Chapter 813: Convinced
This Jinling Beauty Liver is actually a stir-fried dish made from duck pancreas.
Since duck pancreas is so rare, at least fifty or sixty ducks are needed to make one dish, so few restaurants will make this dish.
Even in a restaurant that can make this dish, if you want to eat this dish, you have to make a reservation in advance.
On the plate, pieces of slender pink and white duck pancreas are triangular in shape, like fish liver, and appear quite tender and smooth.
When Li Yi picked it up with chopsticks, he could feel its tender yet smooth texture.
Putting it into his mouth, Li Yi tasted it carefully.
The taste of duck pancreas is quite special, mainly tender and smooth, much tenderer than stir-fried kidney.
However, the heat of frying this beauty liver is a little light. Perhaps in order to rush for time, it is slightly raw and cooked on the way to the delivery, so it has a fishy smell that is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish.
Most people can't taste it, but Li Yi can really taste it.
But he didn't say anything, he just looked at the stewed raw meat in the soup cup on the other side.
Stewed Shengkou is also a famous dish in Jinling. It is made of long fish, that is, eel.
However, unlike the way eels are cooked in other places, people here in Jinling will pound the eels with a rolling pin to loosen the eel meat and then stew it. The taste of the stewed eel meat will be very different.
This is a stew. You can't rush it like stir-fry. It has to be stewed with enough heat, so it usually won't overturn.
The eel meat segments and pork slices in the soup cup are mixed together, soaked in thick dark brown soup, and topped with a steamed pigeon egg and a blanched green vegetable.
Li Yi scooped up a piece of eel meat with a spoon, put it into his mouth, tasted it carefully, chewed it up and swallowed it, and then nodded.
Several chefs have been observing Li Yi's expression.
When they saw Li Yi eating a perfect human liver without saying anything, they all became concerned.
But after seeing Li Yi nodding after eating the stewed raw meat, they all exchanged glances and showed uncontrollable smiles.
However, Li Yi remained silent. After tasting the squirrel fish, egg shaomai, anchovy shrimp, Yipin Family Portrait and other dishes, he took the thermos box and planned to eat it with some white rice.
The chef on the side saw his intention and hurriedly came forward to help him get a bowl of rice, handed it to him, and asked with a smile: "Master Li, can you give me some advice?"
Li Yi was not polite. He pointed at the dishes with chopsticks and briefly commented: "The stewed raw meat is good. The meat will be more delicious if it is stir-fried a little drier. The fat meat is still a bit greasy, but the long fish tastes very good. It is wild." Long fish.
The anchovy shrimps were also good. The river shrimps were very fresh, had a good taste, and were smooth and chewy. However, there was a little less salt, but it didn’t hurt.
The egg siomai is also good. It uses small green dragon, right? You can eat large pieces of shrimp meat and enjoy it.
These dishes are good, but other dishes have more or less problems.
Beautiful liver is not heated enough, has raw core, and tastes a little fishy.
The squirrel fish was over-fried, the oil temperature did not rise and the oil was not changed. The shell was not crispy enough and the meat was dry. The sweet and sour sauce was well prepared and the basics were OK.
This family portrait is almost uninteresting. The meat wrapped in louvered leaves lacked the flavor because it was not stewed long enough..."
Listening to Li Yi's comments, several chefs stood aside with their hands down, listening carefully, like students listening to a teacher's instructions.
Although Li Yi looked more like their student, they were trembling in front of Li Yi, and their heads were covered with sweat.
The reason is also very simple, because the problems Li Yi mentioned are all problems that hit the nail on the head and directly poked at their lung tubes.
It was as if Li Yi was watching from the side while they were cooking. He could even taste the temperature of the oil in each dish.
After some reviews, several chefs were convinced. "Master Li, you are so awesome. I fried this beauty's liver. I was in a hurry. I didn't turn it three or four times. You can taste it and I'm convinced."
“No wonder Master Hao is your second chef! Your cooking skills are so strong, amazing!”
Facing their repeated compliments, Li Yi smiled and didn't care.
He picked up the rice bowl and started eating. After a while, he had eaten all the vegetables and rice.
After drinking the tea, Li Yi put down the cup and burped.
Taking the napkin from the head chef, Li Yi asked him: "What's your last name?"
The chef smiled and replied: "My surname is Zhou, just call me Lao Zhou."
The beauty liver was made by him.
“Master Zhou.”
Li Yi nodded, then pointed to the empty plate on the table and ordered: "Tomorrow morning, make another table of these dishes and send them over."
Master Zhou was stunned when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed: "Okay! I'll come over in person tomorrow morning!"
Li Yi obviously wanted to give them some advice. This opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he would not miss it.
Getting up with satisfaction, Li Yi waved his hand and turned back into the workshop.
Director Zhu came up to them and asked with concern: "Are they satisfied with the food? If not, I will ask them to find another restaurant."
“It’s okay, it’s fine.”
Li Yi didn't take it seriously. He glanced at Mu Fang who had just finished the car, then at Director Zhu and the subordinates behind him, and said, "Director Zhu, you are also very busy, so don't follow me here. It’s been a waste, you should be busy with your business, just leave this matter to me.”
Director Zhu heard this and hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay. I don't have anything to do these days. There are people watching down here, so there's nothing that I can do."
Seeing that he was not on the right track, Li Yi had no choice but to speak more clearly: "You are of no use here and you are disturbing my train of thought. I am used to working alone.
You should stay away from here for the next few days. Just leave someone to work for me. Just let Master Zhou and the others deliver the food. If there is any progress here, I will contact you as soon as possible. "
Hearing what he said, Director Zhu couldn’t hold on any longer.
He hesitated for a moment, then turned around and called: "Xiao Zhao, come here."
Xiao Zhao was the young man responsible for contacting the wood processing factory. When he arrived, Director Zhu told him: "You stay here with Mr. Li these days. Be diligent. If Mr. Li needs anything, you can help him." Try to find a way to be as satisfied as possible, and if you can't figure it out, contact me as soon as possible. Once the matter is settled, I will give you an advanced rating at the end of the year."
"clear."
Xiao Zhao agreed wholeheartedly.
Director Zhu was still worried. After explaining it carefully, he said to Li Yi: "If you need any help, just ask Xiao Zhao."
Seeing Li Yi agree, he reluctantly led the people out of the processing factory.
After watching them leave, Li Yi said to Xiao Zhao standing aside: "I usually don't need your help, so just wait at the door. If there is any need, I will call you. Don't let anyone else do it at other times." Just come in.
Also, I should sleep here at night. If you stay, you have to consider where to live. You can solve this yourself. In short, don't disturb me if nothing happens. "
After finishing speaking, Li Yi drove him out of the workshop and then closed the workshop door.
Back in front of the sawing machine, Li Yi looked at the piled wood, moved his wrists, and said to himself: "Then let's get started!"
