Volume 1 Chapter 462 Development of the Use of Green Mustard

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the bamboo building hall of Yunsha Island, the islanders tasted cold dishes with home-grown green mustard for the first time.  { At present, green mustard is not common in my country's seasoning market, especially freshly ground fresh mustard, which is even rarer. It is only equipped in small quantities in high-end seafood restaurants, and it is basically imported at a high price.  As for the paste-like seasoning called green mustard in supermarkets in the city, it is actually mostly made from a mixture of European horseradish powder and dried wasabi powder, and dyed green with food coloring. Its quality is completely different from that of fresh green mustard.  A level above.  Since this was the first time Lao Dou came into contact with this kind of condiment, he was unfamiliar with the portion proportions. In addition, everyone was not used to the taste of green mustard. As a result, they made a lot of fools of themselves at the dinner table and had different reactions.  However, after Lao Dou¡¯s rearrangement, this unusual plate of cold cucumber strips finally showed the true taste of green mustard.  It is spicy and pungent, with a stimulating taste but does not hurt the mucous membranes and stomach. The aroma is fresh and fragrant, making people sweat slightly on their foreheads without even realizing it, and makes them feel happy and uplifted.  "Good stuff, refreshing!" Jiang Yichen praised, took a mouthful of white rice, and then extended his chopsticks to the cold cucumber strips again.  After the initial discomfort, several other people at the same table gradually accepted the new taste brought by green mustard. Compared with the familiar spicy seasonings such as chili and Sichuan peppercorns, it is a completely different and new feeling.  ??Among them, Shi Suo'er has the strongest adaptability. At this time, he was taking off his chopsticks continuously, smiling broadly, with words such as "enjoyment" and "enjoyment" written all over his face.  "Shi Suo'er, don't you know a lot about it? What is this thing like?" Jiang Yichen asked.  Shi Suo'er stopped his chopsticks, frowned slightly and thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Well, I think it's pretty good, the taste and aroma are very good. But this is the first time we've tasted this, so we have no say." "You foodie"  You don¡¯t have a say yet? When you were doing renovations in the city, you probably spent a lot of time at seafood restaurants and Japanese cuisine.¡± Xizi didn¡¯t quite believe it.  "What are you talking about? Those places are ruthless in robbing people. How can we, who work hard to earn our hard-earned money, stand it?" Shi Suo'er quickly denied.  Although he loved food since he was a child, most of the monthly wages he earned at that time were enough to cover his mouth.  But after all, the fever hasn't reached that level yet.  "Forget it. I'll talk to an expert about it later." Jiang Yichen waved his hand and said.  After all, green mustard is no better than ordinary condiments such as pepper, onion, and ginger. Almost everyone here has never come across it. I¡¯m afraid no one can tell what the quality is.  It seems that we need to find someone else to appraise it.  But based on past practice.  It's probably not bad either.  After this dinner.  This means that green mustard has officially joined the ranks of the island's self-produced condiments, and also laid the necessary foundation for entering high-end catering in the future.  ¡°In addition, the wasabi leaves and petioles picked today were not wasted.  I used it to make a green vegetable and egg soup. It tastes fragrant but slightly bitter. Compared with other vegetables produced on the island, it does not have any advantage and can only be regarded as average.  In the next few days, Lao Dou tried to use green mustard with various dishes, some of which were successful and some failed.  But in any case, the island's dining varieties and taste choices are undoubtedly much richer.  Of course, sashimi and other related raw foods are not considered because most residents are not very interested.  What is particularly worth mentioning is that the method of using wasabi root to make green mustard is simple and unique. Jiang Yichen went to the kitchen to observe it on the spot.  Since there is no professional wasabi grinder on the island, I had to temporarily replace it with a cleaned stainless steel microporous grinding plate.  Remove the petiole from the upper end of the wasabi root, then hold the rhizome with one hand, place it on the grinding board and grind it in an arc shape in the same direction, using even force but not too much force.  The mud that is light green in color, has coarse particles, and has obvious fibers is the finished green mustard.  ??Fresh green mustard has a rich aroma and is the best way to eat it.  But it is easy to evaporate, so it should be ground immediately after use. If it is too much, it will be wasted.  Stone Carpenter is quite interested in the new seasoning. When he is not busy, he has been thinking about how to make it play more functions and contribute to the great cause of island cuisine.  On this day, a sudden inspiration came to him, and he hurriedly found Lao Dou and proposed the idea of ??adding green mustard to the pie.  The two hit it off immediately and started research and development work in the kitchen immediately.  The hard work pays off. After several experiments, the best ratio was found, and the special meatloaf with green mustard produced on the island was hot and freshly baked.  It turned out that Shi Carpenter really lived up to his reputation as an amateur gourmet, and of course also known as a "foodie". The special meat pie was actually quite successful and became the most popular green mustard food on the island.    Green mustard is added to the filling, which gives the meatloaf a special spicy taste in addition to its original aroma.  When everyone first tried it, they were not very used to it, but after eating a few more bites, they gradually realized the benefits of this compound taste.  This special spiciness makes the meatloaf richer in flavor, better in texture, and very exciting and satisfying.  The original meatloaf recipe seemed a bit bland in comparison.  After several meals like this, everyone even began to feel like they couldn¡¯t stop. In the words of Shi Carpenter, that¡¯s addiction.  Fortunately, this is not an addictive substance that is harmful to the human body, such as cigarettes. In fact, it has similar effects to chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns.  Since everyone likes to eat, it doesn¡¯t matter if the kitchen cooks more.  Jiang Yichen also quickly adapted to various green mustard-related foods, and it feels really good.  The various ideas that Stone Carpenter pondered were limited to just enjoying the food for a few of his own people on the island, but his thoughts were obviously further and he was more concerned about the practical commercial uses of the new seasoning.  At present, there are one and a half areas of wasabi fields. Under the care of high-concentration special nutrient water, the growth cycle is greatly shortened, and the yield naturally cannot be reduced.  There is no specific timetable for the planned seafood restaurant. If the plan is solid, we will have to wait until the right to use the sea area is obtained before the preparatory work can be officially launched.  In this case, maybe the wasabi originally prepared for the seafood restaurant can be put to some other uses first.  According to this idea, it is logical to associate the pies on the island with the Koufu Thousand Layer Pancakes in Linjiang City. It seems to be a very appropriate arrangement to add a spicy flavor variety to the series.  The green mustard produced on the island is quite effective. You only need to add a little bit to achieve satisfactory results without consuming a lot of raw materials.  On the contrary, if you put too much, it will be unbearable.  After careful consideration, Jiang Yichen picked up the phone and dialed the phone number of manager Zhang Fenglan.  (To be continued)
