The so-called "star rating", if we use the Michelin restaurant rating standard, "refers to the level of the food itself, including the quality of the ingredients, the skill of seasoning, the level of cooking, the personality and consistency of the cuisine" and so on.
Some of the starred restaurants I've eaten at are street stores (in Macau) and expensive restaurants (in Shanghai), and there are both Chinese and Western foods, not limited to categories
For our daily home kitchens, we can actually learn a lot of "starred cuisine" cooking techniques, such as handling and combining of ingredients, cooking styles, as well as plating, etc. This way, we can usually entertain our friends and family, and have a good time. This way, you can prepare a ritualistic, delicious and exquisite meal for your loved ones and friends when you invite them to a dinner party or on a holiday or anniversary.
Today, I'd like to share with you two recipes that are very suitable for novice cooks,
And the two recipes that I've chosen on purpose--
On the one hand, they are very tasty and delicious, and even if they are Western-style food, they are very suitable for the Chinese stomach after I've improved them; On the other hand, they don't require any expensive and troublesome ingredients, they are all common everyday foods.These are all common everyday foods, and they are all "no-fire" cuisine, which does not require any cooking skills, and is especially suitable for summer eating.
It is recommended that you collect, this is really hand in hand to teach, packet management to learn, home dinners and so on, you can show your hand to
Salmon Tartare
Spanish Cold Soup
Salmon Tartare Salmon TartareOn the salmon tartare, I have written a special reply:
How to put the make people unappetizing fat-reducing meal into a value-added Netflix cuisine?
I've eaten this style or similar styles in quite a few expensive restaurants, except that starred restaurants may use more expensive ingredients, such as adding caviar, cod, lobster meat, etc.
A similar dish at a starred restaurant in Lake Tahoe, California, uses Alaskan snow crab meat
One of the best features of this dish is that it is colorful and layered, looks "high class" but is actually "handy", and the ingredients are "as abundant as they are frugal", so that even the most common ingredients used in home cooking can be used to make this dish exquisite and tasty.
How does it work?
First of all, we need a mold, that is, a tool that can keep this dish "cylindrical" or "square", with the help of this tool, directly let the "dish" difficulty down to 0.5. This mold, which is about a few dollars or a dozen dollars on the Internet, not only can do this "salmon tartar", but also can do a lot of beautiful Chinese gazpacho. If you don't have any on hand, it's okay, use disposable paper cups at home, cut off the bottom, can also be used for modeling. Or cans, cut off the ends, also no problem. As long as it's a cylindrical barrel-shaped container with two open ends, it's fine.
○原料:
原料这里其实非常随意
我这里给大家分享是我个人觉得特别好吃的一个组合,搭配起来颜值很高。 They are tomato, sashimi salmon, avocado, white water egg, and mango.
Basically, I choose some vegetables that are suitable for gazpacho, such as common tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., plus some seasonal fruits with high sweetness and sourness, like peaches, mangoes, dragon fruits, etc., and lastly, some high-protein seafood ingredients, which can be eaten raw, such as sashimi grade salmon, tuna, etc., or shrimp, crab meat, etc., that have been pan-fried in advance.
The other two ingredients that I usually add, in terms of this 'cylindrical structure', are ingredients that are used as a base, to add viscosity, and that's the white-water egg and the avocado, and also to give the dish a more layered flavor on the palate, with more of a greasy aroma and egg flavor.
