Such a banquet of local fish was cooked into a rare and delicious dish.
This is already a success!
That's right!
Fu Yu can show a table of fresh river fish with various wonderful cooking techniques, which can make a chef like Ji Hong feel satisfied and praise him repeatedly. This is his great ability!
Who can do it?
Let’s not talk about whether they dare to abandon the famous seafood soup in the store and directly replace it with ordinary fish soup on such an occasion.
Just say, who can cook a bowl of crucian carp soup to the point where the bones are not falling apart and the meat is not broken into pieces?
Who can control the heat of the soup so accurately and stop the fire at the most appropriate time to serve the soup?
The two chefs brought by Ji Honghe asked themselves!
Can they do this?
The skin of crucian carp is thin and the meat is tender, so it tastes delicious. When making soup, it is basically all the bones and minced meat to make the soup.
But Fu Yu did it.
With Sun Qingning and Zhang Jiaxin, neither of them had a long working experience as a chef, but they managed to cook such an amazing fish soup with ease.
This is ability!
Mother's undoubted cooking ability.
Ji Hong looked at Fu Yu with eyes full of appreciation!
Yao Shi looked proud. This was the team leader sent by his own store. How could he not be excellent?
And Dong Juntian tasted a bowl of fish soup, which was also delicious and smacked his tongue. He actually felt the rare nostalgia and friendship after a long absence.
His own restaurant specializes in seafood, and he grew up with his father, so he was used to eating this kind of food, so he didn't really like fish banquets and all kinds of seafood.
Even if I drink soup, it is always some mellow mutton soup or beef soup.
He never ate in the canteen of the store, and rarely ate the food in the store.
Thinking about it carefully, it has really been a while since I have tasted an anchovy banquet and drank a bowl of authentic anchovy soup.
Dong Juntian had a bowl of delicious fish soup in his stomach, but he was still not satisfied. He served another bowl. When he served it before, he didn't pay attention to it. Now that he had finished drinking the clear soup and wanted to fish out the meat, he realized that the fish meat seemed to be stable. It was hanging on the fish bones, but when it was touched with a spoon, the whole piece fell apart. When it was put into the soup bowl, with a slight stir, the fish meat immediately broke into flakes and melted into the soup.
When did the fish soup in this shop become so wonderful!
Dong Juntian subconsciously looked at Yao Shi, wanting to ask quietly if there had been any improvements in the kitchen.
Ji Hong suddenly turned to look at Dong Juntian, pointed at Fu Yu, and sighed: "Boss Dong, Xiao Fu is really an excellent chef!"
"I came to the right place for today's cooking learning exchange! Although Xiao Fu is young, his cooking skills are no worse than mine. He even achieved a level of cooking operations that I may not even be able to do. Precise heat control, decisive seasoning ratio selection, and a solid foundation in cooking skills, these are all things that can only be achieved over time and to be honest, I really admire you!"
"As long as you are willing to concentrate on studying cooking, you will definitely achieve something. As the saying goes, if you don't practice for one day, your hands and feet will be slow, if you don't practice for two days, you will lose half of your skills, if you don't practice for three days, you will be a layman, and if you don't practice for four days, you will be dumb."
"I see, if Xiao Fu can keep up his current momentum, in terms of catering in your store, it won't take long for him to become a top leader famous in our province!"
These words made Dong Juntian a little stunned, but he turned around to look at Fu Yu, who was unfazed by honor and disgrace, and then looked at the fresh fish soup in front of him, and couldn't help but fall silent.
Cooking is not like other things. It is useless to rely on talent alone. You need to learn more and practice more. Only with a solid foundation can you have the opportunity to hone your cooking skills.
But there is no chef with a high level of cooking skills who has a poor foundation in cooking.
Ji Hong could tell just from this cooking observation.
Although Fu Yu is young, he is basically taught to cook by someone since he was a child. It is impossible for his cooking skills to reach this level without more than ten years of training.
Because he had made a judgment in his mind, Ji Hong consciously acquiesced that Fu Yuyi must have studied under a famous teacher, or that an elder in his family was in this field. He had been exposed to it since he was a child and had the foundation and conditions for learning.
Fu Yu also benefited a lot from this exchange activity.
But what he is more interested in is Jiweizhai’s special Hunan cuisine.
