Xia Yu who made the suggestion saw Youla nodding without hesitation. Xia Yu took Youla and Amber to the kitchen again and opened the storage cabinet and refrigerator. The rich raw materials placed in them made Youla La felt envious.
What is this large box that is releasing cold air similar to the ice element?Why can it continuously maintain the freshness of meat like the low temperature environment of Longji Snow Mountain?Compared with the easy-to-preserve raw materials such as flour and potatoes on the shelves, the Teyvat version of the refrigerator produced by Albedo and letting Frozen Tree Xiaoqi be responsible for charging the elemental power attracted Yula's attention more.
There are also these magic stone stove tools that Xia Yu uses for cooking. How should they be used?
The kitchen environment, which was different from the alchemy cooking utensils of Mondstadt's wood stove, made Yora feel unsure. When Xia Yu made the dish called barbecued pork just now, he only used the stone fireplace that Mondstadt also has, and the workbench on the other side was Not a single part of the iron pot is used, so do you want to ask Xia Yu how to use these cooking utensils?
No... Even if Xia Yu really explained to himself the use of these cooking utensils, he might not be able to use these new tools to control various factors such as the heat when using these new stoves for the first time. Such innate conditions are not good for him. Extremely disadvantageous.
What's more important is that his specialty dishes are not cooked in iron pots.Yula calmly analyzed the situation and focused her eyes on the oven beside her. As the only and most familiar cooking tool she knew in this new-style kitchen, this was her only weapon in the kitchen.
Then there are the various raw materials... I took down a small bag of high-precision flour from the shelf, and then selected a small piece of divided pork leg and smoked meat in the freezer. I was impressed that the freezer could maintain different temperatures. At the same time, after preparing all the ingredients that needed to be prepared, such as salt and butter, Yula was stopped by Xia Yu as she was about to walk outside.
"If you want to use water, Youla, just move the handle over there slightly to the right." Xia Yu, who pointed to the faucet on the sink and introduced it to Youla, walked towards the water reservoir on the console. Xia Yu, a famous chef, can completely guess what Youla is thinking at this moment.
Before cooking, the hygiene of your hands is the most important, so after selecting the ingredients, you will use water whether you are washing your hands, washing the ingredients, or kneading the noodles.In most catering shops in Mondstadt, the chef will place a large wooden bucket of water next to the open sink, which is used to facilitate cleaning and other aspects.
"Huh!? Is this still possible?" The novel equipment stunned Youla. It seemed that because she was going through the assessment, the girl who was mumbling in a low voice did not make the iconic declaration of grudge as usual. '.After taking off the blue gloves she usually used to protect her hands and cleaning them, Yura showed a serious expression as she entered the cooking state.
Kneading dough, cutting meat, and using the fireplace to melt the butter in the container. Yula, who was skilled in the operations, did have a solid cooking skills as Amber said. She kneaded the dough vigorously but with her whole body. The girl seems to have been influenced by her usual love of dancing and swordsmanship. Even when kneading dough, she has a different kind of beauty.
"Hey, hehe~ It seems that I can taste the food cooked by Youla again~!" Compared to Xia Yu who carefully observed the cooking process of Youla, Amber, who was more concerned about the results, seemed to already know what Youla wanted to cook. What exactly was the food? The silly smile on Amber's face as she kept swallowing her saliva made Xia Yu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Amber seemed to have noticed that her shameful expression was seen by Xia Yu, and Amber's face turned slightly rosy when she woke up from her wonderful fantasy. "Xia Yu." In order to divert this embarrassing situation, Amber immediately asked Xia Yu: "What kind of food do you think Youla can make?"
The ordinary dough being kneaded, the butter dough that has been prepared and placed aside, as well as the stuffing made of shank meat and eye bacon cut into small pieces mixed with a small amount of spices, and the fireplace that is heating up, are very interesting to the chef. The semi-finished product was so familiar that Xia Yu immediately gave the answer.
"It's most likely a puff pastry type of meat sauce pie."
Yes, if the dough is just made from ordinary high-precision flour, then the dish Yula wants to make may be pasta or bread. However, once the butter dough is prepared, the result will most likely be You need to use puff pastry type baked food.
