Rebirth's Private Kitchen

Wei Qi Su Zhi and others helped to take care of Grandma Xie, and Tang Lin took Liang Ting back to Linshui City.Liang Ting donated his house, and the two lived in it during the two days they were in Linshui City.

Tang Lin is not short of money, so he plans to return to Beijing Province after the registration, and then come back to participate in the qualifiers after a month.The registration place is in the city center, and Liang Ting's house is near the registration place, so the two are not in a hurry.The two got off the plane and went back to Liang Ting's home first.Liang Ting had asked someone to come early to clean the house. Tang Lin entered the house and was very satisfied to see the bright and clean house.

Originally, I thought I would see a room full of women's clothing, but Liang Ting's room in Beijing was full of women's clothing thrown everywhere...

It happened to be noon when they came, and when the nanny left, she made lunch and put it on the table. After Tang Lin and Liang Ting put their luggage in their respective rooms, they filled their stomachs first.

"Take a break first, and sign up in the afternoon." Tang Lin wiped his mouth after eating the last bite of food.The dishes cooked by the nanny are not bad, very much in the local style of Linshui City.

Liang Ting was pressing the phone for a while, then looked up at Tang Lin, "Master, my parents knew you were here, and asked if you are free to have dinner together tonight."

"Okay." After all, he took advantage of others and became Liang Ting's master. As a master, it seems that he should always greet his elders?Tang Lin thought about it and agreed.

"I'll reply to them right away."

Tang Lin shook his head, cleaned up the dishes and left the kitchen, sat on the sofa in the hall and sent Su Zhi a WeChat message.At this point, the other party should be in the hospital. Recently, Su Zhi would go to the hospital to take care of Granny whenever he was free at noon. Tang Lin had almost figured out his itinerary.

Sure enough, the phone received a reply soon.

The two chatted for a while, and finally ended the topic by saying that Su Zhi wanted to peel an apple for Granny Xie.Looking at the last message on the interface, Tang Lin thought about it silently.When will Su Zhi peel an apple for him?

It's only the end of February, and the winter in Linshui City seems to have only one tail left.The temperature during the day is scorching, which is in stark contrast to the Beijing province where the cold wind is still blowing.

Tang Lin and Liang Ting took a nap at home, and drove to the registration site after getting up.The registration site is in a tall and tall commercial building. There are several windows on the first floor of the commercial building, and all of these windows have been used as the registration center at this time.And in front of each window, there is a long queue that is about to go to the door.

The charm of the culinary competition is really extraordinary.

This commercial building seems to be the regional office building of the organizer of the Linshui City Cooking Competition. At first glance, one has to marvel at the generosity of the cooking competition.

Taking a closer look, these registration windows are still different, [-]% of them are registration channels for cooking entertainment competitions, and the other [-]% are for professional cooking competitions.

The registration window for the culinary professional competition was the least crowded. Tang Lin took a casual look and found that there were less than ten people in total.After thinking about it carefully, it is understandable.After all, many people have been turned away by the five entries, and today is the first day of registration, and there may be other players in the region and other countries rushing back.

"There are so few people in the professional competition, why does it take so long to compete?" Liang Ting was puzzled, at first he thought that the long queues at the gate were all for the professional competition, and thought it was because of people That's why more selection time is needed, but looking at it now, it doesn't seem to be the case.

A buddy in front of Tang Lin heard Liang Ting's muttering, turned his head and said with a smile, "This is your first time signing up, have you seen the entertainment competition next door? It's because the entertainment competition starts first. It's the turn of the professional competition, so our competitions will be longer than one competition. And in the middle of the time, the organizers have to confirm the next round of competition topics and competition methods. Therefore, the culinary competition has been rounded for three years .”

Liang Ting seemed to understand.

Because there were not many people in the team, it was soon Tang Lin's turn. Tang Lin handed over the entries one by one to the people in the window, and then got a booklet, which explained the history of the cooking competition, the entry time, etc.Afterwards, the other party gave an electronic watch, which seemed to record various information about the players. When the time comes, just bring the electronic watch to the competition site, where there will be a professional window to confirm the identity of the players and their promotion status.

