Chapter 337 Spicy Chicken and Boiled Shrimp
"Okay." Putting down the planned training schedule for next year, Si Ming, who had completed his official duties beyond the quota, breathed a sigh of relief and took a short rest. When they opened the door, they were suddenly faced with Yun Che and Bai Feng.
"Senior Brother, Fourth Brother? What are you doing?" Ye Jiaojiao was a little surprised that Yun Che and Bai Feng were standing at the door. However, Si Ming just felt that they had bad intentions. These two troublesome brothers-in-law were probably waiting for him.
Before coming here, Bai Feng was told by Yun Che not to speak. It was Yun Che who answered Ye Jiaojiao: "Junior Sister, are you going to cook?"
"Yeah." Ye Jiaojiao nodded. Yun Che smiled and asked, "Do you want to broadcast it live?"
live streaming?
Thinking of the somewhat rushed live broadcast at Uncle Aoqi's house, Ye Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said, "I think it's okay."
First, there had been no live broadcast for such a long time, and then the live broadcast was rushed, and there was no lottery for everyone yet. Ye Jiaojiao thought that she could indeed do another live broadcast tonight.
The location is suitable and convenient for the lottery.
"I had a lot of food delivered this afternoon. Junior Sister, go and take a look." As expected, Yun Che pointed in the direction of the kitchen. It seemed that he was being considerate, but in fact, he was deliberately transferring Ye Jiaojiao away.
Behind Ye Jiaojiao, Si Ming narrowed his eyes slightly.
Yun Che wanted to coax Jiaojiao away?
Are you planning to have a 'talk' with him?
"Okay, then I'll go cook and live stream!" Yun Che finished speaking. Ye Jiaojiao made a move to head to the kitchen, but suddenly came back halfway. "Ah Ming, if the brothers bully you, just call me!"
Returning to Si Ming, Ye Jiaojiao stood on her tiptoes and tried to get close to Si Ming's ear, whispering like a child who knew nothing about the world. Si Ming was amused and felt soft in his heart: "Okay."

Ye Jiaojiao had previously live-streamed in the kitchen of the bamboo house. The kitchen was equipped with a set of the most advanced live-streaming equipment. After cleaning up the kitchen with a household robot, Ye Jiaojiao logged into the live-streaming room.
Ding ding ding——
"Good evening, welcome to the [I am a Chef] live broadcast room. The host has time today and the location is suitable. I can organize a lucky draw for everyone after the live broadcast." Ye Jiaojiao released the benefits at the beginning. The audience who were about to say hello to Ye Jiaojiao immediately deleted the barrage of greetings and replaced them with various cheers.
Live broadcast room comment area——
[Wow! What great news! Thank you for your hard work, sister!]
[MuaMuaMua~~~Miss, you are so nice~~~I love you~~~]
[Is there a lottery today? Hahaha, wait till I go worship the koi fish and wash my hands to see if I can win. I haven't won anything in such a long time!]
[Host, what are you having for dinner today? Anything spicy?]
[I was praised by my supervisor today and received a nice bonus. Now, as soon as I came in, I heard the host was going to draw a prize. I feel incredibly lucky. I think I'll win soon!]
[Host, host, how many lucky draw spots are there? Let me calculate the odds.]
After deciding on the dishes and putting the text version of the recipe on the bulletin board in the live broadcast room, Ye Jiaojiao noticed the last comment: "I want to make dinner. It's getting late, so the portion may not be large. I'll try my best to prepare it."
[Yes, yes, yes! Take your time, little sister! We're not in a hurry!]
[As long as there's food, it's fine. A few spots don't matter. I'm used to cheating anyway. If five people draw, even one might not win. It's not a big deal.]
[Spicy chicken? Are you having spicy cuckoo chicken tonight?]
On the bulletin board, Ye Jiaojiao posted tonight's menu. The first dish was spicy chicken, a classic Sichuan dish made with a whole chicken as the main ingredient, plus green onions, dried chilies, peppercorns and other ingredients.
Spicy chicken is not difficult to prepare. It tastes spicy and refreshing, salty and mellow, and slightly sweet when you taste it carefully. It is a classic dish in ancient China.
