Chapter 157: The Difference Between Banquet Packages
"What do you mean by this, young master?" Kuang Chu was a little confused, and at the same time raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that Xun Yu was not admitting defeat and planned to find some place for Wang Yong.
"There is no doubt about the umami, but I was not able to feel Chef Kwong's face in these dishes. If you have to say it, these dishes can only be regarded as 'handicrafts' made by process, and they cannot reach the level of 'artworks'. Xun Yu said slowly.
In other words, the dishes cooked by Kuang Chu gave her the feeling that she was showing off her skills. Show off his achievements in the field of umami, instead of presenting the umami of the dishes to them. It is not deniable that it is indeed delicious, but it is not very pleasant.
Just like a handicraft, it can be pleasing to the eye, but a work of art can make people see the ingenuity of the author and the emotions to be expressed.
"Crafts, works of art...... I see...... Kwong seems to be immature. After Xun Yu's little push, Kuang Chu seemed to feel something, it was the threshold to the super chef.
A person who has reached the pinnacle of medical skills is called a master, and in the chef industry, a senior chef can only be called a master chef, and only a master chef can be called a master. The difference between one word and the difference is a thousand miles!
What is the gap between the chef and the master time, no one has taught Kuang Chu before, he doesn't know, he groped by himself, had no direction, and failed again and again. Xun Yu dialed it a little, and suddenly understood, at least he had a direction to work towards.
"Yu'er, what you said is the ability that only superchefs have, and it is a bit difficult to say this in this competition!" Xun Qi is a little unaccustomed to it, this little daughter is so partial to an outsider, even if that person may be her son-in-law.
Is it a female college that is not left? Xun Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was not married yet, so he was so partial to others!
"My part is done, too!" At this time, Wang Yong also announced that the dishes he had prepared had been completed.
"Let's not talk about that, you'll know if you eat it!" Xun Yu didn't elaborate.
"That's good!" Xun Qi didn't want to say anything, just asked people to remove the food from the table.
"Senior Kuang, I have also prepared something for you, and I hope that the seniors will teach you a lot!" Wang Yong took out two set meals, and then took out another one and put it in front of Kuang Chu.
"Boy, quite kind?" Kuang Chu naturally knew what Wang Yong meant, and simply planned to see his cooking skills.
"It's not the soup first, but everything together?" When Wang Yong brought things up, Xun Qi was a little strange, usually dishes came up one by one, but this time they were served in one go.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not preparing a banquet menu, but a set meal!" Wang Yong said slowly, "I am a junior chef after all, and I am not very good at banquet dishes, but I am more familiar with the set menu. ”
"Package?" Xun Qian thought for a while, "It's like those Cantonese roast meat sets for the Sunshine Breakfast?" ”
Generally speaking, a roast meat set, in addition to the meat you choose, will also include a small plate of green vegetables and a bowl of soup. The soup is generally duck red soup...... Speaking of which, listening to her daughter, Wang Yong seems to be the founder of Sunshine Breakfast.
"You can say that...... The concept of a set meal is actually similar to a banquet, through the combination of different dishes, to achieve a whole, but the form is not the same. Wang Yong replied.
"I see...... looking at the set meal in front of him, Xun Qian thought for a while, "I've drunk soup before, this time it's better to start with the staple food, there should be no order, right?" ”
"No, it's all up to personal likes and dislikes, you can eat whatever you want, and you can add soup and side dishes!" Wang Yong smiled.
"Mother...... It's best to taste a little bit of everything before you eat it! Xun Yu looked at the set meal in front of her with a little embarrassment, it was full of color, flavor and taste, and she looked very appetizing, but she didn't dare to put down chopsticks.
"What's wrong? Don't you respect Wang Yong's craftsmanship very much, why do you have an embarrassed expression? Xun Qian quipped.
"He really can't cook seriously these days...... Xun Yu swallowed her saliva, and she was struggling in her heart, this set meal is definitely very problematic, but she can't help but want to eat it.
"Is this going to be a bad meal?" Kuang Chu smiled, "Then I'll try the taste first!" ”
After saying that, he directly opened the covered sea bowl, revealing the eel rice bowl inside. The fragrance is very light, not even as strong as his, and it doesn't feel very good.
When I really ate it, I found that the eel was crispy on the outside, but soft and juicy on the inside, and the taste was very different from my own.
However, the sauce tends to be light, and the flavor of the sauce is not strong, but in this way, the umami of the eel is highlighted.
Flavor? Kuang Chu was stunned for a moment, this method of improving freshness is obviously a means that only chefs who understand umami will use! In other words, Wang Yong has already touched the threshold of a senior chef? Damn, he's just a junior chef!
The key is that he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, so he has touched the threshold of a senior chef at such a young age, and he must be an excellent senior chef in the future, and he will even be able to become a special chef, which is nothing more than a matter of time or time!
The gravy soaks one-third of the rice, which means that even if you eat it as is, it will be delicious. In terms of craftsmanship, there are still some flaws in the heat and seasoning, but the flaws are not hidden! With this skill, the level of intermediate chefs, or even high-grade intermediate chefs, must have arrived!
"This is ......" put down the rice bowl for a while, and Kuang Chu looked at a small plate of river clams next to him.
"Vinegar mixed with river clams, simply blanch the river clams, with aged vinegar, soy sauce and minced garlic, and stir with a drop or two of sesame oil." When Wang Yong heard this, he replied with a smile.
"I see, the third course is a cold salad like me." Kuang Chu picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful, then put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully.
In the mouth, there is a burst of vinegar and a pungent taste of garlic, two flavors that make the umami of the river clam even more prominent. It is simply blanched and boiled, which makes the river clam not only sweet, but also retains the umami to the greatest extent, which is a very rough dish.
The key is that it is refreshing, it clears the soup and the greasy feeling of the rice bowl, and the vinegar and garlic flavor are also appetizing.
"I see, the set meal......" Kuang Chu subconsciously picked up the rice bowl and ate another bite of rice.
"Huh?" As a senior chef, he seems to realize something. I just ate this bowl of rice, at most I only vaguely felt the umami of this bowl of rice, after eating vinegar mixed with river clams, and then eating eel rice, the umami seems to have more than doubled!
The rice is more fragrant and the eel is more delicious, so if you serve them separately, it will be difficult to have such a taste. It turns out that this is the secret of the package! In fact, it is the same as the banquet dish, it is also a puzzle, but the concept is slightly different!
If the banquet dishes are a puzzle piece after another, forming a whole, then the set meal is a three-dimensional puzzle, through one part after another, to build a whole.
"It's very curious, what will happen when I drink this bowl of soup......" Kwong Chu slowly picked up the soup bowl.
