Chapter 62 Dips
It is not a simple matter to taste the seasoning one bite at a time, even the seasonings that can be seen in the market.

Jiang Yang didn't know that this was a test given to him by Chen Quanzhou. It was just a difficult task that few people completed.And the most important thing is that even after trying it all, there may not be any results.

The main reason is that the taste required by this method is too harsh, and there are only subtle differences in the taste between seasonings, such as different varieties of peppers.This requires people with a strong sense of taste to distinguish, and there are very few such people, even fewer who can become chefs.

In addition, you need to be imaginative, able to imagine what flavors those flavors can be combined into.This is talent, and many people cannot achieve this level.

Perhaps what Chen Quanzhou didn't expect was that Jiang Yang had a system to improve his physical fitness, which greatly improved his sense of taste.

One thing Chen Quanzhou said was right, this method may seem a bit sloppy, but it is really the best method.Usually chefs learn that all seasonings have been fixed, what should be put in how much, and the order of putting in has a fixed template.It is convenient and efficient to learn in this way, but it also makes people form a fixed thinking mode.Once a fixed thinking pattern is formed, it is somewhat difficult to break it.

Jiangyang's method is different. It does not give you a fixed combination, but allows you to understand the differences between seasonings and the unique taste of each seasoning.This method does not limit Jiang Yang's thinking, allowing his dishes to have more varied and rich tastes in the future.

Of course, Jiang Yang still has a long way to go from this level.There are more than ten million combinations of seasonings, some of which are delicious and some of which are not.If you rely on Jiang Yang's various attempts, then I am afraid that he will not be able to try much delicious food when he is old.At this time, the most important thing is to learn, learn those famous dishes, learn the combination of seasonings, and only after you have enough experience can you talk about creating your own dishes.

Jiang Yang tasted these seasonings at home for several days before he finished the initial taste.As for these seasonings, Jiang Yang also carefully made a note for future reference.

On this day, Jiang Yang went to Chen's restaurant again.Chen Quanzhou didn't care that Jiang Yang hadn't come to find him for several days, and he didn't even intend to ask Jiang Yang how many seasonings he had tasted.He said at the beginning that he was only responsible for teaching, and it was only Jiang Yang's personal efforts to learn how much he could learn.

Jiang Yang's arrival made Chen Quanzhou very calm, and he started the next step of teaching without asking too much.

"After you have tasted the seasoning, you must have a preliminary understanding of these seasonings. Then you can proceed to the next step, adjusting the seasoning!" Chen Quanzhou said with his hands behind his back.

Jiang Yang asked, "Why?"

Chen Quanzhou glanced at him, nodded slightly, and said, "That's right, I knew the reason to ask clearly, and I didn't do it blindly." After he paused, he said: "The preparation of dipping sauce is the initial application of seasoning, and most dipping sauces They all don’t require temperature, that is, various seasonings are mixed together in different proportions.”

"The combination of seasonings is ever-changing, and the difference in temperature may also lead to different tastes. Even I have not fully grasped the changes. The preparation of this dipping sauce is relatively simple, and it is just right for you to practice now." Chen After Quanzhou finished speaking, he took Jiang Yang into the kitchen.

Pointing to those seasonings, he said, "You can try to prepare a dipping sauce for white radish today."

Jiang Yang was taken aback for a moment, what kind of flavor did this say?Chen Quanzhou did not explain, and walked away with his hands behind his back.Leaving Jiang Yang wandering alone, messy in the wind.

Jiang Yang cried out sadly in his heart, at least you can tell me the direction!Sweet?spicy?Or something else, at least there is a saying!This is inexplicably asking me to get a dipping sauce, how do I know what it tastes like!
Helpless, Jiang Yang could only try the tune.As for the taste, Jiang Yang can only adjust it according to his own taste.

Failure is inevitable. Jiang Yang adjusted many copies, but he always felt that something was missing, and the taste was not what he wanted.

Only then did Jiang Yang realize that seasoning was quite difficult.Time passed slowly, and when Jiang Yang went back at night, he didn't make up an imaginary dip.

After Jiang Yang left, Chen Quanzhou's son frowned and said, "Dad, isn't this too wasteful?"

Chen Quanzhou waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I don't pay much attention to this thing." After speaking, Chen Quanzhou left the kitchen.He also tasted Jiangyang's dipping sauce, his eyes thoughtful.

In this way, it took Jiang Yang several days to prepare a dip that he was satisfied with.He couldn't help it, and took it to Chen Quanzhou for inspection. Chen Quanzhou tasted it, but didn't comment.Instead, he said: "Next, you prepare a dipping sauce for the customers in the store, so that they can taste the taste you want them to eat."

Jiang Yang was taken aback, let them eat what he wanted them to eat?It is not easy to take, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, that kind of taste is fine!

I was a little confused, but Jiang Yang still followed what Chen Quanzhou said.

Although Chen's restaurant specializes in mapo tofu, it does not mean that there is only one dish of mapo tofu.In fact, the dishes of Chen's restaurant are quite complete.The number of diners here need not be less than that of Fang Xing Lou, but the space of Chen's restaurant is much smaller than that of Fang Xing Lou.

In the past two days, a legend has spread in Chen's restaurant. It is said that all dipping dishes will have a special dipping sauce, which has various flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty.Which one to eat depends entirely on luck, but none of the dipping sauces tastes good.Of course, Chen's restaurant still has normal dipping sauces. It will affect whether you eat this special dipping sauce.

As soon as this saying spread, it also attracted many customers to Chen's restaurant.There is never a shortage of curious people in this world. They tried with a curious attitude, which unexpectedly brought better business to Chen's Restaurant.Of course, not every guest is willing to try this unknown dipping sauce.

However, this special dipping sauce did not last for a few days, and then a young man appeared in Chen's restaurant, and he would take the trouble to ask you what kind of dipping sauce you want to eat.

And after this kind of inquiry, the dipping sauce that comes with it is indeed more in line with your wishes.As soon as this happened, more guests were attracted.

Chen Quanzhou's son never said anything wasteful again, instead he waved his hand, telling Jiang Yang to use whatever he wanted.

The outside world has different opinions on this.Some people think that this is the hype of Chen's restaurant, and some people think that this is a very strange experience.

This is the fourth stage of Jiangyang's task, to configure the taste that the guests want to eat.This task is much more difficult. Everyone's taste is different, and many people actually don't know what flavor of dipping sauce they want to eat.

This stage also gave Jiang Yang a big headache.Fortunately, he has been constantly configuring dipping sauces in recent days, coupled with daily practice in the system space, so that his dipping sauces will not taste too bad.

Jiang Yang has made more dipping sauces these days than he has made in the past 20 years. Now he dreams that he is making dipping sauces when he sleeps, and feels that every breath of air is the smell of seasonings.

Yes, these days his sense of taste has been fully occupied by seasonings, causing him to subconsciously wonder what seasonings are in it as soon as he eats a dish.

The effect is also obvious. Jiang Yang can already taste what kind of condiments are put in a dish and how much is put in it just by his sense of taste.What followed was that Jiang Yang became more and more picky.
