Chapter 634： Feng Yifan's Improved Dish

The next day, Shi Jiahui, who had just woke up, dialed Feng Yifan's number in the hotel room.

On the phone, Shi Jiahui was still very blunt to express her feelings.

"Yifan, it must be said that your apprentice has really worked hard in service and seasoning. However, he overly pursues non-greasy taste, but ignores the most fundamental thing about fried rice. Fried rice is dry and dry. It is not dry, the grains are distinct without losing moisture and elasticity.

However, after Ruifeng's improvement, although it did neutralize a lot of greasy taste problems, it also caused the fried rice to lose its proper graininess and chewing taste. "

Feng Yifan didn't feel surprised when he heard what the senior sister said on the phone. He also asked directly: "Then, senior sister, do you think he lost this competition against Ruifeng?"

Shi Jiahui thought for a while and said, “I can’t just say that Ruifeng lost. After all, his fried rice really tastes good, and because he asked about my taste and preferences, for me, apart from lacking the chewy texture of the rice, the taste I still have to beat Ma Xiaolong."

After another period of hesitation, Shi Jiahui said: "I don't want to say who wins and who loses. I will give them points separately. Ma Xiaolong's gimmicks are novel. Both barbecue and fried rice have been played well by him. If it is very good, you can give He scored 8 points. If Ruifeng, give it 7 points."

After listening to the scoring of the master, Feng Yifan said seriously on the phone: "Well, thank you, master, I understand."

After Lin Ruifeng and Ma Xiaolong competed, Feng Yifan asked again: "Sister Master is in a hurry to go back? If you are not in a hurry, can you wait for us to go back next week to meet you? I have something I want to talk to Master Sister in person. Chat, can you?"

On the other side of the phone, when he heard Feng Yifan's question, Shi Jiahui's mouth rose slightly, knowing that her guess was correct.

Feng Yifan really wanted to invite her to join Su Ji.

Shi Jiahui was silent for a while, and then agreed on the phone: "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

When Feng Yifan saw Shi Jiahui's promise, he actually had a bottom line in his heart: "Thank you, Master Sister, then we will see you next week."

Shi Jiahui promised: "Okay, see you next week."

After hanging up the phone with Shi Jiahui, Feng Yifan looked at his father-in-law who was sitting in a wheelchair in the kitchen, and directly relayed Shi Jiahui's words.

After hearing this, Su Jinrong laughed: "In this way, Jia Hui is very serious."

Feng Yifan also followed with a smile and said: "Yes, the big sister is very serious, so it seems that if Ruifeng wants to win, it should not be so easy."

Su Jinrong said: "It doesn't get in the way. Losing once or twice is a lesson for Xiao Lin to understand that it is not easy to be a good cook."

Immediately afterwards, Su Jinrong asked again: "Does that Jiahui agree to wait for you to go back?"

Feng Yifan nodded: "Well, Senior Sister agreed to wait until I go back to see the last time. I think Senior Sister should have guessed it. I want to invite her to join Su Ji."

Su Jinrong went on to say: "If this is the case, Jia Hui should be willing to join Su Ji."

Seeing his son-in-law nodded, Su Jinrong said: "The team you want to form is now a chef team, but you still lack a very important person."

Feng Yifan looked at his father-in-law and said, "I know, I have someone to choose, but I don't know if he wants it?"

Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Perhaps he, like your senior sister, is also waiting for your invitation."

At this moment, both Weng and Son knew who each other was talking about, but they did not say each other's name in a tacit understanding.

Ning Cheng, who practices knife skills in the kitchen, is full of curiosity about all this. But he knew very well that he couldn't ask, because he didn't have the qualifications to be a teacher. Only if he successfully became a teacher can he enter Su Ji and be qualified to know more.

After understanding this, Ning Cheng worked harder to practice knife skills.

Then the topic of Weng and son-in-law changed and returned to the research of new dishes.

Su Jinrong looked at Feng Yifan and asked, "By the way, has the eggplant that you made before has been successful?"

When asked by his father-in-law, Feng Yifan nodded and said, "Well, I have done some experiments and improvements. It should be considered successful. I can give you a stir-fry at noon. Dad, give it a taste."

Su Jinrong listened and smiled and said, "Where do you need me to taste the dishes you cook?"

Feng Yifan still said respectfully: "Dad, no matter when, you are also my mentor, so if you can get your approval, that must be my greatest affirmation."

