Chapter 131 Chicken Yuanbao, beautiful, very beautiful!
If you want to make Daokou roast chicken delicious and authentic, the craftsmanship is not simple.
Su Chen did not kill the chicken that was sent to him immediately.
Instead, he asked Butler Ding to boil a large pot of hot water and let them simmer slowly.
Mainly, the chickens are slaughtered in a state of stress.
The glycogen in the muscles will break down quickly, producing acidic substances such as lactic acid, which will lower the pH value of the chicken. The meat may become firmer and taste sour.
After you have completely relaxed and restored your normal physiological functions, the meat will be more tender.
It is also helpful to fully bleed the chicken when killing it, and it will not affect the color of the chicken.
Moreover, according to the system, these live chickens have been fasting for 12 hours.
The food in their crop and intestines has long been emptied, and after consuming their own stored glycogen, the taste will be better.
The chicken cooked outside is generally not so particular.
I can’t even imagine how delicious this roast chicken will taste when it’s cooked.
Start killing chickens.
Su Chen adopted a three-pronged approach.
That is, the blood vessels under the neck, esophagus and trachea are cut together.
Not only is the incision small, but the chicken also passes away without pain, which is perfect.
Butler Ding and the two aunts looked at Su Chen coldly like a killer and killed him in a second.
He quickly and expertly bled the chicken.
Next comes hair removal.
Su Chen uses pure manual hair removal.
Although hair removal is generally done with an epilator nowadays.
Throw the slaughtered chicken in and in two minutes not a hair will be left. It is much faster than manual cooking.
But after the chicken was hit by the depilatory machine, the meat was broken and even the tendons were broken.
No power, no soul.
Prepare hot water at about 60 degrees, blanch the killed chicken for two or three minutes and then you can start cooking.
The plucking action should be quick, and the fine hair should be washed after the large hair is removed.
Su Chen explained the precautions to Butler Ding and the other two.
A chicken was quickly processed.
The chicken carcass is flawless white, and every inch of its skin exudes a jade-like luster.
A graceful neck, a round chest, slender legs...
People who love Kun can't help but want to touch it gently, but they are afraid of desecrating this holy and pure beauty.
After watching this whole process, Butler Ding and the other two were stunned.
This is too skillful!
Boss, have you ever worked in a slaughterhouse?
"Dad~"
At this time, Nuonuo's little feet came running towards this side with a clattering sound.
After she got up, she washed herself obediently and changed into a pretty little dress.
The white lace skirt flutters gently in the breeze, like a dream.
"Wow, so many chickens! Yay! Let's eat chicken today!"
Originally, Su Chen was worried that the scene of killing the chicken was too bloody and would scare his little girl.
But Nuonuo was not afraid at all.
She ran to Su Chen happily, opened her arms and hugged him without saying a word.
The aroma of milk wafted into his nose, and Su Chen was so scared that he quickly threw away the knife in his hand.
"Baby, be good. Daddy is dirty and can't hold you anymore."
"It's okay, you can kiss me~"
After saying that, Nuonuo gave Su Chen's handsome face a soft "bo".
It's a milky kiss.
Butler Ding and the other two also started to take action.
The little guy watched for a while and even thought the butler and the others' plucking movements were quite funny.
Those chubby little hands and feet were eager to try.
"Dad, I want to help too. I want to work together!"
Those pitiful little eyes looked at Su Chen pleadingly.
It's like saying "please, please"
Su Chen naturally would not agree.
Whether it makes things worse or not is another matter, but it would be bad if it hurts the little hands.
"Be good, you are a little princess, you are not suitable for this. You should go inside and play. Come on, daddy will take you to have breakfast first."
…
More than an hour later.
With the joint efforts of several people, they finally plucked all fifty chickens.
It's time to open the body.
Compared to general disembowelment.
The key to Daokou roast chicken is to have an intact skin.
You have to first cut a small hole at the base of the chicken's neck to take out the crop and the three tubes.
Turn the chicken upside down.
Starting from under the keel behind the legs, use scissors to cut open the abdominal wall around the chicken's butt, making a circular incision.
Then put your fingers into the abdominal cavity and clean out all the internal organs. After that, wash it several times.
Su Chen once again served as a demonstrator.
How should I put it? This action of reaching down there looks a bit weird at first glance.
But before he could think about it, Butler Ding and the other two started to take action.
Removing the internal organs was a delicate job, and it took the four of them two hours to complete it.
Finally, you have to create a shape.
The plate-shaped chicken is a major feature of Daokou Roast Chicken.
Chop off the small part connected to the claws.
Then use a knife to cut the chicken twice to cut off the part between the ribs and vertebrae.
Don't use too much force and be careful not to cut the chicken skin.
Once the chicken skin is damaged, the juice of the chicken will flow out during the marinating process, which will not only greatly reduce the appearance, but also cause uneven color and worse taste.
After cutting, place a bamboo stick inside the chicken's belly to shape it.
Then cut a small hole in the chicken tail, insert both thighs into it, and wrap it into the abdominal cavity.
This will make the overall shape of the chicken more compact and prevent it from falling apart during the marinating process.
The chicken wings also need to be cut, and the two wings are crossed over the chicken neck and stuffed into the chicken's mouth.
Let the chicken head stand up to make the shape more beautiful.
This way the chicken body becomes a semicircle with pointed ends.
Hang it on a rope in the yard of the villa to dry out the moisture.
They really look like chicken ingots, so beautiful!
…
at the same time.
In the new week, people in the two groups were discussing where the boss would set up the stall early in the morning.
When people are at work or going out, they don't forget to look around to see if there is any place with a unique fragrance.
For Lele’s grandma.
These past few days have been really tough.
My son and daughter-in-law come home from get off work every day.
Looking at the dishes on the table, I didn’t even have the desire to eat.
The two of them slumped on the sofa and sighed.
Staring at the photo of stinky tofu on the phone.
Not to mention young people, even an elderly person like her felt much more energetic after eating stinky tofu. Even her dreams were filled with the aroma of stinky tofu.
However, stinky tofu will no longer appear.
The old lady felt that her colorful life in old age suddenly became dim.
I don't even have the passion to take care of my grandchildren anymore.
My grandson is young and doesn’t understand much. Now that it’s summer vacation, he’s even more noisy at home.
He would have her take him to the public restroom and watch it eight hundred times a day.
It's just that I keep thinking about it but there is no response.
The boss is a man of his word. If he says he won't come, he really won't come to set up the stall.
The ice jelly guy has been in a very bad mood these past two days.
Without the stinky tofu guy, his ice jelly business plummeted.
Day after day, he stared blankly at the sycamore tree.
It was like he was losing his nerves and he couldn't breathe.
When I think deeply about it, a few tears will fall randomly, which is so pitiful.
