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

In the live broadcast room, the audience was shocked when they heard that Li Yi was going to deal with wild puffer fish, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.

"No, brother Yi, it's over now! Can poisonous things be made casually?"

"I think it's better to entrust professional people to do professional things. People always have strengths but they can't catch them!"

"Brother Yi has already said that he can handle it, so he must understand! Who would take his own life as a joke?"

"Why don't you use non-toxic ones to train your hands? Poisonous ones are still too dangerous."

Seeing that Li Yi insisted on trying, the boss also hesitated.

From the conversation just now, and what he said to Li Yi, he can roughly judge that Li Yi should be quite knowledgeable.

At least he can call the names of two kinds of puffer fish in one mouthful, and he also knows the difference between raising puffer fish.

But slaughtering puffer fish is very dangerous, especially for this kind of poisonous puffer fish. Even the masters who have been there for many years can't guarantee absolute safety.

So, the boss decided to persuade him again: "Young man, listen to me, if you want to try this kind of non-toxic puffer fish, I will let you try it.

But this kind of chrysanthemum dolphin is poisonous, and the danger is indeed a bit high. Our certified masters must be careful when handling it.

Let me tell you something! Jingjiang is also a place to eat fugu. I know an old chef who cooks fugu there.

He is best at wild puffer fish, and he has never had any accidents.

But once, he came back from the restaurant, had a meal, picked his teeth with his nails, and died.

When he was handling the puffer fish, a puffer fish roe was left between his nails, and he ate it into his mouth, and died of poisoning as a result. "

"ah?"

Hearing the story he told, Zhao Jinmai's eyes widened: "One puffer fish died?"

"yes!"

The boss looked at Li Yi seriously: "So, handling puffer fish is still very dangerous, I advise you to think carefully about it!"

Hearing this, Li Yi thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Boss, to tell you the truth, I have actually handled quite a few puffer fish, but I have never passed the certification."

"real?"

The boss breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "You didn't say it earlier."

Li Yi smiled and suggested: "Why don't you do it like this! This puffer fish is just for me to use you as the back cook to practice. You can also give me pointers to see if I am good enough to test, how about it?"

Seeing what he said, the boss nodded: "If you want to say that, it's not impossible, but you must be careful."

"No problem, I have my sense of proportion."

Li Yi smiled and nodded, then raised his hand to take the scissors and kitchen knife handed over by the boss.

Seeing that he was really going to deal with the puffer fish, the kitchen helpers came over curiously.

A helper came over with a chopping board, put it in front of Li Yi, and signaled, "This is a chopping board for fugu slaughter."

There is often a set of special kitchen utensils for handling poisonous puffer fish, which must be separated from daily kitchen utensils to avoid danger.

Li Yi went to wash his hands carefully before returning to the chopping board.

He picked up the chrysanthemum dolphin from the basin and put it on the chopping board. Li Yi picked up the knife and slapped the chrysanthemum dolphin on the head twice.

The chrysanthemum dolphin twitched a few times, and then its body softened.

Seeing this, Li Yi used a knife to cut around the mouth of the puffer fish.

Then, Li Yi picked up the scissors and removed the puffer fish's eyes first.

His movements are very careful, this is one of the most poisonous places on the puffer fish, and it must not be broken.

The boss stood aside, looking at him nervously, for fear that he might make a mistake.

At first the boss was worried, but after seeing Li Yi's skillful movements, he was relieved a lot and even a little surprised.

"Hands are steady!"

He smiled and praised.

"fine."

Li Yi said politely with a smile, then cut open the skin of the puffer fish's mouth for a week, and then tore off the whole puffer fish's skin like tearing off a coat.

"Alas!"

Looking at this scene, Zhao Jinmai couldn't bear to look directly at it.

Seeing the pufferfish with only the skin around its mouth left, she couldn't help muttering: "Why don't you just peel off the whole thing? It's too strange to leave only the skin around the mouth."

Hearing what she muttered, Li Yi explained with a smile: "The skin of the puffer fish's mouth should be preserved, it's the essence of the puffer fish.

As the saying goes, the head of bighead carp and the tail of herring, the nose of saury and the mouth of puffer fish, the meat quality of the mouth of puffer fish is the tender mouth of puffer fish, and it is also the most delicious.

When the fugu was slaughtered in the Neon country, the mouth of the fugu was cut off completely, but we kept it on the body. "

"You really understand."

Hearing his explanation, the boss gave a thumbs up with a smile, and then added: "Puffers have powerful mouths. They eat corals in the sea, crabs, and snails in the river. They are very good at opening their shells.

It often uses its mouth, so the mouth is full of live meat, which tastes the best. "

Zhao Jinmai nodded again and again: "So that's the case, it sounds really good."

While speaking, Li Yi had already put the puffer fish skin aside, and then opened the puffer fish with scissors.

This is a male puffer fish with seminal vesicles in its stomach, which is the so-called Xi Shi milk.

After taking out the seminal vesicle, Li Yi carefully opened the intestines and removed the puffer fish's liver.

He moved carefully, but the boss who was watching from the side still looked nervous.

The most delicious part of the puffer fish is the puffer fish liver.

But fugu liver is not only poisonous, but next to it is the gallbladder.

The gallbladder of puffer fish is very thin and can be broken if not careful.

If the gallbladder is broken, the whole fish cannot be eaten, and it will definitely be poisoned.

Looking at the tender puffer fish liver, Li Yi's Adam's apple twitched slightly.

Although puffer fish liver is poisonous, its charming flavor also comes from this toxin.

Taste-hungry gourmets believe that the charm of puffer fish lies in the numbness of trace toxins and the stimulation of life and death hanging by a thread, which is called "tasteless".

Su Dongpo, who was once obsessed with fugu, even commented on fugu liver as "deserving of death" because of the excitement of eating fugu.

After taking out all the internal organs, Li Yi carefully washed the belly of the puffer fish, rinsing vigorously with a water hose.

Seeing Li Yi turn on the faucet to the maximum and not spare the clean water, Liu Yifei glanced at the boss and said with a smile: "Boss, when we pay the bill later, we will make up the water bill for you."

The boss was taken aback when he heard the words, and quickly waved his hands with a smile: "It's okay, you can't waste water when washing puffer fish, you have to wash it with big water, the cleaner the washing, the better.

The poison of the puffer fish makes the blood poisonous seeds swell and make the eyes dizzy, so the blood must be washed clean.

In fact, what you hear about eating puffer fish desperately should be called fighting to eat puffer fish. The most important thing for detoxification is the cleaning step. Do not save water, otherwise accidents will happen. "

"So this is ah!"

Liu Yifei suddenly realized, and then looked at Li Yi, and found that Li Yi had been rubbing the belly and flesh of the fish while cleaning.

Even after washing until it turned pale, he didn't stop. He was obviously trying to clean the blood from the fish's belly.

Seeing Li Yi's careful look, the boss also nodded in admiration: "Sure enough, I know how to kill puffer fish, so I underestimated people."
