Chapter 157, Bring the Wine
The sun sets and the moon rises, and the stars rise.
In the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain, four people are sitting around the table and feasting...... Well, in fact, only Tang Fan and Ding Yiyuan are fighting a food war without any image, and the other two uncles are very gentle.
"Hiccup~ Seeming, the old man has not eaten your cooking so happily for a long time. Ding Yiyuan put down the last vegetable pot with satisfaction, and said to Wei Jianming with a full burp.
Wei Jianming still smiled like Maitreya Buddha, "It's been a long time since I've cooked such a good meal, and I have to thank the young master for giving me the opportunity." The last sentence was said to Tang Fan with a smile.
Tang Fan, who was also a little frustrated, waved his hand again and again, "Uncle Wei, don't say that, it's obviously me who is lucky enough to taste your craft, your craftsmanship is really amazing, compared with the dishes you make, I'm embarrassed to say that I'm a chef!"
Hearing this, Wei Jianming didn't say anything, but Old Man Ding smiled proudly, glanced at him, and said, "How about it, boy, if you are told to dump you for the teacher, it will be eight streets!"
Tang Fan nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, it is true that I am eight streets, I am convinced!"
His praise is from the bottom of his heart, this Uncle Wei not only has a shocking scene of cooking, but also the taste of the dish after it is made.
Tonight's meal, because he asked for 'simple and easy cooking', so the style of Wei Jianming's dishes was not surprising, they were all the simplest popular dishes, and many of them were also made by Tang Fan himself before.
For example, steamed hairy crabs, stewed soft-shelled turtle soup, fried river shrimp with leeks and so on.
However, although the style is the same, the taste of this dish is quite different.
After Tang Fan tasted them one by one, the most obvious feeling was...... Every dish made by Uncle Wei tasted more mellow and fragrant than what he made!
As a chef, Tang Fan just tasted it and understood what was going on, this is the taste of the ingredients themselves is brought out to the greatest extent!
Especially the dishes made by the two main ingredients together, Tang Fan made it himself, it can only be said that he can taste the respective flavors of the two ingredients, which can barely be called layered, but the dishes made by Uncle Wei seem to truly integrate the two flavors together, so that the two ingredients have you and me, I have you, and all the flavors explode on the taste buds.
It's something that a chef can do with a deep enough awareness of the ingredients!
What is called recognition, recognition is that the chef knows what oil temperature is most suitable for the ingredients to put in the pot, under what heat is the most suitable for the seasoning to taste, and under what circumstances can the taste of the ingredients themselves be promoted to the extreme......
In short, it's the chef who knows how to make the ingredients 'suitable'!
And Wei Jianming has done this, so that the taste of the ingredients can be promoted to such an extent, which can be regarded as a real 'make the best use of things'!
For this alone, Tang Fan was willing to bow down, and then thought about the scene where Uncle Wei in the kitchen seemed to be a famous calligrapher splashing ink wantonly, and he admired the five-body throw to the ground even more.
Moreover, although Wei Jianming only made one dish on each stove, it took less than an hour in total for these eight dishes, which was much faster than what he made himself, but thinking about it, his hands never stopped at all when he cooked, and they were seamlessly connected, and there was no difference between eight cauldrons and one cauldron, just eight different dishes fried at the same time......
If he can have this hand, he still has to worry about the problem of business?
Thinking of this, Tang Fan couldn't help but ask Wei Jianming curiously, "Uncle Wei, how did you manage to control eight cauldrons at the same time so easily and casually? I could open eight stoves at the same time before, but I only dared to work with one stove and one stove, compared to you, it was a world of difference, did you practice two purposes, fighting left and right?"
Wei Jianming smiled when he heard this, "Young Master, don't be envious, you are just in contact with the aura for a short time, and when you have been a martial artist for decades like me, you will be able to achieve my level after you have a keen sense of the six senses." ”
"Six senses are keen?" Tang Fan wondered.
"Well, the six senses refer to the eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, and consciousness, that is, your perception!" replied to him was Ding Yiyuan, the old man was quite conscientious as a master.
He continued to explain: "When the aura in your body slowly increases, your six senses will also be more and more keenly cultivated by the spiritual temperature, and if you strengthen your reflexes again, it is not impossible to achieve the level of 'quick eyes and quick hands' of Lao Wei." ”
"Oh"
As soon as the old man explained this, Tang Fan understood it, but he didn't have a good feeling in his heart, "Why do you have to 'wait for more aura' and 'wait for more aura'...... If you want to learn boxing, you have to wait for more aura! Now if you want to be a good cook, you have to wait for more aura!"
He looked at Old Man Ding, his face full of dissatisfaction, "I said Master, why do you have to wait for the aura for everything, didn't you say that the biggest feature of our exercises is speed, but I've been practicing for a day and a half, and I don't see how fast it is, your exercises won't be fake!"
Old man Ding's face immediately darkened, "Bastard! You know a fart! If it were another exercise, you might not even have entered the door of a martial artist now! You have only been practicing for a few days!
Tang Fan pursed his lips, "Then I can't wait until my beard is white to mix up a good martial arts......
"Cultivation, what we pay attention to is to step by step, accumulate steadily. Old man Ding spoke earnestly.
"I know, but I want to practice martial arts as soon as possible to explore the other world, the other world is so big, I want to see ......" Tang Fan looked helpless, "Master, isn't there any faster way?"
“…… Yes"
"Huh?"
Tang Fan raised his head suddenly, he just wanted to complain, but he didn't expect to get an answer, he immediately asked excitedly, "Master, do you really have a way?"
Old Man Ding nodded, "Do you know how to drink?"
Although he was a little unsure, Tang Fan still nodded, "Yes!"
"Lao Jin...... Go get out that bottle and get four more glasses. Ding Yiyuan's expression was very entangled, and he turned his head and commanded Jin Yi.
"Okay master, it seems that today we are going to touch the light of the young master. ”
Jin Yi agreed with a smile, and then took out an antique wine gourd and four white jade wine glasses from the large wooden boxes in the courtyard.
Looking at the wine gourd on the table that he had only seen on TV, Tang Fan's eyes were full of curiosity, and he guessed what kind of elixir jade liquid was contained in it, which could actually help him speed up the absorption of spiritual energy.
And Old Man Ding took the wine gourd quite painfully, looked at Tang Fan and said fiercely: "Boy, if you dare to disrespect the teacher in the future, see if the old man doesn't kill you!"
