Chapter 105: Cold Jellyfish
Oh my god, this smell is so fragrant and delicious!
How can this shrimp be so delicious?
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fresh, sweet and smooth.
Even though they have been chefs for so many years.
They had never eaten shrimp so delicious.
What kind of fairy shrimp is this?
The sauce was so noisy, with more than a dozen kinds of spices alone.
Logically speaking, with so many spices in it, the sauce must taste fragrant, astringent, and bitter.
What's more, Mo Qingyan added so many other things.
Logically, the flavor of this sauce should be more complex.
However, instead of being messy, the sauce blends quite harmoniously.
This sauce has a very strong aroma as soon as you take a bite.
However, this fragrance, although strong, does not choke the throat.
Instead, it tastes like the expensive aged wine from China, salty and fragrant with a slight spiciness. Slightly spicy, with a hint of sweetness.
The flavor of this sauce is not single, but layered.
This kind of sauce not only does not cover up the freshness of the shrimps, but instead highlights the sweetness of the shrimps.
In particular, Mo Qingyan grasped the flavor of the shrimp just right, with its fresh, sweet, crispy and tender taste, which made them all marvel at it.
They couldn't believe that Mo Qingyan's teppanyaki shrimp could taste so amazing.
No wonder Gao Moqi gave full marks to this iron plate shrimp.
With this taste, anyone would get full marks.
If you don't give full marks, it means you are nitpicking and finding fault on purpose.
"Mr. Mo, I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry Mr. Mo."
“We are too narrow-minded.”
“We were wrong.”
A group of chefs stood in a row and bowed their heads to apologize to Mo Qingyan.
They apologized for their arrogance, their prejudice against Mo Qingyan, and their doubts about Mo Qingyan's cooking skills.
Mo Qingyan sneered, "You don't just have to apologize to me, right? Judge Gao almost had to go to the food party for tea because of what you said just now."
This is simply that the biggest impact is not on him, but on Gao Moqi.
As a gourmet, if he loses the image of fairness and selflessness in the public's mind, then his career as a gourmet will be over.
Mo Qingyan can allow others to question him, but she does not allow others to slander Gao Moqi.
Mo Qingyan's words made several people blush and feel ashamed.
They also knew that on the surface they seemed to respect Gao Moqi, a first-class state banquet gourmet judge.
However, when he questioned Gao Moqi just now, there was no mercy in his words.
"I'm sorry, Judge Gao."
"I'm sorry, Judge Gao. I apologize for questioning you just now."
"I'm very sorry, Mr. High Judge. I shouldn't have denied your evaluation without confirmation. I was too careless."
"Don't worry, if there are any negative comments about you and Mr. Mo on the Internet, we will come out and clarify it in person."
…
Mo Qingyan's cooking skills conquered several chefs.
They now have nothing to say about Mo Qingyan's cooking skills.
Because it is impossible for them to make that kind of taste.
It was at this time that they realized that the online reviews of Mo Qingyan's cooking skills were actually true.
There is not a trace of falsehood in it.
When Xu Yi and others saw several chefs apologize, they instantly felt that their mammary ducts were unblocked.
"Haha, you're slapped in the face, right?"
"Anyone who dares to question Brother Mo's cooking skills will be slapped in the face."
"We all know that although Brother Mo is not a professional chef, his cooking skills are better than even professional chefs."
"Haha, I think the most innocent one is the high judge. Ever since the high judge met our Mo Ge, his career has been challenged. He keeps jumping between continuing and ending."
…
A small plate of teppanyaki shrimp conquered everyone present.
Those agents who agreed to let their star artists follow over now feel that their choice was absolutely correct.
Because this teppanyaki shrimp is really delicious.
However, the teppanyaki shrimp is just an appetizer.
At the back, there are all kinds of grilled squid, grilled glutinous rice, and grilled fish fillets.
Mo Qingyan was happy cooking, after all, it was rare to come across so many fresh ingredients.
Gao Moqi and others also enjoyed the meal very much.
