Gourmet food starts from the green leather train chef

Chapter 234 Sea King Chef Qin

Su Rou didn't get an answer, because that 'fool' actually asked her when she would return to X164 at such a time!

It's really pissing off, isn't it just thinking about that girl Chen Yan?Where is Miss Ben worse than Chen Yan?
And no matter whether it is public or private, Su Rou will not let Zhouzhou go and leave; Yongliang Province has encountered a sandstorm that has never happened in a century, and it will take at least five days to clear the railway ahead. Do you want to go back and drink sand at this time?
Zhou Zhou, you are a senior reviewer of 'Three Meals a Day', your annual salary of one million is not for nothing, right?This time I finally left X164, of course I have to make full use of this time.

Thinking of this, Su Rou lowered her head and giggled with a blushing face. The laugh made Zhou Zhou feel a little hairy, "Mr. Su, is there still something to do with three meals a day?" '

"Of course, Michelin has been in business for many years, but it's not easy to deal with.

Yuan Xun has only joined Michelin, and he doesn't have much derogatory hatred for our "three meals a day", but some chefs are different. "

Su Rou looked at Zhou Zhou with twinkling eyes: "It's so ugly to be ranked fourteen in the Qinxing weapon spectrum, don't you want to be promoted?"

"Promoted for what?" Zhou Zhou was a little puzzled.

"King of the sea, Qin Jian, is a seafood cooking master who ranks 41th in Qinxing Weapons. He is only [-] years old this year. He not only ranks in Qinxing Weapons, but also won the title of Chinese National Cooking Master. He also won the French Green Belt Medal and Green Crown Award."

Just as Su Rou was talking, Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan gave a cold snort and took the words: "So it's him!
Hmph, this guy is proficient in Chinese and Western food, but he has forgotten his origin. He opened a Michelin five-star western restaurant by the West Lake, and he often said that Western food is the most nutritious, healthy and scientific. There are all kinds of disadvantages, and some dishes even eat insects and snakes, which is not civilized enough!

What the hell, it's just a yellow skin and a white heart! "

"What the old man said is true. After the establishment of the 'three meals a day', he often attacked us in the major media, and said that our chefs are always welcome to challenge, but if they lose, they must obediently admit that the three meals a day are Children play house! Oh, it’s so pissing off!”

As Su Rou spoke, her cheeks puffed up, and her pink face turned red and white.

"Anyway, we still have time, so let's go."

Perhaps Su Rou's words can still be doubted, the old man will definitely not lie; Zhou Zhou frowned slightly, feeling disgusted towards this Chef Qin Jianqin.

"Okay, okay, let's go together, my old Wu can eat Master Zhou's god-level food again!"

Wu Jiutong was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so it would be better for Zhou Zhou to fight with others every day.
-
One water and one temple in Hangzhou occupy the aura of the southeast, the water refers to the West Lake, and the temple refers to Lingyin.

Qin Jian's French restaurant is built on the water street south of West Lake, and it is the only authentic French restaurant in Hangzhou.

There is no water on the water street, but the food prices here are skyrocketing. Two-star facilities and hardware dare to give you four or five-star prices, let alone Qin Jian’s Michelin five-star restaurant. Pharaoh shed tears for one dish, Evergrande was broken for two, and Papa Ma would regret it for three.
Today is a good day, at least for Qin Jian.

'Three meals a day' finally confronted head-on?And it's the chef from Zhouzhou who has become popular recently, which is really great. The boy surnamed Zhou has been ranked at the top of the list of Qinxing weapons in a short period of time. He really wants to see where it is Holy; not to mention being able to hit the "three meals a day" by the way. For Qin Jian, the rise of three meals a day will directly affect his vital interests.

Who hasn't heard of the French chef? He became a first-class chef in Huaxia at the age of 21, and the head chef of a three-star Michelin restaurant at the age of 22. Before his 23rd birthday, he won the Green Belt Medal. Why did the boy in charge of the five-star Michelin Zhouzhou rise faster than him?

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Zhou, Su Rou and his party arrived at Qin Jian's restaurant. This King of the Sea was very particular about etiquette, and had already brought the service staff and the kitchen team to greet him in front of the door.

After inviting Zhou Zhou and others into the restaurant and giving them their seats, Qin Jian did not sit down, but stood in front of Zhou Zhou and asked politely.

"Master Zhou, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Su, I want to use shrimp as the theme today. Do you have any comments?
If Master Zhou is not good at cooking shrimp, he can also choose other ingredients. I have all kinds of fresh seafood here. "

The young people in front of him have risen too fast, and Cheng Lin, Huai Anren, He Wenjie, Yuan Ji and other masters on the Qinxing weapon spectrum have all been defeated by this person one after another. Although Qin Jian is arrogant, he dare not really underestimate Zhou Zhou. It seems generous, but the content of the competition is set in the seafood category.

