Chapter 764 A super delicacy whose appearance and taste are completely inversely proportional—eel porridge! 【Please subscribe】

Back at the shop, Lin Xu took the eels upstairs and took the rest to the kitchen to make eel porridge, except for the one he caught for Dundun to eat.

“Is the eel porridge good to make? Xubao?”

At the door of the kitchen, Shen Jiayue asked curiously.

If eel porridge is easy to make, she will learn from it.

Lin Xu said:

“You’d better not learn this. Although it’s not difficult, the process is extremely bloody and can easily cause psychological discomfort. Just wait outside to eat with Lele and Tongtong.”

If it is other porridges, the good baby can teach you directly if he wants to learn it, but this eel porridge is not suitable. People who do not have a certain tolerance may not be able to endure the making process.

Therefore, it is better to leave this kind of matter to professional chefs.

When Shen Jiayue heard that the process was very bloody, Shen Jiayue couldn’t help but shrink her neck. In this case, it’s better not to learn this.

She asked worriedly:

“Then the porridge will be very fishy?”

“No, on the contrary, it’s very fresh and sweet. Just wait and eat it. It’s definitely beyond your imagination.”

Shen Jiayue felt relieved and came to the booth with a snack platter:

“Try the newly made sandwich biscuits in the kitchen. The filling is made from milk. It has a very rich flavor and is much more delicious than the ones bought in the supermarket.”

Upon hearing this, Geng Lele picked up one and tasted it:

“Yes, it’s really delicious.”

After saying that, she took her mobile phone and sent a message to her godfather and godmother’s small group:

” @Godfather: We are making eel porridge in the store. If there are too many people, please come quickly!”

After the message was sent out, Cui Qingyuan did not reply in time. Yan Lin, who was on a business trip in Yangcheng, bubbled up:

“Eel porridge? Is this delicious?”

“Brother Xu said it’s so fresh that you can swallow it on your tongue. He’s cooking it in the kitchen right now. Godmother, do you want to come over and try it? If so, I’ll grab a bowl for you.”

Yan Lin knew that her goddaughter was lusting after her, so she replied:

“No need, Xiao Qing just asked about the hotel where we are staying. The chef can make us an eel porridge. Although it may not be as delicious as Xiao Xu’s, it should be reasonable.”

Geng Lele asked curiously:

“Why? Just because it’s expensive?”

“Because the executive chef here is Guo Xinghai’s uncle.”

Gee, no wonder you are so confident, it turns out that the hotel is managed by the Guo family.

In the kitchen, Lin Xu poured the eels into the pool, lifted one, and stroked the eels with his other hand to clean away the dirt and other dirt on the surface.

Rinse again after cleaning.

The eel is alive, so cooking it is a bit troublesome, but for the sake of a healthy diet, the steps of washing are indispensable.

Clean them all, take a larger basin, add two bowls of water to the basin, then take the eel and place it on the chopping board, chop off the tail of the eel with a knife, and quickly throw it into the basin.

This step needs to be done quickly, because after the tail is cut off, a large amount of blood will quickly gush out from the fracture. This blood is the essence of eel porridge, so it cannot be wasted.

As soon as it was put into the basin, the blood in the eel surged out, turning the water in the basin completely red.

The eel will swim quickly in the water because of pain, which accelerates the outflow of blood.

“Damn, eels have so much blood.”

Wei Qian took a look, feeling a little uncomfortable with this kind of scene. If Zhu Yong or Zhuang Yizhou were here, they might have already taken action just now.

Zhu Yong’s hometown is Hubei, and he is best at various aquatic dishes.

Zhuang Yizhou is from southern Jiangsu. He eats eels as casually as he eats noodles. It is easy to pick up such ingredients.

Lin Xu said:

“This is actually the same as eating other meats. You have eaten pig blood, duck blood, and sheep blood. Naturally, eel blood is edible.”

Wei Qian knew this. After all, he had just eaten blood duck in the store last week, and he knew how delicious the animal’s blood was. But the eel in front of him had its tail cut off, but it was still swimming. No matter how you looked at it, this scene was a bit strange. Bloody horror.

Ma Zhiqiang came over, took a look and said:

“The eel’s body will become distorted after being slaughtered for a long time. It’s just a neurological reaction. I don’t think there’s anything to be afraid of.”

As a chef, Lao Ma didn’t think this scene was very scary. Instead, he was a little worried about the fishy smell if blood was mixed into the rice porridge.

As a Central Plains person, although I have eaten a lot of eels, I have never eaten them like this.

