Chapter 598(1/2)
Late Night Spring (Please Meal)
The main reason is that the methods of placing the dishes that Hannian has mastered now cannot help the dish continue to improve its appearance.
There are several common methods of placing the plate. The first is to use plants such as radish, mint, etc. to carve or use its own appearance to make a shape as a decoration for color.
The second is to put the food itself into a special shape, or transform the ingredients when it is made, such as squirrel mandarin fish. This is the most classic way to use the ingredients itself as one of the ways to serve the dishes.
However, in addition to cutting out the scale-like strips of the mandarin fish body, you can also control the curl of the fish body when you put it in the oil pan.
There is also a third type that can be regarded as a fusion of the first two, and then a certain degree of elevation is carried out.
For example, when the dish is served, it looks like a real brush hanging on the shelf, and ink is also served.
No matter how you look at it, I just think it's true.
But in fact, this brush is edible, and the ink is also a specially made dipping sauce.
Of course, the tray and the shelf with the pen are real, but if you are interested, these two can also be made with food.
But this dish is called brush-cooked instead of the Four Treasures of Study, so there is no need to make the point mistakes.
Finally, there are those more common methods of placing plates. For example, many slices of meat can be arranged neatly in a row, or they can be arranged along the round tableware into a circle.
Or put into various other shapes.
Generally speaking, these are the methods of placing food.
But after thinking about it, it was not suitable to put it on top of chicken glutinous rice bamboo shoots.
The others are easy to say, mainly because this chicken glutinous rice is more difficult to deal with.
In this way, Chen Nian made it for two days, and even the last 0:00 was made up, reaching 99%. However, Chen Nian still did not come up with any good plans when placing the plate.
This made Chen Nian feel troubled.
But just when he was about to go and talk to Xiao Huang again, if Xiao Huang could not give any solution, he would go to Mr. Huo.
A word that Chen Nian heard when she was blowing on the deck during non-business hours opened up Chen Nian's mind.
Because the weather was good on the day, Chen Nian did not go back to the room after work, but went to the deck to have a blowout.
But while staying alone, I suddenly felt a few businessmen coming from not far away.
They seemed to be talking about products there.
One of them said: "I have high-end customers in my hands. They have to use something more refined than ordinary people. You don't have to consider the cost-effectiveness, size, as long as it is exquisite, because the money they give far exceeds the price-performance ratio and size.
The product itself.
Our brand and our designs are extra worthy to the goods, which is the existence of luxury goods you know?”
Although this was not what Chen Nian said, Chen Nian understood it on the spot after hearing it.
So that night, Chen Nian did not rush to make it, but carefully considered the proportions used for each ingredient.
It only started to produce it later.
Although the same steps as before are made, it is different at the last step.
Aged did not put all the shredded bamboo shoots and the chicken that had been completely crunchy into the pot.
Instead, separate them.
Originally, a large amount of aged amount was only used a little bit this time, and it was less than 1/10.
After making it, Chen Nian directly placed the chicken glutinous rice balls with almost 2 to 3 pieces in the center of a very delicate plate with a diameter of about ten centimeters.
Because the middle of this plate is white, the surroundings are decorated with patterns of other colors.
Under the chicken glutinous rice are some very thin cut bamboo shoots that have been laid in advance.
In this way, chicken glutinous rice balls and bamboo shoots are also available.
But if you look at it this way, Chen Nian still feels that he is not decorated enough, so he puts his thoughts on the golden silk again.
When making Yangzhou fried rice, you need to use eggs to make egg pine.
And to put it blush, the shape and color of the egg pine is more like gold wire.
So Chen Nian fryed some eggs in a pan with eggs. After taking them out, he used scissors to remove the excess, and then placed it on top of the chicken glutinous rice.
Finally, some color embellishments were made next to it.
"This will make you look much more pleasing to the eyes." I said, how could the emperor eat a meal against such a large piece of meat?
No matter how the imperial chefs do, they can't just make such a dish. They spend a lot of effort and make it for a long time. They are not good-looking and have a large quantity. Even if the emperor likes to eat, they can only eat three or four bites at most."
At this time, Chen Nian looked at the proficiency of this dish again, and it had reached 99.87%.
