Chapter 181 Subverting the perception of mutton
"Brother Yi, it's done."
"Brother Yi, we're done stripping."
The reports from the skinning team and the meat cutting team sounded almost at the same time.
Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai have finished peeling the red willow branches, and the smooth red willow branches are arranged neatly together.
Wu Lei also finished cutting the mutton leg meat into mahjong-sized pieces.
When Li Yi saw this, he waved his hand and said, "Through the flesh!"
Boom! Boom!
A plate of mutton leg meat and a plate of mutton tail fat cubes were put together.
Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai also brought over the iron picks and red willow picks.
"The meat should be pierced vertically so that it does not droop. First, pierce a piece of lean meat, then a piece of fat meat, and then pierce two pieces of lean meat."
Li Yi taught them how to pierce the meat, and soon, strings of mutton skewers, three thin and one fat, were neatly placed on the tray.
Taking an iron skewer, Li Yi stacked the sliced liver slices and the sheep tail oil slices together, with the sheep tail oil facing the outside, and then threaded them together on the skewer.
After putting on more than a dozen skewers, Li Yi stood up and signaled: "You guys put on your clothes first, I'll go bake these."
"good!"
Everyone was waiting for his words and nodded.
Carrying the plate of dressed meat skewers, Li Yi came to the stove.
Place the prepared barbecue grill on the stove and put some charcoal inside.
Li Yi picked up a piece of charcoal with a clip, turned on the stove fire, and it quickly burned red, then put it in the oven.
Soon, the charcoal was ignited and the temperature of the oven increased.
After spreading the ignited charcoal, Li Yi placed the skewered meat skewers on the oven, stacked them neatly, and turned to look at the soup bucket.
The temperature of the soup bucket has gradually risen, and it has begun to roll slightly in the middle, with a thin layer of foam floating on the edge.
The better the quality of the mutton, the less foam there will be. It can be seen that the meat quality of this sheep is absolutely the same.
After using a spoon to beat out the tiny bit of foam, Li Yi added some salt and threw in a few peppercorns and pepper into the soup bucket.
Good lamb doesn't need to be seasoned with too much seasoning at all.
There is no need for any of the onions, ginger, and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell.
Good mutton requires a handful of salt. As long as the mutton is good enough and seasoned with a handful of salt, it will make people want to eat it.
After finishing the foaming, Li Yi closed the lid of the soup bucket and turned down the heat slightly.
Then, he smelled a strong aroma of mutton.
Zhila!
That's the rich aroma of fat dripping on the charcoal fire.
The smell was like a drop of ink dropped into clear water, dissipating instantly.
Soon, everyone in the entire kitchen smelled it.
"Wow! It smells so good!"
Wu Lei exclaimed, raised his head, and looked at the stove.
Several other people also stretched their necks and watched eagerly.
"Don't worry, it's not healed yet!"
Li Yi returned to the stove, picked up the skewer, and looked at the downward part. It had just turned a little yellowish and had just begun to seep oil, while the upward part of the meat was still pink and tender.
Holding a handful of mutton skewers in one hand, Li Yi dipped the downward part left and right, letting the roasted fat smear on the upward part to avoid waste, and also smeared the meat skewers with a layer of oil.
, making it easier for the meat to lock in moisture.
Turning the meat skewers over and dipping them in oil, Li Yi controlled the heat of the barbecue freely.
Barbecue is the most primitive dish and the first dish learned by humans.
It is barbecue that distinguishes primitive humans from beasts and sets them on the road to the top of the food chain.
Barbecue is the simplest dish, you only need to grill the ingredients before you can eat it.
But barbecue is also the most complicated, because it represents the most essential heat.
The difference in thickness of ingredients is one centimeter more and one centimeter less.
The temperature change caused by one more piece of charcoal fire and one less piece of charcoal fire.
Baking for one second longer or less for a second will cause subtle but clear changes in the ingredients, thus affecting the texture and taste of the ingredients.
Regarding the skills here, although Li Yi has learned so many dishes, he dare not say that he has completely mastered the barbecue skills.
However, compared with ordinary chefs, his control over the heat is already at a master level.
As he flipped the meat skewers, drops of grease fell, and then turned into fragrant smoke and dispersed, making the kitchen full of swallowing sounds.
Finally, Wu Lei and the others couldn't sit still anymore, and they all came to the stove, staring at the barbecue in Li Yi's hand, their mouths watering.
"Are you okay? Brother Yi?"
Wu Leihou asked anxiously, not wanting to move his eyes away.
"Don't worry, there's still a little bit left."
Li Yi pinched some cumin and lightly sprinkled it on the barbecue.
When cumin powder is heated, its rich aroma explodes instantly.
“It smells so good!”
Liu Yifei couldn't help but let out a low cry, and then closed her mouth.
Her saliva was almost brought out.
"This cumin flavor is absolutely amazing, so refreshing."
Huang Xiaoming held his waist and felt that the little rice noodles he had eaten for lunch had turned into water, with not a drop left. His entire empty stomach was asking for food from him, wanting to fill the void with delicious mutton skewers.
"Is it almost done?"
Wu Lei smelled the tempting fragrance and was so anxious that he almost jumped up.
"immediately."
Li Yi grabbed the meat skewers with both hands, dipping them in each other's hands, letting the cumin powder evenly coat the meat skewers, and asked: "Do you want chili?"
"want!"
Everyone said in unison.
"Then it's slightly spicy."
Li Yi pinched a handful of chili peppers and sprinkled them on the meat skewers.
The thin chili pepper noodles fell on the sizzling and oily meat skewers, instantly melted in and hung on the meat skewers, adding a fiery color to the meat skewers.
"Are you okay? Are you okay?"
Wu Lei put his hands behind his head, clamped his head, and groaned.
"OK OK."
As he spoke, Li Yi picked up a pinch of salt and sprinkled it on the meat skewers, then dipped it in casually twice, took it off, put it on the tray, and complained: "Look at how anxious you are, let me
When the audience saw this, they thought I had starved you for three days and didn’t give you anything to eat!”
No one paid any attention to him. Everyone reached for the tray. Each person took a few skewers and finished dividing the meat skewers.
"Why don't you leave a bunch for me?"
Li Yi was helpless.
"Here, this string is for you."
Liu Yifei handed him the extra bunch in her hand.
Li Yi looked at Wu Lei, who was holding two skewers in his left hand and one in his right hand, stuffing them into his mouth. He shook his head, took the meat skewers from Liu Yifei, and said with a smile, "I'll grill them for you again."
"Siha! Phew!"
Wu Lei already grinned and took off a piece of mutton from the stick, sighed, and ate it into his mouth.
As soon as he took a bite, he was immediately conquered by the soft texture of the meat and the fresh and sweet juice that gushed out.
"Wow! So tender! So fragrant!"
He seemed to have been given an injection, his eyebrows were wrinkled, and he looked like he was in pain, but he was actually enjoying himself to the extreme.
Huang Xiaoming also ate a piece of meat, and then his eyes widened in surprise: "Why is this mutton so tender? Oh my god!"
The taste of this mutton completely subverted his understanding of mutton!