Lin Xu chopped off the tail of the last eel and threw it into the basin:

“It won’t have a fishy smell, but will be very fresh and sweet.”

At this moment, the blood in the eel has not completely flowed out. He did not take the next step, but came to the casserole where the rice porridge was cooked to check the cooking status of the rice porridge.

In two oversized casseroles, rice porridge is tumbling. The rice grains have swelled but have not bloomed yet.

Lin Xu put some lard into each of the two pots to make the porridge more fragrant and smoother in texture.

Then I cut a few slices of ginger and threw them in, which can effectively remove the fishy smell from the eel and make the eel porridge more delicious.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xu boiled some water in the pot and turned down the heat when it reached 70 degrees.

Not long after, the eel stopped swimming, and there was obviously more blood in the basin, and the color was close to deep red, indicating that all the blood had been released.

Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the eel and put it directly into the hot water pot.

After putting it in, quickly cover the lid, turn up the heat, wait until the water in the pot boils, then turn off the heat and start simmering.

This is done to wash away the mucus on the surface of the eel, which can effectively reduce the fishy smell.

In fact, when some people in the south eat this porridge, they will directly throw the eel with its tail cut off into the cooking rice porridge, allowing the eel’s blood to come into close contact with the rice porridge. It is said that the resulting porridge is also very delicious.

But Lin Xu always felt that the eel without removing the internal organs tasted a bit weird, and he couldn’t get over it.

Holding the eel blood and picking up the leak, Lin Xu poured the blood water that had just been released into the two pots of rice porridge respectively. When pouring, he used the leak to prevent impurities from flowing in.

The blood was poured into the pot, and the eel was almost simmered.

Lin Xu opened the lid of the pot and found a layer of dirty mucous membrane hanging on the surface of the eel. This was the mucus on the surface that solidified after being heated, and was also the main source of the fishy smell of the eel.

Take it out with a slotted spoon, put it into clean water, then pick up the eel and gently rub it, and the mucous membrane on it will be cleaned.

After cleaning, use a toothpick to peel out the meat and bones of the eel, and remove the internal organs.

Don’t throw away the eel bones. Put them in the rice porridge and simmer for a while. This way the rice porridge will taste better and the nutrients in the bones will be cooked out.

Put the bones into the pot and pour some rice wine into it to remove the fishy smell.

As for the removed eel meat, cut it along the waist with a kitchen knife, cut it into long sections of more than ten centimeters, and set it aside for later use.

Soon, a layer of foam formed in the pot, and the originally white rice porridge turned gray-brown. This was because the eel blood had changed color after being boiled.

Use a spoon to knock off the foam, then use chopsticks to pick out the eel bones and throw them away.

At this time, the rice grains in the pot have bloomed, and the rice porridge has become visibly thicker. This is because of the eel blood in the pot.

Lin Xu added some pickled diced radish to the pot to increase the salty flavor of the porridge, then put the eel meat in and stirred it a few times with a spoon to quickly spread the eel meat.

Continue to cook, and when the rice porridge in the pot becomes thicker, add a small spoonful of salt, two small spoons of pepper, and some chopped celery for color matching.

Stir, turn off the heat and remove from the pot.

“Okay, get ready to eat.”

There were two large casseroles of rice porridge, which smelled rich and fragrant, but the appearance was a bit disappointing. The gray-brown porridge gave people a dirty feeling.

Lin Xu took the casserole outside, then brought a stack of soup bowls, and put them in one bowl at a time. Next to them were chopped chives and coriander. You can add more if you want.

“Come, come, come and have a try. This kind of porridge is not easy to get in the north.”

When people in the north eat eels, they usually throw away the blood. Unlike in the south, where eel blood is regarded as a great tonic, they will not throw away eel blood even if they throw away eel meat.

“Why does this color look so gray?”

Shen Jiayue thought it was made by Bai Shengsheng, but she didn’t expect that it turned out to be several shades darker.

But she didn’t doubt the taste of the porridge. After all, it was made by Xu Bao himself. Could the taste be bad?

Put some chopped chives and coriander into the bowl, stir it up casually, then pick up the spoon, scrape a little rice porridge along the edge of the bowl, and blow it into your mouth.

The moment she entered the entrance, the girl was stunned:

“Wow, this rice porridge tastes so good, doesn’t it?”

When you drink it, the first thing you feel is the unique softness and smoothness of rice porridge, followed by a very delicious taste without any fishy smell.

Chen Yan also looked surprised:

“I didn’t expect this porridge to be made from eel. It tastes really good.”

The rice porridge is quite hot at this moment, so I can only drink it by slowly scraping it along the edge of the bowl, which makes me very anxious, but I can’t wait for the temperature of the rice porridge to come down, because the taste is really great and I can’t stop eating it.