Tang Lin flipped through the brochure he gave him and read it casually. One month later, the professional qualifiers will be held on the top floor of this business building. There is a large open-air platform on it, and the contestants will compete there.After the professional qualifiers, there will be a very popular cooking and entertainment competition.The entertainment competition is also nationwide, and the number of participants is at least ten to twenty times higher than that of the professional competition. After all, the threshold for participation is not high, and there will be many professional chefs who want to participate in the professional competition but are hindered by no quota. Practicing hands, both the viewing index and the expectation are very high.

It is a culinary competition among the people. Except that the qualifiers will not be broadcast live on TV, each subsequent round of the competition will be broadcast on a dedicated gourmet station.

If some people want to follow the path of the entertainment industry, this is understandably a shortcut.Therefore, the contestants inside sometimes have many handsome men and beautiful women, so it also attracts more viewers to watch.

Recreational competitions are similar to professional competitions, except that there is no world competition, and there are four rounds of competitions in cities, provinces, Beijing provinces, and the whole country.Those who can enter the national competition can be regarded as some real skills.The person who won the championship, second and third place, if he is favored by others, may become a celebrity chef in the entertainment industry, similar to Chu Xing.

Therefore, the champion, runner-up and third runner-up of the entertainment competition are also very attractive.

The buddy who gave Liang Ting the answer just now finished registering, greeted them and left. Tang Lin looked at the strong arm exposed by the other party. This should be a strong player, and suddenly he was very much looking forward to the competition with the other party.

Liang Ting also wants to participate in the professional competition, but his three-legged cat kung fu can only be abused in the past, and the number of participation in the professional competition is not so easy to mix.Under Tang Lin's suggestion, Liang Ting went to sign up for a cooking entertainment competition. The name was to exercise his cooking skills, and to see how far his cooking skills had reached by the way.

In fact, according to what Liang Ting said, although he can't compete with the players in the professional competition, he is definitely in the top three in the entertainment competition!Tang Lin didn't want to hit him. If he simply scanned the teams lined up in the entertainment competition, he would find that some players in those teams were not simple.Don't look at a smiling housewife who is still coaxing her children and think that the cooking skills of the other party are just the same. Sometimes the dishes made by these mother-level figures are more powerful.

After registering for the entertainment competition, you will get a brochure similar to the professional competition. The contents of the booklet are all about some interesting facts and requirements of the entertainment competition in recent years.In addition to the booklet, players will also receive a digital watch.It seems that regardless of whether it is a professional or recreational competition, the treatment is the same.

Tang Lin looked at Liang Ting's brochure, and even the venues for the competition were exactly the same, but one was on the top of the business building and the other was at the bottom of the business building.

This should still be affected by the number of players and the number of players.

"Tang Lin."

After registering, Tang Lin, who was about to take Liang Ting to leave, just walked to the door, and bumped into Chu Xing who was walking towards him.Judging by the makeup that he hadn't had time to remove in the future, it seemed that he came here in a hurry just after recording the show.

"Tang Lin, have you signed up yet?" Chu Xing grabbed Tang Lin's shoulders as soon as he arrived, and he was as familiar as ever.

"Are you coming to sign up now?" Tang Lin asked.

Chu Xing let go of him, took out five entries from his pants, shook them, and said with a smile, "Of course! How can I not participate in such a fun competition that can prove my strength?"

Chu Xing looked Tang Lin up and down thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "I thought you would be too late to sign up, after all, it's not easy to get a place for the competition."

Tang Lin raised his eyebrows, "Really? I thought you were too happy to be a celebrity chef, and forgot the registration time."

"Tsk tsk, buddy, you're not fun." Chu Xing shook his head, caught the glances of people passing by, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'd better go in and sign up, it won't be good if someone recognizes you then Yes, being a star is tiring."

Tang Lin: "..." I always feel that this person is showing off to him.

