Chapter 59

"Well, yes, it seems that you have been paying attention to it this morning. The taste I make is relatively light, and I strive to seek freshness in the clear and beauty in the light. And it changes with the changes of the seasons. Summer and autumn are more light, while winter and spring are more emphasis. Full-bodied, the pursuit of color, aroma, taste, and shape. The taste is clear, fresh, tender, refreshing, smooth, and fragrant; the seasoning is sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty; this is the so-called five flavors and six flavors, which are suitable for Cantonese cuisine The characteristics of the department," Sun Chengsheng said.

Yi Yun read it in the book in the morning, and what Sun Chengsheng said was not wrong at all. "Five flavors and six flavors" are the main characteristics of Cantonese cuisine.

"Xiaoyun, my method of teaching cooking is different from others. I will not explain everything to you step by step, nor will I teach you how to cook from simple to difficult. I will follow the orders placed by customers every day. , I will teach you how to make whatever dishes you want, only practical operation is the real hard truth, and theory alone is useless," Sun Chengsheng said to Yi Yun again.

"Okay, Uncle Sun." This method happens to be Yi Yun's favorite. If you want to explain it from the beginning, he really doesn't have the time to wait. He doesn't plan to spend too much time on cooking. , but he will still try his best to learn well.

The two of them didn't sit for a long time, and Sun Chengsheng delivered a list here, which read: crispy chicken legs, colorful shredded beef, and the names of two vegetables.At this point, others may wonder why diners only order two dishes?Because Sun Chengsheng didn't have to cook all the dishes by him, otherwise why would he hire other chefs? The main reason is that these two dishes are made by Sun Chengsheng, and the taste is better!

"Now it's time to work, please pay attention, I will explain while cooking, you have to remember carefully" Sun Chengsheng said, rolled up two sleeves and started to work.

"First make 'crispy chicken legs', eight pieces of fresh chicken legs, add shredded ginger, salt, and curry powder, a little light soy sauce, mix well and marinate, add a little salt to the eggs, beat them, and wrap the marinated chicken wings evenly Egg liquid, dipped in bread crumbs, put it on a baking tray, sprinkled with a little black sesame, and put it in the oven for about 15 minutes. Crispy chicken legs' are more fragrant, and many chefs have caused the difference in taste because of the inappropriate proportion of ingredients." Sun Chengsheng said, while keeping his hands on, the movements were very fast, and after a while, he put A plate of well-arranged chicken legs was placed in the oven.

Looking at Sun Chengsheng's skillful movements, Yi Yun couldn't help feeling yearning.

"Before making multicolored shredded beef, I want to teach you how to use a kitchen knife. There are generally three types of kitchen knives: slicing knife, chopping knife, and bone chopping knife. Now we choose this slicing knife for meat. Commonly used kitchen knives" Sun Chengsheng pointed to the kitchen knives hanging on the wall and selected one of the most common kitchen knives, which is what he called a slicing knife.

Listening to Sun Chengsheng's explanation, Yi Yun secretly sighed that even the use of kitchen knives must be paid attention to, which is too complicated.

"As a chef, he must first learn how to use a knife, enforce the law correctly, and use soft and even strength in his hands, so that the cuts will be more beautiful and consistent, and can arouse the appetite of diners..." Sun Chengsheng While speaking, he held the beef steady, followed the texture of the meat, and cut quickly with the knife, and there was a very rhythmic sound of "Dole...Dole...Dole..." on the chopping board.After Sun Chengsheng cut the beef, he put it aside first, then chose four vegetarian dishes, and put them with some side dishes.When all the ingredients were ready, Sun Chengsheng first put the beef in the pot and stir-fried it. When the beef was half-cooked, he added vegetarian dishes and some side dishes, and added some wine into it.

It didn't take long for a plate of "Five Colored Shredded Beef" to appear in front of Yi Yun.When viewed from the outside, the colors were pleasing and harmonious, and they were so alluring that even Yi Yun couldn't resist taking a bite.

"Uncle Sun, your frying is too delicious." Yi Yun swallowed and said, even though he had already eaten Chinese food, he couldn't stop the glutton in his stomach.

Looking at Yi Yun's gluttonous appearance, Sun Chengsheng smiled and said, "It won't be long before you can make such delicious food."

In the days that followed, Yi Yun started his cooking career with fascination.In the morning, Sun Chengsheng was usually idle, so Yi Yun learned how to cook breakfast with other chefs, and only followed Sun Chengsheng to cook during lunch.

