冬瓜含大量水分和纖維,向來是保健妙品,特別在炎炎夏日,多吃有助清熱消暑。除了煲冬瓜湯,還可以用來烹調小菜。如怕味道太淡,可與黑松露和蟹肉同煮,即成解暑又鮮味的上等佳餚。

選料濃淡兼備
海景軒總廚梁輝雄師傅今次教大學製作的黑松露芙蓉冬瓜,是一道清新、香濃兼備的菜式,因梁師傅除了用蟹肉、蛋白、牛奶來煮冬瓜,還加入黑松露片提味,幽幽菌香,味道引人入勝。師傅表示,菌類選擇可隨個人口味改變,但所選菌類味道應愈濃愈好,否則烹調後菌味消散,便失去提味的作用。其中,牛肝菌、羊肚菌都是好選擇。由於已有黑松露菌增添食味,所以梁師傅建議只用蛋白來炒冬瓜,主要原因是蛋黃味道太香濃,配冬瓜會將瓜的甜味搶去,蛋白則較清香嫩滑,能與黑松露菌、蟹肉和冬瓜相融和。
由於冬瓜易出水,所以最好先將蛋白、牛奶、蟹肉混合,並下鑊炒至半凝固才加入冬瓜,此方法可改善出水情況之餘,亦能避免冬瓜煮得過腍。炒牛奶蛋白混合物時,切忌過熟,以便保持嫩滑口感。為了更易掌握火力,又不怕煮燶,不妨用易潔鑊來做此菜。
