Hardcore Chef Dad

Uncovering the cover on the plate, there are two very delicate dishes displayed in front of everyone, one is crispy duck meat rolls, and the other is vinegar-soaked winter squash.

Among them, winter squash in vinegar and soy sauce was cooked by Feng Yifan for his family at noon, but the whole family did not think it was so amazing.

But the Yue family who didn't come at noon were very surprised to see the thin slices of winter melon.

Yue Qingsong's mother said, Wow, can this winter squash be cut so thin?

Qi Yan said: Mom, haven't you watched the knife skills shown by Brother Yifan on TV before? It can be cut so thin.

Yue Qihao hurriedly said, That's right, Uncle Feng can cut very thin.

The other dish made everyone feel even more amazing.

The crispy duck meat rolls are similar to the ones Feng Yifan made for his father-in-law before, and the duck meat is wrapped in duck skin.

But now the one Feng Yifan made is more delicate, he trims the duck rolls one by one, so it looks like each one is the same size, and he smooths the corners. In the duck skin rolls, there are some vegetables in addition to duck meat.

The key rolls look small and exquisite, just like the ones Feng Ruoruo ate before, one bite at a time.

After Feng Yifan's plate arrangement, those crispy duck meat rolls were arranged in the shape of birds on the branches.

Paired with a phoenix he carved out of carrots, it instantly becomes a scene of a hundred birds facing the phoenix.

If you look carefully, you will see the little birds made of crispy duck meat rolls. The wings and body are all smeared with sauce.

Seeing that everyone was watching, Feng Ruoruo hurriedly urged everyone, Don't watch it, everyone, hurry up and eat, this is very delicious that Dad made, hurry up and eat it.

Hearing Feng Ruoruo's words, Lu Cuiling came back to her senses and said with a smile: That's right, our baby Ruoruo is right, we have to eat quickly, don't let down the dishes that Ruoruo's father cooked for us carefully, Come, let's all try it.

Under the greeting of Feng Ruoruo's children and grandma, everyone moved their chopsticks to pick up the dishes and tasted them.

Yue Qihao had long been curious about crispy duck meat rolls, and when the elders had moved their chopsticks, he couldn't wait to pick one up.

After picking it up, the boy realized that the duck roll was really very small, only as big as one bite.

The boy put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and he could clearly smell the aroma of duck fat.

It's just a kind of oily fragrance, but there is some fragrance in it, which neutralizes the greasy taste, so it doesn't smell very pungent and greasy.

Seeing her son smelling it, Qi Yan smiled and said, What are you smelling there? Come and taste it.

After listening to his mother's words, Yue Qihao put the crispy duck meat roll picked up by the chopsticks into his mouth.

Bite your teeth lightly, and the crispy skin seems to burst instantly in your mouth.

click.

A very crisp sound sounded in the mouth.

Immediately afterwards, the puff pastry was filled with soft and glutinous meat, which was paired with the fragrance of some vegetables, exuding a strange compound taste in the mouth.

Of course, for a child like Yue Qihao, he didn't have so many delicate adjectives in his mind.

After eating it, he felt that this dish was really delicious, and after eating it, he really wanted to continue to eat a lot of things, just like what his sister said.

Yue Qihao's grandma picked up some vinegar-soaked winter squash, picked some up with chopsticks and put it in her mouth. There was a sour taste at first, but it was not the kind of sour that was sour. This sour taste is just right for the elderly, and then chew the crisp slices of winter melon,

You will find this dish really refreshing.

At the same time, after eating for a while, the old man still vaguely tasted a little bit of meat in it.

Feng Jiandong said at this time: Well, the vinegar-baked winter squash at night tastes different from the one we ate at noon.

Su Jinrong then explained to everyone: Because Yifan cooks with duck fat at night.

Then, Su Jinrong gently moved the plate with his chopsticks, revealing a little bit of soup left on the plate.

In the bottom soup on the plate, there was a little bit of meat residue, which was obviously added by Feng Yifan on purpose.

Su Jinrong smiled and said: This may be the secret. A little bit of meat residue is added to make this vinegar-soaked winter squash taste a little meaty.

Grandma Yue Qihao said: That's right, it smells like meat. I thought I had the wrong taste.

While everyone was talking, Feng Yifan presented the next dish to everyone.

This time, it is a platter specially made with duck feet and duck wings. It is also paired with some sauces and shaped like a bird with flapping wings.

