I'm just sorry for plagiarism

Speaking of which, each of these high-paying chefs has received professional training. They went to a prestigious culinary university and studied a popular major.Naturally, I despise these folk remedies that cannot be included in textbooks.

Only now.

With the slow simmering time, a strange fragrance that they had never smelled before gradually wafted out from Master Zhou's pot.

This group of people was inevitably startled and fell into hesitation.

How come I have never smelled this aroma after working as a chef for so many years?

Everyone is an expert, whether the food is good or not, you can tell the outline just by the faint aroma.

Although they have never been in contact with this unusual aroma, whether in school or at work these years.But that professionalism still supported them, and they recognized it almost subconsciously. This dish is a delicious dish with complete color, fragrance and taste.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help being surprised.

Just such a dirty old cook can surprise them with his knife skills and cooking skills?

This is too incredible.

The profession of a chef really depends on qualifications, and he can receive a good education, and it is indeed much higher-end than those private cupboards that have been making snacks and desserts for a lifetime.

Everyone's slanderous kung fu did not stop, except for the master who was making soup, the remaining two took a deep breath, dissipated this inexplicable thought from their minds, and refocused their attention on the person in front of them. That chopping board.

About 20 minutes of work.

The chef who made the soup was the first to open the lid of the pot, and immediately, a fresh smell filled the entire back kitchen.

Even Boss Li couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Then he looked at the eldest lady with a showy look.

She didn't speak, but the pretty look at the corner of her mouth was conspicuous no matter how she looked.

The meaning seems to be showing off, look, our chef, what he cooks is delicious!

To put it bluntly, the culinary competition next door was held with great fanfare, but the reason why some chefs on the West Street did not participate was also because these masters with a high starting point looked down on the kind of chef next door who used chefs to attract traffic. Behavior.

What is rice?

Cooking is to cook the ingredients with exquisite craftsmanship, so as to bring happiness to others.This kind of cooking, this kind of income, is called rice, and it is called real cooking.

If this culinary skill is nicknamed a traffic star, it will make people feel that these high-level executives behind the scenes are tarnishing their ideals and the profession they love.

Although Boss Li looked down on the competition because of the small scale of the opponent, he did not call on the chefs in the shop to participate.I even didn't invest the funds at hand behind the scenes of that game.

But in the mainland, she also frustratingly tried to sign up for the chef in hand.

"Let's try it? All of you are professionals. It's impossible to be inferior to the cooks in these small places, right?"

The result was that many people shook their heads and refused.

Boss Li was helpless, but he couldn't say much.After all, this is the private matter of other employees. If I interfere vigorously, it will not be beneficial.

Those who came and went again and again encountered such a scene.

Seeing Boss Li's ostentatious gaze here, the eldest lady smiled dumbly, and didn't say much, but just watched that Master Zhou on the field intently.

More than ten minutes have passed since he put the seafood into the pot.

During this period, he was not idle. Instead, he was preparing some secret soups and seasonings, and he seemed to be working hard.

Although systematic learning, the seasoning of seafood is also an essential part.

But for this kind of veterans who serve the folks, they should have derived another secret recipe that is more down-to-earth and more delicious.

More than ten minutes later, the cooking session of this competition finally came to an end.

Accompanied by the ticking sound of the timer.

The cooks stopped what they were doing.

The waitress in hot clothes came up and put the dishes on the white ceramic plates. The chefs stood with their hands behind their backs, watching the plates being carried to the judges' table, without saying a word, just holding their chests up, Waiting for the comments of the two judges, one big and one small.

The eldest lady looked at it, and was a little curious about the steaming casserole at first glance, "Who made this?"

"This dish is called Bainiao Chaofeng, and it's my cooking." At this time, a voice that was neither humble nor overbearing came out from the crowd.

Just look at the imposing master standing in the front row, raised his head slightly, and introduced to Li Xia.

"This dish is a signature dish in the Suzhou-Hangzhou area. The main ingredients used are chicken and pork hind legs. Steam the chicken, then chop the pig hind legs into fine pieces and make dumplings. Add onion, ginger, garlic and monosodium glutamate during the cooking process. Season with salt, and simmer over low heat until crispy." After that, he introduced word by word, as if he had prepared it, and talked eloquently, "Of course, there is also added Some seasonings that I personally like, the taste is more like Sanhuai in Yecheng, soft and delicious, it is worth a try."

