Chapter 597: Eric's Request

Different from the versatile tomato sauce, the unique charm of black pepper sauce is incomparable to any kind of sauce, which can arouse the appetite of the slightly spicy, so that the tongue trembles The aroma can be perfectly combined with any kind of meat food, but when the juicy steak meets the black pepper sauce, the extreme aroma of the collision between the two is irresistible to anyone.

However, as a steak steak braised in red wine, black pepper sauce is never the protagonist of this dish but just a passerby, and red wine is the real owner.

However, the moment the tannins of the red wine are all forced into the beef with the temperature of the fire, the aroma condensed in the beef gravy is not just as simple as the ingredients, but also brings a new interpretation to the red wine.

The aroma of grapes gradually penetrates into the beef under the influence of alcohol, and the gravy of the beef tightly retains all the aromatic smells, and when it is presented to every diner, who can resist such a temptation?

The steak fell into the hot iron pan and made a sizzling sound, and the high temperature quickly locked in the juice of the steak and retained the delicious fat, and when the steak was about five ripe on both sides, the chef quickly stir-fried the garlic in olive oil, and cooked it in red wine and changed to low heat.

After the wine is dried, it is flavored with red wine, and the soup mixed with butter, pepper and salt adds to the flavor of the beef gravy, and the soup is painted into the meat through the pre-slice knife surface of the steak, and the aroma begins to exude an attractive aroma.

The chef was still delicately grasping the heat, completely locking the aroma of the wine into the meat steak, and Sikong Yao took a deep breath. Feeling the thick scent wafting through the air, even outside the farm, some unknown beasts began to jump.

After the red wine is also burned, the aroma of wine, garlic and meat is harmonious, and it lies perfectly on the delicate plate. Meng Shi decorated with flying broccoli and sliced tomatoes, and placed them in front of Sikong Yao and Jean.

It is poured with freshly boiled black pepper juice, and as soon as the sauce is applied, the heat begins to rise. The pleasant sound is seductive. Sikong Yao couldn't help but feast.

As the host, Eric said proudly, "I hope you enjoy the pan-fried T-bone steak with red wine." ”

Needless to say, Sikong Yao and Jean had already raised their knives and forks. Touch the tip of the knife to the steak. The soft meat opens at the touch of a button. "Zila" sounded. The mellow gravy that is perfectly locked in the steak oozes out along the texture of the meat.

The aroma wafted out, and even Jean, who didn't like to eat raw beef, couldn't help but be hungry.

Sikong Yao elegantly took a small piece of beef tenderloin into his mouth, and the steak with just the right heat did not have a trace of bloody smell. Only the ultimate meaty aroma and the pure aroma of red wine.

The carefully painted steak melted in her mouth, depriving Sikong Yao of her taste buds with the aroma of red wine, and she couldn't help but eat most of the steak in a row before she began to ease up.

Sikong Yao praised: "Erik Zhuang, thank you so much for your hospitality!" ”

Compared with the ordinary food eaten in the farm yesterday, it is obvious that this well-cooked steak has won Sikong Yao's joy even more.

Jean also praised: "The red wine is just right to outline the aroma of the beef itself, and the ingredients are also very accurate, not to steal the flavor of the beef itself, the chef knows how to combine and match the ingredients, and the owner of Eric is blessed." ”

Seeing the satisfied looks of the two guests, Eric also smiled knowingly, and proudly responded: "That's natural, first-class restaurants often can't make such delicious food, only in some farms, can you really enjoy the original cuisine." ”

Sikong Yao took the fork in his mouth and licked the gravy on it, Sikong Yao also said with a little emotion: "I heard that in Germany, the owner of the ranch will use the malt left over from brewing beer to feed the calves, so that when the cow grows up, it will exude a mellow aroma of beer all over the body. ”

Eric nodded and said, "Yes, in Germany, farmers will feed their calves with the grass and brewer's grains left over from brewing beer, and these beef dishes will have a very strong aroma in themselves, but compared to the natural quinic cattle, it is still a little worse, haha." ”

After Sikong Yao tasted the red wine roasted steak that Eric entertained her, she suddenly asked, "Master Eric, do you need our help with anything?" ”

When Sikong Yao said this, Jean slowly put down the knife and fork in his hand, in fact, he had already had such a premonition.

The owner of Su Wen Eric is not optimistic about the young chef, and his temper is also a little stubborn, and he usually only interacts with business partners, and he simply ignores the inexperienced chef, but today he has hospitably entertained Sikong Yao and Jean, which makes both of them feel a little strange in their hearts.

