MTL - A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot-Chapter 229 Three Ding Baozi

  Chapter 229 Three Ding Baozi

  Yangzhou morning tea is rich in variety, but the most eaten by Yangzhou people are steamed buns, dry noodles and loin soup.

   Among them, the most common one is the traditional Sanding bun.

  The so-called San Ding buns are stuffed with diced chicken, diced meat, and diced bamboo shoots. They are also called Sanxian buns. Basically every tea house in Yangzhou has them.

  In some shops, some diced sea cucumber and diced shrimp are added to make Wuding buns.

  The Garden Teahouse has Wuding steamed buns, but Li Yi didn't order them. He still prefers to eat the traditional Sanding steamed buns.

  The buns just out of the cage were still warm, so Li Yi put them in a bowl and looked at their appearance.

   Seeing him staring at the steamed bun, Liu Yifei thought he thought it was too hot, so she mixed the dry noodles and signaled to him, "The steamed stuffed bun is too hot, why don't you eat some noodles first?"

"Need not."

  Li Yi shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm just looking at its shape. The craftsmanship of this bun maker is still very solid."

"How did you get it?"

  Liu Yifei was a little curious.

  Li Yi picked up the chopsticks, pointed at the steamed stuffed bun and said, "There are three requirements for the appearance of a Yangzhou steamed stuffed bun. Water chestnut drum, pleated skirt, and crucian carp mouth. Look at the mouth of this steamed stuffed bun, doesn't it look like the mouth of a crucian carp?"

  Liu Yifei looked at the steamed stuffed bun in the bowl, and then smiled: "Really, it looks like an open fish mouth."

   "This is the closing method of Sanding buns, but other buns have different closing methods, such as incense burner feet, a line of sky, double eyes, dome, etc. There are also different genres, and it is not clear to say a word or two."

  Picking up the bun, Li Yi exposed the smooth and round belly of the bun, and said with a smile: "The water chestnut drum means that the belly of the bun is white and round, but it can't leak oil, and it looks like a fresh water chestnut, so it is qualified.

  As for the pleated skirt, it refers to the pleats of the bun. Generally, a large bun has at least 32 pleats, and a small bun has at least 18 pleats. "

  Hearing this, Liu Yifei also picked up a steamed stuffed bun, counted it carefully, and found to her surprise: "There are really 18 pleats, no more, no less!"

   "So, some of the products produced in the store, you don't need to eat them to know whether they are at their level."

  Li Yi smiled and picked up the bun, and took a bite on the side.

  The slender skin of the steamed stuffed bun breaks as soon as you bite it, and the stuffing inside immediately pours into your mouth.

  Li Yi tasted it carefully, nodded and said: "The diced meat is mellow, the diced chicken is fresh, the diced bamboo shoots are crisp and tender, and the stuffing is well adjusted."

  Liu Yifei was a little greedy after what he said, and she couldn't wait to take a bite, but the stuffing of the buns in her mouth almost burned her.

   Fortunately, she followed Li Yi to help, and she already had some experience, so she let go in time.

  Following, she blew on the gap made by the bite to dissipate the heat in the bun, and then couldn't wait to take a bite.

  The soft bun skin and delicious filling immediately caught her eyes: "This bun is delicious!"

  But Zhao Jinmai, who was eating noodles at the side, interrupted with a smile and asked: "Brother Yi said the tune is good, is there something not good enough?"

   "It's not bad, maybe it's a matter of personal taste!"

  Li Yi smiled and said: "The stuffing in this store should still use the old recipe, the ratio of diced chicken, diced meat and diced bamboo shoots is still 1:2:1, that is, diced meat accounts for half.

   The chicken in the stuffing is good, very fat and tender, it should be the next year's hen, and the bamboo shoots are also fresh.

  However, it is best to use streaky ribs for the diced meat of Sanding buns, with moderate fat.

  But the meat used today may be a little fatter, and it is fragrant enough, but the aftertaste is a little bit greasy. "

  Hearing Li Yi's words, Zhao Jinmai picked up a steamed bun curiously, tasted it, and then smiled and said, "I think it's quite delicious, but the steamed stuffed bun needs to be a little oily, otherwise it won't taste good."

   "So I say it's a matter of personal taste."

  Li Yi smiled and drank the porridge, and shaved off the oil.

Hearing this, Zhao Jinmai stuffed all the half-bitten buns into his mouth, and asked curiously while chewing: "Brother Yi, like you eat, will you subconsciously grasp it with you every time you eat?" Knowledge comparison? Can you still enjoy delicious food like this?”

  Li Yi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's still possible, but it's more difficult because the threshold is too high.

  Like a person who likes to watch movies, at the beginning, some simple sand sculpture movies may be watched with gusto.

  After watching a lot of sand sculpture movies, I started to look for some movies with smooth logic and online IQ to watch.

   I read a lot more, but the logic is smooth and the IQ is above the line, there is no way to satisfy him.

  So he will start looking for some high-quality classic movies to watch, so that he will be shocked again by the master's techniques and ideological content.

  But there are many high-quality movies, and there are fewer movies that can make him happy.

   Occasionally finds a high-quality masterpiece, and he will be happy for several days. "

Zhao Jinmai is an actor, and he feels deeply about this: "It's really like this. After the number of viewings increases, I really feel that good movies are really too rare. Every time I see one, I will feel like winning a lottery." Feel."

  Li Yi nodded with a smile: "I am like this now, I have rarely come across amazing dishes, but if I can really eat them, I will definitely be happy for several days."

  At this time, Liu Yifei smiled and said, "So you should be able to appreciate how happy we are every time we eat your dishes, right?

  Our threshold is not as high as yours. Every dish you cook is, for us, the best movie. "

  Hearing this, Li Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled: "If you can talk, talk more."

"Ha ha!"

  Zhao Jinmai was amused, and said with a smile: "Although there are suspicions of flattery, I agree, and participating in this show is really the happiest time since I entered the industry.

  I always feel that other jobs are for making money, but for this show, I feel that I just come to have fun, to eat delicious food, and I am very happy! "

  Liu Yifei also sighed softly: "It would be great if we could shoot a few more seasons."

   Hearing what she said, Zhao Jinmai also remembered that this season's show only made a budget for 15 to 20 episodes.

   That is to say, in ten or so episodes, the show will end, and everyone will disband by then.

  Thinking of this, Zhao Jinmai suddenly lost his appetite to eat. He turned his head to look at the program director, and begged, "Sister Tian, ​​how many more episodes should we shoot? I haven't had enough of Brother Yi's cooking yet!"

  Behind the camera, Wang Tian smiled without saying a word.

  Why wouldn't she want to?

  But the funding for the program group is limited, and the contract with the Forbidden City has already been signed, and it has only been signed for three months. It is impossible to extend it.

  So, she smiled and said, "It's still early, what's the rush? Besides, we still have another season!"

  Zhao Jinmai's mood didn't improve after hearing this, because her agency only signed her contract for one season, and it may not be decided whether to renew the contract for the next season!

   Seeing her depressed, Li Yi smiled and said: "What? It seems like we won't be able to see each other after the recording of the show."

  Liu Yifei smiled and suggested: "Why don't you open a store! We will definitely support you."

"yes!"

  Zhao Jinmai was woken up, and said happily: "If you open a restaurant, I will go to your store every day to support you! When I go out to film, I will order your takeaway!"
