Here comes the cook.

It is a face that is basically forgotten when thrown into the crowd, and the whole person is as thin as an apprentice.

Compared with the photo on the menu, I lost at least 30 catties.

He speaks Mandarin with a strong Hokkien accent.

He explained to Lin Tong,

Cantonese cuisine and Fujian cuisine have something in common.

If Lin Tong is not satisfied, then he will improve, and when Lin Tong comes next time, he must make a Fujian cuisine Buddha Tiaoqiang.

Buddha jumping over the wall, after all, is a dish that takes time.

At this moment, it is not realistic to ask the chef to go back and change the route suddenly.

Lin Tong recalled the genealogy he saw in the lobby of the old man's hotel when he was bored during the day.

Could this chef cooking in a private kitchen be one of the people whose photos were removed?
Tong Lin had a plan:
"Okay, I just want to confirm the taste with you,
Maybe our tastes are a little different. "

After speaking, Lin Tong turned the turntable, and a plate of chili and meat dishes stopped in front of the chef.

Lin Tong said politely:
"Buddha jumping over the wall is my favorite dish, try it salty or light.

Next time I will know that it is recommended that you put more salt or less salt. "

The cook looked hesitantly at the dishes, then at the manager.

The manager naturally had no objection, and the chef picked up a piece seeing Lin Tong being so polite.

"Do you think the saltiness and spiciness are okay?"

The chef put the dish into his mouth, tasted it carefully, and said seriously:

"This saltiness is quite suitable, just right."

Hearing this, Lin Tong calmly picked up a piece of fish for the chef with his serving chopsticks.

"Try this again."

This is a fish fillet, and the chef quietly wants to see which dish it is in.

But Lin Tong didn't give him this chance:

"Do you think this pickled fish is sour enough? Is the meat tender enough?"

The chef nods.

Lin Tong got the answer, as if nothing happened, he sat down and continued to drink soup.

Everyone was confused by him.

After the manager and chef left, Ye Zhirui asked:

"What's the matter? We didn't order pickled fish today. Do you want to eat it?"

Today they ordered rattan pepper fish, and there was no pickled cabbage fish at all.

Lin Tong took a bite of the fish fillet and said calmly:
"Would you believe me if I said that this chef has no sense of taste?"

After hearing this, Hou Bin poured himself a bowl of Buddha Jumping Wall soup.

After taking a sip, Hou Bin felt that there was nothing wrong with it:

"Isn't this soup delicious? The meat is also delicious."

Lin Tong shook his head: "But this is not the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall of Fujian cuisine.

The chef just now couldn't tell whether the fish fillets were sour or not. "

Sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty.

In the absence of taste, only spiciness can be recognized.

Because spicy is not a taste, but a pain.

If the chef is a Sichuan cook, he will lose his sense of taste.

It can also continue to dominate the back kitchen by relying on the use of peppers.

But Fujian cuisine is different. Although Fujian cuisine is a bit heavier than Cantonese cuisine, its requirements for sweet, sour, bitter and salty are much higher than Sichuan cuisine.

Sichuan cuisine is dominated by spiciness, such as hot pot, spicy chicken, and mapo tofu.

The three major characteristics of Fujian cuisine are, one is good at seasoning with red grains, the other is good at making soup, and the third is good at using sweet and sour.

If a Hokkien chef loses his sense of taste, he basically loses his cooking skills.

And this chef chose to be tricky.

In the book of private dishes, it is said that he has been making Buddha Jumping Wall for many years, and his specialty dish is Buddha Jumping Wall.

But in the inheritance of Fujian cuisine, if you want to learn how to jump over the wall, there are still many soup dishes to learn.

With too many skills, he made Buddha jump over the wall.

Even the reason why he only cooks Cantonese cuisine Buddha jumps over the wall is that he can't master the taste of the rest of the dishes.

Only the light-tasting Cantonese-style Buddha jumping over the wall can not only scare the customer, but also allow him to gain a foothold in the back kitchen.

Why don't you cook other dishes?

Didn't you see that I'm so busy doing Buddha Jump over the Wall?

Buddha jumping over the wall is really difficult to do.

But after getting familiar with the steps, there is no need to change the process according to the taste of the guests, which is much better than being disgusted with other dishes.

Some chefs will test dishes when they are cooking.

It's not that they want to steal it, but subtle differences will change the flavor of the food.

It's not that the chef doesn't want to cook other dishes, but it's in front of him.

There is only one dish that can be cooked, the Buddha jumping over the wall.

After Lin Tong finished speaking, Ye Zhirui and Hou Bin were silent for a long time.

Eating without taste is already very uncomfortable for the rice cooker.

If the chef encounters this problem, he may even have problems with food and clothing.

Cooking is the craft that chefs rely on to make a living. Losing the sense of taste is like a ship losing its coordinates at sea.

Just wander around.

