Chapter 232: The phoenix-tailed leek
Renault's Chinese is already good, and it is particularly authentic, and as soon as this word came out, it suddenly narrowed the distance with everyone.
Besides, with Chen Yu here, everyone quickly became active.
At this moment, Renault suddenly spit out a mouthful of food that he had eaten in his mouth.
"What's going on? Have you changed the chef here? Why is this spicy chicken so unpalatable? ”
A waiter hurried over and apologized.
Renault's face was full of depression: "Every time I come to the East, I order food from you, and I am also the top VIP of your family, is this your attitude towards me?" ”
The waiter knew at a glance that it was a newcomer, and he didn't know what to do, but he apologized vigorously there, which made Renaud a little impatient.
Li Kaiquan also stood up: "I also think that today's dish is a little inauthentic, as if it is not the same person as the previous chef." ”
As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged man dressed like a dog walked out a little arrogantly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a new dish we have launched, and the taste is naturally different from before! Besides, the previous chef had already been fired for making a small mistake, but the new chef is a world-class chef who cooks much better food than before. ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they all turned their eyes to the middle-aged man.
This guy's pupils dilated suddenly, he didn't expect to see so many bigwigs in the imperial capital circle today.
The arrogance just now dissipated a little at once.
"Ouch, I really didn't expect you to come to the shop at the same time today, blame us for not greeting us well, but there shouldn't be anything wrong with the taste!"
Chen Yu also tasted a bite of spicy chicken at this moment.
According to his reasoning, the chef who made this dish should be a novice who has not mastered even the most basic things.
Renault was even more furious: "How can there be no problem? I find it unpalatable even as a foreigner! ”
The middle-aged man straightened his tie: "This gentleman, you must have some misunderstanding about Chinese food, our food here is the best ...... in the country"
"Not necessarily!" Jin Lingsu directly interrupted it: "The best chef in the country is sitting here, you dare to say that your dishes here are the best in the country!" It's really overwhelming. ”
A trace of disdain flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes: "This lady, are you talking about yourself?" ”
Jin Lingsu put the chopsticks aside and patted Chen Yu on the shoulder.
"This gentleman has participated in a world-class chef competition, and he has won the name of the god of cooking!"
The middle-aged man immediately locked his eyes on Chen Yu, and after looking up and down, he stepped forward proudly.
"A world-class chef, that must be from a Western background, and they all say that Chinese food here is different from Western food."
Chen Yu sighed lightly and slowly got up.
"The two old gentlemen came all the way from the West to get here, and they just wanted to eat a bite of authentic Chinese food, but I didn't expect your chef to be so lazy, and he just fried a few dishes casually!"
Chen Yu said a word without being salty, and then directly rolled up his sleeves and went to the back kitchen.
The middle-aged man suddenly became nervous: "What are you doing, the kitchen is heavy, outsiders are forbidden to enter!" ”
Chen Yu didn't care so much, his body flashed and went directly into the kitchen, but everything in front of him made him frown.
A few elderly cooks sat leisurely drinking tea, two or three teenagers wandered around the stove, and the rest were playing games on the side with their mobile phones.
How is it possible to make good dishes in such a kitchen?
Chen Yuqing coughed twice, and then walked straight to the stage.
The chefs who were drinking tea stood up suddenly.
"Who? Dare to casually enter our kitchen, come on, hurry up and get out! ”
Chen Yu didn't care so much, he directly picked up the kitchen knife by the stove, and took a few peeled potatoes at the same time.
In the blink of an eye, the potatoes were completely dismembered and became as thin as a hair.
This kind of knife work shocked all the chefs in the kitchen at once, especially the old chefs.
Knife work is no different from other stir-fry techniques, if you want to stir-fry a dish, you only need to control the heat, and remember the order and amount of ingredients.
But knife work is a basic skill that will accompany you for a lifetime.
For a knife like Chen Yu, the average chef would have to practice for fifty years to reach such a point.
But Chen Yu doesn't look like he's thirty years old, and it's not an exaggeration to call him a genius if he is enough to achieve such a knife work.
Before they could react, Chen Yu had already put the shredded potatoes into the pot, flipped them and stir-fried, and they came out of the pot in less than two minutes.
The rich aroma instantly spread in the kitchen, which surprised everyone present.
Renault couldn't wait to step forward and pick up a few shredded potatoes and put them in his mouth.
The crisp and mellow flavor instantly conquered his taste buds.
"It's so delicious, such a thin potato is not burned, which not only ensures the original taste of the potato, but also evenly covers the seasoning on each shredded potato."
This kind of judgment can be regarded as raising Chen Yu to a certain height, and other people also stepped forward to taste this shredded potato.
"Good knife work!"
As soon as I arrived, a deep voice suddenly sounded from the corner of the kitchen, and I saw an old man with a somewhat bloated figure walking slowly over with a teacup.
"I've never seen it easy to reach such a level at your age, but if you casually break into my kitchen, that's a provocation to me."
Chen Yu couldn't help frowning, he had a little impression of the old man in front of him, who almost dominated the front pages of major media more than ten years ago.
His cooking skills are among the top five in the world, especially his knife skills.
His favorite dish is anchovy leeks!
The leeks themselves were fine enough, but he was able to carve them in less than a minute.
"Dare to ask this, but Mr. Wen Zaichang!"
Chen Yu apologized to the other party very respectfully, which is also his respect for an old-timer in the chef world.
Unexpectedly, Wen Zaichang was extremely arrogant, he put the teacup in his hand aside, picked up a kitchen knife casually, and tore off a cabbage leaf with his hand.
When the kitchen knife turned quickly, the cabbage leaves quickly turned into strips, and in less than two minutes, the cabbage leaves, which looked extremely wide just now, were carved into the shape of a phoenix tail and placed neatly on the plate.
"Your kid's knife skills are good, and the dishes are fried very well, but it's a pity that you're still too young! When you can reach the level of an old man, come here again to be presumptuous! ”
