After quitting sports, I became a chef

After Dou Jingwei's family followed Zhao Changsong into the door, they all noticed the smell of food wafting from the kitchen. The smell of food wafting from the kitchen is not particularly strong, but the level of intrigue is first-class.

Before that, the only information Su Bai got from his senior brother Zhao Changsong was that Dou Jingwei's taste was relatively bland - Su Bai speculated from this that his sister-in-law's family's own food preferences should all be bland. What you want should be careful cooking on a light diet, and what you should pursue should be light and delicious home-cooked dishes for health.

Therefore, the dishes he prepared today are all light and pleasant in taste. The only heavy dish is braised beef. As the main dish in the meat dish, it complements other dishes, and it can be regarded as the finishing touch in the meal smell.

Su Bai was busy in the kitchen by himself, because the range hood was on and his hands were busy preparing dishes, so he didn't realize that his sister-in-law's family had arrived for a moment.

Dou Jingwei knew in advance that Zhao Changsong and his family had called his father's disciples to prepare today's lunch, but Dou Jingwei also knew that her future father-in-law would be the sprint coach of the provincial track and field team, so shouldn't her father-in-law's disciples be athlete?So Dou Jingwei originally thought that her father-in-law probably just called a disciple who was better at cooking to help.

However, Dou Jingwei's family knows her family affairs. Most of her family members are food connoisseurs. The meals made by an ordinary person who is good at cooking may not really be praised by her family, but her father-in-law In order to receive their family members, the family also specially recruited disciples to help them. This is how much they value their family, so in fact, before going out, Dou Jingwei also specially explained to her parents and two older brothers that she should praise others when eating. meals.

The Dou family's parents and two elder brothers certainly knew about the matter of reciprocity. After all, it is a good thing that the in-laws value their own children. They had already prepared the draft, and they were going to praise the in-laws and apprentices when they turned around for dinner. craftsmanship.

It's just that, after they walked in, Dou's parents and Dou Jingwei's two brothers forgot all the special phrases for business mutual praise that they had prepared...

This tangy rice aroma!

Using those commercial boasting phrases is a defilement of the food, and it will never be allowed!

Zhao Heping and Xie Yi didn't notice the Dou's family's distracted appearance. When they saw Dou Jingwei's family coming to their door, they brought all kinds of gifts, and their faces were full of smiles. All were welcomed into the living room, and Dou Jingwei and her family were invited to sit down in the spacious living room.

Zhao Heping also told Zhao Changsong to take out the good tea hidden at home, and personally brewed tea on a plate of wooden coffee table, filling each of his in-laws with a cup of good tea.

Whether it is the Dou family or the Zhao family, there is no intention to intervene in the matter of the two children dating and getting married. The two families are very satisfied with each other's children, and now the two families have formally met. , Whether it is Zhao Heping and Xie Yi or Dou Zewen and Jiang Caiwen, the parents of the Dou family, the four of them can see sincerity from each other's words and deeds.

At this point, the atmosphere between the two parties became more relaxed. The eight members of the two families sat in the living room chatting, turned on a TV as the background sound, and drank tea occasionally. It can be said that they were very harmonious.

Dou Jingwei and Zhao Changsong serve as the link between the two families, and they will also share a few sentences when their parents are chatting, so that the chat and communication between the two families can be smoother.

After being polite to each other, Dou Zewen, the father of the Dou family, finally couldn't hold back any longer. He pretended to turn his head to look in the direction of the kitchen inadvertently, and asked, "Oh, Lao Zhao, who is this in the kitchen?"

Hearing Dou Zewen take the initiative to mention Su Bai in the kitchen, Zhao Heping keenly discovered that his daughter-in-law and his family were very curious about Su Bai in the kitchen. Zuo made a very plain appearance, and said: "Oh, that's my disciple Su Bai, who has been brought up since he was a child. To me, he is no different from Chang Song."

As he said that, Zhao Heping coughed slightly: "Little Bai, he has a little talent in cooking. Isn't this Lao Dou and your family coming? I will call him to cook a meal, and I will also recognize Jingwei and the others. Recognize your face, so that you won't recognize your face when you meet your sister-in-law in the future."

Hearing that Zhao Heping admitted that the one in the kitchen was really his disciple, Dou Zewen was really surprised—after entering the door and smelling the smell of food, he originally thought what Zhao Changsong said was an excuse, and that the one in the kitchen might be his in-laws The chef who is in charge of the spoon is invited from a high-level private chef, but the private chefs in city S basically eat all of them, and he knows all the famous chefs, so he never thought of this strange-looking person in charge of the spoon in the kitchen. who is it.

As a result, after what Zhao Heping said, the person in the back kitchen is really his disciple... That is to say, the person in charge is still an athlete? !

