Chapter 745 Cooking skills recorded in history

The whole morning was full of tension and busyness. The customers in the Yipin store came and went in a hurry. It was very interesting whether they were eating or watching the excitement.

What makes the customers envious the most is that the two men who thought they would work in the store for three days can now be seen serving dishes, washing dishes, and working hard to fulfill their duties as waiters in the store.

But I didn't expect that their work would be so easy, which made many people envious. Why didn't they compete with Boss Chu at the beginning?
This loser actually got such good treatment. Didn’t you see that every time Boss Chu prepared a dish, he would immediately give it to them to taste?
It simply makes people envious, jealous, and hateful.
The newly made molecular ice cream looked like a white ball on the outside, but in fact it contained a lot of fillings, and it was stuffed in by the two of them in one bite.

"Hmph~! What a waste of natural resources!"

"Lucky shit!"

"It tastes like nothing!"

Seeing the two of them enjoying the food so "unscrupulously", how could they not make the guests in the store make abnormal noises?
"Slow down, slow down, put on your gloves!"

When making ice cream, after adjusting all the ingredients, you usually put it directly into the refrigerator for freezing. After 2 hours, the ice cream will naturally take shape.

However, there is a disadvantage of freezing in the refrigerator or freezer, that is, the ice crystals condense very slowly, which greatly damages the molecules in the ingredients, which not only affects the taste, but also has a great impact on the taste.

If you use liquid nitrogen, it must be the best choice, because the temperature of liquid nitrogen is very low, reaching minus 196°C, and it can quickly form ice cream.

Not only is the speed very fast, but the ice cream will continue to give off a cloudy appearance, which is a high-end artistic enjoyment.

"I know, I know, am I wearing it?"

Guo Kui saw that Chu Yunfeng and Hu Yue were operating very interestingly, so he was ready to try it himself.

The temperature of this liquid nitrogen is very low, if it touches the skin, it will cause frostbite, and the consequences are very serious, so you must not only wear gloves when operating, but also ...
"I'll go, don't worry, you have to put on the blindfold too."

Seeing that Guo Kui had just put on his gloves, he couldn't wait to pick up the spoon and was about to scoop liquid nitrogen into the bucket. Hu Yue quickly stopped him. It would be very scary if the liquid nitrogen accidentally splashed into the eyes.

"Hazy, I almost forgot. Is it okay now?"

Guo Kui was now fully armed, but seeing his frizzy look, Hu Yue really wanted to kick him in the butt.

"Slow down a little, please slow down.

stir, stir
I'm going, please be gentle, it's going to spill."

Hu Yue saw Guo Kui's clumsy look and regretted letting him experience it. It seemed that this guy was destined to be a white criminal.

"Haha, it's taking shape, it's taking shape, look, look, it's turned into ice cream, it's so fast!"

Before the liquid nitrogen went down, the basin was still liquid. With the injection of liquid nitrogen and a few gentle stirrings, the liquid in the basin immediately condensed.

Guo Kui was as happy as a child. Seeing such a magical scene, he screamed with excitement.

"Alas~! The child is still young and doesn't have much knowledge. Don't mind me!"

Seeing Guo Kui's exaggerated expression, Hu Yue said helplessly to the guests watching, making everyone burst into laughter.

But there were two people who could no longer laugh. Instead, they had a look of fear on their faces.

This is of course Tao Kailun and Zhou Tianjun!
From the time Chu Yunfeng opened the store until almost noon, I have been eating non-stop this morning, and then constantly feeding back my experience to Chu Yunfeng.

Basically, every time a dish is served, these two people are definitely the first ones to taste it.

From exquisite traditional Sichuan cuisine to various molecular cuisines, and then to ice cream, the two of them thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Dazan today is not here to suffer, but to enjoy happiness. Where can you have such a good job that allows you to eat and drink for free?

Although there is no salary, is it important?

Is this a high-end dish?

And all of them are made with the utmost care by the chef. Although many of them are the first time the chef tries to make them, they are all of the highest quality in terms of taste and style.

Didn't you notice that there is a foreigner next to you who has been recording these exquisite delicacies?

He was so greedy that he couldn't eat what he wanted, and he asked himself questions about these dishes from time to time.

Tao Karen made a rough estimate. If he had eaten so many exquisite dishes this morning, if he had eaten them in other restaurants, the price would have been at least six figures.

So what kind of salary is needed?

It was really enjoyable at first, but as time went by, the two gradually discovered that there were side effects after eating too much.

That means my stomach can't hold it anymore
Although it's very delicious, there's nothing you can do about it happening like you can't eat it anymore?
This guy's name is Guo Kui. I'm afraid he wasn't named Guo Jing before, right?

