Obviously when he was in the front hall, Fu Yu seemed very gentle and non-distanced, but when he came to the back kitchen, he simply put on an apron and stood there, but his whole demeanor seemed to have changed.
A few words of casual advice, each sentence is incisive and to the point.
Even Xiao Hechou felt that he benefited a lot after listening to it.
He Yuzhou behind him looked at Fu Yu, truly convinced this time.
It turns out...this is really a boss!
And he is also a very young man!
Zhang Chenyang was obviously stunned after listening to Fu Yu's instructions. This... why does the cooking operation sound a bit simple?
Think carefully about Fu Yu's previous cooking.
It seems to be really smooth and nothing particularly difficult.
The movement of turning the spoon is very standard and very fast, but if you want to do this, you can still do it.
Although the posture may not be as chic, the effect achieved is the same.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that as long as you follow the cooking method Fu Yu said, you can make this dish yourself!
Thinking of this, Zhang Chenyang suddenly felt a little excited.
Maybe you can find a chance to practice it. Not to say it's perfect, but at least it will be much better than the one you speculated on before.
Thinking of the dish he cooked before, Zhang Chenyang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Without comparison, there would be no harm.
Compared with the dish in front of me, the one I made before was nothing like fried mutton with green onions. It was simply roasted mutton with green onions.
Even if you haven’t tasted it yet, the two dishes are already outstanding!
At this time, Fu Yu casually took off his apron and looked at Zhang Chenyang and He Yuzhou, as if he could see the meaning in their eyes.
So he smiled and said, "Do you think this dish is easy to cook?"
Zhang Chenyang remained calm, but He Yuzhou nodded subconsciously!
Frankly speaking, after just such an observation, he really felt that he could give it a try.
Fu Yu shook his head and said seriously: "Actually, this dish is not simple to make at all. The difficulty of cooking cannot be mastered by observing, but is based on accurate judgment of the amount of dishes and seasonings, as well as basic cooking operations. master."
"Based on the actual conditions of the ingredients, choosing a more suitable cutting thickness and size is one of the most difficult operations. In many cases, the leg meat needs to be removed because it is covered by fascia, but when cutting it , it is often difficult to do this, which will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of cooking.”
"Also, do you think that stir-frying means fast cooking, vigorous shaking of the spoon, and high heat?"
Hearing this, He Yuzhou nodded unconsciously again...
That seems to be the case...
However, Zhang Chenyang frowned and thought about it. After Fu Yu started taking the spoon, he first carefully checked the arrangement of the seasonings, and then immediately processed the mutton.
During this process, he had quickly determined the amount of mutton and green onions.
Because when the food prepared by the waiter was delivered, Fu Yu directly reserved the amount of ingredients that was just right for cooking.
When it was finally served, none of the ingredients he chose were left.
This level of strength... would be impossible without years of cooking experience!
This is so difficult!
The amount of dishes and condiments is not used casually, and the use of main ingredients and side dishes needs to be judged based on experience.
This seemingly simple operation is actually based on the experience accumulated slowly based on countless times of cooking and cooking.
It seems simple, but it is actually very technical.
Zhang Chenyang sighed and said: "We don't use starch. We only rely on cutting and controlling the heat to achieve the best taste of mutton. This situation is rare in the kitchen. Generally speaking, we often use starch in daily cooking. Or egg liquid to make the meat tender."
"Chef Fu just started cooking, stir-frying, and finally plating. It seems to be a very simple operation, but in fact, every step is planned. This is the real power of cooking. Especially when it comes to heat. If the time is too long, the mutton will become old, and if the time is too short, the mutton will not be tender."
"When cooking this dish, it looks quite simple, but when it comes to stir-frying, to what extent does it need to be stir-fried and how long is the most appropriate time? Judgments like this can be made without long-term cooking practice. There is no way to accurately grasp it by observing it live.”
After Zhang Chenyang finished speaking, he was filled with emotions. When He Yuzhou heard this, he couldn't help but fell silent.
Yes, how to accurately judge the amount of ingredients, the size of the heat, the length of time, and the strength of the spoon are all skills that cannot be effectively mastered by just observing with your eyes.
This is experience!
Cooking is different from other things. Any skill takes a long time to hone.
And the experience of cooking is extremely precious in the cooking process.
