Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

Chapter 30: Playing as a chef apprentice, the weird value increases again!

Boom! ! !

As the fire rose again.

This time, the old woman selling chestnuts poured dozens of "pine cones" into the pot.

Stir-fry in the same manner.

However……

Compared with last time, the old woman selling chestnuts moved faster!

When the spatula was swung, it seemed that afterimages were drawn out, slapping rapidly.

After repeated beating, the "pine cones" turn into the shape of sugar-fried chestnuts, and are fried at high temperatures until golden and crispy.

At this moment, the old lady selling chestnuts quickly flipped the spatula and put the candied roasted chestnuts into oil paper bags.

Turn off the stove.

The pot was also made of a special material. It had obviously been roasted at high temperatures, but after the fire was turned off, the temperature in the furnace cooled rapidly, and the red light on the surface quickly faded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It seems to violate common sense in physics.

Immediately afterwards, the old woman selling chestnuts turned around, faced Chen Ye and said with a smile:

"This is the sugar-fried chestnut of success."

"The whole step is very simple. It basically involves starting a fire, heating the pan, and adding oil. Once the surface of the pan is completely hot, add oil immediately."

"After the oil is completely boiled, immediately put the ingredients into the stove and stir-fry quickly."

"It's best to make these ingredients look like roasted chestnuts with sugar... Of course, weird shapes are not impossible. However, a good chef needs to have a gourmet heart that pursues art."

“Beautiful food can often satisfy customers’ appetite.”

"Just like you young people, you can only do it when you see beautiful women... Haha, if you see an old woman like me who is almost losing all her teeth, how can you still have an appetite?"

“If you don’t make the ingredients more refined and just keep the original appearance, customers may not buy it.”

"So, as a chef, you must use a lot of seasoning knowledge and use qualified methods to prepare the ingredients as exquisite works of art, so that customers will willingly take out their wallets."

That's right...if you knew the original appearance of "pine cones", you would definitely vomit after taking one bite.

But it looks like roasted chestnuts with sugar, and even the taste is no different, which is acceptable!

Chen Ye felt calm. He had eaten it anyway, and it was indeed fine. It was also good for his body.

There is no need to worry too much about the original appearance of the ingredients.

Even if it is chicken and pork eaten in the normal world, if it is eaten raw like hair and blood, the picture will not be any better than eating the "pine cone" on Miss Squirrel Fish's back...

Therefore, food handling, cooking, seasoning and packaging are all part of what [chefs] have to learn.

[Strange value +100! 】

At this moment, Chen Ye suddenly noticed that a strange value increase message popped up on the bloody phone?

Wait... I obviously didn't walk just now...

How did this weird value increase?

Suddenly, Chen Ye realized that he could recall the entire steps of roasting chestnuts with sugar. Any detail will be deeply imprinted in your mind just by reading it once.

"Is it because of my insights that the [apprentice]'s understanding of the role has been digested, so the learning ability has been improved?"

Chen Ye realized the changes in his body and suddenly realized it, as if he had opened the door to a new world.

Observation and learning are also part of being an apprentice.

As the understanding increases, the ability of [Apprentice] is enhanced, and the learning ability it brings is also improved.

Now, Chen Ye doesn't even need to practice directly. He can get good learning results by just observing the whole step process.

The increase in weirdness value reached one hundred, which is not low at all!

This is just the efficiency gained from watching!

If you practice it yourself...

I'm afraid the growth rate will be higher than imagined!

"Young man, now that you understand the steps of the process, it's time to try it yourself."

“Reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles.”

“Practice brings true knowledge.”

The old woman selling chestnuts once again came out with famous quotes one after another...

Hearing this, Chen Ye nodded and came to the side of the boiler.

"Grandma, if I borrow your pot, it shouldn't be considered a transaction, right?"

Chen Ye suddenly realized something and asked one more question.

"Haha, of course not." The old woman selling chestnuts smiled and said, "If you are willing to play music for me, I am willing to teach you how to cook."

"Since you are teaching cooking, of course you need to use kitchen utensils."

"What you got from me is cooking skills, not anything else. Where is the mess..."

Chen Ye smiled slightly:

"Then I will find time to play it to you every day."

This sentence basically stated that what the old woman selling chestnuts wanted was for Chen Ye to be able to use the suona in his hand to play the music he was once familiar with.

Borrowing a stove is part of learning how to cook and does not count as any kind of transaction.

Even if the stove is damaged due to Chen Ye's incorrect operation, the rule of "equivalent exchange" will not be violated.

After all, this does not fall into the category of "exchange".

First time trying to cook.

Chen Ye did not buy dozens of candied roasted chestnuts at once like the old woman selling chestnuts.

He does not have such complete [chef] characteristics...

In order not to waste too much food, Chen Ye chose to reduce the difficulty of the operation and increase the success rate.

Therefore, for the first time, I just took out a few "pine cones" and placed them on the stove.

Then, gently turn the button to start the fire.

Sizzle! ! !

The suddenly rising flames instantly carried extremely hot and scalding temperatures, burning the surface of the furnace red.

At this time, Chen Ye's pupils shrank slightly, and he judged that the temperature was just right. He immediately grabbed the oil bottle and poured a wide amount of oil from the edge.

As a college student in the new era who lives at home and relies on takeaways, Chen Ye’s cooking skills are pitiful.

Apart from making instant noodles and cooking rice, my understanding of cooking is limited to the food preparation process that I occasionally watch on short video websites.

However, since watching the entire production process of sugar-roasted chestnuts, Chen Ye found that his control of the oil temperature seemed to be that of an experienced expert.

The moment the oil was hot, he quickly grabbed a few sugar-roasted chestnuts nearby and threw them into the pot.

Then he started beating him repeatedly with a spatula!

Bang bang bang! ! !

The sound of blacksmithing echoed in the quiet alleys of Xining.

However, the process was not as smooth as expected...

When the spatula was hit hard, the impact on the roasted chestnuts was stronger than expected, and they flew around in the pot, as if they were about to lose control at any time.

Chen Ye found that the texture of the "pine cone" was harder than expected. If you want to hammer it into the shape you want, you need a lot of strength and control.

Without enough force, it can't even make a dent in the "pine cone", let alone change its shape.

Without control, the "pine cones" subject to strong impact can easily fly around in the furnace.

If the furnace was not deep enough, it would have flown to nowhere!

However.

After practicing, Chen Ye found that his weirdness value had increased once again compared with before!

[Strange value +160]
