The art of cooking?

Ning Zhijun said disdainfully: "Lin Chen, don't be pretentious, you are a door-to-door son-in-law, and you are also worthy of talking about the art of cooking in front of Chef Angxing?" ”

"When it comes to cooking, can you beat them?"

"Of course, Mr. Hugo, if you taste it, I think you'll understand what I mean." Lin Chen made a gesture of please again.

Hugo looked suspicious, but finally decided that, out of politeness, he would taste it once.

After all, this Lin Chen has solved a wish for him that has lasted for decades.

Frowning, Hugo picked a foie gras salad from the scene.

Foie gras is one of his favorite foods, and this dish is also a great test of the quality of the ingredients.

Is Lin Chen's talent really as he said, as long as he eats a bite of foie gras, Hugo has the confidence to make a judgment.

Put a small piece of foie gras in his mouth and Hugo chewed slowly.

Suddenly, his eyes froze, and his originally frowning brow gradually became relaxed.

"This ......"

To his surprise, on this dish, Hugo tasted something other than foie gras.

It seems to be a sauce, moderately salty, with the taste of foie gras, and with every bite, a wonderful taste bursts out in Hugo's mouth, and this experience is the first time Hugo has enjoyed it.

In addition to this, the cooking of the foie gras, and the temperature of the salad, all of which work perfectly with the flavor.

At first, Hugo thought that this dish should be the same dish as the chefs of the Xinning Group, but now it seems that the two dishes are completely different in taste, except that they look similar to the dishes.

Of course, when it comes to the merits, the taste of these two dishes is actually a winner or a loser.

But in Hugo's personal opinion, although the taste is not a winner or a loser, in his heart, there is already a winner and a loser.

Compared with the dishes made by Xinning's Group that only rely on the freshness of ingredients, Lin Chen's foie gras salad gives Hugo a new feeling, which is obviously better.

Judgment in his heart, Hugo's cooking of Lin Chen has also changed from a reluctant attempt to a little eager to taste the next delicacy.

This time, he simply started with the first course and tasted it in order.

As a result, Hugo's face was full of enjoyment.

Seeing that Hugo actually tasted one dish after another, on the side, Ning Yingran suddenly showed joy on her face, and her previous sadness was swept away.

But Ning Zhijun's brother and sister's faces changed color.

What they couldn't ignore was that Hugo not only began to eat the dishes served by Lin Chen, but he even ate a dish completely at one time!

This is something that several chefs of Xinning's Group could not do before!

You must know that Hugo eats, in order not to affect his appetite, he has always only eaten half full.

The only time an exception was made was only in Lin Chen's bowl of clear soup noodles.

But that time, it was because Lin Chen's clear soup noodles perfectly restored the taste of the clear soup noodles that Hugo's grandfather had eaten, and there were many emotional factors in it.

But this time, the situation is very different.

It was obviously a dish that Hugo had already eaten, but he tasted it again and ate every dish?

What does this mean?

Doesn't this mean that the dishes served by Lin Chen this time are, in the eyes of Hugo, better than those made by several Michelin-starred chefs of Xinning Group?

How is this possible?

The three-star Michelin chefs at the scene suddenly widened their eyes.

No way!

That's impossible!

Just use those high-quality ingredients in the hotel, how can it be better than theirs?

At this time, everyone saw that Hugo's goal had shifted to the dish of boiling water cabbage.

As the head chef of the previous dish, Ang Xing's eyes immediately widened, wanting to see Hugo's reaction.

You must know that for this dish, Ang Xing had prepared it for several hours in advance, just to make the soup for this dish.

And just now, when Lin Chen was making this dish, it only took less than an hour.

You must know that the dish of boiling water cabbage is actually a home-cooked dish, but Ang Xing can serve it to the state banquet table by relying on the complicated soup boiling process.

The soup that Lin Chen only took a few dozen minutes to cook, how could it be compared to his hard work for several hours.

However, to Angxing's surprise, Hugo not only ate this dish again, but also directly picked up the soup bowl and ate it all in a big gulp!

After eating, Hugo seemed to know his gaffe, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry everyone, it seems to be a bit rude just now, but Mr. Lin's dish is too delicious!" ”

"I must admit that Mr. Lin's dishes are simply beyond my imagination, Mr. Lin, how exactly did you do it? Your ingredients can't be better than those of Xinning's Group, right? With inferior ingredients, but to achieve a taste that can be comparable or even surpassed, your cooking level is really amazing! ”

Hugo's words made the others look incredulous.

"Monsieur Hugo, you're not joking, are you? How could his dishes be better than those made by Chef Ang Xing? Ning Zhijun immediately questioned.

But Hugo smiled and said: "Mr. Ning, if you don't believe it, you can taste it yourself, I have left some for this last sea shrimp, you can taste it." I'm sure you'll agree with me after you taste it. ”

Without waiting for Ning Zhijun to stretch out his hand, Ang Xing was the first to pick up the fork.

Hugo said that he was not as good as others, but he could not accept it at all, and he had to taste it himself.

Putting a bite of shrimp meat in his mouth, Ang Xing began to chew slowly.

When the taste of shrimp meat bloomed on his taste buds, Ang Xing's expression became extraordinarily exciting.

Because in this taste, he actually tasted a special taste that he had never tasted before.

This flavor does not hide the original sweetness of the shrimp meat, but mixes with it to create a new flavor.

This kind of taste, Ang Xing has never experienced.

Seeing the rich expression on Ang Xing's face, the others also made a move and reacted quickly.

Some people rejoice, some people are disappointed, and some people admire.

"Monsieur Hugo, that's what I call the art of cooking."

Seeing their confused faces, Lin Chen opened his mouth to explain: "Everyone, I want to ask you, why was the original cooking born? ”

Without waiting for everyone to answer, Lin Chen asked himself: "Obviously, cooking was born because we humans knew that processing food can make food more delicious. That's how cooking was born! ”

Therefore, the starting point of cooking is actually to process and season the ingredients, so that the food has a different taste from the original. This is the essence of cooking, and it is also the art of cooking. ”
