Chapter 118: The kimbap salad dressing is all oily...
Chapter 118
"Sister, just use regular rice for this trial. If you're selling it in a restaurant, you'll have to cook the rice separately. It needs to be softer than usual. Add some salt, sesame oil, and corn oil when cooking. This way, the steamed rice will have its own fragrance." Lin Mujin and her cousin Lin whispered. "Sister, the rice needs to be processed a little more. Add a small amount of white vinegar, sugar, and some white sesame seeds for flavor."
Cousin Lin followed instructions and had to get Lin Mujin's approval before adding vinegar and sugar.
"Sister, make a thin omelet." Lin Mujin also had work to do. She blanched some spinach, cut the cucumber and carrot into sixteenth-long vertical strips, and cut the ham into a quarter-long vertical strips.
"Sister, the omelet is ready." Cousin Lin shoveled it directly onto the chopping board with a spatula.
"Sister, you can start cooking now."
"Sister, don't fill it too full. Leave a little gap on both sides, about the thickness of your index finger."
At this time, the omelet is not so hot anymore, so cut it into wide strips.
Place ingredients on the rice one by one.
"Sister, let me roll." Cousin Lin was eager to try.
Lin Mujin didn't fight for it with her. "You do it. Roll it tighter."
Cousin Lin was very confident. "Just watch me. Oh, it's a little difficult to do."
Lin Mujin sighed. "Sister, use both hands. Pull it outward with your left hand, and grab it with your right hand and pull it inward. The interaction will tighten it."
Cousin Lin smiled and said, "I think I've found the trick."
Lin Mujin gave a thumbs up, "Sister is very insightful!"
Soon a firm seaweed roll appeared. The uneven and unsightly sides were trimmed and cut off, and then cut into ten equal parts.
"Sister, take them all and let them taste them, and I will make another one." Cousin Lin ordered.
Lin Mujin naturally had no objection, "I'll be back soon."
In fact, my family ate a lot at night. Not only did they have meals, but also a lot of bread. Now they want to eat seaweed rolls. I wonder if they will feel full.
"Uncle, brother, and Xiao Li, come and try it."
It turns out that curiosity can overcome a full stomach.
The three of them quickly finished the seaweed rolls.
Uncle Lin said succinctly, "It's delicious!"
Cousin Lin asked, "I've eaten it before. It seems to have sauce, red and white."
Lin Mujin replied, "Let me give you a taste of the original flavor first. Otherwise, if you put the sauce on it, it will taste like the sauce all over."
Cousin Lin nodded, thinking it made sense. "Can we open the store the day after tomorrow?"
Lin Muli asked, "Sister, are you going to set off firecrackers this time?"
Lin Mujin recalled the food truck's opening day, when it took three tries to set off the firecrackers before they were successful. "Firecrackers definitely need to be set off. As for the opening day, maybe the day after tomorrow or the day after that. Sister's idea is to start with three or four dishes and then gradually add more later."
Cousin Lin also thought it was feasible and said, "Okay."
Lin Mujin was carrying an empty plate back to the kitchen. She hadn't finished eating the seaweed roll yet.
"Sister, let me help." Lin Muli wanted to join in the fun.
Lin Mujin pushed him down and said, "Just read the book and don't make things worse."
As soon as Lin Mujin entered the kitchen, her cousin Lin stuffed a mouthful of seaweed roll into her mouth. She chewed it very slowly, savoring it slowly. "Sister, the taste is too bland. It seems that I need to apply more sauces."
Cousin Lin nodded vigorously, "I think so too. It's still different from Dafu."
Lin Mujin began to think about the flavors. "We can make shrimp, salmon, beef, or sausage."
Cousin Lin suddenly remembered something, "Didn't you say you wanted to make your own ham sausage? How do you do it?"
Lin Mujin waved her hand. "It's not ham, it's luncheon meat. It needs to be diced when put into the egg and vegetable mixture, so diced luncheon meat is totally fine."
Pointing at the gimbap, he said, "It's totally fine to put it here instead of ham."
Cousin Lin asked, "Isn't luncheon meat canned? Is it easy to make?"
Lin Mujin said, "It's quite simple, but we don't have the right meat right now. Let's buy some hindquarters pork in the morning and cook it together later."
She has tried making luncheon meat before, learning it from her colleagues. For a while, she would add a few slices to instant noodles whenever she made too much.
Cousin Lin nodded, "Okay."
Lin Mujin suggested, "Sister, let's make the sauce now."
Cousin Lin asked, "Which sauce?"
Lin Mujin thought for a moment and said, "Let's make the simplest salad dressing. Find a clean bowl without water or oil, beat an egg, add 20 grams of sugar, and 15 grams of condensed milk, then use an electric mixer to mix it slowly until smooth."
Cousin Lin was already blending the ingredients in a blender. "What then? Do you want to speed it up?"
Lin Mujin quickly said, "Sister, please stop the machine first. I'll refuel, and you can go back to high speed."
"Sister, why did you put so much oil in it!" Cousin Lin wanted to stop, thinking she might fail.
Lin Mujin quickly said, "Sister, please continue. Didn't you look at the ingredient list for the salad dressing? Oil is the first ingredient. We didn't do anything wrong."
She continued pouring oil.
Cousin Lin pursed her lips and continued to whisk at high speed.
Lin Mujin poured oil again.
"Sister, it seems to be thicker. There is a change, finally a change." Cousin Lin was extremely surprised.
"It's almost done, you can stop now." Lin Mujin poured white vinegar into a small bottle cap, about five or six grams, and then added a little of the cream she brought back. "Just stir until smooth. You can actually use fresh lemon juice instead of white vinegar, it will taste better that way."
"Sister, are we just going to eat it?" Cousin Lin wanted to try it but was worried, "Will it taste like raw oil?"
Lin Mujin was very confident, "No, the white vinegar and cream will neutralize the smell of raw oil."
She scooped a little with a spoon and ate it directly. "It seems to be richer than the salad dressing you buy. Sister, try it, it's really edible."
The only slight risk is that she used regular eggs instead of sterilized eggs.
But where can I buy sterilized eggs now?
She doesn't believe that manufacturers selling salad dressings use sterilized eggs.
So big brother, don’t look down on the second brother.
Cousin Lin ate it anyway, "How could it be? It was clearly raw, but it tasted like this in the end."
I can't figure it out no matter how hard I try.
Lin Mujin completely understood her cousin Lin, as this was also her previous doubt.
When she first saw the video of homemade salad dressing, she didn’t believe it at all. Then she started searching and found that everyone used almost the same recipe, so she had to believe it.
Cousin Lin spread the salad dressing on the seaweed roll and ate it. "It really tastes better with the dressing on it."
Then she took a bite of the salad dressing she bought, "We make it even better!"
Lin Mujin was very proud, "Because we are willing to spend money, we put condensed milk and cream in it. Look at the ingredient list of the salad dressing you bought, isn't it without these two things?"
Cousin Lin looked carefully and said, "Really? There isn't one. If we do it ourselves, wouldn't that increase the cost?"
Lin Mujin knew that Cousin Lin hadn't beaten the curve. "It's more delicious if we make it ourselves with real ingredients, but the cost is definitely not as expensive as the salad dressing sold in the supermarket, so in the end it still saves money."
They could save more money if they cut corners.
