Home Cook

"The first is the selection of materials. Mapo tofu is best to choose which kind of tofu is white and tender. The texture must be good."

Bai Ye took out a piece of tofu from the water basin in the corner of the kitchen. He held the tofu in his hand. nod.

This tofu was played in the backyard with his senior sister in his spare time. He had drawn a tofu making guide in the lottery before, but the card was unexpectedly not a recipe, but a kind of tofu. Cooking skills, but the level is not high, only four stars, so with the mentality of learning it anyway, Bai Ye used it casually.

The face of the card is a scene of an ordinary old man working silently in a tofu workshop, but after Bai Ye used the card, he watched the life of the old man as if he were watching flowers on a horse. In the beginning, he worked as an apprentice in a tofu workshop when he was a child, and when he became an adult, he married the daughter of the workshop and inherited the workshop.

The old man is just an ordinary tofu craftsman, not a great master like a master. The workshop is just a small rural workshop that is not well-known, and naturally there will be no earth-shattering unique skills. Come down, and this may be the reason why this cooking skill card, which clearly gathered the experience of the old man's life, was only rated as four stars.

It's just that even if I only learned the most common, or even a bad street, that kind of tofu making craftsmanship that I can easily search on the Internet, but Bai Ye still feels that I have benefited a lot, because that is the share In the memory of walking around the flowers, Bai Ye saw the enthusiasm of the old man for his craft. Bai Ye, who was also a craftsman in his previous life, liked this enthusiasm and was moved by it, and perhaps it was because of the enthusiasm of the old man. The God of Cookery was moved, and deliberately made this old man's craft into a cooking skill and preserved it.

The four-star rating may not be high, but what kind of craftsmanship can enter the eyes of the gods is simple.

In short, after learning the craft of making tofu, Bai Ye picked up the craft of woodworking with great interest, and built a set of ancient but practical wooden tools in the backyard according to the arrangement of the small workshop in the memory of the old man. , and then pulled senior sister and Robert, and the family grinded tofu for a whole day.

Well, maybe it's because Bai Ye used the high-grade soybeans sent by Tuo Xiaomo, the kind of special soybeans that grow on trees, and a single bean is the size of an apple. The tofu finally made is unexpectedly delicious. It's not Bai Ye. He boasted that his tofu was indeed much better than the machine-made tofu bought on the street.

Well, the only problem is that the tofu is finished, and it just so happens that Kang Na comes home from school. Bai Ye worked hard to get less than one-tenth of the results from the mouth of this extremely evil dragon.

uh, looks like it's too far...

Feeling the delicate, comfortable, soft and elastic feel of the piece of tofu in his hand, Bai Ye smiled and ended the memory.

He held the tofu in one hand and the kitchen knife in the other. With a slight movement, the whole piece of tofu seemed to be cut by square grid lines, turning into small cubes, the size of which was just right for a human mouth. size.

Take a pot, boil hot water, don't need to open it too much, put the cut tofu into the pot carefully in the night.

Add a little salt to the pot, the hot water can make the tofu spit out a certain amount of water, and the added salt can make the tofu a little salty, and the salt can also remove the beany smell of the tofu very well.

At this time, a little soy sauce was added to enhance the color. The color of the soy sauce was mixed into the water, and then the white tofu was stained. The tofu, which was originally white and tender like a girl's skin, was dyed into the shape of soy sauce. Dyed the color of soy sauce. It's like changing from a white and tender girl to a bronze-colored sports girl, which is even more attractive.

After the dyeing is completed, there is no need to cook any more. If you can save the tofu by cooking it, it will not be tender. The dyed tofu is almost ready to be picked up for later use. The tofu picked up from the water has a good smell of beans. 's mouthwatering.

Taking out a piece of beef, Bai Ye took out an ordinary kitchen knife from the knife box on the side, and learned the second knife style of Tongzi in a normal manner. Then the knife light flashed, and between the electric light and flint, the originally good beef was chopped into minced meat. Beef Shaozi.

Take another pot, pour oil in the pot, when the oil pan is heated and there is a slight smoke coming out, pour in the sliced ​​beef shaozi, and the sound of babbling is immediately remembered in the oil pan, and the smell of meat is accompanied by The nose comes.