Sun Chengsheng is worthy of being a master at the national level. The dishes he cooks not only pay attention to delicious taste, but also require the matching of appearance and color. Fortunately, Yi Yun is very good at painting, so it is easier to learn how to match the appearance and color of dishes. Adding a little of his own ideas, even Sun Chengsheng had to admire, Yi Yun's appreciation was much stronger than him; not only that, Yi Yun was as good as learning cooking equipment from Zhou Tong before, with super receptivity, often taught by Sun Chengsheng I don't say I understand all the recipes, but I already remember seven or eight points. When Sun Chengsheng cooked the same dish for the second time, Yi Yun basically knew how to do it. When it was the third time, Sun Chengsheng asked Yi Yun to do it himself. Although the taste is not as good as what he made, it can be compared to the taste made by ordinary chefs. Only then did Sun Chengsheng believe that what Zhou Tong said that day was good. He only felt that if Yi Yun didn't become a chef in the future, it would be a big waste of his Tianbin, and he wanted to try his best to keep Yi Yun, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life.

In the past half a month, Yi Yun has learned to cook more than a dozen dishes, accounting for almost half of the main course series in Ningxin Tea Restaurant, such as "crispy chicken legs, multicolored shredded beef, chamomile pork belly, palace fish... "These are Sun Chengsheng's good dishes, and Yi Yun has already learned half of them.

This is only half a month. If it is someone else, it may not be learned within three months.No matter how talented Yi Yun is, others would not believe it, but Sun Chengsheng and Pan Xiaomei believed it, because Yi Yun would often use his time off work at night to stay alone in Sun Chengsheng's small kitchen and practice continuously. Fortunately, Sun Chengsheng allowed Yi Yun to squander the ingredients for the cooked dishes. It would be a pity if he changed to another boss, it was all money.With Yi Yun's hard work, Pan Xiaomei and Sun Wanwan would have a good time. He often asked Pan Xiaomei to go to Sun Wanwan's room to taste a dish after he cooked it. The food they cooked was very ordinary, but after eating for several nights in a row, the two girls became greedy, because not only did Yi Yun's dishes taste better, but most importantly, Yi Yun's tricks were different. Just looking at the artistic appearance of the pairing dishes that came out, they whetted their appetites.

As a result, Pan Xiaomei regained her original plumpness, and she often complained that "if I continue to eat like this, I will definitely become a pig."Sun Wanwan herself often eats the delicacies made by his father, and she has long been able to control the delicacies, so every time Yi Yun comes over, she just tastes it and stops eating it too much, and she has always maintained a slim and attractive appearance figure.

This night, Yi Yun served a plate of "Imperial Concubine Tofu".

At first glance, I saw a carved carrot sitting cross-legged in the middle like a queen, wrapped in green palace clothes all over her body. The fresh Japanese tofu is like a maid who serves it. One or two winter beans are added on top of it, and there are some attractive red peppers dotted on it, just like the delicate and beautiful flowers on it. The bead decoration looks dazzling; on the outermost edge of the plate, three red dates are placed in each of the four directions, and each of them is matched with a broccoli, which makes the whole plate of "Guifei Tofu" more attractive.

"Wow, you idiot...you made this." Pan Xiaomei looked at Yi Yun holding the delicious food on the plate and exclaimed in admiration.She stayed in Sun Wanwan's room earlier than Yi Yun, and now the two girls have become close friends, thanks to Yi Yun's bridge, Pan Xiaomei's invincible affinity, and her sincere and positive attitude. .

"Come on, Xiaomei, Wanwan, come and taste the taste of my 'Guifei Tofu'." Yi Yun put the dishes on the table and said to the two girls with a smile.Recently, Yi Yun has been studying cooking with all his might, and his obsession and pursuit of cooking has deepened. In addition, he has a very deep artistic foundation, which makes him even more powerful in cooking.

As soon as Yi Yun put down the dishes, the two girls eagerly picked up the chopsticks. When they wanted to pick up the dishes, the two of them didn't know where to start for a long time, because the dish seemed to be no longer a dish in their eyes. , but a plate of beautiful three-dimensional art paintings; a plate of exquisite and moving jewelry that makes people love it.

"Hey, why don't you guys eat?" Yi Yun asked the two girls who were in a daze.

"Is this for food?" Pan Xiaomei said with her red lips lightly parted, her eyes still staring blankly at the plate of delicious food.

Sun Wanwan also nodded in agreement, indicating that she was asking Yi Yun the same question.

"Fool, what is this if you don't eat it? This is my modified 'Guifei Tofu', try it soon," Yi Yun urged angrily. It's obviously a dish, so it doesn't look like something to eat.

Urged by Yi Yun, the two women finally raised their chopsticks slowly, but they still hesitated for a while before they were willing to do it. Seeing their distressed expressions, it seemed that they really couldn't bear to destroy such a beautiful picture or decoration.

When the golden tofu enters the mouth, a burst of strong fragrance spreads out, as if you are in a sea of ​​flowers all at once. But not greasy, soft but not loose, spicy but not numb, let the two women experience the elegant and noble temperament of "Guifei Tofu".

"It's... so delicious." Pan Xiaomei's eyes actually shed tears from the corners of her eyes.
