Chapter 2515: Chapter 59 letter of challenge
Translator: 549690339
The green onions were not eye-catching, but the faint taste added a bit of elegance to the thick ink and colorful noodles. It was as if there was a little indifference hidden in the strong flavor. When the show reached its climax, it slowly became dull, but it was still memorable.
Ji Gang seemed to have opened the door to a new world. He held the bowl of noodles and gobbled it up. A mouthful of meat, a mouthful of noodles, and a mouthful of soup were properly arranged.
Ji Gang only came back to his senses after eating the last mouthful of meat. He put the last mouthful of meat into his mouth and slowly sipped it. It wasn’t that he wanted to slowly eat it, but he wanted to use his sharp taste to see if he could find any spices. Perhaps he could add them to his marinade.
Of course, he had to discuss with Yuan Zhou whether he needed to pay the fee before he added. Ji Gang knew that.
“Bay leaves, caoguo, cinnamon, fennel, these are all common spices, but the faint sweetness in this seems to be different from the direct addition of rock sugar. Is it another medicinal material? Or some other new candy?” Ji Gang furrowed his brows, a little uncertain.
Unfortunately, the meat had been finished. There was still some marinade left at the mouth of the bowl, which must have been rubbed by him when he accidentally dragged the big meat to the bowl. So his first reaction was to pick up the bowl and lick it little by little. When he was halfway done, Ji Gang’s eyes lit up.
He suddenly thought that the faint sweetness was the taste of licorice, and there seemed to be some taste of fresh orange peel, but he was not sure.
It had always been said that it was ten prescriptions and nine herbs, but the ingredients of the braised meat were not pure medicinal prescriptions after all. Most of the ingredients relied on the tongue of the old master to match themselves, so many people were not used to adding licorice. Of course, there were also some, but Ji Gang did not.
At the thought of this herb, Ji Gang felt that he could match it with his own prescription, so he licked it even more vigorously.
“Is there a problem with this?” Yuan Zhou was attracted by Ji Gang’s actions.
Although most of the customers in the restaurant had licked their plates before and Wu Hai was a clean washing machine, his smile was even more disgusting than Ji Gang’s when he licked the plates. He laughed while licking the plates and even laughed out loud from time to time. No matter how one looked at it, he looked so vulgar. It was really rare and thus attracted Yuan Zhou’s attention.
It just so happened that Ji Gang and the others were the last batch of customers. Therefore, Yuan Zhou, who was relatively free, paid more attention to him. It was also good to watch the fun.
Seeing Ji Gang put down the plate that was as white as new, Yuan Zhou was quite impressed by his ability to lick the plate,””He’s just slightly weaker than Wu Hai. There aren’t many people who can win against him in this small restaurant. ”
......
Ji Gang, who didn’t know that he was being praised, dawdled and didn’t leave with the others after Yuan Zhou told him that the breakfast time was over. Instead, he waited at the back until su Ruoyan and the customers had left before he went up to explain the recipe of the braised meat to Yuan Zhou.
Only then did Yuan Zhou know why this guy had done that. When he heard Ji Gang say that he had found two ingredients, namely licorice and fresh orange peel, he felt that this guy was quite talented in braised meat.
Yuan Zhou didn’t put too much of either the licorice or the orange peel. Moreover, he didn’t put them in the small bag like the marinade. Instead, he squeezed the juice out and the taste was lighter. However, Ji Gang was able to taste it. His tongue was very sensitive.
It wasn’t in vain that he hadn’t eaten any strong-flavored dishes to protect his tongue since he decided to do this. It was not easy to restrain himself from eating strong-flavored dishes in Chengdu. Ji Gang absolutely loved braised meat.
“Since you found it out yourself, you can try it yourself. You don’t have to tell me.” Yuan Zhou said.
Yuan Zhou was already very familiar with this kind of situation. The main reason was that too many chefs came to his restaurant to order a dish to learn. When they learned something, they would tell Yuan Zhou that they wanted to go back and improve it according to his dishes. Of course, there were also many who told him in advance before ordering.
Many chefs, especially those from Chengdu City, often came to the restaurant to order their specialty dishes and pondered while eating. It was no secret in the circle of chefs. They often met chefs with similar types of dishes and overlapping specialties.
In the past, if the two chefs ‘specialty dishes were similar or overlapped with each other, they would try their best to surpass each other, even if they didn’t hate each other very much. Yuan Zhou’s selfless method of spreading his cooking skills had changed the current situation in the cooking industry. Inspired by Yuan Zhou, although they didn’t share their best dishes, they would also discuss their general learning experiences and insights.
Very soon, everyone realized that one person’s foresight was inferior to two people ‘s. It seemed like they were at a disadvantage to share it, but otherwise, they could learn a lot of things that they had overlooked or never thought of from others. Their progress was still quite great.
“Thank you, head chef Yuan.” Ji Gang bowed to Yuan Zhou and expressed his gratitude.
He didn’t say anything more, but Ji Gang had already made up his mind. After he tested the best formula, he would give the first portion of the braised meat to Yuan Zhou to taste as a form of thanks.
Ji Gang didn’t come here often, but he also knew that Yuan Zhou must be very busy. Therefore, he left very consciously after he finished talking about the business.
After Yuan Zhou saw him off, he went back to the kitchen and continued practicing the miracle cut. Recently, he felt that it was time for him to improve his knife skills, so he had been practicing all the time. After all, Practice Made Perfect. As long as he kept practicing, he would definitely make a breakthrough.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhou’s apprentices didn’t know that he had acquired another knife skill of the collector’s level. Otherwise, they would probably cry to death. One should know that the previous knife skills he had learned were only superficial. Now, he had acquired another knife skill that was on par with the previous one. It was indeed good and there were many things to learn, but it was also really difficult.
He thought that his talent was absolutely not bad, but in front of Yuan Zhou, he was even worse than ordinary people.
However, none of his disciples, including Cheng zhaomei, knew that. Therefore, they were still very cautious and conscientious, diligently studying and digesting the notes that Yuan Zhou had given them in the past month.
While it was calm and peaceful at Yuan Zhou’s side, it was quite turbulent at Italy. Of course, it was just the beginning.
The cause of the incident was Alessandro, the famous Italy sausage Godfather, who casually said in an interview with an Italian newspaper,”although Yuan is a very good chef, in terms of making sausages, I can definitely surpass him in terms of sausages.”
Originally, this sentence only showed that Alessandro was very confident in his sausage-making skills. It was not a big problem, and it also showed his confidence in himself.
It was impossible for someone who had learned for decades to admit defeat before even competing.
Alessandro’s old rival, bardolio, had spread the word that Alessandro wanted to challenge Yuan and was issuing a letter of challenge ...
