Stephen Chow is the executive chef of the Kyoto Hotel, now the Kyoto Hotel in China, but it is a place of pilgrimage to the earth.

Although Cheng Chuan, the guardian of the earth, and his group of goddesses have not appeared in the public eye for more than two years, they still can't stop everyone's enthusiasm for the Kyoto Hotel.

Therefore, when Gu Yuju's chefs knew that Li Ruogu had invited Stephen Zhou to come over as a guest, they were all enthusiastic.

didn't let everyone wait long, Li Ruogu took Stephen Zhou to Gu Yuju.

As soon as she saw Cheng Xiaoyue, Li Ruogu enthusiastically introduced her to Stephen Zhou.

"Brother Zhou, this is the pearl of my old friend Cheng Jiu for many years, Cheng Xiaoyue, a female genius who crisscrosses the business sea. ”

When Li Ruogu talked about Cheng Xiaoyue, he was also full of appreciation.

"It's a blessing. Stephen Chow nodded politely.

"Mr. Zhou, I have long heard Uncle Li say your name, saying that it is the world's cooking, you say second, no one dares to recognize the first. ”

Cheng Xiaoyue's praise of people is also very direct.

"I don't dare to take this seriously, the world, the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger, not to mention anything else, even the cooking skills of my superiors, I am ashamed of myself. ”

Stephen Zhou hurriedly waved his hand, signaling that he couldn't afford this beautiful word.

"No, Brother Zhou, you said that your cooking skills are not as good as your superiors? What are you kidding, are you talking about Mr. Cheng? Could it be that Mr. Cheng is also involved in cooking?"

Li Ruogu couldn't believe it, he knew that Stephen Zhou was not a humble person, on the contrary, he was a notoriously arrogant and arrogant god-eater.

"Not only in terms of culinary skills, Mr. Cheng is at the pinnacle of medical skills, Dan Dao, martial arts and cooking skills, and my generation is unforgettable. ”

Stephen Chow said with heartfelt nostalgia.

I think that back then, the first time he ate the food made by Cheng Chuan, he almost swallowed his tongue into his stomach, it was simply a delicacy in the world, and it made people forget to return.

It's a pity that later, Mr. Cheng was busy with other things, and he didn't have much chance to eat the food cooked by Mr. Cheng.

"In this way, Mr. Cheng is really an all-rounder, I don't know when I will have the opportunity to meet Mr. Cheng. ”

Hearing Stephen Zhou say this, Li Ruogu was also fascinated.

If they knew, the real Cheng Chuan was standing in front of them, and they didn't know how they would feel.

"Ahem, Uncle Li, I'm here this time to ask for your help. Cheng Xiaoyue has a lot of things to do and time is limited, so she decided to go straight to the point.

"Oh, what's wrong? Xiaoyue, what do you have to do, let's talk about it, it's all your own people. ”

Li Ruogu is very curious, Cheng Xiaoyue is famous for not asking for anything.

"That's right, Uncle Li, I want to beg you to take in an apprentice. Cheng Xiaoyue pushed Cheng Chuan in front of Li Ruogu.

"Apprentice? Who is this person? Xiaoyue, you know, I haven't accepted an apprentice for many years. ”

Li Ruogu glanced at Cheng Chuan, but didn't see anything special about Cheng Chuan.

After a haircut, his skin was fair, and he looked very clean, but his eyes were a little dull, and he seemed a little stupid.

"I know Uncle Li's rules for accepting apprentices, don't you bring him here to try. ”

Cheng Xiaoyue didn't say anything about Cheng Chuan saving her life last night, so as to avoid putting pressure on Li Ruogu and carrying out moral kidnapping.

"Oh, that's new, Brother Li, and I want to see how you take in your apprentices. ”

When Stephen heard that he was going to let Li Ruogu take in the apprentices on Monday, he suddenly became interested.

