Chapter 288: The Most Perfect Dish
Ah Gou cautiously drove the speedboat into the vicinity of Ap Lei Pai Beach, which extends into the sea south of Ap Lei Chau, and was relieved to see the dark coastline.
It was very dangerous to sail in the dark without lighting and charts, even if he had been out on a fishing boat with his father since he was a child, and this trip made him break out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, with the constant lights of the power plant as a guide, he managed to reach his destination.
Teng Teng!
The speedboat engine screamed a few times and turned off.
Why is there no gas at this point?
Ah Dog fumbled for the oil drum, and suddenly, a dazzling light hit the bow of the boat, stinging him from opening his eyes.
"This is the Xianggang Marine Police ......"
On the north side of Hong Kong Island, Fei Nan, who was sitting in a taxi, looked at the dog surrounded by the marine police on the map, and was a little surprised.
Fei Nan wrote that Duck Lei Zhou was just a casual one, but he didn't expect this kid to really go there.
However, with his cursor, Fei Nan also remotely noticed that there had been a close patrol by marine police in the vicinity of Ap Lei Chau since before he paid attention.
Is it repairing submarine cables, or is it investigating what happened in the bay that night? Or both?
Fernan wasn't sure, he just knew that he wouldn't go any closer to the waters until he found out the details of those two monsters.
Jingle bells!
The phone rang, and after Fei Nan connected, Xu Xi's voice came from the other end.
"We have a situation to report to you. ”
Have you made an eye on what they are investigating?
"Wait for my call. ”
Fei Nan hung up the phone first, then pulled up the map and looked at it.
He asked Xu Xi and Ruolan to investigate something related to "happiness", and after fighting with the boss who was suspected of the plot line, he was very sensitive to the relevant information of this plot line, and his vigilance was also mentioned at the highest.
The map shows that Xu Xi and Ruolan's cursors are in a remote factory in Tuen Mun, and there are no people around.
Moreover, both of them have normal cursor colors, which means that they are not hostile and can rule out threats for the time being.
dialed Xu Xi's phone again, and Fei Nan said briefly: "Come to Wan Chai to find me." ”
"Good. ”
Xu Xi also replied briefly, didn't ask more, and took the initiative to hang up the phone.
Rubbing Xiaobai's head, Fei Nan decided that it would be better to go to see Xu Xi alone later, just in case.
......
"Master, you can rest for a while! if you continue like this, your body will not be able to hold on. ”
In the back kitchen of Manhan Building, Zhao Gangsheng couldn't help but persuade him.
"Yes, Master Ou. ”
The assistant cook on the side also persuaded: "The body is important, the time is still early, and it is in time." ”
Ou Zhaofeng also knew in his heart that this was indeed the case, so he put down the kitchen knife, got out of the way, and said to the cook, "You can do it." ”
The assistant chef is the second chef seconded from Lu Yulou, and his skills are not bad, so when he heard this, he directly stepped forward to pick up the kitchen knife and prepare to make dishes.
"Deal with geoduck first. ”
Ou Zhaofeng said a word, and Zhao Gangsheng graciously took the chair, put it behind him, and helped him sit down.
The cook scooped the geoduck out of the ice water, shelled it and processed it.
"Master drinks water. ”
Zhao Gangsheng took the thermos cup and handed it to Ou Zhaofeng.
Ou Zhaofeng reached out to pick it up, but he didn't grasp it steadily, and the thermos cup almost fell to the ground.
Zhao Gangsheng's eyes were quick, he grabbed it, and put the thermos cup back on the table: "Master, you better rest for a while before drinking." ”
Shaking his head, Ou Zhaofeng said regretfully: "It's not okay to be old if you don't accept it!"
"Master, you're just too tired, just rest more. ”
Zhao Gangsheng stayed in the Manhan Mansion for a few days, and was already convinced by Ou Zhaofeng's cooking skills, and under the care of him before and after the saddle, Ou Zhaofeng, who was at odds with his daughter all the year round, rarely felt a little family happiness, and he also regarded him a little as his own, and began to teach him a few hands intentionally.
"Ah Sheng, do you know how to make a perfect dish?"
He suddenly asked.
"The perfect dish?"
Zhao Gangsheng thought for a while: "With the best cooking skills, of course you can make the most perfect dishes?"
"It's not that simple. ”
While staring at the kitchen help, Ou Zhaofeng took the time to teach Zhao Gangsheng: "Let me give you an example, the dish I make now is called white boiled geoduck, you know what it means, right?"
"Is it scalded with boiling water?" Zhao Gangsheng still knows some basic cooking terms.
"On the surface, it's true, but there's a lot of truth to it. ”
"Blanching is one of the best techniques of Cantonese cuisine, which mainly highlights the freshness of the ingredients. Our Cantonese cuisine pays attention to the meat taste, the dish has the taste of vegetables, and strives to return the authenticity of the taste of the ingredients. ”
"It looks really simple, it's just blanching the ingredients with white water, but how to choose the ingredients? Blanching them with white water or broth? How high is the temperature of the ingredients? How long do different ingredients have to be blanched? These are all exquisite, without a few years of hard work, it is impossible to do it handy. ”
After speaking a few words, Ou Zhaofeng's arm muscle fatigue eased a little, then he reached out and took the thermos cup, took a sip of tea, spit the tea back into the cup, and continued: "Take this boiled geoduck as an example, this dish is actually very simple, as long as the geoduck is cut into thin slices, scalded in water, and dipped in water, you can eat it." But without ten years of hard work, it is absolutely impossible to cook this dish. ”
"First of all, the geoduck, depending on its size, the thickness of the slice will be adjusted accordingly. Uniform thickness is the most basic, the thickness should not be too thick, otherwise it will be difficult to chew, and it cannot be cut too thin, so that it will not be crispy. ”
"When passing through the water, the time must be accurate, from entering the water to serving on the plate, to serving the table, and being eaten by the guests, every second must be calculated accurately, and try to ensure that the ingredients reach the most perfect aging state when they are eaten, so that it can be regarded as the best braised geoduck. ”
After a pause, Ou Zhaofeng sighed: "Therefore, in order to present a perfect dish, you need not only a good chef, but also a good team and a good diner." ”
"The perfect dish requires the joint efforts and tacit understanding of everyone, and the chef will not cook for an extra second, which will affect the taste of the ingredients. The vegetable servant will also ensure that the food is served quickly, so that the natural aging time of the dish is just right before it is served. The service staff will take care of the diners and make them feel good and have a good appetite. Diners will not be distracted by other things, and choose the timing of chopsticks according to the actual situation of the dish to ensure that the ingredients reach the most perfect aging state when they enter the mouth......"
"It's a natural state, everything is just right, and it naturally presents the most harmonious and perfect appearance of a dish, the unity of nature and man. ”
A hint of yearning flashed in Ou Zhaofeng's eyes: "I've only heard my master talk about it, but I never knew what it was like. ”
"My biggest wish in life is to make a perfect dish. ”
Sighing, Ou Zhaofeng said gloomily: "This competition may be the last chance in my life to make the perfect dish, and I definitely can't miss it." ”
