Roman Monet and Sikong Yao are both pastry chefs in the end, which is to say that, and sure enough, the topic is still pulled back to dessert, Roman Monet said a little proudly: "In addition to the main meal, there are also a lot of articles in desserts, you only know that there are macarons in France, but you don't know that in France, the cream round cake is as famous, it is a sweet food that is a specialty of the Alsace region of France and southern Germany." Its characteristic is that it uses a hollow spiral mold to make a crown-shaped cake, but just one mold is not enough to form a character, the reason why it distinguishes it from other cream cakes, do you know why? ”

In the face of Roman Monet's question, Sikong Yao was very confident, cream cake is a pastry product that spreads cream on the surface of the cake, highlighting the strong milk flavor and the softness of the cake, so to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of the cream cake, it is natural to start with the cream.

Sikong Yao smiled and said, "Of course it's cream, and it's an authentic French cream cream, right?" ”

Roman Monet nodded with a smile and said: "That's right, it is a sweet and smooth, French cream with a strong romantic atmosphere, soften the unsalted butter at room temperature, cut it into small pieces and put it in a large bowl, beat it smoothly with a whisk, put the egg yolk, sugar, cream and milk together with the milk in a small pot, and stir it manually." Turn on low heat, heat the egg yolk paste, stir while heating, turn off the heat when the egg yolk paste is covered with dense bubbles, put the egg yolk paste into a touch of cold water, and cool.

The cooled egg yolk paste is added to the beaten butter in batches and whipped evenly to obtain a French cream cream, which is known for its smooth and delicate texture. The delicate texture and slightly thicker texture of the light cream cream that Asians prefer may not be used to at first, but if you taste it carefully, you can feel a different flavor, because it is a French cream cake.

The flavor of French cream cream is that egg yolk is added, so it will taste more fragrant, but it brings a yellowish color, which also causes the distress of not being easy to color, and if the French cream is accidentally cooked when boiling the egg yolk. There will be lumps of egg yolks. When added to butter, it is conceivable that the small yellow dots are very obvious and not suitable for decoration. Therefore, it is also a big problem for pastry chefs when decorating. A pastry chef who is perfectly qualified for this job. Must be an experienced master.

Roman Monet said that he was happy, and he continued to instill French food culture with Sikong Yao, and at first Sikong Yao listened to it with relish. But the more I listened to it, the more panicked I became, and after a long time, I still didn't find a way to dissuade Roman Monet, so I listened aimlessly, and after a while, I had already arrived in Paris, and with the descent of the plane, Sikong Yao realized that trouble was imminent, and she was still at a loss!

Paris is a historic city, a convention capital, a creative powerhouse and a gastronomic destination. The residents of Paris have brought a vibrant and unique mark to the city of dreams, but this fashionable city does not seem to welcome Sikong Yao.

But it seems that there is no endless road, as soon as Sikong Yao and Roman Monet got out of the airport, she seemed to see a dawn of hope, she pointed to a large signboard erected on the side of the street, which was painted with all kinds of delicacies, realistic and tempting, Sikong Yao thought that maybe it would be a means for a restaurant to attract customers, and after asking carefully, she found that it was more than that simple.

"Uncle, look at what is written on that signboard, it looks like the dish is not bad, why don't we go to eat?"

Roman Monet raised his head slightly, looked in the direction pointed by Sikong Yao, and said with some surprise: "Huh? I didn't expect the Paris Food Festival to start. ”

"A food festival in Paris?" Sikong Yao suddenly cheered up, she didn't expect to be met by herself by such a good opportunity, and then the prosperity of the food festival may dilute Romain Monet's persistence in victory, "Why don't we go somewhere, the Paris Food Festival will definitely be able to eat a lot of delicious food, isn't it?" ”

Roman Monet hesitated for a moment, this Paris food festival is a triennial event, and he really wants to participate, but he is worried about the decision between him and Bai Xia, and he is a little wavering for a while.

Seeing this, Sikong Yao hurriedly said: "Uncle, the signboards of this Paris Food Festival are all over the street, it must be an unprecedented prosperity, don't miss it!" ”

Under the urging of Sikong Yao, Roman Monet finally compromised: "Okay, then I'll take you to go shopping tomorrow, and ...... tonight."