"It seems that there is no problem with the direction. If you do the remaining proficiency again, you will probably be able to complete it." Chen Nian was still very satisfied with his improvement, and the reason why he couldn't achieve 100% completely
Chen Nian felt that it was probably because he did not move smoothly when placing the plate later, so the dishes were a little cold when using them for too long.
There is a saying in the Chinese restaurant industry that is called "one hot top and ten fresh" and this is the reason.
But after having the direction, Chen Nian was no longer worried.
Anyway, there are still a lot of dried bamboo shoots, and I have not even used a pound in the past two days.
But after eating today's midnight snack, Aged suddenly felt unsatisfied.
After all, I used to eat a large portion, but today the portion has shrunk by more than ten times.
Although this level and level of beauty have improved, it is a big deal to not fill your stomach.
Chen Nian is now used to eating midnight snacks and eats whatever dishes he practices. Now he is not full, so he is naturally very uncomfortable.
So after tidying up the kitchen, Chen Nian came directly to it without changing her clothes.
Late night snacks are provided on the Platinum Star.
You can ask the waiter to order food directly, and then ask the waiter to deliver it to the room, or you can go to the open late-night snack restaurant to have a meal.
Chen Nian himself, as a staff member on the ship, was not easy to use his colleagues.
But when Chen Nian came here, the chef who was working inside couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he saw Chen Nian.
I wondered if the youngest and most promising master on the ship was coming to take the exam to teach me?
Because the late-night snack kitchen is equipped with a red-collar chef and three blue-collar chefs.
Without helping the kitchen, the ingredients are prepared by yourself.
Everyone is responsible for their own dishes. In addition to the unified dispatch and management of the Red Collar Chef, in fact, the Red Collar Chef is too lazy to care about anything in daily work.
After all, not many people come to have dinner at night.
There are only more than twenty customers in total, and there are not many ingredients used, so there is nothing to manage.
Therefore, it is looser overall.
And the most important thing about them is that they will not participate in the food selection. Just not participating in the food selection does not mean that they will not go to watch it on site.
They have already known the old faces on the boat. They are basically clear who has better cooking skills and who is better at cooking. Therefore, the new faces that emerged in these food selections make them more interesting.
Interested more.
In addition, they heard some internal rumors that Mr. Huo seemed to have accepted Chen Nian as his apprentice, and they usually don’t belong to the same kitchen, so they always felt that Chen Nian was covered with a mysterious veil.
So I will feel nervous after seeing the old one this night.
Perhaps Mr. Huo asked Chen Nian to see how good they are, or perhaps Chen Nian himself wanted to come and see if the cooking skills of the people in other kitchens are high or low.
Of course, Chen Nian himself didn't know this, so he came to the window and looked at the menu.
"Master, please give me a bowl of Yangchun noodles and add a braised egg." Chen Nian quickly determined what he wanted to eat.
"Do you want chopped green onion?" The chef inside asked again after hearing this.
"If you want, please give me more trouble."
Then Chen Nian sat aside and waited.
But he could just see the kitchen through the window.
The chef inside was very skillful in putting the noodles into the pot.
Then Chen Nian saw the chef starting to add ingredients to the bowl, chopped fine chopped chopped green onions, a little salt, a little sugar to enhance the flavor, and a spoonful of soy sauce and a half spoonful of vinegar.
Chen Nian also saw the other party dig a small piece of white solid from the jar next to him. Chen Nian felt that it should be lard. Finally, the chef brought a little sesame oil into it, and then poured half a bowl of broth.
A glass of water.
At this time, the noodles were cooked, and the other party directly used chopsticks to pick up the noodles, like neatly arranged noodles, hanging them smoothly on the chopsticks.
Finally put it neatly in the bowl.
After setting the noodles, the chef took another plate and took out a braised egg from another pot.
Finally, I took it out and placed it on the old table.
"Thank you." Chen Nian hurriedly thanked, then looked at the steaming bowl of Yangchun noodles, smelled the fragrant soy sauce and the faint smell of sesame oil, and his appetite suddenly grew.
Sure enough, I cook too much by myself, and eating what others cook once will be different.
To be continued...