Geng Lele took a bite and immediately took a photo and sent it to the small group:

“The eel porridge is ready. Brother Xu said that there is a lot of eel blood in it, but it doesn’t taste fishy at all. It’s fresh and delicious, with a hint of sweetness, which is very satisfying.”

As soon as the message was sent out, Yan Lin also replied with a photo:

“It just came here. It looks average, but it smells pretty good.”

Cui Qingyuan, who has not yet finished the meeting: “…”

Two great saints, can you collect your magical powers first?

If this comparison continues, it will be me who gets hurt in the end!

Thinking about how harsh he was to Lele in normal times, Professor Cui believed that this was an act of revenge planned and implemented by his goddaughter.

In the store, Geng Lele took two mouthfuls of porridge and was about to continue to discuss the taste of eel porridge with his godmother when Ma Zhiqiang brought a small pot of fried fish out of the kitchen.

This is the cocked mouth caught by Geng Lele in the afternoon.

Ma Zhiqiang just cleaned up, cleaned all the fish scales, gills, and internal organs, then marinated it with onions, ginger, and pepper, then wrapped it in dry powder and fried it in a pan.

The meat of the cocked mouth is relatively thin and can be fried through easily.

The fried pork belly tastes fragrant and crispy, and even the fish bones can be chewed, which is very suitable for drinking.

When Geng Lele saw this delicacy brought over, he immediately took a photo and sent it to the group:

“Daddy, I caught these in the ginkgo garden in the afternoon. They were all made into your favorite dry-fried croquettes. Hurry up and eat them. If you don’t eat them, they will get cold!”

After sending the message, the girl’s lips curled up:

“Humph, when you notice that I am retaliating, just play the family card and see if you still think that I am retaliating… It will be endless fun to fight with your godfather!”

Sure enough, when the picture was released, Cui Qingyuan didn’t think his godson was taking revenge, but thought he was overthinking it.

But before, the store made so many delicacies without sending them to the group. What happened today? If it wasn’t revenge, could it be that it was tempting Linlin?

Professor Tangtang was actually stumped by this question.

Soon, the meeting ended, and he hurriedly left the office. He declined the request of his colleagues to have dinner together, went downstairs, bought a shared bicycle, and went straight to Yingchun Street.

Regardless of whether it was revenge or not, the eel porridge and the dry-fried little cocky mouth tempted him very much.

Hurry to the store and have a couple of glasses of wine to enjoy yourself.

In the store, Wei Gan brought over a portion of prepared stir-fried fish, as well as two large fried fish, which were also caught by Geng Lele.

Small fish is suitable for dry frying, and large fish is suitable for dry frying. They both taste super good.

Lin Xu took a sip of the eel porridge with a spoon, and then tasted the eel meat. It had a soft texture and delicious taste, and was a perfect partner with the rice porridge.

The diced salted radish and celery garnished inside add texture and flavor, making the porridge even more delicious.

Next to a few people, Tongtong held a small bowl and blew on it for a long time. When she didn’t want to burn her mouth, she took a small taste. The taste was very satisfying.

Worried that the girl’s teeth would not be able to chew food, Ma Zhiqiang even fried two soft-boiled eggs for her and sprinkled some salt and pepper on them, which looked delicious.

Niu Chuang also cut the freshly baked bread into slices and sent it over.

If you can’t chew hard things, the bread slices should be fine.

“Thank you Uncle Niu, thank you Uncle Ma… Huh? You two together are Uncle Niu and Ma?”

Lin Xu smiled and said:

“You girl’s mouth is really… you can’t shout like that, it’s not a good thing to say.”

There is no derogatory term for “cow horse” in itself, but in the past two years, there have been so many companies that treat their employees as cattle or horses, causing this word to have a different color in the eyes of ordinary people.

To be on the safe side, it’s better not to mention it.

Niu Chuang didn’t mind this title. He smiled and said to Tongtong:

“In the past, we were really like cows and horses, but not anymore after coming to Lam Kee.”

“Why?”

“Because our salary has been improved. We have five insurances, one housing fund, bonuses, and a year-end bonus at the end of the year. We didn’t even dare to think about it in the past.”

Tongtong slurped down a piece of eel meat and was very moved by these words. She turned to look at Lin Xu and asked:

“Uncle Xu, can I come and work in the store? My mother tells me every day that I eat and drink from her. I want to support myself without spending a penny from her…”

Lin Xu said dumbfounded:

“I don’t dare to use child labor illegally, Tongtong. You should be polite, polite and sweet when talking to your parents at home. Don’t always think about confrontation.”