"Okay, Xiaoyue, you've got a problem for me. ”

Li Ruogu saw that everyone was in high spirits, and Cheng Chuan looked quite pleasing to the eye, so he immediately agreed.

Everyone walked to the back kitchen in an instant, and Li Ruogu's rules for accepting apprentices were actually very simple.

As long as you pass three levels, you can become his disciple.

This first level is to make a dish of Wensi tofu, and this level is a test of knife work.

Moreover, Li Ruogu's requirements are not low, a piece of normal tofu must be cut out of 3,000 shredded tofu before it can be passed.

Cheng Xiaoyue told Cheng Chuan about the general requirements, and Cheng Chuan was also very interested and wanted to challenge it.

Washing his hands and picking up a piece of white and tender tofu, Cheng Chuan picked out a big kitchen knife and held it in his hand, and his momentum changed in an instant.

Between the time he raised and fell, the kitchen knife was like a vigorous swimming dragon, quickly swimming on the piece of tofu, and soon completed the knife work.

Then, Cheng Chuan gently picked up the piece of tofu, walked to a transparent basin of water, and gently put the tofu into the basin of clear water.

In an instant, thousands of tofu shreds that were thin into the dragon's whiskers bloomed beautifully, each of which was the same length, the same thickness, and the same exquisiteness.

......

Everyone was stunned for an instant, even Li Ruogu and Stephen Zhou.

They can do it, but it's no surprise that they've been immersed in cooking for decades.

And the man in front of him, listening to Cheng Xiaoyue's meaning, was cooking for the first time.

The first time I cooked, I had such a level, I'm afraid that in cooking, I am really talented.

Li Ruogu was actually tempted at the moment when Wensi Tofu bloomed, but he was stubborn, and he still wanted to try the next two levels.

"Well, yes, next level. Li Ruogu was still an old man, so he didn't show surprise, and quickly cleaned up his mood.

The second level is to make a hot dish.

The ingredients are chosen at will, and the dishes are also picked at will.

Hot dishes are no better than cold dishes, and hot dishes are extremely particular about the heat.

Because as long as you go to a restaurant of a certain level, the ingredients are basically the same, and they are all the best.

At this time, the most obvious test of the chef's skills is the grasp of the heat of the hot dish.

Often the difference in taste is just in that millisecond.

Cheng Chuan subconsciously picked up the egg and a handful of leeks, to say that the heat of the hot dish is wonderful, the leek slippery egg can be extracted to the fullest.

Brush the pan, heat the pan, and reoil the pan......

Cheng Chuan's movements were as skilled as a master, and Li Ruogu and Stephen were hot for a while.

Cheng Chuan's operation is already a master, if it weren't for the hand movements, at the key node, it would be a little jerky, and the two of them would almost think that Cheng Chuan is not a big chef of the same level as them.

After a few moments, a steaming, tender and smooth scrambled egg with leek is ready.

Everyone looked at the appearance of the dish of scrambled eggs with leeks, and they couldn't help but swallow their saliva, it was simply a work of art.

Picking up the chopsticks, everyone wiped out the plate of scrambled eggs with leeks.

"Okay...... Stephen Zhou said three times in a row, and looked at Li Ruogu with envy.

"Well, that's good. Li Ruogu already regarded Cheng Chuan as his disciple in his heart, so naturally he couldn't be too high-profile, so he could only praise him in a low-key manner.

"Pretend, continue to pretend, Brother Li, if you pretend again, I will rob this apprentice from you." ”

It's just that Stephen Zhou, as an old friend of Li Ruogu, knows him well, knowing that he is already in a mood at the moment, and he is still pretending to be deep there, which is really unaccustomed to it.

"Ahem, cough, Brother Zhou, don't say it, the third level. "Li Ruogu, sure enough, has a strange temperament, even if he has already admitted that Cheng Chuan is his disciple in his heart, he still said the third level.

Moreover, the third level is even simpler, make a dish of braised pork, how delicious it is.