Beef Shaozi must be fried and crispy. After frying, put it aside for later use.

The next thing to do is the highlight of Mapo Tofu, the sauce needed to prepare Mapo Tofu.

"Tsk tsk, do you really want to use this thing? It will kill people."

Bai Ye carefully pulled out a small bottle from a cabinet in the kitchen. There were a few peppers in the bottle, but I don't know if it was an illusion. If you look inside the bottle from the outside, you will find that the air in the bottle is a little distorted. , just like the distorted air baked by the sun when it is hot and deadly weather in midsummer.

Well, this bottle of chili is also a high-end ingredient. It was made by my king before Bai Ye wanted to see what the hottest chili in the world would look like.

Purgatory pepper, this is the name of the pepper in this bottle, a very appropriate name, because the eater will have the feeling of being thrown into the volcanic **** of the eighteenth hell, and the sea of ​​fire is definitely no longer just an adjective.

Legend has it that this kind of pepper generally only grows in the center of the volcano and is nourished by lava, but it cannot be directly applied after maturity. In eighty-one days, the fire of the sky stirred the fire of the earth, and finally the terrifying spicy taste that even the gods could not accept could be bred.

Anyway, Bai Ye, who originally wanted to die and try it, was cowardly after receiving the real thing, and sealed the bottle of chili. Originally, he planned not to use it in this life, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to use it now.

Well, that's right, the main ingredient of this delightful Mapo Tofu is this purgatory pepper.

"That priest is really a god. Is this kind of thing really eaten by humans?"

Bai Ye reached out to the bottle with some fear, but after hesitating for a long time, he still didn't dare to open the lid. Fortunately, at this time, he was quickly suppressed by the fear, and he finally opened the lid calmly.

Then...

Then nothing happened.

Originally, Bai Ye thought that the jar would have a terrifying and eye-scorching spicy smell coming out of the jar, but I didn't expect the pepper to have no taste at all. Well, even if Bai Ye came in and smelled it, I didn't smell the spicy taste at all.

"Is it expired?"

Bai Ye was a little suspicious. He was just thinking about whether to come and try it, but at the thought of it, his whole body was trembling, as if the instinct to survive was reminding him.

Taking a deep look at the pepper, Bai Ye finally put away the thought of dying.

Chop the two peppers into the pot, then add special bean paste, tempeh and other seasonings, and slowly boil the sauce in the white night.

Oh, by the way, it is worth mentioning that Mapo tofu must not be put in ginger, because the taste of **** is relatively strong, which will cover up and destroy the deliciousness of other ingredients. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

At this point, you can add some more garlic paste to the pot, and after the garlic paste, you can add the previously fried beef shaozi.

As soon as the meat and the sauce meet, a strong aroma will hit the nostrils. After a little stir fry, you can add some stock to the pot. The stock doesn't need to be much, just moderate.

The sauce was boiled. Looking at the bright red sauce, Bai Ye had some doubts on his face, because he still didn't smell any spicy taste, but the distorted air of the sauce wound like a volcanic crater showed this thing. unusual.

With trepidation, Bai Ye added tofu to the pot.

Well, Bai Ye felt a strange feeling of unbearableness when adding tofu. Is it really good to pour these soy sauce-colored tofu into this terrifying sauce? It was like sending weak girls to hell.

Well, the system forces the calm to start again, Bai Ye calmly poured the tofu into the pot, and then waved the spatula to start frying. At this time, be careful, the spatula can only be pushed slowly in one direction, do not go back and forth. Stir frying, and even the spatula can only be pushed with the back of the spatula, and even the shovel surface cannot be used, because it will easily destroy the integrity of the tofu. The complete, square tofu is the best Mapo tofu.

finally......

"Well, it's done."

Bai Ye nodded with satisfaction. He looked at the tofu that exuded a red light and had special effects like the birth of a great devil. He seemed to have lingering fears.

"This light is wrong, hey! Why is Mao not golden light but red light?"

He muttered silently in his heart.

He opened the appraisal eye and saw the completion rate as high as 95. Bai Ye was relieved, and he walked forward with this bowl of Mapo tofu.

"Well, this bowl of delightful Mapo Tofu will definitely move them to the core."

Bai Ye thought so in his heart.
