Chapter 314: The Heart Belongs
In order to protect guests from the fumes of cooking, the kitchen is located in a separate room next to the pond. Above the room is a transparent canopy, all four walls are full of vents, and several huge range hoods are embedded in the vents, forming a more unique kitchen.
Due to the booming business, the kitchen was built very wide, with more than 500 square meters. More than a dozen cooks in overalls are busy. the sound of a spatula hitting an iron pot; the sound of boiling oil in the pan; The chef's conversational voices, intertwined to form a unique picture that can only be seen in the kitchen.
"Brother Yang, this is our kitchen, everything is ready, just waiting for you to make a move." The big python smiled: "These chefs are all old men who followed me before, absolutely reliable and obedient, if you need to give me an order, you can just give me an order." After speaking, let a young chef take all the prepared ingredients, condiments, seasonings, spices and other necessary items and place them next to the stove, and it is very convenient to reach out to Yang Yi.
Yang nodded and said, "Okay, you go and greet the guests!" I got it done in no time. When he entered the kitchen, he took a look, and most of the more than ten chefs were a little impressed, when Lao Tzu of the python was still there, he had taught these chefs some practical skills and the details of making certain dishes, and he was quite prestigious in this kitchen.
"Isn't this Brother Yang?" A middle-aged chef who was about fifty years old saw Yang Yi's eyes lit up, grabbed Yang Yi, and said in surprise: "Brother Yang, why are you here?" ”
Yang Yi touched Tianxiu and handed it to the other party, and said with a smile: "Bring a foreign friend to experience life today, you are busy with yours, don't worry about me." ”
"Got it!" The chef nodded, Yang Yi had instructed him on his cooking level before, and he should have asked about the problems encountered in cooking, but now it was the time to be busy, and it was inconvenient for him to talk to Yang Yi too much, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go and get busy first, Brother Yang can just give me an order." ”
The ingredients on the stove are all freshly beaten by him, in addition to a few turtle doves, there are also a few catties of rabbit meat that have been chopped into small pieces, and there are more than a dozen crucian carp, all the previous procedures have been completed, Yang Yi only needs to cook.
Putting the iron pot on the table, he had just ignited the fire, and suddenly found that Ruth was standing next to him at some point, watching his movements with a happy face.
"Why doesn't Miss Ruth rest outside?" Yang Yi picked up the apron and put it on, and said with a smile: "Although there is a range hood in the kitchen, it will still make you smell of oil smoke." ”
Ruth put the coat that Yang Yi had taken off earlier on her shoulders and said with a smile: "Aren't I experiencing life?" What's a little bit of fume? What's more, I'll watch you cook later, and by the way, I can learn a few tricks back, and then I can let those cooks in my family learn to learn. ”
Yang Yi threw away the cigarette butt and said with a smile: "Since Miss Ruth likes to cook so much, I will trouble to help by the side later." As he spoke, he poured the oil into the pot, picked up the cut dried chili pepper segments, and grabbed a handful of peppercorns with the other hand, ready to do it at any time.
"It looks like it's spicy, Mr. Yang, what are you going to do?" Ruth has not been in the Dragon Kingdom for too long, she has been here a few times before, she has eaten hot pot once at a street stall, and drank several bottles of mineral water spicily, she almost has a fear of chili peppers, but that fragrant and spicy feeling always makes her want to stop.
"There are a lot of special dishes from all over the Dragon Country." Yang Yi paid attention to the temperature of the oil in the iron pot and patiently explained: "Among them, Sichuan cuisine is famous for its spicy. Most of the dishes in Sichuan cuisine are mainly spicy, and it is precisely because of this that many people who are not used to eating spicy love and hate. After a pause, he said: "I now make this dish called spicy bone turtledove, and when the oil temperature is boiled to a certain extent, put the dried chili pepper segments and Sichuan peppercorns in the pot, and then put the turtledove meat that has been chopped into small pieces." ”
Ruth nodded as if she didn't understand beside her, and watched Yang Yi put the peppers and peppercorns into the pot according to the procedure he said. After coming into contact with the hot oil, there was a bang, and the fragrance came to the face.
"Chili peppers and peppercorns can't stay in the hot oil for too long, so you need to pour the turtledove meat into the pot immediately after putting it in the pot." Yang Yi is like the host of a TV food channel, explaining and cooking at the same time: "Turtledove meat is mixed with a small amount of cooking wine with starch seasoning before, and it can be used after leaving it for a while and waiting for the seasoning to taste." ”
The aroma of chili pepper and rabbit meat in the oil pot was already obvious, Yang Yi kept adding various seasonings to the pot, and when all the turtledove meat was stir-fried until it was golden brown, Yang Yi turned off the stove and said at the same time: "Bring the plate!" ”
Hearing this, Ruth hurriedly handed over a large plate and said, "It smells so good!" Does Mr. Yang know how to cook anything? ”
Yang Yi put aside the spicy bone turtledove meat, pulled up his apron and wiped his sweat, and said with a smile: "Most of the dishes will do, but they are limited to some more common dishes." I don't know anything about the expensive dishes in those star hotels. "Since he was a child, his family conditions were not good, and during the time when he was interested in cooking, there were no expensive ingredients for him to try to make. As a result, most of the dishes he knows are very common.