Sikong Yao hurriedly vetoed: "I'll go tonight, look at that time, although I don't know French, but I can still understand Arabic numerals, isn't it starting today, the evening must be super exciting!" ”

Unable to resist Sikong Yao's persuasion, Roman Monet finally nodded and said, "That's fine...... Anyway, I should find a place to have dinner, so I just forget it and go straight to the venue. ”

Sikong Yao saw that Roman Monet seemed to have given up the idea of going to Bai Xia, for fear that Roman Monet would regret it, so he hurriedly urged him to go on the road, but after a major event, Sikong Yao felt unspeakably comfortable, looking at that signboard, not to mention how comfortable, those dazzling delicacies, and the names of the restaurants exhibited in the exhibition, all seemed to be her saviors.

The Paris gastronomic festival takes place at the end of the Champs-Élysées, which is lined with businessmen and is not so long that it is lined with big companies, big banks, airlines, cinemas, luxury stores and high-end restaurants from France and around the world. You can enjoy entertainment, shopping and enjoy the beauty of one of the most beautiful avenues in the world with a history of 100 years.

From the Louvre, you can see the Champs-Élysées through the Place de la Concorde and the Arc de Triomphe to the new Arc de Triomphe in the La Défense district on the outskirts of Paris. The 19th-century buildings on both sides of the street, antique street lamps, and nouveau kiosks all add a unique Parisian romantic atmosphere to this avenue, which makes Sikong Yao's goodwill for the city rise a few points.

Walking on the Champs-Elysées, looking at the bustling traffic in the center of the avenue and the leisure under the shade of the dense French plane trees on both sides of the avenue, you can experience the life and romance of Parisians, famous shops, fashion, and cinemas interspersed with gorgeous, elegant and beautiful, which has become synonymous with it.

Some of the people are brightly dressed, some are elegant, some are youthful, some are simple and casual, but there is no slightest pride and artificiality, and people who travel at night have a common purpose, that is, the venue of the Paris Food Festival.

Maybe the restaurants on the street have gone to the venue, so many of the restaurants on the Champs-Elysées today have not opened, and when Sikong Yao passed by one of them, he was impressed by the beautiful sign, although the neon sign was not turned on, but Sikong Yao could also imagine how beautiful it would be when the lights were turned on through the dim outline.

Romain Monet glanced at it casually and said: "This restaurant is called Silver Coral, and it is also very famous on the Champs-Élysées, it is a three-star Michelin restaurant, and their best-selling restaurant is the jewelry pudding, which is said to cost hundreds of francs a piece, but the customers are still endless." ”

Sikong Yao couldn't help but be secretly surprised, a pudding can be sold for hundreds of francs, which is too easy to earn, but being able to obtain three stars of Michelin does have such strength, Sikong Yao is not jealous, but looks forward to maybe one day he can reach such a level.

Romain Monet continued: "I think I saw the name of this restaurant on the promotional sign of the food festival before, I think they should take the jewelry pudding that sells well in the exhibition, if the line is not long, maybe you can try to buy a copy and come back and try it to see if it is really so mysterious." ”

Sikong Yao also nodded, looking forward to it, but I don't know why, Sikong Yao, the owner of the name Silver Coral, felt very concerned, took a few steps forward, and suddenly showed a panicked look on his face, this Silver Coral, isn't it the restaurant where Bai Xia works? Isn't that jeweled pudding his masterpiece?

So this time, wouldn't you meet Bai Xia? Thinking like this, Sikong Yao felt that the world was spinning in front of her, and she was pushing herself into the fire.

Sikong Yao hurriedly tugged at Roman Monet's sleeve and said, "Uncle, I'm suddenly a little hungry, or let's find a random restaurant to deal with it, it's not too late to come back tomorrow, it's so late anyway, I guess those shops should be closed soon." ”

Roman Monet frowned and said, "What's going on with you today?" After talking about this and that, they all walked here, and in front of them was the venue of the food festival, and you actually told me that you couldn't go? How can this work, I'm going crazy with hunger, do you see where are the restaurants open along the way? Just take a few extra steps and don't be lazy. ”

Sikong Yao frowned, he really wanted to give himself two slaps, he was too capable of death, why didn't he think that the Paris Food Festival would definitely go to the exhibition, looking at Roman Monet's face that he had to go, Sikong Yao knew that he would really be in trouble this time.

Unlike Sikong Yao, Roman Monet at this time was happy, he hadn't been back to France for so many years, and he didn't know what the level of those old shops that were glorious in the past was, and he didn't know what the food in his hometown was, or it wasn't the taste of the year, thinking like this, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

But Sikong Yao followed behind, but she felt that she was going to hell step by step, and it was the first time for her to feel that this delicacy had made her so afraid. (To be continued......)
