Returning to the dormitory in the evening, Fu Yu opened the door with the key and went directly into the teaching practice class to learn medicinal cooking for treating spleen and kidney weakness.
When he finally got full marks and was released from the system space, Fu Yu was so exhausted physically and mentally that he even skipped washing and fell directly on the bed and slept until dawn.
Going to the music restaurant in the morning, Fu Yu didn't go to the kitchen at all. He bought a family photo pancake and fruit on the side street and took a taxi to go there.
Because today was scheduled for a rest day, Yao Shi deliberately moved forward the date of this week's medicated diet course, and even personally called several customers who ordered customized medicated diet to explain.
With Yao Shi worrying about these things, Fu Yu arrived at the music restaurant and didn't have to worry about anything. He changed his clothes and went directly to the kitchen to start cooking the medicinal meals according to the reservation time for this week.
Fu Yu's medicated meal banquets for regular customers are all custom-made by Fu Yu. He knows exactly what dishes should be made and how to make them.
The ingredients and medicinal materials are properly prepared, and Fu Yu only needs to put it on the stove and cook directly.
In just one morning, he successfully received three customers who ordered customized medicinal meals.
Just in time for lunch, Yao Shi called and called Fu Yu to the VIP room.
Xu Zebang was already sitting in the VIP room with his father.
Fu Yu got Yao Shi's advice. After entering the door, he didn't mention the customized medicinal diet. He just stood quietly and let Yao Shi fool him.
Yao Shi introduced to Mr. Xu: "This Chef Fu is the newly hired chef of our store. His skills are very outstanding. He happened to innovate several sets of banquets this time. Uncle Xu, I want you to help taste them." Take a look and see if there is anything that needs improvement.”
When Mr. Xu heard this, he hurriedly declined: "I'm not good at cooking. I can only cook a soup. I'm really not very good at other things."
Yao Shi smiled like a successful fox and said cheerfully: "Don't worry, what I want you to help taste is the soup of these sets of banquet noodles. As for the other dishes, let's just try them out today."
Hearing that he was asked to help taste the soup, Mr. Xu suddenly became interested: "That's great. I don't really know much about other aspects, but I am quite knowledgeable about making soup."
Seeing that Mr. Xu agreed, Yao Shi took him and asked him about his recent physical condition in detail.
He and Xu Zebang grew up together and have a good understanding of each other.
The two of them sang together, and from beginning to end, they did not show any intention of customizing the medicinal diet, but explained Mr. Xu's symptoms and current physical condition in detail.
Fu Yu listened very carefully. After following Yao Shi out of the VIP room, he took a closer look at the test results of Mr. Xu's recent visit to the hospital.
At this time, Xu Zebang also found an excuse to escape.
Seeing this, Yao Shi simply took them to the office not far away.
Entering the office, Xu Zebang wiped away his previous carelessness and asked with great concern: "Fu Chu, can my dad customize a curative medicinal diet for his situation?"
If it was before last night, Fu Yu might have been a little unsure, but after experiencing the learning spurs of the teaching practice class, he nodded with great confidence: "Mr. Xu's situation is still more suitable for customized medicated diet treatment. "
"Because Mr. Xu's symptoms are typical of spleen and kidney yang deficiency, and he is old, during the treatment, I recommend mainly medicinal dietary prescriptions that warm the spleen and kidneys. Mr. Xu is very averse to taking medication, so When it comes to choosing medicinal foods, I will also try to focus on dietary supplements. Even if medicinal materials are used, I will try my best to cover up the smell of the medicine during cooking so that Mr. Xu will not notice it."
"When we were chatting just now, I also heard that Mr. Xu often cooks some soups for himself at home to nourish himself. But in fact, many soups cannot relieve the symptoms of weak spleen and kidneys. , On the contrary, it will also bring a certain amount of pressure to the body, which will not be easily absorbed and will also lead to aggravation of the disease."
Fu Yu's words completely touched Xu Zebang's heart!
You know, Mr. Xu was originally a bit stubborn, but now that he is getting older, it is even more remarkable.
I usually make soup to replenish the health of the whole family. In fact, what I make is just some homemade soup, so it doesn't hurt to eat it.
But now that he is sick, what big role can those home-cooked soups play?
Xu Zebang really didn't expect that this young herbal chef could have such insight and say such reasonable words.
To be honest, when Xu Zebang suddenly saw Fu Yu, he felt quite unhappy.
