Chapter 141: Tricking Him
Chen Jingting's body froze suddenly, "Half an hour? Why? ”
Duran raised his eyebrows: "Because the beef needs to be relaxed, so that the taste is tender." And the beef doesn't have time to marinate in advance, so sprinkle with chopped pepper to make it easier to absorb the flavor, are there any questions? ”
"No, hehe." Chen Jingting picked up the rolling pin and struck it quickly, and the steak was slapped with a horn.
Xu Hening looked straight at Duran, is this okay? I thought that he would have to spend a lot of time to move Duran, but now it seems that he still underestimated Duran's heart.
This woman is becoming more and more admired by him.
"Brother Xu, let's go upstairs, I have something to tell you." Duran shook his head and walked out of the kitchen.
Xu Hening glanced at Chen Jingting sympathetically, shook his head amusedly, and turned to go out.
Du Lan came upstairs, pushed the door and entered the private room, Gu Youan and Xue Yan both had solemn faces, she was stunned, could it be that the two were discussing something?
As Duran entered, the two quickly tacitly picked up the teacups, smiling and smiling.
Duran wanted to ask what they were talking about, but Xu Hening arrived later, and Duran had to swallow the words in his stomach.
Xue Yan looked at the door and said with a smile: "Duran, Hening, you guys have come up, where is Jingting?" ”
Duran sat down and said, "Stay in the kitchen and work, doesn't he want to be courteous and give him a chance to perform." Brother Xu, sit down, I just have something to tell you. ”
"Oh?" Xu Hening curiously pulled out a chair and sat next to Xue Yan.
After Xu Hening sat down, Du Lan asked Gu Youan to take out the recipe written in advance, and said, "Brother Xu went to my house yesterday and brought such a rich gift, and we have nothing to return." No, the day before yesterday, I went up the mountain to find a new spice, and I tried a pepper steak with it, I tasted it myself yesterday afternoon, and it tasted good. ”
Xu Hening was a little unhappy after hearing this, he sank his face and was slightly angry: "Duran, what do you mean by this?" I went to visit you and Brother You'an out of concern for my friends, not out of interest in getting something from you, and you would be looking down on me too much. ”
Duran looked at him stunned, he was kind, he actually misunderstood.
Du Lan's face was a little unbearable, "Brother Xu, I just expressed my gratitude, that's why I sent this recipe, you misunderstood me like this, it really makes me feel uncomfortable." ”
Gu Youan didn't expect Xu Hening to misunderstand, so he hurriedly helped the lady to cover up: "But Brother Xu, no merit is not rewarded, my lady and I have received too much favor from you, not one or two recipes can be paid off, my lady did this, out of sincere gratitude to you, if you want to treat us as friends, just accept it happily, don't think about anything." ”
Both husband and wife explained to him, Xu Hening's face softened a little, and he affirmed again: "I didn't exchange gold and silver for people's hearts, I just sent some supplements to suppress your shock." It's good that you understand, since you sincerely handed over the recipe to Shilipu, then I might as well obey the fate respectfully, but this is only one time and not an example. If you give me the recipe in exchange for friendship, I will simply withdraw my shares in Shilipu, and you can do it yourself. ”
After hearing this, Duran joked: "Brother Xu scared me just now, I never saw you get angry." Ten miles of incense by you to take care of our husband and wife can develop seasonings without distraction, if you want to do it, where can I find such a good partner. ”
Xu Hening's face turned pale, picked up the recipe on the table and looked at it, while teasing: "Okay, don't compliment me, even if I can take care of business again, the food is unpalatable, and I can't keep the guests, in the final analysis, Du Lan's craftsmanship is good, I just follow you to make a steady profit." ”
"Haha, Hening's mouth, I was coaxed by you to do business with you." Xue Yan quipped on the side.
Gu Youan also echoed and laughed.
The pepper steak was successfully added to the recipe, Duran returned Xu Hening's favor, and her heart was much more relaxed, she got up with a smile: "I'll go downstairs to make pepper steak, and by the way, teach the masters how to do it, you can talk slowly." ”
In the kitchen, Chen Jingting was still beating beef, and when he saw Duran coming in, his drooping face immediately smiled, "Duran, do you think I've knocked it out?" ”
"Almost, I'll do it."
Chen Jingting immediately put down the rolling pin, grinning his arms softly, "Wow, it's so sour, it's even more tiring than Zamabu." Fortunately, my son and I have a solid foundation, and I have to change to other masters, and I don't have to lose half my life. This is going to come out, who will come to work in the restaurant in the future. ”
Duran grinned, "Hee-hee, the longer you beat it, the better the beef tastes." As for whether the master is tired or not, don't worry about them. ”
In fact, it was marinated an hour in advance and tasted, and in doing so, she did mean to play a little trick on Chen Jingting.
"That'...... Do you still need me to help? If I don't need to, I'll go upstairs......" Chen Jingting said embarrassedly.
Knowing that he was tired, Duran waved his hand at him and walked over to the stove to start frying the steak. Chen Jingting walked away as if he had been granted amnesty.
Duran called all the chefs in the kitchen to show how to cook the steak herself, and now she hasn't made butter yet, so she temporarily uses vegetable oil instead of butter.
Here, she deliberately emphasized to the masters that vegetable oil should be used instead of animal oil, because vegetable oil is easier to grasp the maturity, it is not easy for novices to fry age, and the taste is more tender.
