Chapter 6 (1/2)
The golden ratio roaster is master Xie's specialty. Pork, shrimp, vegetables and eggs are matched according to the golden ratio, so that several flavors have the best flavor.
Master Xie of steel stick said, ”The protagonist of Shaomai is pork after all, but if there is no supporting role, it can not set off the protagonist. The proportion of the two determines the taste of Shaomai. My proportion of Shaomai is eight for meat, five for shrimp, five for vegetables and five for eggs. It is a balanced proportion of eight to five with anyone, that is, the golden proportion of taste. Relying on this best proportion, I can make the best taste.” Moreover, the material of this roasted wheat is much simpler than that of three egg roasted wheat.
”Kay, what's this?”
When Wang Kai was trying to sell three eggs, Jimmy looked at the preserved egg in Wang Kai's hand with a frightened face and said.
”This is a millennium egg. It has been laid for a thousand years. How about it? Do you want to taste it?”
Wang Kai said to Jimmy with a bad smile, making Jimmy's eyes wider.
”No, no, Kai, you can't poison customers with this kind of thing. You'll put us in jail.”
Jimmy believed Wang Kai's words and thought it was really a duck egg that had been put for thousands of years, at least for many years, because it looked black and seemed to be terrible, which would make customers poisoned.
”Well, I'm kidding you. This is a snack in China. It's a duck egg for special treatment. It's not as long as a thousand years. It's only about a month. Don't worry, no one will be poisoned.”
Wang Kai put away the joke and explained it to Jimmy. Wang Kai has seen a lot of videos, all of which are videos of foreigners eating preserved eggs. Without exception, they all feel terrible. Seeing these videos, Wang Kai really wants to say that NTM gives people a little vinegar. Chinese people don't eat preserved eggs so directly. Preserved eggs need ginger vinegar juice, or even sesame oil cold mix. You can eat them It's strange that people just eat it directly and don't feel bad.
Preserved eggs also have a certain position in Chinese diet. Preserved eggs are not only delicious food, but also have medicinal value. In Wang Shixiong's Diet Manual of living with rest, it says: ”preserved eggs have pungent, astringent, sweet and salty taste. They can diarrhea, sober up, remove large intestine fire, treat diarrhea, disperse and collect.” Traditional Chinese medicine believes that preserved eggs are cool and can cure eye pain, toothache, hypertension, tinnitus, dizziness and other diseases, so foreigners are really broken.
”Really no one will be poisoned?”
Jimmy still doesn't believe it. After all, the preserved egg looks so weird.
”Don't worry, when I'm done, you'll forget your worries and fall in love with this delicious food.”
Wang Kai picked up the prepared Shaomai skin, smeared it with a layer of pig meat stuffing, then put the fish eggs in the middle, wrapped them in his hands, and turned them into a small cloth bag. Then he sprinkled the broken preserved eggs on it. In a moment, he made five or six of them, then put them on the cage drawer and began steaming. At the same time, he prepared another kind of Shaomai, golden ratio Shaomai.
After making a cage of golden ratio roasted wheat, put it on the cage drawer. These two cages of roasted wheat are trial food to give Jimmy some confidence. Otherwise, Jimmy doesn't believe it. How can others believe it.
After eight or nine minutes, the cooking was already cooked. Wang Kai showed off the two cages, turned off the fire and came to the living room. Jimmy had been waiting there.
”This is the Millennium egg just now?”
Jimmy saw those glittering and translucent preserved egg protein crumbs like jelly on the three egg roaster. He was surprised and asked how it was different from what he had just seen.
