Fish roe is rich in nutrients, especially in the world, especially Westerners, but really good fish roe can be bought at a sky-high price, not ordinary people can afford to eat, its taste is smooth and elastic, and the taste is more fragrant.
The world's most expensive caviar was once made from the roe and 22-karat gold of albino sturgeon, which is now almost extinct in its native country, so it's not just about having money to want to eat.
Liu Zhen didn't plan to use any expensive ingredients today, he felt that instead of spending so much manpower and material resources and affecting the survival of the species, it was better to spend more effort on ordinary ingredients, how much less nutrition was missing, and the taste could be completely processed to achieve the desired level.
In fact, Liu Zhen has always felt that scarcity is expensive, take wild carp and wild sturgeon as an example, people rush to eat sturgeon, do not hesitate to spend a lot of money, what is pursued is just a scene, to say which of the two types of fish is delicious, it is impossible to distinguish at all, because each has its own merits, if the number of two kinds of fish is exchanged, the price of carp is probably not much less than that of sturgeon, so for ordinary people, there is no need to envy how precious what people eat, as long as it is delicious and healthy, Street food can still be used as a great way to fill your stomach.
Liu Zhen did not go directly to the food section to select all kinds of fish roe, but went to the fresh fish pond to pick fish.
The target, of course, is those females with large bellies.
After picking three tuna in a row, they had been alive in the prepared salt water for two days, and they didn't look so energetic, Liu Zhen seized the time to open the stomach of the three fish and take out the roe.
There are a lot of them, and the whole fish belly is there, and the roe is bright yellow and compact, and it is put in a bowl after being removed.
Liu Zhen did not put the tuna aside, but cut the best meat and set it aside.
The fresh meat of tuna is suitable for raw consumption, it is very chewy in the mouth, and the juice is rich, and it is optimally one centimeter thick.
Liu Zhen first cut off the whole piece of fish and set it aside, and still couldn't tell what he wanted to do.
Judging from the ingredients taken by Xue Jia and Ren Jiaqiang, one should be to make Australian abalone stewed with Cordyceps, which is a dish that is a big supplement, of course, it is also very valuable, and each dish in the meal costs tens of thousands of yuan; The other is to make a donkey meat eggplant pot, but the eggplant is roasted on the grill, the eggplant meat has slowly loosened, sprinkled with dry seasonings and continued to roast, the aroma is compelling, but it is the most attractive one.
Liu Zhen weighed the fish roe with a scale, because there were a lot of judges, the amount must be guaranteed, and then he brought raw eggs and preserved eggs.
This is strange, those two preserved eggs successfully attracted the attention of those present, fish roe with preserved eggs, this...
Inexplicably, I feel a little disobedient.
"Brother Zhen really dares to use it, something as earthy as preserved eggs can be matched with fish roe!"
Yang Hui scratched his scalp and said.
Huang Qi'er retorted: "Brother Zhen, such a powerful chef must have seen more than you, take a good look and talk less!"
” As soon as Huang Qi'er spoke, Yang Hui was very well-behaved and immediately closed his mouth.
Liu Zhen cooked the fish roe in the pot and mashed it, because there were more bacteria in the fish roe, and it took 40 minutes to take it out, but the fish roe was not afraid of cooking, although the taste was a little soft, but it was still not lacking in chewiness.
The preserved eggs are steamed and shelled and cut into small pieces, the eggs are beaten, salt, monosodium glutamate, pepper are added, and the scattered fish roe are mixed well.
Put the beaten eggs in the pan with the bottom oil, and sprinkle with small pieces of preserved eggs before fully solidifying until they are cooked through.
This dish is so simple, so that the audience waiting to watch the big show is a little disappointed, and the judges also look at each other, they all feel that this dish is too casual, and there is even preserved eggs with fish roe, which is also very far-fetched.
Xue Jia's porridge is bubbling hot, and the combination of cordyceps and abalone can make Ren's mouth water no matter what, not to mention Ren Jiaqiang on the other side, the donkey meat has been transformed by him and is so fragrant and tender!
Liu Zhen ignored the pity or pity of others, and asked the judges to taste their dishes immediately, if it was cold, it would completely lose its taste.
This is a reasonable request, of course, Yu Yue immediately agreed, and the judges also moved their seats.
In front of me was a normal plate of scrambled eggs, which no one thought was any different from scrambled eggs, if not a little different, the brown preserved eggs on top.
"Everyone, please use it."
Liu Zhen stood on the side and smiled.
The chopsticks poked open the pale yellow eggs, and there was no trace of expectation on everyone's faces, and some even had some impatience, how could this kind of thing be embarrassed to be served?!
Barely ate the first bite.
For the first time, he continued to take another bite.
A third bite!
It's a collision of softness and hardness!
It's addictive!
The corners of Yu Yue's mouth raised a smile, she had never underestimated Liu Zhen!
"Why are you bouncing in your mouth?!"
Someone asked Liu Zhen in confusion.
Liu Zhen bent down slightly and smiled: "Do you remember how long I cooked the fish roe?"
” "It's more than half an hour...
What does it have to do with this?
"Still can't understand.
"And what did I do with the roe after I took it out?"
Liu Zhen asked again.
"Take it out and put it aside, didn't you take the eggs?"

"It's put aside, but it's put aside...... in an ice bucket. ” "Ice bucket?!"
Liu Zhen clapped his hands.
"That's right, forty minutes is enough to cook the roe softly, but this is not the texture I want, I want softness, softness with rigidity, just play!
And to lock in the essence of the roe, it is still a cake!
” The gourmand seems to understand something: "That is to say, the soft roe at high temperature will shrink when suddenly put into ice water, but at the same time, in the process of shrinking, not only the essence can be better preserved, but the contents of the roe are also tighter, so that it will have such an elastic taste, and even pop my teeth open!"
” Liu Zhen nodded.
The audience was already listening to it, imagining what kind of qualitative changes had happened to this most important step!
"You haven't eaten preserved eggs yet!
Serve hot.
"Liu Zhen reminds you that the real thing they haven't experienced yet...
Everyone came back to their senses, and looked at Liu Zhen's expression, as if there was some mystery hidden in this preserved egg!
With doubts, he moved the chopsticks again, Liu Zhen was silent, everyone present was silent, what is there to taste about a preserved egg!
"Crabs!
You also added crabs?!
Liu Zhen laughed and shook his head.
"It smells of crab!
And it's fresh and fragrant, it must have peeled off the shell and taken out the meat!
” The man was determined, as if Liu Zhen was lying to him.
Liu Zhen was helpless: "You can look at my ingredients, there are no crabs, and I can make a new one, you watch." ”