As soon as Chu Xing entered the hall, within a minute, Tang Lin heard noises coming from inside, mixed with the voices of many people calling Chu Xing's name.Liang Ting glanced over and said, "Is it still so famous as a celebrity chef now?"

A person in the room recognized Chu Xing, and then shouted, and the others surrounded him when they heard it, and Chu Xing was immediately surrounded by people. There were at least three floors inside and outside, and the popularity was unexpected. less than.

Tang Lin smiled and said: "The food show he participated in is still very famous in Linshui, so it will get more attention here. But after leaving Linshui Province, it's hard to say, don't worry about it Some don’t, it’s the right thing to improve your cooking skills.”

Seeing Liang Ting's yearning look, Tang Lin was really worried that the other party would run away and become a celebrity chef if he disagreed with him.The corner of Tang Lin's mouth twitched slightly when he thought of a woman dressed in women's clothing being asked where his teacher came from.

After registering, there was a delay. Tang Lin and Liang Ting didn't go home first. Tang Lin asked Liang Ting to drive the car to a shopping mall, bought some tobacco, alcohol and some skin care products, and then went directly to Liang Ting's parents. There.

Liang Ting's parents lived on the top of the mountain, where a wealthy area happened to be built. The car drove up from the driveway, and there were verdant trees on both sides, with mottled lights shining under the emerald green leaves. Against this background, the driveway looked special Romantic and beautiful.

The car drove all the way to the top of the mountain, and then saw a big iron gate, and there was a small room inside the big iron gate, which seemed to be a security booth.Liang Ting took out his ID card from the driver's seat. After the other party took it, he searched under the high-tech equipment in the house. After confirming that Liang Ting was a registered person in the villa, Tang Lin, who was visiting, finally asked Tang Lin to sign it. He opened the door and let them in.

There are only ten single-family villas in this villa area. There is still a distance between each villa, and the greenery inside is very good. Flowers and green trees can be seen everywhere. With the seasonal weather near the water, I am afraid it is a It's like spring all year round.

Liang Ting turned the car a few turns, and finally drove in front of a running water fountain, and stopped in front of a milky white single-family European-style building.Two men in black suits walked out of the house. The men took Liang Ting's car keys, got into the car, and drove the car into the parking garage.

"Master, let's go."

Liang Ting adjusted his clothes, he specially wore men's clothes today.Her long hair was tied behind her back with a dark ribbon. She wore a white shirt, black trousers, and a pale and handsome face. If she didn't know that the other party had a hobby of wearing women's clothing, Liang Tingduo under men's clothing would be a melancholy Noble son.

Tang Lin followed Liang Ting up the stairs, and the maid slowly opened the door from the house, and they entered a shiny hall in an instant.European-style chandelier, silver reflective marble floor, and a set of high-end sofa and coffee table with rose flowers.There were two people sitting on the sofa, a man and a woman, looking elegant and luxurious, about 50 years old.

From this point of view, they are Liang Ting's parents.

Tang Lin suddenly felt that Su Zhi's family was really close to the people. If he didn't know the house price in Xingfu Villa District, he would only think of them as ordinary people just by looking at their restrained decoration style.

After Liang Ting's parents saw Tang Lin, they stood up voluntarily. Liang Ting's mother smiled and pointed to the opposite sofa, "Mr. Tang, please sit down."

Tang Lin walked over and sat down.

The maid next to him poured a cup of tea for him, and Liang Ting's mother took a sip of the tea in front of her, and said with a smile, "I've always heard Liang Ting from our family talk about his master, and seeing him now, he looks younger than I imagined. .Our child's personality is not very good, please trouble Mr. Tang to take care of him on weekdays."

Tang Lin always felt that Liang Ting's mother's words were too official, and he couldn't decide the other party's attitude for a while, so he just responded without saying anything.

"I heard that Mr. Tang has also signed up for the culinary competition. If you need anything in the future, you can come to us. I hope that Mr. Tang will spend some time to teach our children. If he can participate in the culinary competition someday, my child and his father will also be able to participate in the cooking competition." Don't worry."

Liang Ting's mother put down the teacup, glanced at Liang Ting and sighed.

