Several people stared at Fu Yu's operations.
But apart from the beginning, I could still see Fu Yu's specific movements clearly. Later, I just felt like phantoms were appearing in front of my eyes.
Fu Yu's hand speed was so fast that it didn't look like he was picking up loaches, but fries. Moreover, it was the kind of machine with customized timing, with coherent movements and amazing speed.
Although Liu Shaoxian calls himself an expert in medicinal diet, in terms of cooking, he is somewhat inferior to chefs who specialize in cooking.
At this time, Liu Shaoxian couldn't help but feel ashamed when he saw Fu Yu's operation.
How much energy does it take to practice this hand speed?
People who are diligent and willing to endure hardship are always loved by others.
Liu Shaoxian was obviously more impressed with Yu.
However, before he could finish sighing, the next scene completely stunned him.
Fu Yu kept picking up loach fish, picking up exactly twenty of them back and forth.
Then, he held the chopsticks and made fine adjustments between his fingers, stretched the chopsticks out, and straightened the loach fish one by one. Using his eyes as a ruler, he roughly measured the length of the loach fish.
Fu Yu began to pick and choose, putting the unsatisfied loach fish back into the basin. In the end, all the loach fish left were the same length and beautiful body.
The so-called beauty refers to fatness, thinness, and body markings.
Fu Yu is very attentive and considerate in every detail of selecting ingredients.
At this moment, as a seasoned medicated diet expert, Liu Shaoxian suddenly understood why just a medicated diet table could be sold for such a high price.
Because of attitude!
Because of the details!
Because of the understanding and attention to the medicinal diet itself!
Fu Yu seems to treat medicated cooking as a subtle experiment, constantly adjusting and trying to correct the flaws in the operation, treating medicated dishes as a work of art that needs to be carefully crafted, not just a piece of art. Medicinal dishes on the table!
What Fu Yu wants to complete is not just a simple dish!
But the perfect work of art in his heart.
However, Liu Shaoxian was not a full-time chef after all, so he couldn't see clearly in some places.
On the contrary, Liu Yunong suddenly discovered that Fu Yu actually has a very unique talent in the use of ingredients, control of operating intensity, and aesthetics.
He pays close attention to details and strives for perfection in the dishes, and all his actions and operations are very appropriate.
Even in the selection of medicinal food combinations, great attention is paid to the cooking taste and creativity of the ingredients.
Whenever you take out any dish, it will give people an unexpected feeling of surprise.
No wonder the medicinal diet made by this guy is so popular.
Make customers willing to pay for it.
Because most people simply cannot do this.
What others cannot do will naturally be more precious.
In fact, Yao Shi had carefully watched Fu Yu cook herbal meals before, but at that time he just felt that Fu Yu was really knowledgeable about herbal meals, and he also had his own ideas about customizing herbal meals.
However, after observing Fu Yu's cooking at close range today, Yao Shi suddenly felt that Fu Yu's cooking of medicinal foods seemed to have opened up another direction and sales route.
That is the sense of harmony between medicinal effect and taste!
A brand new cooking idea that is completely different from the ordinary herbal cuisine style.
perhaps
Fu Yu selected the loach, put the storage box directly into the refrigerator, and froze the loach.
Liu Shaoxian and Xiao Jiping were stunned by his move.
Is this how this dish is originally made?
Instead of putting the loach alive in the pot and cooking it with the tofu, it should be frozen first?
Liu Yunong is still quite unfamiliar with this dish. On the one hand, although there are dishes about loach in Liu's cuisine, because this ingredient is too niche, customers who like it like it very much, and customers who don't like it hate it very much, so they have long been Omitted from the recipe.
She had never learned about the dish of loach and tofu before.
Today is the first time I’ve seen it, so I don’t know much about the specific cooking methods.
Fu Yu's method of cooking this dish was also figured out by himself after repeated failures.
He discovered that he could put live loaches directly in the refrigerator and then freeze them. Although the loaches were dead at this time, they still maintained their active form. Finally, he could just insert the loaches into the tofu.
And this dish has a special feature, that is, the cooking method is actually very simple, but the way it is cooked does leave a lot of room for imagination.
He himself failed countless times when cooking, so after he succeeded, he couldn't help but feel very emotional.
I think this dish can be called a famous dish, it is really unique.
In fact, many very good delicacies are very simple in terms of ingredients and cooking methods, but many chefs use special methods to make them more consistent with the names of the dishes, so many people remember them deeply.
