Catering God

Chapter 105 Chen Jingyu's Mysterious Reward
"Dead fish, it's almost done, come to the kitchen."

After Jiang Feng prepared the food in the kitchen, he called Chen Jingyu in.

Chen Jingyu was wearing furry slippers. As soon as she entered the kitchen, she saw a pot of garlic sprouts, prepared onions, ginger and garlic. There was also a piece of pork belly being cooked in a boiling pot with some ginger slices and onion segments floating in it.

Chen Jingyu opened her arms to make it easier for Jiang Feng to help her put on the apron, and asked curiously:
"What are you going to teach me to cook?"

“Twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts.”

This is a very classic Hanchuan home-cooked dish.

Jiang Feng could have taught Chen Jingyu how to make a quick cold dish like smashed cucumber, but he didn't plan to do that.

Even if you are learning to cook, you have to be serious about it.

If it was just to perfunctorily complete the task of "one person cooking a dish" for this dinner party, it would be better not to do it and just let Jiang Feng help her.

Jiang Feng quickly helped her tie the belt of her apron.

Start teaching.

"Twice-cooked pork, as the name suggests, is made by slicing the cooked pork belly and then stir-frying it. It becomes softer and more flavorful, and the fat is lost during the boiling and stir-frying process, so it's not too greasy..."

As Jiang Feng spoke, he took out the cooked pork belly and sliced it.

Jiang Feng cut the meat himself, so of course he couldn't let Chen Jingyu do it. If he accidentally cut the rich woman's hand, Chen Tiankuo would fight him to the death in minutes.

Chen Jingyu watched Jiang Feng chopping the meat like a curious baby: "Why can't you slice it in advance and then cook it?"

“Because it’s hard to cut that way…”

Soon, Jiang Feng cut the meat.

Jiang Feng planned to show it to Chen Jingyu first, and then let her operate it herself.

Heat oil in a pan, pour out the hot oil, replace it with cold oil, and then directly pour in the pork belly slices. Soon, you will hear a "crackling" sound in the pan.

"This step is to heat the pan and cool the oil to keep the pan warm so it won't stick..."

As Jiang Feng spoke, he turned his head and found that Chen Jingyu had actually hidden at the door.

She was pulling at the door frame of the transparent sliding door, looking at the scene in the kitchen, her little face full of caution.

"No, don't be afraid."

Jiang Feng suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He had just put the meat in the pan to fry, and Chen Jingyu was scared away by the noise of frying in the pan.

Jiang Feng dragged the very reluctant Timid Yu into the kitchen and took out his secret weapon from the plastic bag on the ground.

"Haha, luckily I was prepared..."

First, put a pair of thin plastic kitchen gloves and a uniquely shaped Ultraman mask on Chen Jingyu.

fully armed!

No more worrying about oil splashing out.

Jiang Feng bought this Ultraman mask for three dollars on the road.

A pair of beautiful eyes appeared from the holes in Ultraman's mask, blinking and looking a little cute.

"Well, armed to the teeth, don't be afraid of getting splashed with oil."

Jiang Feng turned around and stir-fried the pork belly slices until 60% of the fat was released and the meat slices had slightly charred, dark yellow spots.

"The success of twice-cooked pork depends on whether you can fry the pork slices into this kind of "lantern nest"."

Then pour out some of the oil, tilt the pot, put the bean paste directly into it and start stir-frying. After the oil turns red, add the onion, ginger and garlic.

Stir fry together with the meat slices.

Add a small spoonful of white sugar and a line of light soy sauce along the edge of the pot to release the caramel aroma.

“You don’t need to add extra salt to this dish because the flavor of the fermented black bean paste and light soy sauce is enough.”

Finally, add the garlic stalks and stir-fry, then add the garlic leaves and stir-fry until cooked.

A pot of pork belly is freshly baked.

The shiny, slightly curly fat with skin mixed with the emerald green garlic sprouts filled the entire kitchen with fragrance.

Jiang Feng picked up a piece of pork belly with chopsticks, lifted the Ultraman mask, and put it into Chen Jingyu's mouth.

Then put on the mask.

The mask moved, obviously chewing.

"Is it delicious?"

"good to eat!"

Chen Jingyu's eyes lit up.