Feng Yifan said with a smile: This is a platter of duck feet and wings, and I specially added duck feet and wings.

Su Jinrong said at this time: Yifan, I think your two appetizers can actually be combined.

Feng Yifan stopped and looked at his father-in-law in surprise.

The latter continued: If you roll this little duck with crispy skin, add this thinly sliced ​​winter squash in vinegar soy sauce and eat it together.

While talking, Su Jinrong started to roll up one by himself, and rolled up duck meat rolls with slices of winter melon.

As Su Jinrong put the rolled roll into his mouth, he chewed carefully with a look of enjoyment on his face.

After eating, he thought about it and said, Well, it really tastes great.

Seeing the way grandpa ate, Feng Ruoruo quickly got down from his seat and ran to grandpa's side: Grandpa, grandpa, get it for Ruoruo too, Ruoruo wants to eat like that.

Su Jinrong smiled and agreed: Okay, get some for our Ruoruo too.

Then, Su Jinrong started to roll one for his little granddaughter.

Feng Ruoruo ate it and found that it was really delicious. The outside was sour and crispy, and the inside was crispy and juicy. The little girl was very satisfied.

It's great, grandpa's way of eating is really good.

Everyone followed suit, including Feng Yifan, who also learned how his father-in-law eats.

After eating it into his mouth, Feng Yifan's eyes suddenly lit up. He seemed to have figured out something that he couldn't figure out at this moment, and finally understood what was missing from the crispy duck meat rolls before.

In fact, although Feng Yifan added some vegetables and made a sauce with vegetables.

But what the crispy duck meat rolls really lack is not the taste of vegetables, but a crunchy texture of vegetables.

Now the thin slices of winter squash in vinegar and soy sauce are rolled out, which just makes up for the lack of taste.

The sour and crunchy thin slices of winter melon, paired with the duck meat wrapped in crispy duck skin, really removes the greasy in an instant, leaving a very simple taste.

After Feng Yifan finished eating, he looked at his father-in-law and said, Dad, your idea is great.

Su Jinrong smiled and said: In the eyes of many people, our Chinese food must be heavy and greasy, but in fact Chinese food is not only greasy, we also have our own way to eliminate the greasy taste, so Yifan, you must think more, To change everyone's stereotypes.

Feng Yifan nodded: Yes, Dad, I understand.

What the father-in-law said is also Feng Yifan's own direction, and he has been working hard in that direction.

To change everyone's inherent understanding of Chinese food, to make more high-end Chinese food.

Let Chinese food go abroad and truly face the world.

Su Jinrong waited for his son-in-law to stand there thinking for a while, then smiled and said, Okay, is it time for the next dishes? We are all waiting.

Feng Yifan came back to his senses and nodded with a smile: Well, the next dish will come soon.

Next, Feng Yifan made a Stuffed Bazhen with various duck offal, a cashew nut duck recipe with duck breast, and fried diced pork with diced duck legs.

It can be said that such a table of all-duck banquet really opened everyone's eyes.

Yue Qingsong's mother tasted one dish after another, and couldn't help sighing: Yifan is really amazing, one duck can cook so many dishes, and each dish is so delicious, this meal is really satisfying .”

Qi Yan also said: It's really powerful. Every dish doesn't seem to have that strong taste, but it tastes great.

Hearing everyone's praise, Feng Yifan responded with a smile: Thank you for your praise, as long as everyone likes it, it shows that my research and development this time is still a success.

Su Jinrong nodded and said: Well, your research and development this time is indeed very successful. You made good use of Su Zao Tang, and the duck made from Su Zao Tang is completely presented in other ways. The taste is really good, and it looks very good. You should also have a direction for the recipe of making soup from Su.

Feng Yifan nodded: Well, I have a direction, but I still need to try again and again.

Feng Ruoruo immediately couldn't help but said, Father, come on, Ruoruo supports you.

Feng Yifan responded to his daughter with a smile: Okay, thank you Ruoruo.

Qi Yan asked a little strangely: Brother Yifan, I think your dishes are already cooked very well. Why do you seem to be not very confident in yourself when you talk to Uncle Rong?

Faced with this question, Feng Yifan fell into deep thought.

In fact, if it is true, in his previous life, he had indeed become the world's top culinary master, and was even hailed as the God of Chef by the media.

But to be honest, Feng Yifan in his previous life was not really immersed in Chinese dishes.