At this time, Fu Yu said: "The final effect of this mutton stir-fried with green onions must be smooth and tender, fresh and fragrant, and have endless aftertaste after eating. In addition to the mutton slices, the green onions are also the best." After frying, the green onions have a rich aroma and a hint of sweetness.”
“Only one ingredient, scallions, can perfectly mask the fishy smell of mutton.”
At this moment, Xiao Hechou completely understood why Fu Yu only tasted the dish that Zhang Chenyang cooked just now and bluntly stated that it was not mutton stir-fried with green onions at all, but mutton roasted with green onions.
Although Xiao Hechou had never seriously learned how to cook and relied on setting up stalls to stir-fry, gaining little experience on his own, but seeing Fu Yu finish cooking the entire dish, he finally understood it.
The chefs in this big hotel are really different from the chefs in small restaurants like them.
Whether it is the basic skills of cooking or the methods and experience of stir-frying, the gap is still quite large.
No wonder Chollima is a century-old store with a far-reaching reputation.
Because the chef in the kitchen is really good at cooking, and his level is on display here.
Even a young chef like Fu Yu is so good, and those senior chefs in the back kitchen may all be at the level of famous chefs.
He Yuzhou was completely impressed by Fu Yu at this time. He spoke in a very friendly manner.
Zhang Chenyang looked at Fu Yu on the side with the same complicated mood. He is really a powerful young junior!
Who would have thought that this skill comes from a young chef in his early twenties!
In addition to the stir-fried mutton on the plate, Fu Yu specially reserved some in the pot.
He served the remaining dishes separately and invited Zhang Chenyang and He Yuzhou to try the dishes.
No matter how fancy the presentation of a dish is, no matter how cool the cooking techniques are, it is all in vain if the finished dish does not taste good.
For chefs, tasting is a very important thing in cooking.
When Zhang Chenyang and He Yuzhou heard that they could try it, they were not polite. They quickly found Kuai Zi and tasted it carefully with mutton and green onions respectively.
As he said before, the stir-fried mutton made by Fu Yu has the soup completely coated on the ingredients, so the mutton tastes soft, tender and fragrant without any smell, while the green onions are fragrant and refreshing. Wrapped in a thick soup, it becomes more fragrant the more you chew it, and blends perfectly with the taste of the mutton.
When He Yuzhou tasted Zhang Chenyang's fried mutton with green onions before, he also thought it was delicious and fragrant.
But the only flaw at the time was that the green onion segments were slightly bitter after eating.
However, because the mutton is tender and delicious, this shortcoming can be completely ignored.
But now, when he tasted Fu Yu's fried mutton with green onions, he realized that when he tasted authentic fried mutton with green onions, the tender and smooth mutton would absorb the aroma of green onions, and his lips and teeth would be filled with one bite. It has a lingering fragrance, and the scallions are refreshing and relieve greasiness. Even the scallion tube is filled with soup.
The soup does not exist on the plate, but is covered with ingredients. The dishes produced in this way are simply delicious!
The most amazing thing is that during the entire cooking process, Fu Yu neither cooked nor stir-fried the mutton, but the lamb was very tender, delicious, juicy!
Zhang Chenyang fell completely silent after tasting Fu Yu's fried mutton with green onions.
Fresh and fragrant, the oil is juicy, and you will have endless aftertaste after eating...
It turns out that this dish is ready, and it tastes like this!
Xiao Hechou stood aside and watched, curiously asking: "How is it eating?"
He Yuzhou gave a thumbs up and said in a somewhat exaggerated tone: "It's delicious! It's so fragrant! No wonder this mutton fried with green onions is as famous as boiled cabbage. This dish is amazing!"
At this time, Zhang Chenyang suddenly looked at Fu Yu and asked sincerely: "Fu Chu, can I exchange contact information with you? I feel that I have benefited a lot from today's cooking observation and I have a lot of cooking ideas. I hope to share with you Let’s have some communication.”
Fu Yu and Zhang Chenyang readily added their contact information to each other.
Being able to exchange cooking experiences with colleagues is something every chef dreams of.
Working behind closed doors can never be as good as communication among peers.
When Xiao Hechou saw the reactions of his two chefs, he knew that his previous idea could basically be implemented.
He suddenly said with great joy: "Fu Yu, thank you so much. When this dish is successfully promoted in my store, I will share the dividends with you!"
Fu Yu laughed when he heard this and waved his hands repeatedly: "That's not necessary. As long as I come over to eat again in the future, you can give me a free meal."