Listen to the chef's slow introduction.

The eldest lady looked at the crystal clear dumplings and the skillfully cut chicken in the casserole, and couldn't help sniffling.

There is a umami taste in this taste alone, which is enough to show the quality of this dish, which is excellent.

She couldn't help but picked up the chopsticks, picked up a small piece of chicken from the bowl, put it in her mouth and tasted it.

Immediately his eyes lit up.

It really is delicious.

Although it has been cooked for a long time, the chicken is not bad at all, and it has a full taste, and even the slight fishy smell has been wiped away.

Coupled with the seasoning with ulterior motives, the taste of the whole chicken is completely different from that of ordinary Bainiao Chaofeng. I am afraid that with such a technique, it is also a first-class chef in their Gaoxing restaurant.

"This master's surname is Liu. We recruited a new chef in March. His skills are superb. Those dignitaries who come here to eat now like to order his cards." Boss Li on the side also showed off with a smile.

Having said that, there was not much surprise on her face.He just picked up the chopsticks with extreme restraint, tasted a few mouthfuls casually, nodded slightly, and put down the tableware all at once.

As if he was tasting the rough food at the roadside stall, he didn't show too much surprise.

After all, I grew up with a golden key in my mouth. I ate a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas. Now I have developed patience with these delicacies. No matter how delicious they are, I can't taste the novelty.

The eldest lady was a little helpless.

There is really no reference value for this person to be a judge.

Immediately afterwards, the rest of the cooks also became familiar one by one.

After all, they are professional, reporting the recipes one by one, and the catchy and neither humble nor overbearing appearance really reveals a kind of temperament.

The name of that temperament is called nobility.

No wonder those dignitaries like to come to West Street for dinner.

To be honest, even if the dishes are not to your liking, just the exquisite decoration and professional atmosphere can make people feel that they are above others.

What do those bureaucratic merchants who have made great progress care about most?

Naturally, it was that reserve.

Fast food restaurants and ordinary street food are naturally out of the reach of these noble people.

But if you treat guests to dinner in a western restaurant, you feel that the safe and quiet environment is not suitable for business negotiations.

On the other hand, the area of ​​West Street is half west and half middle, and the site is empty.Without the restrictive rules and regulations of western food restaurants, it gives full freedom and at the same time allows diners to enjoy the superiority of a superior person. Naturally, it has become the most famous signature restaurant in Yecheng.

Looking at the line of chefs standing proudly and dignified.The eldest lady couldn't help scratching her head.

It seems that in this life, the reason why West Street can carry out various grandiose and even extremely exaggerated commercial expansions in different fields is not because of its arrogance.

This rich asset gathered by the dignitaries can indeed be regarded as a large sum of money backing.

122 Chapter 120, Disappointment

Wait until the introduction of a group of people is almost done.

The position of the last platen is naturally reserved for Master Zhou.

Seeing that he was being called, the other party suddenly scratched his head, and walked straight over from the chopping board with a panicked expression, as if he was not used to the gathering of countless pairs of eyes.

He opened his mouth, wanting to be like the previous chefs, and say some introductory words with great relish.

But he stuttered for a long time, and the speed of his brain didn't seem to turn around.He just stared there in a daze, his face embarrassed.

Looking at the uncle who looked like a telegraph pole, the other chefs naturally let out a burst of laughter.

Well, of course it was that malicious sneer.

This person is not only an uninvited guest, even his own boss doesn't think much of him.It's just because of the presence of that pretty girl, my boss can't do anything wrong.So this overt and covert act of driving people out naturally has to be done by their subordinates.

Boss Li squinted his eyes and didn't say much, but Miss Er sighed, placed the ordinary bun in front of her, and stared wide-eyed.

That's right, it's buns.

Master Zhou put in a lot of effort, steaming, frying, blanching and washing, but the last thing he made was two ordinary steamed stuffed buns?

This surprised the young lady a little.

Boss Li twitched the corner of his mouth, disdainful from the bottom of his heart.

It’s not that food such as steamed stuffed buns can’t be found in elegant halls, but how should I put it, even if they make steamed stuffed buns in West Street, they will use syrup to carve some elegant and beautiful patterns on them, which will make diners feel a kind of exquisiteness. a feeling of.However, no one has ever put a plain ball of dough on the dinner plate in such a vain manner when cooking.