“I can not……”

“What’s wrong with this?”

“Because as soon as I behaved, my mother suspected that I was being naughty again. She still didn’t believe me when I said no, and said that I didn’t tell the truth and wanted to beat me…”

Darling, this girl has caused such a psychological shadow on Yu Hui.

However, such a quirky little girl must be strictly controlled to avoid causing any big trouble.

While eating, Cui Qingyuan came.

When he saw the eel porridge in everyone’s bowl, he couldn’t help but sniffed:

“This porridge is really good, it smells delicious.”

At this moment, Qi Siliang happened to come out to eat after finishing his work and served him a large bowl.

Cui Qingyuan took it, sprinkled it with chopped chives and coriander, and couldn’t help but take a sip before he sat down:

“Wow, this porridge is so delicious…”

He sat down, took two more sips, and then sent a message to Lao Huang:

“The store made eel porridge today, and it tastes super good. Can you send some eel to the store tomorrow? I’ll treat everyone to another porridge. It tastes great. Boss Huang can come and try it when he’s not busy. ”

Lao Huang had just arrived at Yingchun Street and originally planned to go straight to the North Fourth Ring Road to go home. When he saw this news, he immediately turned around and parked the car in front of the store.

Since there is delicious porridge, you should try it. If you like it, ask your wife to come over and try it together next time.

At this time, Geng Lishan also came to the store. They gathered together and naturally wanted to have a drink or two.

“Spring is the time when all things come back to life. It is suitable to eat eel to replenish qi and blood, which is good for the body.”

After Geng Lishan finished speaking, he took a piece of fried fish and ate it, then picked up the wine glass and took a sip, feeling comfortable.

It’s a pity that Boss Shen is not here, otherwise it should be more enjoyable.

Cui Qingyuan said to Lin Xu:

“I’m going to buy another ten or twenty kilograms of eel from Boss Huang. Let’s eat eel porridge tomorrow afternoon. I’ll start with at least three bowls today. This porridge is so delicious that I can’t get enough of it.”

Lao Huang doesn’t like to drink porridge because this kind of food can easily make you fat.

But in just a few minutes from entering the store to now, I drank most of the bowl of porridge.

If it weren’t for the fact that the casserole’s heat retention was so good that the porridge was quite hot to the mouth, the whole bowl would have gone into my stomach.

“I really didn’t expect eels to do this. I’ve learned a lot. I’ll bring my wife to try it tomorrow…Brother Lin, ask your father-in-law to come too. He likes to eat this kind of tonic food.”

My father-in-law has changed his mind and taken a fitness route… Lin Xu muttered in his heart that he had not planned to notify his father-in-law, so as not to delay his fat loss.

But considering that this eel porridge is quite rare, let’s try it together.

In addition, the tea oil duck is almost cooked. I will bring two of them to the store tomorrow to steam them for everyone to try, so as not to find out that the taste is not good when the wedding banquet is approaching, and have to change other dishes in a panic.

Thinking of this, he said:

“Okay, I’ll notify him later.”

Shen Jiayue asked in a low voice:

“Dad is very determined to lose weight. What if he doesn’t come?”

“If you ask him to have eel porridge, he will definitely not want to come. After all, delicious food can easily reduce the motivation for fitness… But if you ask him to control the wedding banquet dishes, he will never refuse.”

Food is only for the appetite, but wedding banquet dishes are a big deal in the family. If they are spoiled, they will affect the senses of the guests.

Shen Jiayue didn’t expect that there was so much to pay attention to.

She finished the porridge at the bottom of the bowl, picked up her phone and tried to send a message to Shen Guofu:

“Dad, Xu Bao is preparing to cook the dishes for the wedding banquet tomorrow. Can you come and check them?”

Lao Shen immediately replied:

“Do you do it at noon or at night? This is business, no matter how busy you are, you have to go!”

Wow, is this the charm of language?

Just as Shen Jiayue was feeling emotional, Xiaodong sent a message:

“Boss Boss, your express delivery has arrived.”

The girl didn’t react for a moment and replied curiously:

“What is it?”

“It seems to be clothes. It says…shirt. Are you cosplaying with the boss?”

Shen Jiayue: “!!!!!!!!!!!”

Ahhhhhhhhh, I actually forgot about this!

Her face suddenly turned red, and she quickly went downstairs with her car keys, intending to put her embarrassing clothes in the car to avoid everyone watching later…

Damn this store, they promised to deliver the goods privately, but they even wrote about the jersey. It’s really annoying!
