Chapter 621: Making Wuding Cold Chicken! Dundun: Yes, I am the domineering little president! [Please subscribe]

"What do you want to eat this morning, Xubao?"

Shen Jiayue finished aerobics on the roof of the building and came downstairs. Seeing Lin Xu still busy in the kitchen, she couldn't help but ask.

"Eat fried chicken and fir soup noodles, wash your hands and then we'll start eating."

Put the noodles into the pot and cook.

While the noodles are cooking, put a small spoonful of lard, a little light soy sauce, a little salt, a little oyster sauce, chives, coriander and other ingredients into the bowl, then add a large spoonful of the original soup for cooking the noodles and stir evenly.

When the noodles are almost ready, put a handful of washed green vegetables into the pot, stir briefly, take out the noodles and green vegetable leaves together, and put them into the bowl of prepared soup.

Finally, add some fried chicken and fir trees, and a bowl of delicious chicken and fir rice noodle soup is completed.

In the past, Lin Xu didn't like eating noodles in the morning, but now she feels that having a bowl of noodles in the morning, with soup, vegetables, and staple food, and feeling warm all over after eating it, is much faster than cooking porridge.

Two large bowls of noodle soup are brought to the table, and a few plates of pickles are placed to accompany the meal. Breakfast is ready.

"Wow, the fragrance is so strong!"

What I ate today was not the hand-made noodles made by Lin Xu, but the hollow noodles bought online.

Although hand-made noodles are delicious when eaten, they need to be adjusted occasionally. Moreover, the texture of this hollow noodles is indeed smooth, round, and the core is still empty, making it very suitable for eating in the morning.

When the couple sat down to eat, Dundun was also squatting in front of a small dining table not far away, eating Lin Xu's freshly steamed chicken breast mixed with egg yolk.

Chicken breast supplements protein, and egg yolk supplements lecithin. The two most important nutrients needed by animals can be supplemented in one go.

If you cut some offal such as chicken livers and hearts and steam them in, you will also be able to supplement the taurine the cat needs.

But there were no offal at home, and the meal was too complex to eat, so I didn’t prepare any for Dundun.

It’s not too late to prepare the offal for it to eat after we go to the store.

Shen Jiayue took the chopsticks, picked up a handful of noodles and blew on them, then slurped it down and ate it. An expression of surprise immediately appeared on her fair and beautiful face:

"Wow, isn't this delicious?"

The noodles are smooth and smooth, and you can even experience the joy of "soy noodles" when you eat them.

The noodles are very delicious, and the soup is even more delicious. It not only has the unique fragrance of gallinobacteria, but also has the strong fragrance and moist feeling of lard. One bite will make people feel comfortable all over.

Lin Xu knew it would be delicious if done this way, but he didn't expect it to be so delicious.

The noodles are smooth, the noodle soup is delicious, and the green vegetables are also fresh and sweet. It is super satisfying to eat in one bowl.

Shen Jiayue held the bowl and drank the noodle soup completely, and asked with some unfinished thoughts:

"Xubao, are there any more?"

"No, I just cooked two bowls...are you not full?"

Lin Xu felt that the amount of noodles cooked today, based on the amount of food the two of them usually eat, would be left over. Although it was only two bowls, they were two super big bowls, not the small bowls that people usually use to eat rice.

.

"I feel full after eating, but a little bit unsatisfied..."

Shen Jiayue wiped her mouth with a paper towel on the table and did not ask for any more food.

Everyone is trying to lose weight, so I can't lag behind others, at least I can't be compared to Yan Bao, otherwise her tail will be raised to the sky.

Lin Xu stood up and said while clearing the dishes:

"Go to the store and grab some food. There are a lot of delicious food to be prepared today. If you are hungry, you can eat early."

He washed the pots and pans and tidied up the kitchen, then went upstairs to change clothes. Holding Dundun who was full and drunk, he went downstairs with Shen Jiayue and drove to the store.

There are a lot of dishes to be prepared today, so I have to prepare them early.

The first is the steam pot chicken. Although the steam pot squab has become a regular dish in the store, the small pot for one person is also more popular, especially women, who especially like the feeling of drinking pigeon soup and eating pigeon meat.

However, people in southern Yunnan have steam pot chicken, not steam pot squab, so they still have to take out the large steam pot and pair it with the free-range chicken that Lao Huang sent early in the morning, and also with Panax notoginseng.

Only then can you make a delicious pot of Panax notoginseng steam pot chicken.

In addition to steam pot chicken, there are also ham steamed pancakes, fried chicken and fir steamed eggs, Dali fish casserole, Baoshan fire gourd beef, Tengchong fried bait cubes, bamboo tube rice, pineapple rice, mint beef and other dishes.

In fact, it is not difficult to make this kind of rice, and it can even be tricky.