While the loach was frozen and the two medicinal dishes were still being stewed, Fu Yu started making spleen-protecting cakes.
The jujube paste is a ready-made ingredient brought from Bai An.
Fu Yu weighed the atractylodes powder, dried ginger powder and chicken gizzard powder.
The chicken nuggets in the drugstore are very well processed. They are made from fresh chicken nuggets, washed, dried and ground into powder. The texture is very pure.
Put the jujube puree into a large bowl for kneading noodles, pour the weighed atractylodes powder, dried ginger powder, and chicken gizzard powder into the jujube puree and mix evenly.
Add flour and start kneading.
In fact, Fu Yu was a bit opportunistic in cooking this time.
Because the customer had already arrived at the store and was waiting to try the food, the time was a bit tight and he did not have time to cook it carefully.
The authentic Yipi cake should be made by wrapping Atractylodes macrocephala and dried ginger with gauze and boiling them with red dates for 1 hour. Remove the medicine bag, peel and core the dates, continue to cook over low heat, and press the jujube meat into jujube puree. After cooling, mix it with chicken gizzard powder and flour, add an appropriate amount of water, and bake it into a cake using the usual method.
But now, in order to save time, Fu Yu chooses to directly use ready-made Atractylodes powder, dried ginger powder, and Gallus gallus gallus powder.
Although there is no difference in efficacy, the taste may be somewhat inferior.
Because he clearly knows this, Fu Yu pays great attention to the final shape when cooking.
He divided the mixed dough into small pieces of equal size.
Use a mold to press the pattern into a pattern. The chosen pattern is very delicate and beautiful, and the finished product looks unique and lifelike.
Fu Yu's control over the heat and time is really amazing.
Even if Yao Shi has seen Fu Yu's cooking more than once, he will still secretly admire it when he sees it again.
When Liu Shaoxian saw Fu Yu complete the entire operation process, he couldn't help but smile and said: "This Yipi Cake is really beautiful."
"It turns out it's called Yipi Cake!" Xiao Jiping is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Although he has researched on medicinal diet, he doesn't know much about cooking.
"The name fits the effect of the medicine very well." Xiao Jiping praised it somewhat amateurishly.
Jujube strengthens the spleen and replenishes qi, Atractylodes strengthens the spleen and relieves diarrhea, dried ginger warms the body and strengthens the stomach, and chicken gizzards eliminates food and stimulates the appetite.
Putting these things together is a recipe to benefit the spleen.
Liu Shaoxian nodded and whispered: "Zhang Xichun's book "Medical Zhongzhongshenxilu" records a good recipe for nourishing the spleen, warming the body, strengthening the stomach and digesting food. This recipe is Yipi Cake. It is mainly used for dampness and coldness in the spleen and stomach. , the diet is reduced, diarrhoea, and the grains are not digested."
"However, the Yipi cakes on the market are not so exquisite."
At least the ones Liu Shaoxian had seen were shortcakes or ordinary baked small round cakes.
And what Fu Yu made is very beautiful!
It's really exquisite, or perhaps should be said to be stunning.
When Fu Yu took out the frozen loach fish and started cooking it, Liu Shaoxian couldn't help but praise: "Absolutely amazing!"
Fu Yu directly inserted the frozen loach into the tofu and then started cooking.
Even if the cooking has not yet started, just this shape can already predict the presentation effect of the dishes after they are completed.
Fu Yu poured cold pork rib soup into the casserole, then put the soft tofu in the shape, covered it and simmered for a while, then added salt, pepper, ginger, and MSG, and continued steaming.
The tofu cooked in this dish is white, delicious and spicy, and the soup is greasy and fragrant.
Even though I knew that the loach fish was actually tofu that was frozen and inserted manually, I still felt very creative when I saw the finished product because there was no trace of manual operation at all.
The body of the loach fish is submerged in the tofu, leaving only a section of its tail outside. At first glance, it looks really novel.
Liu Shaoxian looked at the finished product, sighed, and shook his head with emotion.
This kind of thing is really a talent!
You can't learn it.
Medicinal cooking is really different from other ordinary cooking.
Because it has the bitter taste of medicinal materials, you need to find ways to complement it in terms of the ratio of seasonings, the combination of ingredients, and the presentation of the dish.
This places very strict requirements on the chefs themselves in terms of aesthetics, understanding of the taste of ingredients, cooking techniques, and control of details.
