Chapter 603: Quietly watch you pretend

603

It turns out that people in the perfume country can still eat spicy, and they are quite able to eat it.

It's just that they don't seem to be very satisfied with the boiled fish in front of them.

"The fish is not tender enough, there are thorns in the fish, and the knife is not good. The flavor of peppercorns does not come out completely, and the pungent nature of peppers completely masks the flavor of peppercorns. Eric said, holding a piece of fish.

"Mr. Eric still knows anything about boiled fish?" Lin Siyi asked.

"My mother is a Michelin-certified five-star chef, since I was a child, I have eaten all the dishes made by my mother, my mother is not only proficient in our own cuisine, but also very familiar with Chinese cuisine, so basically, I have eaten all the eight major cuisines of China, and my favorite is Sichuan cuisine. This boiled fish happens to be my mother's best dish. Eric explained.

"I'm still thinking about how you first arrived, so that you can eat something different." Lin Siyi said slightly apologetically.

"Actually, if you told me before that you ordered boiled fish, then I wouldn't mind cooking a pot of boiled fish for you to enjoy, after all, a beautiful woman like you needs to eat better." Eric said.

"Then Mr. Eric, let's try it now!" Lin Siyi smiled, "The owner here knows me, and you can use all the ingredients here." I especially wanted to be able to feel what the poached fish from the perfume country tastes like. ”

"Do you really need to?" Eric asked.

"If you want to." Lin Siyi said.

"Then I'll be respectful and obey my fate!" Eric stood up and said with a smile, "If you have time, you can go to the kitchen with me to learn, and you can try to do it yourself at home in the future." ”

"Let's go together!" Lin Siyi stood up and said, "Go and see Mr. Eric's cooking." ”

"This is the beginning of the fight!" Zhao Chunliang said to Huang Yuan in a low voice.

"This time the partner is too strong, if we don't want to be manipulated, we can only try to show our own strength, and suppress the opponent, if Eric is just bragging, then this fish is to help us win their first shot." Huang Yuan also said in a low voice.

The five of them quickly arrived in the kitchen.

The chefs in the kitchen were stupid, they didn't expect that there would be guests who came to the kitchen to ask for cooking while eating, which was a great shame for the chef, if he hadn't seen the manager following on the side, it was estimated that the chef who cooked fish for Zhao Chunliang would have to take out a kitchen knife.

"Most of the boiled live fish are grass carp, but there are many grass carp bones, how to slice the fish meat at the same time, but also shave the fish bones, this is the key." Eric said as he grabbed a set of grass carp and put it on the table.

The teacher on the side immediately showed a stupid look, you know, this fish is alive, if you don't kill it first but throw it directly on the board, the toss is definitely not small, the light will knock over the bottles and cans on the table, and the heavy can also slap you in the face, so, before making fish, you have to kill the fish first, and first kill the fish in a place where there is nothing, and then take out the fish for processing.

The fish landed on the board, and as quickly as the chef expected, it fluttered, but as soon as it fluttered, suddenly a knife came down from above.

Bang.

A fish's head bounced aside.

Eric raised his hand, pressed it against the fish, and then raised the knife and fell.

The fish was cut straight through the middle, and the entrails were immediately revealed.

"You must not break the inside, otherwise some of them will be poisonous, and some will affect the taste of the fish." Eric explained.

"Everyone understands this, do you need to say it?" The chef said secretly disdainfully.

"The best way to separate the flesh from the bones is to cut through the tail with a horizontal knife." Eric pressed one hand on the fish, and with the other hand, he grabbed a knife and lightly slashed at the fish's tail, then sliced horizontally into it.

In three or two strokes, two pieces of fish meat were cut.

"It's basic, idiot!" Once again, the chef sneered disdainfully.

"The next thing is to pick the dark thorns, I don't know any special techniques, one by one, with a knife, because the fish meat is delicate, so this thorn is easy to touch." Eric said as he began to pick and stab with his knife.

It was a very patient job, and Eric did it very calmly, even too calmly.

It took more than ten minutes for Eric to finish picking the thorns, and then took a cauldron with a diameter of about one meter and put it on the gas stove.

Ignite the fire and fry the spices with oil, and the action is done in one go.

"It's not difficult to boil fish, it's nothing more than one thing, the heat." Eric held the huge iron pot in one hand and kept stirring, the flames scorching the iron pot like a fire dragon.

A spicy aroma spread quickly, and I don't know how long it took, Eric suddenly scooped up a large spoonful of broth and poured it into the pot, and then grabbed a few condiments and threw them into the country, covered the pot, and burned over medium heat.

"Why does it smell so strong?" The cook walked over to the pot, sniffed it, and asked, puzzled.

"Fire." Eric said two words lightly.

