Chapter 100 Twenty-Nine: Destiny Stone Scone

Wu You held Scone in his hand and squeezed it with his hand, and the scone bread was squeezed into a ball.

Sikong Yao reprimanded in shock: "Brother Wu You, you can't waste food like this!" ”

Wu You smiled lightly, and then opened his hand in front of Sikong Yao.

An incredible scene happened, the crumpled scones were crumpled again, and then returned to the shape of a square brick.

Sikong Lu gasped, he didn't understand what the chef's world was like, but the bread in front of him gave him a feeling that it was incomparably strong.

What kind of amazing arm strength and flexibility do you have to make such a chewy bread?

Sikong Yao looked directly at the scone bread in Wu You's hand, and couldn't say a word.

How strong He Lai is, Sikong Yao didn't imagine it, but he didn't expect the distance between the two to be so big.

He Lai, the country's No. 1 pastry technician, is a real baker who is as tough as this.

At this time, He Lai had already cleaned up his table, and then sneered: "If you still don't admit defeat in this way, then I don't have anything you can do." ”

Sikong Yao gritted his teeth and reprimanded unwillingly: "Hmph, taste is the most important thing!" Brother Wu You, you tell him, is it my bread that is delicious. ”

Wu You smiled: "Then I have to wait until I have eaten it before I can make an evaluation." ”

Wu You held the scone bread in front of him, pinched it lightly with two fingers, felt the rubbery and flexible tendon feeling of the scone bread, and couldn't help but sigh: "Scone is an English fast bread, which belongs to simple bread in the classification of bread, and it can also be said to be the simplest bread in the bread industry." Flour and sugar, eggs and baking powder, plus some milk, form the foundation of Scones. In the legend. A chef named Scone made this bread in a place with a long history known as the Stone of Destiny, so the full name of the bread of Scone is also called the Stone of Destiny Scones. Am I right. Teacher Helai? ”

He Lai began to look at Wu You with admiration and praised: "Good boy." Sure enough, there is some insight. But you're not entirely right, the traditional scones are shaped into triangles, with oats as the main ingredient, and the dough is baked in a shallow pan used for pancakes, hence the name scones. Today, flour has become the main ingredient, and it has been baked in an oven and the shape is no longer a constant triangle. It can be made into various shapes such as round, square or diamond. That's why Scone officially joined the bread ranks. ”

Wu You continued to smile: "Scone bread can be made into a sweet taste, can also be made into a salty taste, in addition to being used as a breakfast, it can also be used as a snack, and it is best to accompany black tea as an afternoon tea snack." Let me try what difference your scone bread will be in addition to the tendons. ”

Wu You took a bite gently, the rich egg fragrance spread in his mouth, the outer skin was crispy, and the inner chewy taste instantly conquered his taste buds.

Scone in the Chambers Dictionary. From a Gaelic point of view, it means an unformed lump.

And the fate stone scone made by He Lai is to temper the unformed mass into a square brick. As soon as you bite into it, the layers of staggered confrontations compete with each other, and your own extreme deliciousness is volatilized.

There is only one reason why baking powder and baking soda can make such chewy bread with simple yeast, and that is the chef's own solid basic skills.

Wu You seemed to be in the middle of the waves in the wheat field, a breeze hit, and there was a strange faint fragrance mixed in the air.

Wu You frowned slightly. He muttered, "This smell, strange." Why can't I eat it......"

Sikong Yao also squinted, and the focus was on the scone bread. On the tough bread section, there is a little bit of emerald green powder.

Sikong Yao exclaimed: "It's rosemary!" ”

Wu You reacted suddenly and exclaimed, "It turned out to be rosemary, one of the most common ingredients in Western cuisine." ”

He Lai smiled: "It seems that your tongue is not as good as Sikong Yao's eyes, that's right, it's rosemary, I said, a real chef must not be limited to his own field." Grinding rosemary into a powder and then adding it to flour instead of sugar, this is my scone bread. ”

The sweetness and smell of pine wood, as well as the cool smell of the wind, are unforgettable.

Wu You applauded with satisfaction, and couldn't stop praising him: "Amazing, amazing, worthy of being the first pastry technician in the country, it is really worth the trip to be able to taste your craftsmanship today." ”

Sikong Yao lowered her head unwillingly, compared to He Lai, she was really too far behind.

He Lai said proudly: "Now you know who wins and who loses, right?" ”

Wu You nodded knowingly, wiped his lips with a tissue, and slowly spoke.

"The winner of this noodle showdown is Sikong Yao."

"What!"