The pork belly looks very oily, but it is actually not greasy at all. It is glutinous and fragrant, solid and strong in the mouth. The more you chew it, the more fragrant it becomes.

Jiang Feng took out the fried pork belly, washed the pot, turned around and said to Chen Jingyu:

"It's your turn now. We'll eat whatever you cook tonight."

"Uh-huh!"

The two small holes on Ultraman's mask actually revealed his determination to never give up until his goal was achieved.

But three minutes later...

"Jiang Feng, I'm scared..."

The pork belly was being stir-fried in the pot, but Chen Jingyu was holding the spatula and trying to escape.

Even Ultraman's mask showed a hint of panic and pity.

"No, we can't give up halfway..."

Jiang Feng showed no mercy. He stopped Chen Jingyu, grabbed her arm from behind, and taught her how to cook.

Chen Jingyu was locked up and had no choice but to do as she was told.

Although the range hood was on, the smell of cooking fumes in the kitchen was still very strong. However, Jiang Feng, leaning against Chen Jingyu's body, could smell a faint scent of lavender shower gel.

"Hey, don't move around, and don't stick your butt out and arch your back..."

Jiang Feng felt very troubled because of Chen Jingyu moving around in his arms.

"Oh……"

With Jiang Feng's hands-on teaching, finally, a not-so-perfect twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts was ready.

"Have you learned it?"

Facing Jiang Feng's question, Chen Jingyu nodded rapidly: "I've given up studying, I've given up studying!"

Then he opened his big eyes and looked at Jiang Feng.

"Can I go out for dinner then? I've learned."

Jiang Feng shook his head: "I taught you step by step just now, it doesn't count. This time you have to do it yourself."

Chen Jingyu: Σ(｀д′*ノ)ノ

In the end, I did it twice more.

Jiang Feng took a breath and looked at the twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts that was almost 70% of his level. He finally nodded:

“It tastes pretty good…”

He had prepared the seasonings for Chen Jingyu in advance. The taste was actually similar, the main difference was the heat.

The same dish, the same ingredients and the same seasonings, when cooked by two people, will definitely taste different.

Jiang Feng was already very satisfied with this.

For a novice cook like Chen Jingyu who can't even cook wontons, it's already very good to reach this level.

It's a bit nitpicking to ask a novice cook to control the heat.

Jiang Feng clapped his hands, "Okay, you've passed today."

Ultraman beside him finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she looked up at Jiang Feng: "Can we eat now?"

"Okay, you go out and rest first, I'll cook two more dishes."

talking.

Jiang Feng took off the Ultraman mask for Chen Jingyu.

I saw that her delicate little face had become very red, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

Jiang Feng wiped her sweat and said with a smile: "Take off your gloves quickly, go out and wash your face and wait for dinner. Look at you, you almost look like a little cat."

Chen Jingyu has always paid more attention to her image. When she heard this, she immediately ran out to wash her face.

Jiang Feng went back to work, using two pots at the same time, quickly stir-fried a plate of spicy and sour potato shreds, and made a bowl of soup with tomatoes and eggs.

In line with the virtue of not wasting food, Jiang Feng put the several servings of twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts that he had fried earlier into lunch boxes, paired them with rice, and sent them out to the security guards as dinner.

He had anticipated this situation, so he cooked a little more rice.

"Stop watching TV, it's time to eat."

After delivering the meal, Jiang Feng returned to the apartment, called out to the man who was still watching TV on the sofa, and went into the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Chen Jingyu immediately jumped off the sofa and walked over quickly in slippers. It was obvious that she wanted to lend a hand. She followed Jiang Feng around and finally only took two pairs of chopsticks.

"I've been in Handu for so long, and I can finally have a bite of home-cooked food."

Jiang Feng said.

We usually eat too much in the cafeteria and restaurants, so we can see how valuable this home-cooked meal is.

Chen Jingyu tasted the twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts that she had made herself and nodded seriously:
"Look, I'm quite talented at cooking."

"Really? Then you don't have to wear that Ultraman mask when you cook tomorrow, right? Do you want me to throw it away for you?"

The Ultraman mask is now on the table.

Chen Jingyu glanced at the mask and then sighed.

"It's better to keep it. After all, I've been using it for a long time and have developed feelings for it."

Jiang Feng's face was filled with black lines.

I wore it for over an hour, and I still feel weird...