If it weren't for his relationship with Yao Shi and worrying about his father's presence, he would have to fall out.
His father is so weak now. If you can help, then try to help. If you can't, just say so.
In the end, the matter was taken care of, but such a young chef was sent to deal with the matter. Is this ridiculous?
After all, he was his own father, and Xu Zebang was really filial. He just wanted to cure his father's illness as soon as possible so that the old man would suffer less.
Unexpectedly, Yao Shi recommended such a young chef who looked to be in his early twenties!
This is not to blame Xu Zebang, his own father is a soup master, and he has a little knowledge of cooking.
Chefs are not like other industries. Their cooking skills are accumulated slowly. Otherwise, the chefs in most restaurants are all elderly, while the workers are all young people!
It is precisely because of understanding these situations that Xu Zebang is somewhat complaining.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the age of a chef is often directly proportional to the level of his cooking skills. After all, no matter how talented he is, if he has been working for a long time, he will still have a few special skills in cooking.
Now that Yao Shi has sent such a young herbal chef, anyone else would feel a little uncomfortable.
However, now that Fu Yu said this, Xu Zebang's impression of him could not help but improve a bit.
Regardless of his age, at least this young herbal chef sounds quite knowledgeable!
Because of the change in mentality, when Fu Yu asked Mr. Xu about his usual eating habits, Xu Zebang was particularly cooperative and explained in detail.
Fu Yu listened carefully, nodded, and said to Xu Zebang: "I already understand the situation. As for the specific customization of the medicinal diet course, I will discuss it with Chef Yao, and our kitchen will try to arrange the dishes as soon as possible."
Now that I have come, I must try this medicinal meal. Xu Zebang nodded quickly.
After Fu Yu finished explaining to Xu Zebang, he turned to Yao Shi and said, "Chef Yao, then I'll go to the back kitchen to order the herbal banquet."
Yao Shi nodded: "Okay, go ahead and do your work. If you have anything to do, just tell Zhang Zhen directly."
After Fu Yu left, Xu Zebang quickly pulled Yao Shi and asked, "Brother Yao, isn't your specially hired herbal chef too young?"
Yao Shi smiled in his heart and said: "You don't know the situation. Even though Fu Yu is young, he is a consultant specially appointed by the National Medicinal Diet Research Association, specializing in the customization of medicinal diet mats. Zebang, can I still cheat Uncle Xu? This I want to recuperate Uncle Xu’s body, and I will definitely choose the best candidate to recommend, so don’t worry!”
"Let me tell you, I spent a lot of money to invite people to come to the store to make medicinal dishes. With his worth, the little money I gave him could just invite him to come over once a week to help. If we customize two banquets, they won’t be on duty at our store at all.”
When Xu Zebang heard this, he was immediately stunned: "Yao Shi...is this chef Fu so powerful?"
Yao Shi kept talking without blinking and without panic: "That's right! The few customers who currently customize herbal meals in our store are all people with high status and background. Ordinary people can't get ranked even if they spend money."
"Don't worry. Let him help treat Uncle Xu's illness. It will definitely be effective."
When Xu Zebang heard what Yao Shi said, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Yao, thank you for this. You will have to help me persuade my dad to eat more. I've been really worried these days."
Yao Shi nodded without saying anything more and followed Xu Zebang back to the VIP room to entertain Mr. Xu.
He really didn't know anything about medicinal foods, and the chef couldn't help him in the past, so he might as well stay and help persuade Mr. Xu.
After Fu Yu left, he did not rush back to the kitchen. Instead, he found a quiet place and carefully selected dishes suitable for Mr. Xu based on the medicinal diet he had just learned last night.
Because we need to prepare a customized medicated meal banquet, there are several treatment courses in total. What kind of dishes need to be arranged step by step for each treatment course. These need to be considered before screening and determination.
Mr. Xu's condition is spleen and kidney yang deficiency, so in terms of medicinal diet, he should use medicinal materials and foods that are warm in nature and have the effect of replenishing kidney yang and warming spleen yang.
At the same time, you should also try to avoid eating foods that are cold in nature, easy to damage Yang Qi, or foods that are greasy and thick and difficult to digest.
Moreover, since Yao Shi deceived Mr. Xu to come over today to help taste the dishes, and he was accompanied by Xu Zebang, the dishes must at least be handled according to the small banquet order list.