"I will." Tang Lin nodded.

After a few people said a few more words, Liang Ting's mother asked the servants to start preparing dinner.From Tang Lin's visit to his departure, Liang Ting's father's expression was mostly indifferent, showing no emotions, even when talking to Liang Ting, he still had the same attitude.

In front of his parents, Liang Ting's whole personality was restrained a lot, he lost his usual detachment, and became indifferent, with neither expression nor words.

After dinner, Tang Lin stopped bothering Liang Ting's parents, and took Liang Ting out of the villa after saying goodbye to each other.Obviously the other party's attitude is very friendly, but I don't know why, but I feel that the atmosphere is very depressed.

"Finally finished dealing with them." As soon as Liang Ting went out, he undid the top buttons of the neckline and stretched himself.

Tang Lin: "..."

It seemed that those who behaved elegantly and had a calm expression just now were fake.

Seeing Tang Lin's speechless expression, Liang Ting said bitterly, "Master, you don't know that my parents are simply models of the upper class. Our family is not considered rich, but we always like to punish those who have No, living like a robot is too depressing."

Sometimes Liang Ting wonders if it is because he and his brother have developed such slick personalities because of two parents who pursue perfection like robots.The old saying goes that everything goes against the extreme, doesn't it?

It seemed that Liang Ting's parents didn't seem to be opposed to Liang Ting's being a chef, so Tang Lin didn't worry anymore. He was really not interested in his family's kinship and history.

They went back to Liang Ting's house for one night, and the two returned to Beijing at noon the next day.

The mother-in-law knew that Tang Lin had signed up for the cooking competition, and also knew that the qualifiers were only a month away, so Tang Lin was not allowed to visit her in the hospital frequently, and Tang Lin was only allowed to practice cooking at home.

Tang Lin, a private restaurant, did not choose to close it just because he participated in the competition. Anyway, meeting customers who order food every week is actually a kind of training.Just like last time, suddenly a mixed race ordered a Turkish dish. This dish is a very local dish, but few people in some Turkish restaurants can cook it.At that time, Tang Lin searched a lot of information for this dish, so he also had a better understanding of Turkish dishes.

Knowing that he didn't know enough about foreign dishes, Mr. Tang started his hell training, and brought Liang Ting and Tang Yishui along.Compared to Tang Lin, who absorbed like a sponge, Liang Ting and Tang Yishui had a hard time studying and couldn't keep up with the progress.

Tang Yishui only peeped through the crack of the door, while Liang Ting probably knew the general recipes of some local dishes. It seems that the two still have a long way to go.

During the month of taking care of her mother-in-law and preparing for the qualifiers of the culinary art competition, Tang Lin really lived in the kitchen from dawn to dusk.

One week before the qualifiers, Su Zhi received a strange call.

Tang Lin took the freshly fried dish aside, took a bit with chopsticks and tasted it himself. It tasted good, but there should be room for improvement.

At this moment, Su Zhi knocked on the kitchen door and looked at Tang Lin with a smile.

"It's just in time, do you want to try the dishes I just made?" Tang Lin asked with a smile.

"it is good."

Su Zhi walked up to Tang Lin, and Tang Lin picked up some food with chopsticks and put it into Su Zhi's mouth. The sweet and spicy taste swept over his taste buds. There should be mashed potatoes in it. The taste of potatoes is very mild, but not too weak. People ignore.The sauce is very special, not salty or greasy.

"Did you research the new sauce?" Recently, Su Zhi will come over to help Tang Lin try dishes when he is free, including today's new sauce, which is already No. 20 that Tang Lin has researched.

Tang Lin smeared a little sauce on the edge of the plate with his fingers. The sauce was red in color, glowing red, and exuded a spicy aroma.

"It feels like something is missing." Tang Lin mused.

"If you can't figure it out, why not put it aside for now." Su Zhi suggested, and then continued, "The parents of the twins called me this morning and wanted to invite us to their house for dinner."

Twin parents?

