Chapter Ninety-Six: The Art of Killing Fish

"First of all...... The other party doesn't eat coriander, and it's the kind that is extremely disgusted. Therefore, the behavior that you are accustomed to cooking and throwing a lot of coriander into the dish can be stopped for a while. ”

Da Zhuang's face showed a little embarrassment, "This, I'll pay attention, what else?" What else should I look out for? ”

"What's more, this guest is from the south, so the taste is relatively light, so you need to control the use of a series of spices such as salt!"

"Control ......" Wan Hongzhuang's face showed a thoughtful look, "The standard of control is really a bit difficult to measure. ”

Although he had worked in the south before, he was familiar with the tastes of the people there...... But after all, he had been away for a long time, and for a while, even he was a little unsure of what to do.

"It's okay!"

Xiaoxue replied confidently: "I heard that this guest also went to the snack street next door yesterday, saying that he was going to experience the local specialties of Yongzhou, but because he disliked it too salty, he left without eating a few bites...... According to the people who accompanied him, at least half of the salt had to be put in less to suit his appetite...... With this standard here, you can estimate it, and how you have to control it! ”

Wan Hongzhuang nodded, "As soon as you say that, I probably have a number, by the way, have you found any reliable information about what dishes to serve?" ”

Xiaoxue's expression was a little strange, and she sighed for a few breaths, and said: "For the dishes, the other party doesn't stipulate which dishes must be made or what to eat, but only requirements, be sure to eat the signature grilled fish ...... in our store."

Wan Hongzhuang's expression was stunned, this was an answer he had never thought of.

Although grilled fish is indeed a specialty of their shop, the boss brought him to Yongzhou at that time, mainly because of his skills......

Of course, this belongs to Wan Hongzhuang's unique secret recipe, although other shops also sell grilled fish, but it is not as delicious as Wan Hongzhuang's cooking.

By now, in fact, he has basically not ended up much, but the ratio of seasonings is still in his hands to ensure the final production of each dish...... Those assistant chefs, after a period of training, may be able to learn some skins, but they have never been able to grasp the essence of the dish.

This is also the main reason why Wanhong Zhuang can maintain a stable position in the store and always stand.

- He is the soul of this shop.

It's just that the other party's request still makes Wan Hongzhuang a little confused, maybe ...... Is it because of the boss's strong recommendation?

Hard.

Even if I highly recommend it, choosing to eat grilled fish at a small restaurant seems to be ...... None of them corresponds to the identity of those people!

However, this is not a problem they need to consider, in short, through Xiaoxue's inquiry, the big problem in front of all of them has finally been solved...... Next, if the old dog didn't think of the corresponding moves, what he was about to face would be Wan Hongzhuang's undying counterattack.

He's had enough of that old dog!

"Lao Li!" Wan Hongzhuang's expression became serious, "Bring the prepared ingredients!" Today this fish, I personally deal with it! ”

The fish-killing knife on the side was lying quietly on the knife holder, flashing with a breathtaking cold light.

The words faintly engraved on it, in so many years of fighting career, slowly become dim and unclear, but the sharp blade is shining in this slightly obscure kitchen!

Da Zhuang can't remember how long it has been since he killed a fish...... Since he had a cook and a small worker, he really hasn't done these basic preparations for a long time.

But this does not mean forgetting, many memories have long been buried deep in the bones.

As long as he holds the hilt of the knife, he is still the high-spirited and indomitable Wan Hongzhuang!

Li Dazui's face couldn't help but show fascination...... Regardless of position.

He didn't want to fall deeper and deeper in the battle between the two, but now Wan Hongzhuang is willing to do it himself, which is a good thing for him...... Even if the news delivered by Xiaoxue is wrong, all the harsh criticism will inevitably only fall on Wan Hongzhuang's head, and it will not have much to do with him.

"Okay!"

Li Dazui answered, hurriedly went to the side, and prepared the relevant side dishes.

Looking at the high-spirited Wan Hongzhuang in front of him, Xiaoxue's face also showed a strange look...... Originally, she thought that other people would be somewhat skeptical of the news she heard, but she didn't expect Wan Hongzhuang to ask too much and fully accepted the information she transmitted.

This kind of trust can't help but make her feel an inexplicable warmth in her heart.

"It's trust!" She couldn't help but smile sweetly on her face, looking at Wan Hongzhuang with a focused face in front of her, she couldn't help but be a little stupid.

What girl can refuse a young version of Tony Leung with a focused face!

At this time, Wan Hongzhuang was staring reverently at the mullet in front of him, still writhing on the chopping board, his eyes were so focused, focused on him at this time, there was no room for anything else in his eyes......

Everyone present held their breath and stared straight at the not very majestic back, as if they were ...... Pilgrimage!