Hearing what Dou Zewen asked, Zhao Heping shook his head and laughed: "No, this kid's athletic talent is average and he has retired before, but he is now in charge of the men's 400-meter event of our provincial track and field team." coach."

Hearing Zhao Heping's words, and smelling the aroma of food in the air, Dou Zewen's family felt that the identity of the young man who was cooking for them in the kitchen was a bit magical.

At this moment, in the kitchen, Su Bai finally stopped. He turned around and opened the glass sliding door, and stuck his head out to say hello to his master.

"Master, brother Changsong, the food is ready, we can prepare the meal."

After finishing speaking, Su Bai was the first to bring out a big bowl of soup, and walked towards the big round table in the restaurant.

Zhao Changsong saw that Su Bai finished his work and planned to come back to continue serving food, so he hurried to the kitchen, held down Su Bai who was about to enter the kitchen, and told him to wash his hands and prepare to eat, and he was the one who served the food. Let's do it.

At half past eleven o'clock, Zhao Heping and Dou Zewen's two families sat down on the big round table of Zhao's family, which was already filled with a table of good dishes and soup carefully prepared by Su Bai.

Placed in the middle of the turntable on the round table is a large pot of Wensi tofu soup in a blue and white porcelain soup bowl. In the soup, fine silky Wensi tofu is scattered, and decorated with winter bamboo shoots, shredded chicken, and ham that are also as thin as silk threads. , shiitake mushrooms, and shredded green vegetables, the whole bowl of soup is very fresh and elegant in color. If you scoop up a spoonful and put it in your mouth, there will be a light chicken soup aroma, and the melt-in-your-mouth Wensi tofu and The side dishes that are also processed very finely can be said to be salty, fresh and elegant, nourishing the stomach and nourishing the health.

After Dou Zewen opened the meal, he took a sip of this extremely laborious Wensi tofu soup, and immediately said hello.

Of course, there is more than just the bowl of Wensi tofu soup on the table. Apart from it, Su Bai also cooked many dishes that are usually cooked in the back kitchen on the third floor, such as delicate and soft steamed scallop eggs buried with delicious scallops, and For example, the delicious steamed yellow croaker.

Considering that Dou’s family prefers light health-preserving dishes, Su Bai also prepares stir-fried lilies and yams. The petals of lilies have a unique sweet and crisp taste after being fried, and they are also refreshing when paired with the soft and waxy yams. Taste, a slightly different taste, when you eat it in one bite, it is an extraordinarily fresh and refreshing feeling.

In addition, there are a series of dishes such as stir-fried shrimp with celery, stir-fried pork with beans, and stir-fried chicken nuggets. In the end, it is the only braised beef on the table that looks heavy.

After eating all the dishes on the table except beef, Dou Zewen stretched his chopsticks to the braised beef, and then put it into his mouth in one bite.

The stewed sauce has a suitable thickness. Not only that, Dou Zewen also found that Su Bai added two spoonfuls of rice wine to the stewed soup. During the process of stewing the beef, the aroma of the two spoonfuls of rice wine has already penetrated into the beef. Among them, this fragrance is not particularly prominent, but as long as you eat it in your mouth, you will never miss this intoxicating taste.

The slight aroma of wine dilutes the original richness of the sauce. In the end, the beef not only has the strong aroma of red stew, but also has an extra refreshing taste.

What a thought!

Swallowed the beef that was tender and tender even after stewing in his mouth, even Dou Zewen, who usually doesn't like heavy food, couldn't help but stick out his chopsticks again, and took another piece of beef into the plate of braised beef The meat comes.

Looking at the stewed beef cubes in his hand, Dou Zewen couldn't help but glance at Su Bai who was also sitting on the table and eating quietly - this is really... with both ingenuity and ingenuity, a whole table of food In Su Bai's hands, every dish makes people linger and forget to return, never forget to eat it.

Dou Zewen really didn't expect that the one who could cook such a table of delicious dishes was not the person in charge of any well-known high-end private chef in city s, but the 400-meter sprint coach of the track and field team of province s.

Is this called master in the folk?

After eating the food in his mouth and taking a mouthful of delicious soup, Dou Zewen was very satisfied.

It wasn't just him, among the people present, except for Su Bai himself, the rest of the people, counting as one, were all amazed.

Dou Jingwei also didn't expect that Zhao Changsong's junior had such an amazing skill.

Although she doesn't have the top-notch sense of food like her father and two older brothers, but she grew up in a family like Dou's family, and her ability to taste food is by no means comparable to that of ordinary people.

As the daughter of the Dou family, she certainly knows how picky her father and two brothers are. When Zhao Changsong asked her to make side comments, she said that the family did not eat bad food, which was also true.

However, at today's dinner table, there is no need to have such troubles at all. She can clearly see that her family has been completely captured by Su Bai's craftsmanship.

