"This step is my personal opinion."
Yu Hui patiently explained, "Scallions can remove the fishy smell. Stuffing them into the large intestine will make the large intestine fragrant from the inside out, enhancing the aroma and removing the fishy smell."
"I see!"
Chef He suddenly realized what he meant and thought to himself, "I've learned something!"
After stuffing the scallions into the large intestine, Yu Hui threw them into the pressure cooker, then added spices such as angelica root, cardamom, and fennel seeds, as well as scallions, cilantro, and cooking wine.
Finally, add a little salt to allow the large intestine to absorb the base flavor.
Cook over medium-low heat for eight minutes, then simmer for another two or three minutes before removing the large intestine.
Take out the scallions, cut the large intestine into pieces about three centimeters long, and then chop some scallions, ginger, and garlic.
"That knife skill is amazing!" Chef He exclaimed.
As a highly skilled chef, he has a keen eye and can tell at a glance.
Yu Hui not only cut the large intestine very evenly, but also made sure that each piece of large intestine was the same size. Even the scallions, ginger, and garlic were cut very evenly.
It takes four or five years of dedicated practice to develop this level of knife skills!
After cutting the large intestine, Yu Hui started caramelizing the sugar.
Nine-Turned Intestines is a complex dish.
The key to blending multiple flavors together is to add caramel coloring and seasoning at the end.
Vinegar evaporates very easily; the first batch of vinegar added usually evaporates completely.
Adding vinegar a second time is necessary to maintain the sour taste of the dish.
Soon, Yu Hui finished preparing the dish, and with its exquisite plating, it looked much more upscale.
Before long, the second dish of Mapo Tofu was ready.
These two dishes took almost two hours to prepare.
Right now.
The sun has already set.
After finishing his Mapo Tofu, Yu Hui packed up his things and prepared to close up shop.
On the other side.
Ye Fan and Chef He found a shady spot to sit down.
They opened the Nine-Turned Intestines and Mapo Tofu.
Ye Fan couldn't wait to pick up a piece of large intestine and stuff it into his mouth.
It has a crunchy texture when you take a bite.
Next is...
Sweet, sour, salty, and spicy – a progressive blend of four flavors, ending with a touch of bitterness.
Soft, tender, and delicious!
It not only offers a variety of flavors, but also retains the original freshness of the pork intestines, making it incredibly delicious!
Even though Ye Fan has tasted all kinds of delicacies, he was still amazed by the taste of this Nine-Turned Intestine!
Although he couldn't invite Yu Hui this time, he was still satisfied to eat such delicious braised pork intestines!
————————
Yu Hui, this incompetent boss, forgot to even prepare employee meals because he was busy making braised pork intestines.
We usually eat around 5 or 6 o'clock.
It was already 7:30, and Yu Hui, Pan Tiezhu, and Ye Yiqiu were still hungry.
After packing up their stall, Pan Tiezhu and Ye Yiqiu both thought they were out of food and decided to go to the supermarket to buy instant noodles.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, Yu Hui said:
"Come to my house later, and I'll cook noodles for everyone."
Fifteen minutes later.
Yu Hui took Pan Tiezhu and Ye Yiqiu back home.
As soon as Pan Tiezhu entered the house, he lay down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked very comfortable.
He truly considered this place his home.
Ye Yiqiu formed a stark contrast to him.
She consciously sat in the far corner of the sofa, her legs together, staring blankly at the TV, looking somewhat restless.
Although she comes here every day, she rarely sits here.
She was still a little unaccustomed to suddenly going from being an employee to a customer.
Yu Hui cut some fruit and put it on the coffee table.
"You two, take whatever you want to eat, just treat this place like your own home!"
Of course, this was said to Ye Yiqiu.
Soon, Yu Hui returned to the kitchen and began preparing dinner.
Glug glug~~~
He was so engrossed in making the Nine-Turned Intestines dish that he temporarily forgot about his hunger.
I cooked noodles for two employees this time, which gave me a chance to make chili sauce.
Try it and see how it tastes.
In order to get the braised pork intestines, Ye Fan paid for all the other side dishes.
But he didn't take it; he left it with Yu Hui.
Fortunately, the leftover side dishes included the ingredients for the chili sauce.
Let's round it off and say it was Mr. Ye's treat!
The side dishes had all been cleaned, so Yu Hui immediately started cooking.
First, put 200g of garlic and 1000g of chili into a blender and chop them. Then prepare scallions, ginger, garlic leaves, star anise, bay leaves, spices, white sesame seeds, and crushed peanuts.
Heat oil in a wok, add the seasonings and fry until fragrant, then filter the mixture through a strainer.
Immediately afterwards.
Add minced ginger and garlic, and sauté the ginger and garlic in hot oil until the moisture is released. Finally, add chili peppers and simmer over medium heat.
During this time, Yu Hui kept stirring with a spatula to prevent the chili peppers from burning and sticking to the pan.
Finally, add salt, sugar, oyster sauce, chicken bouillon, and other seasonings.
Adding more salt and high-proof liquor at this step will help with preservation.
After making the chili sauce, Yu Hui boiled water in a pot and added the noodles.
While the noodles are cooking, add salt, chicken bouillon, light soy sauce, and aged vinegar in that order, then pour in the broth.
Finally, scoop out the noodles, and a bowl of clear soup noodles is ready.
"Zhu Zi, Qiu Qiu, the noodles are ready!" Yu Hui shouted.
"They're here!"
"It's done so quickly?"
Soon, Ye Yiqiu and Pan Tiezhu, who were starving, went to the kitchen.
Upon seeing this plain and bland noodle dish, Pan Tiezhu immediately lost his spirits.
He muttered, "This noodle has no oil at all; it doesn't look appetizing."
Ye Yiqiu's ideas were somewhat different from his.
