Chapter 571(1/2)
Although he knew that Huang Su seemed to have complaints about him, Chen Nian didn't mind these things, anyway, the other party would not cause any harm to him.
When he was under Huang Su's hands, he had already figured out Huang Su's character and temper.
He is a little bit petty, but he is still very simple. Although sometimes speaking is particularly ugly, it is only limited to saying something. He dare not do anything he really wants him to do.
Just like Huang Su was obviously looking at him there, with some bad eyes in his eyes, and sometimes he could even see the other party and his chefs talking about something.
.
But every time he passed by, Feng Su would smile again, as if the previous thoughts had never appeared in his mind.
Moreover, Feng Su has never really done anything that is unfavorable to him. Otherwise, Feng Su would have been on this ship for a long time, and it would be easy to join forces with others to exclude him.
But Flavin didn't do that.
So Chen Nian was not worried about Huang Su at all, and came here tonight to tell Huang Su that he would be accepted as a disciple by Mr. Huo soon. This was also intentional by Chen Nian.
The purpose is to tell Huang Su that there is no competition with him. Although Huang Su still feels uncomfortable when he says this, Huang Su is obviously a smart person who is both weak and stubborn, but knows how to judge the situation.
Soon, Chen Nian got the method of making lychee meat from Feisu, and based on Chen Nian's experience, there is nothing wrong with this method.
He came out of Master Huang's room with satisfaction, looked around and saw that there was no one, then he quietly brought the door and returned to his room.
However, if you want to cook, you can only wait until tomorrow. You didn’t report it in advance today, so Chen Nian couldn’t go to the kitchen to try it on his own.
Just apply tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Chen Nian lay on the bed. Although he couldn't practice today, it was still OK to go through the general steps in his mind.
There are several more important parts to make lychee meat, and I have clearly recorded the aging. One is that when frying lychee meat, I had to keep a temperature of 60% to 70% of the oil in the pan.
Secondly, after removing the lychee meat, drizzle it with cool oil to maintain a crispy texture.
According to Xiao Huang, the lychee meat made in this way can still maintain a crispy texture even if it is left for a few hours.
And when you make the owl later, it is best to make the owl of juice with local vinegar from Fujian to make it more authentic.
Chen Nian nodded while thinking.
Vinegar is also used in dishes, but vinegar has its own characteristics in every place, such as Baoning Vinegar from Sichuan, Zhenjiang Vinegar from Jiangsu, old vinegar from Shanxi, etc. In addition, there are some
Rice vinegar and balsamic vinegar and the like.
The vinegar mentioned by flavonoid is the local balsamic vinegar in Fujian called Yongchun Old Vinegar. At that time, Chen Nian also learned about the method of Yongchun Old Vinegar. It is somewhat different from other vinegars. It will use glutinous rice during brewing.
And red yeast rice, and for the mellow taste of vinegar, sesame should be added to adjust the aroma of vinegar, which will taste sour and sweet.
After several times in my mind, Chen Nian already had a rough impression of this dish.
If this menu is simply a home-cooked dish, it doesn't need to be so complicated, but Feng Su didn't hold back at all when he was teaching it, and directly told Chen Nian a more complex and exquisite version.
Of course, when Chen Nian listened, he felt that Feng Su was deliberately talking about this version. After all, many dishes may not be able to completely record all the details just by listening.
Huang Su thought this way, especially Chen Nian was so young, but what he didn't know was that Chen Nian ate this bowl of rice, and what he paid attention to was quick eyes, quick hands, and good brain.
If not, how could Chen Nian be so smooth in the dream spaces in front of him?
In the early days of hundreds or even thousands of years, in the kitchen, it was sometimes the process of the master's thoughts, the eyes of the apprentice and the brain game.
The master tried every means to hide his skills, while the apprentice tried every means to learn.
However, Chen Nian is quite lucky. Perhaps it is because of the bonus and help of this recipe that he basically has no ups and downs when learning the dishes.
That's how the next day, Chen Nian came to the kitchen early in the morning.
Although the various ingredients on the boat are taken from the warehouse that specializes in storing various ingredients every day, Aged is used to getting up early and always feels that if you can come a little earlier, you can get fresher and better things.
And after coming every day, Chen Nian had to check whether the seasonings on the table were enough, open it to see if the seasonings inside had deteriorated. Even after getting used to it, Chen Nian remembers the location of the kitchen every day clearly.
Anyone who moves can tell you that the old man can see.
After all, with the previous life, Chen Nian had to be careful, if anyone wanted to get dirty and frame him.
Only after everything is checked is OK, Aged will start to prepare and process the ingredients seriously.
Of course, during the process of processing ingredients, you don’t need to start working so early. You can just leave some basic work to the helper to handle.
At this time, Aged can walk around and chat with other chefs.
But just as he was walking around, Chen Nian suddenly saw McGrady flashing through the door, and he hurriedly followed him.