"But I also use fire!" The chef said suspiciously, "The fire tastes, I use a bigger fire than you, you are just medium heat." ”

"The heat is not a fire, this chef, you shouldn't be in the Michelin-starred chef yet, right?" Eric asked with a smile, although he looked gentle, but he couldn't hide the taste of contempt inside.

"Michelin? That's the highest judging standard for the chef grade, where can it be so easy to get in. The chef shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I'm a two-Michelin-starred chef." Eric smiled modestly.

"What? Two Michelin stars? How is it possible, you are so young! The chef shook his head in disbelief, as if two Michelin stars were a rare thing.

"My mother is a five-Michelin-starred chef, and I have been exposed to a lot of cooking methods since I was a child, so... In fact, many times cooking is the same as being a person, mastering the heat, and ordinary ingredients can also become peerless delicious, such as the current one. Eric said, lifting the pot.

A rich fragrance quickly spread, and Eric picked up the cauldron of at least one or twenty catties with one hand, and then easily poured it into a large basin.

"Only one last step away." Eric skillfully poured the oil into the pot, then added green onions, ginger, garlic and other things and stir-fried for a few seconds, then picked up the pot and poured the oil into the previous basin.

There was a sound of cheering, and the rich fragrance before was once again on a higher level.

"That's enough!" Zhao Chunliang said in a low voice.

"But it's pretty handsome, don't you think?" Huang Yuan said.

"Oh? Do you like cooking? Zhao Chunliang asked.

"I think men who can cook are handsome, especially for their own women." Huang Yuan clasped her hands to her chest and said, "I used to want to marry a chef, really, I didn't lie to you." My ex-boyfriend also cooks a good dish, otherwise I wouldn't have been captured by him. ”

"Oh!" Zhao Chunliang nodded thoughtfully.

"Give it a try." Eric stepped aside and motioned for the attendees to try the food.

The restaurant chef who was watching rushed over as quickly as possible, one holding a pair of chopsticks, and couldn't wait to put the fish in his mouth.

"It's delicious!!" The chef, who had been despised Eric's eyes lit up and shouted.

"I'll try it too." Lin Siyi took a piece of fish meat with a pair of chopsticks and put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times, and said with a smile, "Sure enough, it tastes good, it's better than what the chef made just now." ”

"It's really better than me!" The chef nodded and said, "Two Michelin stars, it's really amazing, this casual ingredient can be so delicious, I really admire it!" ”

"Is it really that good?" Huang Yuan stepped forward curiously.

"I'll clip a piece for you." Lin Siyi picked up a piece of fish, blew it patiently a few times, and then sent it to Huang Yuan, who opened his mouth and bit the chopsticks directly.

"Slow down, and it won't be gone!" Lin Siyi scolded with a smile.

"You have to take a big bite to eat, it's good, it's good, this fish is really good, it tastes good!" Huang Yuan said while eating.

"It tastes good, but I always feel like something is missing." Zhao Chunliang's voice suddenly sounded, and he saw Zhao Chunliang holding a small bowl and chopsticks, and said while eating fish in a huff.

"What's missing?" Eric frowned slightly and said, "I'm sure I didn't put any of the spices in it. ”

"Soul less!" Zhao Chunliang said seriously, "This is a soulless fish!" ”

"A fish without a soul? What do you mean? Eric asked, puzzled.

"Every living creature has a soul, this fish was cut off by your head with a snap of the knife, and the death is unknown, how sad it is, such a pathetic fish makes a dish, full of the anger and sadness of the fish, not good, not good!" Zhao Chunliang shook his head and said.

"Are you kidding Mr. Zhao!" Fran on the side burst out laughing and said, "It's just fish, it's just human food, what kind of soul do you want?" ”

"Do you know, in many places, before killing the cow, you have to listen to music for the cow, so that the cow can be killed in a very comfortable environment, every piece of meat, there is the soul of the cow, such beef, is the top beef, not like the general slaughterhouse, directly stab the throat of the cow, the cow's muscles are all tight, such meat is not tender at all, the same is true of the fish, so, although you have succeeded in cooking, but only successful in cooking, you have completely failed in shaping the soul of the dish, This is soulless boiled fish, and what I eat in my mouth is only the taste of the ingredients, not the taste of the soul. Of course, for ordinary people, it's good to be able to eat this, I shouldn't ask too much, who calls me a very soulful chef myself. Zhao Chunliang said with emotion.

Although Huang Yuan on the side didn't know what Zhao Chunliang was talking about, according to her understanding of Zhao Chunliang, the cliffs that Zhao Chunliang said were all nonsense, and he had only one purpose for nonsense.

Pretending.

Huang Yuan really wanted to tell others that Zhao Chunliang was going to start pretending to force everyone to let go, but considering that there were so many outsiders, Huang Yuan still closed her mouth and quietly watched Zhao Chunliang pretending to be forced.
