Chapter 71 Introducing Yourself
"It's a great honor to meet all the chefs from Xiangyun Restaurant tonight. I'm Xu Yang, and I'm also the chef who cooks Mapo Tofu."
After speaking, he introduced Zhang Yang and said, "This is my deputy Zhang Yang."
With the self-introduction, Xu Yang's identity was officially announced.
As the head chef of Xiangyun Restaurant, Liu Wenke was surprised.
Sichuan chef Zhou Zhe was surprised.
Sichuan sous chef Pan Lin was surprised.
The remaining two were equally surprised, including Wu Yongfei who had already guessed Xu Yang's identity.
After all, it was speculation just now, and it has not been confirmed, so I have some doubts in my heart.
Following Xu Yang's introduction, it was obvious that it was true, but he was still very surprised.
When they came, they wanted to meet the chef who made Mapo Tofu, to see who it was, and to get Zhao Leijun's generous compliment.
No one expected such a result in the end.
It was Liu Wenke who reacted first and circled around Xu Yang twice.
Finally, he shook his head and said, "At this moment, I don't think Lao Zhao will lie to us in this matter. Lying will not do him any good or benefit the entire hotel. You have to admit it if you don't admit it."
"It's really a hero born out of a boy. He can cook top-level food at the age of 24. I have never tasted what mapo tofu looks like. Judging from Lao Zhao's performance, it must be extraordinary."
"Thank you, Chef Liu, for your compliment. It's not that a hero is born as a teenager, it's just that he has a talent in cooking and grows up fast. Apart from that, he has no other pride."
Liu Wenke shook his head; "I have always believed that talent and hard work are both ways to improve your cooking skills. There is no difference between the two. The final goal is to make your cooking skills better."
Xu Yang didn't expect him to have such an idea.
It's like the saying that luck is also a part of strength.
Not everyone has luck, but they can also prove their own strength.
"However, having said so much, we should see the truth in cooking."
"Old Liu, you are right. You will only know what kind of dishes you can make after tasting them."
Liu Wenke thought for a while and said: "I just said that if I guess wrong, I will reduce the reviews of three dishes. If I guess wrong twice, I am willing to admit defeat."
"Old Liu, which three dishes are you going to choose, let me show you the menu?"
Zhao Leijun would not miss the opportunity to reduce the three dishes and be polite.
Directly find the menu for him to see.
"I remember you said before that the chef will cook three dishes tonight, that is, Xu Yang. I want to know what each dish is."
Xu Yang took a step forward and said, "Chef Liu, the cold dish husband and wife's lung slices and the hot dish fish-flavored shredded pork and twice-cooked pork."
Liu Wenke nodded and said, "Old Zhao, let's do this. It happens that Xu Yang has three dishes, so I will choose these three dishes, but there is only one requirement."
"What request, you say."
"Let Xu Yang cook first."
Zhao Leijun shook his head and said, "It's okay to let Xu Yang make the couple's lung slices first, but according to the order, the cold dishes should be served first, so after cooking the couple's lung slices and tasting them, Master Cai Yuan will make the next cold dish first, and then wait until the cold dishes Once everything is done, we can start from Xu Yang."
The order that should be there must not be changed, and the other ones can be changed.
The main reason is that when the dish is cooked and served, it is arranged in advance.
"It's okay, since you've come to the kitchen, you don't have to cook in the order you ordered in advance. Anyway, Xu Yang's three dishes don't make comments, so let's taste the taste first."
Liu Wenke seemed determined to try Xu Yang's dishes first.
It is estimated that I want to taste it, whether the taste of the cooked dishes is as good as it is said.
There is no mapo tofu, and there are other dishes, which also say that the taste is very good, and I want to verify it.
Speaking of this, Zhao Leijun couldn't refuse.
"Xu Yang, Master Cai, how about changing the order of cooking?"
"I'm fine." Cai Yuan was the first to answer.
"Me too." Cai Yunsong continued to express his attitude.
When it was Xu Yang's turn, he spread his hands and said, "Of course I'm fine."
Seeing that all three agreed, Zhao Leijun said to Liu Wenke: "Then, let's start with Xu Yang."
After everything was settled, Xu Yang returned to the stove and was ready to start.
"Chef, I'm ready here."
"Okay, let's get started."
The first dish Xu Yang made was Husband and wife lung slices.
All the ingredients were prepared in advance in the afternoon.
The next steps to do are simple.
Slice the ingredients, prepare the sauce, and mix well before serving.
Bringing the pre-cooked beef offal, Xu Yang began to slice it.
He is now a two-star chef, and he has improved his knife skills, so he quickly cut up all the beef offal and put it aside for later use.
Next is to prepare the mix.
In a clean bowl, put a little salt, sugar, pepper powder, soy sauce, red oil chili, and stir well.
Then put the chopped ingredients into the bowl and stir again.
After mixing well, put it on the plate according to the standard way, and finally pour the sauce.
Put the prepared celery segments, sesame seeds and crushed peanuts, and serve a dish of husband and wife lung slices.
"Husband and wife lung slices have been made, please cook."
Looking at the dish on the table, everyone's eyes were attracted.
The original tasteless ingredients, under Xu Yang's simple preparation, suddenly became full of aroma.
At this time, Tian Mingzheng was very surprised and said: "Xu Yang, this couple's lung slices seem to be very different from what you made before. It seems to have improved a lot."
Xu Yang felt that there was no need to hide it.
He nodded and said, "Yes, it should be said that on the basis of the original, it has greatly improved in terms of color, appearance and taste."
"Really?"
"real."
Tian Mingzheng exclaimed suddenly.
Others don't know, but he has tasted the couple's lung slices made by Xu Yang.
The original taste is already very good, but now it has improved a lot, the taste is unimaginable.
"Xu Yang, what kind of situation is the improvement of this dish?"
After learning that there is indeed an improvement, I want to know how much it has improved.
Xu Yang thought for a while: "If it could be compared with the fish-flavored shredded pork, now it can only be compared with the mapo tofu I cook."
"Really?"
After finishing speaking, Zhao Leijun was very surprised.
He knew what Mapo Tofu tasted like, but he had never heard that Xu Yang's Husband's Fei Pieces could meet that standard.
I didn't expect to hear this sentence suddenly.
"Chef, of course it's true. The taste of the dishes I cook is very clear."
In fact, Xu Yang has never tasted the real five-star couple's lung slices, so he really doesn't know what it tastes like.
Based on the understanding of the system, five-star dishes naturally have a corresponding taste.
"It's unbelievable. I never heard that your cooking has improved." Zhao Leijun was still surprised.
"Chef, I didn't have time to do it well before. I just had time this afternoon. It's not considered an improvement. It can only be said that it has achieved the taste it should have."
Zhao Leijun nodded.
Then he looked at the others.
"Although I haven't had the chance to taste Xu Yang's Mapo Tofu, according to Xu Yang's own statement, this dish is on the same level as Mapo Tofu. Please try it."