Finally, the food that was caught was other than jellyfish.
All the other seafood is gone. Even a few crabs were fried on the iron plate by Mo Qingyan.
However, even so, everyone was still not satisfied with the meal.
Even though they have a lot of food, they also have a lot of people!
There are already dozens of staff members in the program team alone.
Plus these guests, the blind date guest agents, and Mo Qingyan’s ten fans.
There are hundreds of people here.
Although everyone had dinner.
However, knowing that Mo Qingyan was going to cook herself tonight, no one ate much.
Everyone is saving their stomachs, waiting to eat the delicious food made by Mo Qingyan!
"Brother Mo, are you going to cook this jellyfish? They were fighting for the food so fiercely just now, I couldn't get it anymore!" Song Beichen slurped his saliva as he looked at the only remaining ingredient, the jellyfish.
"Can't snatch it? Song Beichen, you are getting better and better at lying!" Yin Yiyi looked down on him in disbelief, "The half fish you snatched from my plate just now was fed to the pigs, right?"
Just now, Yin Yiyi had managed to grab a yellow croaker.
This yellow croaker is not very big, but the meat is delicious!
Yin Yiyi managed to grab one with great difficulty, but in the blink of an eye, Song Beichen unethically snatched away half of it.
Yin Yiyi herself wasn’t full.
"He also stole half of my fish!" Qi Na also accused Song Beichen.
Tao Zui couldn't bear to watch it anymore and said, "Okay, Xiaobei, the high judge caught so many fish, but he didn't eat much himself. All of them went into our stomachs. He didn't say anything, so you can just eat as much as you want."
"Well then." Song Beichen said with a wronged look on his face: "I really am not full."
He really didn't eat enough.
Now it’s only eight points at most.
If you don’t eat enough of Mo Ge’s delicious food, doesn’t that mean you haven’t eaten it at all?
In fact, many people present had eaten quite a bit. They couldn’t be said to be completely full, but like Song Beichen, they were definitely about 80% full.
It’s just that because Mo Qingyan’s cooking was so delicious, everyone felt that they were still wanting more.
But they were too embarrassed to tell Mo Qingyan. After all, as the head chef this time, Mo Qingyan himself didn’t eat much.
He only ate a little bit of almost everything.
"Shall we make the remaining jellyfish?" Gao Moqi couldn't help himself at this time and asked Mo Qingyan.
“Can sizzling jellyfish taste good?”
"I don't know. The jellyfish I ate before weren't very tasty."
"The jellyfish I ate before didn't taste very good either."
"The sizzling jellyfish made by Brother Mo should be delicious, right?"
"Of course, what doesn't taste good? Even if it's iron plate paper towels, people will probably go crazy for them."
A drop of sweat appeared on Mo Qingyan's forehead. Iron plate tissue? Sorry, even though there was only one ingredient left, he wasn't going to go so far as to make paper towels for them to eat.
However, when Mo Qingyan heard them say that the jellyfish they had eaten before was not delicious, she became curious.
"Judge Gao, how was the jellyfish you ate before prepared?"
"Stir-frying and stewing are pretty much the only two options. Is grilled jellyfish suitable?"
This is not Gao Moqi questioning Mo Qingyan's cooking skills.
To be honest, the taste of jellyfish as a seafood ingredient is really not that good.
As a gourmet, Gao Moqi has eaten a lot of jellyfish.
But jellyfish is such a magical ingredient that it tastes bad no matter how you cook it.
However, Gao Moqi had never eaten grilled jellyfish before, so he didn’t know if the jellyfish would taste good if it was cooked on grilled plate.
However, when I think of the sauce made by Mo Qingyan, everything with that sauce will taste good!
Stir-fry or stew?
Mo Qingyan widened her eyes in great surprise.
The original owner had never eaten jellyfish, so he didn't know how this jellyfish was cooked.
But Mo Qingyan had eaten a lot of jellyfish and knew that the best way to cook jellyfish was not to stir-fry or stew it, but to eat it cold.