Bei'an is too far away from Western Hunan, and Fu Yu has never tasted authentic Xiangxi cuisine before.
Now that I am chatting with Ji Hong, I have developed a strong interest in the authentic Xiangxi cuisine.
Ji Hong has now lost his contempt for Fu Yu when they first met him. Seeing that Fu Yu is interested in his specialty dishes, Ji Hong cooperates and introduces the specific characteristics of the dishes in detail.
"What we in Xiangxi cuisine are very particular about is eating the vegetables and ingredients. What you eat is the flavor of the food itself and the flavor of the sauce you make yourself."
“And we also pay special attention to local ingredients and local cooking methods. Whether it is fruits, vegetables, poultry, or fish, shrimps, and wild products, they are all selected from nature in the mountains, especially the fresh bamboo shoots, wild vegetables, and radishes that are most praised.”
"Of course, the most popular dishes like jar meat and bacon in our store are the most authentic methods."
Ji Hong was also very interested when talking about his best dishes.
While the two were chatting animatedly, a waiter came in to deliver the message that Fu Yu's exclusive regular customer had placed an order.
Since Fu Yu started to take charge independently, he has gradually started to have his own exclusive regular customers.
On the one hand, it was because of the live broadcast of the takeaway barbecue evaluation last year that made Fu Yu a little popular. Many customers came here to order his cooking and wanted to try his craftsmanship.
On the other hand, Fu Yu has indeed made significant progress in cooking operations, and unknowingly began to develop his own unique cooking habits.
The chef's cooking habits will directly lead to subtle differences in the taste and presentation of the dishes.
If you know how to eat, you can tell the difference just by looking at it and tasting it.
Personal preferences vary, and naturally some people prefer the taste of Fu Yu's dishes, so they find out which chef their favorite dish is from. Next time I think about it, I will place an order specifically for this chef. Try your favorite dish again.
Hearing that an old customer had placed an order, Fu Yu quickly stood up, said hello to everyone present, and prepared to leave the table and go to the kitchen to cook.
Seeing this, Ji Hong hurriedly said: "We have almost eaten here, so we can just go over and watch, right?"
The two people traveling together expressed their agreement.
Ji Hongdu brought it up, so Dong Juntian and Yao Shi naturally wouldn't stop it.
Moreover, seeing that Ji Hong and his party were very interested in observing Yu's cooking, Yao Shi felt sincerely honored.
This also made Dong Juntian secretly happy. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and agreed to the suggestions of Liu Yongping and others.
He also knew that Fu Yu was a very good young chef, but he did not expect that the first exchange and learning would go so smoothly.
After all, hotels like these that are also participating in election campaigns are in competition with each other.
It is said to be learning and communication, but in fact it is somewhat of a show of strength between each other.
Not to say that the east wind prevails over the west wind, at least let other competitors who come to the store to observe and learn, understand the strength and advantages of their own store.
But now, Ji Hong and others were clearly conquered by Fu Yu's cooking skills.
Seeing that Ji Hong and others were about to follow him to the kitchen to observe, Dong Juntian was not impatient, but was very happy to see the results.
It is a matter of pride for chefs in your own restaurant to be recognized by other colleagues.
So the group of people left the private room and went directly to the kitchen.
Dong Juntian saw Yao Shi accompanying Ji Hong, talking and walking forward, so he did not step forward to interrupt, but followed behind, winking at Wang Jingrui, and motioned for him to come and observe.
Wang Jingrui naturally had no objection. Although he did not have a professional background and only knew a little about cooking, he had been a restaurant owner for so many years, so he could tell a little bit about the chef's skills.
Especially after having just eaten the fish banquet cooked by Fu Yu himself, I couldn't help but think more highly of the young chef.
Wang Jingrui glanced at Yao Shi, who was walking in front and had quite an aura. He turned to look at his old friend and couldn't help but test it out: "Old Dong, I see that Fu Yu is really good. His cooking skills are so good at such a young age." Gao Chao, no wonder Liu Yongping and the others proposed to cooperate with Fu Yu. As long as Fu Yu is not the chef in your store, I will be tempted to poach him. "
Dong Juntian was distractedly thinking about the fact that Ji Hong and others mentioned inadvertently just now that Fu Yu's image is fully qualified to be the image spokesperson of the store.
