Chapter 329 Steamed Vegetables
"Good afternoon, everyone~~~" Feeling a little guilty, Ye Jiaojiao stood still and greeted the audience softly.
On the side, Si Ming took in Ye Jiaojiao's performance and chuckled.
Jiaojiao, who feels guilty, is also very cute.
It had just been aired and after such a long interval, the audience was very enthusiastic at the beginning. There were a lot of comments about it being popular and explosive, which kept moving back and forth in the center of the big screen. Almost all of them were complaining to Ye Jiaojiao.
Now, when Ye Jiaojiao spoke in such a soft voice, not only did she fail to act cute, but she made the audience, who were already feeling aggrieved, feel even more aggrieved.
Live broadcast room comment area——
【Wow, we are not good at all】
[Yes! No! I'm so angry! !]
[After confirming her tone, this is our long-lost anchor lady. I don't even need to look, I can tell just by listening that she's feeling guilty.]
[It seems the host also knows that he has been waiting for us for a long time! ]
[Miss, it's not that we don't sympathize with you. Look at other streamers. When their fan base reaches a certain number, they get bonus episodes. When their rewards exceed a certain number, they get surprise extra episodes. Look at you, it's rare for you to not be absent.]
That is to say, barrage comments cannot be accompanied by emoticons, only text. Otherwise, at this time, the big screen would definitely be full of "extreme disgust" emoticons.
Because of her early experiences, Ye Jiaojiao would be a little shy in certain situations, and occasionally thick-skinned. At this moment, she felt guilty and her skin grew thicker rapidly.
"Let's get straight to the point. The host is visiting a friend's house right now, and wants to prepare a light meal in the evening, so I thought of making some steamed dishes." Ye Jiaojiao smiled and pretended to be stupid, then skipped everyone's complaints.
[Steaming food? Is it steaming food like steaming rice?]
[The taste is light? Does that mean it's not spicy? I'm a fire-type esper, and I feel really good when spicy food makes my mouth and stomach burn.]
"Steaming is a cooking method that uses the steam produced by boiling water as a heat transfer medium to mature food. In cooking, it can be used to make staple foods, snacks, and pastries." Ye Jiaojiao has made steamed dishes before, but not like today. She was preparing to make a table full of steamed dishes. Seeing that some viewers didn't quite understand, she explained the form of steaming to everyone.
After the explanation, the audience's attention had almost been diverted by the anticipation for the steamed dishes, and they had forgotten to complain about Ye Jiaojiao.
Glancing at Si Ming beside her, Ye Jiaojiao tugged at his sleeve and said to the big screen, "My Ah Ming said before that he wanted to learn cooking from me, so he followed me on screen today."
Identity recognition is enabled by default in Ye Jiaojiao’s live broadcast room. Except for her, anyone else who enters the camera range will be blurred.
In addition to mosaics, things like her own appearance and voice, as well as the last time Si Ming live-broadcasted for her, will also be adjusted.
In the audience's field of vision, there were two people standing behind the stove in the kitchen. Ye Jiaojiao's appearance had been adjusted, while Si Ming directly blocked his face.
As the Imperial Major General and the Light of the Empire, Si Ming's figure is very familiar to the people of the Empire even if they cover their faces. Si Ming simply stands behind the stove and does not appear in front of the camera with his full body.
It was so big that everyone noticed it as soon as the live broadcast room opened. However, at the beginning, everyone's attention was focused on Ye Jiaojiao. Now, after hearing Ye Jiaojiao mention it, the audience naturally reacted.
[Wait, the young lady means that the boss needs to help cook together???]
[No way! I still remember the smell of that roasted rabbit last time and I was too scared to speak.]
[The top guy on the list is taking action? Can we still eat it? ]
[It’s over, it’s over. I’m afraid today’s live broadcast is going to go wrong again.]
Si Ming did a live broadcast on behalf of Ye Jiaojiao. That time, he roasted a rabbit, which left a very deep impression on the audience.
