Nian do this, she naturally guessed it.
But Chen Nian still shook her head.
"No, no, no...let the bullets fly for a while."
Then Chen Nian took out two tomatoes to peel and remove the stems, cut them into small pieces and put them in a small pot. Then he took out a bag of hot pot base from the refrigerator and cut them into about a quarter of them and put them in.
Next is the various ingredients in snail noodles and the sauce packs inside.
And the stinky tofu that just fried.
Chen Nian kept moving his hands, but his thinking was still brainstorming. Fortunately, these steps were not difficult, and it was nothing more than putting things into the pot.
An Hongdou became more and more confused, but she never asked, because she also wanted to see what Chen Nian wanted to do.
After making these, the powder that Aged just cooked into the pot was almost done.
Open the pot, then remove the vermicelli first, and then pour the hot water into the pot.
Afterwards, Chen Nian poured the prepared crayfish into the pot. After the three pounds of crayfish were finished, only a little more than one pound was left. At this moment, he was pounced on it, looking particularly attractive.
But that wasn't over. Chen Nian came to the other side again. The pot also had the fat intestines that had been braised before. He used a colander to pick up half a spoon and placed it neatly next to the crayfish.
Finally, Chen Nian spread the fried eggs that had just been made on the top of the pan.
"Hongdou, please help me. There is an induction cooker under the table behind. Please help me get it outside."
"Oh, okay." An Hongdou just looked at Chen Nian's operation and felt that he was already stupid. If these things are put together, can they taste delicious?
I knew before that Aged Nian was very good at making dark dishes, and she had eaten them several times. Sometimes they were really delicious, but this time she felt that she liked to eat everything she put in, but she felt strange no matter how she put them together.
"Don't worry, I'm a restaurant owner, can I bring you something delicious?" Chen Nian signaled An Hongdou to rest assured, but An Hongdou couldn't feel at ease.
But at the same time, I was also thinking in my mind whether Chen Nian would also be testing this?
As we all know, aged food has a high cooking skills and the foods they make are delicious, not only from the south or the north, whether they are hot or cold dishes, whether they are steamed, cooked, or fried.
But perhaps in this man's heart, not only should he like the delicious food he cooks, but he also likes the bad food. This is called tolerance.
