Chapter 113: A Chef Who Can't Make a Fire

Seeing this special shape she cut, Qi Erfeng was a little strange, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mother, why did you cut the loofah like this?" You look at the leather ...... I don't think it's completely clean. ”

Although Dong Fangyu had already said just now, don't peel off the skin, but Qi Erfeng understood that there would be a lot of skin, but she didn't expect that the truth was completely different from what she imagined, looking at this boxy loofah, Qi Erfeng was a little skeptical that the thing she saw was a loofah.

It turns out that you can really cut carrots into diced meat! You can cut one ingredient into something completely different.

"It's just to keep a little bit, the function of this skin is to make the loofah can be shaped, so that the loofah we fry will not be a big plate of watery soup." Dong Fangyu explained.

"Oh, I see!" Qi Erfeng suddenly realized, and then tasted it carefully, it was really like this. In the past, when she fried the loofah, she peeled off all the skin of the loofah, although the taste was very good, but it was indeed like Dong Fangyu said, the fried loofah became watery, like a bowl of soup.

However, a question immediately popped up in Qi Erfeng's heart: "Mother, although this skin can be shaped, if the taste is affected at that time, will it be a big loss because of a small loss?" ”

Cooking should still be based on the taste of the dish, and you can't just pursue the appearance and ignore the most important things.

Dong Fangyu nodded, obviously very satisfied with this lively-minded Qi Erfeng. With such an apprentice, it will be much easier for her to teach. What makes her even more satisfied is that she may finally have a successor with her full cooking skills.

Although among the people, many chefs are reluctant to pass on their cooking skills to their apprentices, because it is likely that they have trained apprentices, and when the apprentices can take charge on their own, the master will have no way to live. But the royal chefs in the palace didn't think so. They are already the top culinary skills of the dynasty, and they have also been cooking in a top place like the palace, they are not worried that they have taught their apprentices to starve to death of their master, but they are worried that there is no successor to their mantle.

Therefore, many imperial chefs are willing to return to their hometowns after they are older, and go to the people to find suitable offspring to teach their skills.

Of course, Dong Fangyu also has such thoughts, but for so many years, she has lived in the countryside and has never met the right person. She thought that she might be so old in her life, and her cooking skills would be brought into the loess together. Unexpectedly, she met Qi Erfeng.

"Well, your worries are very reasonable, if you don't worry, wait for me to make it later, and you can taste it yourself." Dong Fangyu smiled slightly, and didn't explain much.

Qi Erfeng originally wanted to say, wouldn't it be better if you just told me now? But on second thought, yes! Whether it affects the taste or not, everyone's feeling is different. Even if Dong Fangyu told her now that leaving a little skin on it would not affect the taste, would she really believe it?

I'm afraid that after tasting it himself, Qi Erfeng will really believe it.

Knowing this, Qi Erfeng couldn't help but begin to admire Dong Fangyu. It seems that she is not only good at cooking, but also has a good grasp of people's hearts!

Dong Fangyu didn't say much, and neatly put the pot that had been brushed on the stove, and then gave Qi Erfeng a look. After Qi Erfeng was stunned for a moment, she immediately understood what she meant. This era is not a five-star hotel in the future, there is no natural gas on the stove, and the fire has to be fully automatic by manpower.

Dong Fangyu's look just now reminded Qi Erfeng that she should go to make a fire at this time.

Qi Erfeng immediately said with a knowing face: "I'll go and make a fire." ”

Dong Fangyu nodded: "The fire is going to be strong, you should know this, right?" ”

Qi Erfeng nodded, of course she knew this, the fried vegetables must be burned on a high fire, so that the fried vegetables can not only maintain the green and tender color but also have a crisp taste.

Qi Erfeng is actually not good at making a fire, because when she was a chef, this kind of thing was done by a fully automatic natural gas cooker. When I was cooking in Zuixianju before, there was also a shop junior who was in charge of burning the fire and waited carefully, and she could easily achieve it as long as she said a word.

Now it's up to her to do this kind of rudimentary work by herself, and she's really not good at it.

After Dong Fangyu put the pot on the stove, she turned around and went to chop vegetables...... The loofah was quickly cut into evenly sized strips. The side dishes were also handy, and they were cleaned up in three or two clicks.

When she turned her head to look at Qi Erfeng again, Dong Fangyu originally thought that this fire should have already been lit, but she didn't expect that Qi Erfeng was still cold on his side, and there was no spark at all.

Dong Fangyu asked puzzledly, "What's the matter?" Why haven't you lit a fire yet? ”

"......" Qi Erfeng raised his head from under the stove embarrassedly, with an embarrassed smile on his face, "Mother, this fire ...... How do you give birth? ”

Dong Fangyu almost turned her back on her anger, is this the apprentice she is optimistic about? Can't even make a fire?