This also explains why the old man is so thin.

Out of ten cooks, nine are fat.

Lin Tong remembered that when he was in college, he had a fever and insisted on running to eat at his favorite restaurant.

As a result, I spit it out as soon as I tasted the first mouthful, and it has no taste at all.

The roommates who ate with him all tasted the dishes in his bowl, and they were still delicious.

Taste is almost equal to appetite.

Without a sense of taste, eating anything good is like chewing a candle.

The tasteless feeling is uncomfortable.

Lin Tong felt that he needed to have a good chat with this chef.

But the premise is to eat the meal well first.

Lin Tong picked up a piece of stir-fried yellow beef, which was delicious and spicy, very refreshing.

And the chef, after leaving the private room and returning to the kitchen, his clothes were soaked with sweat on his back.

This is common in the kitchen, but not for him.

He felt that this time was very dangerous, and almost exposed his taste problem in front of the manager.

A year ago, he quietly followed in the footsteps of his master and juniors to Jinling.

I wanted to see what Master was doing again, but I didn't expect Master to retire directly.

Fortunately, he can still jump over the wall like a Buddha, and finally settled in this private kitchen.

He sighed, kept moving his hands, checked the ingredients carefully, and calmed down.

After dinner, Lin Tong and Hou Bin bid farewell.

Then I walked around to the back door of the private kitchen, quietly waiting for the private kitchen to close when the chef got off work.

Being idle and bored, he opened WeChat.

I happened to see Zhuge Xiaoxiao who was posting photos in Moments.

Lin Tong opened Zhuge Xiaoxiao's circle of friends, and carefully observed Zhuge Xiaoxiao's recent developments.

And praise one by one.

Well, I have read it.

Lin Tong wiped his nosebleed and turned off his phone.

Although it's a bit mysterious to have a gossip disk in the fate palace, it's not the most mysterious thing about her.

Lin Tong remembered that he still had two skills that were useless in lottery draws, one was mysterious and the other was ground.

Draw the ground first.

Lin Tong rubbed his hands, what new skills will he have?

The huge roulette was spinning, and the skills of the full roulette were waiting for Lin Tong.

In the end, the pointer stopped in front of the four.

Thank you for your patronage.

Lin Tong was dumbfounded, that's all?

Let’s take a Xuan-level one again.

Thank you again for your patronage, delete the account and exit the game on the spot!
system:? ? ?
System: I'm not an old horse, why did you delete the account? ?

A smaller circle of Xuan-level skill roulette spins.

Lin Tong closed his eyes, covered them with his hands, and peeked through his fingers.

[Congratulations on obtaining the top level skill of the mysterious level, hypnotism]

Hey guys, finally something that works.

Lin Tong didn't hesitate, and directly added the skill points he got from running 60 orders today to hypnotism.

The moment Lin Tong succeeded in learning hypnotism, Lin Tong was in a daze.

It turns out that hypnosis can also be played like this!

Now that he has just reached the silver level of hypnotism, he still needs a method to attract attention.

At a higher level, hypnotism can even hypnotize with a snap of the fingers.

It's a pity that this top-level skill of the mysterious level is a bit expensive to upgrade, and each level requires 1000 reputation points.

And his current 10 points of spirit can only be upgraded to Platinum level.

When Lin Tong was hesitating whether to upgrade his hypnotism to platinum level, there was movement at the back door.

Out of the corner of my eye, a group of chefs came out.

There was no one he was looking for.

Another 30 minutes passed after the group left.

Even the waiters were gone.

A figure pushed open the kitchen door and came out.

He carried a large bag of garbage and dumped it into the swill bucket.

Lin Tong took a closer look and saw ingredients such as abalone, sea cucumber, lychee, pork liver, etc. pouring down.

Lin Tong muttered silently:

"Fried liver, red mushroom noodles, lychee meat"

Basically all the ingredients thrown away by this chef can be used to make Fujian cuisine.

It is not ruled out that there are other ways to make these ingredients, but Lin Tong feels that the chef is still experimenting in all likelihood.

Try how to cook better.

Just when Lin Tong was about to step out of the shadows to say hello to him.

The back door of the kitchen was opened again, and a female voice came:
"Kai, this dish is delicious today, sweet and sour."

A girl came out from the back kitchen with a packing box in her hand.

The chef named Kai nodded and said:

"As long as it is delicious, send me the recorded video later, and I will try to make it tomorrow.

If you can still make today's taste, then this dish will be a success. "

The girl nodded, put the packing box in her bag, and said goodbye to Kai.

Kai nodded, waited for the girl to go away, lit a cigarette, and prepared to go home.

Just as he exhaled smoke rings, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.

He couldn't help being startled.

Haunted at night?
The black shadow in front of him was walking towards him, and the moment he met him, a golden light hurt his eyes:
Some familiar voices sounded to him:
"When did you lose your sense of taste?"
