Speaking of which, you may not know, dishes in the circle of friends, in addition to "Greater China potato promotion ambassador" title, there is also a loud name - "Guangdong region Szechuan cuisine promotion ambassador! "
It's a good thing that I'm not a big fan of this.
Not only do I love Sichuan cuisine, but I'm also passionate about promoting it to my friends!
Whether you love spicy or not, as long as on my house to eat a few times, go back to the heart began to miss the Ma Po Tofu Stick Chicken Spicy Chicken Jagged Noodles ......
After all, when the dish is also like this, was my aunt into the Sichuan cuisine "pit" ~
When it comes to Sichuan cuisine, we always think of hemp and spicy, in fact, the essence of the Sichuan cuisine, but not in the spicy, but in the composite seasoning to create a fascinating flavor.
For example, the last time I did the strange flavor chicken, ordinary people only think it's delicious, but do not know that behind the seven flavors, is a dozen spices of the mix.
Another example is this bean curd fish that I'm making today, which is different from the light approach that Cantonese people often eat, and the rich sauce that covers the fish, which is very appetizing to look at!
The fish is one of the 24 flavors of Sichuan cuisine, and it's a "homey" flavor.
It's not easy to get it outside of Sichuan.
In Guangzhou, the number of Sichuan restaurants that make douban fish is too many to count, and it's far less popular than pickled fish.
It's not that it's not good, it's that it's not pleasing to the eye, and although it's a homemade flavor, it doesn't fit into the streamlined production methods of a big restaurant.
Moreover, the so-called homemade flavor, in fact, eating is a taste of home.
The seasonings used are all commonly found in Sichuan homes. Bean paste, ginger and garlic, sugar, salt, and cooking wine are all things that you can't eat outside, but it's not hard to do at home.
The traditional bean curd fish, most of the grass carp or crucian carp to do, but these two kinds of fish small thorns, eat up always not enjoyable.
So the dishes improved a little, replaced by less meat tender tilapia, you can also according to their own preferences for perch, carp, taste are not bad.
No extra side dishes, 13 flavors of the seasoning, is the main event of the day.
The tilapia is first flavored with dashi, then fried whole, both to remove the fishy flavor, but also to set the shape.
After the cooking, the fish can be shaped and not rotten, until the beautiful on the table.
The sauce is boiled first and then thickened, and the consistency should not be too thick or too thin, so that the dish will be red and shiny.
Vinegar should be added after thickening, not volatile, and sugar fusion iterative sweet and sour flavor.
Scallions must be sprinkled before the pot, with a rich gravy to lock the scallion flavor.
The changing heat allows the meat to tighten and the overlapping ingredients to create a rich flavor.
Finally, the garlic, ginger, scallion, and bean curd vinegar blend perfectly. Salty, fresh, sweet, sour and spicy, I can't tell which flavor is on top, but I can only feel the submission of my taste buds.
