Yipin Chef

The most important thing is the dorsal fin. When selecting materials, the first choice is large and thick, and the fins are bright. "

While talking, let him identify the types and parts of shark fins. There are three pairs of dry fins in different sizes, ridge fins, and water fins.The unprocessed ones are called raw fins, also called hairy fins. According to the different rinsing water, the raw fins are divided into salt water fins and fresh water fins.The processed ones are called bright wings, also called golden flower wings, which are white and yellowish in color, transparent or translucent.

Jiale carefully recorded the shapes, colors, names and identification methods of various wings with a small pen and notebook.

"Shark's fin is a must-have dish for high-end banquets. For senior chefs, shark's fin is also a must. In a few days, the Zhao family in the county will celebrate the old lady's birthday and use shark's fin banquet. I will make it myself. Then you have to be careful. Watch."

A good set of shark fin requires at least 160 gold. Naturally, Jiale didn't have the opportunity to practice. He could only give it to the chef to see how he did it.

Jiale helped Sun Liang select the shark fins, steam them in a flat steamer until they were extremely rotten, and then use the ham to remove the claws, remove the dripping oil and bones, and remove the viscera and claws of chickens and ducks. To cook the stewed and steamed shark fin, it takes two days to cook it to taste.Before it was cooked and served on a plate, Sun Liang gave Jiale a chopstick to taste, and it was really delicious like never before.

When Jiale was studying hard, Ye Chengfeng was asking Lezhi to take his pulse at the old doctor's office. Lezhi twirled his beard after taking the pulse and said: "Your illness has not deteriorated, but there is no sign of improvement. Take a good rest and see Your body seems to be tired. Why are you disobedient?"

Ye Chengfeng smiled wryly: "Even if I recuperate at home and do nothing, how long can I live longer? And I still have a lot of things to do."

"Huh, what else do you have unfinished business? You have neither wife nor children. Your younger brother is also very capable and promising. It is absolutely no problem to support your mother in the elderly care. What else do you have to worry about?"

Ye Chengfeng did not answer, but sighed.

Le Zhi said: "To put it bluntly, you are paving the way for that servant of your family, right?"

"He is not my servant."

"Yes, he is your lover."

"That's not true." Ye Chengfeng was so anxious that his forehead burst into blue veins, "Don't think about it wrongly, I have nothing to do with him."

"Yes, you have nothing to do with him." Le Zhi followed his words and said in his heart: It's okay, you still have to support him to achieve his career, only a fool can't see it.

Ye Chengfeng didn't want to entangle this matter anymore, and asked directly: "How much time do you have?"

"It's either next year or the year after. If you want to support him as the number one royal chef in the world, you have to hurry up." Le Zhi always admired his demeanor when he saw his indifferent life and death.

"Whether he can be an imperial chef depends on his luck. I don't ask for it, as long as he can make some achievements according to his own ability. He has no talent in learning and has not laid a good foundation since he was a child. His physique is weak and he is not suitable for learning martial arts." Fortunately, he still has a skill to earn military merits, so even if he can't become rich and powerful, it is enough to start a family and start a career."

Although Ye Chengfeng was very calm and indifferent on the surface, he was still worried in his heart, he dragged his steps back home, and immediately saw Jia Le galloping over to greet him.The joy of anticipation on the face.

"Master has taught me how to make shark's fin, and will teach me how to make bear's paw and bird's nest in the future. I'm about to become a chef." Jia Le happily took his arm.

Ye Chengfeng trembled slightly, wanting to pull his arm out of his embrace, but finally he was reluctant, and let him hold it until the main room.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, and it's not suitable to open now, so I set the restaurant's opening date on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, you have to hurry up." Ye Chengfeng said lightly.

Jiale's face changed: "What? The restaurant opened on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, and there is not much time left, but I haven't learned well yet, and I still don't have the confidence to make big dishes."

"Stop rambling, don't say anything you don't have confidence in." Ye Chengfeng tugged at his ears, "If you dare to make money, I'll tear your ears off and sell you to a brothel to wash your stomach."

"Let go, I hate it." Jia Le covered his ears with a sad face, why did this guy set the time to open the restaurant so early, why is he in a hurry, it's not so easy to serve diners from all over the world, Ye Chengfeng is tricky and arrogant, anyway I also know his likes and dislikes and temperament, those tricky guests will overturn the table if they don't eat well, I'm afraid.

Ye Chengfeng knew what he was worried about, and said: "You don't have to be afraid, the house is almost finished, and I will find the workers. You just need to cook the dishes well. As for how to run the business, you have to learn slowly."

Before he could speak, Ye Chengfeng gave him a few banknotes, and said: "This is 1000 taels of silver, you go and pick out shark's fin, bird's nest, bear's paw and buy it for practice. Hurry up."

"Ah..." Jia Le was so shocked that he couldn't speak, he had never seen such a large banknote in his life, and it weighed as much as a thousand catties.

how so?If Ye Chengfeng wanted to open a restaurant to make money, he could just hire famous and skilled chefs, why would he let him, an unknown boy, pay such a high price for his master to buy raw materials for practice?

