She came upwardly alongside this interesting combination of the famous Shanghainese drunken chicken alongside cucumbers to laissez passer on it a crunchy texture, which I recreated for today's post....
Congratulations to her creation every bit it is a rather creative ane that she insisted must induce got the crunchy cucumbers for texture.
In this classic dish, the sweetness amber tones of the Shao Xing rice vino duo beautifully alongside the chicken, which has taken a shape of a roulade.
Originally I had intended for it to survive circles - chicken followed yesteryear cucumber simply the size of the mould didn't allow me produce that. Of course of report every bit Murphy industrial plant his law, fifty-fifty the chicken pieces didn't stick to the mould too floated a fiddling away.
Despite those fiddling hiccups, I am yet really pleased alongside the texture, gustatory modality too whole expect of the jelly.
