Chapter 138: Level 4?
On the invigilator seat, Chen Erfa frowned slightly, and looked at the direction where Wang Ming was going, the direction in which Wang Ming walked was not outside the gate, but the area of the fourth-level assessment not far from the fifth level.
"He's going to continue to take the fourth level?"
Chen Erfa's voice fell, and there was a hint of interest in his eyes, and as his voice came out, Yue Wu on the side also had a smile on his face, and she didn't have seen it before she went directly to the fourth level after the fifth level assessment, and it was not too unusual for her to directly get the third level in one day, but most of those people were veterans who had worked for several years or even longer, and their insights and operations in cooking and other aspects had reached a constant height.
And Wang Ming is different, in the eyes of Moon Dance and others, he has just turned eighteen years old, whether it is work experience or time, he should be worse than those people, and because of this, the smile on Moon Dance's face is also mixed with a trace of expectation.
"I remember that his master Li Long was very good back then, but I don't know how much he learned from Li Long."
Yue Wu said softly, and as his voice fell, Chen Erfa on the side also nodded, and as for the poor middle-aged man Lu Tianfeng, who had been talking little, Lu Tianfeng, raised his eyebrows slightly at this time, and immediately stood up.
"Although it seems that the results are good, the assessment of this five-level certificate is too simple, and in this world, the most important thing is genius, as for talents, as long as they are cultivated properly, they are also a big handful."
Lu Tianfeng straightened out the wrinkled white overalls, the expression on his face was very serious, and as his voice fell, Chen Erfa and Yue Wu on the side also nodded, and at this time, the chefs who had completed the assessment also lined up in turn, making the three of them also start to get busy.
At this time, Wang Ming has already started the four-level assessment, and this four-level assessment, in addition to the stricter use of knife work, the pickling of some raw materials, as well as the random cutting and production of two slightly simpler dishes, must be completed within the specified time, and this time, the time given is still forty minutes.
After paying a certain fee, as if taking the fifth level, Wang Ming quickly came to his own pier, and after receiving his own raw materials, he groaned slightly, took out a piece of beef, and swept his eyes casually over the two dishes on the list.
"Crispy beef cubes, stir-fried bamboo shoot flowers."
It seems like a simple two dishes, but the need for pickling of raw materials and knife work is undoubtedly much more difficult than when it was level five.
"This beef is dark red in color, it can already be divided into old beef, and the internal fibers in it are too thick, and I don't have a lot of time in the first place, and if I wait after marinating, I will undoubtedly waste a lot of time."
"And this traditional method, although it seems clumsy, can persecute the balance of its internal fibers as quickly as possible, so that the curing time is greatly shortened, this method is feasible."
Wang Ming took a light breath, and as the thought in his heart fell, the No. 2 mulberry knife in his hand rose and fell, cutting the beef in his hand into large slices thick with little fingers, and then did not continue to change the knife into strips, but used the back of the knife to continuously knock on the flesh one by one, until the front and back sides were all knocked out, and then stopped.
At this time, the beef was finely beaten by the back of the knife, and the internal fibers in it were also destroyed in a short period of time, Wang Ming did not stop at all, quickly changed the knife and cut the strips, and then cut the top knife into dices the size of a finger's belly, put it into the utensils on the side, and quickly added the seasoning, and the palm of the hand turned quickly in one direction, until there was a layer of white sticky matter on the hand, he knew that it was decomposed after the internal fibers of the meat layer were destroyed.
When he stopped, Wang Ming took the bamboo shoots, cut them into little finger-length segments in turn, and then used a mulberry knife to punch crosses on both sides, put them in cold water in the utensils to soak, and then prepared the ingredients needed for cooking.
In Wang Ming's serious cutting and pickling, several examiners on the invigilator seats in the fourth-level assessment area were also talking to each other in a low voice, and in this regard, Wang Ming had no distractions, and after the ingredients were cut and matched, he reached out and grabbed the marinated beef, felt the texture, and then groaned slightly, and walked to the front of his wok.