Xiao Hechou smiled from ear to ear: "It's necessary! We are all our own people, how can I accept your money!"
Fu Yu smiled, and after greeting Zhang Chenyang and He Yuzhou respectively, he walked to the front hall holding a plate and laughing with Xiao Hechou.
Seeing them coming back, Wu Bowen hurriedly asked: "How is it?"
Fu Yu put the dish on the table and placed it specifically in front of Wu Bowen: "Uncle Wu, don't worry, I'm good at cooking if nothing else. Come on, try the mutton stir-fried with green onion while it's hot. How about it?"
When Wu Bowen heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Why worry, what I said is right, Fu Yu is very good at cooking!"
Xiao Hechou nodded repeatedly. As soon as he sat down, he quickly picked up Kuaizi and put a piece of mutton into his mouth.
When this mouthful of mutton entered his mouth, Xiao Hechou's eyes suddenly lit up!
tasty!
It smells so good!
This is called authentic lamb stir-fried with green onions!
He picked up another piece of green onion and tasted it carefully.
If this dish is done well, even the side dishes will be delicious!
Xiao Hechou ate two more pieces of mutton in a row, and then he freed his mouth to praise: "Fu Yu, you are so awesome. It turns out that the mutton fried with green onions is so fragrant!"
Wu Bowen also tasted the food and smacked his lips as it was equally delicious.
What he sent over was a freshly killed big-tailed sheep. The mutton had a very strong taste and excellent meat quality. Now that it was prepared by Fu Yu's skillful hands, all the aroma of the mutton was brought out.
The mutton is tender and fragrant. Eating two pieces of mutton with a piece of green onion is both refreshing and relieving.
There is no comparison with the dish made by Fu Yu. In fact, the plate of mutton cooked by the chef in the store was already delicious.
But comparing the two, the previous plate of mutton seemed a bit tough, the green onions were a little tasteless, and there was an obvious bitterness when chewed.
The most important point is that the soup is spread on the plate, and the soup is sandwiched in the ingredients, which are two completely different tastes.
After Wu Bowen tasted the food, he also sincerely praised: "Fu Yu, this dish you made is indeed delicious!"
Xiao Hechou thought happily: "I plan to wait for Chef Zhang and Chef He to learn how to cook this dish, and then try to promote it in the store. I don't expect them to reach Fu Yu's level, as long as they can make it roughly." !”
"Really, this dish is absolutely amazing!"
"Fu Yu, you've learned a lot in cooking in the past two years. With this cooking skill, you will be able to cook wherever you go in the future!"
Xiao Hechou said, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Fu Yu: "Here, let me toast you. Thank you for your willingness to teach my two chefs how to make this dish. You are also welcome to come back in the future. , come to my small restaurant for a meal and sit down. Even if your Uncle Wu is not here, I will entertain you warmly, don’t worry about this!"
The last sentence, Xiao Hechou was just kidding.
After hearing this, Fu Yu smiled and drank a glass of wine with Xiao Hechou.
Wu Bowen stopped him at the side: "Okay, Fu Yu has to take a car in a while, drink less, that's fine!"
They were enjoying themselves in the front hall, changing glasses and changing glasses.
In the back kitchen, Zhang Chenyang was holding a spoon while thinking about the precautions for the cooking operation that Fu Yu had just explained.
He Yuzhou also had a thoughtful expression on his face and was obviously inspired.
Taking advantage of the stewing time, Zhang Chenyang took a moment to review the details of Fu Yu's cooking operations just now.
After a while, he sighed.
How many years have I not felt like this!
He Yuzhou on the side was also deeply touched. Unlike Zhang Chenyang, he had no formal training in cooking. He was just trying to figure it out on his own.
Therefore, he also has an understanding of Fu Yu's cooking, which may not be as profound as Zhang Chenyang's, but it is also very useful to him!
As a small worker in the kitchen, since the boss personally accompanied a young man to the kitchen just now and asked him to cook, the two chefs in his store only watched from the sidelines and were not even qualified to get started.
I can't help but gossip in my heart.
One person asked in a low voice: "Hey, who was that person just now?"
Another person also whispered: "Maybe it's the newly hired chef, right?"
The person from before said in surprise: "No way, it doesn't look like it."
The two of them were discussing in low voices, but no one expected that this young chef would suddenly become the student of their chef!