Not only the Dou family, but Zhao Heping's family, apart from Zhao Heping who had already tasted Su Bai's cooking in the canteen of the track and field team, Xie Yi and Zhao Changsong's mother and son also tasted Su Bai's cooking for the first time, and they ate very well. Surprised.

After everyone finished eating, Su Bai also brought out nine servings of sweet soup from the kitchen, so that everyone could have a sweet mouthful of the sweet soup and change the taste in their mouths.

When the two families turned back from the dining table to the living room, Dou Zewen rubbed his stomach in a rare way, and said with a smile: "Oh, Lao Zhao, your hospitality can be regarded as breaking my health-preserving habit. !"

Dou's family eats a light diet, and they always adhere to the habit of eating eight percent full, so that the body can always be in a more comfortable, happy and less burdensome state. As a result, this meal at noon is not only for Dou Zewen, but also for his two My son, who is rubbing his belly at the moment, obviously forgot the health rule of being [-]% full when he was eating.

No matter how you say it, the meal at noon today can be said to be a feast for the host and guests, and Su Bai, as Zhao Heping's disciple and Zhao Changsong's junior, formally greeted his sister-in-law's family.

The two brothers of the Dou family, who were prepared to give lunch a commercial brag, now looked at Su Bai as if they were looking at a big baby. They completely forgot about the commercial bragging, and praised him sincerely on the spot. Give Su Bai some time.

Among them, the boss, Dou Yifei, after Su Bai said hello to them, immediately took out his mobile phone without saying a word, and sincerely invited Su Bai to add the two brothers' WeChat, and said to Su Bai with a smile that he hoped to have a chance to be together again in the future Eating——the words that I want to make an appointment with Su Bai for the next meal are almost etched on my face.

On the other hand, after Su Bai thought about it, he told them very bluntly that as the chef of the track and field team's back kitchen and cafeteria and the head coach of the 400-meter race, he was usually busy and didn't have much time to go out. If you want, you can find him in the track and field team, and he can find time to entertain them in the track and field team cafeteria.

It was only now that Dou's family knew that Su Bai was not only the head coach of the men's 400m track and field team, but also the chef of the back kitchen - one person had two jobs, and not only the coach, but the chef was the most important job. Hook people are busy.

Although hearing Su Bai's proposal was very exciting, the two brothers of the Dou family were not ashamed to go to the track and field team, so that Su Bai, who was already very busy, would come to entertain them.

In the afternoon of the same day, on a domestic food forum called Food Color and Fragrance, a senior food commentator in the forum posted a brand new post.

Topic: [Today I went to my future brother-in-law's house for lunch. My in-laws and my family are very nice, but the lunch I prepared for my in-laws was supposed to be a good business, but I didn't expect it to be... really delicious. 】

The person who posted this post was Dou Yifeng, the eldest son of the Dou family.

In the Dou family, the two brothers, from Dou Zewen to Yifei Yifeng, are well-known in the food circle. The three of them have different evaluation styles on food, but they are all equally picky about the dishes. If a former private chef can get a level above the passing line from the father and son, then the chef must have good cooking skills worthy of a taste.

In the food forum, there are also a group of fans of the father and son, who will follow the accounts of the father and son respectively, and speculate on the final level of the food based on the comments posted by the father and son.

After seeing Dou Yifeng's post, the people in the forum immediately found the accounts of Dou Zewen and Dou Yifei. As expected, after Dou Yifeng's post, his father and brother also sent their own comment posts one after another.

Among them, Dou Zewen's comments are usually more serious, and the title of his post is also very straightforward: [The master is among the people, and the food is hard to forget-remember the lunch at the in-law's house today. 】

In this post, Dou Zewen first listed Su Bai’s meals one by one, from Wensi tofu soup to steamed scallops, fried shrimp with celery, fried pork with beans, and a series of lunch dishes, and then rated these dishes one by one. Analyze reviews.

[Wensi tofu is as thin as a hair, with exquisite knife skills, and the taste of the soup is well blended, just right, and it can be ranked first among the Wensi tofu soup that I have tasted in recent years. 】

[Scallop steamed egg is delicate and tender, a little sesame oil soaks into it, which makes people's cheeks and teeth fragrant. 】

[Stir-fried shrimp with celery, the celery is crispy, the shrimp is smooth and tender, refreshing like the wind, when you eat it, you will have a special taste...]

…………

……

Originally, after lunch at noon, Dou Zewen wanted to praise Su Bai, but after Su Bai recognized his seniority with them, as an elder, he always felt that the praise was too much and inappropriate. The praise of a delicious meal was held in my heart, and when I got home at noon, I quickly praised every dish Su Bai made one by one.

The friends in the forum rarely see Dou Zewen's appearance of cooking every dish from beginning to end, and they are also quite surprised. What surprised them even more is that the father and son, who usually speak differently, commented on the style today. Although they still have their own characteristics, the meal they ate at noon is all exaggerated with the same caliber.

