Chapter 11 Two-grade white jade soup?

   Onion, ginger, garlic, coriander, leek and even celery are a special category.

   For some people, these things are favorites, and for others, these things are "anti-human". Love and hate are two polar opposites. Well, this is what Xu Guangling learned from Young Master Jia, and it was when he was eating barbecue in Yuxi the other night.

   At that time, because there were grilled leeks on the barbecue stall, Jia Gongzi, a food lover, and the writer of several food columns popularized it for two laypeople, Dasha and Xu Guangling.

   For these things, Xu Guangling has no particular fondness, nor particular dislike, and is considered a rare "peaceful person".

At home, when his mother was cooking fish, he would put some coriander. When his father was eating noodles, he would make some garlic into garlic paste and pour soy sauce. Others, such as when stewing ribs, would put some green onion and ginger, and then, leeks. Dumplings and fried shredded pork with celery are also not uncommon dishes on the Xu family's table.

   Therefore, Xu Guangling really does not care about these things.

   It’s just that when I cook by myself in the past few years, I usually don’t bother to play with these things, and occasionally buy the last one, so in general, Xu Guangling is still a bit unfamiliar with it.

   In yesterday's dream, the "Nine-Pin White Jade Soup" consisted of only three ingredients: potatoes, tofu, mushrooms, and salt. Other than that, there were no other ingredients! It was so refreshing and simple that Xu Guangling was surprised.

   has returned to the rented place, at this time Xu Guangling is packing the things he bought.

   Put the yuba in the cupboard. This thing is not eaten for a while, and it can be stored for a long time, so you don’t have to worry about it. Although mushrooms were used in Jiupin Baiyu Soup, what he bought today was not the chicken leg mushroom shown in his dream, but an unknown wild mushroom, so Xu Guangling could not rashly use it as a substitute. .

  Although they are both mushrooms, they are very different from each other, with different textures, textures and tastes. As far as Xu Guangling knows and is more familiar with, oyster mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, mushrooms, and enoki mushrooms are different.

  Mushrooms are stored in the refrigerator, not used today, ready to eat tomorrow.

   The rest are potatoes and tofu, two servings of potatoes, half of one portion is randomly taken, and then half of the tofu is also cut, and the rest are also placed in the refrigerator.

   About half a catty of potatoes and tofu is Xu Guangling's breakfast, lunch and dinner today. Three meals are condensed into one meal, which saves time and trouble. This is the way of doing things in the new era. Xu Guangling planned to make a simple and simplified version of "Nine-Pin White Jade Soup" just as he had dreamed yesterday.

   But because of the lack of chicken leg mushrooms, I don't know what will happen to the things made.

   is like a tripod, with three legs standing firmly on the ground, but if you remove one leg, don’t say anything about being stable, you can’t stand up just by standing. Without the mushrooms, Xu Guangling didn't expect to be able to make "seven-grade white jade soup", because the tofu was also unqualified, and he didn't plan to do both of the shredded potatoes, so, um, just be honest," Two kinds of white jade soup"?

  The potatoes are cleaned, peeled, and shredded.

   While doing this kind of treatment, Xu Guangling found out as expected that everything was really different from before!

   If it was said that he was only an apprentice before, no, in fact, he was far from the level of an apprentice, and he was not even a rookie and could only be called a rookie! But at this time, Xu Guangling felt that he had transformed into a national-level chef.

I didn't use any special handling tools. I used to buy cheap kitchen knives for five dollars a piece in the vegetable market. Then I used the kitchen knife and the potatoes in one hand. I turned, turned, turned, turned, and turned twice. The skin of the potatoes was scraped. And then, tick, tick, tick, tick!

   When Xu Guangling came back to his senses, the three potatoes were gone, replaced by neat and dense shredded potatoes on the cutting board. —Wait, this is shredded potatoes?

  Xu Guangling first stood and looked at it from a distance for a while, then he couldn't help but pick one out of it and put it in front of him to look carefully. As a layman who has never been exposed to cooking, at this moment, Xu Guangling just wanted to be amazed and praised.

   is too thin!

   How to fine-tune it?

   About one-fifth or even one-tenth the thickness of the shredded potatoes he cut in the past!

   But at this time, Xu Guangling also noticed that there was a slight numbness and tight pantothenic acid in the wrists and upper arms of both hands. This may be because of the dream yesterday, the consciousness of the brain is already in place, but the cooperation of the body is not yet in place?

   In any case, Xu Guangling was once again surprised by the performance of "self" just now.

  The next step is to shred the tofu, which is still very fine, but because there are shredded potatoes in the front, there is nothing to say about the shredded tofu. There is another point, that is, compared with the shredded tofu in the dream, this shredded tofu is simply "fat and round".

   It's not that the knife can't be cut finer, but the tofu is not supported.

   Therefore, indirectly, Xu Guangling knew how big the gap was between the tofu he bought and the tofu in his dream! Although, this may indeed already be the best tofu in the city.

   shook his head slightly, Xu Guangling just wanted to say that the world is really big.

   Changed yesterday, how did he know about such a doorway? What is the best in the whole city, it is simply outrageous! But at this time, even though there was no investigation and no trip to all the vegetable markets in the city, Xu Guangling could still make such a judgment with certainty. —Based on a thorough understanding of the entire process from soybeans to tofu!

After the    ingredients are processed, the next step is to cook.

   In fact, there is nothing to say about the cooking part, but it is just boiling water, and then when the heat is up, put in two ingredients one after another.

   When is the heat coming? Xu Guangling didn't even have the concept of heat in the past. For cooking, his only or only two concepts were "boil" and "boil". At this time, the water was burning, and he naturally knew , when the heat is up, you can put shredded potatoes, and after a while, when the heat is up, you can put shredded tofu.

   After a while, the heat is up and you can put salt.

   After a while, the heat is up and you can cook.

   But that's it!

Xu Guangling was doing all this with great sobriety, but in fact, he was confused, because all of this was so new to him, and it seemed that he had to do it by himself before the things in the dream would never be like a dream. Out of fantasy, into reality.

   I don’t say anything about the ninth-grade white jade soup, let’s just call it white jade soup.

But when the white jade soup was put into the bowl and brought the bowl to the dining table, before he could sit down, Xu Guangling could smell a faint but strong fragrance in the bowl he was holding. , is gradually and gradually, and gradually spreads out to the whole room.

   And the first thing to do is his nose.

   Next is his stomach.

   His stomach was hit by a sudden and violent air attack at this moment. —Cuckoo, cuckoo!

   Xu Guangling then remembered that when he just got up, his stomach was already hungry. After a busy day, I forgot about it. But at this time, when things are done, the forgotten hunger strikes with an unstoppable momentum.
