Chapter 251 Man climbs the ladder and fish jumps on the dragon gate

Dengyun duck is a dish with very diverse ingredients. This dish actually cooks duck feet, and it is also the most plump wild duck feet.

Unlike other birds, other game birds love to fly around the sky when they are fine. They are all fitness experts. It is strange that they can be fat. Meat is not only firewood, but also fishy. Many diners actually eat it.

Fresh, not as good as artificial breeding.

But wild ducks and geese are different. They are born on water, and the more modern they are, the fewer natural enemies. If humans do not attack, they can reproduce without restrictions. There are fish and shrimps in the water. In addition, these guys don’t like to exercise, so they are not so good at sports.

There is a saying that even wild ducks are fat, they are fat and oily. In particular, duck paws are more plump and delicious than artificial breeding. This is the reason for eating live food for a long time.

Sun Desheng spent more than a day just to find the fattest wild duck and then take his fat palm as the basic ingredient for this dish.

The first step in making a cloud duck is to grow hair. You need to remove the hard skin of the fat duck's duck's feet and soak it in rice wine. It takes at least twenty-four hours to soak it until it is as thick as a child's fingers.

application.

Sun Desheng drank the other disciples, leaving only Wang Shenghai, Zhouzhou, and Zhang Zhouxuan in the kitchen. Even Su Rou and Wu Jiushe were politely rejected by him. This dish is his unique skill and can be passed on to

Zhouzhou, a rising star with a promising future, is not worried that Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan, a national cooking master, will learn the skills, but will never show it in front of Su Rou and Wu Jiushu.

There is a trick to tear the hard skin of the duck palm in this step. You must use the duck palm that you just cut off. While your blood is still there, quickly soak it in hot water and open it along the edge of the palm, and tear it open in the direction of the duck toe.

Seeing that Sun Desheng had handled a duck foot at most two or three times, Zhouzhou and Zhang Zhouxuan couldn't help but secretly praise him. He had to practice this technique for a few days before he could get started. It's really not easy.

Zhou Zhou just nodded slightly. The legendary vegetable washing skill itself includes the preliminary processing of ingredients, so as long as he takes a look, he can do it more perfectly than Sun Desheng.

What he really cares about is Sun Desheng’s time to soak duck feet, and the rice wine used to soak hair.

Lao Sun seemed very generous, and even did not hesitate to watch him and Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan in the kitchen. When he used rice wine, he looked unnatural. The speed of pouring wine was as fast as if he had been single for seventy years.

Then he quickly covered the porcelain basin with the soaked duck feet with a lid.

The old fox said he wanted to pass on his own dish, but he still had to hide it. This is a bad habit that the Chinese master and apprentice have passed on for many years, and it seems that he is no exception.

Zhou Zhou laughed in his stomach, and flicked the porcelain basin with his fingers, praising him: "Good thing, the sound is clear."

Wang Shenghai said proudly: "Of course, this is a custom made by me in the porcelain capital, the Qingguan Kiln industry. Master Zhou, don't look at the thickness of the walls of this pot, the body is very delicate,

This basin is a stinky tofu that has been placed in three days. As long as it is washed, it will not leave any smell!"

"As Master Wang said that, that's really a good thing.

Zhou Zhou smiled and withdrew his hand. His fingers were stained with a little bit of the rice wine that Sun Desheng had sprinkled. He found a time that everyone was not paying attention to and secretly used the myth on the tip of his tongue to analyze the rice wine.

"Wine is the ancient Yue Longshan, which has been aged ten years ago. What is rare is the few Chinese medicines and honey placed in this wine. The latter is actually a rare orchid nectar?

This honey combines the taste of traditional Chinese medicine and does not leave a bitter feeling. These traditional Chinese medicines remove the earthy smell of duck feet and are beneficial for soaking.

Orchids are smaller than ordinary flowers, not to mention waiting for bees to pick them, and they also need to make honey.

Not to mention that this kind of honey is difficult to find, even if it is found, the price is probably scary. No wonder Sun Desheng rarely makes this dish. According to Wang Shenghai, it is worth his own operation.

There are not many people."

Zhou Zhou secretly thought in his heart that few people have seen Orchid Milk, let alone bought it, and I don’t know where Sun Desheng found it.

Sun Desheng was obviously stunned. He looked at Zhouzhou in surprise and said a little embarrassedly: "You have seen it too. It takes time to soak the duck's feet, so this 'Dengyun Duck' will probably be eaten tomorrow.

arrive.

Unfortunately, you came here a while ago. If it had just been a few months ago, the spring bamboo shoots had just fallen, and the taste of this "Chongyun Duck" would have been even better.

Now I can only use the spring bamboo shoots stored in the cellar. Shenghai and Lao Zheng's "Thunder Bamboo Shoots" will be urged. It will definitely be delivered tomorrow. Zhang Ji's groceries also urged him to take it. The last time Jinhua ham was not very good.

Too thin, I want to take the hind legs of the Chinese black pig. I will get the goods again next time, so I won’t have to cooperate in the future.”

"Sun Desheng is Sun Desheng. The ingredients are indeed very particular, but he said it is right. If this dish is bad, it is discounted. The bamboo shoots stored in the cellar are not fresh enough after all."

On the way back to Sun's private courtyard, Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan smiled, but he kept hiding, thinking that no one knew about the rice wine with orchid nectar added to the duck's feet? Seeing Zhou Zhou smile, he sighed: "It's true."

