【Guangzhou Yangquan Restaurant】Born with a bodhisattva heart, Wren pasted the soul of the live chicken that was about to be slaughtered, and did not bring pain to the live chicken under his superb knife skills, and this rising star in the chef world is growing rapidly.

In the dark training ground of the dark cuisine world, there was the sound of a leather whip hitting the skin from time to time, and a child who was forcibly taken away by the dark cuisine world was enduring high-intensity training under the leather whip, they did not cry, because crying would attract more leather whips, and a little boy with a handsome face among them was gritting his teeth and exercising his cooking skills again and again, this boy's name was Lan Feihong.

There are countless talented chefs who are striving to reach the pinnacle of the culinary world, and you can imagine how these talented chefs scattered all over the country will have a huge impact on the culinary world in ten years.

Of course, Shao'an is also one of these countless talented chefs, and at this moment, he wants to prove his worth with his cooking skills in front of top chef Abbe.

The staff in the back kitchen downstairs gathered together, today is the first day for Master Abbe to accept apprentices, of course everyone is curious about what kind of ability this person has to make Master Abbe make such a decision.

Shao An can only be regarded as a quasi-disciple of Master Abbe now, and whether he can officially worship the door wall depends on whether his cooking can impress Master Abbe.

"Shao'an, are you ready for the introductory test?" Master Abbe asked softly.

"Of course it's ready and I can't wait to get started. Shao'an's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

The recipe for mapo tofu was pulled out of Shao'an's head, and the recipe listed the condiments and side dishes needed to make mapo tofu.

1 piece of tofu, beef, 2 cloves of garlic seeds, green onion, oil, salt, bean paste, tempeh, soy sauce, peppercorn noodles, corn starch, broth.

Shao'an, who had already prepared the materials, did not delay any time, and he immediately began to make mapo tofu.

Mapo tofu is based on tofu, the main ingredient tofu has naturally become Shao'an's primary goal, the most perfect treatment of tofu is undoubtedly to cut a piece of finished tofu into cube pieces of basically the same size and specifications, which seems to be an easy thing, but the texture of tofu is soft and easy to break in the process of cutting, so this step still has requirements for knife work, but more important is the environment for cutting tofu, Shao'an chose to cut tofu in water.

Carefully held the prepared whole tofu in the palm of his hand, gently dipped the palm holding the tofu into the wooden basin filled with water, the free hand held a sharp knife aimed at the tofu in the water, Shao'an's wrist holding the knife was unusually stable, there was no trembling in the process of cutting the tofu, Shao'an, who was highly concentrated, meticulously completed the cutting of the tofu, he smiled at the kitchen staff who were paying attention to him, and then released the palm holding the tofu under their gaze, and the intact rot that had remained intact in the water suddenly disintegrated after losing the support of the palm, more than 20 cube small tofu blocks of almost the same size slowly fell to the bottom of the wooden basin.

After witnessing this scene, the staff in the back kitchen were sincerely amazed by Shao'an's underwater tofu cutting skills.

Shao An did not rush to pick up the small tofu pieces that fell into the bottom of the wooden basin, the water in the wooden basin is salted with salt, and after soaking the fresh tofu in the salt water, on the one hand, it can eliminate the beany smell of the tofu itself, and on the other hand, it can also make the taste of the tofu more refreshing.

After completing the processing of the main ingredient tofu, Shao'an carried out the next step in an orderly manner, lit the firewood under the stove, stepped on the bellows, the flame under the stove burned, and the black iron pot was put on the shelf, and the steps of burning the pot began with the help of this blazing fire.

The empty big iron pot rose white smoke under the scorching fire, which is the sign that the pot is completed, the right hand picked up the big spoon, and dashingly scooped out half a spoonful of fragrant clear oil from the oil tank beside him, Shao An tilted the big spoon and sprinkled the clear oil in the spoon evenly into the big iron pot that was completed by the pot, and snorted! The cold oil and the hot pot met, and a stream of oil smoke rose from the iron pot.

As the clear oil heated, Shao'an officially began to make mapo tofu.

Tempeh, red pepper and bean paste, known as the soul of Sichuan cuisine, were poured into the hot oil together, and a spicy fragrance suddenly came out of the iron pot, and the naughty spicy taste was unreasonable into people's nostrils.

"Shao'an, next to the oil tank, there is our special 'Kikuxia sauce' from Juxialou, you can try to add a little bit to it, I believe that the addition of 'Juxia sauce' will definitely make your spicy sauce more perfect. Master Abbe nodded.

Obviously, Shao'an's good basic skills and meticulous grasp of details just now made Abbe extremely satisfied, which made Master Abbe naturally substitute himself into the role of a master.

"Thank you, Master, I understand. Shao An could naturally sense this subtle change, and he immediately changed his answer.

"Mother, how is the stupid Shao'an's cooking skills!" "The young little Jinling couldn't see Shao'an's doorway at all.

"So far, Shao'an has done quite well, and he has already finished the first 'spicy', which is quite high!" Abbe explained to his daughter.