Finally, after reading the posts of the father and son, some friends couldn't help replying questions under Dou Yifeng's post.

9l: 【Is this really a meal cooked by your in-laws?What kind of peerless celebrity chef must the other party be able to make all three of you, father and son, boast like this?Does your in-laws have a private kitchen?Are you advertising for your in-laws? 】

There are quite a few people who have this question, but the reputation of the Dou family father and son has always been good. There are some old food lovers in the forum. Now seeing the unanimous praise of the father and son, they all feel that it is Advertisement, they also plan to eat and eat to see if the compliments of the father and son are worthwhile.

So someone also replied to Dou Yifeng's post, asking for the address of a private chef.

16l: [You father and son are not qualified for this advertisement, can you give me the address of your in-laws' private kitchen?Seeing that you are boasting so hard, for no other reason, I just want to try it and see if it is as good as you said. 】

After the post asking for the address of the private chef was +1'd by a group of veterans, Dou Yifeng silently replied to these veterans.

Landlord: [...To be honest, everyone wants to eat, in fact, I really want to have another meal, but they are not private chefs, and they are not open to the public. 】

?

After seeing Dou Yifeng's reply, the old gourmets in the forum were even more surprised—wait, aren't you a private chef?So are the father and son really boasting sincerely?

Hey, if this really makes the father and son boast like this, then the craftsmanship of their in-laws is heavenly?

No, thinking about it this way makes me want to eat it even more!

After seeing Dou Yifeng's reply, the old gourmets were not too reconciled to say that they had no chance to taste this delicacy, so some people jokingly replied to Dou Yifeng, asking their family, father and son, to persuade their in-laws to open a private kitchen as soon as they have such good craftsmanship , Guaranteed to earn a lot of money.

Of course, some people suspect that this is also the advertising purpose of the father and son, but the comments of the three of them have indeed aroused the interest of many gourmet diners.

Seeing these replies, Dou Yifeng thought about it differently, and of course he knew what these altar friends were guessing in their hearts, so he simply replied Su Bai's message.

Landlord: [Okay, my brother-in-law’s family is in the sports industry, and has nothing to do with our gourmet circle. Today this is really not an advertisement, and the person who cooks is not my sister’s parents-in-law, but my sister’s father-in-law’s disciple. The track and field coach of Bajing also brought out a promising player under his hands. In the future, he might go to the direction of coaching the national team. How can he come out and open a private kitchen? 】

It wasn't until Dou Yifeng's words came to this point that the people in the forum really believed Dou Yifeng's words, but these old gourmets were all concerned about not being able to eat possible delicacies, and criticized the Dou family father and son for not being able to eat. Honesty, it is obviously a good food that the big guys can't eat, and the father and son have to go to the battle to comment, and hook out the greedy bugs in everyone's stomach.

Dou Yifeng is also depressed. Su Bai's craftsmanship is really good. In the end, not to mention the gourmets in the forum, he himself ate this meal and didn't finish it. Although he hooked up with Su Bai at noon, he still has the opportunity to have dinner with him in the future , but his job is track and field coach after all, and he also has such a busy job as a cook in the back kitchen, so how can he often ask people out just for dinner?

Thinking of this, Dou Yifeng replied in the post again.

Proprietor: [If you want to eat, there is no way out. My brother-in-law’s little brother who is in charge of the spoon is not only a coach, but also one of the chefs in the canteen on the third floor of the provincial track and field team. In the restaurant, he cooks a small part of the dishes. Although the big pot dishes are definitely not as good as our lunch meal, you can still taste it, right? 】

After speaking, Dou Yifeng added another sentence: [However, I heard that the cafeteria on the 3rd floor is specially for their track and field team to train athletes, so ordinary people may not be able to enter. 】

……

…………

???

Seeing these words of Dou Yifeng's last reply, the veterans in the forum were a little confused.

What do you mean?

Originally, it was fine that the person who cooked well was a track and field coach, but he also served as the chef of their track and field team cafeteria?From a coach to a chef, what kind of way is this?

And... the old gourmets can't help but wonder, is the chef in the canteen of the track and field team really cooking as good as Dou's father and son said?

Just when people were a little skeptical, a veteran who happened to know Sun Xiangdong called Sun Xiangdong directly after seeing keywords such as the cafeteria on the third floor of the provincial track and field team, and asked them if there was such a person there. After dialing, the old glutton listened dizzily to Sun Xiangdong's compliments to Su Bai.

In the end, Lao Tao transferred these words of Sun Xiangdong's praise of Su Bai to the forum, and finally said: [Sun Xiangdong is also an old chef, and I know that he should have a few friends here in S City. Since he also praised him like that... 】

[Then everyone depends on their ability, let's see who has the ability to eat the meal cooked by Chef Su Bai. 】