Fu Yu thought about it for a while and listed dozens of medicinal dishes.
I checked and checked again and again, and marked the dishes cooked for several courses of treatment.
Finally, we decided on the medicinal meal banquet that needed to be cooked today. There were six dishes in total, including soup, porridge, and special dishes.
Considering that Mr. Xu was very averse to taking medicine, Fu Yu tried his best to focus on food ingredients when customizing the medicinal diet. Chinese medicinal materials were not used if they could be used. The main focus of this time's customization of the banquet was subtle dietary therapy.
After confirming the specific dishes for the medicinal meal banquet, Fu Yu went back to the kitchen and listed the menu items for Zhang Zhen to arrange.
The ingredients at the music restaurant are very rich and comprehensive, but some medicinal materials have not been used before, so you need to contact the pharmacy for temporary delivery.
However, these are not difficult things to handle.
Fu Yu waited for the waiter to prepare the ingredients, then started cooking immediately without wasting any more time.
Chili pepper chicken is a special home-cooked dish, but few people know that this dish is actually a medicinal dish. It is a dish that is very suitable for the elderly. Eating it in moderation can strengthen the spleen and appetizer, which is suitable for people with spleen and kidney yang deficiency. disease.
In fact, anyone with some cooking skills can make this dish, but how to make it delicious and tender is a great test of the chef's cooking skills.
Fu Yu cut the chicken breast into square dices. Because it is a medicinal dish, Fu Yu has always been very strict with himself in the presentation of the dish.
】
When it comes to dicing chicken, it must be square, and all the leftovers that cannot be cut into square shapes are removed.
Medicinal diet is so expensive, and if he doesn't strive for excellence, he always feels that the money he receives is not practical.
The peppers are also cut into cubes, but this time they are cut into triangles and are the same size as diced chicken. You can be sure that if you take out a piece of diced chicken, it will be the same size as the peppers.
Fu Yudu admired himself very much for this unique skill of measuring with one hand.
Being able to strictly follow the instructions of the green line and perform the operation perfectly, my current level of cooking skills has been improved, right?
Fu Yu held the kitchen knife and quickly and neatly cut the chicken and pepper into cubes, sprinkled some salt, poured some egg white and water starch, and stirred evenly.
While the chicken was getting delicious, Fu Yu put the frying spoon on medium heat, added peanut oil and waited until the heat was almost the same. Add in the diced chicken and stir-fry until loose, then take out and drain the oil.
This step of operation is very critical. Whether the fried chicken is tender or not depends entirely on the control of heat and time.
Because he usually works in Qianlima, Fu Yu really doesn't have the chance to cook this dish.
This is his first time making it, but as long as he follows the method of the classic old recipe, he can reproduce it perfectly.
Heat up the remaining oil in the pot, stir-fry onion, ginger and diced chili peppers, then add other seasonings, top with warm starch, and pour in freshly squeezed Sichuan peppercorn oil. This dish is ready to serve. .
The step of seasoning with peppercorn oil was a technique Fu Yu had never thought of before.
Now follow the cooking tutorial on the recipe and make it step by step. Not to mention, this dish really smells great.
However, although the food was finished cooking, Fu Yu was not in a hurry to serve it.
Without him, this dish is too ordinary and not worthy of the high price of medicinal food.
It was impossible to improve the ingredients, so Fu Yu could only rack his brains to think of ways to arrange the dishes.
In fact, the color of diced chicken and diced peppers is particularly beautiful when paired together. Although it is not aesthetically pleasing when served in a messy manner, it makes people feel very appetizing just by looking at it.
However, if you want to take this dish to a higher level, you definitely can’t serve it casually.
Fu Yu asked the worker to bring a medium-sized lotus leaf lamp.
The old green color of the lotus leaf cup just complements the crisp and tender color of the diced pepper. Fu Yu held the universal tachyon and fully mobilized the flexibility of his fingers.
Take out the diced peppers and diced chicken from the pot one by one, leaving a portion to be placed on the bottom of the lotus leaf cup. On top, the diced peppers and chicken are cleverly used to spell out the word "福".
It was actually quite a laborious operation, but Fu Yu did it very quickly.
Seeing that the plating was finished, Fu Yu couldn't help but sigh while admiring it. The advanced painting skills and color discrimination abilities rewarded by the system are really useful!
Look at this dish, it’s so exquisite, so beautiful, so artistic!