Although it may be that the previous discussion of red wine culture between the two made Eric a little impressed, but just like that, I am afraid it is not enough to be so hospitable, at most it is just a few words of greeting.

The sensitive Sikong Yao knew that Eric must have something to ask for, but with his high shelf, he was afraid that he couldn't put it down, since he had eaten other people's food, then he should also do something appropriately, so Sikong Yao said obediently: "If there is something I helped, the owner of Eric said that it was okay." ”

Sikong Yao's empathy made Eric very pleased, he was worried about how to find an opportunity to ask Sikong Yao or Jean for help, but he couldn't put it down, Sikong Yao was able to take the initiative to ask for instructions, which really made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Eric breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's right, it's my girl's birthday in a few days, and then she will come back to the farm to hold a banquet, and your professional pastry chef cooking assessment this time is to cook the dessert of the day for my daughter." ”

Sikong Yao nodded and said, "Well, that's a good thing, is there any problem?" ”

Eric sighed: "The problem is that my daughter knows some ill-intentioned people, she is the heir to an internationally renowned dessert restaurant, Tuscan farms have always been lacking in this area, if this dinner is not done well, they must be used as an excuse to criticize Tuscan farms, in Italy it is not the Medici family has the final say, there are many farms of comparable size have been eyeing them." ”

Hearing this, Sikong Yao was also a little silent, for those of them who came to the Tuscan farm to conduct the professional pastry chef assessment, their purpose was just to obtain the certification of passing the assessment, but they didn't know that there were also some powerful people involved in the struggle behind the scenes.

Sikong Yao smiled lightly and said, "Then Eric Zhuang Master, what can I do for you?" ”

Eric sighed and said: "Every farm will have a unique business project that has been cooked, the best Sangiovese grapes in Tuscany and the roast steak you have eaten before, but I am really helpless for desserts, if it is just an ordinary dessert, it must not be able to gag the mouths of those guys, I hope you can cook some never-before-seen desserts, if you can bring the characteristics of Tuscan farmsteads it would be better, You two are two of the most talented pastry chefs in the Tuscan farmhouse this time, and I can see that, which is why I have commissioned you. ”

Jean suddenly smiled and said, "This is the assessment condition for a professional pastry chef?" ”

Jean suddenly felt that if they messed up the dinner party and caused Eric to lose face, no matter whether the desserts they made had reached a professional level or not, as long as Eric was not happy, no one would be qualified.

Although Eric didn't show such a tough attitude, Sikong Yao could guess a little, as long as he didn't want to, I'm afraid no one would be able to qualify.

Eric was silent, as if he didn't want to say it so strongly, but judging from his expression, it was not much different.

Sikong Yao smiled helplessly: "Then in order to become a professional pastry chef, this meeting is really going to make some efforts, haha." ”

Although it is difficult for some strong people, Sikong Yao does not feel too embarrassed by this, and he can still accept such conditions, after all, it is not too difficult to just cook desserts with the characteristics of Tuscan farms.

To put it simply, it's just a dish with a limited theme.

Sikong Yao pondered for a moment and said, "Then Owner Eric, what are the characteristics of Tuscan farmsteads?" ”

Eric saw that Sikong Yao seemed to be ignited, and he was also very excited: "Of course it's grapes, Sangiovese grapes, this is not only the pride of Tuscany, but also the pride of the whole of Florence, the status of Tuscan farmsteads in Italy is enough to symbolize the whole Florence!" ”

Sikong Yao nodded slightly, then it is a grape-themed dessert, grape pudding, brushed grapes, Baileys grape fruit, and grape egg tarts are all good choices, but these are too ordinary desserts, I am afraid that they will not be able to meet Eric's requirements, Sikong Yao fell into deep thought.

Jean is also a little thoughtful, there are not many desserts with the theme of grape flavor, but to find a classic dessert with unshakable status, I don't know how to start for a while.

Eric sighed and said, "Is it really a little difficult?" I've been working on this for more than half a year, and I've found a lot of professional pastry chefs, but they haven't been able to come up with any good solutions. ”

Speaking of this, Eric's expression flashed with a hint of disdain, and Sikong Yao understood why Eric had shown disdain for them pastry chefs before, and the reason was here, because no pastry chef had been able to satisfy him so far.

Although Sikong Yao has no good impression of Eric and has no intention of solving problems for him, she has the pride of becoming a professional pastry chef, and she can't be underestimated by Eric for anything. (To be continued......)
