Chapter 2 Pan-fried duck breast

Hearing the sound of the system's task prompt, Li Xiaoran couldn't help but feel speechless for a while. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Don't make trouble with the big brother of the system, I want to buy this store, but I don't have any money.

Although I have saved a lot of savings over the years, and I have 30,000 or 40,000 euros in my card, it is still completely insufficient compared to this restaurant.

Not even a fraction of a fraction.

Even if the restaurant is not very large, even if no one takes over the position of head chef, it will close down in two days due to downgradation or even cancellation of ratings.

But it's not the starting price that Li Xiaoran can pay.

"Is the condition of the restaurant really that bad?" Looking at Planck, Li Xiaoran asked.

There is no penalty for not being able to complete a mission.

But if it is completed, Li Xiaoran knows that there will definitely be a reward for completion.

Being able to become a good chef in such a short period of time, it can be said that the reward for completing the task accounts for 90% of Li Xiaoran's current strength.

So even if there is no punishment, Li Xiaoran wants to do his best to complete the task.

This is simply a business that makes money without losing money, and Li Xiaoran naturally can't give up directly, or even try it.

"It's not as bad as I said, after all, this store has been open for ten years, and a large part of it is my own credit since I came to Paris to work hard from scratch." Planck said proudly to Li Xiaoran.

But then he said gloomily: "But my own level, I still know, at most I can only keep the restaurant above the B level, although I have not slackened my cooking skills over the years, but I may have limited qualifications, and I have not improved much." ”、

"Rather than let him fall from the A-class, it is better to sell it at its peak and keep it for the last of its glory." Planck took a deep breath and said to Li Xiaoran.

"What if I could get the restaurant to get an A grade two days later?" Li Xiaoran looked at Planck and said calmly.

But when these words fell on Planck's ears, they were like thunder.

"Lee, what did you say?" Planck said with his mouth open.

"I said that if I were the head chef of the restaurant, I would get at least an A grade in two days." Li Xiaoran looked at Planck and said calmly.

"Lee, stop making jokes like this at this time." Planck said to Li Xiaoran with some anger.

A chef who can get an A-grade rating may not be a big deal in the world.

But at least in Paris, the A level is already considered upper-middle.

If Li Xiaoran had that level, how could he still be a helper in his own small restaurant?

Although it will not be like a star chef to be competed for by major restaurants, it will not be reduced to a small chef.

"Let's talk about cooking, I'll make the cooking, and let you see if I have the ability." Li Xiaoran said confidently towards Planck.

Chef Quirrell's cuisine, Li Xiaoran also used to be usual.

is not as good as himself, this is the conclusion that Li Xiaoran has reached.

As for not exerting his real strength, this point is also within Li Xiaoran's consideration.

But even so, Li Xiaoran is very sure that Chef Quirrell's cuisine is not as good as his own cuisine.

Looking at Li Xiaoran, who was full of confidence, Planck seemed to be stunned for a while.

This kind of confidence Planck has only been seen in real chefs.

"If you insist, there are still materials in the kitchen, but they haven't been disposed of, and there will be a lot of freshness missing." Planck said to Li Xiaoran.

Although the deliciousness of the food is mainly related to the cooking skills of the chef, it is also related to the freshness of the food.

It is impossible for a chef with the same skill to beat a chef with 5A beef at a low cost.

Even because of the ingredients, even if the skill is slightly missing, it can be made up for through the ingredients.

So don't underestimate the freshness of this.

It may even be possible to turn a dish that could have been a star dish into an A-grade dish because of this freshness.

"It's enough, even these ingredients are enough for me to make A-grade dishes." Li Xiaoran smiled and said to Planck.

Is it possible to make A-class dishes with these ingredients?

Looking at Li Xiaoran, who was wearing a chef's uniform, Planck couldn't help but take a deep breath.

I hope you're not saying a big deal.

Now there is no use in questioning, everything just needs to wait for the food to be served.

On the other side, Li Xiaoran walked into the kitchen and began to wash his hands.

Neat and clean, these are the most basic requirements of a chef.

The kitchen utensils and seasonings on the table are neatly arranged, and there is not a trace of dirt on the wall next to it.

When it comes to the kitchen, ordinary people's minds are generally full of the smell of oil smoke and full of oil stains.

But a kitchen that is truly rated as a grade will definitely not look like this.

This is the most significant difference between a restaurant with a grade and a restaurant without a grade.

It's not about the dishes or the price, it's about the most basic kitchen hygiene.

"Duck breast, although it is in the refrigerator, is enough." has been a cook for such a long time, Li Xiaoran is no stranger to the kitchen, just by glancing, Li Xiaoran has already decided what he wants to cook.

The first is to process the ingredients.

Holding the kitchen knife in his hand, Li Xiaoran's face was only serious.

"This kind of knife work," Planck outside the kitchen had an incredible look on his face.

The separation between the kitchen and the dining room is transparent, so that customers outside can see how the chefs in the kitchen prepare the dishes.

Sometimes cooking is also a kind of performance, a kind of creation.

In Planck's eyes, Li Xiaoran's knife work is not so fancy, and even looks decent.

But the speed is really amazing.

Fast, accurate, ruthless.

There was no hesitation.

Planck knew that in terms of knife work, Li Xiaoran was already much better than himself.

At least there's no way to do it when you're handling ingredients.

"It's pan-fried duck breast, but it seems to be different from the usual pan-fried duck breast." Looking at the ingredients prepared by Li Xiaoran, as well as the ingredients, Planck thought secretly in his heart.

However, it is not surprising because every chef has a different understanding of cuisine.

For the same pan-fried duck breast, each chef adapts it to his own characteristics to make it more characteristic than the original recipe.

As for the good or bad characteristics, it is only up to the diners to distinguish and decide.

Half an hour later, Li Xiaoran took out the marinated duck breast from the basin, put it on top of the frying pan, and fried the fat of the duck breast.

"Half an hour of pickling time is enough." Looking at the fat that appeared under the duck's breast and the fragrance it emitted, Li Xiaoran said secretly in his heart.

If it is a normal cooking method, it should be marinated for at least an hour to an hour and a half to be able to absorb the flavor of the duck breast.

But among the rewards from the system, there is a unique technique in which the marinade can be fully integrated into the duck meat after massaging the duck breast.

Dramatically reduce the marinating time and even make it more flavorful.

"What a fragrant smell, this smell, just this smell, has it already stimulated my appetite?"

With Li Xiaoran's handling of the food, an incomparably attractive fragrance came out from the cracks in the kitchen.

Planck, who was sitting in his seat, felt extremely hungry even though he had eaten breakfast in the morning, a kind of anticipation of delicious food.

"Pan-fried duck breast, please taste it." Almost ten minutes later, with the final decoration of the dishes, Li Xiaoran brought the dishes with a faint smile on his face.
