Mix the starch with stock until it resembles a thin cream, set aside for later use.
anwhile, Lin Xu washed so shrimp skin, chopped so scallions and ginger, and minced a small bowl of garlic.
During the steaming process of this dish, more garlic should be added to ensure a rich garlic aroma. When fried, the taste is exceptionally good.
After boiling the vermicelli in the pot for five minutes, turn off the heat.
Once the vermicelli no longer has a white core and breaks easily when pinched, remove and drain it.
While cooking, half a pot of water was added, thinking it might be excessive, yet after cooking, only the bottom of the pot remains, showing how well it absorbs water.
Drain the vermicelli slightly and pour it into a basin.
First, drizzle in so dark soy sauce to mix with the vermicelli, allowing them to be evenly coated with color, making the skin residue’s hue better and the vermicelli more visible.
Mix evenly, add salt and equal amounts of Five-Spice Powder, and continue mixing.
Five-Spice Powder gives skin residue a aty aroma; historically, skin residue was treated like at, with Five-Spice Powder playing a significant role.
Next, add shrimp skin, chopped scallions, chopped ginger, and minced garlic.
Give it a stir, then pour in the cream-like sweet potato starch but reserve a little, not pouring all of it.
When starch is added, the vermicelli beco very sticky, requiring so effort to mix evenly.
Once the vermicelli and starch are thoroughly mixed, pour them into the prepared steaming tray, press down to level the surface, and finally pour the remaining starch into the tray, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Doing so makes the surface smoother, enhancing appearance.
Put the steaming tray into the steam cabinet, steam vigorously for forty minutes.
Lin Xu washed his hands and tidied up the kitchen. Once back upstairs, he noticed Shen Jiayue’s debt in the ga had reached 230,000 Euros.
He laughed and said:
"Baobao, you’re not suited for this ga; better to play GTA5, where you can drive recklessly, rob banks, and be a five-star citizen."
Shen Jiayue pouted; she’d been careful but always either hit sothing or scraped road signs, so fines kept popping up inadvertently.
"I got my license in high school, drove proficiently... This ga must be targeting , Xu Bao, could you lower the difficulty a bit?"
What’s the point in lowering it?
Lin Xu wanted to explain the joy of playing Euro Truck Simulator but decided against it.
He turned off penalties, fatigue, and other difficulty-enhancing options, even lifted speed restrictions.
Then a certain Shen Baobao went back into GTA5 mode, recklessly driving a semi-truck, becoming a definite five-star road nace.
Half an hour later...
"This ga’s boring, constantly hauling freight for money isn’t fun; I’ll play Modern Warfare downstairs instead."
Lowering the difficulty significantly diminished the gaming experience.
No longer the cautious truck driver joy; now, Shen Baobao only wants to run around shooting.
Lin Xu felt it was ti, turned off the computer, and went downstairs to prepare garlic paste, so the stead skin residue could be enjoyed once slightly cooled.
Hmm, freshly stead skin residue isn’t edible, too sticky, can’t be sliced, must cool a bit.
The best way is to let it sit overnight, then eat it the next day.
Letting it cool fully not only improves texture but also makes it easier to remove from the steam tray.
However, given Baobao’s impatience, there’s no way she’d wait until the next day, possibly not even for cooling.
In the kitchen, Lin Xu thought for a mont, then sent a WeChat ssage to Chen Yuanyuan:
"I’m at ho making skin residue from our hotown, want to co for a taste?"
Skin residue isn’t just his nostalgia but also Yuanyuan’s, so naturally, she’d co to taste it once ready, lest she later grumble that getting a wife made him forget his sister.
Chen Yuanyuan had just bathed and prepared to do yoga with Director Zeng.
Seeing the ssage, she imdiately said:
"Let’s go, let’s skip exercise and visit my younger brother."
Zeng Xiaoqi was doing planks:
"What’s up?"
"It’s delicious food, sothing you’ve never tasted."
Delicious?!
Zeng Xiaoqi jumped up, hastily pulled on her fleece-lined leggings without changing her yoga pants.
Chen Yuanyuan was speechless:
"When raising pigs at ho, we’d fatten them up in winter to have at for the New Year... Your haste makes you seem like a piglet."
"I just want to try new flavors... Let’s tactically sneak in, don’t fire until ready... Don’t ntion it in the group, I’ll only share once I’ve eaten to spite Yan Baobao, Shu Baobao, and Doudou."
Chen Yuanyuan chuckled:
"You’re truly good friends."
"Indeed, stronger than gold!"
In the kitchen, after the steam cabinet tid out, Lin Xu donned heat-resistant gloves, opened the cabinet door, releasing steam filled with the aromas of pork and vermicelli.
Carefully, he removed the steaming tray just as Shen Jiayue abandoned her controller mid-ga and ran into the kitchen:
"Wow, is this skin residue? Slls good."
It’s still too hot to eat.
To cool it faster, Lin Xu placed the steaming tray into a sink with cold water and a layer of crushed ice, using ice water to reduce its temperature.
By the ti Zeng Xiaoqi and Chen Yuanyuan arrived by taxi, the skin residue, though still warm, had cooled significantly.
Lin Xu wiped the cutting board clean, inverted the steaming tray onto it.
Lightly tapping the bottom, he gently lifted the edge to reveal a jelly-like food resembling cold jelly.
Using a slicing knife, he could see the beautiful vermicelli cross-section with a vibrant hue akin to amber encased in pine resin.
"Wow, this is Yinzhou’s skin residue? Looks great."
Zeng Xiaoqi approached, taking a photo on her phone, especially capturing a spot with shrimp skin for future group taunts amid midnight hunger.
She imagined her relatives feeling deeply touched later.
Chen Yuanyuan picked up a slice Lin Xu had cut, dipped it in prepared garlic paste, and tasted it.
"Whoa... This tastes even better than at ho; bro, you’re really skilled, this skin residue’s delicious, aromatic, and chewy with excellent vermicelli texture inside."
Shen Jiayue tasted too, pleasantly surprised:
"Delicious! Let’s bring so to the hospital tomorrow; my grandma loves these delicacies."
"Sure."
Lin Xu agreed, slicing a piece of skin residue to place in the freezer with a smile:
"Once cooled, it’ll beco firr, and you’ll taste skin residue at its finest."
"What’s the thod?"
"My childhood favorite... Fried Skin Residue!"