However, Fu Yu seems to have all these aspects, and he is very powerful!
Thinking of this, Liu Shaoxian couldn't help but sigh again.
He watched Fu Yu calmly cook the stewed Codonopsis pilosula and lily stewed pork lungs and take it down from the stove without even noticing it. In fact, his eyes began to reveal a bit of anticipation unconsciously.
This is the talent people often talk about!
And this is what Fu Yu possesses. This person is born to eat this kind of rice!
Liu Shaoxian smiled slightly, this trip was really not in vain, I gained a lot of experience!
And it also touched him.
Fu Yu's medicinal cooking really broadened Liu Shaoxian's horizons and gave him a lot of inspiration.
At this moment, Liu Shaoxian couldn't help but think of many things.
For example, how should we improve the customization of medicated diet, better improve the cooking methods of medicated diet, and even further promote the development and progress of the domestic medicated diet industry!
You know, although the medicated diet industry is also very popular, it is a bit too niche after all.
In fact, the domestic foundation is too weak. If we want to develop, we can only rely on successive generations to promote, innovate and promote.
Fu Yu's medicated cooking clearly opened up a new path for Liu Shaoxian, or it opened a new door.
Perhaps, after this inspection, we can discuss with several medicated diet masters from the research association. It is necessary to put new additions to the research association on the agenda, and we can also discuss improvements to the details of the cooking operation of medicated diet.
Liu Shaoxian was thinking about it while secretly gearing up.
This is obviously a feasible way!
The young chef in front of him is clearly a very suitable person to receive new staff.
If he can be recruited into the research association, someone will be able to give better advice and suggestions when discussing issues related to medicated diet in the future.
And if you just recruit new people, it seems a bit condescending. Maybe you can apply for a consultant position for Fu Yu?
Putting aside the salary issue, the name alone sounds more decent.
Liu Shao first thought about it. After the medicinal meal was cooked, he must find an opportunity to have a good chat with Fu Yu about this matter.
This trip is really worth it!
Yao Shi has long been accustomed to Fu Yu's cooking skills.
Seeing the dumbfounded expressions of the three people next to them, I couldn't help but feel relieved.
Just feel shocked!
Fu Yu cooked medicinal food one after another.
Although it is a trial meal, each customer's medicinal diet is customized according to the specifications of three dishes, one soup and one staple food.
Fu Yu finished cooking all the medicinal meals for the two customers he met in the morning.
After a scruffy lunch, I started to receive the three customers who had made appointments to meet in the afternoon.
While Fu Yu was communicating with customers and customizing herbal meals, Liu Shaoxian and others had the opportunity to take the time to have a good meal in the private room in the front hall.
After finishing the meal, none of them had any intention of leaving, so they went to the kitchen together.
For a whole afternoon, several people stood in front of the kitchen table tirelessly, watching Fu Yu cook one medicinal meal after another like a customized machine.
From beginning to end, this person never wasted a single second.
Simply make use of all the time between cooking dishes.
Moreover, the order in which the medicinal dishes were served was arranged just right.
The dishes that are served first are often those that take some time to eat and can delay some cooking time for the kitchen.
As for the dishes, they all have a combination of vegetable soup and staple food, and each dish has its own eye-catching characteristics.
Either the taste is amazing, or the ingredients are special, no matter how bad the presentation is, the presentation can make people marvel and move their index fingers.
Fu Yu was busy cooking without raising his head or eyes, while Liu Shaoxian and others stood by silently watching.
Watching Fu Yu complete the trial cooking of medicinal meals for five customers by himself!
The more they looked at the back, the more emotional everyone became.
Fu Yu, are you a robot?
It turns out that the medicinal diet can be reasonably arranged to this extent!
This is too awesome!
Liu Shaoxian's eyes were even more intense. He looked at Fu Yu, then turned to Liu Yunong: "Chef Liu, do you think Xiao Fu can join our National Medicinal Diet Research Association?"
Liu Yunong suddenly looked surprised and looked at Liu Shaoxian in disbelief.
Actually, he wanted to invite Fu Yu to join the National Medicinal Diet Research Association!
This is simply a piece of cake falling from the sky!
"of course!"
Liu Yunong simply approved of Fu Yu joining the club with both hands.
Liu Shaoxian also showed a satisfied smile.
That’s fine!
The National Medicinal Diet Research Association needs new generation forces like Fu Yu.
