A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot

Li Yi didn't act as the shopkeeper, he had already soaked the second plate of eggplant strips in high broth, and then put them in the steamer to continue steaming.

He bought ten catties of dried eggplant, thinking that it would be enough.

But after learning that he was going to make [Eggplant], not only Huang Xiaoming and others wanted him to make more and bring them home for his family to try.

Even the staff of the program group secretly begged him to do more, and they were willing to pay for it.

After recording the program for a few days, Li Yi and everyone are familiar with it, and it's hard for Li Yi to refuse their request.

So, he simply called the market boss again and asked to send another forty catties of dried eggplants.

[Eggplant] After frying, it can be stored in the refrigerator for half a month. It is also good to make more as a gift.

But it’s okay to make so many [Eggplant], but if you want to dry it quickly, you have to use an oven with an air-drying function.

There are only two ovens provided by the sponsor, which are not enough.

Therefore, Li Yi directly asked Wang Tian to find a sponsor and send some ovens over.

The sponsor was also very straightforward, and immediately transferred four ovens from the store in Beijing.

A total of six ovens work together, and the pressure of drying the ingredients is much less.

Li Yi handed over the work of drying the eggplant sticks to Wu Lei, and then he started to pickle the chicks himself.

The chicks he bought this time are all used to make 【Clear Soup Vermicelli】.

One of the raw materials of [Clear Soup Vermicelli] is the chicken powder that is baked with air-dried chicks at a low temperature until they are completely crispy, and then ground.

But this work will take at least three days.

One day marinated, one day dried, one day roasted and ground.

Therefore, Li Yi took his time and spread the fried five-spice salt on the chicks, then put them into the freezer to marinate.

By this time tomorrow, it can be taken out and put in the oven to dry.

Looking at the time, it was already noon.

Li Yi came to the stove and started preparing for lunch.

Seeing Li Yi standing in front of the stove, Wu Lei swallowed suddenly.

Guji!

He swallowed a little loudly, and the others suddenly looked up.

"hey-hey!"

Wu Lei scratched his head and said with a smile: "I found that I have formed a habit now, and when I see Brother Yi stir the pot, I drool."

Hearing what he said, the others were all amused.

Zhao Jinmai joked: "You are a conditioned reflex, just like my dog, as soon as it hears me open the bag of dog food, it will immediately gallop over no matter where it is."

Wu Lei feigned anger: "Why? I'm a dog?"

"I'm just giving you an example."

Zhao Jinmai explained with a smile.

Li Yi in front of the stove said with a smile: "If you want to give an example of looking at plum blossoms to quench your thirst?"

"Yes! It's the feeling of wishing for plum blossoms to quench thirst!"

Wu Lei clapped his palms and said with a smile: "I suspect that in a few days, I will subconsciously drool when I see you."

"What? You still want to eat people?" Li Yi joked.

"Hey! Of course it's dinner!"

Wu Lei smiled and put the prepared eggplant strips into the oven, set the drying time, and rushed to Li Yi, asking, "Brother Yi, what shall we eat today?"

Li Yi took a plate of eggplant sticks that had been steamed together, and said casually: "Stir fry these eggplant sticks, and later stir-fry the bean sprouts prepared by Yifei and the others, and then make mapo tofu and order rice That's enough to eat."

"OK!"

Wu Lei couldn't wait any longer, rubbed his hands together and asked, "Can I help?"

"I don't need it right now."

Li Yi pointed to the direction of the oven: "Your main job is to help me make those eggplant sticks, this is the top priority."

"Okay! I'll do it now."

Wu Lei happily ran back to the oven: "Then I'll be waiting for dinner!"

"Brother Yi, the bean sprouts are ready."

Liu Yifei brought a plate of dressed bean sprouts to Li Yi for inspection.

Li Yi picked up one, looked at the shredded ham passing through the bean sprouts, and nodded: "Yes, this kind of bean sprouts are relatively thin, you can wear them like this, and when our bean sprouts come out, there will be no problem. Our bean sprouts are thicker than this one."

"Really? That would be great! I'm still worried that I won't dress well enough!"

Liu Yifei breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then what should I do next?"

Li Yi ordered: "Go and get those two wattle peppers that I dried the day before yesterday."

The day before yesterday, he dried some Erchatiao peppers and put them in the open space behind the imperial dining room.

"good."

Liu Yifei responded, then turned around and went to the yard. After a while, she came back with a dustpan of two vitex peppers that had been sunburned white.

Picking up the white two wattles in the dustpan, Liu Yifei asked in surprise: "Brother Yi, why did this pepper turn white? It was still green when I took it out to dry that day? Is it broken?"

"It's not bad, that's what I want."

Li Yi picked up a chili, looked at its slightly translucent white chili meat, and explained with satisfaction: "This is a local method in Hunan Province, which is first scalded with boiling water and then dried.

The high temperature will destroy the chlorophyllase in the pepper epidermal cells, and then put it in the sun for exposure.

When exposed to sunlight, the chlorophyllase in the chili will undergo photooxidation and begin to fade, and finally it will become this white chili. "

"Can it still be like this?"

Liu Yifei was surprised.

At this time, in the barrage in the live broadcast room, some viewers had already come out to testify for Li Yi.

"It's true! People from Hunan Province passed by, and the white chili fried carrots and beans are super delicious!"

"I planted peppers in my yard, and they turned white after a few days on the ground."

"Using absolute ethanol and acetone to soak it can also decolorize."

"Is there no white pepper in other places? We have it everywhere in Hunan Province. I thought it was available in the whole country!"

"Pickled peppers are also white, right? Isn't the pickled pepper in the pickled pepper chicken feet white? When I eat pickled pepper chicken feet, the pickled pepper inside is my favorite."

"In the past, there were pickled peppers in the chicken feet with pickled peppers, but now the pickled peppers are printed with pickled peppers."

"No way? No one really eats the pickled peppers in chicken feet, right? Isn't it too spicy?"

"Spicy food, no one in Hunan Province has ever been convinced!"

"People in Gan Province just smile and don't talk."

"There are people who can eat spicy food and people who can't eat it, right? Although I am in Guangdong Province, I can still eat spicy food."

"Hahaha!"

"Laugh!"

"You said you can eat spicy food. Do you put two packets of ingredients when you eat braised beef noodles?"

"Hahaha!"

"【angry】"

Liu Yifei also noticed the spicy food competition in the live broadcast room, eager to join the discussion, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am quite good at spicy food."

Li Yi looked at her, and a voice seemed to echo in his ears: "Hiss, it's not spicy..."

Without saying anything, he glanced at the peppers in the dustpan, and silently took out two more peppers.

Then, he ordered: "Go and steam the rice, you can eat later."
