Chapter 36: There is no fish in the fish-flavored shredded pork?
After Shen Huazheng returned home, Shen Zhaonian and his brothers Shen Keting finally lived a life with their daughter/sister's loving lunch box again.
Zhou Ying would go to the Shen residence almost every day to learn cooking from Shen Huazheng.
After Princess Lejia learned about this, she also joined this "study group".
But she really had no talent in cooking and couldn't even fry a whole egg. She learned excitedly for a few days, but couldn't keep going.
Zhou Ying does have some talent and perseverance.
She believed that one should not just learn the basics of anything and must take it seriously, and she directly brought out the perseverance she had when she learned martial arts.
Seeing his daughter constantly improving her cooking skills every day, as if she had found a new source of comfort, Zhou Cheng'an finally felt relieved and was very grateful to Shen Huazheng.
…
The taste of the shredded pork in fish-flavored pork is very important, and it is best to choose tenderloin.
Shen Huazheng placed the rinsed tenderloin on the chopping board, first sliced the tenderloin with a broach, then cut the slices into even shreds, and then began to marinate.
Zhou Ying cut the fresh bamboo shoots, carrots and fungus into shreds, blanched them in boiling water again, and brought them over after removing the odor.
Shen Huazheng put the marinated tenderloin aside and began to prepare the fish spice sauce.
She made a bowl of starch water and added cooking wine, sugar, vinegar and light soy sauce into it.
Zhou Ying was a little puzzled: "Zheng'er, there is no fish in this dish, why is it called Fish-flavored Shredded Pork?"
Chen Huazheng mixed the various seasonings in the bowl evenly. It smelled fragrant and sour, and the taste was just right.
[There is no fish in fish-flavored pork shreds, just like there is no wife in wife cakes and no plum blossoms in plum blossom cakes.]
Zhou Ying: ???
Wife cake? Plum blossom cake?
Chen Huazheng pointed to the prepared fish-flavored sauce and said, "There is indeed no fish in this dish, but the seasoning sauce is used to create a fish-flavored flavor, so it is called fish-flavored shredded pork."
Zhou Ying suddenly realized: "So that's it."
As expected of Zheng'er, she knows so many things.
Seeing that the meat was almost marinated, Qingzhi helped to light a pot while Qingtang went to get the dogwood jar.
When the pot began to smoke, Shen Huazheng poured a proper amount of oil into it.
The next second, she poured the shredded pork in the bowl into it.
The shredded pork tenderloin quickly separated, each strand clearly lying in the frying pan.
After all the shredded pork turned white, Shen Huazheng scooped out all the shredded pork from the pot.
Then pour in the scallion, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the dogwood and stir-fry until red oil comes out.
The pot was full of activity, and once the dogwood was added to the pot, the fragrance rose to a new level. At the same time, the strong and spicy smell of the dogwood was also diffused in the air.
The cooks around couldn't help but come over when they smelled the fragrance.
Chen Huazheng poured the shredded pork, bamboo shoots, carrots and fungus that had been set aside into the pot at the appropriate time.
A pot full of white and tender bamboo shoots, black wood ear mushrooms, orange radish, white pork, and red oil.
The colors in the pot suddenly became richer, and you could imagine how delicious it was just by looking at it.
Chen Huazheng poured the prepared fish-flavored sauce into the pot, and with a "sizzle" sound, a pleasant sound came from the pot.
In just a few seconds, the thick fish-flavored sauce in the pot wrapped around the shredded pork, and the color of the sauce gradually spread to the shredded pork.
The oil pan was bubbling with activity, and the fish-flavored pork shreds in the pan were all glowing with a shiny oily sauce, looking extremely tempting.
Everyone in the kitchen couldn't help but take a deep breath of the tempting aroma in the air, then looked at the already prepared shredded pork with fish flavor, and couldn't help swallowing.
Zhou Ying looked at the delicious shredded pork with fish flavor and suddenly felt a little hungry.
