Volume 3 City of Water Chapter 252 It's okay
The age of the cook was about forty years old, with a round head, thick eyebrows and broad eyes, dressed in white, two thick and powerful arms, the flesh on his face was fat, white and elastic, his eyes were small, he opened his mouth and smiled, his eyes narrowed directly into a slit, and the whole white steamed bun.
His name is Sun Dunchun, this name is too awkward, people with unfavorable lips can't call him at all, the Xiao family calls him Chef Sun, and the elders with a higher status call him Sun Fatzi.
It's just a title, and he doesn't care.
Pushing the sour and hot cabbage forward, Sun Fatzi said proudly, "Hehe, old lady, I heard that Miss's illness has taken a turn for the better, so I specially picked 66 cabbage sums to make this dish, which means that Miss can be 66 Shun and recover as soon as possible." ”
Xiao Changsheng nodded with satisfaction, "Well, you have a heart, borrow your auspicious words." ”
Zhou Nian said curiously, "Old lady, these 66 cabbage hearts refer to ......"
Xiao Changsheng chuckled, "Hehe, the master tasted this dish for the first time, he must not know the method of this sour and hot cabbage, don't hide it from the master, although this sour and hot cabbage seems simple, but it takes a lot of effort in the selection of ingredients, the so-called cabbage sum, in fact, refers to the innermost core after each cabbage is peeled off, 66 cabbage sums, which means that this dish consumes a total of 66 cabbages." ”
"Huh, 66 trees?" Zhou Nian was stunned when he heard this, 66 Chinese cabbages fried such a little thing?
Extravagant, extravagant, wasteful!
Xiao Changsheng smiled and said politely, "Master, this dish has to be eaten while it is hot, can you taste it first?"
Frowning slightly, Zhou Nian understood the suffering of the people in his heart, but his body was very honest, he picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, threw them into his mouth and chewed them.
Seeing that Zhou Nian moved his chopsticks, Xiao Changsheng faced everyone, "You're welcome, try it all." ”
When a sentence fell, what were the other guests polite? It took a lot of effort from the old nose to make such a little, and if you don't taste it, it's gone.
The chopsticks danced, and the other guests were already eager to try, and the whole plate of sour and hot cabbage was robbed in the blink of an eye, and a few of them were far away, so they simply stood up from the stool, and their arms were stretched far away, completely missing the etiquette on weekdays.
"Oh, fragrant, it's so fragrant, I've never eaten such a delicious hot and sour cabbage. ”
"That's it, I worked in vain in the first half of my life, and Chef Sun deserves to be called Chef Sun, and his skills are not ordinary. ”
"If you want me to see it, Chef Sun's cooking skills are afraid that he is about to reach the level of an imperial chef, and one day, he will definitely be able to rise to the top and soar!"
......
Everyone began to hold it vigorously, making Sun Fatzi happy, and the nose bubbles were about to come out, grinning and smirking and standing there, and his ability was great.
"Master, what do you think of the taste?" Seeing that Zhou Nian had been silent, Xiao Changsheng couldn't help but ask.
Frowning, Zhou Nian said lightly, "It's okay." ”
"Huh?"
At this sentence, the smile on Fat Sun's face suddenly froze, obviously a little unhappy.
"Is it okay? Do you have a long tongue? Everyone else praises you for being delicious, but you have to make something special, do you want to show off your difference?"
muttered in his heart, although Sun Fatzi was a little unhappy, but because of Xiao Changsheng's face, he had to endure it at the moment.
But he doesn't have seizures, someone will speak for him, the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and there is no shortage of people who cause trouble for no reason anywhere.
Next to the seat next to Wang Huozi, a big man with a pockmarked face smiled and asked, "Hehe, this little brother said it was okay, and we all said it was delicious, I think this little brother has his own unique opinions, you might as well say it, let us all help evaluate the evaluation?"
"Oh?"
As soon as these words came out, all the people around looked at Zhou Nian.
Especially Sun Fatzi, the dishes are made by him, and you have to listen to the reason why the other party said that it is okay.
Frowning, Zhou Nian directly ignored the pockmarked-faced man, but looked at Sun Fatzi, "Chef Sun, is this appropriate?"
Sun Fatzi rolled his eyes, Xiao Changsheng's face had to be given, but his reputation as a top chef was not blown by the wind, and he needed to maintain it himself, after hesitating for a moment, he smiled slowly, "Hehe, if the little brother has any opinions, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"That'...... All right. Zhou Nian spread his hands helplessly, he didn't want to pretend to be forced, but others forced him to pretend.
Eyelids raised slightly, Zhou Nian said slowly, "Chef Sun, in fact, the two most important flavors of sour and hot cabbage are sour and spicy, although the ingredients you choose are fine, but the taste is still a little bit worse, the so-called sour is to use aged vinegar to enhance the taste, the so-called spicy, is to use Chaotian pepper to enhance the taste, although you have used the right condiments for these two flavors, but this sour, you added it late, and did not dissolve it with the cabbage, I don't know if I am right?"
"Huh?" As soon as these words came out, Sun Fatzi's face suddenly turned pale, obviously guessed correctly by Zhou Nian.