For example, if you prepare a table of dishes and serve them with various dipping sauces, isn’t this a table of southern Yunnan cuisine?

But after all, this is a dinner treat for one of your own, so you can't just think about completing the task. You still have to prepare some of the dishes that should be prepared.

For example, now, after Lin Xu has prepared all the dishes to be prepared, he starts to make the dish for today - Wuding cold chicken.

This is the dish that Shen Jiayue has been thinking about for two days. She really wants to know what chicken that tastes better than plain chicken would look like.

In order not to disappoint this girl, he had already prepared the white brine for soaking the cold chicken yesterday.

The so-called white brine refers to the stewed soup obtained by adding spices such as grass fruits, star anise, licorice, and ginger into the broth, and then adding some cooked chicken fat.

There are no colored condiments such as light soy sauce and soy sauce in this kind of soup, and there are no coloring spices such as chili peppers, so it is called white brine.

White brine is the brine that is put into the chicken for soaking after it is cooked. It needs to be boiled before use, and then placed in the cold storage to accelerate cooling. It can only be used to cool the chicken after it is completely cooled.

When making Wuding cold chicken, the most important thing is actually to use strong chickens fed by Wuding locals.

This kind of chicken is huge and has delicate meat. It grew up drinking mountain spring water and eating various Chinese herbal medicines. The meat is delicious and energetic. It is the highest quality chicken in southern Yunnan and the first choice for cooking southern Yunnan cuisine.

But this kind of chicken was not available in the north, so Lin Xu chose free-range chicken sent by Lao Huang.

Although free-range chicken is not a strong chicken, its quality is good, and it is more than enough to make cold chicken.

I told the driver when I left last night, so the white stewed soup has been heated up and brought to the cold storage to cool down.

Lin Xu was worried that one chicken would not be enough to eat, so he specially prepared two more.

There are three chickens in total. This amount should be enough to make cold chicken.

The three chickens have been slaughtered, but if they want to taste good, they need further cleaning.

Pour a bag of salt on a large tray, Lin Xu put the chicken on it, then grabbed the salt and began to rub the chicken vigorously.

Table salt can properly clean the impurities in the pores, and can also remove the fine chicken feathers. After scrubbing in this way, the chicken skin will be cleaner, and the feeling in the mouth will naturally become better.

After all three chickens are washed, you can proceed to the next step.

The washed salt will be poured into hot water and simmered by the kitchen assistant later. When the salt is completely melted, filter it with gauze to remove impurities. The remaining salt water can be added to the brine as salt water.

Don't worry about adding too much or too little salt water. With a salinity meter, salt water is even more effective than adding table salt directly.

After cleaning, boil a pot of water and add two flattened yellow gardenias, sand ginger, grass fruits and other spices into it.

After the water boils, simmer for a while, then lift the chicken and put it into the pot, lift it up again, pour out the water in the abdominal cavity, and put it back into the pot again.

After three rises and three falls, a chicken is replaced.

Blanch all the chicken, put it into the pot, and simmer slowly over low heat.

"How long does this have to cook?"

Zhu Yong didn't know much about plain-cut chicken, so he asked out of curiosity.

Lin Xu said:

"The three-yellow chicken you bought will be ready in half an hour, but this free-range chicken will take more than forty-five minutes. You can't rush it. It has to be cooked thoroughly."

When making this dish, the soup in the pot should not boil. It is best to keep it between 85 and 90 degrees, and slowly soak the chicken in hot water. This will give it a better taste and a richer flavor.

After the chicken was cooked, Lin Xu started working on other dishes.

Outside the kitchen, Shen Jiayue was busy sending a message to Chen Yan:

"We had chicken and fir soup noodles this morning. It tasted great, the soup was fresh and delicious, and the noodles were very smooth. What did you eat, Yan Bao?"

“Poached eggs on a whole wheat sandwich.”

Is it so healthy?

Shen Jiayue blinked. She originally wanted to show off in front of Yan Bao, but in the end she felt like she was being shown off in the opposite direction.

Nowadays, everyone is busy losing weight. Whoever eats healthier will be superior to others.

Chen Yan was now arrogant:

"We won't go to the store for lunch today. We are going to ride a bicycle with Lucy to Miyun. We will go as far as we can to squeeze our body's potential."

"Today we are eating southern Yunnan cuisine. Don't you want to try it?"

Chen Yan replied:

"Food is what I want, and beauty is what I want. You can't have both. Those who give up delicious food for beauty..."

Hum hum, you have a master's degree in Chinese, you can finally kill your cousin.

At the gate of a park near Wangjing, Chen Yan, wearing a cycling uniform, was waiting for the large army to meet, with a proud smile on her face.

However, just as she was about to say a few more words, Shen Jiayue replied:

"Yan Bao, do you know the reason why many people suddenly become frustrated after successfully losing weight?"

Chen Yan posted a question:

"What is it?"