If you stir-fry or stew jellyfish, it will not only destroy the nutritional value of the jellyfish itself, but also the taste of the jellyfish.
The jellyfish that is stir-fried or stewed will become soft and tender. The jellyfish has completely lost its inherent elasticity.
Mo Qingyan took a deep breath. He felt that he had to save the image of Jellyfish in the eyes of Gao Moqi and others.
He said, "We won't cook the remaining jellyfish on the sizzling plate. You've all eaten so much sizzling food, so let's cook the jellyfish in a different way. And give you a different taste."
The seafood cooked on this iron plate is delicious.
However, it is also easy to get angry.
Jellyfish has the effects of clearing away heat, reducing phlegm, moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements.
Just right.
"Choose a different way to eat it? How are you going to do it?" Gao Moqi couldn't think of how else to cook the jellyfish.
After all, although that thing has high nutritional value, it really doesn’t taste that good when it’s cooked.
Under everyone's curious gaze, Mo Qingyan replied, "Cold."
"Cold salad?"
Gao Moqi was stunned.
"Cold jellyfish?" Xu Yi asked in surprise, "Can jellyfish be served cold?"
Fresh jellyfish cannot be eaten raw.
Eating jellyfish raw can easily cause food poisoning.
Moreover, if the jellyfish is not cooked, it is easy to cause gastrointestinal discomfort after eating, and it is extremely easy to induce gastroenteritis.
Therefore, many people subconsciously think that jellyfish must be cooked.
And it needs to be thoroughly cooked.
Therefore, many people cook jellyfish by stir-frying or stewing.
However, the taste of jellyfish cooked in this way does become very bad.
"You will know once you have tried it."
Mo Qingyan didn't waste time talking to them, but directly asked the chefs to separate the jellyfish skin and jellyfish head, and then cut them into strips.
The taste of jellyfish skin and jellyfish head is actually different.
The jellyfish skin has a smooth texture, while the jellyfish head has a crispier and more tender texture.
After cutting the jellyfish skin and jellyfish head into strips, soak them in water, then add some white vinegar and then lemon slices and soak them.
The purpose of doing this is to remove the fishy smell of jellyfish.
During the soaking process, boil water.
After the water boils, put the jellyfish skin strips and jellyfish heads into different pots and blanch them quickly.
The blanching time is very important.
The time cannot be too short, otherwise the jellyfish will still be raw, and if it is too long, it will be too cooked and affect the taste.
After Mo Qingyan managed the time well, she fished out the blanched jellyfish skin strips and jellyfish heads.
Then, start preparing the cold side dishes.
Cut the cucumber and carrot into shreds, chop the coriander and green onions, and throw them into the plate with the jellyfish.
Then add minced garlic, shredded ginger, aged vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, appropriate amount of salt and sugar.
Then, add a little bit of the soul sauce made by Mo Qingyan.
Then stir well.
The method is very simple.
"The way you make it is very similar to how you make cold noodles." Gao Moqi knew how Mo Qingyan made cold noodles.
Mo Qingyan's method of preparing cold jellyfish salad is so different from that of preparing cold noodles.
It's exactly the same.
"Yes, it's the same." Mo Qingyan said: "This is the universal method of making cold dishes. As long as you make cold dishes, following my method, even if you are an idiot in cooking, basically, the taste will not be bad."
Mo Qingyan took out a small plate and put some cold jellyfish skin and some cold jellyfish heads on it.
Then he said to the chefs, "Okay, you can start serving the food."
Is this done?
Several chefs looked at each other.
Isn’t this approach too simple? Is this edible?
You know, Mo Qingyan’s cold dish doesn’t even contain MSG.
Generally, a lot of ingredients are added to cold dishes.
Especially MSG, chicken essence and so on, they are put in a lot.
No matter how strong the taste is, it doesn’t matter.
However, they had already been severely slapped in the face once for questioning Mo Qingyan.