Sikong Yao and He Lai shouted out almost at the same time, suspecting that their ears were causing problems.

He Lai asked a little awkwardly and hurriedly, "What do you mean, boy!" How could the bread I make lose to her! ”

Sikong Yao was also shocked, it was obviously the bread made by He Lai with absolute overwhelming strength, and even Sikong Yao himself was ashamed.

Wu You shrugged his shoulders and explained: "Rosemary likes to be warm and bright, and it is very good to use it as a seasoning in Western cuisine, but if you grind rosemary into powder and add it to bread, when you are baking, the rosemary will be destroyed by the high temperature of the oven, and then produce a little bitterness." Rosemary is indeed a natural flavor, and there are many desserts that add rosemary to it, which is no problem. But the fault is that you are destroying yourself. ”

He Lai gasped and said in amazement, "What do you mean?" ”

Wu You continued: "It is precisely because the bread you make is so pure and extreme, and it is very intriguing to chew, but it sets off this trace of bitterness more and more obviously. At the end of eating, the whole piece of bread is bitter. ”

"This ...... This ......"

In the end, the most advantageous weapon of Riga caused his own mortal wounds, and the result was really laughable.

And Sikong Yao was overjoyed and said mischievously: "Teacher, now you say, who lost?" ”

He Lai glanced at Sikong Yao, snorted coldly, and said, "If you lose, you lose, I won't shirk it." ”

Sikong Yao smiled: "Hehe, that's good, then according to the agreement, can I ask for leave." ”

He looked at Sikong Yao, then sighed helplessly, and said, "Do you have to go?" ”

Sikong Yao was serious, and Zheng Sheng responded: "Yes." ”

Sikong Yao's sincere eyes burst out with the purest light, which touched He Lai's heart.

He Lai asked, "What good is it for you to go to the opening ceremony of the Heart of the Holy Food?" ”

Sikong Yao shook his head and said truthfully: "It's not good. ”

He Lai frowned and asked, "Then why are you going?" ”

Sikong Yao raised his eyes slightly, closed his eyes lightly, and said softly: "Because the Heart of the Holy Food has a very important, very, very important meaning for me. ”

If it weren't for the Heart of the Holy Food, Sikong Yao wouldn't have known Meng Xiyao, and even if they met in the academy in the future, there would be no later communication between the two of them.

Everything is caused by cause and effect, and without a chance encounter in the heart of the Holy Food, there will be no indissoluble relationship.

For the heart of the holy food, Sikong Yao has a special feeling in his heart, so no matter what, Sikong Yao still has to go.

He Lai frowned slightly, everyone has no choice of their own, He Lai is just Sikong Yao's teacher, and he will respect Sikong Yao's decision.

However, whether it was for the honor of the academy or for Sikong Yao's future, He Lai asked again, "Are you really insisting on going?" ”

Sikong Yao nodded and said obligedly, "Yes, teacher." ”

He Lai sighed, and finally compromised, and said, "Okay, as a teacher, I can only wish you a smooth journey, go early and return early." ”

Sikong Yao nodded obediently and said, "Well, I'll be there for a week at most, and I'll be back soon." ”

He Lai said helplessly: "Let's go, let's go, hurry up, save me from worrying." ”

Sikong Yao rubbed his palms back and forth, and said with a smile: "I said teacher, you shouldn't forget one thing, right?" ”

He Lai asked puzzledly, "What's the matter?" ”

Sikong Yao's right thumb and index finger and middle finger rubbed back and forth together, and said with a smile: "Hehe, this." ”

He Lai said disdainfully: "What is this, if you have something to say, tell me clearly, what is the comparison?" ”

Sikong Yao stretched out a hand and laughed: "Tsk, don't you want to cheat, what about the good monthly salary?" ”

"What! How dare you ask for it? He Lai only felt that the world was spinning in front of him, and he was so angry that he couldn't breathe.

Sikong Yao smiled evilly, and then said: "Of course, I'm thinking about your reputation, teacher, a dignified No. 1 pastry technician in the country, will never play tricks in front of me, a little woman." ”

He Lai glanced at Sikong Yao and said, "If I knew that I wouldn't compare with you, no!" If I knew I wouldn't leave you in the dessert department, I don't know how much less I could worry about. ”

"Hehe, don't mind, after I win the Cherry Cup, when the reporter interviews me, I will definitely thank you in front of everyone."

Sikong Yao smiled flatteringly, the counselor of the dessert department, how much is this month's salary, just thinking about it, Sikong Yao is as happy as a flower.

On the side, Sikong Lu and Wu You glanced at each other and nodded meaningfully. (To be continued)