Whenever Duran taught him cooking, the chefs listened attentively, and everyone nodded their heads like pounded garlic, keeping the key points firmly in mind.
Then Duran set the steak and simmered it to the desired level, where she was fully cooked for fear that people would not accept the raw food. Finally, she put the fried steak on a plate, then use the remaining oil in the pan to fry the minced garlic and onions until fragrant, wait for the onions to be super soft, add a bowl of water to boil, put a few drops of wine, and then season with salt and pepper to slowly fry until a thick sauce, boil and pour on the steak.
The chefs were amazed, they had always stir-fried over a fire, and they had never fried them raw. Moreover, the beef flavor is rich and fragrant, which makes the masters drool greedily, and they can't wait to pinch a piece with their hands to taste it.
Duran knew this, left a piece for them, put another piece on a plate and put it in the food box, took a few knives and forks, and carried the rest upstairs.
In the private room, they chatted enthusiastically, and as soon as Duran entered the door, Chen Jingting smelled a fragrant smell of beef, his eyes lit up, and he raised his hand to get the steak.
Duran flashed to the side and sneered, "That's not how steaks are eaten. ”
Chen Jingting didn't succeed, so he sat back in his chair and waited patiently for Duran to tell him what to eat.
Duran placed the five plates of steaks in their respective positions, adjusted his elegant sitting posture, took out a handkerchief from his arms and stuffed it into the placket under his neck, picked up a knife and fork and demonstrated it himself, "Take the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left hand, cut it off piece by piece, tie it up with a fork and eat it." ”
Look at Duran slowly and methodically cutting and eating small pieces with a knife, his movements are elegant, like a famous lady of noble birth.
Everyone looked at her eating appearance and couldn't help but be stunned.
Duran turned his head to look at them and greeted them warmly, "Don't just look at them, try them." ”
Xu Hening and Gu You'an, Chen Jingting, and Xue Yan all took out handkerchiefs and stuffed them into the collar to pick up knives and forks, although they were not used to holding a knife in one hand and a fork in the other, they still had the same example, but after trying a few times, they were in a daze, why did the steak eat like this?
Chen Jingting is used to using knives and sticks, he tried several times to cut steak with a knife but failed, and finally threw the knife and fork on the table impatiently, and simply grabbed the steak and stuffed it into his mouth: "How convenient it is to eat like this, I really don't know why I use a knife and fork!" ”
Hearing his jail, Duran giggled, "Do you think you eat shredded chicken?" Our dish is for the princes and nobles, so eating steak is not only to taste the taste, but also to maintain an elegant posture, this is to satisfy their inner sense of self-superiority, understand? ”
Chen Jingting ate happily and said vaguely: "Understood...... Why don't you just have a meal, you can eat whatever you want...... Eat. I don't pay so much attention to it here. ”
Under Xue Yan's etiquette teaching, Gu Youan also chewed slowly, exuding grace and luxury in his gestures.
And Xue Yan and Xu Hening have been cultivated in a big family since childhood, and their appearance is naturally slow and logical, elegant or something.
Everyone ate slowly, and Chen Jingting ate rudely, and divided his steak by two, but he still felt that it was not enough, staring at Xue Yan's piece greedily, swallowing it.
Cheeky: "Big brother, yours give me something to eat?" ”
Xue Yan was afraid that he would reach out and grab it, so he picked up the plate and twisted it sideways: "I'll just give it like this, don't give it." ”
Chen Jingting complained dissatisfiedly: "Duran, you have done too little, right?" It's not enough to stuff the teeth. ”
Duran laughed: "Ha, what do you still want to eat?" Such a large piece of steak is enough to weigh seven or eight taels. This is also in Brother Xu's nonsense, and if it is changed to other restaurants, I can't afford to invite you. ”
Xu Hening smiled awkwardly and said politely: "Next time, next time, I will ask the chef to cook a whole steak for you, and keep it for you to eat." ”
Chen Jingting squinted at him: "Can it taste the same, anyway, I love to eat Duran's dishes." ”
Xue Yan's eyes widened: "Hey, it's a scoundrel again, isn't it?" ”
"Hehe, is it so delicious, I'll ask Duran, if there's anything in the kitchen, I'll go downstairs and serve it myself." Chen Jingting sneered.
Xu Hening looked at him with a greedy face, and couldn't help but quip: "Eat people with a soft mouth, take people with short hands, and persuade your mother in the future, don't embarrass Duran." ”
Chen Jingting's smile froze suddenly, Xu He would rather not be a person who doesn't mention any pot, he made this joke, obviously holding grievances for Duran.
Xue Yan and Gu Youan also stopped their knives and forks and were stunned.
The atmosphere was a little stiff, and after a while, Chen Jingting's face was sad: "I told my mother many times that Gu Chunyan was not good, but ...... Mother feels that she owes her little sister too much over the years, even if she knows that it is her fault, she has to be partial, I ...... I really can't help my mother, she is very reasonable, but this one ......"
Speaking of this, Du Lan felt uncomfortable, she stopped her knife and fork and comforted: "You are you, Gu Chunyan is Gu Chunyan, I am not good or bad, I can understand your mother's thoughts, so I don't blame her." But ......"
Speaking of this, Du Lan's words changed, and his eyes became fierce: "If Gu Chunyan still doesn't know how to restrain himself, I won't let others bully!" ”
"Don't worry, everything has me, if she dares to provoke again, I will never, right, will, abolish her!" Gu You'an's eyes were cold, and the cold and piercing words spit out from between his lips and teeth.
