Chapter 318 Especially greedy for this one

On the 20th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, catfish come to celebrate birthdays.

This old saying is often mentioned in Maxima.

The main thing is that the squid meat is tender and very delicious.

Zhang Jinyu wanted to learn how to make this dish, so when Fu Yu was cooking, he would add a few extra words.

"Knocking fish is made in a unique and very elegant way. We choose squid with few spines and thick meat. After peeling and deboning, cut the fish into two halves from the back, and then cut into 5 cm square fish fillets with a thickness of about 0.5 cm. Put the starch on it, and use a rolling pin to slowly beat it into a round piece as thin as a cicada's wing on a chopping board."

Fu Yu recounted the recipe above the classic old taste recipe intact.

Zhang Jinyu was speechless.

He has never been sure how to measure this 5 cm square fish fillet with a thickness of about 0.5 cm.

When Fu Yu thought of himself, he could quite understand Zhang Jinyu's embarrassment.

If there is no absolute hand feeling blessing, in fact, he used to be the same. The most annoying thing is "appropriate amount", "approximately" and "a small amount", as well as the clearly defined thickness. For him, it is simply troublesome and he cannot grasp it at all.

So Fu Yu specially asked Zhang Jinyu to stretch out his hand to feel the thickness of the fish fillet: "You remember this feeling, and when you encounter such a dish in the future, it will be almost enough based on the feel."

Zhang Jinyu nodded. Although the fish fillet felt very thin in his hand, and he couldn't grasp the specific feel at all, he still studied it seriously.

Fu Yu cut the squid into 1 cm thick slices.

Put cornflour on the chopping board, put the fish fillets on top, sprinkle a layer of cornflour on the fish meat, beat with a mallet or rolling pin until the skin is thin.

While beating, Fu Yu warned: "When pounding fish fillets, add raw powder in batches while beating. Don't make too much powder, as adding too much will affect the taste."

Zhang Jinyu memorized it carefully.

Fu Yu put the knocked fish fillets in a boiling water pot at 80 or 90 degrees, boiled them on high heat for about 40 seconds, took them out and cut them into strips.

"When cooking fish fillets, never use cold water in the pot, otherwise the fish soup will not be clear."

Zhang Jinyu nodded: "Okay."

Fu Yu took another pot and put chicken breast in it, put it in the pot with cold water, boiled on high heat, and scalded for 3 minutes to remove.

Shred cooked ham, shiitake mushrooms, and cooked chicken breast for later use.

Fu Yu said again: "When shredding, be careful not to be too thin, but not too thick, because the taste and the effect of the plate must be considered."

Afterwards, blanch the cabbage in a pot of boiling water for a while.

Finally, put clear soup in the pot.

Add fish fillets, cabbage sum, salt, and cooking wine.

After boiling, add shredded shiitake mushrooms, shredded cooked chicken breast, shredded cooked ham, monosodium glutamate, a little pepper, and drizzle with cooked chicken oil.

When packing the box, there is just one bottom of the bowl left.

Fu Yusheng came out and took a sip with a spoon.

It is indeed as described in the classic old taste recipe. The soup is clear and mellow, tender and smooth.

After Fu Yu had tasted it, Zhang Jinyu drank the rest of the soup in a bowl.

Then he smacked his lips: "It's so fresh!"

Fu Yu then made braised water and fish ball soup.

There are fish cakes in the fish cake shop. Fu Yu's side has finished cooking, and Bai An's fish cakes are also out of the pan.

Successfully completed the packaging of four dishes, one soup and one staple food, Fu Yu continued to take orders and cook the next table dish.

The food passer quickly sent the packed meals to the front hall.

Maxima’s packed food box is very beautiful. It’s a thin wooden box. You don’t have to worry about the bag breaking when you carry it. The food box inside is made of glass. Although it’s heavy, you don’t have to worry about it being too hot.

Although I didn't see the dishes inside, Li Weijia was very satisfied just looking at the packing box.

He rushed back to the hospital with a packing box full of anticipation.

In the waiting ward, there are six mothers living in one room, and many family members are surrounded by each person's bed, busy serving them.

Even through the curtain, it still looks chaotic, but no one feels upset.

Because they all came here to wait for the production, everyone was beaming, looking expectant and nervous.

Li Weijia's wife was in hospital bed No. 3, and family members from both sides came here, except his parents, his eldest sister, and his wife's best friend.

A large group of people were crowded together in front of the hospital bed, surrounding his wife with greetings.

His wife had a normal delivery, and the due date is today.

But it's already night, but the labor pains haven't started yet.

The whole family dared not take a step away, for fear that no one would take care of them at critical moments.

Li Weijia saw his wife lying on the bed with a big belly, accompanied by the whole family, and an indescribable touch suddenly surged in his heart.

He walked over quickly and greeted with a smile: "I'm back!"

Suddenly everyone's attention was on him.

Li Weijia handed over the packing box in his hand as if offering a treasure, his mother reached out to take it, and hurriedly called others to prepare the dining table.

His wife smiled and asked, "Where did you buy this? The packing box looks really decent!"

Li Weijia asked for credit: "Didn't you say that you want to eat the food from your hometown? I ordered it from Maxima on purpose. Take a look, is it the same as what you usually eat at home?"

His wife suddenly looked surprised: "Seafood? It's so good, I'm so greedy for this!"

His mother-in-law was moved and said helplessly: "Wei Jia, just let her get used to it, there's nothing special about the food at home, it's all seafood, it's fine when it's cooked, and it's even specially made to go all the way. once, really"

Li Weijia hurriedly said: "My wife is greedy for this, which means that the child in her stomach wants to eat too. I buy one, and both of us can eat it. I don't have to worry about it. I am happy!"

His mother also smiled and said: "Yes, try it quickly, if it is delicious, let him buy it tomorrow!"

The son-in-law knows how to love his wife, and he is happy to be a mother-in-law.

Seeing the in-laws doting on their daughter as much as their own, they couldn't help unpacking the box with a smile on their faces.

The outermost layer of wooden cover was lifted, and I didn’t feel anything. When I opened the tight and tight cover of the packed lunch box inside, a strong seafood fragrance came to my nostrils.

Several lunch boxes were opened one after another, filling the dining table.

Because Maxima uses high-quality insulated packing boxes, Li Weijia drove all the way back in a hurry, and the meal still looked steaming hot.

His wife was surrounded by the stars and the moon, and the family members watched her happily inspect each dish, then picked up the tableware, eagerly picked up the nearest one, and began to taste.

Eat the vegetables first, then the soup, and finally eat a piece of fragrant fish cake.

Li Weijia asked expectantly: "How is it? Is it delicious?"

His wife muttered vaguely while eating the food, "It's delicious! It's very similar to the one in my hometown! Especially this prawn dish, it tastes like my mother's!"

His mother-in-law looked at her daughter's delicious food, and smiled from ear to ear: "Don't eat too much if it's delicious. When you go back to give birth, you can't be too full!"
