Food starts with noodles

…………

The group did not cause a sensation because of Yu Keke's publicity of her "Lala" identity. Instead, they became excited because they suddenly realized that Xu Zhuo was single.

Several people have even started chatting with Xu Zhuo in private, asking him whether the matter is true or not.

"..." Xu Zhuo.

MMP, what's the matter?

Yu Keke also panicked, and quickly explained that it was a joke.

After finally licking the male god's hand, she would not give it up.

But those people in the group didn't listen at all.

As a last resort, she resorted to her all-powerful tactic—sending password red envelopes.

"Yu Ke is Xu Zhuo's favorite woman!"

As soon as this password came out, the messy chat group suddenly became much more tidy.

Everyone started to receive red envelopes one after another.

But after receiving the red envelope, they will reply with a "bah".

The topic in the group returned to molecular cuisine again.

Someone even asked Xu Zhuo if he knew how to cook molecular cuisine.

For these, Xu Zhuo was really helpless.

Because kitchen utensils for molecular cooking are no different from laboratory supplies.

Test tubes, syringes, beakers, crucibles and other equipment used in chemical laboratories can be found in the kitchen of molecular cuisine.

On the contrary, those kitchen utensils that are usually used in the kitchen are rarely seen.

"Boss Xu, can you do this well?"

The people in the group were a little surprised.

In their view, Xu Zhuo can cook any dish.

How come molecular gastronomy fails?

"Molecular cuisine is completely different from traditional cooking, and the concept and method of making it are very different, so I really can't do this stuff well."

Xu Zhuo didn't put on a show, and admitted very straightforwardly that he didn't know how to cook molecular cuisine.

After finishing speaking, he was still praying in his heart that the dog system must not jump out to show his presence right now.

however……

"Ding! There is a new random mission, please click on the mission panel for details."

Well, it's still here!

Xu Zhuo was really speechless.

Now Chinese food is just learning the surface.

I have never touched Western food.

Why did the dog system reach out to molecular cuisine again?

As a system, is it really good to be so ambitious?

He lazily entered the system and began to check the task that was 100% related to molecular cooking.

Random task: make molecular cuisine.

Task details: Ask the host to make sweet potatoes with molecular cuisine within one day, giving sweet potatoes a new image and eating method.

Task rewards and punishments: If the task is successful, the host will have the opportunity to get to know Guo Shuying, a famous Anhui cuisine; if the task fails, there will be no punishment.

Task time limit: one day.

Task prompt: None.

After Xu Zhuo finished reading it, he was a little moved by this task.

I don't think it's fun to make sweet potatoes with molecular cuisine.

It was mainly because of this opportunity to get to know Guo Shuying, a master of Anhui cuisine, that he was a little moved.

He doesn't know much about Anhui cuisine, the most low-key of the eight major cuisines.

Not only boss Xu is like this, everyone seems to be like this. When it comes to Anhui cuisine, it seems that apart from a stinky mandarin fish, there is no other dish that can be thought of.

Yu Peiyong also said before that there is a chef of Anhui cuisine in the kitchen of the state banquet, but he is not very familiar with it, and he can't even remember the name.

Even famous chefs are like this, which shows the low-keyness of Anhui cuisine.

However, Xu Zhuo knew Guo Shuying's name, because when "A Bite of the Tongue" was popular, Xu Zhuo became interested in stinky mandarin fish, so he went to Anhui on a whim.

At Wangyue Tower in Anhui, Xu Zhuo ate the most authentic stinky mandarin fish.

By the way, I also learned that Guo Shuying, the owner of Wangyuelou, is a master of Anhui cuisine, and he is responsible for the selection of the Anhui cuisine competition held in Jixi County every year.

It's just that Xu Zhuo was not interested in Anhui cuisine at that time, so he didn't have a deep understanding of it.

Seeing this task now, Xu Zhuo always feels like going back in time.

But he was very surprised, why did molecular cuisine get in touch with Guo Shuying?

Chapter 666 Sweet Potato Flavored Oranges

After eating, Xu Zhuo went to the kitchen to check, the chicken soup had to be boiled for a while.

At this moment, the foreigner chef was staring at a washed sweet potato in a daze. When he saw Xu Zhuo coming in, he was so excited that he pulled Xu Zhuo, and even said and gestured, as if he wanted to make sweet potatoes with Xu Zhuo.

Westerners are better at making potatoes than sweet potatoes.

All kinds of potatoes are classic.

But for sweet potatoes, it seems to be a baked sweet potato with cheese.

Although this dish is delicious, it will get tired if you eat too much.

Moreover, using the method of molecular materials to make sweet potatoes, if it is just made like this, it will be a bit overwhelming.

Xu Zhuo looked at the sweet potatoes on the table and began to think about how to make them.

Worried about the language barrier, Xu Zhuo called Zhou Wen in and asked her to act as an interpreter.