They learned their lesson this time. Before they had eaten and tasted the cold jellyfish, they would never have given any comments.
Mo Qingyan ate the cold jellyfish first.
Although the jellyfish skin is not as crispy as the jellyfish head, it is very smooth.
Except for the special sauce, the rest of Mo Qingyan's cold dressing seasoning is made according to the cold dressing ingredients for making cold noodles.
In fact, this is the universal ingredient formula for cold dishes.
If you follow this method of preparing the ingredients, the taste will basically not be too bad.
Of course, the final soul sauce can further enhance the taste of this cold dish.
This chewy cold jellyfish skin is fresh, fragrant, smooth, crispy and refreshing.
Because I had eaten too much teppanyaki seafood, my taste buds had been somewhat tainted by the strong flavor.
However, this mouthful of cold jellyfish instantly suppressed the greasy taste brought by the grilled seafood. The refreshing, sour and spicy taste will awaken the tired appetite again.
The taste of cold jellyfish heads is better than that of cold jellyfish skins.
The crispy, tough and smooth taste makes people unable to stop.
“Woo woo, it’s so delicious.”
"Oh my god, this jellyfish salad is so delicious!"
"Wow, this texture and taste are just amazing."
"Why do I feel that this cold jellyfish is even more delicious than cold noodles?"
“It is indeed more fragrant than cold noodles. The taste is also better.”
"It smells so good and tastes so good. Hey, don't fight over it, leave some for me!"
…
Two large plates of jellyfish salad looked like a lot.
However, the food tasted so good and there were so many people!
In a moment, all was divided.
If Mo Qingyan hadn't taken the initiative to pretend to have some, I'm afraid even he wouldn't be able to eat it.
Gao Moqi, Tao Zui and others stood at the front, close to the water and filled a plate in no time.
Even Gao Moqi was eating with a clatter.
What elegance, what image, what is that?
At this moment, all they could see was the cold jellyfish, and they couldn't see anything else.
Some of the program crew members at the back haven’t gotten one yet!
Our Director Guo is so fast.
He is the fastest among the entire program crew.
Just put it on a plate.
Although it is called a plate, it is actually just a few big bites.
I finished it in no time.
After finishing the meal, he was still not satisfied and kept looking at the big plate of cold jellyfish.
As a result, the dishes were so clean that they hardly needed to be washed.
Those chefs also grabbed it.
After they ate it, they found it was truly amazing!
The taste of this cold jellyfish salad was so shocking that they were shocked.
For the first time, they realized that jellyfish could be so chewy, smooth, crispy, chewy and delicious.
This Mr. Mo is simply amazing.
How on earth did he come up with this magical idea?
At this time, several chefs were already full of admiration for Mo Qingyan.
"Judge Gao, how would you rate my cold jellyfish?" Mo Qingyan asked Gao Moqi with a smile.
Although Gao Moqi seemed to eat slowly, his speed was not slow at all.
This cold jellyfish salad clearly hits his gourmet spot.
He ate without even looking up.
Mo Qingyan didn't need to ask, she knew that Gao Moqi would definitely give her full marks.
Because even he himself would give full marks to this cold jellyfish.
Of course, the full score is all thanks to the soul sauce at the end.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve a perfect taste with just the cold ingredients mentioned above.
This cold jellyfish dish, like cold noodles, is perfect for summer eating.
"Full marks."
As expected, Gao Moqi gave a perfect answer.
Unexpectedly, Gao Moqi continued, "I gave you full marks, not because your jellyfish salad is only worth full marks. It's because the full mark is only 100 points. I can only give you 100 points."
This cold jellyfish dish is even more amazing than cold noodles.
Both the texture and taste are better than Liangpi.
Especially in terms of the word "fragrant", it is at least half as fragrant as cold noodles.
Of course, this is all thanks to the soul sauce specially prepared by Mo Qingyan.
Gao Moqi's evaluation was somewhat beyond Mo Qingyan's expectations.
"Judge Gao, I am somewhat flattered by your evaluation!"
