Following...

Qi Zhiyuan, Cui Mei, and Qi Xian'an sat in a circle around their dining table, their eyes looking at the man sitting due north and facing south at the same time.

With a big waist and a round waist, a fat head and big ears, shallow eyebrows and thin eyes, a cute look, a big belly, a light blue short-sleeved shirt worn close to his body, and the buttons in front of his abdomen, as if they were about to burst.

“... Also, in this restaurant, when business is good, the back kitchen is not idle for a moment. After standing up for a day, both legs are sore! At that level, you go to the hospital to get a knife on your leg, and you don't need to inject anesthetic! ”

Jin Tianchou said with emotion, the face full of fat was simply an expression every second.

"The police who manage the traffic are also standing every day, directing the road conditions at all times. Moreover, regardless of winter or summer, whether it is snow or rain, they stick to their posts rain or shine, and they stand all day. In contrast, the chef is much happier than them! ”

Qi Hao remained indifferent and said unhurriedly.

"The stove that heats the pot, you know? The temperature is particularly high! Standing in the kitchen on a hot summer day is like entering a sauna... Oh no... No, it should be like following up the microwave oven, especially sinful! ”

Jin Tianchou continued to give examples.

"The kitchen of the restaurant now should have air conditioning installed! Besides, even if there is no air conditioning, the level of heat is nothing compared to the steelmaking workers in the factory. Other workers, facing thousands of degrees of molten iron, boilers, and even threatening their lives at any time, they don't complain, so why do we have the face to talk about hard work? ”

"Uh..."

Jin Tianchou's words came to his lips, but he quickly swallowed them again.

The two eyes, which were squeezed by the fat and almost formed a line, looked disdainfully, and glanced at Qi Zhiyuan and the two who were sitting on the left side of the dining table, and he wanted to say to the two from the bottom of his heart: Your son, it's a bar spirit!

eased his emotions, and soon, Jin Tianchou continued to preach: "Even if you can overcome these external factors, the internal physical conditions are also necessary as a chef. ”

"For example..."

"Special taste!"

Hearing him say this, Qi Hao, who was sitting on the right side of the dining table, clasped his hands in front of his chest, did not make a sound, but only let out a slight sneer that was not easy to be noticed.

"Well, I'll give you an experiment later to see how talented you are at taste. After all, as a chef, he needs to have an extremely powerful taste system. Let's go to the bathroom to rinse my mouth first, and I'm here to prepare! ”

"Good!"

Qi Hao was still indifferent.

After the sound of the door closing from the bathroom, Cui Mei suddenly jumped to Jin Tianchou's side and whispered: "Master Jin, you must raise the difficulty, and you must discourage him from applying for the chef major!" ”

"Don't worry! The test I arranged for him this time was not easy even for a chef who has worked in a hotel for five or six years. He's a little house finch who hasn't received any training, and he can't do it! ”

As he spoke, Jin Tianchou took out a few labeled sauce bottles from the suitcase he had brought with him, and then took out a few clean plates.

He then poured a shallow spoonful of sauce into each dish.

After a series of operations were completed, Qi Hao also rinsed his mouth, came out of the bathroom, and sat back in his original position.

"In these bottles, there is shrimp paste marinated in different shrimps, and in the dishes in front of you are the sauces corresponding to various shrimp pastes. All you have to do is taste the soup and tell the different types of shrimp paste. ”

Because shrimp paste is a seasoning, it is not used much in ordinary people's homes, let alone taste different kinds of shrimp paste.

Besides, Cui Mei's family is still in the inland area, and the seafood they see every day is only a handful.

Therefore, as soon as the test questions came out, Cui Mei was immediately stunned for a moment, which was obviously making things difficult for people!

But soon, there was a burst of joy in her heart, and she sat upright, looking forward to Qi Hao's test.

"Ding!"

After tasting the shrimp soup on the first spoon, Qi Hao replied with ease:

"This is sweet shrimp paste, and it is also made of pickled sweet shrimp that has just begun to grow in May, and the sweet shrimp of this period are delicate and tender, and the shrimp meat is bright red in color and has a sweet taste!"

"What sweet shrimp? Have you seen it? ”

After Cui Mei heard this, she couldn't help but lean into Qi Zhiyuan's ear and asked curiously.

"You housewife who has been messing around in the kitchen all year round don't know, how can I know?"

Qi Zhiyuan also responded softly.

At the same time, Jin Tianchou tore open the paper that covered the label.

Sure enough, on the bottle about the size of a water cup, the words "sweet shrimp paste" were marked.

"Huh!"

Jin Tianchou was also stunned for a moment, and his eyes like lines obviously opened up a trace of space.

"Go on!"

I drank the saliva to get rid of the taste of the sweet shrimp paste.

"Ding!"

As the second spoon fell back into the plate, making a sound, the tip of Qi Hao's tongue squirmed slightly in his mouth, and he quickly said the type of shrimp paste in the second bottle.

"It's shrimp paste, the soup is saltier, fresher, and has a little flavor!"

Jin Tianchou peeled off the piece of paper that covered the label...

Sure enough, it's right again!

And then the third...

"Ding!"

"This is purple shrimp paste, the marinated condiments are relatively light, and it is usually cooked with pork to increase the umami of the dish!"

"Ding!"

"This is purple shrimp paste..."

"That's right again!"

When Jin Tianchou removed the label of the fourth glass bottle, he was almost stupid.

In the hotel on weekdays, those masters who have followed themselves for many years have to have a long buffer period after trying to guess the type of shrimp sauce.

But Qi Hao, basically, as soon as his tongue touched the shrimp soup, he was able to say it within two seconds, and the answers were all correct.

You know, compared with those masters, Qi Hao doesn't know what shrimp sauce is in the hotel at all.

But people are right!

So, in terms of taste, maybe he is even better than those masters!

"Genius!"

Jin Tianchou muttered, his eyes couldn't help but fall on Qi Hao, the arrogance when he looked at him before had completely turned into endless worship at this moment.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe that this kind of plot, which only appeared in fantasy novels, would be real in reality.

At the same time, seeing Qi Hao answering the names of these unheard of seasonings again and again, Qi Zhiyuan and Cui Mei were also surprised.

"Is he still our son?"

"I doubt it!"

"Since I was a child, I haven't eaten shrimp a few times, how can I tell so many shrimp pastes that I have never heard of by tasting shrimp soup?"

“......”

The husband and wife, you say everything I say, and they are speechless.

Just as Qi Hao was about to continue trying the fifth bottle of shrimp paste, Jin Tianchou suddenly stopped:

"Don't taste the fifth bottle, your sense of taste is really natural, maybe better than mine. You can go for the chef major, but out of a little selfishness, I still want to test your skills in the end..."
