Almighty substitute teacher

Chapter 72 Cooking Has a Soul

Yang Zhengdong picked up the chopsticks with a smile, pointed to the dishes on the table and said.

Then he took a bite of the roasted meat first, and the taste was much better than what he remembered. It seemed that this master-level culinary bonus was really not just for fun.

In addition to the factors of the vegetables he grows, cooking skills are still the key to making delicious meals.

The same fish-flavored pork shreds, the same ingredients, and different chefs will definitely taste different.

Otherwise, how could there be divisions such as super chefs, first-class chefs, etc., and hotels will also have divisions of grades, doesn't it explain the reason?
The ingredients of this dish of roasted meat have nothing to do with his dishes at all. The test is entirely on the level of cooking skills. Facts have proved that his cooking skills are really good. The skills produced by the spicy chicken system are not that kind tuned knockoffs.

Wang Chengzhi saw Yang Zhengdong moving his chopsticks, and he and his lover looked at each other, and they both picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.

Putting the chopsticks into his mouth, Wang Chengzhi almost cried, not because of anything else, but because it was so delicious!
She never thought that even though she has worked in restaurants for more than ten years, she didn't even know how to make such a delicious dish.

Suddenly I remembered what the master chef said when I was stealing a teacher to learn art: "Culinary art has a soul, and the dishes are also emotional. A good dish can make a sad person get out of sadness, Let the confused people set the direction, and can revive the dead heart. A chef who can cook this kind of dish can be said to be a qualified chef! Others are cooks, cooks who make a living."

At that time, she didn't understand it at all, even though she had been cooking all these years, she didn't understand it. She felt that cooking is cooking. She doesn't believe it.

But today she knew that the dishes made by Yang Zhengdong had souls. When they tasted them, they conquered the taste buds in an instant, and at the same time, they could make people forget those troublesome things.

Originally, Wang Chengzhi, who was full of anger because of the overcrowding of the restaurant, was full of anger and worry about the future.But after eating Yang Zhengdong's dishes, I found that my whole body was much more relaxed, and I was full of hope for the future.

She herself felt a little mysterious, but this feeling was so real.

It turns out that food can really heal, as the old master said, it can make people experience all kinds of life, let go of burdens, regain direction, and welcome new life.

"Is the taste okay?"

After Yang Zhengdong saw Wang Chengzhi took a bite, he lost his mind and didn't know what he was thinking, so he greeted him and asked.

"It's delicious! It's really delicious! I've never eaten such a delicious dish!"

Wang Chengzhi didn't answer, but his lover swallowed the food in his mouth vigorously, and answered with a simple and honest smile.

"Uncle, if it tastes good, eat more!"

After Yang Zhengdong finished speaking, he was also amused, what kind of advertising slogan is "you can eat more if it tastes good"?Biscuits from Dali Garden?
A smile appeared on Wang Chengzhi's chubby face. She wanted to say something, but she held back her words, and then she also started to eat with chopsticks.

For one meal, Yang Zhengdong didn't eat much in the end. He still paid more attention to the control of his dinner diet, and he also complied with the requirements of "Bajiquan", and even more so, the requirements for his personal image.

But it wasn't wasted. Four plates of adequate dishes and a basket of steamed buns were enough for Wang Chengzhi and his wife to eat.

In the end, the dishes and soups on the plates were all eaten, and they were even more clean and translucent than the brushed ones. Yang Zhengdong looked at the honest uncle, who kept wiping the bottom of the plates with steamed buns, and was also dumbfounded.

"How is it? Aunt Chengzhi, is the food okay?"

Seeing the two put down their chopsticks, Yang Zhengdong poured them another glass of water and asked with a smile.

"Zhengdong, my aunt wants to ask you something, can you agree?"

Wang Chengzhi had an embarrassed look on his face, like a shy little girl.

"Hey, Aunt Cheng Zhi, don't ask for it, we are all in the same village, if you have anything to ask, you can tell me, if I can help, can I help? Besides, I still have something I want to ask Aunt Cheng Zhi for!"

Yang Zhengdong was also taken aback for a moment, and quickly said with a smile.

"I'll do whatever you want! Aunt... Aunt wants to ask you to be a teacher and learn how to cook. Can you accept me?"

Wang Chengzhi gritted his teeth and said it, his eyes were full of worry, as if he was afraid that Yang Zhengdong would reject her.

"Huh? Auntie, why are you talking about apprenticeship? It's just cooking, so there's no need for apprenticeship. Besides, I've tried your cooking before, so it's very good."

Yang Zhengdong looked at Wang Chengzhi suspiciously, and said with a smile.

"Zhengdong, I know the rules of the cooking industry. If you don't learn from a teacher, you won't be able to learn unique skills. Although my aunt is old, she can carry a frying spoon weighing dozens of catties without any problem, and I can eat any kind of bitterness. If you want If you don’t dislike him, how about accepting my apprentice?”

