Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 122

Chapter 122

From the second day on, Wang Yong went straight into a busy state.

The celebration banquet is mainly for military officers, and only middle-level and above can participate, but ordinary soldiers and low-level military officers naturally have to take care of it.Everyone has contributed to this battle, and we can't lose sight of the other.

"The [-] servings of food must be settled. Rice is the main food. Each soldier has a fried egg, a plate of green vegetables, another plate of braised pork, and some pickles. Make more rice and tell the soldiers that they can add unlimited rice, but don't waste it! "Mao Jie, as the marching chef, is mainly responsible for the meals of soldiers and low-level officers.

Of course, Wang Yong couldn't take it easy, he was responsible for the dinner of Cao Cao and other high-level civil and military officials.

To celebrate the victory today, Cao Cao will go to the barracks in the morning to condolences to the soldiers, especially those wounded.Until one meal in the evening, then eat fruit, drink and watch performances.The last thing is the most critical, and that is the evaluation of this battle, followed by various appointments.

The military merit needs to be calculated today, which is why the dinner was not held yesterday, but tonight.Ordinarily, civil servants would have a military merit book, and Cheng Yu and Guo Jia had to sort them out and report them to Cao Cao, who would arrange promotions or rewards.Generally speaking, the two will also give some suggestions for Cao Cao's reference.

Everyone is very busy, and Wang Yong hasn't stopped since the morning.The most idle in the entire army is probably the three captured enemy generals.They were placed under house arrest, and they would not be allowed to participate until the banquet tonight.

"The beef will be taken out in the afternoon, and the onions should be prepared first! Yes, the white ones, just grind them for later use!" Wang Yong kept walking in the kitchen, and kept yelling.

The soup should be boiled first, and a good broth needs to be boiled slowly, starting from noon, using clove fish.A kind of fish that is very small and does not grow big, it is generally used to make small dried fish, and this small dried fish is also a good product for making soup.

"After the clove fish is made into small dried fish, the umami taste is concentrated. Using such small dried fish to make soup, you don't have to think about it. The soup is very delicious. At this time, add soaked seaweed and egg flower Although this soup is very simple, it is a superposition of triple umami!" Wang Yong also gave some advice to the helpers at the right time.

"But there are some things to pay attention to. First of all, fresh eggs must be selected. There is no doubt about this! The second point is that the seaweed must be cleaned carefully, otherwise it will damage the taste! The third point is the seasoning, because seaweed and small fish Drying has a salty taste, so you must be careful when adding salt, otherwise it will be too salty!" Wang Yong continued.

"Understood!" The chefs nodded one after another. They couldn't use the recipes, but for them, this theory of umami and seasoning was like piercing a layer of window paper, and many things suddenly became clear.

Some people will even continue to grow because of this, and then become intermediate or even senior chefs.At that time, they will not just be a helper.

At first, Wang Yong thought that the person who revealed that he was going to cook the meat must be someone who was a disgruntled cook.Most of them have junior chef qualifications, but they want to accept their own leadership. If there are no complaints, Wang Yong will not believe it.

And what he has to do is also very simple, which is to let him see the gap in strength between the two sides, and at the same time sell favors.Just look at one or two of these kitchen helpers who are obedient and obedient, and even some smart people have gratitude in their eyes.

In a blink of an eye, there were still two hours before the dinner, and Dian Wei came over once during the period, mainly to remind him about this matter.At the same time, it was on behalf of Cao Cao to see if the legendary 'stinky beef' was edible... But Wang Yong felt that the real purpose of her coming here was to sneak some before dinner.

Needless to say, a piece of fried steak was indispensable, without much seasoning, and it was handed to her after it was fried.

"This taste... the key is this taste... why is it gone?" Dian Wei tilted his head, looked at the empty plate, and looked directly at Wang Yong with a suspicious expression.

"Hey, it's almost ready!" Wang Yong complained directly, obviously eating it himself, why did he still look at it with the eyes of "did you steal my steak?"

"I still want to eat!" Dian Wei said, "Please continue to feed."

"The dinner party has prepared a large one for you, but it really can't be done now!" Wang Yong shook his head.

"Since this is the case... then I'll spare you first!" Dian Wei looked at Wang Yong, and after confirming that he really didn't want to give it, he turned around and left him a gorgeous figure.

"It's obvious that I came here to steal food, so how could it be my fault?" Wang Yong felt a headache, this Dian Wei has the attributes of a robber.

"Cut the beef marinated with onions before, take it out and use it separately! Use high-grade rapeseed oil or olive oil for fat, fry one side on high heat for about [-] breaths, then turn down the heat and fry the other side slowly, um, it's like That's it!" Wang Yong summoned the other chefs to demonstrate the method.

First fry the steak and make it according to the number of people attending the banquet.In fact, two cows were almost enough, and after asking Cao Cao for instructions, the remaining one was directly fried and sent to the low-level officers in the barracks.Even if they are corporal commanders, they can be regarded as moderate officers, so naturally they cannot be treated like ordinary soldiers.

