My daily life of cooking food in Tokyo

Chapter 355 Night
How can a movie be as good as that of Liu Minghui?
So Xie Zixin didn't watch the movie at all, and kept secretly watching Liu Minghui's every move.

That's why it was such a coincidence that he intercepted Liu Minghui's hand grabbing popcorn twice.

When she discovered that Liu Minghui had taken the wrong drink, her reaction was actually one of happiness.

After that, he picked it up and drank it happily.

It was as if he could feel Liu Minghui's passionate kiss through the straw.

……

Time flies so fast, no matter how long a movie is, it will eventually end.

After taking a nice sip of the Sprite in his hand, Xie Zixin stood up first.

The three of them walked out of the cinema in order.

The person walking in front of the three people seemed to be a couple.

The more sentimental woman even kept wiping away tears, as if she was moved by the plot of the movie and couldn't help herself.

A man and a woman immediately discussed the plot of the loyal dog Hachiko.

It was in stark contrast to the three people who were relatively speechless.

This is not good, it will appear that I am not watching the movie seriously at all.

Thinking of this, Xie Zixin felt a little guilty and said: "Hachi is really conscientious in his duties."

"Protect your master diligently."

"Say this, I think of Dahuang, he seems to often protect brother Minghui like this."

rhubarb?That foodie doesn't know how to do anything but eat.

Just to protect yourself?
Rather than believing in it, I might as well believe that I have superpowers. After all, I am also a systematic person.

Although the talent of this system is not in combat effectiveness.

Hearing this, Indoor Photon, who was also fishing, said: "Yes, yes, I really have to thank Dahuang."

"Accompanying the lonely Minghui, then he will not feel lonely alone."

Liu Minghui:? ? ?

Three people who were not paying attention to the plot at all were able to chat.

A somewhat depressed Liu Minghui said: "If you are really afraid that I will be lonely, why don't you move here to live with me as soon as possible?"

"If you rent an additional apartment, you will waste a lot of rent."

Move in?

When he thought of this word, Indoor Photon's face instantly turned red.

He immediately made an excuse and said, "I paid one quarter's rent in advance and it hasn't expired yet. Wouldn't it be a waste to just move in?"

Liu Minghui said nonchalantly: "You're not short of rent."

"If it doesn't work out, I'll reimburse you the rent and you can move here right away."

Indoor Photon immediately retorted: "How can that be done? Aren't you wasting money by doing this?"

She couldn't help Liu Minghui spend money lavishly before she got married.

Auntie would definitely not like such a lavish woman to be her daughter-in-law.

Just when Liu Minghui was about to continue persuading, Xie Zixin said: "Brother Minghui, since Sister Guangzi doesn't want to, don't force others to do anything."

Bah, bah, bah, I won’t help you live together.

It's best for you not to live together in this life.

Liu Minghui sighed and said, "Okay, I'll move here when your rent is due."

"Don't make any more excuses then."

"We still have some time now, why don't we go shopping in the department store."

"We'll have dinner together then. Today will be perfect."

After lunch, I went to watch a movie immediately, and the food in my stomach was barely digested.

In this case, you really need to go shopping and eat.

Then go have a dinner, as a weekend, it is not a worthwhile trip.

Naturally, it was impossible for the two of them to refuse Liu Minghui's proposal.

But what to eat at night is a bit difficult.

Especially when they suffered a critical attack from the craftsman at noon, the three of them were really distrustful of the outside world.

It is better to trust Liu Minghui's cooking skills than to trust the outside.

Suddenly, Liu Minghui had a flash of inspiration. If we don't want a few people, why don't we go back to eat?

Although it is a little more troublesome, if you all do it together, it actually doesn’t take much time.

Best of all, it saves money and tastes great.

It’s countless times better than eating out.

However, although the idea was good, neither Guangzi nor Xie Zixin spoke.

Squeeze Liu Minghui?
It's impossible for them to do such a thing.

It's better to spend some money and eat some ordinary food.

However, seeing everyone having difficulty choosing, Liu Minghui finally took the initiative and said:

"How about we go back to eat?"

"You can simply go to the vegetable market and buy some ingredients. It doesn't take long and you can have enough to eat, and the taste won't be too bad."

It's a good idea, but it's just too cumbersome.

Thinking of this, Indoor Photon decisively refused: "How can this be done?"