After rolling out, overlapping, and stacking the ordinary dough and butter dough again and again, the thin butter dough layer will melt slightly during baking, and the vacated pores can not only fully absorb the butter The aroma can also allow the temperature of the oven to fully bake these small cracks that spread slightly layer by layer to a crispy texture. This is also one of the most traditional methods of making puff pastry layers.
Sure enough, under Yula's skillful operation, the rolled-out ordinary dough thinly wrapped with rich fillings was wrapped in butter puff pastry and then kneaded into a crescent shape. Her fingers folded and kneaded the edges back and forth. After the lace sealing, two crescents similar to tortellini pizza were put into the oven.
Youla, who had almost finished cooking, rolled her eyes at Amber, who was sitting next to Xia Yu and watching her cooking. It was obvious that Youla had already considered this friend who was definitely good at "cooking rice" in the review for a while. within the link.
The next step was to wait for her signature dish, Wave Pie, to be baked. Taking advantage of this break, Youla finally had time to focus on the various cooking tools in Xia Yu's kitchen.As a chef, if you don't even know the things in the kitchen, you will definitely be 'grudged' by various items in the kitchen.
"Xia Yu, can you introduce to me this relatively novel kitchen of yours?" Youla looked particularly serious as she confirmed with Xia Yu. "There is also the iron pipe that flows out clean water. How does it work?"
"No problem, these are magic stone stoves that I paid a lot of money to ask the Tianquan Star of Liyue to help me find an alchemist to customize. As long as the ore rich in elemental energy is put into the energy storage box below, it will It can convert elemental power into flames through a specific alchemy circle. Compared with traditional wood-fired stoves, although this kind of stove is more expensive to use, it is more convenient."
In order to conduct a more intuitive battle, Xia Yu, who was explaining to Youla, came to the stove, gently twisted the knob to turn on the 'blower' of the wind array, and turned on the fire. The roar produced by the gushing flames and the flowing air is particularly eye-catching.
"Keeping the fire in this state ensures that the iron pot placed on the stove can be heated better, which makes it easier to cook some dishes that need to be 'quickly cooked'. If there is any disadvantage to it, it is that The cost is a bit high, so I usually use this kitchen equipment when cooking at home." Xia Yu was slightly helpless after explaining this.
Yes, compared with modern kitchens, although Teyvat's kitchen can be completed by professionals using alchemy and various magic stones full of elemental power, its use cost is quite high.For example, the current set of equipment and the 'tap water' used just now. Pipes are laid to draw the lake water from the Cider Lake. After being purified by multiple alchemy circles, it is then pressurized and sent to your cabin.
As for the equipment used for cooking...it can only be said that fortunately, the people living in this house are all owners who are not very short of money. Even Mona, a migrant worker who was originally "provided with food and accommodation" now has a stable and amazing job. of high income.The maintenance of the equipment can also be completely carried out by Abedo, which maintains the status quo of the "magic modernization" of his house.
Eh?It's really convenient... Yula, who was thinking about time silently in her heart, showed an expression of envy. Although she really wanted Xia Yu to contact the person who made this device to help her get one, but the girl's extraordinary The vision and the current situation of the Lawrence family, which can be described as abjection, constantly remind Yura of the cruel reality.
The current Lawrence family may not be able to afford such a kitchen equipment...
Let’s not talk about how unhappy the Mondstadt people who hate the Laurence family because of historical issues have made their lives. Just the fact that my uncle recently hired mercenaries of fools to overthrow the Knights of the West Wind has already made the already not wealthy The Lawrence family is getting worse.
Although he had investigated the hidden location of the Fools' Task Force that was annihilated due to Tevarin's arrival when he left, he could not find even a hundred molads other than food and other supplies. Obviously, his uncle paid The deposits of Foolish People were definitely transferred by these guys.
In this case, the uncle still wants to torment the Lawrence family's revenge... It seems that he has already avenged it. The uncle who betrayed Mond is bound to receive the most severe punishment, even being exiled to the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain.And the terrible environment of Longji Snow Mountain... Even the fools who are resident in Mondstadt every time they return from the snow mountain will be sluggish for several days after returning. With the uncle's pampered situation, it is almost equal to death. Number...
