Hardcore Chef Dad

Chapter 207 Apprentice cooking for the first time (second update)

After seeing off Yang Xiaoxi and Zhang Zhuangzhuang, Feng Yifan glanced at his watch, it was almost half past five.

However, the restaurant has not yet started serving customers.

So Feng Yifan said to everyone who stayed behind: Let's eat first.

Feng Ruoruo heard what her father said, looked at the restaurant and said, Dad, there are no customers, let's wait a while, Feifei and I will play for a while.

Feng Yifan squatted down and smiled and said to his daughter: That's right, it's because there are no customers in the restaurant, so we have to eat first. After dinner, you can still play with Feifei.

Lu Cuiling also agreed to eat first. Although the children ate some snacks, they played for a while when Feng Yifan went in to cook.

Eating now, the time is just right, and the restaurant has not yet started serving customers, so there will not be much impact.

Lu Cuiling said to her little granddaughter: Let's eat first, so that when there will be guests, we won't cause trouble for Dad, and let Dad concentrate on cooking for the guests, right?

Feng Ruoruo still hesitated, Chen Yaofei said, Ruoruo, let's eat first.

After a pause, Chen Yaofei asked again: Ruoruo, you smell the rice that Xixi and her father took away just now, don't you think it smells good, don't you feel hungry?

Feng Ruoruo thought for a while, she seemed to be really hungry, and said to her father, Dad, let's eat first.

Feng Yifan smiled and nodded: Okay, you and Feifei go sit down with your grandparents, Dad will cook dinner for you, what do Ruoruo and Feifei want to eat?

The two little girls almost said in unison: Be the same as Xixi.

Grandpa Chen Yaofei laughed when she heard the words: You three little girls are almost becoming one person, and you even have to eat the same thing.

Feng Ruoruo smiled and said to Grandpa Chen: Because my father made it for Xixi, it must be delicious.

Feng Yifan listened to his daughter and Chen Yaofei's request, and agreed: Okay, I'll make it for you, the same as Xixi's. Hurry up and sit down with your grandparents.

Feng Yifan turned and walked towards the back kitchen, Feng Ruoruo and Chen Yaofei called their grandparents to sit down. Not forgetting the two little girls, they pushed Feng Ruoruo's grandfather over together.

Su Jinrong smiled happily and thanked: Thank you,

Two little babies.

Feng Yifan went back to the back kitchen and saw that his apprentice had already cleaned the back kitchen, standing there digesting the recipe of fried shrimp balls just now.

Lin Ruifeng was indeed very serious, while bowing his head to recall what he had done, he was still muttering something.

Seeing this, Feng Yifan walked over to his apprentice and said, It seems that you remember it well? If that's the case, how about you make a plate of sweet and sour shrimp balls?

Lin Ruifeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and then quickly waved his hands: Master, I, I can't do it, can I?

Feng Yifan encouraged: Nothing will work. You have been in the restaurant for a long time, and you haven't cooked a dish officially. Today's fried shrimp ball is relatively simple. Come and try it.

Lin Ruifeng listened to Master's encouragement, and slowly ignited his fighting spirit in his heart. These days, he has always been a little eager to try, but he didn't dare to try.

Today, I got an opportunity, and I watched Master cook it before, it is really not a difficult dish. Lin Ruifeng nodded and agreed: Okay, Master, I will definitely do it seriously.

In fact, at this moment, Lin Ruifeng had a thought in his mind: If he didn't do well, he could eat it by himself anyway, as a way of accumulating experience.

Feng Yifan also saw his apprentice's thoughts, and added: You have to cook well, the dish you made today is for Ruoruo and Feifei, you can't make it casually.

These words really startled Lin Ruifeng. In an instant, he started to feel guilty: Master, make it for Ruoruo and Feifei, I, I'm afraid I can't do it?

Feng Yifan didn't comfort or encourage his apprentice this time, his expression became serious.

Lin Ruifeng, maybe Master was too lenient with you before. In fact, Master hates people saying 'I can't do it' the most, especially before you have tried and worked hard.

Lin Ruifeng was taken aback by Feng Yifan's serious expression at this moment and his very blunt tone.

Before the apprentice bowed his head to apologize, he was interrupted by Feng Yifan: Do you want to say 'sorry' to me again? I also hate this sentence very much, I don't need you to say sorry to me like this.

I hope you can show energy and courage, just like what your teacher said, you have to have the courage to try.

If you haven't done it yet, you will only think that you can't do it, and then keep apologizing to others, then you will never achieve anything.