"It's a weekend, and Minghui is so busy, so I can't do this kind of thing."

Indoor Photon knows how to feel sorry for Liu Minghui.

Naturally, it is impossible to agree to such a thing.

The same is true for Xie Zixin.

They all said in unison: "Yes, let's eat outside."

“Easy and convenient.”

"As long as I can eat enough, I don't have high requirements."

Knowing that the two of them felt sorry for him, Liu Minghui was moved and said, "It's not necessary. Let's go back to eat."

"Afraid of my hard work?"

"It's very simple. Then help me handle the ingredients when the time comes."

"I'm just going to help you with the cooking, it's not a big deal."

Making food together?
Indoor Photon's eyes lit up.

She originally planned to cook with Liu Minghui yesterday.

Naihe was so busy being angry with Miwa Tanigawa that he completely forgot about this most important thing.

If it were today, that would be pretty good.

Thinking of this, Indoor Photon echoed: "Okay, Minghui and I will make today's dinner together."

"As for sister Zixin?"

"You are a guest, and you treated us to a big dinner at noon. How can we bother you?"

"Just wait for us to prepare delicious food for you."

Xie Zixin:? ? ?

You know how to exclude dissenters.

However, she couldn't sit still and wait for death, so she immediately smiled and said: "How can this work?"

"Since I want to eat, I have to do my part."

"Otherwise I wouldn't dare eat the dinner cooked by brother Minghui."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, it's getting late, let's go buy ingredients quickly."

"It's not bad to make it yourself. This feeling of buying whatever you want to eat is really quite comfortable."

Now that the discussion was over, the three of them stopped staying.

He called a taxi and drove towards the food center closest to his home.

If we delay any longer, we won't know when we will be able to have dinner.

Since it was a bit late, there were not many ingredients left in the market.

After looking around, I reluctantly chose some things that were relatively new.

After much thought, Liu Minghui decided to make a pot of stew.

Use the stewing method to cook food.

Let the delicious sauce continue to penetrate into the food under the action of high temperature.

Finally blended into one, presenting an extremely delicious taste.

However, he did not directly say what dishes he would make tonight.

If you know it too early, you will lose your sense of expectation.

In this way, the three of them each carried two or three bags of ingredients.

Taking advantage of the sunset, he slowly walked towards Liu Minghui's apartment.

This quiet and comfortable feeling made everyone feel very comfortable.Not long after, the three of them arrived at the door of Liu Minghui's apartment.

After opening the door and putting down the ingredients, Liu Minghui was ready to make tonight's dinner.

First is cooking.

Although this is a simple task, it is still difficult to cook the most fragrant, glutinous and delicious rice without full experience.

So Liu Minghui planned to do it himself.

After simple washing, the rice was soaked in water and put into the rice cooker by Liu Minghui.

Just press it and wait for the time to end before you can eat fragrant rice.

The rice cooker is indeed a legendary kitchen appliance.

Next, is the cleaning of the ingredients.

Indoor Photon and Xie Zixin have already started this step.

For them, this step is very simple.

Carrots, sweet potatoes, celery, onions, garlic, shrimps, pig's trotters, tripe, chicken legs, beef brisket, pork belly.

Various ingredients were simply washed, waiting for their fate to be processed by Liu Minghui and made into delicious dishes.

Take a slightly larger pan.

A large pot with a clear glass lid is best.

In this case, it is more convenient to heat the ingredients.

Take the pot and dry it.

Once the temperature in the pan has come up a little, take a small piece of butter and beef.

Heat evenly in pan.

Keep shaking until the aroma of the two oils is gradually stimulated.

Dice carrots and sweet potatoes, cut celery into large chunks, and cut onions into small slices.

Simply stir in the dried chilies and spread evenly in the pan.

After cleaning, cut the rest of the ingredients into appropriate sizes and spread them evenly on top of the base dish.

Close the lid and start simmering.

While the ingredients are maturing in the pot, start preparing the three delicacies sauce.

Take another pot.

Add appropriate amounts of sweet noodle sauce, tomato sauce, Zhuhou sauce, and pork ribs sauce.

Then add sugar, oil and light soy sauce to taste, then add appropriate amount of water and stir evenly until completely combined.

At this time, add some water starch and continue stirring to reduce the juice until it becomes thick and stringy, which is considered completely completed.

At this time, the ingredients in the pot are almost mature.