Hey, it’s better not to think about these things that will only make your mood worse... It’s almost time to make the waves pie. I opened the fireplace and used a long shovel to take out the golden waves baked on the skin. After placing the prepared food on a plate and handing it to Xia Yu and An Bo, Youla looked a little nervous.
"This is the Wave Pie I made, please try it." Yula felt a little strange as she introduced her cooking. Why did she feel nervous?
In short, it couldn't be because Amber, who barely looked up and looked down, could only be related to Xia Yu.Is it because Xia Yu is about to review his own cooking?But have I ever really been so unsure of myself on a daily basis?
Compared to Youla who was still hesitating, Xia Yu's attention was completely attracted by the dishes made by Youla.
I have to admit that Yura really put a lot of effort into this pie that is not too big. The golden color of the crescent-shaped baked pie is enough to attract people's attention. Carefully observe the tiny cracks in the puff pastry, which are even and uniform. The gaps and the thin crumbs falling off the crust at the slightest touch show that Yula's control over the kneading strength of the dough is quite good.
The next step is to taste it and see how it tastes. Compared to Amber who was panting after biting into the pie while it was still hot, Xia Yu, who was well prepared, first broke the pie into pieces along the middle of the baked pie. Two halves.With the smoky aroma that penetrates the nostrils and the filling that is still steaming, it looks particularly appetizing.
I bit into a whole piece of stuffing in the middle. The salty flavor and smoky flavor are fully mixed and the taste directly whets my appetite. I want to continue to taste it. It is grilled and fragrant. The residue left behind when the butter pastry melts in the mouth and the fillings compose a beautiful piece of music in the mouth.
A pretty good baked pie!Through this extremely complete baked pie, Xia Yu can be sure that Youla does have a very high level of cooking as Amber said. Although there is still a certain gap between herself and the chefs she met in Liyue, after all Yura is not a professional chef, so there is really no need to delve into the world of cooking like cooks like me.
“A baked pie with a high degree of completion. Although the ingredients are very simple and there is still a certain gap compared with professional cooks, it does give me an eye-catching feeling when I taste it. .”
Xia Yu, who gave his own evaluation, continued to say after seeing Yula who looked a little nervous and relieved: "However, if you have already achieved this level and want to go further, it will not be as easy as imagined... Going up is the category of professional chefs. Considering your current job, Yura, I hope you can consider it carefully and seriously. Do you really have time to study the impact of subtle changes on cooking?"
Chapter 295: Telling the truth while drunk, Yula’s grievance
Perhaps because of Xia Yu's serious attitude, Youla, who was still full of energy, calmed down a little.After carefully thinking about Xia Yu's question, the girl who fell silent began to think carefully about her own situation.
Indeed, the reason why I initially wanted to learn cooking skills from Xia Yu was because as a nobleman, I had strict requirements for myself, to be at the forefront of everyone, and to demand myself according to the strict standards of a true nobleman. This was because I wanted to avoid provoking disputes. The best way to fight back against those who speak ill of you just because you are a member of the Lawrence family.
Etiquette, swordsmanship, art, and taste in food, all talents must be taken care of.
The reason why I want to learn from Xia Yu is because of the takeout that Amber brings to me at noon from time to time. Even if it is a simple meal that has lost its taste due to the passage of time, I am attracted by it when I eat it. Impressed by the delicious taste.
After tasting the dishes made on site today, I was even more convinced that I wanted to learn from Xia Yu.Although Xia Yu looks only a few years older than him, his cooking skills are definitely among the top in Mondstadt.His control over the maturity of the meat is really top-notch. The tender, juicy but elastic barbecued pork that he just tasted was definitely the most perfectly cooked dish he has ever tasted.
But Xia Yu was right. He couldn't forget his identity as the cavalry captain of the guerrilla squad of the Knights of the West Wind... It was really impossible for him to spend all his time on cooking like a professional cook when he was away on missions for a long time.
But...except for the time when patrolling Mondstadt's security and dealing with problems, I am really free!
