Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 424

"...a toast to freedom, a toast to death, forgive my ordinaryness, dispel the confusion, well, I always leave the scene in a hurry after dawn, the most absurd is the sober..."

Gu Xiang hummed softly.

Qiuli and the others don't quite understand this song. To her, her little lady should be... singing nonsense, but it sounds very nice and touching.

Cherry raised her hand to wipe her eyes, then quickly buried her face in her hands and remained silent for a moment.

She also kind of wants to cry.

Obviously different from her easily excitable elder sister, she is usually a carefree little girl, and she doesn't even learn piano music very well. She has learned to play the piano all these years, but she was forced to learn it, but Miss Xixi can play it well. She couldn't hear the deep meaning of the song that many guests admired, but this time, because of the unknown little tune sung by the little lady, it felt like a layer of grass had grown in her heart, and she was very sour.

"Are sober people the most absurd?"

Cherry sat down in the corner, holding her chin and thinking about the little things she didn't know where to think of.

Gu Xiang's kitchen knife flew faster and faster, the light of the knife was like a net and like a cloud, and in an instant, the abalones became blossoming flowers, and all the ingredients were randomly piled up in the porcelain pot, and the flowers were clustered together, but Look, it's already beautiful before it's made into food.

Qiu Li felt that Gu Xiang's knife and the ingredients under her knife seemed to be alive.

Gu Xiang smiled lightly: "For this banquet, prepare something fresh, let's win by surprise."

She has studied the Bliss Banquet for a while, and the night Lu Yun brought a female killer with countless stories written on her face to her for dinner, she suddenly felt that she had made a breakthrough in the research of the "Bliss Banquet". Xiang himself named the series of dishes he wanted to develop 'Hongchen'.

The name is a bit cheesy, but absolutely appropriate.

She tried to make this kind of 'mortal' dishes by herself, which can inject the chef's emotions into it, and make the diners faintly feel that the style of painting is wrong, but there is a system, her life is like a picture of a TV series, comics and animation It's windy, it doesn't matter how magical it is.

Gu Xiang lifted the lid of the black ceramic pot on the stove. The hot duck soup inside had been boiled for three days and two nights. I used salt and wine for seasoning, and the other ingredients were useless, but she had to adjust these two flavors for half a month, and tried more than 100 times, and finally got the taste she was satisfied with.

Pick up the pot directly and slide a whole cluster of flowers into the pot.

Qiu Li stood up abruptly, her body leaned forward involuntarily, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a little confusion gradually appeared on her face.

Smoke billows from the Gu family's kitchen.

Relatively speaking, the various foods that Gu Ji sells outside are quite ordinary.

Xie Bin carried a few small rattan baskets and hurried into Xie Shang's study room. When he looked up, he saw Xie Shang serving the freshly cooked porridge.

"Another pancake?"

Xie Shang sighed, picked up a kraft paper bag, and took a bite, "Hmm."

His eyebrows immediately relaxed, and the depression on his face subsided, "The meat sauce added today is even more palatable than the sweet noodle sauce. Today's noodle cake is a bit less soft than yesterday's, but it is more crispy. Not bad."

Xie Shang has already eaten six meals of finger cakes for two days in a row, but it is better to eat something than nothing.

For the time being, he is far from getting tired of 'Gu Ji'.

"Hurry up and eat, we will go run errands for Miss Gu in a while."

Xie Shang laughed, "Look at the little lady's row of noodles, the No. 1 chef in the capital is running errands for her to deliver posts, tsk!"

Xie Bin: "..."

First?Ha ha.

Xie Bin didn't recognize Xie Shang as the No. [-] name in the capital, but the chefs and diners all over the capital who received invitations sent by Xie Shang's errands couldn't help but sigh that Gu Xiang had a great reputation.

Fan Lou's Cook Fan also received the invitation, stared at the invitation for a while, smacked his lower lip, and sighed: "When is it my turn to send this invitation?"

He is not young anymore.

The chef is actually a young man. Although he has rich experience, his energy and physical strength have declined. Even the five senses have declined, and his tongue has become less sharp than before. It became more and more difficult.

These well-known chefs in Beijing are all 30 years old to 40 years old.

Chef Fan is about to pass his best age, if he can't become famous again, he may have to rely on the sympathy of the old gourmets if he wants to fight for the title of Golden Chef in the future.

The chefs and diners all over the capital had different thoughts when they received the invitation.

Some diners who know 'Gu Ji' quite well, can't help but have some expectations in their hearts-whether this banquet can have the level of 'Elysium Banquet'?

Most of them have never been to 'Gu Ji', and only read the introduction from "Exploring Food", so they have more doubts.

The famous chefs in the capital have their own pride. I heard that Gu Xiang is just a 16-year-old girl. Even if I don’t have prejudice in my heart, it’s hard to believe how exquisite her cooking skills really are.

Regardless of their thoughts, more than half of those who received the invitation plan to go to the banquet.

Some people are willing to give Xie Shang some face even if they don't expect Gu Xiang's craftsmanship.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

This day is Gu Xiang's first appearance at Qinxing in the capital since he became the golden chef.

She didn't close the door, but Xie Bin sent someone to Zhang Luo, hung a sign introducing Gu Xiang at the door, asked someone to draw a poster, and specially prepared private seats around the stage.

At any rate, it made this banquet seem to be of a much higher standard.

"Brother Han, I'm tired from walking anyway, so why don't you go take a look?"

Zhao Han and Wang Guoguo didn't want to come to 'Gu Ji' for dinner, but happened to pass by. When they thought of this incident and Xie Shanggang sent the invitation, they went in to try it out.

The couple just left the capital for business last month. After returning to Beijing, the couple also heard a lot of messy rumors, all about that Gu Xiang. Zhao Han loves to be clean. The cooking skills are not expected.

In fact, neither Zhao Han nor Wang Guoguo spoke very highly of the so-called golden chefs in the capital.

"Xie Shang's craftsmanship is not bad, but his taste is too low. He can pick out some good points from all the cooks in the capital."

Zhao Han chuckled, "Fortunately, we don't pick our mouths, we can still fill our stomachs by eating plain rice, it's the same everywhere."

While talking, the two entered Gu Ji, found a place to sit down, looked up and saw the water sign, and saw the names of ingredients such as abalone and sea cucumber, they couldn't help frowning, showing some disappointment on their faces.

"It's this kind of tune again, yes, but with a bunch of expensive ingredients, it can always get a good comment. But such a dish, in a family like ours, can there be fewer people to cook?"

How many precious abalones, sea cucumbers, and shark fins can a young cook of 16 years old, or a small folk cook, handle in a lifetime?I haven't even seen it a few times, and I want to be able to compete with the cooks in their mansion who practice with these ingredients all day long?