Then put the easier-to-ripe tripe on top and evenly coat with the sauce.

Simmer for some more time, until the ingredients are completely mature, sprinkle with some chopped green onion, coriander and white sesame seeds, and it's ready to serve.

A small amount of smoke is continuously discharged from the exhaust hole on the transparent pot lid.

Everywhere you go, there is an extremely fragrant smell.

The two women were so greedy that their mouths watered.

But Liu Minghui stopped them and asked them to sit upwind.

Although the fragrance smells good, like hot pot, it tends to leave a heavy smell on clothes.

In order not to wash an extra set of clothes, it is better not to be greedy for this charming fragrance.

water vapor.

Condensation continues to form on the lid.

The hazy white area makes it difficult to see the changes in the ingredients, but it creates a hazy sense of beauty.

Estimating the time, Liu Minghui directly opened the lid of the pot.

In an instant, the fragrance hits your nostrils.

As he sprinkled green onion, coriander and sesame seeds, Liu Minghui invited with a smile:

"You can start eating."

"There is one thing you should pay attention to, and that is to be careful of burning!"

"A stew pot that doesn't seem to have much soup is no cooler than a hot pot."

Without hesitation, after Liu Minghui said it was time to start eating, everyone picked up their chopsticks and got ready to start.

Isn't it just for this bite that you have been waiting for so long?
Indoor Photon's eyes were full of curiosity. What would the ingredients produced by this magical cooking method be like?

After hesitating for a moment, she reached out to a butterfly shrimp with her chopsticks.

The butterfly shrimps that have been carefully processed by Liu Minghui not only have the shrimp lines removed from their backs.

The shell at the tail was directly removed.

Just dip it in the sauce and bite into a perfect piece of shrimp tail.

It's so convenient to eat.

The cooking method of stew pot relies on the moisture of the ingredients themselves for cooking.

This is why the base ingredients are all vegetables with very high water content.

It can retain the delicious taste of the ingredients to the greatest extent.

Tight and elastic shrimp tails, plus salty and fresh sauce.

Super delicious.

Just one bite made Indoor Mitsuko fall in love with this cooking method that he had never seen before.

Secretly, it turns out that going home and eating Liu Minghui's masterpiece is the most correct choice?

Restaurant reservations made several weeks in advance?

It's just a gimmick.

It doesn't taste as good as the food prepared by Liu Minghui himself.

Hairy belly.

Extremely crispy and tender.

In order to maintain the best taste of Maodu, Liu Minghui deliberately added it at the last moment.

The tripe is slightly braised until it is just ripe, and has the most crispy texture.

One bite at a time, paired with the salty and fresh sauce, it's hard to stop.

And the pig's trotters carefully cut into small pieces.

It's hard to imagine that this pig's trotters can be so delicious.

Although it was not simmered for too long, the hesitation itself was cut very thin and was still soft and chewy.

Pig skin is mixed with fat and lean meat.

One bite produced three different changes in the mouth.

It stimulates the taste buds and is extremely delicious.

At this time, add a mouthful of soft and glutinous rice.

The aroma fills the entire mouth, whetting one's appetite and making one want to eat more.

And that wonderful pork belly.

The taste is similar to pig's trotters, but slightly softer and not as glutinous.

But a better fat-to-thin ratio, coupled with large chunks of meat, gives people a completely different feeling.

The chicken thighs are slightly leaner.

The slightly fatter chicken skin has already refined excess fat during the cooking process.

At this time, not only does it not taste greasy at all, but it is also very fragrant.

Paired with the extremely tender chicken thigh, it is extremely delicious.

The most important thing is that the chicken thigh meat has also been boneless.

It is the ultimate good news for lazy people. It is extremely convenient to eat directly.

Bang bang bang bang.

That was the sound of chopsticks stirring the rice.

Indoor Photon, who was not very hungry at first, felt that his appetite had been whetted.

At this time, it seemed as if he could eat a cow, quickly destroying the food in front of him.

After finishing a bowl of rice, he had a little time to breathe and praised:

"The taste of this stew is simply too good."

“At first, seeing how the sauce was used, I was afraid it wouldn’t taste good.”

"But when I ate it, I realized that not only was the flavor in, it was also very even."

"In fact, the ingredients themselves don't need much seasoning to bring out the original flavor."

“It’s two different flavors with or without sauce.”

“It’s a magical way to get two flavors in one pot.”