Everyone's face was full of yearning, and all kinds of mixed emotions began to spread in this small kitchen......

Yes, Wan Hongzhuang is a legend in this kitchen!

Legend has it that it only takes him 30 seconds to kill a fish.

It's not just fast, if Li Dazui hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that a person could actually turn killing fish into an art......

"Learn to ...... What is the art of killing fish? ”

Li Dazui's eyes were distracted, muttering and muttering, while the assistant chef and Wang Ruihuai beside him were angry and unconvinced.

In their opinion, Wan Hongzhuang can only be regarded as a high-level chef at most, and as for the basic skills, he is not so good at all!

A sharp qi suddenly burst out from Wan Hongzhuang's body, and at this time, his whole person was surrounded by a sharp qi!

It's impossible to look at directly.

All the feelings came back at this moment, including the muscle memory that had been cultivated after so many years of continuous killing......

The fish-killing knife raised high flashed with a dazzling cold light, and with the back of the knife slammed down, the mullet that was originally alive was instantly cut off from all its vitality, jumped slightly, and then lay sideways on the cutting board.

2 seconds.

I didn't see Wan Hongzhuang deliberately make any adjustments, and instantly twisted the blade like flowing water, and pulled it up with the back of the knife from the tail of the fish, and quickly and unbeatably slashed up.

Countless fish scales cracked in an instant, clinking and falling on the chopping board. Then he gently patted the cutting board, and the whole mullet instantly bounced off the cutting board, turning over one side very smoothly, and then, with another knife, removed all the scales on the other side in the same way.

15 seconds, just 15 seconds!

In the blink of an eye, all the scales around this mullet have been removed.

Immediately after, he raised the knife in his hand again and chopped it down fiercely!

Without any hindrance, the head of the fish was instantly separated from the body of the fish, and his movements did not stop at all, and with a slight pick of the tip of the knife, the gills and fins on both sides were all cleaned.

21 seconds.

Everyone was stunned to see the miracle in front of them, and Wan Hongzhuang's performance continued.

I saw that with a turn of his blade, the entire belly of the fish was broken in an instant, and then the tip of the knife was traced back from the tail of the fish, and all the organs in the belly of the fish were cleaned in an instant.

28 seconds!

A new record is born!

With a long sigh of relief, Wan Hongzhuang couldn't recover from this afterglow for a long time, but just washed away all the blood stains on the knife in the sink on the side, and then picked up a clean rag next to him, wiped the blade of the knife repeatedly, and put it back in the knife holder.

Everyone looked at him in a daze, unable to say a word for a long time.

"Why are you still stunned, hold on!"

Seeing that everyone was stunned, Wan Hongzhuang's face couldn't help but show a wry smile, and all the feelings returned at this moment...... He even had a hunch that the grilled fish he was going to make next would be the pinnacle of his culinary career!

It's like pressing the restart button again, and the whole kitchen instantly becomes hot again.

Wan Hongzhuang stayed quietly by the stove, looking at everything in front of him distractedly, but his eyes slowly became firm.

"I can't tell, you really have a few brushes!" Xiaoxue's face was full of excitement and cautiously came to his side.

"That's natural...... Wan Hongzhuang's face also showed a knowing smile, "What's the matter, it's busy outside?" ”

Xiaoxue nodded, "Somehow today, there are not many guests, except for a few tables that are still eating, there are no new guests for the time being, so I let Xiaoli and them stare at first!" ”

Wan Hongzhuang nodded, "But then again, how did you find out about this news and not be scolded by the boss?" ”

Xiaoxue's face was arrogant, "How can I be scolded, on the contrary, he praised me for doing a good job!" ”

Wan Hongzhuang's face was full of shock, "This ...... How can it be! How did you do that? ”

"You don't understand that, do you? Or do you beg me? If you ask me, I'll tell you! Xiaoxue's face was full of arrogance, obviously eating Wan Hongzhuang.

Wan Hongzhuang shook his head with a wry smile, "Okay, listen to you, I beg you, please tell me, how did you do it?" ”

"That's pretty much it!"

Xiaoxue replied with a smile: "Then I will be merciful and tell you how I did it!" ”

Wan Hongzhuang nodded, looking at her expectantly.

"Actually, I was ready to be scolded, but I think, after all, there are so many leaders there, as long as you have a softer tone and a more sincere attitude, the boss will probably not attack on the spot...... As for the matter of settling accounts after the autumn, as long as things are done, blame will also blame! ”

"But when I was almost on the second floor, there were two leaders who happened to be smoking at the door, and while smoking, they were talking about the purpose of their coming here today, so I squatted at the staircase and listened to everything."

"It's lucky, and it has something to do with the problem we had earlier."
