Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

Chapter 233 Can I become your teacher?
in the kitchen.

Chef Ge was focusing on the hibiscus flower crabs in the pot. As the oil smoke rose, his face turned slightly red.

The frying spatula in your hand flies like a butterfly, skillfully blending the ingredients and seasonings together.

At this moment, the hibiscus flower crab in the pot is gradually blooming with an attractive color. The deliciousness of the crab meat and the delicacy of the "hibiscus" are perfectly blended under the catalysis of high temperature, exuding an intoxicating aroma.

at this time.

The sliding door of the kitchen made an almost imperceptible mechanical sound, and then slowly and silently opened.

As the door opens, a soft light slips in lightly from the crack of the door, accompanied by a breath of fresh air, breaking the original concentration in the kitchen...

Huh?
Who's coming in?

The frying shovel in Chef Ge's hand paused slightly at this moment. His mind that was originally focused on the pot was also attracted by this sudden movement, and he curiously wanted to find out who it was!

therefore!

Don't ask him why he is so confident!
This confidence is not blindly arrogant, but stems from his years of cooking experience and superb skills, as well as the endless praise from diners.

He said this, but he knew in his heart that he had cooked this dish to perfection, and Huang Jun would definitely not be able to fault it.

"Okay, I will definitely try it later." Huang Jun leaned closer to the pot and carefully observed Chef Ge's hibiscus flower crab. His eyes showed admiration: "As for giving advice, your dish is already perfect. Well, I guess I can’t make any constructive suggestions.”

Chef Ge laughed loudly and continued with a cheerful face: "This hibiscus flower crab is a relatively traditional dish and has always been my specialty. My boss Liu and his family especially like to eat it. You should try it later." Give me your feedback and see where I can improve.”

What does Chef Huang mean when he comes over?

"I just went to the bathroom, and when I came back and passed by, I smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but come in and take a look." Huang Jun responded with a smile: "Chef Ge, you are making hibiscus flower crab!"

When he saw clearly that the person coming was Huang Jun, a look of surprise flashed across Chef Ge's face.

With a happy mood, he complimented Huang Jun: "Chef Huang, your nose is really good! You can smell the aroma of this hibiscus flower crab from a long distance. I really admire you!"

After a moment of surprise, his expression quickly changed to full of curiosity.

He subconsciously looked sideways, and his eyes involuntarily turned to the door that gradually opened.

Do you want to see his cooking skills with your own eyes?

Otherwise, Chef Huang wouldn't have come here specially.

It should be!

Huang Jun responded with a humble smile: "No, no, Chef Ge, your craftsmanship is really amazing. I just happened to pass by and was attracted by the alluring aroma."

This should be regarded as a recognition of his cooking skills, right? !
Listening to Huang Jun's words, Chef Ge couldn't help but feel a wave of pride in his heart. The corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, and his eyes shone like lightning.

"Looking at your dish, it's very white. It's clearly stir-fried with care, and it's definitely not a random oil. I also saw that minced ginger is added to it, so that the umami flavor of the swimming crab can be better highlighted."

Many people who might appear flashed through his mind, but he didn't expect Huang Jun to appear at this moment.

Huh?
Why did Chef Huang come over suddenly?
Saying.

He was looking forward to Huang Jun’s admiration after tasting it!

Chef Ge's brows were raised slightly, with a complicated light shining in his eyes, but he still maintained a polite and friendly attitude, and said to Huang Jun: "Chef Huang, why are you in the kitchen? There is a lot of fumes here, you'd better go to the living room and sit for a while. , my dish will be ready soon, and the meal can be served in a moment. ”

I don’t know if I don’t see it…

“What’s even better is that you also incorporated fresh clams into it. This combination...is really ingenious...it makes the whole dish richer in texture and more distinct in levels!"

Yo~
Not bad, Chef Huang!
Your vision is really unique, and you have seen through all these cooking ingenuities!
It seems... your cooking skills are indeed as good as the rumors say, it's hard not to admire you!
Chef Ge was a little surprised and looked at Huang Jun with admiration in his eyes: "Chef Huang is really attentive. You are right. Pure egg white can indeed increase the smoothness and tenderness of dishes, but if you want to completely simulate crab meat, you are right." The delicious taste is still lacking. ”

"Therefore, I deliberately added fresh clams, which not only enhances the richness of the taste, but also makes the taste of egg white closer to the real taste of crab meat."

At this moment, the hibiscus flower crab in the pot is almost ready to be taken out of the pot. Chef Ge is adjusting the heat to ensure that the ingredients can bring out the best taste every minute and every second.

Seeing him pick up the dinner plate on the side, Huang Jun couldn't help but ask: "Chef Ge, are you going to cook this hibiscus flower crab like this?"

Chef Ge raised his head and asked in confusion: "Yes, Chef Huang, do you think there is anything else that needs to be adjusted?"