"Understood!" The chefs in charge of cutting and frying the steak replied one after another.

"The green vegetables are simply blanched in water to remove the grassy smell in the vegetables. Take them out and drain them, then put them in the oil pan, fry them until they are four ripe, then add soybean paste and seasonings. Because the soybean paste itself has a certain salty taste , so the amount of salt should be controlled." Wang Yong then went to another area and told the helpers who were in charge of frying vegetables.

"Understood!" The kitchen helper who was in charge of the vegetables immediately replied.

"Start seasoning the seaweed egg drop soup, add it slowly to ensure the taste is delicious, but not too salty!" Wang Yong finally reminded, after all, the recipe of seaweed egg drop soup sounds very simple.

The seaweed was found directly from the Wanshiwu, but the chef's guild didn't have it.It is said to be medicinal. It seems that people in this world do not know how to cook seaweed or seaweed.

By the way, do you want to find a way to get some kelp some other day?It is said that the original monosodium glutamate was extracted from kelp, and of course there is also a saying that it was extracted from sea intestines.

"After the steak is fried, don't wash the pot first, add rice wine (originally red wine), pour in the remaining onions, add black soy sauce, add gravy (wheat starch) to thicken... Yes, that's it, spread the steak on On top of the rice, then pour the fried onions and the gravy on it, the gravy must be able to soak one-third of the rice to be considered qualified." Wang Yong did not dare to be sloppy when it came to the last step.

Rice bowls are not unique to island countries. In Gansu, they are called rice bowls, while in Northeast China they are called risotto, and in Guangdong, they are also called plate rice. After all, the food is eaten in one tableware.Perhaps it is because of the different tableware and different methods of serving that they have different names.

"It tastes very good!" After the finished product was finished, many of the helpers twitched their noses. This compounded taste makes people fascinated by the smell. "Just because of this taste, it is absolutely delicious !"

"There is no smell at all. Is this really stinky beef?" Someone whispered.

"Didn't the chef say that? This is cooked meat made under special circumstances! From the beginning, it wasn't stinky meat!" Naturally, some people directly refuted it.

"If you don't eat it, who knows how it tastes?" Naturally, some people made such sour remarks.

"What nonsense?" Wang Yong naturally heard their conversation, "Before the banquet has started, why don't you hurry up and prepare the dishes if you have time? After the banquet starts, we have to take things out, but before that , you take turns to eat!"

There is no rank in the kitchen, so naturally there is no way to sit in the table. Eating in the kitchen is an inevitable result.But this is also an advantage, that is, they can directly taste the dishes on the banquet in advance.

In other words, it is also good to taste in advance, at least to ensure the taste of the dishes, and at the same time, if someone poisons, the problem can be found immediately, at least Cao Cao will not be hurt.

"Thank you, Master Chef!" Knowing that they can eat in turn, and that they can be eaten in advance, the help chefs immediately cheered.Simply put on a plate, a rice bowl set has been made, and then start to taste.

"This..." When I really tasted the taste, the expected smell did not appear at all. In the shock, the chopsticks couldn't stop at all. When I came back to my senses, the set meal was completely eaten.

"When did I finish eating? Who ate my set meal?" Immediately, the helper shouted angrily.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The helper, who was busy working next to him, complained directly, "You ate the set meal by yourself, and we are all drooling!"

"What did I eat?" The kitchen assistant seemed to recall something when he heard the words, "I vaguely remember that it was really me who ate it, but what happened to the smell? I was completely immersed in it, and when I came to my senses, it was gone!"

"Is it delicious?" Naturally, some people asked insanely. In fact, there was no need for it. I didn't see other people eating the set meal cleanly. Even if it was salted plum, there were only two cores left.

"What a miraculous texture and taste, let me tell you..." Those who had eaten it began to brag, but in fact they didn't know much about the taste.

"The next batch! Time is running out, everyone, work hard, come and help after eating!" Wang Yong yelled.

"Come on!" At this time, everyone reacted and quickly got busy again.

The dinner started as scheduled, and Cao Cao and others took their seats one after another. The weather tonight is fine, with no clouds in the sky, and the rising moon can be seen vaguely.On such a day, holding a celebration banquet should be a very pleasant thing.

Cao Cao looked around and made sure that everyone was present, even the three captives were seated. He nodded and announced, "Since everyone is present, let's serve the food soon!"

The back kitchen received the news, and under Wang Yong's leadership, set meals were brought up one after another and delivered to the guests.

After looking at the set meal, Cao Cao nodded his head and shouted loudly: "Large tea and light rice, please eat slowly!"

 It's a bit late, and the new chapter will be revised tonight, which is also an overhaul.There are indeed many problems in the chapters that have been rushed out temporarily. After all, I don't like outlines when I write novels, so such problems will arise. Chapter 2 is released a little late because of this, please forgive me.

  Ask for collection, please recommend!This book will be on shelves on March [-]st, please give me a full order, please show your face.
