Chapter 404 Let me see when I cook a dish
The memories came to an end in a hurry, and Su Zifang thought that when he had the opportunity to go back to school to visit Jia Xibei, he could stop by to see Dabai.
After all, it carries the memories and love of his youth!
But the top priority right now was to confirm the dishes. After Peng Chenglong had just inquired about the earthen stove, he didn't even bother to worry about what he was doing. He opened a pot and looked at the two of them.
“You guys are going to make two dishes and I’ll take a look!”
"Jiuyuehuang, can you do it?" Peng Chenglong looked at Zhao Xiaoman and pursed his lips.
"Can."
"Make one and let me see."
Peng Chenglong was very straightforward. After speaking, he looked at Su Zifang: "What about you? What will you do?"
Su Zifang:......
He just wanted to say that June Yellow was used at least when making crab-stuffed oranges, but it ended up being given to Zhao Xiaoman.
As for the remaining dishes, it seems that the deep-fried prawns could be simpler.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Peng Chenglong say directly: "Xiaodong said you won the first prize in the Huaiyang Cuisine Competition, individually or as a team?"
"Took them all."
Su Zifang responded without humility.
This made Peng Chenglong instantly confused as to how to speak.
Seeing how confused Su Zifang was, he thought that Su Zifang was only the first in the team competition, but if he could get the first place as a solo player, his cooking skills shouldn't be very bad, right?
"Boss Su's master is still Master Xue Yixue. A famous teacher produces a great disciple!" Peng Lidong added.
[The current points are reduced to 35 points.]
Su Zifang:???
I didn’t say anything, why did my points suddenly drop?
And this range is a bit fast, right?
etc?
It seems like Peng Lidong lowered his tone after he spoke?
Su Zifang grasped the details keenly.
"Could it be that Master Peng thinks that my personal number one ranking is because I took advantage of my master's name, and that team cooking is a result of everyone's joint efforts? Isn't my ability strong enough?"
If Peng Chenglong could see what Su Zifang was thinking at this moment, he would definitely give him a silent thumbs up.
This is exactly what he thought!
But I don’t blame Peng Chenglong for thinking so, Su Zifang’s character is really great!
He comes from a family of chefs, apprentices to famous teachers, but he is just a junior chef. He is secretive when it comes to cooking, and he really looks like a second-generation cook who is ignorant and unskilled!
Using the name and prestige of his ancestors, he obtained a bunch of qualifications and certificates that looked very powerful, and then used connections to sneak into a high-end hotel as the head chef.
The judges who started participating in various competitions after reaching their forties earned dirty money!
Maybe when you get old, you can become a board member of a certain cuisine based on your qualifications, publish a book, appear on a show, and gain both fame and fortune!
He has never been exposed to cooking fumes throughout his life, but he can make a lot of money using his identity as a chef.
For Peng Chenglong, in his eyes, a character like Su Zifang is a delicious dish - chicken.
You must be given a severe lesson.
However, Su Zifang had already guessed the reason for Peng Chenglong's emotional change and immediately became dissatisfied.
Is there anything wrong with the opening chapter of Waste Chai Liu?
Is there anything wrong with having a good character?
Is it wrong to not be able to choose who will be my father and who will be my grandfather?
It doesn’t matter if you are really not good at it, but you will still be doubted if you are obviously good at it.
This hurts your self-esteem too much.
No matter what you think about the system task, you must prove your strength! Thinking of this, Su Zi said loudly: "Then I'll make fried prawns!"
“Fried prawns in oil?”
Peng Chenglong was stunned for a second, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Stir-fried prawns in oil is a famous Huaiyang dish. Although it is relatively simple among these dishes, it is definitely the one that most considers the skill of the chef.
After all, stir-fry dishes are not like stews where the flavor can be absorbed slowly, and the error rate is relatively high.
You only get one chance to stir-fry!
If you don't perform well the first time, it will get old and hard to swallow again.
Good fried prawns need to be stir-fried over high heat, with crispy shells, tender meat, crispy texture, and a slight sweet and sour taste. They are considered to be the best among Huaiyang cuisine.
For Peng Chenglong, it is easier to test Su Zifang's cooking skills than other dishes.
"Then let me see how you make this dish!" Peng Chenglong scooped out a basket of shrimps from the basin and handed it to Su Zi, standing aside and watching him cook.
"Just watch it!" Su Zi complained silently, but the prawns started to be processed.
After rinsing with clean water, the scissors were cut across, and the shrimp's whiskers and feet fell to the ground one after another. Then they opened the back and pulled out the shrimp line. The continuous movements made Peng Chenglong's eyes light up.
With this craftsmanship, it doesn’t look like he has never cooked before!
Let alone junior chefs, the senior chefs he has seen may not necessarily have this ability.
[The current points have been increased to 40 points.]
A reminder flashed through, and Su Zixin was secretly happy. With a calm expression on his face, he put all the shrimps he had just processed into the water and rinsed them again.
Take it out and pour it onto absorbent paper. Knead it for a few times and pour all the dry water into the bamboo basket on the side.
Next start making the sauce.
Su Zifang recalled the details of when he watched Kong Yan cook fried prawns, and began to make preparations.
Pour one spoon of sugar, two spoons of light soy sauce, two spoons of cooking wine, half a spoon of salt, and white pepper into the water and blend evenly. Cut some green onion, ginger and garlic slices and set aside.
Peng Chenglong's eyes were filled with joy again due to his quick hand speed and consistent knife skills.
But there are no extra points this time.
Su Zifang vaguely guessed the reason.
This is the preparation stage, and I have already added points once. If I still need to add points, I can only do it in the cooking stage.
Thinking about this situation, heat the pot and heat the oil.
There was burning firewood next to the earthen stove. Within two minutes of being inserted into the stove, a fire ignited, and a few wisps of green smoke came out of the pot.
Su Zifang quickly poured in the oil, and when it was about 80% hot, he poured in the prawns. The beep-bop-bang sound of oil splashes instantly sounded, and the aroma of the shrimp also came out.
After frying for a minute, immediately remove the perilla seeds and continue to let the oil heat up. When it reaches 90% heat, many golden bubbles will appear on the surface of the pan, and the frying is completed.
Scoop out all the oil from the fried shrimps, pour the oil back into the pan, and add the sauce when fragrant.
Wait until the sauce boils, add the fried prawns, stir-fry evenly and immediately remove from the pan and sprinkle with chives.
The fried prawns are done!
[The current points have been increased to 45 points.]
Su Zifang looked at Peng Chenglong and found that the expression on his face had begun to look somewhat accepting of Su Zifang.
However, this score still needs to be finally tasted before the final decision can be made.
Peng Chenglong didn't waste any time, just picked up a prawn with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
The chewing sound of "click" sounded instantly, the sweet and sour sauce filled Peng Chenglong's mouth, and the appreciation in his eyes was no longer concealed!
"Xiao Su, you did a good job!"
[The current points have been increased to 60 points.]
Su Zifang smiled softly: "No, no, it's far behind! We still have to learn from Uncle Peng!"
But my heart blossomed with joy.
After the dish is approved, it is only 20 points away from reaching the minimum standard. According to the speed of 20 points for one dish, it is the effort of one dish.
When she thought about the two-way cooking skills she was about to acquire, Su Zi was full of confidence and enthusiasm!
As for why he thought the mission reward was to shoot the bow left and right...
Su Zifang didn't seem to have thought about it.
On the side, Zhao Xiaoman's June Yellow has also come out of the pot, and Peng Chenglong was full of praise for the taste after tasting it.
At this time, the husband's family members who came to help with the cooking also arrived one after another.
Chapter completed!