And in high-end restaurants, the kind of steamed buns that look like carved rolls are much more delicate than this bulky bun, both in size and shape.It's about the same size as a miniature one that can be held in one hand, but right now, the bun can be wrapped with two hands. No matter how you look at it, it's in the shape, so it doesn't get a high score.

The eldest lady dragged her chin.

It seems that the threshold for the so-called cooking competition audition is quite low.

Otherwise, if it was the kind of competition where there are so many masters, just this plain appearance would have already been brushed off.

Master Zhou's knife skills are good, but he is used to cooking in restaurants, and the meals he makes are not special. Deliciousness and practicality are the main factors, and he does not add beauty to the dishes.

Not to mention that this steamed stuffed bun was unremarkable and had nothing to do with the word visual effect, just the presentation of the dish was a bit unremarkable.

To put it nicely, it is called unadorned, but to put it bluntly, it is just that it does not understand artistic flexibility and is old-fashioned.

He may simply think that as long as food is delicious, it is enough, and he will not bother to study other aspects.It can even be said that the other party did not think that the shape of the food is also a very important part of cooking.

This point, when she first came into contact with her in person, the eldest lady had a deep understanding.

The special seafood dish whose unit price has doubled several times, its shape is almost the same as that of ordinary seafood grilled shrimp, except for some secret soy sauce coloring on the surface, it can almost be called mediocre up.

If the waiter hadn't explained in advance which dish cost a lot of money, I'm afraid no one would be able to eat the noble taste of the thousand and eight hundred yuan.

This is actually a very disadvantageous thing.

After all, there is a term in psychology called induced thinking.

This concept is so common that many people are not familiar with it.

It refers to the fact that under the various hints of foreign objects, one will have a herd mentality of being deliberately led away. .

In all fairness, if the eldest lady is to cook that expensive seafood dish, regardless of whether her appetite is good or not, the first thing she will think about is how to distinguish the appearance of paella from ordinary dishes.

Make it exquisite and beautiful, and make it unique. In this way, even if your food does not meet the thousands of tastes, it will still make many diners have psychological hints and feel that their meal is worth it. up!

After all, in 09, many residents of small cities still felt that good things did not have to be expensive, but expensive things must be of good quality.

Although this kind of thinking seems a little naive from the perspective of future people, it has to be said that in those years, large and small businesses relied on the mentality of the masses to make a lot of money.

As for Master Zhou, it was obvious that he hadn't comprehended this point.

He is just an ordinary closet, he has not experienced the bombardment of economics in later generations, let alone read poetry and books, so he naturally does not understand this so-called pyramid scheme strategy.

He just felt that he cooked a good meal with his heart, and that was enough. Although the appearance was relatively ordinary, the inside was quite different, so how could he not be bought?

The eldest lady didn't speak for a while, but seeing Master Zhou's gaze from afar, it seemed that she was conveying such suspicion.

She couldn't help covering her head.

It’s hard to say anything at the moment, since people have seriously made it for you to taste, it’s quite unreasonable to comment on it if you really don’t have a bite.

Simply use chopsticks to open a piece of dough and put it in your mouth.

It is worth mentioning that although the appearance of the buns is a bit rustic, the structure inside is not vague at all.

On the surface, it was a cold and ordinary gnocchi that seemed to have lost its fixed temperature after being placed for a long time.

But since Lixia picked up a small piece of dough, wisps of hot air, accompanied by the fragrance rushing into the nose, immediately drifted into the whole house.

Even Boss Li and the chefs, who had been slightly disdainful before, couldn't help but widen their eyes.

I have tasted this aroma before when I was cooking, but at that time, everyone was cooking, and there were all kinds of smells everywhere, such as the smell of soy sauce meat from braised pork, and the oily smell of steamed vegetables. After a while, this special smell was covered up.

But I didn't expect that after those disturbances gradually dissipated with the passage of temperature, the whole room was filled with the faint seafood fragrance again. The smell of such a deep breath has already made many people fascinated.

I don't know what recipe the master added this week.

In the faint aroma of seafood, there is also an indescribable sweet and sour taste.

Some are distant, some are long.

Just taking a sip of it makes me feel a bit intoxicated.
