Chapter 121
The luncheon meat would take a while to prepare, so Lin Mujin decided to make shrimp cakes first.
Previously, she had thought of making shrimp dumplings, peeling the shrimps and leaving the tails on, then coating six shrimps in batter and frying them to make a shrimp fillet.
The idea is good, but it's not very convenient.
Not only does frying consume a lot of oil, but you also need a frying pan.
Huimei’s place is really not that big.
She's also thinking of adding a small frying pan in the future.
So she ruled out this option.
Just use the shrimp fillets from Kentucky Fried Chicken, add seasonal vegetables, corn kernels and starch.
As soon as Lin Mujin explained the specific method, she didn't even need to give any instructions on the spot, and her cousin Lin made it quickly.
Lin Mujin took a bite and exclaimed, "It's delicious!"
Because of the addition of minced fat, sesame oil and cooking oil, this shrimp cake is not so light, but very fragrant.
This is also a little trick.
Cousin Lin also ate half of it while it was still hot. "It's quite fragrant, and it goes really well with bread."
Lin Mujin continued, "Sister, make another one. I'll weigh it after it cools down so I can calculate the cost later."
Cousin Lin hurried to do it.
"Seventy-eight grams, let's calculate it as eighty grams." Lin Mujin subconsciously calculated that a pound of fresh shrimp is about 350 grams of shrimp meat...
"Sister, do we have to measure the shrimp cakes every time? That's too troublesome." Cousin Lin was a little reluctant.
Lin Mujin's thoughts were interrupted, and she was no longer in a hurry to settle the score. "There is a way. Sister, go find a big paper cup and bring a pair of scissors."
She used scissors to cut off the rim of the paper cup, and the thickness left on the edge of the cup was the thickness of the shrimp cake.
Without her having to explain further, Cousin Lin knew how to use it. She smiled and said, "I'll cut two more later. That way it will be much more convenient. My sister still has a way."
Lin Mujin smiled and looked at the time. The luncheon meat needed to be frozen for a while longer. "Sister, let's start making beef patties."
Cousin Lin nodded. "Okay, what do you say?"
Lin Mujin said, "Cut the beef into pieces, about 160 grams."
Cousin Lin asked, "Does beef require such precision?"
Lin Mujin replied, "This is enough for two beef patties. I want to see the size."
Cousin Lin raised the rim of the paper cup in her hand and asked, "Don't you want this?"
Lin Mujin replied, "Considering the cost, I need to know how big a 100-gram beef patty is."
Cousin Lin discovered another point. "Two beef patties, each 100 grams. You want 160 grams of meat?"
Lin Mujin replied, "Add an egg, 15 grams of starch, and onions."
So the portion will only be more, not less.
Cousin Lin nodded, "Then I'll go measure the meat first."
“Boom boom boom… boom boom boom…”
Lin Mujin felt tired just watching her cousin Lin chopping meat. It seemed that she really needed to buy a meat grinder.
"It doesn't need to be too fine, a little grainy is better."
Cousin Lin nodded and continued to bang bang bang...
It’s finally chopped and you can add the ingredients.
A little onion, stir-fry until it changes color, and add soy sauce, oyster sauce, black pepper, eggs, starch and MSG.
After stirring, Cousin Lin divided it into two parts, still using the rim of a paper cup, and filled it with half of the beef filling.
"Sister, it can be used, look!"
Lin Mujin leaned over to take a look, and it was true. She was thinking about one thing: beef is denser than shrimp, so for the same volume, the beef patties would be heavier.
emmmmm…her books were not read in vain!
Soon the two beef patties were formed and put directly into the iron pan to fry, and soon both sides were golden brown.
"Sister, let's eat one each and let the other cool down and weigh it." Lin Mujin took half of it. Wow, it's so juicy, it must taste great. She took a bite without caring about the heat, exhaling as she said, "It's delicious! Sister's cooking skills are really good, it worked the first time."
Cousin Lin nodded, "This beef patty goes really well with bread."
Lin Mujin said, "Add lettuce, tomato slices, and various sauces, and the hamburger is quite nutritious."
But considering how much oil salad dressing contains, she decided to eat less.
The sisters weighed another beef patty, 105 grams.
Cousin Lin asked, "It's much heavier than the shrimp patties. Sister, do you want to reduce the amount?"
Lin Mujin shook her head. "Forget it. If you reduce it any further, it will be too small."
In this way, the trial production of two flavors of hamburgers was completed.
"Sister, it's almost time, let's make the luncheon meat."
Then she can go and write some papers, have lunch and go out in the afternoon.
"Ajie chopped the lean meat into small pieces, still making sure it had a granular texture, and added a little salt, sugar, MSG, and black and white pepper.
"Sister, add 50 grams of ice water to the meat while you chop it."
It's really troublesome not having a meat grinder.
When Lin Mujin went to buy a meat grinder, she was really dumbfounded. It turned out that the meat grinder at that time was not the same product as she expected.
This kind of life of adding water while chopping will continue for a long time.
"Sister, add the fat and chop it together. Then add the meat strips and chop them about ten to twenty times before stopping."
"Sister, the meat is very hard. Is this what's happening?" asked cousin Lin.
Lin Mujin used chopsticks to pick at the meat, struggling a bit. "That's right. Sister found a lunch box, greased it with some oil, and then placed the meat layer by layer, pressing it firmly with a spoon to ensure there was no air in the air. You can add some cold water between each layer of meat, fill the lunch box, smooth the surface, cover it, and steam it in a steamer for forty minutes."
Cousin Lin said, "Okay, I'll take care of the rest. Go back to your room and write your manuscript. You haven't been writing well lately."
Lin Mujin naturally agreed, "Sister, I'll go back to the house then."
Looking at the time, Mrs. Luo should be back soon.
But she didn't stop eating, she kept tasting the food, so she said, "Sister, ask Mrs. Luo to make less, I'm not that hungry."
Cousin Lin touched her belly and said, "Me too."
The two sisters smiled at each other.
Lin Mujin returned to her room, lay on the sofa for a few minutes, and then went back to her bedroom, locked the door, and wrote.
She was considering whether to write the final female lead.
One of them is already crazy, so one more won’t make a difference. So we made the decision happily.
In fact, it’s not that she is cruel. They are stuck in the “quagmire” and the result is inevitable.
It is impossible to give them a good result.
When writing novels, one must also abide by the Basic Law.
Lin Mujin supported her chin, thinking about how to create a new point for the final heroine.
Yes, in order to curry favor with a powerful new noble, the sponsor took good care of her for several months before offering her to him.
The upstart was so satisfied that he wanted to keep it forever.
So she was injected with mercury and skinned...
Lin Mujin couldn't help but shudder, "Isn't this too perverted? I'm mocking the darkness of society. Besides, there are many more perverted things in life than this."
She seemed to remember that an ogre had written an article based on his personal experience and had it published, which sold quite well.
She has just reached where she is now!