Then, Xu Zhuo started a discussion with the chef about making sweet potatoes.

However, the concept of molecular cuisine is very different from the concept of Chinese food. The two talked for a long time, but they didn't get to each other's point.

Xu Zhuo is a man of action.

Seeing that this method does not work, it is necessary to make it by hand.

Xu Zhuo used up all the sweet potatoes in the utility room yesterday, but Zhao Guangming actually bought a box of sweet potatoes today.

Although this stuff has the same taste as sweet potatoes, the sweet potatoes are in a semi-liquid state after steaming, which has a higher water content than ordinary sweet potatoes and a sweeter taste.

After thinking about it, he peeled the sweet potatoes and steamed them in the pot.

During this period, the foreign chef has been watching Xu Zhuo's operation, probably trying to find some inspiration from the way of cooking sweet potatoes in Chinese food.

After the sweet potatoes were steamed, Xu Zhuo used a spoon to crush the sweet potatoes into a puree.

Sweet potatoes are stickier because of their higher sugar content.

But the yellow-yellow color looks pretty good, it makes people very appetizing, and with the sweet potato fragrance constantly wafting out, it feels pretty good.

While Xu Zhuo was doing it, the chef stopped talking and just stared at Xu Zhuo's operation.

After all the sweet potatoes were mashed into a puree with a spoon, Xu Zhuo grabbed a handful of sweet potato starch and put it in, and sprinkled some sugar in it, then washed his hands, and started to stir and mash.

After the starch and sweet potato mash were integrated, Xu Zhuo boiled water in the pot, and then turned on a low heat to keep the water in the pot slightly boiling.

Then he dug out some sweet potato mash, kneaded it into a ball, and carefully threw it into the pot.

This is the practice of sweet potato boiled meatballs in Chinese food.

Because this kind of meatball is boiled with water, it tastes soft and glutinous, and the sweetness is moderate, which is more suitable for the elderly and children.

In addition, the sweet potato balls made in this way are translucent and have a relatively high appearance.

Moreover, the translucent sweet potato balls are served in a bowl, which looks better in appearance.

Xu Zhuo put half of it into the pot, and was just about to heat up the oil and fry some more, when the chef who had been watching beside him suddenly got excited, he went to work without knowing what he said, which surprised Xu Zhuo a little.

He made sweet potatoes into balls, just because after eating two meals of molecular cuisine, he found that many dishes were in the shape of balls, so he wanted to use this method to fish in troubled waters.

Of course, it would be even better if the chef had the inspiration to make mashed sweet potatoes after reading these, but Xu Zhuo's main purpose is to fool the system.

Now it seems that it really gave the chef some inspiration.

"What is he busy with? I can't understand a word of what he's talking about."

The chef's speech was a bit fast just now, and Zhou Wen didn't quite understand: "He seems to say that the yellow balls can be made into oranges, but it still needs to be tested, let you wait for a while."

Then wait.

It would be great if you could turn sweet potatoes into oranges.

only……

No matter how he looked at the meatballs in the pot, they had nothing to do with oranges.

I don't know what kind of aesthetic this chef is.

Soon, the sweet potato balls in the pot were cooked.

The chef was also busy with the preparations. He fished out the sweet potato balls in the pot to control the water.

After the temperature of the sweet potato balls dropped, the color became darker, and the overall appearance was translucent light orange.

The chef carefully rolled it on a tray with tongs, and the meatballs were immediately covered with a layer of white net-like substance.

This layer of white net is thick and thin, and when paired with sweet potato balls, the feeling of oranges will come out immediately.

Next, the chef used tweezers to pick up some thin white strips and carefully stuck them on the meatballs, and the oranges became petals.

"Hey, it really looks alike."

Xu Zhuo didn't expect the chef's craftsmanship to be so good. If he didn't look carefully at the moment, he would really regard it as a peeled orange.

However, this is not over.

The chef flattened the fake orange a little bit, and added some white substance to both ends.

Like sugar or something.

Now, it became a peeled orange.

Xu Zhuo casually took an orange from the fruit basket next to it, peeled it off, and put it together with the fake orange, it was hard to tell the real from the fake...

Awesome!

Next, it's time for the chef to perform.

He not only made oranges, but also made orange peels with other ingredients.

An hour later, the plate of boiled sweet potato balls just turned into a plate of oranges.

Some oranges have been peeled, some have been peeled in half, and some are whole oranges.

Even for believability, the chef also sprayed a little orange juice on the oranges with a small sprayer, which added to the believability.

After it was done, Xu Zhuo looked at the random task and it showed that it had been completed.

But what about rewards?

Didn't you mean you got the chance to meet Guo Shuying?

What about people?

Xu Zhuo looked around, not to mention Guo Shuying, apart from him and Zhou Wen, there was not even a Chinese in the kitchen, all foreigners were busy preparing dishes.
