My daily life of cooking food in Tokyo

Chapter 20 Determination
The shell is crispy.

The bean skin is flexible.

The sauce is fresh and sweet.

The shrimp meat is delicious.

Once you take a bite, your mouth will be filled with meat that you can feel, making you feel the pleasure of eating a big bite of meat.

The light sweetness provided by the chopped apples interacts with the sweetness of the shrimp meat, and combined with the special sauce, the umami taste is taken to the next level.

Different ingredients have different tastes and aromas, and in the end, the word "delicious" comes together in the mouth.

good to eat.

But it failed.

There is no notification that the task is complete.

Liu Minghui sighed, it was not that simple to create his own cuisine.

Although this Yunlong fried shrimp tastes good, it is more about the taste of Australian lobster itself.

Compared with eating sashimi directly, it is not much better.

That being the case, it would be completely useless to do so many complicated processes by yourself.

There are pros and cons.

The advantage is the outermost shell, which is perfectly fried, crispy and delicious, with a nutty fragrance, which adds a third flavor to this Yunlong fried shrimp.

After all, Liu Minghui uses the outer shell as the criterion for judging the success of frying, so it is naturally impossible to be bad.

Otherwise, all failed.

The bean skin is too thin, and after high-temperature cooking, it has completely lost its best taste.

A thicker bean skin is needed to maintain the taste under the action of high temperature.

Temperature is the most difficult magic to master in cooking.

The oil temperature is too high, causing the nuts to ripen too quickly, and the shrimp wrapped in the middle is not cooked to the best degree.

Tender enough, but not elastic enough, it failed.

As for the sauce, it was even more of a failure.

What Liu Minghui thought was innovative turned out to be a failure.

Excessive sauce and excessive saltiness ruined the overall deliciousness of Yunlong fried shrimp.

Delicious, but not a successful dish.

There is still huge room for improvement.

Finally, it was the toothpick that Liu Minghui used by chance.

The part where there is a toothpick will be affected by the toothpick, and the texture and taste will be a little worse than other parts.

Then there is the final cooldown.

Because it is just relying on feeling, the grasp of time is still a bit inadequate.

Take this time, for example, it took a little longer.

The temperature of the crushed nuts is not good, which affects the taste.

Chewing on this failed work with big mouthfuls, although it was not successful, Liu Minghui still planned to eat it completely.

Only by tasting every part of your cooking can you find the flaws and make improvements.

Of course, the most important thing is expensive.

Even if the Yunlong fried shrimp, which cost close to [-] yen, is unpalatable, Liu Minghui is not willing to waste it.

After finally eating all the fried shrimp, Liu Minghui started to prepare the sauce again.

On the other side, he also found several sheets of bean curd with the most suitable thickness. The specific thickness is the most suitable, which still needs to be tested.

Use kitchen paper to absorb excess moisture from the bean skins, then put them in a bowl and wrap them in plastic wrap.

In this way, the water loss in the bean skin can be prevented to the greatest extent, which will affect the taste.

As for the sauce, this time it is still the same cooking method.

However, no light soy sauce was added.

Liu Minghui thought for a while, and according to the taste in his mind, he doubled the amount of crushed apples.

In this way, the sauce will be a little sweeter, and the fruity fragrance will be more concentrated.

Soak to soften, liquidize, mix, and freeze.

After about half an hour, a new sauce jelly was completed.

In order to cool it down as soon as possible, Liu Minghui even used a large iron plate as a container and put it in the refrigerator to cool down.

Coat the sauce evenly again, wrap the bean skin, cover the chopped nuts, and reduce the oil temperature.

Liu Minghui started to fry the second Yunlong fried shrimp.

The cooking time will be slightly longer this time due to the cooler oil temperature.

Soon, the second Yunlong fried shrimp came out of the pan.

It should work this time, right?
Liu Minghui rinsed his mouth first to eliminate the influence of the smell of the Yunlong Fried Shrimp before, and tasted the Yunlong Fried Shrimp No. [-] with great expectation.

Just after taking a bite, Liu Minghui frowned again.

There has been progress, but not much.

Giving up light soy sauce, adding chopped apples, and lowering the oil temperature are all feasible methods.

It's just that I haven't found the perfect balance point yet, so the taste is still a little bit worse.

Most importantly, there is no indication that the task has been completed.

In other words, this Yunlong fried shrimp is not of primary quality.

Liu Minghui sighed, there was only the last Australian lobster left, that is to say, he had his last chance left.

He couldn't help but wonder, could he succeed in this last chance?
He slapped himself hard!

Past experiences emerged in his mind, and Liu Minghui felt that he was a little too impetuous.

The appearance of which classic dish has not been improved and optimized countless times.

I just failed twice, and I began to doubt my life. I really underestimated the food.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Minghui calmed down, closed his eyes, and sat on the bench.

I began to think about the practice of Yunlong fried shrimp in my mind, and aftertaste the taste of these two Yunlong fried shrimp.

Past cooking experience emerged one by one in my mind.

The answer instantly came to my mind.

I have to choose a slightly smaller Australian lobster, so that the shrimp meat can achieve the best cooking effect when frying.

At the same time, only by using more appropriate techniques when cooking can we make Yunlong fried shrimp with better taste.

Thinking of this, Liu Minghui looked towards the pool, and found that the remaining Australian lobster was just right, and it was the smallest of the three.

This is certainly not a coincidence, after all, humans are greedy creatures.

Therefore, Liu Minghui's first two choices were bigger lobsters.

Men always like bigger things.

Facing the process, Liu Minghui started cooking again.

First, eat the apple.

Yes, eat apples.

If you don't eat it, you can't grasp the sweet and sour taste of apples and find the most suitable amount.

The quality of this apple is quite good, crunchy and very sweet, but not purely sweet.

With a little sour taste, it can just relieve the greasy.

Apples of this level can be put a little more.

Liu Minghui, who knew what he was doing, started cooking directly.

This time, he didn't choose to use a toothpick to fix it.

Why worry about gains and losses, put all your eggs in one basket, if you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.

The remaining piece of shrimp tail shell can just be used as a tool to fix the bean skin.

Carefully press the bean skins into the shrimp tail shells so that they form a harmonious whole.

Make the sauce jelly again and put it in the refrigerator. This will be the last chance to try.

It was getting late, and there were still things to do during the day, so naturally it was impossible to stay in the kitchen all the time.

While waiting for the sauce to freeze, Liu Minghui also began to conceive this dish in his mind.

Soon, his eyes became firm.

The same movement, but this time, is more fluid.

It's not that it's more proficient, it's just that after a rehearsal in the heart, it's like a god.

Soon, a brand new Yunlong fried shrimp was born in Liu Minghui’s hands.

It just needs to be cooled a little more to reach the perfect temperature for serving.

I finished!

Silently counting the seconds until it had cooled to just the right temperature, Liu Minghui finally completed this homemade dish.