Gao Moqi said righteously: "No, your jellyfish salad is worth it."
The live broadcast room has not been closed yet.
Because Mo Qingyan is cooking tonight, the live broadcast will not end until 10:30.
The fans in the live broadcast room were drooling at this moment.
Although they can't smell or taste the cold jellyfish.
However, judging from the way Gao Moqi and others ate and their comments.
I know that this cold jellyfish is really too delicious.
"Oh, no. I can't bear it anymore. I'll go to the market and buy some jellyfish tomorrow. I'll make some jellyfish salad myself."
"I'll go buy some jellyfish tomorrow. If I can't eat Brother Mo's, then I'll just eat a lower-end version of Brother Mo's cold jellyfish."
"What kind of god-level cooking skill is this, Brother Mo? How did he come up with this idea of making cold jellyfish?"
"Yes, look at the looks in the eyes of those chefs. They all want to worship Mo Qingyan as a god."
"The jellyfish salad is even better than cold noodles. You must try it."
"That's right. If you can't have Mo Ge's version, then try the low-end version. I'll place an order right now."
"Well, if you want to buy jellyfish, you should buy the jellyfish from H City. The taste will definitely be closer to Brother Mo's version of the cold jellyfish."
…
Then, in the middle of the night, the jellyfish on some online seafood platforms in H City were sold out.
Normally, not many jellyfish can be sold in a month.
Unexpectedly, all the jellyfish were sold out that night.
After eating the cold jellyfish, this ingredient is really gone.
After Taozui and others finished eating the cold jellyfish, they became more addicted to it.
Everyone is shouting that they are going to catch jellyfish tomorrow.
Mo Qingyan didn't have such a strong desire.
After eating and drinking, everyone ran over to sing.
All kinds of white, red and beer drinks were served throughout the night.
Even Mo Qingyan, who usually doesn't like drinking, got drunk.
Song Beichen and others were so drunk that they fell down.
In the end, it was Gao Moqi who sent Mo Qingyan back to her room.
What Gao Moqi didn't expect was that Mo Qingyan didn't act crazy after getting drunk.
On the contrary, he is particularly clingy.
Please note that this kind of stickiness really sticks to your body.
After Gao Moqi helped Mo Qingyan back to the room, Mo Qingyan hugged him directly.
The whole person hugged Gao Moqi tightly like a teddy bear, and was unwilling to let go no matter what.
Gao Moqi looked helplessly at Mo Qingyan who was hanging on him, "Mo Qingyan, let go. You need to take a shower and go to bed."
Mo Qingyan had been cooking teppanyaki seafood all night and her body was full of smell of oil smoke.
It doesn't stink, but smells good.
It’s like a plate of delicious seafood, making you want to take a bite.
"I won't, I won't, I won't."
Unexpectedly, Mo Qingyan, who usually looks quite steady, now seems like a unreasonable child.
He leaned his head on Gao Moqi's shoulder and hugged Gao Moqi's waist tightly with his hands.
Maybe it was because Mo Qingyan had been getting too close to him recently, even Gao Moqi, who usually didn't like people getting close to him, was so intimate with Mo Qingyan at this time. It doesn't matter anymore.
Or maybe it was because Gao Moqi subconsciously told himself that Mo Qingyan was drunk.
As a normal person who hadn't drunk any alcohol, he certainly couldn't argue with a drunk person who was no longer conscious.
Gao Moqi grabbed Mo Qingyan's hands, pushed him away from him, and said to him seriously, "Mo Qingyan, are you sure you don't want to take a shower? You will regret it tomorrow."
Mo Qingyan opened her sleepy eyes and looked at Gao Moqi aggrievedly, "No, I can't take a shower."
"Why can't I take a shower?" Gao Moqi asked puzzledly.
Hearing Gao Moqi's question, Mo Qingyan, who was originally drunk, suddenly took a few steps back.
The drowsiness in his eyes disappeared, and they became extremely bright.