"You can't even make a fire, do you? Then who helped you make a fire when you stir-fried before? Dong Fangyu said angrily. She wants to teach Qi Erfeng to cook, but Qi Erfeng can't even make a fire, so does she want her to get on the horse and do something like making a fire?

"Before...... It's all ...... Someone else helped me make a fire. Of course, Qi Erfeng didn't dare to say anything about the natural gas stove.

"Humph! Do you want someone else to light a fire for you now? Don't expect me to make a fire for you, if you don't want to learn, just say it as soon as possible, I'm too happy not to teach. Dong Fangyu was a little angry. Originally, the apprentice and the master learned the craft to serve the master before and after the saddle, but it was better to come to her, and let her, the master, serve the apprentice in turn.

It's okay to say if it's something else, but if it's such a rudimentary thing as lighting a fire, wouldn't she Qi Erfeng know it? Although Qi Erfeng said the truth, Dong Fangyu would not believe it.

In Dong Fangyu's opinion, Qi Erfeng's hypocritical appearance is relying on Xiao Hongluo to like her, and deliberately playing prestige here with Dong Fangyu.

With such prejudice, Dong Fangyu naturally didn't want to see Qi Erfeng. I greeted her with a smile just now, and at this time, I also pulled down my face, looking unpleasant no matter how I looked at Qi Erfeng.

Qi Erfeng immediately stood up and explained apologetically: "Mother, don't be angry, I will study and study again, and I should be able to figure out how to make a fire soon." ”

"Humph! Do your own research here, I don't want to waste time with you here! After speaking, Dong Fangyu put all the ingredients in his hand on the board, and then walked out angrily.

Qi Erfeng was a little embarrassed. In fact, she can understand why Dong Fangyu is angry, because, in Dong Fangyu's opinion, the matter of lighting a fire is the simplest, just like the people of their later generations asked the chef to turn on the switch of the natural gas stove.

Think about it from another perspective, if Qi Erfeng is asked to teach a cook, but the other party tells her that she doesn't know how to turn on the switch of the natural gas stove at all, I believe that Qi Erfeng will also feel incredible, and then feel that she was deliberately provoked.

The reason why Dong Fangyu was angry should be that she felt that she was deliberately provoked by Qi Erfeng.

Qi Erfeng really can't say it, but she knows that the most important thing to do now is not to explain to Dong Fangyu, because the explanation can't be explained, and this matter is so incomprehensible in Dong Fangyu's opinion.

What Qi Erfeng should do now is to figure out immediately how to make the fire. She searched in front of the stove for a long time, and finally saw the flint. However, how to use flint? I've seen others drill wood to make fire on TV before, but I've never seen how to use flint like this.

Just when she was worried, Xiao Hongluo suddenly appeared at the door of the kitchen.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Hongluo looked at Qi Erfeng with a smile and asked. Although the two of them were far away, Qi Erfeng still felt that there was a gloating expression on his face, and even there was a smugness in his tone that could not be concealed.

Qi Erfeng really doesn't know, what is this guy doing when he comes in at this time? Did you just hear Dong Fangyu's complaints, and came in to see her jokes at this time?

Qi Erfeng said angrily: "I'm making a fire." ”

Do you want her to say something so obvious? Can't he see it with his long eyes?

Xiao Hongluo nodded: "Oh, it turns out that you are making a fire, what?" Is fire hard to make? Dystocia? ”

Qi Erfeng didn't hear what he meant for a while, but after thinking about it for a while, Qi Erfeng reacted, this guy was making fun of her!

"Hey, what the hell are you doing here? Don't talk cool there, okay? I just can't make a fire, what's wrong? I used to cook with someone lighting a fire for me, is there anything wrong with that? Qi Erfeng knew that it must have been Dong Fangyu who said something contemptuous of her in front of Xiao Hongluo, so Xiao Hongluo came over to see her jokes.

Seeing that Qi Erfeng said a lot of things angrily, Xiao Hongluo finally couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I know, you have always had someone waiting to cook, my wife will be treated like this, I don't doubt it at all, but I am convinced, don't you think it's strange?" ”

He's almost laughing, okay?

Qi Erfeng glared at him: "If you don't believe it, just say it, don't you feel tired of talking around the bend?" Whether you believe it or not, I didn't mean to provoke your mother, and if you don't believe it, forget it, I know you will think that I am deliberately hypocritical. ”

Qi Erfeng muttered unhappily.

Although she does not take care of this matter, she also knows that it is easy to be misunderstood by others. But what to do? Even if she thinks it's normal to be misunderstood by people all over the world, she just can't accept that Xiao Hongluo also misunderstands her.
