Chef Mad Queen

Chapter 281 Active Preparation
"Chef Feng Ling, this challenge is of great importance. Although we have great confidence in your cooking skills, Chef Luo Ling is also a well-known figure in the Ling Chef Union, so don't underestimate it!" Cai Lingche said worriedly, " I wonder if you have a countermeasure?"

Feng Qian pondered for a while, and said: "If a dish wants to be perfect, it must be perfect in every detail! The next thing we have to do is to choose the best ingredients, so that every ingredient is impeccable ..."

Chef Cai Ling nodded and agreed deeply: "The main ingredients for making Mapo Tofu are tofu, minced meat, chili, pepper, etc. If it is served with fermented soy beans and bean paste, the taste will be even more delicious."

Chef He Ling continued: "Chef Zhao Ling brews condiments such as tempeh and bean paste by himself. The tempeh and bean paste he brews are hundreds of times better than those on the market!"

Zhao Lingchu smiled modestly, and said: "The peppers and Chinese prickly ash cultivated by He Lingchu are also top-notch. According to the degree of spiciness and numbness, peppers can be divided into twelve grades, and Chinese prickly ash can be divided into six grades. Grade, each grade of chili and Sichuan peppercorns, He Lingchef has personally cultivated, which kind of spicy peppers and which kind of numbness of peppercorns you want, he can accurately pick out for you!"

Listening to what the two said, Feng Qian nodded silently. It seems that the Lingchu Department is still Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Their cooking skills may not be the best, but they always have their own good side.

Cai Lingchef went on to say: "I think you can use Fenglingchu's spirit pork for minced meat. The most important thing now is to finalize the most important ingredient—tofu!"

Chef He said: "Chef Cai Lingchu is the one who is best at making tofu!"

Cai Lingchef waved his hands modestly: "Where is that, in front of Feng Lingchu, I dare not claim to be the best at it, but I do it often, and I am only familiar with it!"

"Can I see the tofu made by Chef Cai Ling?" Feng Qian said.

"Of course, this way please—" Under Cai Lingchu's guidance, Feng Qian followed him to the kitchen of the Lingchu Department. The students were still full of enthusiasm and refused to disperse, and followed them all the way.

Because it is the Department of Spiritual Cooking, which mainly focuses on cooking, the kitchen of the Department of Spiritual Kitchen is different from kitchens in other places. Its area is very large. There are dozens of stoves in one kitchen, which can allow dozens of students to cook at the same time. There are ten stoves in a row, a total of five rows. Looking at it at a glance, it is very spectacular!
This is the biggest kitchen Feng Qian has ever seen in her life!

"Chef Fengling, please follow me!"

The kitchen and the storage room are connected by a long and narrow corridor. Under the guidance of Cai Lingchu, Feng Qian walked through the corridor and entered the storage room. Because the corridor is extremely narrow, only Fengqian, Cai Lingchu, He Lingchu and The four of Zhao Lingchu passed by, while the other students were all stopped outside the corridor and watched from a distance.

Tang Chenyu looked up, it was also the first time he came to the kitchen and storage room of the Lingchu Department, and he was full of curiosity about it.

At this time, people around rushed over, surrounded him, and asked him excitedly one by one.

"Junior Brother Tang, you can do it, you are actually Teacher Feng's apprentice?"

"When did you become a teacher? How much have you learned?"

"Come, come, show us a hand!"

Tang Chenyu smiled wryly, and spread his hands: "Although I have worshiped as a teacher, I still learn everything."

"Who are you lying to? You have such a powerful master, how could you not learn anything?"

"Are you trying to hide it on purpose?"

"Junior Brother Tang, this is not kind!"

Tang Chenyu couldn't laugh or cry: "I really didn't learn! I just recognized my master yesterday, I really won't lie to you!"

"Cut!" It's a pity that no one believed him at all.

In the storage room, Chef Cai Ling took out a drawer of tofu that he made himself, and introduced to Feng Qian: "Chef Feng Ling, this is the soy milk I ground last night, and the tofu that was molded this morning, take a look, can you Useful?"

Feng Qian took a closer look and found that what he made was northern tofu made of brine, commonly known as old tofu. It was very hard, elastic and tough. It would be very chewy when used for cooking, but its appearance was rough. The color is yellow, not suitable for making mapo tofu!

In Feng Qian's impression, the best mapo tofu should be made of southern tofu made of gypsum. It is bright white in color, smooth and tender, and full of moisture. It melts in the mouth with one bite!
She still remembers the delicious taste deeply!
Therefore, her mapo tofu must be made with southern tofu!
"No, this tofu is too old, it must not be used!"

Chef Cai Ling was taken aback: "Isn't all tofu like this? Tofu made with brine as a coagulant has a rough appearance, and there are impurities in the brine, so the color of the tofu made is slightly Yellowish!"

Feng Qian shook her head and said, "Tofu made with brine is naturally rough, but if you don't use brine and use other liquids as coagulants, these situations can be avoided."

"Other liquids?" Not only Cai Lingchu was stunned, but He Lingchu and Zhao Lingchu also looked at each other in blank dismay. Since they learned Lingchu, it was the first time they heard that there was a second way of making tofu.

Feng Qian nodded: "There is another way to make tofu, which is to use gypsum liquid as a coagulant. The tofu made of gypsum is bright white, smooth and tender. It is the best choice for making mapo tofu!"

Cai Lingchu and the three looked at each other, their eyes shining together.

"Is there really such tofu in the world?" Chef Cai Ling was surprised.

Feng Qian held her lips and smiled confidently: "When I make it, you will naturally know. Now, I want to see if the spirit beans you planted can make good tofu. The premise is to choose the best beans!"

"The planting of spiritual materials has always been in charge of He Lingchu!" Cai Lingchu said.

Chef He Ling waved his hand: "Chef Feng Ling, please follow me!"

The four of them left the storage room again and went to the spiritual material field. While they were visiting and selecting spiritual materials, the dean and the deputy dean were standing on the top of the tower at the highest point of the college, looking in the direction of the delicacy garden, paying attention silently.

"Tong Lao, it seems that you are right. This Feng girl is indeed different, and she may really bring new hope to the spirit chef department!"

"It's the dean who only uses your talents, and gave Miss Feng a chance to display her talents."

The dean waved his hand and said: "In these years, I have stuck to my laurels. Not only did I fail to lead Tianhong Academy back to its former glory, but it also made Tianhong Academy decline day by day, becoming the last of all colleges. I am really ashamed! As the three-yearly Five Kingdoms Contest is approaching, there are still only a handful of elites in the academy who can truly challenge the leaders. If this time the Five Nations Contest is still on the back burner, I really feel ashamed to continue Take the post of dean!"

The vice-principal comforted: "Principal, I can't blame you for this! When the moon is full, it will lose money, if the water overflows, it will be full, and the reincarnation of heaven, this is a fixed number, and it cannot be changed by manpower! Tianhong College was once glorious, but now it is in decline. It is also its destiny, but I always believe that Tianhong Academy will regain its former glory, and it will be in the not-too-distant future!"
