Chapter 119

The so-called boiled rivers in water is hot pot.

The reputation is very domineering, and of course it must be worthy of its reputation. It can be seen that Ou Zhaofeng has put some thoughts on this hotpot cuisine.

Because it is well known that whether a hot pot is good depends on two aspects. One is the ingredients and the other is the soup base. Because it is limited to tuna, it is impossible for Ou Zhaofeng to make hot pot to use all the delicacies as ingredients. That is a slut, and he can't afford to lose his face. Therefore, he can only work hard on the soup base.

The milky white pot bottom cooked with fish head and bones is naturally delicious, but it is definitely not enough to amazed everyone. So Ou Zhaofeng naturally needs to improve it, and the pot of clear soup that can almost be bright and clear at the moment is his final masterpiece.

"Clean fish fillets, cook fish skin dumplings, please try it!"

A pot of thick, milky white fish soup is cooked until it is as clear as water, and there is a mystery here.

Taking this into consideration, Cao Wei used chopsticks to pick up a piece of fish meat and rinse it into the fish soup. Then he smelled the smell slightly, put it in his mouth and chewed it. The lively taste in his mouth immediately made his eyes narrow.

"The fish meat is tender and fragrant, which is the reason. But this taste is both delicious and fragrant and mellow than the mountain products. This is not an ordinary method. Brother, can you add any mountain products in it?"

"I tasted it right, I did add mountain products." Nodded, Ou Zhaofeng did not hide anything at all. "It is the traditional method of hanging soup. I first added dried bamboo fungus, bolete and ham to add its flavor. Then I used the meat foam cut into sauce to suck away the dry goods and scum in the soup, so that the soup became clear."

"What about the rest of the stuff?"

The clear soup hotpot is clear and clear. Another meaning is that there is not a single hair inside, just a simple pot of clear soup. But the fish bones are okay, but those dry goods are valuable and very delicious. Just cooking one dish and discarding it is too extravagant and wasteful. Cao Wei doesn't think that this is something Ou Zhaofeng, who is known as the old sting among his brothers, can do.

“In the dumplings!”

Once mentioned, Cao Wei immediately became interested in the dumplings placed on the plate. A fish-skin dumpling has been boiled, which is cooked. It is just to eat better and enjoy its delicious food, so it needs to roll it up in the soup.

And when you bite it open, the fresh and fragrant taste immediately bloomed on the tip of your tongue. That ultimate delicacy really makes people unable to resist swallowing it.

Cao Wei chewed carefully, feeling the rich and mellow fragrance that filled the beauty between his mouth and mouth. While quickly serving He Min a few with a small bowl, he raised a big thumb to Ou Zhaofeng.

"Senior brother is a good method. Chop the meat from the middle of the fish into minced meat, which is delicate but not fat. It is combined with the mellow aroma of the dried goods, and the smoothness of the steamed fish skin. After a bite of fish soup, and then a bite of this dumpling, this taste is true!"

"I'm so sorry, let me see my junior brother's method. I've been looking forward to this second dish for a long time."

Perhaps it was because he admitted that he lost before. At this moment, Ou Zhaofeng felt a little sad about things. He did not take Cao Wei's praise to heart, nor did he take other people's comments and performances seriously. As a chef, he now only has Cao Wei and the second dish he will present.

Judging from his appearance, Cao Wei could only lift the big plate around him with his hand.

“My second dish is like spring.”

In front of everyone was a plate of spring rolls. The surface was burnt and there was no sign of anything. Compared with the ultimate knife skills before, this plate of dishes was difficult to give people a visual impact. It looked ordinary and couldn't help but start muttering in a low voice.

"What, isn't this a spring roll?"

"Yes, can you tell by taking a bite? Boss..."

The crowd urged Ou Zhaofeng to go up and taste the first bite, but Ou Zhaofeng was not polite, so he picked up the spring roll and took it on.

The sound of the kazi means that the surface is very crispy. The butter that flows out of the mouth in an instant made Ou Zhaofeng's eyes widen.

"Good idea. The crispy crackling in the mouth is actually divided into two layers. One layer is a thin layer of fish, which should be the neck and belly meat. The other layer should be bean skin. The bean skin is wrapped with crab meat, shrimp and some diced vegetables. Crab roe and crab paste are also added. At high temperature frying, the crab paste dissolves into oil, soaks the filling and bean skin inside, and then spreads on the fish. After this bite, it has already covered the ultimate delicacy of seafood by 70% or 80%.

