Omniscient and Almighty

   Chapter 120 Xiaoxiu first hand

Tofu, mushrooms, small green vegetables, and vermicelli at home, that is, the four ingredients used tonight. After returning from the vegetable market, he brought vermicelli with him. Xu Guangling thought about it and brought some salt. After putting on these things, go to Zhang's hometown.

   Zhang said that all pots and pans are available at home, but considering that the elderly do not cook by themselves, it is hard to say whether there is any salt at home.

   As for the oil, Xu Guangling actually wanted to bring it, but it was really inconvenient, and the oil he bought was the blended oil in the supermarket, and it wasn't a good oil to be praised, so if you think about it again, forget it.

  If there is no oil or salt in Zhang’s hometown, then the two old people will forcefully eat a “clear soup with little water” tonight. In fact, even if you put oil, Xu Guangling will only put a little.

   There is tofu.

   Besides, the authentic Jiupin Baiyu Soup doesn’t even put a drop of oil.

   Saying that it is now 4:30 in the afternoon, Xu Guangling estimated that the time is almost the same.

When entering the community, Xu Guangling received a slightly strange look after the post office today. Brother Zhao, who was standing guard at the door, saw Xu Guangling come to the door with something like tofu and vegetables, and his eyes were really Unspeakably weird, he looked at it for a while, and even smiled at him.

   Maybe it was because Xu Guangling brought the ingredients today and it was inconvenient to open the door?

   So this time, Xu Guangling enjoyed the treatment of being greeted at the door of the second old man again, and then he led him all the way through the east side room, and then, behind the small building, was actually a rather large yard!

  The yard is in the middle, with an open canopy, and there are several pots under it.

   "Occasionally used by my teacher to boil medicine." Seeing Xu Guangling looking at the pot, Zhang Lao explained.

   Hearing this explanation, Xu Guangling was astonished at why the old man’s house had all the pots and pans.

There is not much to say next. It is estimated that the old man has prepared quite a bit this morning, so the things Xu Guangling needs to use, such as knives, cutting boards, etc., are all placed in a conspicuous place on the table. As for the faucet, in the yard After several passes, Xu Guangling didn't know what to do with so many faucets.

  The pots and utensils are even more clean.

   So Xu Guangling has nothing to say, put down the ingredients, clean his hands, and then roll up his sleeves and start drying.

  The two old people stood beside Xu Guangling and watched him do it, and they were very interested in it, as if they were watching a trick. Xu Guangling was not at all stage frightened. He was "the true successor of the 19th generation of the Chinese Kitchen God." That's what he said when chatting with Mr. Dasha Jia on QQ that day.

  Why dare to brag so shamelessly? Of course there is some confidence.

He doesn't know the difference between the front elbow and the back elbow of a pig. He doesn't know which of the three sugars, rock sugar, brown sugar and white sugar, is the most suitable for cooking. He also doesn't know which of the eight major Chinese cuisines has the widest audience. He doesn't know which eight cuisines are, and if he is blind, it is estimated that he can get four or five.

but!

   But the dream gave him support.

Xu Guangling first soaked the vermicelli in clean water. The vermicelli didn't need to soak for a long time, twenty minutes was enough, and then he processed the other ingredients. When he picked up the knife to cut the tofu, the quick action , so that the very fine shredded tofu that was cut out made the two old people look straight.

   This is by no means that the two old people have no experience, and Mr. Chen has definitely seen the finer shredded tofu than Mr. Chen.

   but…

  How to say, this performance should not appear on Xu Guangling.

   "Humble words, have you really practiced cooking?" Zhang Lao couldn't help but ask.

   Don't look at anything else, this knife technique is by no means comparable to ordinary "home cooks", in fact, even a master chef, a real chef! It is estimated that it cannot be compared with Xu Guangling's performance at this time in knife work.

   In other words, it can also be said that with this knife work, Xu Guangling said that he was a chef, and the two old people probably couldn't believe it.

   If they had not been in contact with Xu Guangling for a while, the two elders had already accepted that Xu Guangling was a "genius" psychologically, and I am afraid that the surprise at this time would have been even greater. ——Normal young people, even professional chefs, are impossible or unlikely to have such knife skills.

   That proficiency, at first glance, is the kind of "decades of skill".

   As the saying goes, as soon as a connoisseur reaches out his hand, he will know if he has it or not. With this knife skill, the two elders have no doubts about Xu Guangling's "good cooking skills".

   "The disciple is a genius, so he learns everything quickly, and the same is true for cooking." Xu Guangling's hands were not moving at all, but he just said with a smile.

   Yes, genius, you can learn everything quickly, this cooking skill, this knife skill, just one day, no, just one night, you will know it! Great!

  The two old people didn't know that this shameless guy was talking nonsense, and they all praised him. Mr. Chen also gave Xu Guangling a thumbs up. If he knew the inside story, I wonder if he would have replaced his thumb with a big foot underneath.

  The skill of knife craftsman, the two old people can see it. Anyone can see it.

But whether the next cooking is good or bad, most people don't know. Looking at Zhang Lao's expression, Xu Guangling guessed that his teacher should not understand this, but did the two old people see Xu Guangling's expression, and With his movements like flowing clouds and flowing water, he knew that this guy probably really did it twice.

   Of course, at this time, no matter how well you perform, you still need the results to prove it.

  It is not uncommon for good flowers to bear crooked fruits.

   But for Xu Guangling, he still has this basic confidence. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to imitate him and perform this trick for the two old people. This soup, although he only made it for the first time, still has an 80-point self-evaluation.

   If he had only seen Jiupin Baiyu Soup in a dream, Xu Guangling might be able to give his soup 90 points at this time. Of course, Jiupin Baiyu Soup was 100%. However, after seeing the "Ten Fungus Clear Soup", even if it was a wonderful ninth-grade white jade soup, Xu Guangling could only give it ninety points, even if he couldn't say that it was bad and needed to deduct points. One hundred gave way to ten bacteria clear soup.

   So at this time, his own soup, he can only lean back, to the eighty-point position. In this way, it is even slightly elevated. If you really judged it strictly, it is estimated that you can only score 75 points.

   is between good and good at the level of "good", and cannot be rated as excellent.

   After a while, the soup was ready. In fact, it mainly takes a while for the vermicelli. If it is just mushrooms, tofu and green vegetables, it will take a few minutes.

  The bowls and chopsticks have been prepared for a long time. This soup is quite attractive when placed in a bowl.

In fact, in terms of appearance, there are no specific indicators, but a chef, as long as he is a little more skilled in cooking, will always pay attention to the "color" of the dishes consciously or unconsciously, and then form own characteristics.

   is like shredded tofu, the same thickness, but how long can it be the most suitable for the taste and "color"?

   And other materials, in terms of appearance, how to deal with it, so that the whole dish can be the most harmonious in appearance? If you are serious, this has actually risen to the level of aesthetics. - If nothing else, suppose a chef asks him or her to study art and painting for a few more years. After a few years, when he starts cooking again, it will definitely be different from before.

   What is the difference?

   means that the appearance of the dish is influenced by art and painting, and it is quite influenced!

  Xu Guangling does not understand aesthetics, and he is not a superb cook, but for a "cheating person", he does not need these, and he can naturally make dishes that satisfy him in all aspects. The taste is so, the texture is so, and the appearance is so.

   "Teacher, Elder Chen, please! Give it a try and see how your disciple's craft is." Xu Guangling said with a smile.
