"What do you say?"

Hearing Qin Lang's inquiry, Su Henian blinked, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He almost thought he had misheard.

"If I can ask for outside help in this qualification battle, I may be able to help a little." Qin Lang spoke again, and his serious expression made Su He Nian sure that he was not joking.

"Foreign aid... Foreign aid! Su Henian showed a look of surprise.

It happened so suddenly, he really didn't expect that.

For Qin Lang's cooking skills, Su Henian naturally trusts him.

Song Hui had already mentioned to him things no less than Qin Lang, plus the honor of being the first in the youth group of the Leaping Fish Banquet, although Qin Lang was not an outstanding imperial spirit chef, Su Henian believed that he was no worse than a sick chef.

So here's the problem.

Is it possible to ask for outside help?

Su Henian showed a thoughtful look, and the rules of the qualification battle flashed in his mind.

Calming down, he showed his quick thinking as a restaurateur, but in a matter of seconds, he came up with a way to do it.

But that means that...

Su Henian only hesitated for a moment, and soon his expression became firm.

"There's a way!" He looked at Qin Lang seriously, "According to the rules of the qualification battle, the dishes cooked by the Imperial Spirit Chef dispatched by the restaurant must be dishes that are on the menu of the restaurant and have been sold for more than a month. ”

"The theme of this qualification battle is 'beef', which is a common theme, and there is a signature dish on our restaurant's menu called 'Lying Beef Thread', which is best suited to this theme."

"Before, the chef was going to use it for qualification."

"If you want, I can call the shots and give you the recipe for this dish as part of the reward for your help."

"But there's a catch, and that's I'm not sure you'll be able to learn this dish in a day." Su Henian glanced at Qin Lang with a bit of inquiry.

"This..."Qin Lang showed a thoughtful look.

He didn't want to reciprocate, and it was a surprise to be able to get a recipe for a signature dish at Breeze Restaurant.

Now the question is, as the signature dish of the Breeze Restaurant, this dish must be not easy to cook, can he master it in a short period of time?

"To be honest, I can't master it in a day without knowing the recipe." Qin Lang spoke honestly.

"That's right." Su Henian nodded clearly, "In that case, you can go with me to see Chef Zhong first, although he is sick and hospitalized, it should be no problem to communicate with you." ”

"He's the head chef of Breeze Restaurant, and I was going to pay a visit when I was sick and hospitalized, killing two birds with one stone."

"Okay." Qin Lang didn't have an opinion, "Then let's set off as soon as possible, there is not much time left for the restaurant." ”

…

"Chef Zhong, how are you feeling physically?"

Su Henian pushed open the door of the independent inpatient ward with the prepared fruit basket and walked towards the ward, Qin Lang silently followed behind him, looking at the chef who was sick and hospitalized.

It was a middle-aged man with gray hair and no beard, and when he saw Su Henian at this moment, a trace of surprise first appeared on his face, and then a deep sense of guilt.

"Manager Su, it's all because I'm not angry and have delayed the big event of the restaurant."

"Where." Su Henian waved his hand, not showing a trace of concern about the qualification battle, "Although the work is busy, the body is more important, don't worry, you are a work injury." ”

"As for the matter of the qualification battle..."Su Henian's voice paused slightly, pulled Qin Lang, who was standing behind him, to his side, and smiled.

"Let me introduce you, this is Qin Lang, a genius Imperial Spirit Chef from Dongxia City."

"Uncle Su praised it falsely." Qin Lang shook his head modestly, and then looked at Chef Zhong who was lying in bed in front of him, "Senior Zhong, hello." ”

"Hello, hello." Chef Zhong smiled politely, still with doubts in his eyes, obviously not understanding Su Henian's purpose of introducing Qin Lang at this moment.

"I plan to hand over the recipe of 'Lying Cow Silk' to Qin Lang, and he will participate in the next qualification battle." Su Henian simply informed Chef Zhong of his thoughts.

"No! Ahem..."

Chef Zhong glared at him, sat up abruptly, and then frowned and coughed twice, a little out of breath.

"Pay attention to your body!"

Su Henian was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Chef Zhong pat his body and calm down, and waited until Chef Zhong's face eased before explaining, "At the previous Leaping Fish Banquet, Qin Lang won the first place in the youth group. ”

"And when Qin Lang was in Tianhua Prefecture, it only took one or two months to obtain four second-level food recommender badges."

"That's not going to work either!"

Chef Zhong shook his head, not as emotional as before, but his tone was still firm.

He glanced at Qin Lang, and then slowly spoke, "I have heard of Qin Lang's little friend's honor of the leaping fish banquet. ”

"It's not that I don't trust Qin Lang's cooking skills."

"But according to the rules of the qualification battle, Qin Lang Xiaoyou can only take out the dishes that the restaurant already has, and he only has less than twenty-four hours to get in touch with the new dishes."

"And the dish of 'lying cow and silk' is not easy to cook."

"Rather than this, it is better to let Xu Qingzhong play, although he is only worthy of the title of excellent cook, but he has learned this dish from me for two months, and he has a good mastery."

"Xu Qingzhong has a pretty good grasp, but there is still a gap with you." Su Henian sighed, "Let him play, it's not very sure." ”

"It's all my fault." Chef Zhong sighed, a look of guilt on his face again, "If I hadn't been sick, everything would have gone well." ”

Qin Lang stood aside, feeling that it was necessary for him to speak at this time.

"Senior Zhong, any dish must have its difficulties, I believe that as the signature dish of the Breeze Restaurant, the 'Lying Cow Thread' must not be easy, but the difficulty of cooking dishes is nothing more than the basic skills of cooking."

"Dare to ask, what is the difficulty of the dish 'Lying Cow Thread'?"

"You can say this, but it means a little bit of simplification." Chef Zhong looked at Qin Lang seriously, with a hint of surprise on his face.

"Indeed, the difficulty of cooking any dish is directly related to the basic skills of cooking."

"As for the dish of 'Lying Cow Pulling Silk', the difficulties are mainly reflected in the knife work and heat, especially the former."

"It needs to cut the marinated beef into a hair-like thickness along the texture, so that the marinated flavor and the umami of the beef completely penetrate into the soup, and the stewed beef shredded beef is not weak and the taste is just right."

"I see." Qin Lang showed a thoughtful look, "So, as long as I show qualified knife skills, it's okay?" ”

Chef Zhong looked at Qin Lang seriously.

"If you can, then I will teach you the key points of this 'lying cow thread'."
