Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 481 Autumn Rhyme Braised Chicken and Rice

"Autumn, autumn charm, what kind of dishes can better reflect the charm of autumn? And if it is too simple, it is estimated that points will be deducted..." Wang Yong was walking in the hunting ground and saw a group of deer from a distance. The meat is very good...

"Roasted venison...stewed venison with white fungus crown prince...steamed venison with seasonal vegetables...steamed venison with three ginseng...steamed venison with tomato..." Wang Yong tilted his head, and suddenly something flew by.

I thought it was a small bird, but after a closer look, I found out that it was not, it was actually a hazel pheasant!Wait, remember that this thing is in China, and most of it is distributed in the Northeast region. It is rumored that a small amount is distributed in Hebei, but there are some in Xuchang, isn't it too ridiculous? !

Even if this is a hunting ground, some wild animals can be raised, but the appearance of the hazel pheasant here still gives him a messy feeling.And this time, the chick seemed to have found a companion, foraging with a dozen other hazel hens.

"There is still another ethnic group?!" Wang Yong was speechless. Although later generations of hazel pheasants have gradually domesticated and artificially reproduced, it is still unacceptable for them to appear in Henan from the northeast.

But thinking about it, I don't think it's a strange thing.I remember reading a document before, saying that in the pre-Qin period, there were rhinos all over the country. By the Three Kingdoms period, there were only a few areas in Shennongjia and the Qinling Mountains in the northern part of the Yangtze River.There are many areas in the south of the Yangtze River.It was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that rhinos in China were truly extinct.

Rhino horn cups and rhino horn carvings have also existed since ancient times, and they may not all be imported.

Since there are rhinos, it is not surprising that there are hazel chickens, but I don’t know if there are hazel mushrooms. If there are, it is also a good choice to directly cook a small chicken stew with mushrooms!By the way, this dish is also very suitable for Qiu Yun's topic!

Thinking of this, Wang Yong immediately leaned over cautiously, picked up a few stones on the road, and when he was close to the group of grouse chickens, he threw the stones out suddenly, and at least four or five of them were stunned under the scattered flowers of the goddess, and then Wen Ming rushed over, pressed it firmly with the net bag, and grabbed it.

"My lord, are these juvenile chickens?" Wen Ming looked at the hazel chickens, "Are they a little smaller?"

"No, they're actually that big." Wang Yong shook his head, "It's not juvenile chickens, but hazel chickens! The dishes for this exam are the main ingredients! Let's continue to search and see if we can find them. Find matching mushrooms!"

"Can there be a matching saying for mushrooms?" Wen Ming heard this saying for the first time.

"Autumn! It's a good time to eat mushrooms. Speaking of which, it was about this time last year, and I came here with His Majesty." Wang Yong was a little emotional. At that time, he roasted matsutake mushrooms and ate them very happily. As a result, he was happy the next day I can't get up.

"Well, it's been a year in a blink of an eye..." Wen Ming nodded, he still knew the relationship between Wang Yong and His Majesty.This is not the daughter of the two of them, both are more than four months old.

After a pause, he continued to ask: "But what kind of mushrooms do you call matching?"

"Let me think about it..." Wang Yong began to think back, and thanks to his good memory, he was able to recall some, "It seems to be...umbrella-shaped, light khaki, and brown when old...Forget it, if you can't find it , it would be nice to find some matsutake..."

I remember that hazel mushrooms were also distributed in the north, northeast, Qinghai and Gansu in the previous life, Sichuan and Guangxi also seemed to be distributed, and Hebei also seemed to be found. The question is whether there are any in Henan... who knows? !
"The taste of matsutake is very strong, will it cover up the taste of hazel chicken?" Wen Ming still knows a thing or two.

"It's dried matsutake. If it's fresh matsutake, it will just extract the fresh and sweet taste of hazel chicken!" Wang Yong replied.

Wen Ming nodded, and then followed Wang Yong to look for matsutake everywhere, and found that there were many footprints under many pine trees, and there were traces of excavation on the ground. It seems that someone thought of matsutake as an ingredient, so they came to dig.

"This digging method is not very kind..." Wang Yong looked at it. With this digging method, matsutake will not grow here in the future. It is almost three feet of digging, and all spores are gone.

The chef cooks all things in the world, and at the same time benefits from all things in the world.A real chef will have an idea of ​​gratitude for the ingredients that give him a bite of food, and at the same time think that only in this way, the cooked food will be more delicious.

It may be a bit metaphysical, but in fact, it has something to do with the field of super chefs and their own taste.A strong idea can make the chef cook more carefully, so the quality of the material is preserved to the maximum extent, and even under the chef's cooking skills, the flavor beyond the original quality can be exerted.

And those who don't have awe in their hearts are often step-by-step and shoddy. As a result, even if they are made completely according to the recipe, the flavor and texture are far from those cooked by top chefs.

"It's just that the matsutake has been harvested almost, and there are only some old mushrooms that are more than three or four days old. If you use this thing to make soup, you will probably be deducted points..." Wen Ming looked around and searched for a long time. Did not see any fresh matsutake.

Of course, the hazel mushroom that Wang Yong asked for was of course not found, but seeing some mushrooms, it seemed that the other party didn't like it.

"Mushrooms... not as good as hazel mushrooms and matsutake, but the crispy and sweet taste is also very suitable for stewed chicken." Wang Yong muttered for a while, and then he saw a tree not far away, "Wait a minute, follow me Go over there!"

The two walked more than 200 meters and came to a tree, or several around them, all chestnut trees.The thorny chestnut fruit on the top has been cracked, revealing the brown chestnut inside.

"Chestnut...chestnut stewed chicken is also pretty good...wait a minute, why do I have to stew chicken?" Wang Yong thought for a while and began to meditate. A dish began to form in his mind.

"Wen Ming, help me, get some chestnuts down, you don't need much, about half a catty to a catty is enough!" Wang Yong ordered immediately, and then began to climb the tree.

"Okay!" Wen Ming nodded, and started to get busy. It took the two of them half an hour to pick about a catty of chestnuts, and then spent more than ten minutes picking mushrooms. In the reclaimed field, I picked some red and green peppers before returning to the rest area.

Other chefs here have already started cooking, and as expected, most of them are matsutake. This kind of fresh, sweet, fragrant and delicious ingredient has really become the first choice.In addition, there is venison and fish, deer offspring, and the fish is snakehead.

In addition, there are other ingredients, and some people, like him, choose hazel chicken.It seems that each of these senior chefs has extraordinary knowledge.Purely in the selection of ingredients, it cannot be said who is better.

To really decide the winner, it depends on the results of the follow-up cooking.In this regard, the one who goes up first will definitely have the advantage.The judges waited for three hours and were hungry. Whoever goes first will definitely get a good evaluation.The longer the time, the more the judges ate, and naturally it changed from delicious to quality, and the requirements became stricter.

No, one or two race against time, very busy!
"My lord, what dishes are we going to cook?" Wen Ming couldn't help asking when he saw the ingredients Wang Yong brought back.

"Braised chicken and rice!" Wang Yong smiled, "Let's not talk about that, help with the materials!"