When Su Jinrong heard these words from his son-in-law, he couldn't help but fall into memories.

As for Su Jinrong's apprentices, there are really so many.

Not to mention the earliest Zhang Fenglin, before taking Feng Yifan, Su Jinrong also accepted several apprentices.

It’s just that most of those apprentices thought they had mastered the essence when they were not mastering the arts, so most of them didn’t wait to learn the essence of Su Ji cuisine and left Su Ji early. Most of them went to find their own way. I really miss Su Jinrong's teacher-student relationship.

The most fundamental reason for this is that Su Ji’s dishes are extremely demanding in all respects.

First of all, the knife skill has to practice for three or five years, and then there is firework, and various seasoning and cooking techniques.

And Su Jinrong was a master who strictly followed the requirements of his father at the time, so he had extremely strict requirements for every apprentice. From the time when Zhang Fenglin decisively left, it is not difficult to see that the following disciples left, part of the reason why they could not stand the harshness.

Those apprentices who leave Su Ji may have a good opportunity at the beginning.

But over time, the problem of poor learning will be exposed.

In the end, naturally, it can only be the end of all living beings.

In the absence of any results, those apprentices naturally humiliated the door before coming to Su Jinrong.

Recalling the scene when he was leading the apprentice, Su Jinrong's memory seemed to be all kinds of scolding his apprentices. Thinking about it this way, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty for those apprentices.

Fortunately, Su Jinrong was pleased that in the end Feng Yifan persisted.

Otherwise, Su Jinrong felt that the inheritance of Su Ji might really be broken in his hands.

Fortunately, he felt so grateful to his son-in-law.

The son-in-law did not live up to his expectations and returned from studying abroad, giving Su Ji a new lease of life. From the bottom of his heart, Su Jinrong looks forward to the fact that in the future, his son-in-law can make Su Ji relive his former prosperity and become an exclusive private kitchen restaurant praised by people.

When Feng Yifan saw his father-in-law sitting there, he just stared at himself without saying a word.

He vaguely felt the expectation in his father-in-law's eyes, and could probably guess his father-in-law's thoughts at this time.

Without saying anything, Feng Yifan turned his head and said to Ning Cheng, who had stopped, "What's wrong? I took a break so soon? You don't have much time. There are less than 20 days before Ruoruo kindergarten starts. You Do you think your current knife skills can pass the test?"

Ning Cheng, who had been resting for a while, woke up suddenly, and quickly lowered his head to continue practicing knife skills.

Su Jinrong heard the words, looked at Ning Cheng, then looked at his son-in-law, smiled and said, "You should think more, don't just practice, think more about skills."

Ning Cheng paused after hearing the words, raised his head and said, "Grandpa Rong, I understand."

Seeing that Ning Cheng continued to lower his head to practice knife skills, Su Jinrong nodded with satisfaction.

Feng Yifan checked the time and started to prepare today's lunch.

The first is to take out the egg carp that I made before.

These eggfish were made by Feng Yifan after improvement based on the ancient methods of the Red Chamber Book.

There is a so-called "nine steaming and nine drying" in the book.

Feng Yifan didn't use that method. Instead, he cooked the sliced ​​eggplant in clear chicken soup, then cut the cooked eggplant into cubes, and then slowly dried it in the sun.

After airing and drying, the diced eggplant is fried with chicken fat, some ingredients and seasonings are added, and it is fried in a similar way to Babao sauce.

Fry it, put it in a small jar, seal the top with chicken fat, and cover it for storage.

During the frying process, Feng Yifan is also fried with chicken fat, adding "dried shrimps, peanuts, diced chicken, scallops, dried tofu, dried bamboo shoots, and minced pork". The seasoning is mainly bean paste with salt, sugar and pepper. , The whole process is dry stir-fry, almost without adding any soup.

The purpose of this is to ensure that the fried egg carp is dry enough, and then sealed in a small jar before it can be kept for a long time.

At the moment of opening the altar, the scent of chicken oil can still be clearly smelled.

Feng Yifan dug out some diced eggplants and put them in a small bowl.

Then, remove the chicken from the chicken thigh, marinate it with green onion **** water and rice wine, and then start to stir-fry it in a pot. Stir-fry until the chicken is discolored, then pour the eggplant in a small bowl into it, mix together and stir fry for a good taste.

At this moment, the whole kitchen was filled with fragrance, and people couldn't help but swallow.

