The genius villain's mother is going crazy in the kid's variety show by relying on food

Chapter 327: Swallow Wing Feast

Conquering the kitchen of the Qing family's old house starts with a pot of soup——

Almost all traditional Chinese dishes require the use of broth, especially delicacies such as shark fin.

The authentic Tan family cuisine's broth-making method requires the use of whole chickens, whole ducks, scallops, ham, etc., which are simmered over low heat for two full days until the bones of the chicken and duck are melted and integrated into the broth, and then sieved for later use.

Although Lao Zhou put a lot of effort into making the soup himself, it was not as much as this.

So, Nanzhi thought about the taste he had just tasted, added a few ingredients, and then turned to high heat to cook.

The usually calm Old Zhou finally spoke up to stop it:

"When cooking soup, you need to heat it quickly first and then slowly. This pot of soup has been simmering for a long time. If you suddenly increase the heat like this, it will only wash out the impurities in the ingredients."

Nanzhi replied calmly:

"I know it well."

Then go get the ingredients.

After Lao Zhou and several other young chefs exchanged glances, they finally calmed down.

They originally thought that this delicate young lady just came to the kitchen to play around and satisfy her desire, but she didn't really want to get started.

However, it now seems that they thought it was too simple.

Who knows the hobbies of rich people?

Forget it. After all, this is someone else's home and they use someone else's ingredients. As employees, they can only cooperate. How dare they complain that their labor results are not respected...

When Nanzhi came back with the ingredients, she saw that the chefs led by Lao Zhou were already working with their heads down. They seemed quite cooperative and had no intention of confronting her.

She was a little surprised at first, but soon figured out the reason.

But Nanzhi didn't say much, just worked silently and didn't ask other chefs for help.

With Nanzhi's strength, it is more than enough to deal with this matter.

However, the two young girls among the assistant chefs couldn't help but come over and ask softly:

"Can I help you with anything?"

Nanzhi glanced at her.

Women are rare in the kitchen because they do not have an innate advantage in terms of physical strength.

But there is a female chef in the kitchen of this small old house of the Qing family. Her surname is Song and everyone calls her Xiao Song.

Xiao Song looked to be no more than 20 years old, and seemed to be an apprentice taught by Lao Zhou personally, which made Nanzhi a little curious.

She then ordered:

"Bring me some warm water."

Xiao Song nodded and fetched warm water:

“Is this shark fin?”

"Ah."

The variety of ingredients displayed by Nanzhi is so great that it is almost dizzying to look at.

Because these ingredients are so precious, from shark fins, bird's nests to abalone and sea cucumbers, they are all top-notch ingredients.

For example, the shark fin is made from the Philippines, and the bird's nest is made from Siamese bird's nest. These were tributes in ancient times...

In comparison, the remaining ingredients such as hen, live duck, mandarin fish and white fungus are quite mediocre.

Xiao Song was shocked.

Because the Qing family's daily meals are not like what outsiders think, with rich fish, meat, and delicacies from land and sea all day long.

On the contrary, because Qingshan and Xiao Qingfen are already old, the doctor recommends a light diet, so their three meals a day are basically based on health preservation, and they eat light porridge and side dishes.

Therefore, Xiao Song did not have many opportunities to come into contact with precious ingredients in the Qing family's kitchen.

Her eyes widened as she looked at the shark fins and bird's nests.

Nanzhi saw it and deliberately asked:

"Do you know what I'm going to do?"

Xiao Song pondered and finally realized:

"Shark fin, bird's nest and soup stock... could it be a Tan family dish?"

Nanzhi smiled and was about to nod.

Finally, a solemn voice interrupted: "It's not just Tan's cuisine, to be precise, it's a bird's nest and shark's fin banquet."

The person who spoke was Lao Zhou, and his expression had changed greatly from just now.

He was smiling just now, but in fact he was not looking at anyone and was very arrogant.

But now, he stopped smiling, but looked at Nanzhi extremely seriously, full of curiosity and speculation.

"The fourth young lady is a professional chef?"

"Well, it is."

Nanzhi thought, it seems that her fame is not high enough.

As he spoke, his hands never stopped moving, soaking the ingredients one by one with extremely skillful techniques.

Soaking is one of the most important steps in processing ingredients such as shark fin and bird's nest. The quality of the soaking technique can directly determine the taste of the final product.

Nanzhi is very good at this.

Especially during the time when she was in the ancient palace, the emperor would have his own ideas about food, so she had to be prepared at all times, and even developed a unique trick to quickly soak food without affecting the taste and nutritional value.

Otherwise, if you want to enjoy the most perfect taste of the bird's nest and shark fin banquet in Tan's cuisine, you have to start preparing at least 7 days in advance.

Now, it can be done in one afternoon.

As Nanzhi moved, Lao Zhou's expression became more and more serious.

"You... specialize in Tan's cuisine?"

Nanzhi still had time to answer:
“I know a little bit of every cuisine.”

A little bit?

I'm afraid it's just a few billion!
Lao Zhou has seen the best chefs in the world, including those who are on the celebrity chef list. He once worked for them and has seen how high the mountains are.

The more knowledgeable you are, the more you can understand the uniqueness of Nanzhi's technique.

Lao Zhou tried hard to look away:

"Fourth Miss, you should clear out the people in the kitchen to prevent us from stealing your knowledge."

This sentence also attracted the attention of other chefs.

The southern branch does not even raise its head:

"No need to hide, you can learn whatever you can."

"I can too?"

Lao Zhou blurted out, with great surprise in his eyes.

Nanzhi slowly raised his eyes and looked at the other person:
"of course."

Only then did Lao Zhou feel embarrassed.

However, this unique method of soaking hair still attracted him, and he shamelessly went over to help.

"Let me help."

Old Zhou cleared his throat and naturally took over the position of his apprentice Xiao Song.

Xiao Song: ???
Nanzhi smiled and asked Xiaosong to come to her other side:

"Deal with the chickens and ducks."

Xiao Song is an honest man. After Nanzhi made the arrangements, he started working efficiently without any hesitation.

Nanzhi saw it, with a hint of admiration, then turned and went to the pot.

She lifted the lid of the pot and took a look. When she felt it was about done, she adjusted the heat again.

Old Zhou followed her closely:

"Can this soup stock really be used? I'm afraid it would be better to make a new pot..."

He was proud but not conceited, and he knew very well that his pot of stock was more than enough to make some ordinary high-end dishes. However, if he wanted to use shark fins of the grade of yellowtail shark in a bird's nest banquet, even he felt so heartbroken that he bled at the thought of it, and felt that it was a waste of ingredients.

Unfortunately, Nanzhi replied:
"We have a family dinner tonight, and it's too late to make a last-minute move."

Old Zhou wanted to say something but stopped, and finally let out a sigh.

He didn't know yet that the real shock was waiting for him.

Now, Lao Zhou just thinks that Nanzhi is a good chef.

Shark fin is mainly composed of collagen. Novels are just novels, and it is not recommended to eat them in real life!
