MTL - A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot-Chapter 350 Monarchs and ministers
Chapter 350 Monarch, Minister and Assistant Envoy
After hearing Li Yi's explanation, the screen in the live broadcast room was overwhelmed by the amazed audience.
"Fuck! Is it true?"
"Has anyone studied Chinese medicine? Is what Brother Yi said true?"
"I looked for the recipe of marinade on the Internet, and there is indeed Angelica dahurica in it, but I didn't say it was useful."
"I have learned some medicinal properties. The effects of these medicines mentioned by brother Yi are indeed mainly for diarrhea and diarrhea, but they are put in stewed soup to remove blood? I haven't studied this angle yet, but it makes sense! "
"Why does it feel a bit mysterious? Why is stew soup related to traditional Chinese medicine?"
Looking at the audience's barrage, Li Yi smiled and said: "Medicine and food come from the same source, Chinese food and traditional Chinese medicine are also of the same origin.
There are four flavors and five flavors in the medicinal properties, and it is also common for medicinal diet to regulate the body.
Sun Simiao, the sage of medicine, once said that food can expel evil and calm the viscera, and refresh the mind to nourish qi and blood.
If you can use food to calm diseases and expel diseases in a suitable way, it can be described as a good job. It is a wonderful way to bait the old for many years, and it is also an extremely health-preserving technique.
What Chinese medicine pursues is not to cure diseases, but to keep people from getting sick through usual health care and conditioning.
As the saying goes, medicine is used to dispel it, and food is used to follow it.
Chinese people will take the initiative to look for foods that are beneficial to the human body in their daily diet, and lo-mei is of course no exception. "
"That makes sense."
Hu Ling nodded again and again, and pulled Zhao Jinmai and said: "When I started spring, I often dig wild vegetables for my children to eat. Dandelions, mother-in-law and so on, are good for the body."
Tang Jianjun also nodded when he heard the words: "That's right, which Northeast people of our age didn't grow up eating wild vegetables? They are all natural green foods."
In the live broadcast room, listening to their words, the audience was also chatting.
"We also eat wild vegetables here! Wontons wrapped in wild shepherd's purse are so fresh!"
"I didn't believe this before, but I have no choice but to soak goji berries in a thermos!"
Hu Ling and Tang Jianjun said a few words with emotion, then looked at Li Yi, and asked curiously: "Then do we have to add all these materials?"
"Not necessarily, it depends on what the content is, and then the specific increase or decrease."
Li Yi explained: "The functions of these spices are different, and deodorization and aroma enhancement are only general terms, and they can be further subdivided.
For example, these kinds of ingredients just now remove the **** smell, but these kinds, red cardamom, white cardamom, hawthorn, and peach, all remove the earthy smell.
The aroma enhancement is also divided into the aroma of the body and the aftertaste.
The main body should be fragrant with fragrant leaves, fennel, star anise, tangerine peel and so on.
To bring out the aftertaste, you have to put the scorpion and angelica.
In addition, different brines also need to put different materials.
For red stew, you need to put more tangerine peel, for white stew, you need to put more cloves, and you need to be flexible. "
"Is it so complicated?"
Hu Ling was surprised when he heard it, and said in amazement: "It's really not easy to cook well. There are so many specialties in just one marinade."
"It's harder than going to school!"
Tang Jianjun also sighed, and then asked: "Li Yi! So, can you tell us a relatively simple marinade that can be used after learning?"
"Yes, just the kind of foolish, no-brainer."
Wang Xiaoli echoed from the side: "We are not professional chefs. We usually just marinate some chicken feet and gnaw on them at home. We don't need to be so particular about it."
Their words also resonated with the audience, and they all agreed in the barrage.
"That's right, Brother Yi! Don't demand so much from us, just explain something simple and easy to learn."
"I like to drink, if I can marinate some duck, it's too expensive outside now, I can't afford it!"
"I can't afford it. Last week I took my partner for a stroll, and I bought some duck intestines, duck feet, etc., which are light in my hand, and cost me more than 80!"
"It's really more cost-effective to marinate by yourself. Those frozen goods are quite cheap to buy."
"Are you all stupid? Why do you want to be a fool? Let Brother Yi teach someone who can open a shop! I'll sell it on the spot!"
"That's right! We want to open a store version!"
The audience gradually came to their senses, but Li Yi had already started talking about the simple version of the marinade.
"Then let me tell you a basic recipe!"
Li Yi smiled and said: "Actually, it's very simple. There is an old saying in the lo-mei industry, that if you want the lo-mei to be fragrant, add eight ingredients and broth.
The so-called eight ingredients are cinnamon bark, angelica dahurica, ginger, tangerine peel, grass fruit, nutmeg, amomum, and cloves.
These eight ingredients are the basis of all stewed spices, like the foundation of a tall building.
The various secret recipes of the lo-mei shop outside are all based on this recipe, adding other spices to make a compound flavor type.
If you are eating stewed food at home and don’t pursue a subtle taste experience, then using these eight ingredients is enough. "
"I'll make a note later."
Hu Ling took out her mobile phone, turned on the voice input, and asked Li Yi, "Say it again, what is it? Cinnamon? What else?"
Seeing this, several people behind were also reminded, and they all took out their mobile phones.
Li Yi told them the names of the eight ingredients again.
"How much of each material do you use?"
Hu Ling asked.
"This should be calculated according to the expected monarch, minister and assistant envoy."
Li Yi picked out eight kinds of spices and put them in the front.
"Still counting?"
Everyone present gasped.
Is it really a chemical experiment? How about a ratio?
"Exactly."
Li Yi explained: "These spices are basically Chinese herbal medicines, and of course they have to be matched with each other according to the order of the emperor.
General condiments are well-regulated spices, which are easier for people to accept, such as star anise, cinnamon and cumin, which are relatively common condiments.
When blending the brine, the proportion of Jun material is generally 0.2%.
That is, put about 2 grams of king material in 1 kg of brine. "
While speaking, Li Yi took out the cinnamon bark, Bai Zhi and Liang Jiang.
"Put 2 grams in 1 kilogram, that's 1 gram per catty, right?"
Hu Ling recorded on her mobile phone.
"right."
Li Yi nodded, and continued: "The minister material is the main line to set off the king material, it is more functional, and the aroma is more prominent.
For example, Caoguo has obvious fragrance, can remove fishy smell, relieve greasy, and can also reconcile the five flavors, which is a very good ingredient.
Although the taste of Angelica dahurica is quite bitter, it has obvious effects of removing differences and increasing aroma, and it is also a good ingredient.
But in white bittern, it is used as a king's material.
The ratio of the ingredients is generally 0.08%, that is, put 0.8 grams of ingredients in 1 kg of brine. "
In the live broadcast room, the audience posted "class notes" on the barrage.
"The gentleman expects 0.2%, the minister expects 0.08%... How do I feel that I am here to go to school?"
Li Yi put together several materials for the courtiers, and continued: "Assisting materials are the last force to assist in repairing leaks, although their status is not obvious, they are absolutely indispensable.
Its main functions can be summarized as carrying, fusion and harmonization, and the dosage should be very cautious.
For example, cloves, the taste of cloves is particularly strong, and you only need to carry a little bit to play the role of penetrating fragrance.
Therefore, its dosage must be less, generally no more than 0.05%, and Amomum is the same. "
As he spoke, Li Yi took out the two serving materials and placed them on the far right.
Looking at the eight servings of spices in front of Li Yi, Wang Xiaoli scratched his smooth scalp, and said with a bitter face: "Well, Li Yi! Can you just give us a specific number? Don't mess with the percentage, I didn't It doesn’t count what school you have gone to!”