After dinner, Jiang Feng went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, took some fruit out of the refrigerator, cut it and put it on a plate.

When I came out, Chen Jingyu was already curled up on the sofa watching TV.

"Eat fruit." Jiang Feng walked closer and found that Chen Jingyu was actually watching Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf.

So I put the fruit plate on the coffee table, put a piece of orange in my mouth, and sat down comfortably to watch TV.

"You're already an adult, and you still watch Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf..."

The children's channel is currently airing the hit show "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Goat Games", which also fits the theme of this year's Olympics.

Jiang Feng had never really watched this series of landmark domestic animations, because the first one was released in 05, and he was already past the age of watching cartoons by then.

In the past two years, Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf has been very well-known, mainly because the popular meme "If you want to get married, marry Big Bad Wolf" has spread on the Internet. Many adults who don't watch cartoons also know this cartoon.

But to be honest, Jiang Feng could actually see into it.

Just as he was watching with great interest.

My arms suddenly felt heavy.

He looked down and saw Chen Jingyu putting her feet into his arms.

Jiang Feng looked at Chen Jingyu who was lying on the sofa with doubt, but she said:

"To thank you for teaching me how to cook, I'll reward you by letting you play with your feet today."

After resting for such a long time, Chen Jingyu's originally rosy face gradually returned to her usual cold expression.

But because I was lying on the sofa, I felt a little more lazy.

With such a beautiful face, she said these words in a cold and lazy manner.

Do you know how destructive it is?

Jiang Feng felt as if his chest had been hit hard, and he quickly turned his internal energy to suppress the restlessness in his heart.

Gradually calming down, he said seriously:

"You idiot, if you want a massage, just tell me directly. Don't beat around the bush. Do you think everyone wants to touch your feet? If I weren't your good friend, I wouldn't provide you with such a free and thoughtful service."

Jiang Feng mumbled a lot of things, and seemed to be very resistant to Chen Jingyu's statement of "playing with feet".

But his hands were very honest and pinched the little feet that came into his arms, and he skillfully peeled off the socks.

No lining this time.

However, the smooth and white little feet still feel very good.

Chen Jingyu turned around, propped up her little face to look at the TV, and sighed.

She seemed to feel helpless for her good friend who was poor and loved playing with her feet.

Rest time always passes very quickly.

Jiang Feng looked at the time and saw it was already half past nine in the evening, so he said to Chen Jingyu, "I'm going back to school. Are you staying here today, or going back to the dormitory?"

"I want to go back to the dormitory."

The conditions here are much better than in the dormitory, but Chen Jingyu still wants to go back to the dormitory.

Jiang Feng was not surprised at all.

Chen Jingyu used to always keep to herself and was used to being alone.

But things are different now.

Although there is no soft big bed, refrigerator full of snacks, game console, DVD player, or TV in the dormitory... there are Gao Jiayuan, Liu Fang, and Xue Mei.

Jiang Feng gradually realized.

Chen Jingyu finally has more than one friend.

"Then get up, I'll take you back."

Jiang Feng smiled and was sincerely happy for the dead fish.

Chen Jingyu sat up, shook her fair skin twice, and motioned Jiang Feng to help her put on her socks.

Jiang Feng curled his lips: "You are so lazy now that you are too lazy to even wear socks."

"It wasn't me who took it off, it was you who took it off. Shouldn't you be responsible for helping me put it on?"

Chen Jingyu tilted her head and asked Jiang Feng back.

Then she shook her little feet twice to urge him on.

Hiss... Jiang Feng took a deep breath and was unable to refute.

When did the dead fish become so smart?

Can stimulating the acupoints under the feet improve IQ?
It seems that he still needs to massage the dead fish more often in the future.

Master Jiang's craftsmanship is simply amazing.

Jiang Feng believed it and nodded.

As a result, as soon as the two arrived at the parking lot, they received a call from Gao Jiayuan.

"Jingyu, are you and Jiang Feng back tonight?"

"Well, be right back."

"That's great. Please bring me some midnight snacks from the barbecue stall outside the school."

"it is good."

Jiang Feng's eyes twitched.

A few days ago, I heard Gao Jiayuan shouting that she wanted to lose weight. Eating barbecue was fake, and checking up on her was the real reason.

I can only say that Eunuch Yuan is still conscientious and responsible.