To the dilapidated Lawrence family, he was an out-and-out alien who did not cherish the false and dark glory of the past and joined the Knights of the West Wind.In the eyes of the people, because he bears the name of the Lawrence family, a family that has become rotten and smelly in Mondstadt, even though he has joined the Knights of the West Wind and has indeed made a lot of achievements, only the Knights of the West Wind still recognize him. members of the group.
Ordinary people feel like they are suffering even by looking at themselves...
It is precisely because of this extremely small circle of people that I devote most of my time to various studies: adjusting my mood through ritual dances, improving my cooking skills, and bringing more knowledge to the exclusive chef of the Guerrilla Knights Team. Inspiration, or improving one's own swordsmanship.If you really feel aggrieved, go to Angel's Gift or Cat Tail Tavern and have a few drinks to numb yourself.
But even in a place like Mondstadt's bar where everyone spoke freely, there were still people who were drunk and pointed at me. Due to the reputation of the Lawrence family, I couldn't teach these people a lesson to avoid damaging the reputation of the Lawrence family. So bad that he was expelled from Mondstadt...
"No problem, I have plenty of free time, and I will never let you down, Xia Yu, when you teach me how to cook." The perseverance revealed in Youla's eyes after making the promise showed Xia Yu that she had indeed made up her mind. determination.
Before Xia Yu could nod in agreement, Amber, who was observing the situation from the side, reacted first. The girl jumped up from her seat so excitedly that she hugged Youla's neck as delicate as suet from behind, and then said: "Yura, do you really want to learn from Xia Yu? Great! I'll tell your guerrilla knight team and let them patrol alone for a while after the festival!"
"Huh? Amber, wait..."
Ignoring Youla's arm that she raised to stop herself, Amber, who started running, left the hut as fast as a sharp arrow, leaving only Xia Yu and Youla, who was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say. In the living room.
"This..." This completely unexpected development made Xia Yu a little confused. If the captain of the Guerrilla Knights team was not there, would the remaining members really have no problem going out on missions?You know, these are one of the few people in Mondstadt who recognize Yura. They can't let anything happen because they lost their main combat power by teaching Yura how to cook...
Thinking of this, Xia Yu quickly confirmed to Youla: "Youla, can the safety of the team you lead patrol alone be guaranteed?"
"Of course, no problem. The team of guerrilla knights I lead can now be regarded as an elite force among the members of the Knights of the West Wind." When talking about the members of her team, Yula's face revealed a bit of pride. "There are also some strange changes in Mondstadt's situation in recent times."
"In the recent missions, we have not received any clearance missions related to the most dangerous members of the Abyss Order. I don't know why. They seem to have disappeared in Mondstadt recently, which has also injured the members of the Knights. The possibility is greatly reduced. Therefore, in addition to cleaning up the Qiuqiu people's expanded sentry tower stronghold, the recent tasks of our guerrilla knight team are only to apprehend the members of the treasure stealing group who are committing crimes everywhere."
It turns out that without the pressure from the Abyss Order, the pressure from the Qiuqiu people and the Treasure Thief Group has indeed been reduced a lot.Since Yura, as the team leader, recognized their strength, she really didn't have to worry too much.After receiving the assurance, Xia Yu nodded towards Youla.
"No problem, considering that you have a very solid cooking skills, but the cooking methods we have learned may be somewhat different. When I officially start teaching tomorrow, I will give you some guidance while teaching you some practical cooking techniques. Skills. Because it is a formal teaching, according to the rules of my original world, Yura, you will come over early tomorrow to help me handle some of the raw materials for breakfast. Can you do it?"
Eh?Shouldn't I pay a mora as tuition and then teach my experience like a practical lesson?The rules proposed by Xia Yu made Youla a little dumbfounded.However, Xia Yu is indeed not from Mondstadt, otherwise he would not accept his request so easily...
Maybe this is really the rule of his original world. Considering that Youla here nodded resolutely to Xia Yu, and then replied in a very serious tone: "I understand, I will definitely arrive early tomorrow."