Why are you so tough?
Boss Chu and Hu Yue only make two or three servings of ice cream with different flavors each time. It's a good idea for you to just make a basin of it.

How can I eat when my stomach is already 9% full?

What if Boss Chu really lets him eat it? If he doesn't eat it, will he be kicked out and he won't be allowed to taste the dishes he will be testing later? What then?
At this time, Tao Kailun and Zhou Tianjun had already forgotten about losing the bet before, and they cooperated wholeheartedly with Chu Yunfeng in tasting the dishes.

Not to mention driving them away, even if they were dragged, they probably wouldn't be able to drag them out.

But now that they saw this tub of ice cream, the two looked at each other and started to have trouble.

Is this eating, eating, or eating?
"Let's give it to everyone to try. This guy has made so much. How can the two of them finish it? Moreover, this liquid nitrogen quick-frozen ice cream needs to be eaten immediately, otherwise it will not taste good."

When Chu Yunfeng saw that the two of them were in trouble, he also knew that after tasting so many dishes this morning, he would definitely not be able to eat anymore. Although each dish was not large in quantity, it could not hold up to the amount.

"Wow, thank you Boss Chu, this is great."

"Oh my God, this is so lucky. This is a real benefit."

"Well done, Master Guo. I'll do more soon."

The customers in the store cheered instantly, and everyone really wanted to taste the taste of this ice cream. It was definitely not ordinary, and it was definitely much better than the ones on the market.

Just by looking at the ingredients they use, you can tell that milk, honey, juice, eggs, etc. are all of high quality. Coupled with their extraordinary cooking skills, they are definitely extraordinary.

After hearing these words, Shuangjianbi's nervous mood instantly eased. After taking a long breath, Tao Kailun said, "Tianjun and I will go out to eat and we will come back later."

"Okay, don't be so anxious, it's okay to go back to sleep at noon, come back in the afternoon."

Knowing that the two of them really couldn't eat anymore, Chu Yunfeng didn't force it. He would continue the experiment in the afternoon, but he couldn't let the two of them "play" bad, otherwise the plan would be difficult to proceed.

"Great, thank you, Boss Chu. Let's see you in the afternoon."

The two of them thanked Chu Yunfeng very gratefully, and then ran away quickly. They seemed to be really supported.
"Oh my god, this ice cream is so delicious. I have never tasted such delicate ice cream before. It is simply amazing."

The little beauty who got it first took a small taste and immediately praised it loudly.

Hu Yue took out many small boxes from the cupboard and handed them to Guo Kui one by one. Guo Kui picked up the spoon and dug it directly into the box, then put a small spoon on it and handed it to everyone.

"It's really delicious. The milk taste is not only very rich, but it melts on the tip of the tongue as soon as you sip it. This delicate feeling is unparalleled."

"Not only does it have a rich milky aroma, but it also has a full fruity taste. It's not like the expensive ice creams you buy outside now. There's no milky taste in your mouth after eating, and the quality is getting worse and worse."

"It's just, it's right, and the texture is very rough. Sometimes you even get ice crystals. The taste is like heaven and earth."

"Boss Chu, why is this ice cream made with liquid nitrogen so delicious? Can you tell us about it?"

The bowl of ice cream made by Guo Kui was indeed enough. Even the customers lining up outside were given a small box. After tasting it, many people asked the same question, why is it so delicious?

Chu Yunfeng had already checked the relevant information before making it, so he naturally knew the special characteristics of this liquid nitrogen, and he also tasted the difference between refrigerator freezing and liquid nitrogen quick freezing.

Since everyone wanted to know, I simply said: "Actually, there are three main ingredients in this ice cream, which are ice crystals, bubbles and milk fat.

For ice cream, the smaller the molecular weight of this structure, the more stable its structure and the better the taste.

In the traditional way, the freezing speed of the refrigerator is too slow, so the formation of ice crystals is a very slow process. The ice crystals condensed are not only very large, but also many molecular structures are destroyed, and the natural flavor and taste are not as good as before. Influence.

But liquid nitrogen quick freezing is different, because it freezes extremely quickly and can instantly condense structures such as ice crystals and fat into a size of only a few nanometers.

The smaller the molecular weight of the structure, the more stable the structure, the less cells are damaged, and the more natural flavor is preserved.

The smaller the ice crystals, the more delicate the texture will be. Of course, it tastes very milky, and the texture is also very good. "

Chu Yunfeng succinctly explained the essence of molecular cuisine, and also made it easy for everyone to understand the differences and gaps between the two methods.