Wang Chengzhi said excitedly, his hands were tightly squeezed together, it could be seen that he was very excited.

"Aunt Cheng Zhi, take a sip of water and talk slowly, I am not a chef, I don't understand any rules, and I don't think there are any unique tricks in it. It's easy to say if you want to learn these, so you learn to cook. Where did you learn it?"

Yang Zhengdong looked at the excited Wang Chengzhi, and quickly handed him a glass of water. He thought he was just learning how to cook, so how could he be so excited.

"Zhengdong, you don't know, I haven't learned any cooking skills at all..."

Holding the water glass, Wang Chengzhi began to recall.

When she was fifteen or sixteen years old, she dropped out of school because her family's financial conditions were not good. At that time, the reform and opening up had just started, and it was popular among young people to go to the south to work.

So she went to Yuzhou with her bedroll and people on her back. There were few opportunities in Yuzhou, and then she moved to Guangdong Province, where she entered a restaurant.

All the partners together have become waiters. The restaurant manager thought she was stupid, so he arranged for her to wash the dishes. She has been doing this for three years.

Later, there was a lack of a vegetable washer in the kitchen. Because of his great strength, strong body, and quick work, Wang Chengzhi was transferred to be responsible for washing vegetables.

Only then did she have the opportunity to get acquainted with the chef industry, but she is only a vegetable washer, and has not had the opportunity to learn any cooking skills.

Moreover, Guangdong Province has very strict rules for chefs. Basically, they are inherited from masters and apprentices. In a restaurant, starting from the master chef, those who can touch the pot all the way down are his disciples and grandchildren.

After working for a while, Wang Chengzhi developed that she fell in love with cooking. Wearing a white chef's uniform and a chef's hat, she waved a frying spoon and turned ingredients into exquisite dishes. She felt like a fairy.

Since then, she has been washing vegetables in the kitchen, secretly watching the chef cook, and then went to the vegetable market to pick up unwanted vegetables after get off work, and went back to practice cooking.

Because she got off work late, she usually practiced after ten o'clock in the evening, and people came to her door many times, and she was forced to move many times.

In the end, with the help of a fellow villager, I rented a wooden house in the suburbs with no neighbors around, so I was considered stable.

After working day and night and accumulating, she feels that her cooking is already very good, but since she doesn't have a master, she doesn't know what level she can reach.

Until one time, when Wang Chengzhi was washing vegetables, the waiter in the front hall brought back a dish and told the chef that the guest wanted to redo the dish.

This is very common in restaurants, and we often encounter picky customers who return the dishes or ask for redoing.

But it was a coincidence that the master chef was not there that day, and the chef of this dish was his grandson, so he made another dish according to the rules and asked the waiter to deliver it.

Unexpectedly, in less than 1 minute, this dish was brought back again, and the manager appeared in the kitchen in person to inform the customer that he was extremely dissatisfied.

Seeing this situation, the disciple's master naturally wanted to do it himself, but he didn't expect to be returned by the customer again.

When the manager came over this time, his face was full of anger, and he lashed out, saying that this customer is extremely important, and it is related to the rating of the hotel. If he offends the hotel, it will be over.

Then I asked the master chef to be called over quickly, but after contacting the master chef, the master chef couldn't come back in time when he was out of town, and the chef was panicked for a while.

Wang Chengzhi sneaked a bite of the returned dishes, and couldn't help frowning. He saw the manager come over again and again, each time being more severe, and the chef in the back kitchen had nothing to do.

He murmured in a low voice that there was something wrong with the soy sauce used in this dish, but it was very quiet at the time, and his words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The chef grabbed the soy sauce in a hurry, smelled it again and again, and a group of people got together to discuss it again, and hurriedly sent someone to buy a new soy sauce nearby, and re-fried the vegetables and sent it up, but this time it was not returned.

The final reason was naturally found out. The batch of soy sauce used was counterfeit soy sauce purchased in order to save money, which almost caused a major incident that endangered the survival of the restaurant.

Since then, Wang Chengzhi has been remembered by the chefs. When the master chef came back, he learned about this and called her over to ask about the situation.

When Wang Chengzhi asked to be a teacher, the master chef refused because he didn't teach the female cook, but Wang Chengzhi got a privilege, that is, he can listen in the kitchen, which can be regarded as taking special care of her.

It was also during that time that Wang Chengzhi's cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds, and he learned a lot about cooking.

But because I didn't pass it on personally, I couldn't learn the core skills, but I still learned some popular dishes well.

Even the master chef praised her for her talent in cooking.But it's a pity that she is a daughter, there is no way to take her into the family, and she can't let her start cooking for the guests, which makes the master feel regretful.

Those two years were her happiest days. She washed vegetables in the kitchen and listened to them every day, and practiced cooking after returning home at night. Although it was bitter, it was extremely fulfilling.

But things in the world are always full of twists and turns, ups and downs, and cannot always go smoothly.

A sudden incident interrupted her cooking career, and she still has regrets in her heart until now.
