Chapter 2630: Cassavas

Translator: 549690339

Master Xiang’s plans were not known to others, only Xiang Tao occasionally cooperated with him, his hand gestures moving quickly.

Master Xiang’s voice was the only one throughout the entire process, but he still enjoyed it. It was as if he wished he had a time accelerator in his hand, so that with just a flick of his fingers, it would be next year immediately.

It could also be that he had eaten too much Taro and his nervous system could not handle the excitement. At least, Xiang Tao looked at master Xiang helplessly, but of course, he was still very tolerant and accommodated master Xiang’s mood.

Yuan Zhou didn’t know about the case with his master. Recently, he had been competing with various food ingredients, especially some common food ingredients that could be used as staple foods or main ingredients.

In the beginning, Yuan Zhou used all kinds of beans as an experiment. For beans, he used soybeans as a reference. Tofu, bean skin, dried bean, and so on were simply too many. As for other beans, he just used the processing methods of soybeans as a reference.

This was just a work for practice. Even if he could easily complete the mission, Yuan Zhou felt that as a future master chef, he should try some paths that others had not taken and create some new dishes so as to not let down the purpose of the mission issued by the system.

Therefore, after beans, Yuan Zhou began to compete with all kinds of tubers, such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, Chinese yam and so on.

The sweet potato could be made into sweet potato starch noodles, or even sweet potato noodles. It could meet the requirements of one to three.

The other tuber-type ingredients also had various changes, which allowed Yuan Zhou to feel out some rules of the changes of the ingredients. As a result, his comprehension of cooking skills became more and more profound.

After the dinner time ended and Yuan Zhou prepared the food in the pub, he started to do the experiment as usual.

The biggest benefactors of Yuan Zhou’s experiment were definitely Wu Hai, the hairy bear, and Yin ya. In fact, the finished products were originally meant for Yin ya and Yuan Zhou to eat. However, Wu Hai’s nose was really sharp. Moreover, there were indeed a lot of them. Even if Yin ya didn’t care about her weight, she still wouldn’t be able to finish them all. Therefore, she could only let Wu Hai and the hairy bear eat them all.

Wu Hai indicated that it would be better if he could make the food come at him more violently. His stomach had already been fully prepared.

The ingredient that Yuan Zhou intended to practice today was cassavas. As one of the three major types of potatoes in the world, cassavas were also a well-known ingredient all over the world. Of course, it was more famous not only for its satiety as a staple food but also for its toxicity. If one did not handle the cassavas carefully, it could easily cause poisoning. It was not very common in the daily life of China. More commonly, it was used in its powder products, the wood potato powder, which was more widely used.

......

Of course, it was a piece of cake for Yuan Zhou to deal with the cassava. It was just a matter of raising his hand. The time for soaking the cassava had come to an end today. The cassava, which had been mostly water-soluble and toxic, could now be cooked in the next step.

The cassava was one of the gifts that Xiang Yang and Wu kun had brought to Yuan Zhou. Min province was the second largest cassava-producing area in China and had a wide range of planting areas. A few years ago, Xiang Yang had cultivated a new type of cassava. They all knew that Yuan Zhou liked to collect new or lost food ingredients, so they brought the fresh cassava with them this time.

“I wonder if cassavas can be made into vermicelli and other ingredients like bellflowers.”

Yuan Zhou observed the soaked cassava and found that the taste was indeed different from when it was fresh at the beginning. It didn’t have such a pungent fragrance. Instead, it seemed to have become more harmonious after being fermented for a long time.

To be honest, Yuan Zhou didn’t use the cassava very often in his daily cooking. Therefore, he came here this time by trial and error, intending to cook some fresh food for Yin ya.

“The sun is shining in the sky, the flowers smile at me, the bird says ...”

The familiar ringing of the phone interrupted Yuan Zhou’s thoughts. Usually, after the business hours ended, as long as he wasn’t having a cooking exchange with others, he would turn off the ringing of his phone in case someone called him and missed the call.

However, it was rare for someone to call at this time, unless it was really an emergency.

“Oh, it’s actually head chef ju man Li. I wonder what business you have with me?” Yuan Zhou picked up the phone and saw ju man Li’s number.

Ju man Li had looked down on Yuan Zhou at the beginning when he participated in the bogus cooking competition, thinking that he was just a product of August’s fuss. But ever since he was conquered, ju man Li was really qualified to be a France chef.

Not only did he come to China’s Chengdu every once in a while to eat Yuan Zhou’s dishes, but he also had to find some legitimate reasons each time, such as sending Yuan Zhou an invitation letter to some cooking competition. Of course, one shouldn’t misunderstand that the invitation letter was definitely to invite Yuan Zhou to be a judge and not a contestant. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be as simple as crushing him, but to destroy the belief of the new generation of chefs. After all, they were not on the same level.

It was something like a seminar. In fact, he didn’t need to make a call himself for something that could be settled by a phone call. However, man Li was showing his respect for Yuan Zhou and his sincerity. He wanted to visit Yuan Zhou in person. He had been to Chengdu many times. In total, he was not inferior to August, who had known Yuan Zhou for more than a year. From that, one could tell how many times he had come to China.

From the side, one could also see that Yuan Zhou had quite a reputation in the European cooking circle since he became famous in Europe.

Ju man Li usually came to Yuan Zhou’s place personally and rarely called him by phone. The number of times he had called Yuan Zhou could be counted with five fingers. Therefore, Yuan Zhou couldn’t guess what he wanted to say.

“Good afternoon, head chef ju man Li. May I know what business you have with me?” Yuan Zhou said straightforwardly as soon as he answered the phone.

Although it was night time in Chengdu, it was afternoon in France, which was the perfect time for afternoon tea.

“Haha, good evening, head chef Yuan. I hope I’m not disturbing you. I’m calling to invite you to attend the seminar.” Ju man Li said in a friendly manner.

He didn’t look like a difficult person to deal with like he did in the competition. Instead, he was very affable. If someone knew ju man Li, they might even think that he was a different person. However, only Yuan Zhou had such treatment. Otherwise, even Auguste didn’t have it. He didn’t say anything because ju man Li was in a good mood today.

Yuan Zhou sighed inwardly. Ju man Li would come to China almost every two months and invite him to participate in all kinds of activities. Most of them were chef exchange activities. However, Yuan Zhou would refuse them almost all because of the long distance. However, ju man Li would still come with great interest every time.

Although he felt very embarrassed, Yuan Zhou had been paying more attention to the task of completing the test recently. Therefore, he refused without thinking,””I’m sorry, head chef ju man Li. I’ve been working on a new dish recently, and I’m on a tight schedule. I can’t leave.”

“Head chef Yuan, don’t be in such a hurry to reject me. This seminar is very different from the others. Personally, I hope that you can attend it. Moreover, the time isn’t now. It’s in September next year, which is still early.” Ju man Li finished his sentence in one breath.
