Chef Fang's prejudice against Song Yutong is too deep, and his prejudice against women is also too deep.
"Why don't you give her a chance to try, in case she really knows how to do it?" Mr. Wen encouraged from the side.
"After all, you are the wife of a hunter. You are so picky about the ingredients. Several hunters who cooperated with the restaurant were angry with you. It means that the hunter is willing to bring the prey according to your standards. You should pay as much as you want.
Save your face."
Chef Fang's expression turned particularly ugly when he heard Mr. Wen's words, but what Mr. Wen said was not unreasonable.
"Huh!" Chef Fang snorted coldly and went back to the kitchen without saying yes or no.
Mr. Wen knew this and relaxed.
He turned his head and immediately gave Song Yutong a look. Seeing that Song Yutong didn't understand, he said.
"Why are you still standing there? Go, go, go."
When Song Yutong saw the drama, she secretly swore that Chef Fang would be impressed by her.
Seeing Song Yutong's confident look, Cheng Hanyan was not sure whether she really knew how to cook that famous palace dish.
It's just that I feel more and more like the woman in front of me is a different person than before.
Looking at Song Yutong's leaving figure, Cheng Hanyan just hoped that she would never change back.
Even though Song Yutong now is not the same person as before.
Song Yutong didn't know that she had exposed too much, which made Cheng Hanyan aware and even suspicious of her.
She walked into the kitchen, and Mr. Wen and the shopkeeper also came in.
"Can I use all the ingredients here?"
Song Yutong was still frightened by Chef Fang's fierce performance just now.
"Okay, okay, just cook that famous palace dish." Mr. Wen said with a smile. No matter how you look at it, you feel that this man is a smiling tiger, and he is far from being as simple as he seems.
"That's no problem, but I'll also add pan-fried tofu."
Song Yutong never forgot that she still had systems and tasks to complete.
When the shopkeeper heard what she said, he felt that Mrs. Cheng was overreaching.
Just when I was about to refuse, I heard Mr. Wen nodding in agreement, and I suddenly felt uncomfortable.
As a shopkeeper, he has a pitifully low voice in this restaurant, and he cannot afford to offend anyone.
After hearing Mr. Wen's words, Song Yutong did not take action immediately. Instead, she set her sights on the shopkeeper, as if seeking his opinion.
Also by doing this, the shopkeeper's anger subsided a lot.
This woman knows how to behave!
Seeing that the shopkeeper had no objections, Song Yutong began to pick out the ingredients needed to make Kung Pao Chicken and Pan-fried Tofu.
Then I started to check the seasonings to be used. This skillful way of doing it makes you look like a veteran who is used to it.
On the other hand, Mr. Wen and the shopkeeper both had vague expectations for her.
Song Yutong checked the ingredients and found that there was no seasoning she wanted. She pretended to go out, took out her own baggage from a small basket carried by Naituanzi and walked in.
Inside this baggage are the seasonings she brought out from the system space.
Song Yutong walked to the stove and laid out all the seasonings she had brought.
Then pick up a prepared chicken from a basin, find the tenderest chicken breast and cut it off.
She found another soup bowl, put in a spoonful of soy sauce, a spoonful of vinegar, a spoonful of sugar and her own starch, then added an appropriate amount of water to make a sauce, then marinated the chicken breasts in the juice for two quarters of an hour.
.
Chef Fang saw her cooking like this and jumped out to ridicule her.
"Some people think that by adding all the seasonings to raw meat, the dish will cook on its own? That's not what you did with Kung Pao Chicken. You are insulting this famous palace dish."
Song Yutong's appearance when cooking is completely different from usual, as if she has become a different person, calm, composed and powerful.
She uses a modern method to make Kung Pao Chicken, which is naturally different from the ancient method.
"This method is called marinating, and it can make the chicken breast more flavorful and tender."
Song Yutong not only ignored Chef Fang's shouting, but also took the initiative to explain to Chef Fang who didn't understand, and didn't mind his misunderstanding at all.
It is precisely Song Yutong's approach that highlights Chef Fang's narrow-mindedness.
Since it took two and a quarter of hours to marinate the chicken breast, Song Yutong immediately went to the shopkeeper and ordered two pieces of tofu, cut into evenly sized shapes.
Take out an egg, beat it and pour it on the tofu, heat the oil over high heat, first put the tofu in and fry until both sides are golden brown, then take it out.
Add oil, put down the chopped onions and garlic, take out the newly obtained millet peppers and add them together to release the aroma.
Then add a handful of Chinese cabbage (baby cabbage) that has been washed and cut into sections and stir-fry until half cooked, then add the tofu.
Get a bowl, add half a bowl of water, add salt, soy sauce, chicken essence, cumin and pepper and other seasonings, stir evenly, pour it into the pot, and reduce the juice over low heat.
A pan-fried tofu is ready.
The spicy and tempting smell comes out, making people's mouth water as soon as they smell it, and they want to try it very much.
Song Yutong put the dishes next to the clean stove.
"You can have a taste of this now."
As she said that, she immediately started to cut onions and ginger for later use. She searched around the kitchen and couldn't find the cucumber she wanted, so she had to find white radish and carrots instead.
Cut the carrots and white radish into cubes. After these preparations are made, heat the oil in the pot.
The shopkeeper and Mr. Wen wanted to try it immediately to see if the appetizing pan-fried tofu was delicious.
Is Mrs. Cheng’s cooking skills really good?
But just when the two of them wanted to get chopsticks, they were stopped by Chef Fang.
"Wait until she's done."
The shopkeeper and Mr. Wen looked at each other for a while, and both chose to listen to Chef Fang. After all, it was his concession that gave Song Yutong a chance, and they had to give Chef Fang some thin noodles.
But the spicy and tangy smell penetrated all the way to the tip of their noses, and the two of them were really scratching their heads when they looked at the dish.
Song Yutong was not affected by this. After waiting for a while, she stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the oil, then took a pair of chopsticks and put them in the oil to see how boiling it was.
When the oil is seven levels hot, add the marinated diced chicken, smooth it out and take it out.
Drain the excess oil, leave oil at the bottom of the pot, add millet pepper, garlic and ginger slices, stir-fry until fragrant. Then add carrots, white radish and diced chicken, and add some peanut flakes.
At the end, add the chicken breast marinade sauce, reduce the juice over high heat, and serve on a plate.
The aroma of Kung Pao Chicken emanated, and Chef Fang, who had never looked at Song Yutong directly, had a crack in the disdainful expression on his face at this moment.
Although the Kung Pao Chicken she makes is somewhat similar to what her master makes, it doesn't mean it's delicious.
