So this year's National Day, even if Yao Shi unexpectedly asked for leave, no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
Even Dong Juntian didn't think much about it.
Fu Yu is going to participate in the chef competition on the eleventh day.
The manpower in the kitchen immediately became scarce.
Fortunately, Zhao Meng's tenosynovitis has improved significantly. Although he still can't turn a spoon, he can still take orders for cooking, stew, frying, steaming and other dishes normally.
In addition, Sun Qingning was beside him, so Zhang Jinyu followed suit.
Zhao Meng's order taking was not greatly affected.
As in previous years, on the day before National Day, all the kitchen staff worked overtime to prepare ingredients.
By the time all the dishes for the order were prepared, it was already late at night.
I don’t know if it’s because the official competition is tomorrow, so I’m a little too excited.
Fu Yu lay on the bed and couldn't sleep.
After struggling for a while, he simply looked through the classic recipes.
Originally he planned to study for a while and then sleep when he was tired, but when he accidentally turned to "Three Sets of Ducks", Fu Yu suddenly became energetic.
Good guy!
It turns out that there is even a recipe for "three sets of ducks"!
This classic old-fashioned recipe is simply amazing!
This "three sets of ducks" is not simple.
It is said to be extremely difficult to do.
Precisely because it is difficult to make, this dish has become a private dish in old restaurants in the place where it is produced.
Outsiders can eat it if they want, but they have no way to learn how to cook it.
Fu Yu first saw the description of three sets of ducks in Gu Long Da Xia.
A fragrant and delicious fat duck was opened, and inside was Gu Long's favorite fried chicken, and then cut open with a dagger, but it turned out to be a small squab.
Finally, the smiling beauty used a hairpin to pick out the crystal clear pigeon eggs from the belly of the squab and presented them to the hero. This dish was considered complete.
Fu Yu's impression of this dish was that it was so complicated to eat, and you could imagine how difficult it was to make.
Just one set of words can put many people off.
When he was in chef school, Fu Yu once wanted to try to make three sets of duck preparations in the practical class: without breaking the skin and bones.
As a result, only one duck was used, which made him realize how difficult this dish was to make and how poor his cooking skills were.
but now......
Fu Yu felt a little swollen!
How dare you learn three sets of duck cooking methods.
Even Yao Shi probably wouldn't dare try this dish, right?
Thinking of this, Fu Yu suddenly became more and more ready to make a move.
Simply sit up from the bed and study as if you are studying.
Fu Yu began to look carefully at the three sets of duck cooking methods.
[Three sets of duck: The "Tiao Ding Collection" of the Qing Dynasty recorded the specific method of making the duck: "Debone the fat duck, remove the bones from the salted duck, stuff them into the belly of the duck, steam them until they are very rotten, and serve them whole."
[Later, chefs in Yangzhou restaurants deboned wild ducks and stuffed them into domestic ducks, and deboned vegetable pigeons and stuffed them into wild ducks, creating the "Three Sets of Duck". Because of its unique flavor, it soon became famous throughout the country. 】
Fu Yu suddenly realized that there was actually a slight error in Gu Long's description. The authentic three sets of ducks were wild ducks set on domestic ducks and then pigeons set on each other. The three birds were linked together.
If you want to do such a difficult operation without breaking the appearance, to do this, you must know the most difficult technique of removing the whole chicken and duck without breaking the skin and bones!
When deboning this dish, the only kitchen utensil used is a kitchen knife.
Fu Yu's eyes lit up.
He can't do anything else, but juggling a kitchen knife is his unique skill!
Fu Yu didn't sleep at all that night. He stared at the three duck cooking methods and learned them over and over again until they were deeply remembered in his mind.
the next day.
Gu Shi
Zhao Meng woke up early on purpose, wanting to check the pickling conditions of the side dishes and see how the braised pork stewed last night was doing.
As a result, as soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw Fu Yu already busy at work.
Zhao Meng was moved and distressed, and said in a joking manner: "Why, there is a competition today, are you so nervous that you can't sleep?"
Fu Yu is not worried about the competition. He is already very good at cooking. After the previous competition, he has confidence in himself.
I came to the kitchen specifically to help Zhao Meng reduce his workload somewhat.
He is not here today, so Zhao Meng can only hold on. He plans to do everything he can to help Zhao Meng in advance while there is still time.
How could Zhao Meng not know what he was thinking, so he was so moved that he specially made light and delicious millet porridge with zucchini pancakes for Fu Yu for breakfast.
After the two of them finished eating, others started to come over to work.
Zhao Meng asked Fu Yu: "Okay, go back and clean up quickly and then go to the scene. Everything should be done sooner rather than later."
Fu Yu saw that it was already half past seven and didn't waste any time.
I went back and put on the new clothes I bought before, fixed my hair, and went into battle lightly.
Fu Yu walked through the main entrance when he left. When passing through the hall, he happened to meet Jiang Mo who had gotten up for work early.
Jiang Mo looked at Fu Yu with an astonished expression and praised sincerely: "Fu Chu, you are so handsome today! I wish you good results in the competition!"
Fu Yu smiled and nodded: "Thank you!"
It is said that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on its saddle.
The feeling of wearing new clothes is different.
After being praised like this again, I suddenly felt a little light when I walked, and I felt like I was the most handsome man in the world!
The game time is set at ten o'clock in the morning.
However, all personnel need to arrive before nine o'clock to complete the preparations in advance.
Fu Yu took a taxi and rushed to the place in just the right time.
Wearing a seasonal staple suit from a branded men's clothing brand, he stood among a group of middle-aged and elderly cooks. He stood out from the crowd and was so handsome that he shone.
Although it was still early, due to the city's vigorous publicity, there were still many tourists coming to the Sanjiang Tourism Festival to watch the chef competition.
In order to attract customers, the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee even invited cake shops to join the event, and after the chef competition, they held a unique cake sharing event.
It is said that a giant cream cake fifteen meters long and two meters wide will be provided for tourists to taste for free.
However, if you want to receive the cake, you must have a ticket to watch the chef competition.
Tickets will be distributed starting at 8:40 am.
In this way, with the two gimmicks combined, when Fu Yu and his party arrived, the scene was already crowded with people.
A staff member came over to organize the contestants to collectively change into competition uniforms.
As soon as there was a queue here, onlookers immediately paid attention.
When they saw this group of contestants, who ranged in height, short, fat and thin, more and more people gathered over, wanting to have a glimpse of the celebrity chef in advance.
"Hey! That dark and fat guy is the chef of Jufengyuan, right? I've seen his photo!"
"I don't know, but who is the handsome guy behind the fat black guy? He is so young, he must be a staff member, right?"
"He's so handsome, maybe he's the host? Don't they all say that chefs have big heads and thick necks?"
Because he arrived late, Liu Yunpeng, who was standing at the back of the team, overheard the discussion and subconsciously reached out to touch his neck, then immediately let go.
Damn it!
Even with personal attacks!
What’s wrong with having no neck!
A big head means I am smart!
It’s full of wisdom!
Liu Yunpeng cursed a few words, turned his head, and saw the contestants in front of him with big heads and thick necks.
Then look at Fu Yu, who is standing in the middle with a tall and elegant posture.
Liu Yunpeng: "..."
