Jiang Feng slept until night.

It's still late at night.

Not only physically, but also mentally, he needs to be fully rested. A night's excitement and high concentration are no less than the effect of a buffed braised pork, if Jiang Feng was still a little groggy before going to sleep and couldn't find the north, then after waking up, he could definitely be regarded as full of vitality and his brain was clear.

Yes, he is sober.

I also realized that grasping inspiration is not a race against time, and the faster you run, the tighter you will grasp.

You still have to have a plan, and you can't do it like at night, you only know how to do it, and you don't know how to finish it, and you don't know how to deal with the situation that the soup can only be poured into the pool.

After waking up, Jiang Feng felt a little hungry, so he got up and went to the kitchen to find something to eat. It's a pity that all the edible ingredients in the refrigerator have basically been ruined by him, leaving him with only an empty refrigerator and a kitchen cleaned by Wu Minqi.

There are noodles, but there are no eggs and green onions, and you can't even make a simple bowl of egg noodles.

Jiang Feng could only silently take out his mobile phone to order takeout, and specially told the delivery man not to knock on the door and make a phone call-Wu Minqi was sleeping, don't wake her up.

After ordering takeout, Jiang Feng sat on the sofa and brushed up the circle of friends.

It's another normal day.

Ling Guangzhao, as always, advertised in the circle of friends to promote Babaozhai's new dishes, Wang Hao did not update the circle of friends as always, the eldest aunt checked in the fitness meal as always, and Chen Suhua took the latest beautiful photos of Dahua as always-Dahua is fat again.

used to be a fat big pink pig, but in the past two years, under Chen Suhua's careful feeding, it has become a fatter, but it looks quite robust. Whenever everyone thinks that Dahua is fat enough and can't be fatter anymore, Chen Suhua can make him a little fatter.

In the first half of this year, Chen Suhua didn't know who to learn from, maybe he had seen too much of his aunt's circle of friends, and suddenly said that he wanted to raise pigs healthily.

Just when Jiang Feng was about to give a small thumbs up to Chen Suhua's circle of friends, he suddenly realized that he actually had an excellent place to find inspiration to practice cooking.

Li House!

The area of the Li house is large, the kitchen is also large, the basic kitchen utensils are available, and the most important thing is that the Li house has big flowers.

Freshly made and eaten.

You can also brush up on experience by the way.

Perfect!

Suddenly, Jiang Feng didn't order anymore, and began to edit the news for Chen Suhua, and after expressing his desire to go to Li's house to practice cooking in the past two days, the phone rang, and the takeaway was delivered, so he went to get the takeaway, and waited for Chen Suhua to reply to him the next day.

After eating takeout and having a full meal, Jiang Feng watched TV for a while, went back to his room at about 4 o'clock to sleep, and received a reply from Chen Suhua when he woke up.

Chen Suhua and Professor Li were very welcome to Jiang Feng's desire to practice cooking in the Li Mansion, and invited him to simply live in the Li Mansion for the past two days, saving the trouble of running on both sides. Jiang Feng felt reasonable, so he packed his clothes and dragged his suitcase to Li's house.

He hadn't been to the Li Mansion for more than half a year.

The house is still the same as before, big, empty, rich. It must be said that there is something different, and that is that Dahua does not stay in the pigsty and wander around the yard, as if patrolling his garden.

This year, all pigs can have their own gardens in the second ring road.

Countless social animals, including Jiang Feng, shed tears of jealousy.

The photo is actually not real, the big flower looks much bigger than the photo taken by Chen Suhua, maybe Chen Suhua opened a beautiful face to slim down the big flower when he took the photo.

Jiang Feng remembered that when Dahua first came to Beiping, it should be 300 catties and nodded, the old man and Grandma Jiang generally don't raise pigs very heavy, two hundred and seventy or eighty catties will be killed, in their opinion, this is the most suitable weight to eat.

Now the big flower, Jiang Feng thinks that it is 500 catties to say the least.

Really a super pig.

From the chef's point of view, Jiang Feng had already begun to think about what dishes to make with it. Of course, just thinking, he is still waiting for everyone to live to the end of his life to complete the hidden mission.

"Xiao Feng is here, ouch, I feel a lot more energetic after not seeing you for a long time. Chen Suhua, who came out of the main hall with a kettle, saw Jiang Feng, and hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically, and at the same time carefully looked Jiang Feng up and down.

"Lost weight. This is Chen Suhua's conclusion.

In fact, Jiang Feng has gained 10 pounds this year - he has eaten too well.

"You're not thin, but you look good now, and your spirit is really good. Jiang Feng said with a smile.

Hearing Jiang Feng say this, Chen Suhua smiled from ear to ear: "It's still yours kid who can speak, unlike my old Li, who only knows how to look at those periodicals, magazines and books every day, and can't even say a good word." ”

"Is Professor Li home now?" Jiang Feng asked.

"I went out early in the morning to see which of his students he was teaching at which university, and I couldn't tell which one it was. He's been happy lately, and there are people looking for something to do every day, unlike me, so I can only stay at home and let Dahua accompany me, right, Dahua. Chen Suhua looked at the big flower.

"Hmph. "The big flower actually really responded.

It's really a success.

Jiang Feng could only secretly surprise: "I'll put the luggage in the room first, don't make the staple food for Dahua today, I will make the pig food for the past few days." ”

"I know, Xiaofeng, what you make must be better than what I make, and Dahua is also happy to eat. Chen Suhua took the suitcase from Jiang Feng's hand, "I'll put it in the house for you in the line, I remember that you have to compete in two days, and now you must be in a hurry to practice." The room is the one next door to me and you, Professor Li, so I won't bother you. ”

Jiang Feng was really in a hurry, the semifinals were coming up in a few days, and he wanted to understand the thickening method before the semifinals.