It seemed as if everything returned to normal all of a sudden.
Then, Mo Qingyan walked to the door and closed the door that was originally open.
Then, he pulled the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Then he returned to Gao Moqi with a pair of bright eyes.
He said to Gao Moqi with a serious face: "Next, I will tell you a secret. You can't tell anyone. You have to swear first."
Seeing Mo Qingyan's serious look, Gao Moqi was stunned.
Mo Qingyan is not drunk?
Was he pretending to be drunk just now?
"You're not drunk?" Gao Moqi asked Mo Qingyan.
Mo Qingyan sneered, "You want to get me drunk with just that little wine?"
Well, it seems that Mo Qingyan was indeed pretending to be drunk just now.
"What secret do you want to tell?" Gao Moqi asked.
Mo Qingyan said: "You must swear first that you will not tell this secret to anyone, then I will tell you."
Still want to swear?
Although Gao Moqi is not the kind of gossipy person.
But since Mo Qingyan said so, Gao Moqi could only raise three fingers and swear.
"I swear that I will never tell anyone Mo Qingyan's secret. If you break my promise, then..."
Mo Qingyan added, "It will turn into a stupid pig fish."
Gao Moqi paused, looked at Mo Qingyan's unclear eyes, and said: If you disobey, you will become a stupid pig fish. ”
"Yeah, very good." After hearing Gao Moqi's oath, Mo Qingyan nodded with satisfaction.
Then, Mo Qingyan suddenly came in front of Gao Moqi and covered her mouth with her hands.
He said mysteriously, "I'm telling you in secret, don't tell anyone else. Actually... uh... actually I'm not a human."
"What did you say? Are you a human?" Gao Moqi was slightly stunned, thinking that he had heard wrongly. He looked at Mo Qingyan in surprise and said, "If you are not a human, then what are you?"
"I'm a mermaid. Shh... don't tell anyone!" Mo Qingyan said to Gao Moqi seriously, "Do you know why you caught so many fish today when you didn't catch any fish yesterday?"
Gao Moqi was confused by Mo Qingyan's word "mermaid". When he heard Mo Qingyan's question, his brain didn't react yet, but he asked, "Why?"
"Because I arranged it!" Mo Qingyan said matter-of-factly, "I asked those shrimp soldiers and crab generals to catch the fish and put it on your hook."
After saying that, Mo Qingyan actually stretched out her hands and hugged Gao Moqi's waist before Gao Moqi could react.
Gao Moqi was immediately shocked by the sudden hug.
I have absolutely no idea how to react.
But Mo Qingyan seemed to be unaware of what she had done. Not only did she hug Gao Moqi, she also rested her head on Gao Moqi's shoulder.
Then he said affectionately: "Gao Moqi, do you know? In order to marry you, I asked the Dragon King for a medicine that can turn my tail into legs. The medicine tasted terrible. After I took it, my tail turned into your human legs."
"Although it has become a leg, every step I take feels like I'm walking on the edge of a knife. It's so painful! But when I think about being with you, I'm not afraid of any pain."
"It's just that my legs can't get wet. If they get wet, they'll turn into a tail. My identity will be exposed. So, I can't take a shower."
Gao Moqi: "..."
Gao Moqi, whose muscles and nerves were tense, suddenly relaxed after hearing Mo Qingyan's "secret confession".
"Mo Qingyan, you are drunk."
If he wasn't drunk, how could he say such nonsense?
Gao Moqi stretched out his hand and tried to push Mo Qingyan away.
As a result, Mo Qingyan held his waist tightly, unwilling to let go, and shouted: "I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk. Gao Moqi, everything I said is true."
As if afraid that Gao Moqi wouldn't believe her, Mo Qingyan put her arm around his waist and led him to the bed.
"Come, sit down first, and I will slowly tell you the truth of the matter."
Looking at Mo Qingyan, who was hugging his waist, opening a pair of clear (stupid) eyes, and seriously began to tell him the "truth".
Gao Moqi: "..."