He muttered a few words in his heart, but saw Chen Jingyu looking straight at him, blinking her beautiful eyes, with a hint of anticipation:

"Jiang Feng, Yuanyuan said she wants to eat barbecue."

"I heard..." Jiang Feng could see Chen Jingyu's thoughts and pointed them out directly: "Aren't you very happy because you now have a legitimate reason to have a midnight snack."

Chen Jingyu's eyes widened in surprise, "You actually stole my idea!"

……

The next day.

Everyone came to Chen Jingyu's apartment together.

Four girls and three boys.

In addition to Huang Hao, Jiang Feng also called Tang Wenjun.

After all, not only have he and Chen Jingyu known each other for a long time, they are also colleagues.

Zhou Xiaoming and Lu Cheng were too busy, so they didn't call them.

You know, these past two days, Zhou Xiaoming was very busy reaping the fruits of victory left by Xu Tao, and Lu Cheng also came to help.

Tang Wenjun also took a break from his busy schedule and followed Jiang Feng here to have a meal.

Everyone was holding a dish in their hands, because we had agreed that each person would prepare a dish.

In the elevator, Gao Jiayuan said excitedly, "Today I must show you how amazing Chef Gao is!"

If it weren't for Huang Hao being in a relationship, he would have been holding hands with Xue Mei in the elevator. However, because of his straight man nature, he was very nervous and didn't dare to move.

Arrived at the floor.

Everyone walked out of the elevator.

Jiang Feng had specifically reminded Chen Jingyu's bodyguards not to hold a welcoming ceremony here today, otherwise it would ruin the atmosphere.

Chen Jingyu walked so slowly that she was not suitable to lead the way, so Jiang Feng took the lead and walked to the front to open the door.

The key was placed openly on the cabinet at the door.

Don't ask why they are not afraid of thieves. This floor belongs to the Chen family. The corridor is equipped with 360-degree surveillance without blind spots. Whenever a stranger breaks into this floor, within a minute, a tall security guard in a suit will come out to check the situation.

Slippers have already been prepared in the shoe cabinet.

Everyone changed into slippers and walked into the apartment one after another.

"Wow, there's a cloakroom."

“This room is so beautiful.”

"There are too many clothes and bags here."

The girls were busy visiting Chen Jingyu's room and dressing room. After seeing the exquisite decorations and the wardrobe full of gorgeous clothes, they kept exclaiming in admiration.

Huang Hao and Tang Wenjun were attracted by the various game consoles in the living room. Looking at the wall of game cartridges, they were so shocked that they were speechless and couldn't wait to plug in the power and play a few games.

Everyone goes into the kitchen to work in the order they are supposed to make, first hot dishes, then cold dishes.

Because the kitchen space is not big, too many people can't fit in at once.

"Come on, let me, Chef Gao, take the lead!"

Gao Jiayuan rolled up her sleeves and took out a chef's hat borrowed from the Western Pastry Club from her bag. Putting it on her head, she really looked like a chef.

Huang Hao used Jiang Feng's Canon compact camera, which had been left idle in the dormitory, to record the party.

Most likely it was Xue Mei who came up with the idea.

She was standing in front of the camera, using a carrot as a microphone:

"I'm our reporter Xue Mei, bringing you continued coverage... This year's cooking competition has officially begun, and first up is Chef Gao... Chef Gao, what are you planning to cook today?"

"Beer-roasted duck... Oops, where's my beer? Liu Fang, is my beer with you?"

Looking at Gao Jiayuan busy in the corner, laughter suddenly came from the living room.

"Chef Gao has been exposed."

Right from the start, a lot of problems arose.

Xue Mei sighed in front of the camera and said helplessly:

"Because Chef Gao didn't bring enough ingredients, her beer-roasted duck will be changed to potato-roasted duck...and the potatoes were snatched from this reporter's boyfriend."

"Oh, I just lent your boyfriend a few potatoes. Stop nagging me." Gao Jiayuan's voice came from the kitchen.

A group of college students crowded in an apartment, chatting, playing video games and cooking, making this ordinary weekend more lively than a holiday.

Jiang Feng folded his arms, watching the movements in the kitchen, and then said to Chen Jingyu beside him: "It will be your turn later. Do you have confidence?"

"Ok!"

Chen Jingyu nodded.