"Hehe, you are indeed the king of the sea who ranks [-]th in the list of diligent weapons."

Zhou Zhou glanced at Qin Jian with a smile and nodded, "I can eat shrimp."

"That would be great. Of course you have to drink white wine when you eat fish and shrimp, so please come and choose a bar to accompany your meal."

Qin Jian snapped his fingers smartly, and immediately a well-dressed waiter brought three bottles of white wine to Zhou Zhou, and said softly, "Sir, please choose a bottle of wine to accompany your meal today."

Zhou Zhou glanced at the three bottles of wine, and found that they were all bottled with screw stoppers, but there was no trademark on the bottles, and there was no information for judging the place of origin and the grade of the wine.

Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan and Wu Jiutong frowned slightly, and looked at each other. The surname Qin wants to touch Zhouzhou's bottom with wine first?

This is a little troublesome. They haven't seen Zhou Zhou drink wine since they joined X164, and wine tasting is not a compulsory course for chefs; Qin Jian came here prepared, and wants to give Zhou Zhou a big blow?
Qin Jian smiled lightly, and spoke with a nondescript Parisian accent: "My friend, I think I need to explain to you."

"Oh, Chef Qin please tell me"

Zhou Zhou nodded, his face very calm.

Regarding Qin Jian's behavior, no matter how ignorant Zhou Zhou was, he could see the problem.Taking out three bottles of white wine without a trademark, it was obvious to test his thoughts, and this question was carefully arranged by Qin Jian, so the difficulty can be imagined.

We really don't know much about wine, but we can't help that we have cheats, I can't think of it.
"My friend, don't think I'm trying to embarrass you.

As you know, I still have a little reputation in the French catering industry, so the owners of some famous wineries and I have some friendship.

Hehe, these three bottles of white wine are not for sale as a personal gift from them.

Since it is not for sale, of course there will be no trademark. If this causes you to misunderstand, it is really my fault. "

Qin Jian with a smirk on his face was like a fox preparing to deceive a puppet: "But it's okay, if Master Zhou, you are not good at picking white wine, let me make the decision for you?"

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Zhou quietly.

The most important step in eating French food is to choose the wine to accompany the meal. If it is said that in the old China, a good waiter was used to distinguish whether the guests were "diners" who knew how to eat or "floaters" who were stupid and rich. A polite waiter will distinguish guests during the selection of wine.

When you meet a nouveau riche who doesn’t understand anything, the polite restaurant waiters will definitely smile at you like a gentleman, and at the same time cheat you to death.

Qin Jian doesn't think that a cooking school intern from a petty citizen's family has the ability to choose a suitable bottle of white wine. He was a senior judge of Three Meals a Day, joined the variety show of Green Pear Channel, and made a lot of money, so he was just a nouveau riche.Want to choose the right wine?impossible!
You know, choosing white wine is even more difficult than choosing red wine. Most red wine can be judged by its age, but white wine is more particular. If you blindly choose the year, you will make a big joke.

Not to mention that there is not even a trademark on the bottle. Even those who have studied French wine to a certain extent, it is difficult to judge whether it is good or not based on the taste alone. This is the job of a professional sommelier.

If it weren't for his natural sharp tongue, even Qin Jian wouldn't dare to pick out a more suitable bottle of wine without a trademark; so if Zhou Zhou is willing to 'admit defeat', he will definitely eliminate the embarrassment in a very gentlemanly manner. Then help Zhou Zhou 'choose' a suitable bottle of wine, of course, he will be very happy if he has a little upper hand.
"Oh, I don't like letting other people make decisions for me, so I'll do it myself."

Zhou Zhou pointed to the bottle of wine in the middle with a smile and said, "Let's try this bottle first."

The waiter's eyes swept over Zhou Zhou lightly, and he showed a professional smile and said, "Sir, do you need to sober up first?"

Qin Jian glanced at the waiter, and frowned imperceptibly.

What an asshole!
He and Zhou Zhou are like the world's five unique tricks. When the fight is fierce, all kinds of insidious tricks can emerge one after another, but this is a matter between the five uniques. When will it be the turn of the four ghosts of the Yellow River to show off?

Zhou Zhou took a deep look at the waiter, pointed to the spiral cork and said, "As a professional waiter in a French restaurant, you should know better than me that most of the white wines that use this cork do not need to be decanted. yes, right?
So your question just now makes me suspect that you are not professional enough. "

Metal screw corks are different from oak corks. They are usually used on some wines with an aging life of no more than five years. Often these wines have a characteristic, that is, they will be drunk when they are 'young' to have the best quality. good taste.