Everyone clapped and praised, falling in love with the ice cream more and more. Unfortunately, the basin in front of Guo Kui was already empty.

"Oops, I forgot to save some so I can taste it myself."

Only then did Guo Kui react, which made both Chu Yunfeng and Hu Yue laugh. They both pushed him with their elbows, which also made the customers in the store laugh.

After the two swordsmen left, Chu Yunfeng stopped making molecular cuisine, but mainly made some soups and noodles.

Before making molecular cuisine today, Chu Yunfeng had already upgraded his comprehensive skills to the technician level, so his skills in temperature control, heat, thickening, cooking aesthetics, nutrition, etc. had been greatly improved.

Restoring the kimchi at Auntie's Feast was rewarded with 500 million experience points, and it cost 2000 million to upgrade the skills. Now there are only 323 million experience points left.

Right now, the only thing missing is the skill level and physical fitness, which are still high-level. Once these two items are upgraded, he will be a technician-level chef.

The improvement of comprehensive skills gave Chu Yunfeng a deeper understanding of the combination and presentation of each dish, so as the study of dishes continued, Guo Kui and Hu Yue both discovered that Chu Yunfeng's cooking skills seemed to have improved. .

again.
"Shall we just go back to the hotel and rest?"

When they reached the fork in the road, Zhou Tianjun asked.

"This place is quite close to Kuanzhai Alley. Let's walk more and take a look. We've eaten too much. Let's take a walk to eat."

Tao Kailun touched his bulging belly and sighed helplessly.

"It's true that I'm a little bloated from eating, but I feel very strange. Why is Boss Chu so kind to us? Not only does he not let us work, but he also gives us so many delicious foods?"

Zhou Tianjun was a little confused and felt as if he was dreaming. When did he get such a good treatment after losing a bet?

"Oh~! It's been all morning, don't you understand?
Who said we have no more work to do?

Haven't you been working for Boss Chu in the store all morning? "

Tao Kailun looked at his good friend with helpless eyes and lamented that this guy was really too naive. If he were sold, he would probably be counting money for others.

"Is treating us to food a part-time job? I wish I could do this kind of job every day, but unfortunately I can't take videos. If I could, I'd rather work in his shop every day."

Zhou Tianjun thought about the delicacies he had eaten this morning, such as fried beef with morels, glutinous rice balls stuffed with osmanthus wine, shrimp and wild mushroom dumplings, roasted peppers and winter bamboo shoots, rice pepper fungus, etc., everything was so exquisite and delicious Son.

And I also tasted more than a dozen different types of molecular cuisine. I was dazzled by the shapes, and I couldn't imagine that they were made under my nose.

A bright peach, gently cracked open with a spoon, reveals a secret inside.

The petals of the lotus leaf, you thought they were real petals for decoration. I picked them up with chopsticks and prepared to throw them away. Then I realized that they were made from molecular cuisine and were not made from real ones. They tasted crunchy, sweet and sour.

Not to mention egg shells, strawberries, branches, leaves, etc., as long as they are on the dinner plate, they are all edible, and they are also very delicious.

I have eaten at many high-end restaurants before, but none of them can serve such a wide variety of dishes and taste so good. This is something I have to admire.

"You said you didn't work part-time, so have you given feedback to Boss Chu about your experience after eating?"

"It's feedback. He nods every time, and from time to time he praises us for our hard work. Is there any problem?"

"Then every time he gets feedback, does he make a new one and continue letting us experience it?"

"Yes, but I found that the taste and texture of the dishes I made the second time seemed to be much improved compared to the first time.
I'll go, what do you mean?

No way? "

"You finally understand? This boss Chu is simply a genius in cooking. I'm convinced.

He kept us here to lend our skills to help him improve the quality of molecular gastronomy, because only we can accurately taste its most subtle things.

Boss Chu actually doesn't want to consume too much of the aroma of the ingredients. If the original ingredients are too molecular, the original essence will be lost.

Therefore, if we want to find a balance between aroma and taste, we need to accurately describe the sources and spices of the ingredients in molecular cuisine.

If it is easy to taste, then the ultimate effect of Boss Chu will not be achieved. Only when you can taste it just now, but the original taste is just a foil, is the most perfect state.

No chef can accurately grasp such a balance. Most of them pursue the appearance of the dishes and ignore the original taste of the ingredients.

So his cooking skills are simply terrifying, and such cooking skills are simply unheard of.

Cherish it, brother!

For the two of us to be lucky enough to participate and witness such a culinary miracle is simply something that can be recorded in history. This is definitely the highest level attempt in the development of molecular gastronomy so far. "

Tao Kailun patted Zhou Tianjun on the shoulder and said "sincerely"