Tang Lin couldn't remember who it was at once, but he soon thought of the two lost children he met when he went to Mr. Li's farm, and then thought of the quota for the competition that the children's parents asked Fan Liang to send over.

"Sure, I'll go change my clothes first." Tang Lin said as he took off his apron.

"I'll wait for you in the lobby." Su Zhi said.

Tang Lin quickly changed into clean clothes and came down. It was already around four o'clock in the afternoon, and it took more than an hour to drive to the twins' parents' place. It was really just in time for dinner.

When Su Zhi went out, he called Hua Shengmei and his wife. When the two arrived outside their house, they saw Hua Shengmei and his wife waiting there with their twins.

The twins still remembered Tang Lin and Su Zhi, and were very happy to see them. When they came over, they threw off their parents' hands and rushed to Tang Lin and Su Zhi's feet, hugging one each.

"Brother Pretty, give me a hug~"

The twins raised their heads together and looked at them with bright eyes. Tang Lin and Su Zhi looked at each other, squatted down and hugged them into his arms.

Mrs. Hua was apologetic, "I'm really sorry, they have been yelling since they knew you were coming, if you think they are heavy, just put them down and let their father hold them."

When Mr. Hua heard his wife's words, he couldn't help but wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.Although he is only in his 30s, the two children are well-raised on weekdays, and his body is much stronger than children of the same age. He feels uncomfortable holding both of them as a big man.

Su Zhi shook his head, "It's okay, it's not very heavy."

"I don't want my father to hug me, I want my brother." The child in Tang Lin's arms pouted in protest, as if he was afraid that his parents would take him away from Tang Lin, so he stretched out two pairs of chubby arms like lotus roots to encircle him. Tang Lin's neck rested on his shoulder, with an expression of neither listening nor looking.

The one in Su Zhi's arms also followed suit, making exactly the same movements and even the same expression, which made everyone laugh.

"Come in, come in, my wife will cook for you tonight, I hope the dinner suits your appetite." Mr. Hua hurriedly moved away and invited Tang Linsu to enter.

Hua Shengmei and his wife have been living abroad, and they only recently returned to the country for business. It happened to be the Spring Festival again, so they stayed for a while.The place I live in now is not very big, but it is very clean. The hall is full of children's toys, and the atmosphere of life is quite strong.

After hearing what Mrs. Hua said, I realized that because they were going back abroad next week, they wanted to invite Tang Lin and Su Zhi over for a quick meal now, to thank them for their kindness in helping to take care of the twins.

Mrs. Hua made ten dishes, and these ten dishes immediately filled the table to the brim.Tang Lin sat down and took a look. These dishes probably include three-color eggs, stir-fried duck cubes with fresh ginger, potted tofu, wild pepper and beef with venetian leaves... The soup is black chicken soup with yam and wolfberry. The soup is clear and light. The water flows straight.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly pampered Mrs. Hua also has such skillful cooking skills. Seeing the brightly colored and fragrant dishes makes people appetite.

Mrs. Hua also brought out a glass jar, the ingredients in it were all chopped into particles, and I couldn't tell what the ingredients were all at once.She stirred two small spoons on the seasoning plate for Tang Lin and Su Zhi, and said with a smile, "This is my mother's handicraft, an exclusive spicy sauce, you should try it, you will like it very much."

Tang Lin dipped a bit of it into his mouth with his chopsticks. It seemed that the red sauce was not spicy at all. It was salty and fragrant. It seemed that beef cubes were added. It felt very tasty when mixed with white rice.

Tasting a taste inside, Tang Lin's eyes lit up, and he suddenly raised his head and asked Mrs. Hua, "I wonder if you can tell me what ingredients are added in it?"

Mrs. Hua was taken aback for a moment, probably because she didn't expect him to ask this question, but then she thought that Tang Lin was going to participate in the cooking competition as a chef, and she was relieved.She said, "Of course, it's nothing."

Mrs. Hua counted fifteen ingredients in a row, and when Tang Lin heard one of the ingredients, his eyes were particularly bright.

A flavor that has been lacking in the sauces he made during this time, now he finally knows what it is!