Whether it is red wine or white wine, this kind of cork is used, especially white wine is the most widely used.

Compared with the oak cork, the airtightness of the metal screw-shaped cork is poorer, so this kind of wine often has undergone a process of "self-decoration" during the storage process, and it can be poured out to drink directly without sobering up .

For people who often go to western restaurants, this is actually just a matter of common sense. This waiter is actually a little deceiving.

Of course he knew that this was the chef's 'guest'. It was only when he saw the chef making things difficult for Zhou Zhou that he dared to flatter Qin Jian. A real connoisseur.

The waiter blushed when he was told, and was speechless for a while.Qin Jian gave him a hard look: "Pour the wine quickly!

Hehe, Master Zhou, don’t be surprised, he is actually a temporary worker.”

"Oh, since it's a temporary worker, it can still be forgiven."

Zhou Zhou took the white wine from the waiter, took a sip, nodded slightly and said, "Master Qin is really extraordinary, never thought that even a top winery like Mouton would give you something not for sale?"

Qin Jian's complexion changed slightly, and he laughed dryly: "Thank you, thank you."

"Chateau Mouton in Bordeaux has a long history and first-class quality, there is no doubt about these.

But if I had to choose, I would not choose a white wine from Mouton.”

Zhou Zhou smiled and said, "It's actually determined by the grape varieties used to make wine.

Bordeaux's Médoc region has the world's top 'Cabernet Sauvignon', coupled with Mouton's brewing process, will have top-quality red wine.There is no doubt about one thing, just like Lafite, Mouton is the nobleman among red wines.

It's a pity that the white wines produced by 'Semillon', 'Sauvignon Blanc' and 'Muscadet' produced in Medoc are not satisfactory. There will be some discounts.

Moreover, Mouton wine is notoriously lacking in stability, sometimes it will surprise people, and sometimes it will be mediocre; in addition, what it is best at is always brewing red wine, so if I had to choose, I would decisively eliminate these wines. a bottle. "

Zhou Zhou pointed to the bottle of white wine in the middle.

"Take it away."

Qin Jian took a long breath and asked with itchy teeth: "Don't tell me that the chef school is so extravagant that students practice tasting top French wines?"

"Well, I didn't learn it in school."

Zhou Zhou's tone was flat, he just didn't tell you why I judged wine, because you wouldn't believe me if I told you.

"Then where did you learn these things?" Qin Jian was extremely curious.

Grandpa Zhang Zhouxuan and Su Rou also looked at Zhou Zhou, yes, where did you learn it?
"Hehe, it's a secret."

"."

"."

Qin Jian scolded his mother secretly in his heart, but his face was still calm: "My friend, I don't know how you will choose the remaining two bottles of wine?"

"Then let's start with the bottle on the left."

Zhou Zhou nodded to the waiter.

"Master Zhou, please."

The waiter changed his previous contempt for Zhou Zhou, opened the bottle of wine carefully, and handed the wine glass to Zhou Zhou with both hands very respectfully.

Taking the wine glass, Zhou Zhou took a sip, and after a long silence, he glanced at Qin Jian with a half-smile, and said to the waiter, "Please open the bottle on the right, too."

"Okay Master Zhou, please taste it."

After taking the wine glass handed over by the waiter again, Zhou Zhou tasted it first, hesitated slightly, and asked, "Is there any purified water?"

"Of course sir."

The waiter brought the water quickly, Zhou Zhou took the pure water and rinsed his mouth, picked up the wine glass again to taste, and after a few seconds of silence, he said: "Master Qin really has a wide range of contacts, from Bordeaux to Burgundy, could it be that the French Are all winery owners your friends?
Yes, the best white wines I think come from Burgundy.

This is still determined by the grape variety used to make wine, perhaps from the moment 'Chardonnay' appeared on the earth, it was doomed to be the best raw material for making white wine."

Zhou Zhou said calmly: "What made me embarrassed just now is that these two bottles of white wine are both Burgundy's premium GRAND CRU quality white wine.

It is indeed difficult to choose one of them as today's table wine.

Master Qin is embarrassing me."

"This guy just gave birth to a dog's tongue! It's not easy!"

Qin Jian was secretly surprised, looked at Zhou Zhou solemnly and said, "It's more like a test than a difficulty.

Master Zhou, don't take offense, after all, not everyone is qualified to let me cook for him! "

"clear."

Zhou Zhou rolled the crystal wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile, "Then I will trouble Master Qin."