If you want him to make money, you can send him to other restaurants to make money, so it will be quicker, so why give him a dividend?Moreover, he is still in such a hurry to open a restaurant, he hasn't fully practiced his craft yet.

Before, he attributed Ye Chengfeng's weird behavior to uneasiness and good intentions, and came up with bad ideas to torment him, but now it is really difficult for him to stick to this idea.This person was kind to him quietly, and kind to him fiercely, like invisible and colorless water flowing down, and there was no way to refuse it.

In this world, the hardest thing to guess is the human heart.

"why?"

Ye Chengfeng said coldly: "No reason, you owe me so much money, you can't earn much money just by being a servant in my house, and your ability can only make money from cooking skills, if you don't open a restaurant, you can't make much money Where can I make money and pay it back to me?"

Jia Le scratched his head, a little understanding, but a little not quite understanding, a hazy feeling in his heart seemed to gradually become clear, and it was the day when he floated to the surface of the water and saw the sun.

Ye Chengfeng assigned him work: "Hurry up and practice on weekdays. When you have time, go to the newly built restaurant to see what else is needed. You must go to bed before the second watch every night. If you burn the house again, I won't screw it up." Drop your ears."

Jia Le glared at him, wanted to go back to the kitchen to practice but was reluctant to leave him, dawdled by his side, secretly put her hand on his hand, and gently scratched the back of his hand with her fingers.

Ye Chengfeng's heart was pounding, he suppressed it forcibly and said with a cold face: "Aren't you going soon?"

"It's still early." Jia Le sat down beside him and said something, "Tell me what the restaurant looks like."

"You'll know if you go and see for yourself."

"I want to hear from you."

"The signboard of the restaurant has already been erected. It is called Luming Tower. The flowers, plants and trees will not be available until the spring of next year. The decorations, curtains and curtains of the restaurant are all there, only a few paintings are missing."

Jia Le rolled his eyes, and there was a hint of cunning in his eyes, and said, "Isn't Young Master Ye the leading calligrapher and painter in the province? I want to hang Young Master Ye's paintings in the restaurant. I like your paintings."

"Oh?" Ye Chengfeng smiled, "You like my paintings, what do you want?"

"In ancient times, there was a feast of deer singing in the imperial court. Now the Ye family's restaurant is called Lu Ming Lou, so let's hang pictures of deer in the room."

"good idea."

"I knew the young master liked it too, so you can draw ten thousand deer."

"Ah..." Ye Chengfeng was so startled that he almost choked on his saliva. Seeing the slyness flashing across Jiale's face, he understood a little bit. This guy looks obedient and obedient these days, but in fact he still has hatred in his heart. This time, I took the opportunity to pose a problem to him, to make him look good.

Afraid that he would refuse, Jia Le got up immediately and said, "I'll tell everyone that the painter Ye Da wants to paint [-] deer to add color to the Luming Tower. You can paint right away, the opening will be opened on the [-]th."

Ye Chengfeng smiled slightly as he watched his back in a hurry.

This guy, who can't wait to tell everyone about it, can't make him refuse, and he won't be able to draw [-] deer to embarrass himself in front of people.

However, Ye Chengfeng, as a well-known painter in Miryang County, even the whole province and the whole country, how could he let such a problem be difficult?

The author has something to say: "The flowing water has no shape, the blowing wind can't find a trace, and the black mystery will always be cleared..."

I remember these two sentences correctly this time, right?

41. Restaurant opening...

Two days before the opening, Ye Chengfeng took the painting to Luming Building and hung it on the front wall, but he didn't open it for people to see. Instead, he wrapped it with a piece of precious two-color woven golden cloud brocade, saying that he would not reveal it until the opening day. open.The news that Master Ye wants to paint [-] deer has spread throughout the city, and people are curiously discussing it. Seeing his pretentiousness, they can't hold back their interest even more.

Ye Chengfeng looked at Jia Le scratching his ears and cheeks like a monkey, and kept looking at the cloud brocade, knowing that he was itching, so he smiled secretly, pretending not to know, took his hand and said, "Today is a good time to enjoy the lanterns." Days, you are bored in Zhuangzi and learning how to cook is really hard, let you have a day off today, let's have a good time."

Jia Le reluctantly glanced at Yun Jin who was painting again, and was obediently dragged by him to look at the lamp.

The lights of Miryang City are not as good as the provincial capital, nor the capital city, but it is also very lively. Looking down from the city tower, several main streets are decorated with lights, like two fire dragons winding and circling, reflecting the moonlight in the sky , It's really bright and full of light and moonlight.

Ye Chengfeng dragged Jiale down the city tower, and went to the busiest Golden Lantern Bridge. There were thousands of colorful lights on both sides of the street. It attracted many people to stop and watch.

Jia Le has been practicing cooking in the Zhuangzi for a long time, and he is also bored. In addition, he has a lively temperament and loves to play. He is naturally very happy to see so many interesting things.Ye Cheng