Rao Ning Cheng has been practicing knife skills in the kitchen these days, and he can smell the fragrance every day. Smelling the scent at this moment, I couldn't help but swallow several mouthfuls of saliva. It was really very fragrant.

Su Jinrong smelled the scent, swallowed and said, "Well, it's really fragrant."

When Feng Yifan heard what his father-in-law said, he was quite a little proud: "Dad said that. It seems that my improvement has worked well."

Su Jinrong recalled Feng Yifan's production method, and he admired his son-in-law a little bit.

"How did you think of using Babao Chili Sauce to make this egg carp?"

Feng Yifan gave a serious explanation to his father-in-law with a serious expression on his face.

"Dad, first of all, according to the description in the book, the egg carp has to be steamed and dried for nine times, and it is steamed with chicken soup every time. I think this should be untrue. The extravagant and extravagant practices of the big family deliberately exaggerated."

Su Jinrong shook his head and said: "According to the research of some scholars, it does not seem to indicate that that approach is wrong."

Feng Yifan continued: “Yes, I don’t think that approach is wrong, I just think it’s possible to do that. In the era when the book was written, it belonged to the practice that the feudal big family can generally bear. The purpose is to show the strength of the family, but we It doesn't have to be that extravagant to recover now."

Su Jinrong nodded in agreement: "Well, it makes sense for you to say that. Indeed, we don't have to be so extravagant now."

Feng Yifan said, "So, according to the description in the book, it is necessary to taste like eggplant but not eggplant, or to change the taste, so that the eggplant has a meaty aroma, and the chicken fat and chicken are obviously Is very important, so I improved this version of the practice."

After hearing his son-in-law talked about his improvement process in detail, Su Jinrong nodded frequently.

Although I haven't tasted it yet, it really looks decent. And judging from the finished product fried by the son-in-law, the rich fragrance has aroused everyone's appetite, and it looks really mouth-watering.

Feng Yifan separated a bowl from the fried plate and said to Ning Cheng: "Take this bowl back and give it to your grandparents to taste it."

Ning Cheng slobbered quickly: "Well, thank you Uncle Yifan."

With such a delicacy in the book, other dishes naturally match very well.

Feng Yifan also specially made rouge goose breast, which was used to pair with such a dish of eggplant, which was regarded as a red house feast for his family at home for lunch.

If this matter is known, I am afraid it will attract the envy of many people.

It was almost noon, and Feng Ruoruo's cries rang out from the kitchen: "Grandpa, Dad, if Ruo is back, if today is so hot, if Ruo is so hungry, Dad, did you prepare the meal? Ruoruohe Grandpa, grandma, and mother are going to have a delicious meal."

Hearing the shouts of his daughter outside, Feng Yifan agreed in the kitchen: "Alright, alright, the food is ready, if you hurry up and wash your hands, you will be ready to start the meal immediately."

Dad responded to him, and Feng Ruoruo immediately shook off her grandma and took her hand, and ran into the kitchen quickly.

Feng Yifan saw his daughter running in, and asked with a smile, "If it's not hot? Why did you run into the kitchen?"

Feng Ruoruo leaned close to her father with a smile, and said mysteriously on her little face: "Dad, have you prepared anything for Ruoruo?"

Feng Yifan pretended not to understand, and asked, "What if you want Dad to prepare?"

Seeing his dad’s face that he didn’t understand Feng Ruoruo suddenly pursed her small mouth and said: "Dad, you promise Ruoruo. When Ruoruo comes back, you will prepare a cool, delicious food for Ruoruo. Fruit salad, but if you come back, it will be too hot, why have you forgotten it?"

Seeing her daughter's anxious look, Feng Yifan couldn't help but smile: "Hahaha, dad remembers, how could dad forget? The fruit salad for Ruoruo has been prepared for a long time, and I used well water for Ruoruo in the backyard. It's on ice."

Although his parents have a refrigerator at home, Feng Yifan still ices the fruit salad made for his daughter with well water.

The main reason is that the ice in the well water is not too cold, and it happens that my daughter can eat a little bit before meals to cool off.

Feng Ruoruo heard his father say this, and quickly turned around and ran out of the kitchen. The little girl shouted soon outside: "Grandma, Mom, and the fruit salad prepared by Dad for us is iced in the well water. Let's wash our hands and eat. After eating the cold fruit salad, we are eating."

Soon there was a burst of laughter in the backyard, with grandma, mother, and Feng Ruoruo.

The laughter floated in the house, filling the whole house with joy.