That live broadcast was directly defined as the first car to fail. It was not Ye Jiaojiao's failure, but the first failure of the "I am a Chef" live broadcast room.
Being criticized, Si Ming glanced at the big screen calmly. Instead of feeling ashamed, he felt proud and retorted in a choking way: "You can choose not to eat it."
Live broadcast room comment area——
[QVQ嘤嘤嘤~~~Boss, you are so fierce and scary~~~]
[Miss, the big boss on the list is being mean to us, aren't you going to do anything about it?]
[I don't know if the big guy and the little girl will have a falling out today, but they definitely succeeded in distributing dog food, making single people jealous.]
"Well, okay, let's not waste time. It's already five o'clock, we should get started." After everyone had been making noise for a while, seeing that it was already five o'clock, Ye Jiaojiao did not delay any longer: "The first dish I want to make is steamed pork with lotus leaf flour."
Lotus leaf steamed pork belongs to Zhejiang cuisine and is a famous traditional dish.
In ancient China, it is said that its name is related to "Quyuan Fenghe" in the "Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake". Originally, this dish required fresh lotus leaves from a certain city, wrapped with fried rice noodles and seasoned pork, and then steamed.
The lotus leaves make the dish taste fresh, plump, soft and glutinous without being greasy. It can cool the blood and relieve fatigue, making it very suitable for consumption in summer.
In addition to the meat, the most important part of the lotus leaf steamed pork dish is the fried rice noodles. You can make it spicy or not according to your needs. Considering Uncle Aoqi's health, Ye Jiaojiao naturally couldn't make it spicy.
Wash the japonica rice and indica rice, drain and fry them in the sun. Turn on the fire and pour in a proper amount of oil. Put the star anise, galangal, cloves, osmanthus and rice into the pot together. Stir-fry over low heat until it turns yellow. Grind into fine powder after cooling.
Si Ming was not suitable for these delicate jobs, so Ye Jiaojiao asked him to process the ribs.
Si Ming didn't think it was a big deal to use a knife to cut the meat after using a gun. He showed his excellent knife skills. He scraped off all the fine hairs on the skin of the meat, washed it and cut it into ten evenly distributed rectangular blocks about six centimeters long, making a cut in the middle of each piece of meat.
The pieces are stacked steadily, neatly and beautifully.
After the preparations are done, the next step is to let the meat marinate. Ye Jiaojiao found a ceramic pot, put the processed meat in it, added sweet bean sauce, soy sauce, sugar, Shaoxing wine, chopped green onion and shredded ginger, mixed it and let it stand.
The meat needs to be left to sit for about an hour and a half to absorb the flavor. During this time, Ye Jiaojiao prepared a marinade and let it seep into the meat, then added rice noodles and stirred well so that the surface of each piece of meat and the cut in the middle were covered with rice noodles.
Ye Jiaojiao didn't let Grant look for lotus leaves, but took out a few lotus leaves soaked in spiritual energy from her mustard seed space.
Blanch the meat in boiling water and cut a lotus leaf into four pieces. After half an hour, take out the meat and wrap it in lotus leaves to form small cubes. Steam it in a steamer over low heat for one hour.
During the process of making steamed dishes, the flavor is masked by the steamer, and there is no visual feast like when stir-frying. It looks a little bit bland. When Ye Jiaojiao was cooking here, the live broadcast room was very quiet. Everyone waited tacitly, and there were almost no people causing trouble.
Si Ming took the time to look at it a few times and felt satisfied.
Fans who don’t make trouble are good fans.
The methods of making lotus leaf steamed pork and lotus leaf steamed pork ribs are somewhat similar. They are two meat dishes. Ye Jiaojiao then made the steamed pork ribs.
The pork chops used in lotus leaf steamed pork are also seasoned and wrapped in lotus leaves in small pieces. The difference from steamed pork with rice flour is that it needs to be steamed quickly over high heat.
There were two large steamers on the stove, one on the left and one on the right. The kitchen was soon filled with white mist.
