Chapter 376 How could it not have changed?
"Sure, it's at the front desk, get it yourself." Zhao Xiaojing was stunned, her brain didn't follow, and she answered reflexively.
Nie Xiuqi immediately ran out like a gust of wind.
"Are your eyes possessed? This is the first time I see him so excited." Wan Yuyue pouted and glanced at Nie Xiuqi's back.
Zhao Xiaojing followed the conversation and was also very confused, but she thought that she couldn't respond because Wan Yuyue would immediately become distracted again. She just pretended not to hear and lowered her head to continue picking fish.
No one responded. Wan Yuyue looked around and saw that Yun Yongyuan was so absorbed in cooking that he didn't seem to notice any noise. Zhao Xiaojing wasn't about to speak either, but was just busy with her own business. Wan Yuyue couldn't help feeling depressed.
"I said if you don't care about me, then don't care about me. You don't have to pretend that I don't exist. I'm a grown-up and I'm talking to you, but none of you pay attention to me. It's so boring!" Wan Yuyue walked to Zhao Xiaojing in two or three steps and pushed Zhao Xiaojing's shoulder.
"Who has the ability to pretend you don't exist?" Zhao Xiaojing broke down and laughed. "I'm giving you some space to do what you want. Who likes to be stared at all the time? Can't I give you some space?"
"You're not giving me space, you're just using cold violence! You've already seen Brother Yun and Brother Nie, but you left me out! You pretended you didn't hear what I said, you're treating me differently!"
"Okay, okay, just cook it well. I'll let you taste it after it's done. I'm busy now." Zhao Xiaojing smiled and pointed at the fish in front of her.
"Then what you said!" Having achieved her goal, Wan Yuyue jumped back to her chopping board, humming happily while cutting vegetables.
Seeing this, Zhao Xiaojing lowered her eyelids and smiled slyly.
This is my own restaurant, how can I not monitor the quality of the dishes prepared by the restaurant chefs? Originally, I was planning to let Wan Yuyue do her best, and taste the dishes after she finished cooking them, and make corrections. Now that Wan Yuyue has taken the initiative to ask for it, and is so cocky, don't blame her for finding faults in the future.
The steamed fish meat was tender. The fish jerky and fish bones in the plate were quickly separated with chopsticks. Zhao Xiaojing threw away the fish bones and fish skin, and the drained juice remained in a small bowl to be poured into the pot with the fish meat later.
The fish soup was simmered over high heat. At this time, the fish meat had been cooked and the flesh was loose. Zhao Xiaojing opened the lid of the pot, squeezed and crushed the fish with an iron spoon, and then put the lid back on.
The auxiliary ingredients were still prepared according to the original method. Just as Zhao Xiaojing finished blanching the bamboo shoots and was about to blanch the ham shreds, Nie Xiuqi hurried back with a bag.
"Here." Nie Xiuqi walked over quickly and handed the bag in his hand to Zhao Xiaojing.
Zhao Xiaojing took it and opened it curiously, and it turned out to be a bag of clams?
"This is……?"
"Soup, you added shrimp, try adding some shellfish."
Zhao Xiaojing was startled, then turned around quickly, the arc of her mouth growing wider and wider, she took out the plate and started to pour the clams. "Yes, you are right!"
After getting the hint about mixed fish soup, Zhao Xiaojing has tried it dozens of times in the virtual space, relying solely on her tongue and the slow movement of the progress bar in the background to judge whether she has done it right. The current version is already the latest version of the progress bar, but there is still something missing. It has never passed 6%, and she is stuck in a dead end of thinking.
Now that Nie Xiuqi said this, she suddenly felt that a crack had been opened in the blind spot, and an idea suddenly appeared in her mind.
Shellfish do have a unique sweet flavor, especially when fresh, which is particularly suitable in a light soup like this.
Zhao Xiaojing filled a small bowl with clams, rinsed them twice, covered the bowl with a flat plate, and began to shake it vigorously.
Fresh clams have sand in them, and soaking them for too long will make them spit out the sand, but shaking them violently can make the clams spit out the sand quickly.
After shaking three times and rinsing with water, the clams had become quite clean. Zhao Xiaojing still put them aside in a small bowl and continued to blanch the shredded ham and mushrooms.
At present, the ham has been replaced with Zhejiang ham, which has a more suitable taste and texture for this dish than the previous Yunnan ham. Zhao Xiaojing also cuts it finer with her knife skills, so the blanching time is reduced to a few seconds.
The fish soup in the pot continued to simmer. Zhao Xiaojing opened the lid and took a look. The fish meat had been cooked into pieces. She immediately put in the clams, turned off the heat after a minute, and started filtering with a strainer.
The freshest juice of clams is only in that portion, so you must not blanch them in advance. Once blanched, the freshness will be lost.
A pot of fish, shrimp and clams was filtered until only half of the soup was left, and the color turned into a rich milky white.
Zhao Xiaojing took a small bowl and scooped out a spoonful to taste it. She immediately felt enlightened. Although there were still too many clams and the taste was a bit stronger, her intuition told her that this was the right step!
Zhao Xiaojing immediately put the soup back into the pot, poured in the auxiliary ingredients, original juice, fish meat, then salt, pepper, steamed fish soy sauce, MSG, water starch to thicken, poured in the egg yolk liquid, stirred well, boiled, and turned off the heat.
[Song Sao Fish Soup: Level 3, one of the more delicious ones among many methods, no rice vinegar, insufficient amount of shredded ginger, imbalanced proportions of ingredients in the soup, improper handling of auxiliary ingredients, and slightly insufficient heat.]
Rice vinegar! Yes, yes, yes.
Zhao Xiaojing hurriedly poured in another spoonful of vinegar and stirred it well.
"Brother Nie, try it." Zhao Xiaojing excitedly scooped out a bowl and handed it to Nie Xiuqi. Nie Xiuqi immediately took it, blew on it casually, and put it into his mouth.
"Almost done!" Nie Xiuqi raised his head and looked at Zhao Xiaojing.
Zhao Xiaojing opened the recipe collection page with great anticipation while watching Mrs. Song making fish soup.
[Song Sao Fish Soup: 5 9%? Activated]
"Do it again, but this time use fewer clams and chop more ginger!"
The progress bar moved forward again, and now it was only 1% away. Zhao Xiaojing felt like she was filled with chicken blood. She immediately served the soup and put it aside, and fished out the fish and shrimp again. However, just as she was about to use the knife to kill the fish, she felt Nie Xiuqi's burning gaze.
"How about we come together?"
"it is good."
Nie Xiuqi joined the cooking team and began to help kill the fish skillfully.
In twenty minutes, the new Song Sao Fish Soup is ready.
[Song Sao Fish Soup: Level 2, one of the more delicious ones among many methods, the auxiliary ingredients were not handled properly and the cooking time was slightly insufficient.]
It's upgraded, and this time it's one step further! Compared with the last time I came back from Yucheng, the version Nie Xiuqi made with fish bones and chicken broth is half a level higher!
"It's done." Nie Xiuqi took a sip and said blankly.
Wan Yuyue stared at the situation for a long time. Seeing that Nie Xiuqi had said this, she dropped the chopping board and pulled Yun Yongyuan over. "Let me try it, let me try it!"
Zhao Xiaojing looked at the two people who came over and made way for them. She stood aside with excitement on her face and opened the recipe page while the three of them were studying.
[Song Sao Fish Soup: 5 9%??? Activated]
Huh? How come it hasn't changed? It's a leap forward, and it took two full labors, but it hasn't changed?! How could it not have changed?
