Chapter 1426: A bowl of noodles
"Stepping" Yuan Zhou took a few steps upstairs, then pushed open his door, walked to the museum shelf that the carpenter helped rebuild, and took down a notebook with a black cover.
This notebook is very textured to the touch, a thick one, very soft to pinch, open it to see that it has been written.
And there are many such notebooks on the museum shelves in Yuanzhou.
It can be said that if the most valuable thing in Wuhai's studio is Wuhai's paintings, then the most valuable thing in Yuanzhou's room is these notebooks that record all the dishes that Yuanzhou has learned.
Not to mention how valuable these things are to a chef, even if you see these things so clearly, you will become a good chef.
You can imagine how detailed this note is.
And Yuan Zhou naturally knows his notes very well, so he didn't directly turn to the place where the noodles were recorded, and then took two photos with his mobile phone, and then directly used the > Chu Xiao quickly replied.
[Thank you, received.] Chu Xiao
[You're welcome.] Yuan Zhou
[mine has been sent, so please check.] Chu Xiao.
[Okay.] Yuan Zhou
After replying, Yuan Zhou went downstairs directly, and did not directly start to check the French food recipe sent by Chu Xiao.
After all, the upcoming dinner is the focus that Yuan Zhou needs to focus on now.
And in France, where Chu Xiao was located, it was nine o'clock in the morning, and at the beginning of the day, Chu Xiao turned around and began to go back to his office after getting the menu.
"This guy is still so strict. Chu Xiao took a cursory look at the dense records of noodles and couldn't help laughing.
Speaking of which, why Chu Xiao suddenly asked Yuan Zhou for advice on how to make noodles, it was really not because he wanted to spy on Yuan Zhou's cooking skills.
After all, if Chu Xiao wanted to know, he would fly back to Rongcheng directly to try it in person, after all, Chu Xiao had said that flying to Rongcheng in France was still very smooth.
Even if there is no direct flight and you have to make a transfer, it is a stopper.
Therefore, the reason why Chu Xiao suddenly asked Yuan Zhou for noodle making has to start a few days ago.
As an international gastronomic capital, France usually holds a lot of cooking competitions, large and small.
No, Chu Xiao participated in a Western-style catering competition a few days ago, yes, this competition is very strange, it is just a competition for the tricks of pairing meals in French food.
The competition may seem like a no-brainer, but it was actually held in honor of the famous French chef Sebastian Vettel in the 17th century.
The chef was a master chef and served in the restaurants he served hosted royalty and dignitaries.
But he died precisely because of his high standards and perfectionism, and only because the fish in one of his favorite dishes was not delivered when he received King Louis XIV.
And Vettel, who is extremely striving for perfection, can't bear such a mistake, so he directly chooses to kill himself with a sword to commemorate his pursuit of cooking.
This is definitely a werewolf, a little more than a ruthless man.
It is because of the existence of this werewolf and his quest for perfection that the French Union of Chefs held a competition about side dishes.
Meaning: Everything is perfect
Perfection is not just a main course, but perfection of everything, including the side dishes.
This is a competition with a long history and great influence, and Chu Xiao, as a celebrity chef who beats the younger generation of France, is naturally also participated.
There is no doubt that Chu Xiao's cooking skills, after having a life opponent like Yuan Zhou, are riding heifers to make faster progress, and with this first ranking, he will naturally be taken into Chu Xiao's bag.
But in the banquet after the awards, Chu Xiao heard a discordant voice.
It was a middle-aged uncle Gabriel, who won the second place, with a slender figure, a golden beard and blonde hair color beloved by the French, and a middle-aged man who looked mature and charming.
But under the appearance of wood, the words that come out of his mouth are not very good.
"Hey, this Chu actually won the first place again, this competition is officially meaningless. Gabriel said as he raised his glass to the people next to him.
The man next to him was naturally Gabriel's friend, but he was a little younger, his name was Julian, and he finished tenth in this competition.
"No, I think you can be the first. Julian said.
"Without Chu, I am naturally the first, but this Chu is not worthy of the name. Gabriel said smugly.
"Oh, is there something shady about this game?" said Julian, who was furious, disrespectful to either the chef or Vettel.
"Of course not, in honor of Vettel, there will be no shady scenes. Gabriel said.
"That's?" Julian wondered.
"It's not easy, black and white cows are good, if it's all black, squeezing out white milk, it's too strange. Gabriel said meaningfully.
Julian thought back to Chu Xiao's black hair and skin, and instantly got to Gabriel's point, nodded again and again: "That's true, he is a Chinese." ”
"A Chinese won the Vettel Memorial Award, which does not show that the Chinese chef is great, nor does it show the Chinese catering industry, it can only show that Chu is more talented in learning French cuisine, as for the ...... Chinese cuisine" Gabriel looked disdainful.
Apparently, Gabriel was reminiscing about the unsavory Chinese food he had eaten.
"Of course. Julien proudly puffed up his chest and said, "French food is the best, whether it's a main dish or a side dish." ”
"Is that so?" The conversation between the two suddenly inserted a clear male voice, this person was naturally Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiaobei didn't hear the words clearly, but he heard the last two sentences.
Yes, Chu Xiao spoke out directly, Chu Xiao is not a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch, or a person with a good personality.
"You are a local who can't cook as well as me as a foreigner, but you are complacent here? are you secretly rejoicing in your ignorance or stupidity?" Chu Xiao asked with an eyebrow.
"Oh, Chu, that's not what I meant. Gabriel was a little embarrassed, but denied it.
As for Julian, who was on the side, he didn't speak, but just stood back.
"What does that mean. Chu Xiao never saved face, and asked directly.
"I mean, our French food is broad and profound, just like the creamy mushroom exploding pasta you made today, and you admit that our French food is delicious, right?" Gabriel said evasively.
And Chu Xiao obviously didn't want to give him a chance to escape, so he said directly: "French food is naturally broad and profound, but you are narrow-minded. It's not that I learn French food because Chinese food is not good, but I don't, I don't want to comment on something you don't understand, I think you are rude, please apologize for your faux pas. ”
Gabriel's face was dark, but looking at Chu Xiao's serious face, he reflected on his ungentlemanly behavior in his heart, and still lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry." ”
And Chu Xiao's response was to nod his head and leave.
Although Gabriel finally apologized, Chu Xiao felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and after thinking about it for a day, he had this consultation.
ps: At the end of the year, it's snowing in Chengdu, and it's still very big, the cat's frozen paws can't be stretched out, everyone remembers the autumn clothes and pants to wear, it's really too cold, don't catch a cold, it's very uncomfortable to have a cold in winter~
