"Okay, we have almost prepared all the materials now, and the time is exactly nine o'clock."
"So that you can have a hot meal as soon as possible."
"Now, everyone! Help me prepare the ingredients!"
After calming down for a while, Ren Yan walked to the center of the class and spoke.
"Oh~!" The students agreed loudly and unloaded all the food onto the ground.
"Teacher Ren, what should we do?" Some students picked up the lobsters, while others picked up the mussels.
Ren Yan thought for a moment and said, "Girls, you are responsible for chopping all the vegetables inside."
"Chop all the garlic, ginger, onion, celery, or radish into dices. Remove the skin of the tomatoes and dice them."
"The kitchen knife is among the cooking utensils. Use a small one and be careful not to hurt your hands."
"Boys, you guys take care of the seafood. Open the shrimps, steam the mussels and oysters with thyme, and drain the lobsters and cut them into bite-sized pieces."
"Also, clean the squid for me."
"Do you understand?!"
Ren Yan quickly assigned tasks to the students. The students picked up the materials they needed to process, showing genuine interest and saying in unison:
"Understood!"
Soon, Class 9 was plunged into a bustling atmosphere.
Ren Yan also began to deal with some more difficult tasks. He laid out all kinds of seasonings one by one, and after simple seasoning, placed them where they were easily accessible.
After that, the rice processing begins.
The rice used in Spanish seafood risotto is usually Italian rice.
The rice has a strong aroma, which complements the umami flavor of the seafood very well. What’s more important is that it is very easy to cook.
Usually, the raw rice is put directly into the pot, and then slowly soaked in the soup of the risotto and steamed. It is simple and direct.
But this time, Ren Yan did not choose Italian rice, but chose domestic rice with a relatively better and richer taste.
Although it is not as easy to cook as Italian rice, it is definitely better in terms of rice aroma.
And the most important thing is that it’s cheap!
There aren't so many complicated proliferation costs.
Fifty yuan of rice is enough to feed sixty or so people.
If you choose Yimi, the price will probably double or triple.
As for the disadvantage of not being able to cook raw rice directly, it is naturally not a problem for Ren Yan.
Not to mention that he had rich experience in cooking in his previous life and was fully capable of handling this small problem. Now, with the blessing of basic cooking skills level 2, it would be even easier for him to handle it.
Well, the main thing is that this step is really simple. You just need to soak the rice in cold water for about half an hour.
However, in order to speed up the process, Ren Yan chose warm water this time. Although it is not as effective as cold water, at least the soaking time can be shortened by half.
Therefore, Ren Yan used up most of the warm water that the students in Class 9 had fetched with great difficulty without saying a word.
But just as he finished cooking the rice and was about to melt the butter, Xia Yue came over with a tomato in her hand:
"Um, Mr. Ren, how do I peel this tomato?"
Ren Yan looked at the other person expressionlessly. After seeing that the other person was sincerely asking for help, he sighed inwardly and took the tomatoes from Xia Yue: "It's very simple. Remember, sufficient temperature will allow the skin of the tomato to peel off by itself, so you can choose hot water or open flame."
"But for safety reasons, I still recommend using hot water directly, and to facilitate handling later, we also need to make a cross-shaped cut on the bottom of the tomato in advance."
"For example..."
As he said that, Ren Yan cut the tomato twice at the base with a kitchen knife, then took a bowl and threw it into the hot water.
"As long as the water is warm enough, you can easily peel off the skin in two or three minutes. Do you understand?"
Xia Yue nodded, looking at the tomatoes in the bowl with burning eyes.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, the skin of the tomato began to soften and fall off, and Xia Yue processed a tomato very easily.
He said happily: "Wow, Teacher Ren, this is really amazing!"
"What a joke, you just don't have any life experience..." Ren Yan rolled his eyes at Xia Yue, signaling her to deal with her own affairs quickly.
I started to compete with butter again.
However, this time, before he could open his mouth, Li Cheng came over with a mean look on his face, holding a squid in his hand.
Behind him was Wang Bo, holding a lobster in his hand, muttering, "This lobster is too small, not even as big as my palm."
Ren Yan was speechless for a moment: "Damn it! With your teacher's salary, do you think I can afford to buy a large lobster? It's good enough to have it for you to eat!"
After that, he looked at the two of them again and said, "Tell me, don't you know how to deal with these two things?"
The two of them nodded embarrassedly.
Ren Yan was helpless: "I wonder how you all grew up like this? If I throw you into the wild, won't you starve to death in a minute?"
But having said that, he still put down his work, took the squid from Li Cheng, and shouted to all the students:
“Those who don’t know how to handle the ingredients, come and watch.”
As soon as he finished speaking, all the students in Class 9 gathered around. Many of them even stood on high places with stools, and considerately broke off the live broadcast camera again.