Ruth shook her head and said, "I've heard that in the Dragon Kingdom, the real good taste comes from roadside stalls everywhere, not from star-rated hotels. Those hotels will only follow the script, according to the traditional accepted methods, not only do they have nothing new, but even the taste is not different. For example, if you eat steak in the UK, you can eat steak in a star hotel in other countries. ”
Yang Yi smiled when he heard this: "According to what you mean, the roadside stalls all over the Dragon Country really represent the taste of the Dragon Country cuisine?" Yes, Miss Ruth is different from ordinary people, and she has some knowledge. Miss Ruth should know that the food culture of the Dragon Kingdom is the largest in the world, up and down for 5,000 years, from ancient times to the present, all kinds of delicious dishes and snacks are endless. But until now, those representative delicacies can only be eaten at street stalls in the streets and alleys. All because in recent years, our Dragon Kingdom has begun to develop towards European and American countries. After a pause, he said: "I don't think it's bad for me to introduce various cultures from other countries, but I shouldn't throw away the things that my ancestors have handed down." ”
Speaking of this, he smiled again: "Forget it, don't talk about this." The next dish is called the Living Water Rabbit. Living water means that the rabbit meat can be turned off two minutes after it is put into the pot, and the tender rabbit meat can be slowly cooked with high-temperature oil and water. There is not much attention to in this dish, and the place to pay attention to is the time and the mastery of the heat. ”
Next, Ruth watched Yang Yi finish a few dishes in the kitchen, and admired Yang Yi's cooking skills even more.
After all the dishes were served, except for Chen Fangyan, everyone else got up and waited for Yang Yi. He hasn't sat down yet, and no one else will sit down. It's a bit like folk tradition that the oldest people don't sit down, and the others are not qualified to sit down first, otherwise it will be considered disrespectful.
Yang Yi didn't care too much about these details, and said with a smile after sitting down first: "Everyone is welcome, I said that I will have a treat today, just eat, if it is not enough, I will go and get some other dishes!" Scar, what are you doing in a daze? Move your chopsticks! He never asked the name of the young man with Scarface, he simply called Scar, which was simple and easy to remember.
Hearing this, the scar-faced young man hurriedly picked up a big bowl of rice, and began to eat without saying a word. The same was true of several of his men, like starving prisoners who had just been released from their cells.
"Teacher Chen, Brother Yang's cooking tastes okay, right?" The python felt that Chen Fangyan had been frowning all the time, and just happened to see him put a piece of turtledove meat in his mouth, and asked with a smile.
In the mouth of turtledove meat, fragrant, tender, smooth, fresh, numb, spicy, and other flavors spread throughout the taste buds, Chen Fangyan couldn't help but praise in his heart, but his face pretended not to care: "So-so!" The food is slightly better than the last time I visited! ”
Yang Yi didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of person who didn't have the right mouth, so he opened a bottle of beer and drank a bottle with the python, and then said: "The turtle dove is delicate, nutritious, and delicious. It can nourish qi and replenish deficiency, strengthen muscles and eyes, and even nourish the skin. Miss Ruth can eat a little more, and you are guaranteed to be more and more beautiful! ”
"Really?" Ruth said a little disbelievingly: "But I heard people say that eating too many chili peppers is not good for your health." Having said that, she couldn't help but put an extra piece in her bowl, apparently believing Commander Yang's words.
Chen Fangyan next to him had no chance to get closer to Ruth, and after hearing Yang Yi's words, he hurriedly sandwiched a piece of fish meat and put it in Ruth's bowl, and said with a flattering smile: "Ruth, don't you like to eat fish?" Mr. Yang's craftsmanship is really good, the taste of this fish is fresh and tender, you try it! ”
"Mr. Yang, why don't you just drink and eat?" Ruth smiled at Chen Fangyan, and immediately turned her attention to Yang Yi, sandwiched a piece of rabbit meat for him, and said with concern: "Drinking on an empty stomach hurts your body." Eat and drink at the same time! ”
Yang Yi ate the rabbit meat unceremoniously, and said with a smile: "I thought that nobles were all domineering and domineering, but since I met Miss Ruth, it has completely subverted my opinion. Miss Ruth's appearance is as beautiful as a blooming flower, and her heart is as pure and kind as a white cloud. Being able to be friends with Miss Ruth has been a blessing in my life, but unfortunately I am only a small poor security guard in Yinan Middle School, and I am afraid that I am not qualified to climb high. ”
"Mr. Yang is really joking!" Ruth's pretty face blushed slightly: "Making friends has nothing to do with academic qualifications, property, etc." What's more, I also want to have more contact with Mr. Yang so that I can ...... So I can learn more cooking skills from Mr. Yang! ”
Yang Yi laughed and said, "Don't dare to be, Miss Ruth is interested, I can teach you at any time." However, my working hours are not regular, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to find suitable opportunities. ”
"It's okay. I'll leave you my phone number and call me when Mr. Yang is free. Ruth smiled sweetly: "I just hope that Mr. Yang won't bother me!" ”
The two flirted like a couple, and Chen Fangyan next to him was about to pop out when he saw it, and he couldn't wait to strangle Yang Yi and replace him.
And the big python and Scar who have not spoken next to them can see that this Miss Ruth from the United Kingdom clearly has an absolute good impression of Commander Yang, and Chen Fangyan is at best a trickster.