The raw materials and auxiliary materials were ready in the kitchen. Ye Jiaojiao took out a whole chicken, washed it, cut it into dices, put it in a bowl and seasoned it with salt and cooking wine.
It doesn't take long to light the fire, pour in the oil, and fry the diced chicken until it is shaped.
After the diced chicken is cooked, drain and set aside.
Heat some oil in the pan, add dried chilies and stir-fry until brown, then add Sichuan peppercorns and stir-fry until fragrant. Then pour in the diced chicken, add cooking wine, salt, MSG, pepper, sugar, vinegar, add broth and stir-fry until the chicken is soft, finally add the scallions, stir well and serve.
The whole process took less than twenty minutes, and a plate of shiny brown and spicy chicken came out of the pot. Ye Jiaojiao then put it on the tasting area of the live broadcast room.
In order to show the authentic characteristics of spicy chicken, Ye Jiaojiao put a lot of chili peppers. At first glance, there were more chili peppers in the plate than chicken. After it was put on the live broadcast room, the audience who likes spicy food was very happy, while the audience who can't accept spicy food was a little hesitant because it looked too red and too spicy.
There are more peppers than meat, and there are Sichuan peppercorns and Sichuan peppercorns in the middle. Not to mention putting it in your mouth, in the holographic mode that shares all five senses, just taking a breath of the food after it is served is very pungent, and some people even choked.
Live broadcast room comment area——
[Sister Anchor's dish. I don't dare to eat it.]
[Wow, wow, wow, I just took a bite. This is too spicy! How can it be so spicy? Oh my god! My mouth feels like it's on fire!]
[Is it this spicy? Luckily, I waited a while before trying it.]
After the spicy chicken was put on the shelves, a polarized situation occurred. The audience who liked spicy food was particularly quiet and did not show up at all. Those who were posting comments were all those who could not eat spicy food and were not so brave to eat spicy food.
Sichuan cuisine generally tastes a bit spicy. Seeing that many people said they were afraid to eat it, Ye Jiaojiao picked up a piece of spicy chicken with chopsticks, and as soon as she put it in her mouth, she was hit by a very overbearing spicy taste.
After accidentally eating a Sichuan peppercorn, her tongue went numb. She was afraid of spicing her throat, so she breathed in carefully, "This is the taste of this dish. The method I chose is a bit simple. If I use a more refined method, the taste will probably be more exciting."
The recipe package provided by the system has several methods for each dish. For this spicy chicken, Ye Jiaojiao chose a method with lower difficulty, thinking that it would be easier for the people of the empire to learn after the recipe was made public.
To ease the spiciness in her mouth, Ye Jiaojiao smacked her lips twice. After the spiciness passed, she tasted the flavor and couldn't help but picked up another piece of food with chopsticks.
Some dishes really taste better the spicier they are. Once you stop eating, you can't help but eat more, one chopstick after another, which makes many viewers shaken.
The host seems to be enjoying the food. It’s spicy, so it should be delicious, right?
How about giving it a try?
While they were hesitating, another group of greedy spectators stretched out their claws to the red spicy chicken, while another group of spectators who had already started eating had just finished eating and came back to make a fuss.
Ahhh! I'm back! A plate of spicy chicken! I've got it all! Cuckoo Chicken is my absolute favorite, it's delicious no matter how you cook it!
[Delicious! Absolutely delicious!]
This spicy chicken is really spicy, especially the little balls inside. I think they're called Sichuan peppercorns, right? I love them.
"The spicy chicken has a strong flavor, which complements the blanched shrimp that will be served next. You can dip the shrimp in the spicy chicken sauce later, which has a unique flavor." Seeing that she had eaten half a plate of spicy chicken, Ye Jiaojiao quickly stopped the car and brought up the business, and then started to deal with the second dish.
The main cooking technique for boiled shrimp is boiling. The word "boiled" means putting the original fresh shrimp directly into clear water to cook, so as to maintain its fresh, sweet and tender original flavor, and then peeling the shrimp and dipping it in sauce to eat.