————————————————————————
"Hiccup~ I haven't had such a lively chat with someone in a bar for a long time~ Amber is not old enough to drink yet. Everyone in the guerrilla team cannot come due to family reasons. Even if they drink on weekdays, it is I'm drinking alone..." On the second floor of Angel's Gift, where there were relatively few people, Yula, who had successfully become a disciple, looked a little drunk.
Perhaps because of Yula's identity, the two of them found a seat where there weren't too many people and sat down under the guidance of Charles, the bartender and part-time bar manager who was already an old acquaintance.After drinking a few glasses of the highest-grade wine in the store, Xia Yu, whose physical fitness had been strengthened by the dragon's blood, got drunk. Yula, who proposed Mond's high-quality wine as a apprenticeship ceremony, couldn't bear it at first.
Different from the serious and somewhat arrogant image of Youla when she was awake, the girl whose face was already turning red finally took off her usual strong disguise. At this moment, Youla's eyes were filled with a look of grievance. He looked as if the witness who came to the witness stand to speak for no reason was considered a criminal by everyone in the room.
"Now, Xia Yu, why do you think this is..." Yula, who seemed confused, finally broke away from her usual aloof appearance and started talking. "It has been thousands of years since the Lawrence family was kicked off the stage. Why do I, as a descendant, still have to bear the responsibility for the mistakes made by our ancestors?"
"Even if the Lawrence family really wrote a rather dark history in Mondstadt because of those thousand years, before that the Lawrence family was one of the three major nobles of Mondstadt... The Lawrence family also had a history of walking in Mondstadt. The history of the frontline struggle for Mondstadt, why does everyone only remember the bad times of the Lawrence family and automatically ignore the things before that?"
"Also, even after so many years, I have made a lot of contributions to Mondstadt, and I have always regulated my behavior with the strict requirements of a true noble. The entire city of Mondstadt should be comparable to me. There is only the eldest daughter of this generation of Gunnhild family..."
"It has been so long since they have also contributed to Mondstadt. What makes them keep the reputation of the Lawrence family at the level of criminals or even death row? What's even more uncomfortable is that I really can't do anything to them. Otherwise, the Lawrence family’s reputation will be even worse, and they will have to fight back by holding grudges.”
"But what can I do even if I talk about holding grudges... I have not experienced the past history, and neither have they, but they just ignore the good things I have done, and the bad ones are infinitely magnified. , such as today’s issue of my uncle’s imprisonment, there must be many rumors about the Lawrence family..."
Yula, who was pouring out the bitterness in her heart, became more and more aggrieved as she spoke. After filling up the wine glass in her hand, Yula raised her head and poured out the wine.It seemed that because she was lifted too high, the purple liquid in her stomach that could not be swallowed in time slid down the corner of the girl's mouth and onto the clean clothes.
What a heavy topic... Since he is not a native of Mondstadt, Xia Yu, who listened to Youla's complaints, really didn't know how to persuade Youla who was in trouble.After all, issues involving history and family still involve too much, so what can I do?The evil deeds of the Laurence family were even incorporated into the music they sang daily by the bards.
Let Youra ignore the pointing fingers of those civilians?How is it possible! ?
Even just now, people from Mondstadt sitting at a few tables not far away were still pointing at Yula. Even if Yula has good quality and cultivation and can maintain it on the surface, what she is actually thinking in her heart is the same as now. The truth she confided after drinking was pretty much the same.
I am afraid that apart from vegetative people, the only people who can endure this situation are robots.
"How about Youla, why don't you just consider going on a trip to relax? I believe Qin should be able to understand." Xia Yu, who made the suggestion, looked at Youla who put down the wine glass and directly put her head on the table with a dazed expression. The Huhu girl seemed to be thinking about whether her suggestion was feasible.
"Tourism...I understand, I will think about it carefully later."
Chapter 296 Youla: Did I really learn cooking?
"Xia Yu, I'm coming~ What's for breakfast today?"
In the early morning, Ying opened the door of the house in Chenge Pot and came to the open-air kitchen with a smile. When she saw the empty scene in the kitchen, the blond girl who was stunned for a moment finally remembered the current situation. .
