Smelling this familiar smell in the kitchen, Chen Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath, as a person with intermediate cooking skills, he entered the kitchen, and it can undoubtedly be said that he came to his own territory, his mind was almost stuffed with all kinds of things about cooking, and now he didn't understand it, he usually didn't know how many things he had stored in his mind, but now, smelling this rich aroma, he could instantly distinguish which aroma was emitted by what food.

Walked in, take a look, the kitchen of this hotel is very large, just the staff inside roughly counted, there are dozens of people, the tools in each position are not the same, compared to the situation that a chef in a small restaurant does everything, the kitchen of the hotel, can be described as a clear division of labor.

The situation in the kitchen did not appear in Chen Yi's mind, and what he felt in his mind was only about various things about cooking, and the division of labor in the kitchen was probably not within the scope of his perception of cooking skills.

"Mr. Chen, let me introduce you, this is the head chef on the second floor of the hotel, Master Fan." At this time, Wei Xiaohua pointed to a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties and fifties and said.

Chen Yi suddenly smiled and was about to shake hands with him, but Master Fan raised his oil-stained hands, shook his head with a smile, and nodded lightly to Chen Yi to greet him.

"Master Fan, is the kitchen ready?" Wei Xiaohua asked with a smile, after the waiter told him about the matter, he reported to his superiors, and finally agreed to this matter, and then he discussed it with the head chef, Master Fan, but after Master Fan heard about it, he sneered. A person who came to the hotel for dinner. Eat well. Always thinking of new ideas.

How is it possible to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes taste like delicacies from the mountains and seas, and ordinary old chefs can only make the taste of this dish more mature, but never improve the taste to be like delicacies from the mountains and seas.

After seeing Chen Yi, he scoffed even more in his heart, just wanting to show everyone that he could scramble tomatoes and eggs, and the other words were just big words.

"Ready. Follow me here, young man, stir-frying is not as easy as you imagined, you can do it, the taste of each ingredient has a limit, otherwise, there will be no delicacies in this world. This Master Fan took Chen Yi and the others to the side of the kitchen, and said to Chen Yi as he walked, and everything in his tone was not serious. It's a thick mockery.

Chen Yi smiled and nodded, "Thank you Master Fan for your advice." If I'm not misjudged, the boiled beef at table No. 1 in the Peony Hall is a little old, but it's still under control. In the meal just now, he only tasted the plate of boiled beef closest to him, and as for the abalone that the man next to him gave him, he didn't eat a bite.

Boiled beef is also a famous Sichuan dish, the main ingredient is lean yellow beef, and the auxiliary ingredients are as many as nearly 20 kinds, this dish is spicy and thick, smooth and tender and palatable, and the fragrance is strong, it can be said that it is the most common famous dish.

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Manager Wei in the back shook his head and smiled, this young man really regarded himself as a chef with unparalleled cooking skills, and he even dared to teach Master Fan to cook.

And the junior brother of Zheng Lilin behind him, with a gloating look on his face, waiting to see Chen Yi's jokes, with what he thought in his heart, this Master Fan would definitely scold Chen Yi for not knowing how to pretend to understand, and not having any self-knowledge.

It's just that unlike the ridicule on the faces of other people, Chef Fan and some of the chefs next to him changed slightly, how did this kid know, no one should have revealed it just now.

Only they know that the pot of boiled beef in the Peony Hall is indeed a little old, the reason is that the apprentice in charge next to him was distracted and negligent for a while, and the beef was cooked in the spicy soup for too long, but the characteristics of this dish are spicy and vigorous, which has already covered up some of the flavors of beef, and he is not a professional chef, so he can't taste this is not a big defect at all.

"Mr. Chen, it seems that you know a lot about boiled beef." Master Fan didn't understand whether Chen Yi tasted it himself or someone else revealed it to him, so he could only avoid this topic.

"I don't know much about it, but I'm very familiar with it." Chen Yi said with a smile, when he saw the boiled beef, what came to his mind was the cooking and taste of the dish, and his tongue seemed to have become the taste of some high-level chefs.

Master Fan nodded, "I don't know if Mr. Chen knows about the allusion to boiled beef." He couldn't believe that a young man's sense of taste could be so sharp, better than that of some old chefs.