Not giving the apprentice a chance to speak at all, Feng Yifan reached for the kitchen knife and said, Do it, I want to see your actions and your efforts.

Seeing the master holding the blade and handing the handle to his face, Lin Ruifeng didn't hesitate or talk nonsense, and reached out to take the knife from the master.

Holding the knife, Lin Ruifeng began to follow the procedure written down before, starting with peeling the shrimps, step by step carefully.

Peeling the shrimp is still very simple, because the back of the shrimp has been cut, and you only need to peel it off directly.

After peeling off the shrimps one by one, I cleaned them first according to the master's method, then wiped off the water from the cleaning, and started to open the backs of the shrimps one by one.

Press and hold the shrimp on the chopping board, spread the shrimp slightly with two fingers, and gently cut the back of the shrimp with a spatula from the midline of the shrimp back. Because I am not skilled, this step is very slow.

Lin Ruifeng kept his head down and worked hard, and he didn't even look up at the master again, and didn't ask the master to confirm whether he was doing well.

He completely enters his own state, and does it in the way he remembers and thinks is right.

Feng Yifan stood aside, watching the apprentice step by step, without any expression on his face, he just carefully observed every step of the apprentice.

To Feng Yifan's relief, the apprentice really remembered the process, and every step was done well.

As for some small flaws, Feng Yifan didn't point out, but kept quiet and asked the apprentice to go through the whole process.

Finally, according to his memory, Lin Ruifeng watched the steps of master's cooking, step by step, finished such a plate of fried shrimp balls that master had cooked once.

Finally put it on the plate, looking at the shrimp balls full of Q bombs, and the sweet and fragrant sauce.

Lin Ruifeng really had a little sense of accomplishment in his heart. This is the first dish I have completed by myself for the first time after studying in the back kitchen for more than a week with my master.

Finally finished, Lin Ruifeng also raised his head to look at Master.

Feng Yifan asked: What? Are you done now?

Lin Ruifeng was puzzled when he heard the words?

Feng Yifan said seriously: Did you make this for me? Who are you serving this dish to? Don't you need to adjust the arrangement in the end and then serve it to others?

After being reminded by the master, Lin Ruifeng suddenly came to his senses, and quickly adjusted the plate arrangement with chopsticks.

In the end, imitating the master, wipe off the excess sauce on the edge of the plate with a clean rag, and after confirming that it is finished, quickly take the dish out to serve.

Seeing the apprentice go to serve the dishes, Feng Yifan didn't follow, but quickly started preparing other dishes in the back kitchen. After all, it wasn't just the two little girls who were eating, there were also Chen Yaofei's grandparents, Feng Ruoruo's grandpa, grandma, and mother.

One dish is definitely not enough, Feng Yifan not only has to cook the four dishes for Yang Xiaoxi and Zhang Zhuangzhuang according to his daughter's request, but also prepare some other dishes.

Lin Ruifeng went out with the dishes and came to Feng Ruoruo's table. When he was about to put down the dishes, he hesitated a little.

After a brief hesitation, Lin Ruifeng took a deep breath, summoned up the courage to put down the dish and said, I made this dish according to Master's instruction. Please taste it.

Looking at the dishes put down and hearing what Lin Ruifeng said, everyone present was a little surprised.

Su Jinrong, on the other hand, looked at Lin Ruifeng and the dish on the table after a brief moment of stupor, with a smile on his face.

Feng Ruoruo came back to her senses, and asked in surprise, Ah, Uncle Xiaolin, did you make this?

Chen Yaofei praised: Uncle Xiaolin's dishes are so beautiful.

Feng Ruoruo also agreed: Yes, she looks very beautiful, just a little worse than my father.

Su Ruoxi heard her daughter's words, came over and smiled and said to her daughter: Ruoruo, it's wrong for you to deliberately praise Dad like this. I think Uncle Xiaolin's dish today looks no worse than Dad's.

Feng Ruoruo pouted, raised her head and looked at her mother standing beside her: No, Dad did well.

In the little girl's mind, her father is the best, and no one is better than her father.

Lu Cuiling smiled and said to her little granddaughter: Let's taste it, eat and see if we can catch up with Dad's cooking, okay?

In the end, Feng Ruoruo wanted to say: Grandma, Dad has never cooked this dish.

What the little girl said made everyone unable to argue. Because what Feng Ruoruo said was right, her father had never cooked this dish for her, so she didn't know whether it was delicious or not.

Su Ruoxi walked to her daughter and said, Then let's try Uncle Xiaolin's, and give Uncle Xiaolin some encouragement.