When he made this hot and sour cabbage before, he only cared about giving Xiao Changsheng a good meaning, but he forgot to pour vinegar into it, and only remembered it when he was about to put it on the plate, and put it on the plate to cool, the vinegar couldn't make it strong, and obviously couldn't mention too much sourness.
He thought that this kind of small mistake would not be discovered, but he never expected that the unattractive kid in front of him would actually break the mystery in one word!
His brows were furrowed together, and in addition to his ugly face, Sun Fatzi was even more curious in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Little brother, you're right, the sour and hot cabbage this time is indeed slightly lacking in sourness, but how do you know? Could it be that you went to the back kitchen?"
Zhou Nian smiled lightly, "Hehe, I've been sitting here talking to Old Lady Xiao, where do I have the time to go to the back kitchen? ”
"What! taste?" Sun Fatzi was stunned, even Xiao Changsheng didn't taste anything wrong with this dish, he was a hairy boy who ate this dish for the first time, and he only moved one chopstick and found that the taste was wrong?
Impossible!
How does this tongue grow? Cats don't even have such tongues!
is unwilling, and Sun Fatzi is even more difficult to accept, his top chef's hat is so buttoned, how can a hairy boy be allowed to take it off easily?
Taking a step forward, Sun Fatzi said coldly, "Little brother, since you have studied food so well, you must be very skilled in cooking, Sun is not talented, and I am willing to learn from my little brother about cooking!"
"This ...... Forget it. ”
"Are you afraid?"
"Afraid? No, no, I'm not afraid of this, I'm afraid that you can't afford to lose that person. ”
"What!"
Sun Fatzi almost jumped up from the ground, and the other party's words were obviously belittling himself!
"Little brother, you are good at seeing a doctor, but when it comes to cooking, you are not as good as my grandson. ”
Sun Fatzi has proud capital, his grandfather is the imperial chef of the Yanyun Empire, his father once made a family banquet for the Michelle family, and he is also a famous top chef in the City of Water, which was dug up by the Xiao family with a lot of money.
However, as soon as his words came out, Zhou Nian didn't say anything, Xiao Changsheng's face was the first to turn cold, "Fat Sun, no matter what Master Zhou says, he is also a guest of our Xiao family, you treat guests with this tone? Our Xiao family's decency, are you too disregardful!"
Although Xiao Changsheng's volume is not high, but the weight is very sufficient, he is now eager to offer Zhou Nian like a god, holding it with both hands, holding it carefully, he is afraid that he will be unhappy, if anyone dares to shout in front of Zhou Nian, Xiao Changsheng will not agree to be the first one!
"I ......" Sun Fatzi shrank his head in fright, although he was deeply respected by the Xiao family on weekdays, he was always a cook, no matter how capable he was, he just cooked a meal, and he had no real power.
Zhou Nian interrupted Xiao Changsheng with a wave of his hand, and said indifferently, "Old lady Xiao, you are too harsh on Chef Sun, since he wants to compare with me, then I will play with him." ”
"Master, ......" Xiao Changsheng's face turned green, and he finally held Zhou Nian to a very high height, but the other party threw him on his back.
"Really?" As soon as these words came out, Sun Fatzi was immediately happy, but the words "play with him" made him a little nostalgic.
Zhou Nian nodded, "Really." ”
"Hahaha, okay!" Sun Fatzi came to his senses, glancing at the big mouth like a butterfly that had just broken out of the cocoon, and it seemed that he was about to fly, "You say, how do you want to compare? As long as you can say it, I will do it!"
Zhou Nian said lightly, "In order to save time, let's not make those time-consuming and labor-intensive ones, I estimate that there are still a lot of cabbage sums left in the kitchen, so it's better to do this, you still make your hot and sour cabbage, as for me, everyone has eaten almost, let's make a bowl of egg soup." ”
"Huh, egg soup?"
As soon as this delicacy came out, Sun Fatzi's face was smoking, if his teeth could grow three inches, he would be able to bite, "You...... You want to use a little egg soup to compare it with my hot and sour cabbage? You clearly look down on me!"
Zhou Nian spread his hands and said, "It's not that I look down on you, but state the facts, please show your best state this time to compare with me, otherwise the fried hot and sour cabbage will forget to pour vinegar, and everyone will not taste good at eating." ”
"You...... You!" Sun Fat was about to explode, his little tail was pinched by the other party, but he was speechless.
Zhou Nian looked at him playfully, "Okay, okay, don't sulk there, affect your mood, now take me to the back kitchen, it's over, I still have something to do." ”
"Please!"
Turning his head quickly, Fat Sun gritted his teeth and popped out of his mouth with a word.
Zhou Nian clasped his fists and turned around, "Everyone, the competition is about to start, please wait here for a while." ”
"Good, good. ”
Everyone clasped their fists and nodded, they could eat delicious food and watch a good show, why not?
Xiao Changsheng suddenly chased after him, pulled the corner of Zhou Nian's clothes, and whispered, "Master, you don't need to worry about a cook at all, I think this matter ......."
Zhou Nian turned his head and chuckled, "Hehe, Old Lady Xiao is too worried, I'm not worried about him, but I want to enlighten him, this Chef Sun's skills are good, but he is a little arrogant, if he can understand the truth that there are mountains outside the mountains and there are heavens outside the sky, it will also be very beneficial to your Xiao family." ”
