Chapter 459: Bean Skin

"Are the Eight Treasure Porridge?" Bai Renzong stirred the Eight Treasure Porridge with interest and carefully checked the ingredients inside.

After a rough look, you can see black rice, glutinous rice, and barley inside. In addition, red beans, walnuts, peanuts, lotus seeds. The ingredients are very ordinary, but this strong fragrance shows that this eight-treasure porridge is definitely not as simple as it looks.

So Bai Renzong scooped up a spoonful and tasted it, then sighed comfortably: "Ah, what a soft taste, it feels like being held in the chest by the girl he likes..."

At this time, Han Jiayi frowned and glanced at Cai Jia's majestic chest and muttered something.

"It's so strange that this porridge has only these ordinary ingredients." Carl Brando said in confusion, "But why can it have such a strong fragrance and taste?"

"It's very simple." Cai Jia smiled and said, "Actually, it's similar to how I process spices. Each ingredient is treated in a different way to maximize its fragrance. For example, black rice is first fried in the pan and then boiled in water; then it's barley, dried and then cooked, and its flavor will be stronger, and every ingredient is like this."

"So that's what it is..." Yamamoto Yuto suddenly realized and took another sip: "The stomach suddenly became warm and comfortable."

He pointed to the porridge in front of him and said with satisfaction: "This is the kind of porridge I want to drink after drinking. After a bowl, today will be a perfect ending in one day. It's great."

"I have to say, this is indeed a very good dessert," Emma Berry smiled approvingly. "I really like the sweetness of it, and this sweetness comes from the cereals in it, and the aroma of this cereal is also great."

Bai Renzong was silent for a while, and then asked tentatively: "There are some medicinal herbs in it, right? I tasted Codonopsis and Angelica..."

"It's worthy of being Brother Zong." Cai Jia smiled, "This is actually a medicinal porridge, which gives a little Chinese herbal medicine to add fragrance and enrich nutrition. But in fact, porridge itself is a medicinal diet. my country has had the so-called "porridge therapy" since early on, and drinking porridge for a long time to relieve the stomach and produce saliva. Brother Zong, if you need it, I can cook it for you every day..."

"Cough cough." Han Jiayi cleared her throat, took the food forward, and forced her to interrupt their chat.

"Husband?" Han Jiayi looked at him with a smile, with a hint of questioning on her face.

"Okay." Bai Renzong smiled dotingly, "Let's see your cooking?"

"Hmph..." Han Jiayi looked "This matter is not over" and then placed the tray in front of Bai Renzong.

Looking at the dish, Bai Renzong couldn't help laughing: "Oh, you naughty girl..."

The dishes on the tray are four square pieces that look like braised pork, and you can clearly see the three layers of layers.

The top layer is a layer of yellow egg skin, with some green onions sprinkled on it for decoration, the second layer is a layer of brown filling, and the bottom layer is white glutinous rice.

That’s right, this dish is a famous breakfast “doupi” in Beichang City.

This kind of bean skin is not the same as those made of soybean products, but a breakfast made of glutinous rice. The noodles made of eggs, soybeans and rice are fryed in the pan until crispy, then spread the steamed glutinous rice on the egg skin, and finally spread the filling made of dried fragrant, bamboo shoots, pork, and Xianggu on the glutinous rice, and this snack is finished.

"It's cute and smart." Bai Renzong said seriously, "but it depends on the taste."

As he said that, Bai Renzong picked up a portion of bean skin and ate it. The crispy crust came from the aroma of rice and eggs. The filling on the lower layer was made of fresh pickled vegetables, green beans, dried fragrant and pork. It was fried with soy sauce, sugar, and cooking wine, but it was not salty.

Of course, the protagonist of the end is still the glutinous rice at the bottom. The filling soup is soaked in the glutinous rice, which also brings a hint of salty aroma, and gives a little pepper to season, but the magical thing is that none of this covers the fragrance of the glutinous rice itself.

Even in the eyes of Bai Renzong, an authentic Beichang people, this is a very excellent bean curd. There are adjustments made by Han Jiayi himself, such as sandwiching the filling between the bean curd and glutinous rice, so as to prevent the filling from spreading. The traditional bean curd filling is under the glutinous rice, which is easy to separate from the glutinous rice when eaten. This small detail is very good.

In addition, the bean skin is crispy and delicious, and the glutinous rice is steamed just right, neither too hard nor too rotten. After eating it, the glutinous rice smells full of the mouth.

Bai Renzong likes this dish very much. Usually he and Han Jiayi often eat this when they eat breakfast outside, and Han Jiayi naturally makes it more suitable for his appetite. But he is a little worried: Will this dish be too ordinary for these foreign judges?

