Chapter 75: The Chef's Request [Asking for Recommendation Votes]
"I just try the dishes of Zuiyue Building, try how it tastes, and improve it myself, and it's just a meal, there's no need to be too high-end. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yun Ming said lightly, showing an indifferent smile, unimpressed.
"You're a chef, so why don't you try the dishes of Zuiyue Mansion and see if there are any shortcomings, you might as well point them out. Zhang Ziwen came up with such an idea, looked at Yun Ming, and said.
Yun Ming originally thought like this, but now that Zhang Ziwen said so, he naturally pushed the boat along the water, did not shirk, and nodded slightly.
The plate of stir-fried greens on the table, the main ingredient is small greens, which is the most ordinary greens, and it does not contain much aura, even ordinary people can afford to eat it.
The level of food, as well as the aura contained in it, is linked to the grade of the ingredients, so this kind of stir-fried vegetables, no matter how well they are done, can only be destined to be a one-star delicacy or the kind at the bottom.
However, after all, Zuiyue Lou is a high-end restaurant, and it is one of the best in White Emperor City, even if it is just an ordinary plate of stir-fried vegetables, it is more elaborate than other places.
Although the small greens have been completely disrupted during the stir-frying process and appear extremely irregular, it can still be seen that the size of these small greens is basically the same, and there is not much deviation.
From this point, it can be seen that the requirements for Zuiyue Lou to select ingredients are still relatively high, without the slightest sloppiness, and they are very responsible for themselves and their guests.
After the small green vegetables have been stir-fried, they have softened, and the surface is wrapped in a layer of oil, filled with a trace of heat, and there is garlic between the green vegetables, exuding a slight fragrance.
"The greens I picked are not bad, the size is basically the same, and the appearance is okay, I don't know how it tastes. Yun Ming said, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a green vegetable, and put it in his mouth.
With the entrance of the green vegetables, although Yun Ming felt that the taste was acceptable, but according to his requirements, such stir-fried vegetables were not up to par.
If you try it for someone else, you may think that a simple green dish can make this kind of flavor without adding any seasonings, which is already quite good.
However, for Yun Ming, he failed to reach the passing line.
That's the difference between a genius chef and an ordinary diner.
Yun Ming just ate a green vegetable and identified three shortcomings.
"How does it taste?" Zhang Ziwen asked, wanting to know what Yun Ming had to say.
"According to my requirements, such stir-fried greens are not qualified. Yun Ming put down his chopsticks and spoke, looking serious and not joking.
"Let's talk about the shortcomings, although I am not a professional chef, but I am also a foodie, and I want to see the gap between me and you. Zhang Ziwen said with interest.
"This plate is stir-fried greens, but obviously the heat is not in place, the small greens are fried, which reduces the taste, and there is the problem of edible oil. Yun Ming said the shortcomings of stir-fried vegetables.
"Of course, this plate of stir-fried vegetables is already very good for ordinary diners, and I won't find any faults, but I, as a chef, are more demanding. Yun Ming added.
"It's worthy of being professional, it seems that compared with those chefs on the first floor, there is still a big gap. Zhang Ziwen said calmly, there were no waves.
He now understands a little bit why the food made by Yun Ming is better than the food on the first floor of Zuiyue Building, and the price dares to be set so high, it is because Yun Ming has such strength, and he has relatively high requirements for himself, and he did not lower his requirements because of the identity of the guest.
That's the gap!
It is reflected in some details.
While Yun Ming and Zhang Ziwen were talking, the second dish had already been prepared and was served by the waiter.
The second course is braised pork, which is a two-star delicacy.
"Try this braised pork dish and see what the other drawbacks are. Zhang Ziwen was not in a hurry to eat, waiting for Yunming to taste and make a comment.
Yun Ming didn't rush to move his chopsticks, and his eyes fell on the braised pork on the porcelain plate.
The appearance of the braised pork is not bad, each piece of braised pork is the same size, showing a brown sugar-like color, wrapped in a layer of oil, each piece of braised pork with a viscous sauce, under the reflection of the light, slightly reflective, diffused with fragrance, and surrounded by wisps of aura.
For the appearance of this braised pork, Yun Ming was at least satisfied, and couldn't find anything wrong, so he picked up chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork, and put it in his mouth.
He took a bite of the braised pork and immediately felt the texture, the flavor spreading out in his mouth.
The braised pork is fat but not greasy, the combination of fat and lean is just right, the fat meat maintains elasticity and crispness, the lean meat will not stuff the teeth, and the pork skin is a little chewy, but it is not difficult to chew.
The flavors of the various ingredients are basically integrated into the pork, and when you take a bite, the various flavors are exuded, and they are not strong against each other, but they are not covered by any one kind of taste, but they complement each other.
Such a two-star delicacy is also extremely good when placed in the White Emperor City, and it is difficult for ordinary diners to find faults, but for Yun Ming, there are still shortcomings.
Zhang Ziwen didn't ask, but waited for Yun Ming to open his mouth and comment on this braised pork.
"The brown sugar put in is a bit excessive, the heat is not enough when the pork is stewed, the fire is in advance, the sauce is not well absorbed by the pork, and the combination of ingredients is a bit unbalanced, so that the various flavors can not be perfectly integrated and complement each other. Yun Ming slightly recalled the taste of braised pork, and then made a comment.
"It's just that a professional like you can find fault like this, and if you are an ordinary diner, you must find it delicious. Zhang Ziwen sighed, feeling that the chef is really not simple, just by tasting the food, you can know what went wrong.
"Since I've already reviewed two dishes, it's better to review even the third course. Zhang Ziwen looked at the third dish brought over and said.
Anyway, I've already done it twice, so it's better to do it the third time, and I won't waste too much time anyway.
The third course served by the waiter, which was also a two-star delicacy, was sweet and sour fish.
Sweet and sour fish is the same as braised pork, purely from the point of view of appearance, it is extremely good, I can't find anything wrong, if you want to find out the problem, you still have to taste it.
The surface of the sweet and sour fish is covered with a layer of translucent crystal sauce, which is sauce red, relatively viscous, like a layer of sugar coating, wrapped in the body of the fish, you can see the surface of the fish, diffuse with a trace of heat, there is a spiritual aura, and the aroma comes to the nose.
