Chapter 538 Looks decent

In Yang Hongmei's view, capital cuisine is the most basic thing, and capital cuisine is not difficult. If the foundation has not been laid, then it is completely inadvisable to rush to learn other cuisines. It can even be said to have picked up sesame seeds. I lost the watermelon, so Yang Hongmei didn't plan to teach her other things so soon, she looked at Yan Lan and said, "Don't worry now, the capital cuisine is the most basic thing, you can learn the capital cuisine first. , as for the others, I will teach you slowly, and when I first came to the state-run restaurant, I was an apprentice for two years, and it was only in the third year that I officially cooked some dishes on the table. It’s not the main dish, it’s just some side dishes and some side dishes.”

When Yang Hongmei entered the state-run restaurant, the master chefs in the state-run restaurant were even more powerful. They used to work in the imperial kitchen. Although they were not considered the leading imperial chefs, they also got the authenticity. The local cuisine they made and other aspects It’s all about first class. If Yang Hongmei’s husband hadn’t been capable, others would not accept apprentices. Thinking of these things, Yang Hongmei couldn’t help but say to Yan Lan, “When I entered the state-run restaurant, My master is still the imperial chef in the palace, and the food he cooks is really good, speaking of it, I only got half of his true biography, which is a pity!"

Hearing the word Yu Chu, Yan Lan opened her eyes curiously and asked, "Is Yu Chu's cooking particularly delicious? It must be, otherwise, the master's cooking wouldn't be so delicious!" Yan Lan I'm really curious about what kind of person the master's master is, because Yang Hongmei's food is already top-quality in her opinion, and people who come here to eat, whether they are ordinary people or leaders, all praise the dishes here Plus, Yan Lan felt that Yang Hongmei's cooking skills had reached the pinnacle, but Yang Hongmei also said that her cooking skills were only half of her master's, so how good her master must be!But yes, the chef who used to cook for the emperor in the palace, so can the cooking skills be poor?
"My master..." Yang Hongmei said slowly, "Before retirement, my master was responsible for receiving foreign guests. Whenever foreign guests came, my master would go back to cook. After retirement, the master came to the state-run restaurant. Logically speaking , such a powerful teacher like him should take care of himself for the rest of his life, but he just can't sit still, and he also said that he hopes his craft can be passed on to others. Although he has many apprentices, he always feels that It would be better if more people know these skills, so I took the last train." Thinking of the days when she was apprenticed to a teacher, Yang Hongmei couldn't help feeling a little emotional.But I have to say that Yang Hongmei really learned a lot from learning skills from the royal chef, and probably knew how they learned skills in the palace at that time.

"Ah! What about your master now?" Yan Lan asked curiously, "Don't you cook now?"

Yang Hongmei looked at Yan Lan helplessly and said, "My master was very old when he taught me. He passed away not long after I was officially able to take over the spoon. The master has no descendants in his life, but he has many apprentices." , from a certain point of view, this life is not in vain.”

Yan Lan nodded, and she said, "Master Tai is really amazing, but Master, why have I followed you for such a long time, and you still only let me chop cold vegetables? You didn't even let me be independent Operation, I have made seasonings and so on, just let me do some work on the chopping board." Yan Lan originally didn't intend to ask Yang Hongmei about this matter, but after weighing it, she couldn't help the doubts in her heart, and asked Yang Hongmei Yes, after all, Yang Hongmei didn't know if she was tired at the moment. She looked tired, but she was a little gentler than usual. She didn't even have to be as serious as usual, and her tone of voice became softer.

Yang Hongmei shook her head, looked at Yan Lan seriously, and said, "You are different from me before. When I came here to learn cooking skills, I still had some knowledge. Before you came here, you didn't know any cooking skills. You haven't learned it, have you?"

"That's right." Although Yan Lan felt embarrassed to admit it, she had never learned anything before she came here to learn crafts, so she nodded cautiously and said, "I have never learned anything before. "It can even be said that before coming to the state-run restaurant, Yan Lan didn't even know how to chop vegetables. After coming here, she slowly groped for these things, but her speed and movements of chopping vegetables became more and more proficient.

Yang Hongmei nodded and said, "That's right. You don't even know the basic skills of a chef, so how can you do the next thing? So what I teach you is the basic skills at the beginning. You must master the most basic skills. After you have practiced the things, you can do other things." After speaking, Yang Hongmei sighed deeply and said, "This is how chefs come here. If they haven't learned to walk, how can they learn to run?" After speaking, Yang Hongmei looked at Yan Lan seriously.

Yan Lan was a little embarrassed by Yang Hongmei, but she nodded and said, "You are right." What Yang Hongmei said made sense, although she had never seen Yang Hongmei chop vegetables herself, but she didn't have to think about it. I also know that every chef starts from the most basic, so Yang Hongmei's basic skills must not be bad, otherwise, she would not just use the vegetables she cuts to cook for the first time. After pinching it with my hand, I directly said that the slice was too thick.

"Since I think what I said makes sense, then continue to study hard." Yang Hongmei is actually very optimistic about Yan Lan. Since she became a chef in a state-run restaurant, many people come to want to be her apprentice every year. Yes, Yang Hongmei also brought a lot of apprentices, but to be honest, it is really rare to see someone as guilty and studious as Yan Lan, so Yang Hongmei decided to teach this apprentice well, she watched carefully. Yan Lan said, "Anyway, when you do things, don't be impatient, you must take it easy, just like chopping vegetables, the more anxious you are, the harder it is to fix them, and even cut your hands, you say yes Isn’t it?” For Yang Hongmei, these are all experiences.

Yan Lan nodded after thinking about it. She really didn't know how to chop vegetables at first, but she is much better now, at least she looks pretty decent.