"It's a pity that although it's already excellent. Compared with the previous fish, this dish seems to be a little weaker than a little or two. Especially in the discussion of the taste of seafood, I think it can be more profound. What do you think, junior brother?"

Cao Wei was picking up food for He Min as usual, otherwise with He Min's personality, there would be a circle of people around him who would not even leave her with a warm mouth. When he heard Ou Zhaofeng say this, he shook his head with some regret.

"There is no way, there is really not enough time to use it. If possible, roast the conch meat, wrap it in the center, and add a little seaweed and diced octopus, which may make the taste and taste a little higher. But the process is complicated and the amount is too large. It is really not possible to get it done in just one hour. So, it is not wrong for senior brother to say that this is a semi-finished product."

"This is already very good. Junior brother, the teacher used to say that you were a genius in this field. He devoted himself to studying hard and took over his mantle, he might be able to surpass his achievements in the future and become a chef like a generation of chefs who promotes Chinese cuisine in the world. At that time, I didn't believe it, but now, I can no longer believe it."

"To be honest, junior brother, don't think about it anymore? If you are really willing to engage in this industry, I won't say much about it. It's not a problem to leave this Manhan Building to you to manage!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone present was shocked. Not to mention Cao Wei, the old brother who had been with him for more than ten years, was a little difficult to accept and understand.

This is Manhan Building, the top Chinese restaurants in Xiangjiang. Although they are so careless, they don’t have the luxurious style of a top-class restaurant. But when it comes to their background and strength, they beat those restaurants in more than ten streets.

A well-managed restaurant like them has hundreds of thousands of dollars in daily flow, and it is not a problem at all.

Although management is not for sale, it is still a piece of the pie. And such a consideration is truly a big deal and great courage.

At this time, let alone the old friend in the hotel, even Ou Jiahui, the daughter, couldn't help but look at Cao Wei a few more times, and began to guess in my heart whether the uncle in front of me was his illegitimate son who Lao Dou stayed outside back then.

Otherwise, Lao Dou would not be so easy to talk to, and the treatment would be almost better than her own daughter.

Cao Wei understood Ou Zhaofeng's mood.

If you really have a mind to be a chef, such a restaurant will not only be a big platform for you to shine, but also play a mutually beneficial role. While helping you continuously improve your cooking skills, you can also gradually promote the name of the restaurant to the world.

You can think of Xiangjiang No. 1, Asia No. 1, China No. 1, and even the world No. 1, but the ambition is not here. Even though this first place is indeed very loud, Cao Wei still rejected this attractive invitation.

"Sorry, senior brother. I really don't have the will to do this. So I'd better appreciate your kindness."

"No, junior brother. What are you thinking? Is the conditions I opened are not good, or do you think my Manhan Building is small and can't tolerate you, a big Buddha. Don't look at my Manhan Building, but to be honest, in terms of the ability to attract money, tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars a year are really casual. If you are in charge of such a restaurant, even if you are in Xiangjiang, you can be considered a rich man No. 1. And why do you study hard? In the end, it's not just to make money. What is the way to make money? What's more, I'm just so honest, and it's not embarrassing to make money!"

"This is not a matter of money or not, senior brother. I never care about how much money I have. As long as I can live happily, why isn't it a way to live?"

"Then what you mean is that being a chef is wronged and makes you feel uncomfortable? No, why are you? Apart from being a chef, we are not as glamorous as those big stars, and we cannot compare with other professions when we are dedicated. Even in terms of dedication, we are also working hard for millions of people to eat well. Is this profession not honorable?"

"Glorious! But not glorious enough." Cao Wei told the truth, and before he could wait for Ou Zhaofeng to protest, he immediately explained.

"Senior brother, I know what you mean. But I really think that compared to being a chef, I should be able to do something more meaningful."

"After all, no matter how good a chef is, he is just a chef. You don't eat much more, and you don't eat much less. The country will not become stronger because you are better than other chefs. But some professions are different."

"I'm talking far, Newton, Copernicus, Faraday, and Einstein, Oppenheimer, and Qian Xuesen... Such scholars not only support the development of modern civilization, but also become the iron walls and pillars of their respective countries. I've been here since I was a child, so I'm sorry, I really can't give up my ideal."

That being said, everyone understands the truth. But Ou Zhaofeng still wants to struggle for a while.

"Those scientists are amazing, but can you be a scientist just as you want?"

"The problem is that I can, I have this confidence. Of course, whether you believe it or not, it's your business for you, brother."

"You..." Ou Zhaofeng pointed hard and was a little anxious, but he couldn't help but sighed. "Forget it, just do whatever you like."