Chen Yi smiled, when he saw this dish, what came to his mind was not only the method of this dish, but also its allusions, he admired Master Fan's ability to change the topic, and unconsciously, he transferred the defects of the boiled beef to his allusions.

"Master Fan, the allusion of boiled beef is that in the Northern Song Dynasty, in the area of Zigong, the salt capital of Sanchuan Province, people installed rollers on the salt wells, and mentioned the brine with the cow as the driving force. Therefore, there are local cattle eliminated from time to time, and the local salt is extremely convenient, so the salt workers slaughter the cattle, take the meat and slice, put it in the salt water and add pepper, chili pepper to cook, its meat aunt tastes fresh, so it is widely spread, and later, it is improved, and it has become a famous dish that spreads all over the place. ”

"Mr. Chen is knowledgeable, please come in, this is the kitchen we have prepared for you, this kitchen is used to make some expensive dishes, since you need to cook dishes, it is too mixed in the big kitchen, it is most convenient to make it here, I don't know what ingredients you need."

Hearing Chen Yi say the allusion of boiled beef without any hesitation, Master Fan's heart was full of doubts, is this Chen Yi really a hidden chef, how is this possible, at this time, he came to the independent compartment next to him, he walked in with a few people, and then asked Chen Yi what ingredients he needed.

He was now full of doubts in his heart, wanting to see if Chen Yi was a person with excellent cooking skills, no matter how much fancy he had said before, once he really cooked, all the truths and lies would be directly revealed.

Chen Yi looked at this independent compartment, compared to the large kitchen outside, it was indeed much cleaner and tidy, and in some refrigerators next to it, you could also see some valuable ingredients.

"Four eggs, two tomatoes, green onions, ginger, broth, prawns, tomato sauce, salad oil, and some cooking wine, as for sugar and salt, here's no need to prepare, thank you Master Fan." Chen Yi looked at the entire kitchen and said to Master Fan with a smile.

Chef Fan showed a look of surprise on his face, he thought that Chen Yi would only want ingredients for simple fried tomatoes and eggs, but he didn't expect that now he asked for so many things, including two strange ingredients, prawns and broth, although these two ingredients can be added, but the test for the chef will be very big, even he has never tried to fry tomatoes and eggs like this, so the taste of stir-fried, he can't judge what it will be.

The ingredients that Chen Yi asked for were a little strange, but they were in line with the fundamentals of cooking, he looked at Chen Yi, doubted in his heart, nodded, and instructed the chef next to him to prepare these things.

And Wei Xiaohua and Zheng Lilin's junior brothers next to them all showed strong doubts on their faces, do you need these things for scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

The hotel's food library is very complete, especially for such a large hotel, whether it is flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the water, I am afraid that there is everything, maybe even some protected animals in the country will be saved, but it will not be taken out casually.

Seeing that all the ingredients he wanted were placed on the table next to him, Chen Yi smiled faintly, although he had never made this dish, but after the previous test in the restaurant, he could be completely sure that he had completely reached the level of intermediate culinary expertise from his actions to the taste of the dishes he made.

Just now, he used the appraisal technique to identify Master Fan and several chefs next to him, except for the two who couldn't identify it, the remaining three people all had junior culinary skills.

It seems that this Chef Fan should have intermediate cooking skills, and advanced cooking skills, his level will not be the head chef of a floor in this hotel at all, according to Chen Yi's inference, only some chefs of five-star hotels may be able to have such a level.

"Alright, I'm going to start, you can just watch from the sidelines, no need for help." Chen Yi smiled, then stood in front of the cutting board, ready to start his journey of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Zheng Lilin's junior brother next to him sneered, just fucking fried a simple tomato with eggs, and asked others to help, you think you are making a big meal, even if you want others to help, it is impossible.

Seeing that Chen Yi still didn't have any panic on his face, Chef Fan looked at the cutting board in front of Chen Yi intently, ready to wait and see how his cooking skills were, if it was just a big talk, then he wouldn't stay here for a second longer.

Chen Yi picked up two tomatoes and looked back and forth to see if the food was rotten or moth-eaten, which is the most basic action of a chef.

After that, Chen Yi opened a small basin of boiling water, put two tomatoes in it, scalded it for a while, took it out, skillfully removed the skin of the whole tomato, and then picked up the kitchen knife next to him and quickly cut the two tomatoes in a rice shape. (To be continued......)
