Chapter 63 Learning to use chopsticks

At noon, Zhang Feng came to the kitchen and prepared to cook in person.

Several servants were busy. When they saw Zhang Feng coming and were about to leave, Zhang Feng suddenly called them.

"etc!"

The servants immediately stopped and said respectfully:

"Master Lord!"

Zhang Feng touched his chin and asked:

"Does Caroline come to the kitchen often these days?"

Several servants looked at each other, and one of the older female servants spoke:

"Yes, Lord, Mrs. Caroline spends half of her time in the kitchen and makes a rice porridge every morning... By the way, on the morning of three days ago, Mrs. Caroline came to the kitchen before dawn. Because she forgot to open the chimney, we thought it was on fire. After rushing to come, we found that it was Mrs. Caroline cooking porridge..."

"Oh, that's it... I get it, let's go!"

Zhang Feng threw a silver coin to the old servant, and the servant took it in surprise.

"Thank you, Lord, for yourselves!"

After everyone retreated, Zhang Feng smiled.

He just said that he didn't say he would definitely come back this morning. Why did Caroline make breakfast for himself? It turned out that from the day he left, Caroline would prepare breakfast every day.

This explains why, as a person who can even fry eggs, can make a portion of exquisite lean meat porridge and perfect soft-boiled eggs.

Zhang Feng shook his head.

This girl is pretty stupid!

As soon as he complained about Caroline, he suddenly heard Caroline's voice.

"Mr. Zhang Feng?"

Zhang Feng turned his head and saw Caroline standing at the kitchen door in some way.

"What's wrong?"

"I...I want to learn how to cook with you! Is that OK?"

Caroline whispered embarrassedly.

"Of course it's no problem!"

After hearing Zhang Feng's agreement, Caroline walked in.

"Actually, my cooking skills are not particularly good. Part of the reason why the dishes you cook are better than those you cook are because of these things."

Zhang Feng pointed to the pile of bottles and jars and introduced.

"This thing is MSG, don't treat it as salt, it increases the umami flavor of food... In addition, this is chicken essence. As the name suggests, chicken essence is the umami flavor of chicken and is used to increase appetite... What, you said the chicken you made has no umami flavor, emmm, this problem is back to cooking..."

Zhang Feng gave Caroline a detailed introduction to the functions and usage of seasonings, and Caroline was memorizing them very seriously.

Then I observed Zhang Luo's technique again.

Zhang Feng was not impatient, and taught her in detail, and Caroline was also helping Zhang Feng.

If Zhang Feng could live a life of having a meal, he wouldn't mind.

Soon, in the busy schedule, Zhang Feng made a table for the two of them, a very sumptuous lunch.

Fried pork ears with garlic sprouts, sweet and sour carp, stewed with pork belly, stir-fried seaweed moss, lotus root and rib soup.

Four dishes and one soup.

Perhaps Zhang Feng can't stir-fry those difficult dishes, but he still has no problem with this kind of home-cooked dish.

The garlic sprouts are fresh, sweet, crispy and tender, braised pig ears are spicy and crispy; sweet and sour carp are burnt on the outside and tender on the inside; stewed with radish with pork belly, the meat is tender and fragrant and delicious; stir-fried seaweed moss has a bright color and a crispy and tender taste; lotus root and rib soup is extremely tender.

Each dish has its own characteristics.

Looking at these delicious foods with all colors, fragrance and flavor, Zhang Feng was very satisfied.

Caroline sat opposite Zhang Feng.

In addition to the food, there are also several beautiful goblets and a bottle of red wine on the table.

The glass and red wine were naturally taken out by Zhang Feng.

"Come on, try this red wine."

Zhang Feng raised his glass to Caroline. Caroline also followed suit and learned in a good manner.

Although it is a bit weird to eat Chinese food and drink red wine, there is no one here, so Zhang Feng can eat whatever he wants.

And in Caroline's eyes, Zhang Feng was so ritualistic. This was the real aristocrat.

“Good!”

The red wine Zhang Feng brought was much better than her "spicy wine".

Since it is Chinese food, the tableware is naturally chopsticks, but Zhang Feng forgot a little, Caroline doesn't know how to use chopsticks.

The long steel sword more than one meter long can make sword flowers in Caroline's hand, but the chopsticks more than twenty centimeters long left her helpless.

"Mr. Zhang Feng, I..."

Looking at Caroline holding a pair of chopsticks, she looked at herself pitifully.

Zhang Feng slapped his forehead and forgot about this!

"This is a kind of tableware from my hometown, so use it like this."

Zhang Feng picked up the chopsticks and gestured, but Caroline was still confused.

There was no way, Zhang Feng had to say:

"Or why you use a fork."

"oh."

Zhang Feng took out a stainless steel fork and handed it to Caroline. After Caroline took it, she watched Zhang Feng naturally use chopsticks to hold the dishes into the bowl, and then looked at the fork in her hand.

At this moment, Caroline felt that the distance between her and Zhang Feng seemed to be farther away, even from people from two worlds...

"What's wrong? Don't like this kind of food?"

Seeing that Caroline hadn't eaten, Zhang Feng asked strangely.

It shouldn't be! In order to take care of Caroline, he made it lighter. If he were alone, he would have been all kinds of chili in it.

"I like it! Just..."

Caroline was confused for a moment and bit her lip and said:

"I...I also want to use chopsticks like Lord Zhang Feng..."

Zhang Feng was a little surprised when he heard Caroline's words, but he still said:

"Okay, I'll teach you!"

Zhang Feng moved the chair and sat next to Caroline.

"This way, put your hands like this, and then try hard like this."

Zhang Feng followed Caroline and demonstrated it to her in person.

But learning to use chopsticks cannot be learned by just saying a few words.

Chinese people like Zhang Feng and others have used chopsticks since childhood and have developed a habit of slowly. They think chopsticks seem simple, but for those who are already accustomed to other tableware, such as Huo Guoren, it is not so easy to learn to use chopsticks, and few can learn them directly.

Of course, Caroline was the same. After watching it for a long time, she still couldn't learn it.

Zhang Feng was helpless, but he could understand it. He put down his chopsticks and grabbed Caroline's slender jade hand in an instant.

"ah!"

Caroline was frightened by Zhang Feng's sudden attack. She instinctively wanted to pull her hand back, but when she felt the warmth coming from Zhang Feng's big hand, she held it back and slowly relaxed.

"Zhang... Lord Zhang Feng..."

"I will teach you step by step!"

Zhang Feng didn't believe it anymore. He still taught Caroline how to use a pair of chopsticks?

"Yeah~"

Caroline's earlobes were a little red and nodded.

"This, this, then this!"

Holding Caroline's little hand, it was soft and a little cool. Zhang Feng taught Caroline very seriously.

Caroline also listened very seriously, but after more than ten minutes, Caroline couldn't even hold it, let alone picking up food.

"You are too stupid!"

Zhang Feng complained weakly, but did not scold Caroline cruelly. He could only turn his anger into appetite and ate a few pieces of meat in a row, which made him feel much better.

Just turned his head and saw Caroline swallowing saliva and looking at him with a gaze. Zhang Feng had no choice but to pick up a piece of pork belly and hand it to Caroline.

"Open your mouth."

Caroline opened her mouth naturally.

"Um~ delicious!"

Zhang Feng shook his head, and he picked up another pig ear for Caroline.
