Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 626 That Person Is Me

After going back and tidying up again, and putting all the bought ingredients into the refrigerator, everyone went back to change their clothes.

After changing their clothes, Chen Nian and Huo Fuyun came to the kitchen to prepare the evening staff meal for everyone.

But at this moment, Qin Xiaoqing suddenly said that she was not very hungry and was losing weight recently.

When Chen Nian saw Master Huo's expression, his expression suddenly dimmed. After all, when they were on the road, Master Huo wanted to cook a sumptuous dinner for everyone.

And just after Qin Xiaoqing finished speaking, Huang Daan also echoed: "Master Huo, you don't know us. As an actor, you usually don't dare to eat indiscriminately. You must keep your body in check."

Hearing this, Chen Nian felt a little weird, wanted to complain, but couldn't say it out loud.

What do you call us? Isn't this directly dividing everyone into two types of people?You stars are one kind of person, so Master Huo and I are not the same kind of person as you?
This made him a little upset, and he couldn't help looking at Master Huo.

Huo Fuyun turned his back to the crowd and was fiddling with the stove. Chen Nian still saw a hint of displeasure in the other party's eyes, but he still didn't say anything in the end.

And Chen Nian looked at the other people again, Huang Daan couldn't see any expression on his face, Qin Xiaoqing was going to lose weight anyway, so he felt normal, but Yang Xue and Wang Shuaikai were a little embarrassed and touched their own abdomen.

After running outside for a day, although I ate and drank a little, it was just a snack after all, so I must not be full.

It's just because of what Huang Dayan said earlier, they didn't say anything more.

Afterwards, everyone left, and only Huo Fuyun and Chen Nian were left in the kitchen.

"Master Huo, what shall we have for dinner?"

Huo Fuyun thought for a while: "Since they want to lose weight, let's cook less. It's definitely impossible not to eat at night. We just bought some pears outside today. I'll make a dessert with this , can nourish the stomach, and let everyone eat something.”

Chen Nian nodded, although he was also very hungry, but after all, he was filming a show now, so he couldn't be special, and the big stars had already spoken, so let's have less.

However, what Master Huo just said about making a dessert with pears is still very curious.

"Master Huo, what do you need me to do?"

"Cut some lemons for me, you don't need too much, about 1/3 is enough."

"okay."

Chen Nian nodded, took the lemons he brought back today, and began to cut them, while Huo Fuyun boiled water over there first, then cut some leaves, and finally put the lemons cut by Chen Nian into the Cook in a pot.

"This dish is considered a dessert, so doing this can increase the freshness and sweetness of the food. Pears are sweet in themselves, adding some lemons can make it a little more sour. It is not only delicious but also appetizing, and it is also more nutritious."

Chen Nian secretly wrote these down in his heart. Master Huo's approach was still very novel, and Chen Nian had never seen it on a boat before.

In this way, the soup kept simmering in the pot, and soon the taste gradually dissipated, and the color of the soup turned into wine red, and Master Huo began to season it again.

"Can I take a look?" Chen Nian asked.

Although Master Huo has always been a nice person, after all, Chen Nian felt that it would be better to ask himself about this kind of thing.

"of course can."

During the period, Yang Xue ran over to have a look, but after smelling the aroma and looking at the color of the pot, she thought that Master Huo was stewing beef.

"smell good!"

"What is this doing?"

Seeing this, Master Huo made a fool of himself: "You will find out later."

While waiting, Master Huo chatted with Chen Nian. At this time, there were no photographers in the kitchen, only a few cameras were left in fixed positions for shooting.

Chen Nian stood beside Huo Fuyun and chatted softly: "Master Huo, I don't think our subsequent filming will go smoothly. Others are fine with it, but I think it's a little difficult to deal with this Manager Huang... ..."

Huo Fuyun nodded in agreement when he heard these words: "Indeed, but this is something that can't be helped. Let's take this as a training exercise."