Suddenly hearing Wang Jingrui's words, he didn't think deeply about it. He pretended to be angry and said, "How dare you! I'm telling you, if someone pries my chef, that will make me more angry than my wife!"
Wang Jingrui never expected that Dong Juntian would react like this. He couldn't help but joke.
While joking, they entered the kitchen and didn't bring up the previous topic again.
The waiter went to the private room to deliver the message, and then reported the message to the chef.
When Fu Yu and others came over, the kitchen looked busy and orderly.
After Ji Hong saw it, he couldn't help but praise Dong Juntian again.
Others moved to the kitchen counter one after another.
Zhao Meng also winked at Yu, indicating that the order form had been placed on the kitchen counter!
The originally clean kitchen table was already filled with all the necessary preparations.
Fu Yu checked and found that he could basically guess what the customers had ordered without looking at the order form.
However, he still carefully read the contents on the order form, especially the customer's note requirements.
All the food preparations have been prepared in advance, and Sun Qingning and Zhang Jiaxin have even placed the kitchen utensils they need so that Fu Yu can take them easily.
Sun Qingning said: "Fu Chu, I picked out a two-pound grass carp and have already cleaned it up."
Fu Yu nodded, looked at the two of them, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
This is the team!
When you're ready to start cooking, they've already done all the preliminary work for you.
After checking the food preparation situation and seeing that everything needed was ready, Fu Yu didn't waste any more time and started cooking directly.
The customer ordered a small table of noodles, four dishes and one soup, but among the dishes was a fish fillet that was rarely ordered.
Sliced fish fillets are made by cutting grass carp into pieces and then frying them.
The finished dishes are fragrant and tender, but because the taste is relatively bland, they are far less popular than boiled fish, pickled fish, and pickled pepper fish.
】
Moreover, this dish also tests the chef's stir-frying technique. Customers who know how to eat will be able to tell if it is cooked by a master chef.
On weekdays, the ordering clerk does not take the initiative to recommend this dish to customers, and the kitchen does not cook it often.
Fu Yu had observed Zhao Meng's cooking before, but at that time he was still a small-time worker and was busy doing various chores. Even though he was studying and observing, he couldn't look very carefully.
Now that I received the order for this dish, I didn’t know how to start.
However, in front of the kitchen counter, Ji Hong and others were already standing, as if they were waiting to watch.
Today's exchange and study went very smoothly. Now we only need to complete this meeting, and Ji Hong and others can leave.
Seeing that the horoscope was just a click away, Fu Yu was heartbroken and simply spent skill points to improve his personal skill "Sliding Chao".
He had taken some time off from his busy schedule to check his attributes and skills, and found that his level was only elementary.
If you rely on other personal skills, it would be no problem to deal with ordinary customers ordering food.
But now there are several chefs such as Ji Hong watching from the sidelines, and he doesn't dare to be careless at all.
Especially since Ji Hong just mentioned at the dinner table that Jiweizhai has a special dish called fried oriole meat.
This Hunan dish is very unique. Although it is called oriole meat, it is actually called this because the fried meat pieces resemble oriole meat.
Stir-fried meat is Ji Hong's specialty. The meat pieces prepared by him are tender and fragrant in the mouth, making them particularly popular among customers.
Using low-level fried fish skills to make fried fish fillets in front of Ji Hong, is this a bit of a trick in front of Guan Gong, right?
Thinking of this, Fu Yu didn't hesitate and directly spent skill points to upgrade to advanced level.
As a result, he had just finished improving his skating skills, and the next second an electronic sound sounded in his ears:
【Ding! The personal skill: Sliding has been upgraded from elementary to advanced, and 7 skill points will be deducted. 】
no!
Wait a minute!
How come 7 skill points were suddenly deducted when I upgraded from junior to senior?
Even if there are two points deducted at level one, it should still be six points, right?
Taking advantage of the effort of slicing fish, Fu Yu couldn't help but multitask and checked the previous message prompts.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
The system shows that although his personal skill was previously shown to be at the elementary level, because the accumulated points for this skill are zero, it costs one point to activate it, and two points for each level up. He goes back and forth just for this personal skill. To improve, he lost seven skill points in one fell swoop.
Being robbed of money on the street is nothing more than how you feel now, right?
After spending 7 points at once, Fu Yu felt that his pocket was empty.
After this calculation, I only have 9 skill points left.