"It's delicious, but..." Bai Renzong was preparing to comment, but other reviewers spoke first.

"This dish is great too!" Carl Brando exclaimed, "The taste and taste are full of layers. The surface of the egg skin is crispy and delicious, full of the aroma of eggs and rice. The filling below has a strong sauce aroma and is not too salty. The last glutinous rice tastes soft and glutinous, exudes a strong aroma of glutinous rice. It's so delicious! I like it!"

"Indeed." Emma Berry nodded with satisfaction, "The very cute appearance, rich flavor and taste, and the strong aroma of glutinous rice perfectly matches the theme and is also of class. This is really an excellent dish. What is its name?"

"It's called Doupi," Bai Renzong explained, "in fact, it was improved based on a local snack."

"Ah, Ou Yishua!" Yamamoto Yuto exclaimed, "Our country also has a lot of glutinous rice dishes, but this... is really delicious. I think even those who are in contact with glutinous rice for the first time will definitely like this dish, which is a bit unstoppable!"

The unanimous praise from the other three judges also made Bai Renzong shake.

He guessed that it was probably because he was too familiar with this dish, so the impact was not so strong for him. But for those who had eaten this dish for the first time, the impact was completely different.

If you think about it carefully, the form of this dish of Doupi is indeed quite in line with the concept of Westerners: it has a sense of layering.

Although this is just a household snack for the locals in Beichang City, this cannot deny the technical content of the dish "beanpi".

In fact, the process of making bean peels is also very complicated.

The glutinous rice and filling need to be processed in advance, and the ratio of rice, soybeans and eggs must be precise. Then put the glutinous rice and filling until it is just right, and then turn the whole bean skin into a large amount of money during the production process.

So, what about even down-to-earth snacks? Is the difficulty and taste of the dishes worse than those in high-end restaurants? Absolutely not. I feel that the dishes are not of sufficient quality just because they are local snacks. This idea is arrogant.

What's more, "Doupi" is the result of what Chen Jianfeng mentioned before.

This dish is one of the many years of Chinese cuisine cultures. He should affirm it so that everyone will recognize its value and be willing to inherit this culture.

"This dish is a well-known and historical local snack in Beichang City." Bai Renzong introduced in detail, "I highly recommend that you come to Beichang City to experience it. Of course, the finished products they made are not as good as those made by my Mumu, but the prices are affordable. Maybe everyone thinks this is a snack that can be seen everywhere, but this does not mean that this snack is not excellent enough. From the reactions of these three judges from abroad, you can see that it is indeed a great dish."

Finally, there is a scoring stage, which is scored by Shirato, Carl Brando, Emma Berry and Yuto Yamamoto.

Adam's coconut milk rice crust scored 98/99/98/97. This dish is not only unique and creative, with excellent visual effects, but also very difficult to cook; Jiro Nakamura's grilled rice ball scored 98/97/98/99. It has a simple appearance but strong cultural characteristics, and the taste and taste are also very layered.

Chen Jianfeng's Bodhi Yuzhai won a high score of 99/99/100/99. The shocking taste showed amazing cooking skills, but the only drawback of this dish is that it lacks a certain sense of layering in the taste.

Jamie Tira's Burrito scored 100/99/99/100. The three rice paired with three nuts perfectly demonstrated the flavor, taste, taste and aroma of the three rice, which are rich and impeccable.

Yang Hua's sauce-poured pot bar got a high score of 100/99/100/99. It has a crispy texture and rich aroma and a perfect use of the sauce. It is a perfect dish.

Paul Patterke's chicken wing rice dumplings scored 98/99/99/98. He used fried rice powder and pot soup to condition the rice dumplings in the chicken wings, making the rice more profound and strong, and pressing the chicken became the protagonist.

Cai Jia's eight-treasure porridge scored 98/97/99/100. It is the only dessert among all dishes, rich in nutrition, medicinal properties, and a strong personal style. It is unique among all dishes.

In the end, Han Jiayi's bean curd won a high score of 98/100/99/99. Although it was improved by local snacks, it was undoubtedly very successful in terms of results. Three foreign judges favored this work.

It can be clearly seen that everyone's scores in this issue are much higher than usual, with the lowest score of 97 points.

"I was thinking that this episode of "rice" would make some people look ugly," Bai Renzong smiled, "But it seems that I still think too much, and everyone performed very well. So now it is certain that the first place in this episode is tied with Jamie Tira and Chef Yang Hua. Don't rush to leave, because this championship determines the content of the next episode! In the next episode, we will fight in a team! And the two winners in this episode are the two winners in this episode!"