Skillfully turning on the fire on the wok, with the sound of the blower, driving the whining sound of the flames, the surrounding people who came in earlier than Wang Ming were stunned, and then someone turned sideways and looked at Wang Ming, who looked serious.
"Damn, this is starting to fry, crazy, right?"
"Whatever, the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and it will definitely fail in a while."
Someone talked in a low voice, but the voice was obviously very depressed, obviously the fourth-level assessment area, no matter what aspect of management and restrictions, is stricter than the fifth-level assessment area.
Wang Ming's skillful wok is on the fire, after injecting cooking oil, the beef grains are thinly covered with a layer of starch slurry, and when turned sideways, the random ingredients snow peas and ginkgo biloba are poured into a colander for later use.
As the flame rose and the oil temperature gradually increased, Wang Ming skillfully put the beef cubes into the pot, and after stirring them with iron chopsticks, the flame was slightly reduced by him, and the whole process was smooth and natural, and the three people on the invigilator seat couldn't help nodding.
After the beef grains are fried, Wang Ming takes them out, and when the oil temperature rises again, he pours them into a colander after a short second return to the pot.
Pour the base oil into the pot, add black pepper, green onion and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, then add oyster sauce, cooking wine, light soy sauce, sugar, a little pepper, and then pour a small amount of water to simmer the soup.
The flame rose, the soup in the pot kept rolling, with the stirring of Wang Ming's right hand spoon, it gradually became viscous, and seeing this, Wang Ming added a little sesame oil again, stirred evenly, and saw that the consistency of the soup was enough to hang on the side of the pot, the beef grains and accessories in the colander were poured into the pot by him, and after a simple tumbling, they were put out of the pot and put on the plate.
As the crispy beef cubes on the plate were filled with fragrance, someone had already walked over next to the invigilator seat, and after smiling at Wang Ming, he picked up the plate of crispy beef grains and walked slowly towards the place where the invigilator seat was.
The emerald green snow peas and the light yellow of the ginkgo biloba, combined with the bright brownish-red color of the beef, make the crispy beef grains give people a strong sense of appetite when they look at it.
After a quick brushing of the pot, another stir-fried asparagus is cooked out of the pot, beaten into a cross knife and soaked in water asparagus flowers, which look very bright, and then through Wang Ming's cooking, it is made to reveal a brightness, and the green asparagus flowers also make people's appetite increase.
On the invigilator seat, the three of them took turns tasting the two dishes made by Wang Ming, and when they couldn't stop nodding, they also cast an appreciative look at Wang Ming, and the examiner in charge of the level on the side, after looking at the timetable in his hand, also handed it to the two people next to him, which made the two of them look at Wang Ming, and the appreciation in their eyes was even stronger.
"Fourteen minutes and thirty-one seconds, yes, it's really a good material."
Wang Ming breathed a sigh of relief gently, and when he turned out to be a fourth-level certificate, he opened his mouth to thank him, and immediately walked out of the fourth-level assessment area without stopping, and when he took a deep breath, he walked quickly towards the third-level assessment area.
On the invigilator seat in the fifth-level assessment area, after all the students in the previous round of assessment submitted the grade verification time, Yue Wu and Chen Erfa also accompanied Lu Tianfeng, roughly inspecting the dishes of the most prominent knife workers, and at this moment, the eyes of the three of them all converged on the eighth position where Wang Ming was.
"I'm not mistaken."
Yue Wu groaned in his heart, looking at the raw materials that had been processed in an orderly manner at the No. 8 position and the extremely high quality knife work, when his heart was dark, Chen Erfa on the side took out a cigarette, and was just about to light it, when he looked at the fourth-level assessment area casually, the lighter that had already ignited the flame was fixed in his hand.
"Damn, this kid, is he going crazy?"