But as he said that, Huo Fuyun suddenly asked: "Xiao Chen, why did you participate in this variety show, and do you plan to develop in the entertainment industry in the future? I think you are actually quite suitable for this side. You have a good image, a high EQ, and you Can cook, and his girlfriend is also a singer, so it’s the first thing to do when you’re close to the water.”

But Chen Nian shook his head and said with a smile: "That's not true. The entertainment industry is boring. Although I earn a lot, I don't feel happy."

"Then why did you..."

"Because I'm relatively short of money. After all, I'm just an ordinary person, and now that I have a girlfriend, I want to buy a house earlier. The money I earn from participating in variety shows for a month is much more than I can earn from opening a store, so I come to By the way, I will help my girlfriend promote it."

After hearing this, Huo Fuyun smiled: "I didn't expect you to be quite practical."

"Of course, ordinary people have ordinary ways of living."

"That's true."

After chatting for a while, dinner was almost done, and then Chen Nian went out to inform everyone that they were going to have dinner.

Soon Chen Nian came out with a plate and put the dinner prepared that night in front of everyone.

After everyone was seated at the vegetable market, Huo Fuyun smiled and asked: "This is our dinner, is it okay?"

Then there was a very weird atmosphere on the dining table, which made people feel particularly uncomfortable.

First of all, the expression on Huang Daan's face was very subtle.

It seems to be saying with an expression: "That's it?"

Yang Xue and Wang Shuaikai on the side also showed expressions of helplessness and wanting to laugh.

Seeing this scene, Chen Nian couldn't help wanting to curse!

Thinking about losing weight isn't what you said?Yang Xue and Wang Shuaikai are fine, they didn't say anything just now, but what about you Huang Daan and Qin Xiaoqing?

"Is this our dinner?"

"Yes."

"Then the beef stewed in the pot just now..." Yang Xue asked tentatively again.

"This is what it came out of."

In the end, it was Wang Shuaikai who took the initiative to hold up a cup filled with yogurt to invite everyone to clink glasses together, and the scene eased down at this time.

"This dish is called Lime Sour Qin Belgian Pear. You said before that you want to lose weight. This is the best pear we can buy so far. It won't make you fat after eating, and it tastes good."

After that, everyone started to eat, but Chen Nian had already thought of the piss of the TV station that broadcast the program, and would definitely make a fuss about the editing.

But looking at Huo Fuyun's calm expression, Chen Nian still couldn't help sighing.

Probably this is the pressure of the head chef. If it was him, it would not be much better, and he might be forced to take it easy.

Looking at the dessert in front of him, Chen Nian recalled the steps of making this dish just now. First, he added chopped lemon leaves, grapefruit peel and brown sugar to the water for flavor.

Then add lemon slices, star anise, bay leaves, and sugar to taste, so that the taste of the soup is richer.

"Sure enough, it is a combination of Chinese and Western methods."

Now the old age smells the faint smell of the pears, and the spices are very light, but this is the only way to bring out the fragrance of the pears themselves, and not let the spices soak up the sweetness of the pears.

And it was the color of the soup and the opening of the star anise that made Yang Xue mistake it for stewed beef.

It's just a pity that the dish was a little different from what they thought.

The plate arrangement is old-fashioned. Of course, this method of plate arrangement is also Huo Fuyun's idea. First pour some milk into the plate, and then put the pears on top.

Then sprinkle grapefruit on the side.

Drizzle a little honey on top of the pears, and finally grate some crumbs of lemon peel as a garnish and final seasoning.

If you don't regard this dish as a staple food, but as a dessert, it is undoubtedly a very qualified dessert, which is attractive in appearance and unique in taste.

Regardless of the shape, the matching of the plate and the fragrance it exudes, it is estimated that it can be sold for at least 50 yuan if it is aged in the store.

Then it was aged and inserted with a fork, and then cut a piece from the side and put it in the mouth.

The soft and rotten pears are stewed with the smell of various spices, which is very refreshing, just like the spring rain in March.

As expected, the flavors of the various seasonings did not overwhelm the guests, but honestly served as a foil to highlight the sweetness of the pears.