I didn't hide it from you, Xiao Zhou, you gave birth to a good nose, which is even more talented than my old man back then."

Zhou Zhou smiled and said, "Old man, this dish is called Dengyun Duck. Is it because of the use of bamboo shoots?"

Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan frowned and said, "Maybe, one of the ingredients used in this dish is bamboo shoots, and bamboo also means climbing up one after another. It's like going up the ladder. Maybe this dish is named after it? Xiao Zhou, what do you think

?”

Zhou Zhou shook his head: "I always feel it's too far-fetched."

If this dish can be named "Dengyun Duck" because it uses bamboo shoots, it obviously lacks enough persuasion, Zhouzhou will not agree with it.

After he said this, Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan also fell into deep thought. Xiao Zhou was right.

The ancients were different from modern merchants. They dared to name the "Soft Intestine" when using a pig intestine as ingredients. This is actually quite a bit of a problem. If you make a pile of radish, you will say it is a gathering of heroes, and it is even more unstoppable.

Attitude.

This "Chongyun Duck" should not be such a dish that is just a false name, otherwise it would not have had a huge reputation and even became the best dish for the master Sun Desheng.

It can never be so simple!

Old Master Zhang Zhouxuan's eyes were slightly shiny. Now eating is the second best. Exploring the secrets of this dish is what interested him the most.

"Ladder."

Zhouzhou kept chewing on the meaning behind this word,

If it is according to the ancients' explanation, the ladder is the "Dragon Gate".

The so-called "people climb the ladder of heaven, fish jump over the dragon gate" means that from quantitative change to qualitative change, breaking the void and replacing a new sky!

But this is just a dish, why dare you call it a ladder?

"Is it said that eating this 'Cloud Duck' can make people feel great pleasure, just like climbing a ladder?"

Although he is not young anymore, Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan's imagination is still rich, and he swallows his greed while talking.

"Well, when it comes to Dengyun Duck, I just feel that the name of this dish is not simple, but the dish is a dish, not a psychotropic drug. I'm afraid there will be no such exaggeration as the old man, right?"

"That's right, let's talk about it after eating Old Man Sun's food."

——

The master is the master. Not to mention whether Sun Desheng’s ‘Dengyun Duck’ is authentic, it can restore a little bit of taste. Just showing off one’s appearance can make people feel appetite.

The sky-blue disks burned in the top-grade china kiln in porcelain capitals are sprinkled with gold. This is truly edible gold powder. It is said that people will not only not die after eating it, but also can obtain beneficial elements from the gold powder.

Actually, this is nonsense. Golden powder is used to improve dishes, especially diners' style. It is the favorite of chefs in ordinary five-star hotels. Zhouzhou did not expect that a master-level figure like Sun Desheng would also come to this set.

?

However, the four bunches of cloud ducks placed on gold powder are quite attractive.

The duck paws are golden and the ham is light red. Each waist is tied with thin and crisp kelp silk. The color combination is very comprehensive.

Moreover, the golden powder on the bottom of the plate reflects the light, making the entire plate shine golden and fog blurry. It is really a dish that can "glow".

Of course, Mr. Zhouzhou and Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan are not ordinary diners who only look at the appearance. They each picked up a bunch of Dengyun ducks and put them in their mouths to chew them. Well, the taste is good?

Because the main bone tendons after soaking duck paws have been pulled out, and ham with half fat and thinness are cut into two pieces of thick slices, one piece of ham and one duck paw; in addition, the spring bamboo shoots are also cut into slices and smeared with honey.

Let’s tie together with kelp silk and steam it over low heat.

So when the two of them took a bite, the duck paws that were soaked just right first had a slight popping and chewy mouth, and then the ham's unique pyrotechnic matches taste, one blow and one dripping, one soft and one hard, one fat and one fragrant, in comparison

A special smell formed during the process.

When you are amazed by the unique taste formed by this contrast method, the spring bamboo shoots soaked with oil and honey are like a gust of spring breeze blowing towards you, making people feel fresh while relieving the greasy. You can't help but think of those two sentences

Poetry 'No flesh makes people lean, and no bamboo makes people vulgar'.

Good dish, a good dish of cloud duck! If it is placed in a top private restaurant or a top hotel, it will definitely be a good dish!

The master took action, it was indeed very good!

Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan praised: "It really tastes good. Mr. Sun is really old!"

"Um"

Sun Desheng looked at him with some displeasure and said that the sword was not old. These words were used to praise the old man. I am only in my early seventies. Am I old?

After seeing Zhouzhou eating his own 'Dengyun Duck' for a long time, Sun Desheng was even more unhappy: "Boy Zhou, why don't you talk? Is there something wrong with this dish?

?”

Wang Shenghai was also looking at Zhouzhou. The master was like a mountain in his heart. Who dared to question the dishes he cooked? Zhouzhou had eaten the chef's dishes without saying a word, but he frowned. What does this mean?

Zhouzhou saw Sun Desheng coming to ask, knowing that he couldn't escape, but it would be impossible to let him say something nice against his conscience, so he simply said bluntly: "The taste of Mr. Sun is still good.

,but."

"But what?" Sun Desheng asked.

"But I think this dish shouldn't be the real cloud duck yet.

Mr. Sun said that after years of research, you have recovered this ancient dish by 70 to 80 points, but if I say something I don’t respectfully, I’m afraid it’s less than 5 points?

Because in my opinion, this dish has nothing but its true taste, but its true nature.