"Mr. McGrady, please stay!" Chen Nian called out from behind.
McGrady stopped, turned her head curiously, and after seeing that it was Chen Nian, there was a smile on her face: "It turned out to be Master Chen, are you doing something to ask me?"
Chen Nian came to the other party and owed his body a little, saying hello, and then said his purpose: "That's right, Mr. McGrady, I want to apply for permission to use the kitchen at night."
"Why?" McGrady didn't say much, but asked the reason for the old age.
"Because I feel like I am a young chef and I still have a lot of things to learn, but now our work is still very easy, so I want to wait until the work is over in the evening and stay in the kitchen to practice.
You can learn other dishes so that you can keep improving.”
McGrady smiled: "It can be seen that Master Chen is a very motivated young man. This proposal is very good, but I need to go back and ask Mr. Huo for advice. If it goes well, I will come to you during the afternoon break."
Chen Nian was overjoyed after hearing this: "Really? That's great, thank you Mr. McGrady, and any ingredients I used on the boat can be deducted from my salary."
"These are not problems." McGrady patted Chen Nian on the shoulder, "Work hard, young man, Mr. Huo attaches great importance to you, I hope you don't let him down."
Chen Nian hummed a small song and returned to the kitchen.
Another thing happened.
Seeing that the time was almost over, he began to prepare today's lunch, and the chefs continued to process the ingredients that needed rough processing.
It was not until around 10:30 in the morning that West came to the kitchen.
"Master Chen, today I will submit some dishes reserved by the guests to you. I will put the menu on your table first, with the names of the dishes and the time the guests plan to use."
Chen Nian looked at West and felt that this kid was lucky. Maybe he was not doing anything about that fate.
"Okay, please trouble you, but how is your work feeling recently? I always see you delivering food to Miss Anna. Is it meaningful to Miss Anna?" Chen Nian asked with a deliberate smile.
After the words came to a close look on West's face, but it quickly returned to normal: "Master Chen, don't joke, I'm just a waiter, this is my job."
Chen Nian could see that the other party was lying. When he liked someone, he would reveal a different spirit from others when he heard the person's name.
And West betrayed him unnaturally at that moment.
But he didn't say anything else, but picked up the ordering menu and took a look.
"Recently, Mr. Paul, a distinguished guest from the third floor, always seems to order my dishes. I remember that his taste is sweeter?" Chen Nian saw a familiar name.
In the past few days, Paul basically ordered a squirrel mandarin fish every day at noon, and it was basically reserved.
"Yes, Mr. Paul likes the dish you make very much, and he seems to be in a good mood recently. According to my observations of customers, many people like to eat some sweet-tasting foods when they are in a good mood.
"Wess nodded.
"I just said it. It seems that I remember correctly. Remember to come over on time at noon, and I will prepare the dishes at that time."
"no problem."
When cooking at noon, it is the same as usual. The work is the job. Moreover, the number of people who order the dishes they make every day has gradually begun to stabilize, which is more convenient for aging dishes.
But just after work was over, it was around 1:30 in the afternoon.
Guests have basically gone back to rest after lunch, and they can start cleaning the kitchen as well.
"Master Chen, come on."
At this moment, McGrady went straight to the kitchen and called Chen Nian out.
"You guys clean up, I'll check it out later." Chen Nian reminded the chefs who were cleaning up the stove and cooking utensils before leaving.
Arrived on the corridor.
"Your application has been approved by Mr. Huo, and he also said that you just need to use whatever ingredients you need to use, just go directly to the warehouse. I will go to the warehouse to talk to the person in charge later.
But from my personal perspective, I would like to remind you again that it is best not to waste those ingredients. After all, Mr. Huo is a person who doesn’t like to waste.”
Chen Nian nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. McGrady, I hate waste too."
"That's good."
Looking at McGrady's departure back, Chen Nian couldn't help but sigh that there was a reason why the other party could be with Mr. Huo for so long.
At least you are very comfortable when speaking and doing things. You will not communicate with someone too superficially. Just like before, you will be able to convey what you should convey, but you will not be stingy with what you should remind yourself.
But just as Chen Nian was about to go back, he suddenly saw a small figure appearing at the end of the corridor.
After looking closely, Chen Nian found that it was Anna!
He had learned that the two victims on the ship were Anna's parents before, so he felt a little surprised when he found out that Anna actually came here.
And Anna obviously waved to herself.
Chen Nian confirmed that there was only himself around him now, so he walked over.
"Is there anything wrong? Miss Anna." Chen Nian looked at the other party's thin figure, and even her cheeks were slightly sunken. Her originally delicate baby face looked quite haggard at this moment.
"Sir, I don't know who to look for on the boat now. I can only think of you. I hope you can help me." Anna pulled Chen Nian's arm and suddenly started to bring rain.
"Miss Anna, you are a distinguished guest on the boat. If you need any help, you can tell me first. If I can help, I will definitely help." Chen Nian couldn't help but soften his voice.