After swallowing, the aroma of fruit remains in the mouth.

Later, Chen Nian felt that it was too troublesome to cut and eat like this, so he directly inserted a whole piece of pear with a fork, and took a bite at the top.

This time, the light and bitter taste of the lemon peel is integrated with the pear itself again, and the sweetness of honey has the upper hand this time, but it does not feel overly sweet after the entrance.

"It's really good, I will do this for my girlfriend after I go back." Chen Nian couldn't help admiring from the bottom of his heart.

But after talking about the girlfriend, everyone suddenly became interested and began to ask curiously.

Chen Nian did not hide this, after all, it has been officially announced on the Internet, and Chen Nian originally had the purpose of helping An Hongdou to promote more, so he also very cooperatively talked about his experience of meeting Hongdou at the beginning.

"You two are so happy." Yang Xue said.

"If you have a chance in the future, you can come and sit with me. Of course, if you have a job, you can introduce her to her." Chen Nian directly started to ask for work for his girlfriend without hesitation.

"must!"

But at this moment, Huang Dayan suddenly said: "Then is there any estrangement between the two of you when you are together? That is, you are a chef by profession, and Hongdou is a singer by profession. Is there usually any separation?" Feel?"

"That's not true. Although I was worried about this at the beginning, after all, isn't falling in love a thing that requires two people to see each other? Although the professions are different and the circles are different, we all have the same hobby. , that is food. Some of her later works are inspired by new dishes in my store, and sometimes I will provide her with some inspiration. We have cooperated before, of course, that is what we still have When we are not together."

Although Chen Nian felt that the question Huang Daan asked was a bit abrupt and impolite, he still answered it seriously.

"Do you still cooperate?"

"Yes, although I don't know much about pop music, I can still provide some ideas on the creative background. Of course, the overall creation is still done by her." Chen Nian replied.

At this moment, seeing that Chen Nian had been being questioned by everyone, Huo Fuyun also mentioned: "When we came here, I actually talked to Master Chen. He still has some accomplishments in art. We As a chef, although you are in the kitchen all day, if you want to go further, you must let yourself learn more, such as calligraphy, painting and so on."

"I know that." Wang Shuaikai also finished eating his own pears at this time, "Cooking also pays attention to the presentation of the dishes. Sometimes a good dish is not only delicious, but also looks like a painting."

But as he talked, Qin Xiaoqing seemed to think of something.

"Hey, I seem to remember that some time ago, did your girlfriend shoot a promotional video for an advertisement? It was a fusion of traditional Kunqu Opera and modern songs.

I didn't think about it for a while, but now I suddenly think that the commercial is still very popular. Even in our circle, many people are saying, because I was born in opera, although I studied Peking opera, but the world's Opera is a family. "

"Yes, that was originally a commercial, but after it was broadcast, it was used as a tourism promotional film by Hangzhou officials, and the name of the song was Wensi Tofu, and the background story of the song was the two of us. We figured it out together."

Chen Nian did not say that the story was completely provided by himself, and then adapted by Hongdou. In that case, he seemed to like to show off, and after the show was broadcast, it might cause some controversy, but if it was said that two people discussed with each other, it would not be so What a hassle.

After talking about this topic, Qin Xiaoqing became interested, after all, this is her major: "I have watched that promotional video several times, I really like that tone, and I remember that besides your girlfriend, There is another person to do the matching.

The tone and voice of that person are very pure and pleasant to hear. Our company wanted to invite him to cooperate with me at the time, but after asking everywhere, we found the director, and we didn’t ask who it was. They kept it secret. That's called one in place! "

"Although I could see that the person next to him was obviously a man, but after I asked a few people in the circle, I couldn't find out who it was."

Hearing this, Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little proud. After thinking about it again and again, he felt that this could also explode. In short, it can add a little heat to the red beans.

It's not a bad thing that the popularity is high, and this will be discovered sooner or later, so it's better to take this great opportunity to say it.

"Actually, that person is me."