"When the pot is out of the pot, I suggest you slide a little vinegar on the side of the pot." Huang Jun put forward his own suggestion, "Your ginger already has the taste of ginger. If you add a little vinegar and slide it on the side of the pot, the taste will be better." It’s even more perfect.”

Chef Ge was stunned for a moment.

This dish has been carefully improved and tried countless times by him. Every step and every seasoning has been carefully considered before finally achieving what he considers to be the perfect texture and taste.

But Huang Jun's suggestion seems to reveal that there is still room for improvement in this dish.

If he has never tasted Huang Jun's unforgettable meat buns, if he has not heard Huang Jun's insightful comments, he may dismiss such suggestions, or think that they are a reflection of his hard work. Groundless doubt.

but now. Huang Jun's suggestion was like a mirror, forcing him to re-examine his dishes. It also made him reflect on whether his dishes were really perfect, or whether there was room for improvement.

After all, cooking is a never-ending art, and even a seemingly perfect dish may hide room for further improvement.

But he also understands that every attempt and change comes with risks.

He was worried that if Huang Jun's suggestion was adopted, the original balance of the dish might be destroyed.

But at the same time, he also understands that only by having the courage to try can we continue to make progress and go further on the road of cooking.

Think about it.

Thinking about it.

He decided to take a chance and try Huang Jun's suggestion.

This is not only a challenge to my own cooking skills, but also a respectful response to Huang Jun's suggestions.

Even if it fails!
At worst, it’s just a redo!

He smiled and said: "I have put a lot of effort into improving this Hibiscus Flower Crab dish, but I also know that the road to cooking will never end. Chef Huang, your suggestions may help this dish." It brings new possibilities and I am willing to try them.”

As he spoke, he picked up the vinegar bottle and turned his wrist slightly, and the vinegar liquid slipped around the edge of the pot like a thin thread.

This action seems to inject a new soul into the hibiscus flower crab in the pot, immediately releasing a more charming aroma.

The fragrance of vinegar is intertwined with the deliciousness of hibiscus flower crab and the smoothness of fluffy egg liquid, forming an indescribable aroma...

"Ah...it smells so good. This fragrance is far better than what I had before!"

As the aroma entered his nose, Chef Ge couldn't help but take a few deep breaths. His eyes shone with anticipation. He eagerly picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of hibiscus flower crab into his mouth.

That moment...

The extremely smooth "hibiscus" and the delicious crab roe and crab meat are intertwined on the tip of the tongue.

The sourness of the vinegar blends harmoniously with the fresh aroma of the hibiscus flower crab. The sourness of the vinegar is just right, highlighting the sweetness of the crab meat and adding a fresh and refreshing taste.

The meat of hibiscus crab is tender and delicate, with a smooth texture, which complements the aroma of vinegar, making the whole dish rich in layers, intoxicating, and endless aftertaste...

After tasting it, he was completely amazed.

Originally, he was worried that this attempt would be unsatisfactory, but he didn't expect it to be so successful and bring about earth-shaking changes to his dish.

What does this show?

This is enough to show that Huang Jun's cooking skills are indeed superior to his.

Not only does he have a solid foundation in cooking techniques, but his suggestions are both original and effective and can significantly enhance the taste and quality of dishes.

Now, he was completely impressed by Huang Jun's cooking skills, and his previous thoughts of showing off his cooking skills in front of Huang Jun and crushing Huang Jun disappeared.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to!
But his strength doesn’t allow it!
At the same time, an idea quietly emerged in his mind.

"Indeed, this improved version is better than my previous one!"

Chef Ge looked surprised and nodded with satisfaction. He immediately looked at Huang Jun, his eyes full of gratitude and respect, and said seriously: "Chef Huang, your suggestions are really insightful and have benefited me a lot. I will ask you again in the future." Please give me your advice so that I can continue to improve on the road of cooking and create more delicious dishes..."

After hearing Ge Chu's words, Huang Jun said with a smile: "We are all peers, teaching each other and making progress together."

For chefs, it is indeed a pleasure to discuss cooking skills with each other and make progress together, and Huang Jun is naturally very happy about this.

but.

What Huang Jun didn't expect was that Chef Ge beside him shook his head and said seriously: "Chef Huang, you misunderstood me."

"My boss, Mr. Liu, said before that your cooking is very delicious. Compared to me, it's even worse. I still don't believe it."

“When you gave me the suggestion about hibiscus flower crab just now, I was even worried that it would make my dish look bad and turn upside down.”

"But after I tasted it carefully just now, I realized how accurate your suggestions were, which improved the taste of my dish."

"Now it seems that, as Director Liu said, there is indeed a big gap between my cooking skills and yours."

He paused and looked at Huang Jun with eyes that suddenly became intense: "Chef Huang, can I become your teacher? I want to learn from you and further improve my cooking skills."

boom!
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder in the clear sky, directly knocking Huang Jun out of his wits!
At the same time, Liu Shiwei, who had just come after smelling the fragrance, was stunned by these sudden words, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground with a "clang".