Some of the innovative dishes he made are mainly Western-style, which belong to Western-style meals with Chinese elements.

So now that Feng Yifan has obtained the ancestral formula from his father-in-law's family, his thoughts have changed somewhat.

Continuing on the path of the previous life would obviously be a very easy shortcut, but that would be less challenging for the individual.

So now, Feng Yifan's idea is to challenge traditional Chinese cuisine and incorporate Western cooking.

In other words, it is necessary to add Western elements to Chinese food instead of adding Chinese elements to Western food.

He wants to better develop and promote Chinese cuisine by integrating Western style into Chinese cuisine.

It still follows the traditional Chinese cuisine and cooking, incorporates Western cooking techniques, and adds some Western seasoning elements to complete an innovative approach. And it is possible to carry forward Chinese cuisine and let the world see the beauty of the essence of Chinese cuisine.

Thinking about this, Feng Yifan replied to Qi Yan, I am not unconfident, but more rigorous. Whether each dish can really be used for business requires many trials.

Hearing this, Yue Qihao couldn't help asking: Uncle Feng, isn't it possible that as long as the food is delicious, it can be sold to others?

Feng Yifan shook his head: No, a menu is purely eaten by the family. It may not require such high requirements, it only needs to be delicious, but if you want to sell it to diners, because diners consume this dish, then you should strive for excellence and be able to eat it. Let diners get a kind of pleasure and satisfaction through the delicacy of this dish.”

Hearing this, Yue Qihao said in surprise, Wow, that seems to be very difficult.

Grandma said to him at this time: Now you understand? No matter what you do, it is not easy to succeed. If you want to become a chef like Uncle Feng like you, you have to work harder than others. Can ultimately achieve success beyond others.”

Yue Qihao thought for a while and said: I know grandma, just like me studying, I have to work harder than others.

Su Ruoxi laughed after hearing this: It seems that Haohao is a child who loves to study.

The boy's grandma was naturally not stingy, and praised: Well, in the final exam last semester, he got the second place in the class.

Yue Qihao immediately said: Grandma, don't talk about it the second time.

Su Ruoxi hurriedly said: The second is already very good. Our family Ruoruo didn't get the second place in the kindergarten in this semester. Ruoruo, you have to learn from your brother.

Feng Ruoruo immediately got into her mother's arms when she heard this: Mom, don't tell me, if Ruoruo didn't get enough little red flowers, tell me again, Ruoruo is unhappy.

Yue Qihao said with an unconvinced face: Auntie, the second shows that I am not good enough.

Lu Cuiling said with a smile: Okay, in fact, the second place is already very good, and it is also very good to be able to maintain the second place.

The grandparents present basically thought that the second place was very good, and encouraged Yue Qihao to continue to maintain it, and felt that it was great to be able to maintain the second place.

After the grandparents finished talking, Feng Yifan said: Well, I think the second is really not enough, Haohao, you should continue to work hard and strive to get the first place next time. Uncle doesn't want you to stay in the second place. I hope you If you can strive for the first place, work hard.”

Originally, hearing what his grandparents said, Yue Qihao felt that the second place was really good.

But after listening to Feng Yifan's words now, it can be regarded as an encouragement to him, and re-firmed Yue Qihao's idea of ​​working hard to be the first.

Feng Yifan went on to say: Haohao, you have to remember that the one that will be mentioned and remembered by everyone must be the first. The second may not be bad, but it is far from being the best.

Everyone was a little surprised, they didn't expect Feng Yifan to say such a thing to the child.

And he then said to his daughter: Ruo Ruo must also remember that no matter what you do, you must work 100% hard, and you must strive to be the first, and you cannot be satisfied just because you are second.

Feng Ruoruo didn't understand her father's words very well, but the little girl still knew that she had to work hard to be number one, so she smiled and nodded in agreement: Okay, Ruoruo will definitely be number one too.

Yue Qihao followed up and said, Good Uncle Feng, I will definitely try my best to be the first in the exam next time.

The two children readily agreed, and Feng Yifan smiled and said, Okay, then reward each of us two children with a piece of duck meat.

As he spoke, he used serving chopsticks to give each of the children a piece of cashew nut duck recipe.

Under the persimmon tree in the Feng family's small courtyard, the dinner was still enjoyable, and under the guidance of Feng Yifan, a seed of hard work was planted in the hearts of the two children invisibly.