Yes... Xia Yu is at Mondstadt's home now. In this case, he will definitely prepare breakfast at home.But it doesn’t matter. Anyway, I can travel between places through the teleportation anchor point. It’s easy to go to Xia Yu’s house for a meal, hehe~
Thinking of this, Ying ran back to the house and grabbed the sleepy Paimon who had just floated out of the house. After Madoka said hello, Yingla, who had a happy expression, still didn't respond. Paimon, who came to see what happened, disappeared.
Not far away from the familiar Fountain Square, everyone in Mondstadt seems to be sleeping soundly because of the festival. The slightly deserted streets make Ying couldn't help but feel how much people in this city like wine. Drinks.
But these have nothing to do with me for the time being. My growling stomach is reminding me to go to Xia Yujia for dinner!Jogging out of the side door from the stone steps on the left, the blonde girl who came to the door of Xia Yu's residence became even happier when she smelled the aroma coming from the house.
What a delicious smell!Xia Yu must be making delicious food!The blond girl who knocked on the door softly called out: "Xia Yu, are you there? Do you mind if I come over for breakfast?" Before Ying could take her hand back, the wooden door opened with a creak. .
Eh?The wind slime that appeared in the field of vision and smiled at her surprised Ying. Is this little guy smart enough to recognize someone and open the door?Ying, who followed the little guy floating in the air and followed the aroma to the kitchen door, was stunned when she saw the scene inside.
Her sky-blue hair was tied up with a leather band and hidden in a white hat. Her tall and well-shaped figure could not be completely hidden even if she put on a thick chef's uniform. The girl who was carefully observing Xia Yu's techniques was a little overwhelmed. Ying's imagination.
No way...it's actually Yura!That Yula who always talks about holding grudges is actually willing to come over and help Xia Yu make breakfast? ?
Could it be that the sun came out from the west today?Or are you saying that you haven't woken up yet?The blond girl who was stunned turned to look at Paimon who was squinting and still yawning. After hesitating for a moment, the blond girl still chose to stretch out her sinful hands...
"Hey! I already told you not to use me to see if you're asleep or not!" Paimon, who complained to Ying, puffed up his chubby little face angrily, raised his hands and held the person he was sleeping on. While the messed-up hair was cut back to its original shape, the noise they made finally caught the attention of Xia Yu and Youla, who were making breakfast.
"Morning, Ying, Paimon, are you here for breakfast? It will take a while." Xia Yu, who was holding the ruffles of the buns in his hands, said hello to the two of them and then turned his attention back to Youra. , when seeing that Youla was not distracted by the arrival of the two, Xia Yu's eyes showed satisfaction.
This is indeed the state of mind that a person who hopes to learn a craft should have. Xia Yu originally thought that with Yura's somewhat arrogant personality, she would have some extreme reactions when Ying and Paimon saw her other side. La still focused all her attention on learning cooking skills. From this point of view, Yora really came to learn from herself with a very high level of awareness.
"It's like this. Since Youla can make crescent lace, it's not difficult to close the buns. You just need to lift the edge of the dough while rubbing the lace forward, and use the other hand to push the meat filling down. Press down a little and at the same time move the bun a little in the opposite direction, and then close it at the end..." Xia Yu, who explained the essentials of the action, completed the closing of the bun skillfully under Youla's careful observation.
"Understood, I will try it out." Yula picked up the dough and started filling it with meat fillings, with many thoughts in her heart.
I really learned a lot of different things when I came to Xia Yu's house this morning: Although the preparation of breakfast this morning was not very complicated, the names of the three kinds of food were Xiao Long Bao, soy milk, and steamed dumplings.Putting aside the soy milk that is grinded out by a stone mill and then poured into the pot that is tumbling, there are really many points to pay attention to in the details of the two seemingly simple foods, steamed buns and steamed dumplings.
The dough was so obedient in Xia Yu's hands!The dough prepared according to the proportion can be kneaded into any shape, and there is no breakage or unevenness when pulling.Also, the round dough made with the wooden rolling pin, which is thick in the middle and thin around the edges, is also very reasonable. During the process of squeezing and stuffing the prepared filling, the middle part of the dough will indeed expand due to the force. open.