After hearing what her mother said, Su Ruoxi nodded and agreed: Okay, let's try it.

Next, everyone on the table picked up their chopsticks, picked up a shrimp ball with each chopstick, slowly put it into their mouths, and began to taste Lin Ruifeng's first dish.

Seeing everyone eating, Lin Ruifeng was really nervous standing beside him, feeling his heart beating wildly.

Although Lin Ruifeng tried hard to calm himself down, he still couldn't bear the nervousness, causing his body to tremble uncontrollably even standing there.

Just when he was nervous, the back kitchen door was pushed open, and Feng Yifan came out with two dishes in his hands and said, How is it? My apprentice's fried shrimp balls tonight, does it suit the taste of our two little ones? ?”

Hearing Master's words made Lin Ruifeng even more nervous, and his legs felt a little weak.

But the next moment, Lin Ruifeng heard Feng Ruoruo turning his head and shouting to his father: Dad, the dishes made by Uncle Xiao Lin are also delicious.

The words It's also delicious exploded in Lin Ruifeng's heart like a bomb, and a kind of ecstasy surged from his heart, drowning him instantly.

This is different from the pot stickers in the morning. The master and mother help most of the pot stickers from kneading noodles, making stuffing, and wrapping. Therefore, the good sale of pot stickers in the morning and the praise from many people did not bring Lin Ruifeng a great joy.

At this moment, such a dish was completely prepared by Lin Ruifeng himself, and the master didn't give any instructions or intervene. It was really a dish made by himself.

Now that Feng Ruoruo praised him as delicious, Lin Ruifeng fell into a kind of ecstasy.

I succeeded, and finally it was a success.

This may be the first time since Lin Ruifeng grew up that he has accomplished something with his own efforts and received affirmation.

Then, Lin Ruifeng heard Chen Yaofei also say: Well, it's delicious.

Chen Yaofei's grandparents also said separately.

The taste is really good.

The shrimps are delicious, and they are very elastic, smooth and tender, really delicious.

Lu Cuiling turned her head and smiled at Sergeant's son, It seems that you really want to teach your disciples this time, and starve yourself to death.

Putting down the two dishes on his hands, Feng Yifan responded with a smile: It doesn't matter, if the apprentice can really be successful, it should be what every master hopes for.

After hearing these compliments, Lin Ruifeng slowly recovered from the state of ecstasy, and after hearing what Master said, he completely calmed down.

Auntie, I can't do it yet. This dish is actually relatively simple, and when Master made it in the back kitchen, he explained it to me very carefully, so I just copied it according to Master's process.

When Feng Ruoruo heard Uncle Xiaolin's words, he turned around and threw himself into the arms of his father who had put down Cai.

Father, if you have never eaten the food you cook, will your food taste better than Uncle Xiaolin's?

Feng Yifan touched his daughter's small face with a smile, gently squeezed his mumbling mouth, and puffed up his cheeks: No, Uncle Xiao Lin really did a good job this time, almost exactly like Dad.

Feng Ruoruo still couldn't believe it: Really?

Feng Yifan nodded and said, Really, Dad promises.

Feng Ruoruo was finally satisfied: Okay then, Dad said, Uncle Xiaolin is really good, he can cook daddy's dishes.

Lin Ruifeng calmed down at this moment, and when he heard the little girl's praise, he waved his hands and said, No, actually, Uncle Xiao Lin copied your father's dishes, and his cooking is definitely not as good as your father's.

Su Jinrong, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up after hearing this.

Ruifeng, Gubu Shrimp Balls, indeed, you did a good job. It's not easy to be able to master it in such a short time and complete it completely.

After complimenting it, Su Jinrong said again: Flaws, also, the shrimp balls were fried too much, the carrots were not cooked, and you didn't put pepper.

When Su Jinrong pointed out the problems one by one, Lin Ruifeng suddenly remembered them. He did follow the master's procedure, but he still forgot some things. The carrots were not boiled, and the most important thing was that he forgot to put pepper.

Lin Ruifeng lowered his head silently, feeling a little lost at this moment.

Feng Yifan patted his apprentice on the shoulder and said, Don't say I'm sorry, let alone give up like this. You have to understand that I pointed this out to you in the hope that you can continue to work hard and do better.

Feng Ruoruo and Chen Yaofei came to Uncle Xiao Lin together, and the two little girls shouted together: Uncle Xiao Lin, come on.

Everyone also cheered for Lin Ruifeng.

Hearing these encouragements, Lin Ruifeng regained his composure. He raised his head and held back his tears to look at Master. He nodded heavily and said, Master, I will definitely work harder.