It's not that you have to use it in the semi-finals, it's mainly that you practice for a few days and then be interrupted and run to compete for a day, Jiang Feng won't be able to find the feeling when he practices again.

For three days in a row, Jiang Feng lived in Li's house, practicing thickening almost non-stop from morning to night.

You don't even need to eat braised pork to keep yourself focused. The pleasure of being one step closer to success after each thickening was enough to make Jiang Feng more serious every time than the last time, and more focused every time than the last time.

Cycle after cycle, tirelessly.

Finally, at 9 o'clock in the morning on December 28, when there were still three hours left before the game, Jiang Feng found that he seemed to understand.

The most perfect thickening is the simplest thickening.

The purpose of thickening is to use the characteristics of starch in the gelatinized state of water absorption and adhesion and smooth moisturizing, so that the marinade is thickened, and the adhesion of the marinade to the raw materials is increased, so that the soup is thicker, and the color and taste are better.

But there is no difficulty, which is often the most difficult.

Just like chopping vegetables is very simple, it is difficult to remember, seasoning and heat are also very simple, but it is difficult to really do it well.

In the past few days, a large number of mechanical repetitive thickening made Jiang Feng understand for the first time why Zhang Sanfeng taught Zhang Wuji the swordsmanship in the Heaven and Dragon Slayer Chronicles, he would say that it was good to forget it.

It's good to really forget about it.

Forget the technique, forget Cao Guixiang, forget what you want to pursue, just remember the thickening, the original simple and repeated thickening over and over again.

Forget it, forget it.

The plenary meeting is over.

At this moment, Jiang Feng can proudly and firmly say to everyone loudly and firmly, I understand, I will thicken, it is completely mine.

"Xiao Feng, I remember you told me yesterday that your game today was at 12 o'clock at noon, and it's past 9 o'clock now, should you go?" Chen Suhua, who had been helping Jiang Feng keep an eye on the time, walked into the kitchen and found that there were still three bowls of steaming soup on the kitchen counter, so he was going to take these soups to the pigsty and pour them into Dahua's trough.

"It's time to go, Grandma Chen, I'll call a taxi now. I've been bothering you and Professor Li here these days, and I'll pack up my things and move home when I come back from the competition. Eh, the car was right at the door, so I'll go first. By the way, the innermost bowl of lean pork soup is freshly cooked, you can try it. Jiang Feng pointed to his latest enlightenment work and slipped away in a hurry.

"Why is this kid so polite to us? Before Chen Suhua could react, Jiang Feng was enlightened, shook his head with a smile, picked up the steaming lean meat soup and drank a sip of soup.

Chen Suhua's eyes lit up.

"Huh. ”

She has also eaten a lot of all kinds of soups made by Jiang Feng in the past few days, and they all taste very good. Chen Suhua and Professor Li are not people who pursue appetites, and their requirements for food are not very high, and correspondingly, even if they eat delicious food, they will not react much.

But this lean soup made her sigh a little.

Chen Suhua can eat it, this lean meat is not the same as what he ate two days ago.

She can't tell what the difference is, it looks similar, but this one is better than the previous one.

The texture is good, and the taste is good.

Exceptionally good.

Chen Suhua stood in the kitchen with a spoon like this, ate half a bowl of lean pork soup in one go when he had already eaten breakfast, and then burped with satisfaction and some disappointment.

It's a pity that the remaining half bowl is really uneating.

Chen Suhua walked towards the study with a lean meat trot, and happened to meet Dahua walking in the yard on the way, Dahua hummed at Chen Shuhua with some grievances, obviously because he hadn't eaten enough breakfast and wanted to come again.

Chen Suhua has raised big flowers for two years, so he naturally knows what big flowers mean.

"Piggy, let's wait for a while, and then grandma will go get you food. ”

Come to the living room and eat this half bowl of lean meat soup, don't eat it in the study, and I'll wipe it on the table when the time comes. Let me tell you that this bowl cooked by Xiaofeng today is very delicious and tasteful, you come and taste it, if you don't come out again, I will give it to Dahua!"

Professor Li reluctantly walked out of the study.

And then as soon as you eat it, you can't stop.

Chen Suhua smiled on the side: "What's the matter, I told you that it was delicious, and I was reluctant when I came out." ”

"You didn't do it, what do you have to do?" Professor Li was speechless.

Chen Suhua didn't hear it, and continued to sigh: "If you want me to say that Jiang Feng, this kid really has the talent to be a chef, I still remember the stomach porridge made by Xiaofeng when my father was still there in the first two years." At that time, I was afraid that I would not be able to eat all of it, and I felt a little disgusting when I ate one or two meals every day. ”

"If I were to eat this every day, I wouldn't be able to eat enough!"

"Beautiful you, Xiaofeng now has to make a reservation for many dishes a week or two in advance, and you still want to eat it every day. Professor Li smiled, "Did Xiao Feng go to the competition?"

"Hmm. Chen Suhua nodded, "I originally wanted to cheer for him, but he told me that there was no audience for their game." ”

"Hey, if only there were an audience, I'll find someone to set a banner and pull a banner to cheer for Xiaofeng. Chen Suhua looked disappointed.

Prof. Li: ......

I don't know why, he was suddenly glad that there was no audience for the cooking competition that Jiang Feng participated in.