However, the dough will form a small amount of fluffy pores after fermentation. Even rapid heating cannot guarantee that the water will not flow out completely. Xia Yu added at least half a catty of water to this pound of pork filling, even if he added salt to temporarily soften the meat. Keep the moisture from flowing out. Will the moisture in the meat filling make the dough surrounding it thin out when it is heated?
Well, there is also the fact that closing the mouth of this food called Xiao Long Bao is not as easy as imagined... After twisting out a few scarred buns, the buns in Yula's hands finally had a relative Reliable look.After taking out the willow leaf-shaped dumplings that had been steamed in the pot and placing them on a plate, and placing the steamed dumplings aside in a warm water steamer slightly above room temperature for the secondary fermentation of the dough, Youla finally had the chance to speak. Asked.
“Mr. ?”
"Do you still remember the process when we vigorously stirred and beat the minced meat in one direction?" Xia Yu smiled as he understood what Youla wanted to ask. "This may involve some knowledge that you don't know, Yula."
"It makes sense to add strength to the meat filling by one-way stirring and beating, because the fresh meat you buy is actually rich in moisture. During the process of mincing the meat into meat filling, the inside of the meat The protein particles and fat particles are actually suspended and floating in the water...Thick cream pumpkin soup, it should be no problem to understand it this way."
"Then during the process of stirring and beating the meat, the salt we add will dissolve the protein in the meat that can be dissolved by the salt. In this process, the fat particles, undissolved protein and air will be dissolved by this part. The egg whites are wrapped, and continuous whipping will cause the structure between the egg whites to show a flocculent network structure. The viscosity of the entire meat filling will increase at this time, forming a relatively stable 'oil-in-water' emulsification system. .”
"During the steaming process of steamed buns, the protein in the water is denatured by heat and becomes elastic. The fat and water are wrapped in the network structure formed by the protein gel and are not lost as easily as imagined, so in the end we can make The steamed dumplings are juicy and elastic. As for why you need to add this amount of water, that’s a summary of the chef’s experience.”
protein?emulsification?This...what are these?Yura, who was confused after hearing this, fell into petrification.Relying on her fairly good lie-recognizing skills, Yula was able to tell that Xia Yu, who was talking eloquently at this moment, was telling the truth, but why was it that he was also a chef and he didn't have many of these words except meat and fat? You understand! ?
Could it be that I am really ignorant?Yura, who listened carefully to Xia Yu's explanation, seemed even more modest.After writing down all these unknown words in her heart, the girl decided to look up the information on her own first. If she really couldn't find what these words meant, she would ask Xia Yu for advice.
After all, these things that Xia Yu said casually looked like basic knowledge... If you ask like this, doesn't it mean that you haven't learned even the most basic cooking theory knowledge from the teacher!Yura, who was making small calculations in her heart, felt a little ashamed.
The subtle but rigorous atmosphere between the two people teaching and learning in the kitchen made Ying's eyes darken. He lowered his head and turned his gaze to Paimon, who was hugging him. The big and small people in the eyes looked at each other. The look in the other person's eyes showed disbelief.
Didn't Amber say that her best friend Yula was a noble noble with noble character?Although I am not very familiar with Yura, who often talks about holding grudges, at least I can be considered an acquaintance who nods to each other when passing by. Why does Yura, who strictly demands me according to the noble standards, learn from Xia Yu? For cooking...
Which nobleman requires his cooking skills to be higher than those of chefs?If that's the case, why do noble chefs need to have their own chefs in their mansions?Isn’t it enough to just cook for yourself? ?But because of Yura's personality, it's hard for me to ask... I'm really curious!
Xia Yu, can't you explain it?So anxious!
————————————————————————
"Oh, it's delicious! It's really delicious!"
After half an hour passed, Ying and Paimon, whose cheeks were bulging, swallowed the food in their mouths and drank a large bowl of soy milk. They patted their stomachs and lay down on the armchair with satisfaction. The big one and the small one showed lazy and happy smiling faces.
I had eaten simple dishes like steamed buns when I was in Liyue, but what Xia Yu made was really qualitatively different from those.
