There was nothing to say about this, so Chen Weidong immediately chose to activate it.
"Ding!~"
[Task Tips]: You have triggered the chef career task [Support the Young Lady], the difficulty level of the task is [c]. If completed, you will be rewarded with 10,000 experience points, 2 attribute points, and 1 skill point.
Looking at the name of the task, Chen Weidong couldn't help but feel a pain in his balls...
Girl, since you are supporting the eldest lady, you have no choice in the direction. You must help the eldest lady to the end. However, with Cheng Yu's level of cooking skills, she is no match at all, so how should she support her?
As his thoughts emerged, a line of yellow characters also appeared.
[Tips]: In view of the gap in life and career levels between the two parties, we have selected a "must-kill recipe" for you. Please read it carefully and prepare it carefully. Success or failure depends on this.
Chen Weidong thought for a moment and clicked on the so-called "must-have recipe".
It turned out that what the system prepared for him was a dish of sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus root.
Chen Weidong has made this dish before. When he was a soldier in the army, the squad leader of the cooking class was from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. He taught him many Jiangnan dishes, including osmanthus and lotus root.
This dish is also called sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root, or honey-glazed glutinous rice lotus root. It is one of the traditional famous dishes of the Han people in the Jiangnan area.
Glutinous rice filled with lotus roots, carefully prepared with osmanthus sauce and red dates. It is soft, sweet and has an excellent taste. It is definitely a unique Chinese dessert in the traditional Jiangnan cuisine. It is known for its sweetness, crispness and rich osmanthus aroma.
Enjoy word of mouth.
It is said that the lotus roots from West Lake are the best among lotus roots. The ingredients for this dish are naturally the best from there.
However, Chen Weidong is now in Luo'an, so of course he can't get materials locally, so he can only make do with it first.
Fortunately, he has skills and system help, so he should be able to make up for it.
After thinking about what to do, Chen Weidong couldn't help but smile slightly.
To be honest, this dish is really suitable for him, because this dish requires knife skills, and the system has made some changes in the recipes to further upgrade the requirements for knife skills.
If another chef were to do it, he might not be able to handle it, but Chen Weidong...hehe, he wished he could.
You know, this guy's knife skills are beyond the imagination of ordinary chefs - in addition to practicing on the chopping board, he also has sharp knife skills honed in life-and-death fights, which are absolutely unmatched by ordinary people!
Therefore, it is most suitable for him to cook this dish. The details will have to be verified later with facts.
Chen Weidong is not a person who likes to brag about 13, so he didn't say anything for now. He just promised the eldest lady that he would work hard and not be blamed for success or failure.
"Yeah, you'll be fine. I believe in you!~" Zhu Yunxin clenched her fists and cheered him up. Her beautiful eyes were full of encouragement.
To be honest, Miss Zhu looks quite womanly at this time, much more comfortable than usual. It would be great if she could stay like this.
Someone was thinking about something unrealistic. Over there, Cheng Yu had been fiddling with it for a long time and was almost finished.
What she makes is a three-shrimp tofu dish, which is also one of the famous Zhejiang dishes and is very delicious.
Chen Weidong can also cook this dish, but when he saw this skill, he immediately nodded obediently and sighed to himself.
It must be said that Mr. Cheng is indeed a virtuous and kind-hearted person. Whether he is in charge of the company or housework, his combat effectiveness is off the charts. In short, he is great at everything he does!
This three-shrimp tofu came out of her hand. No need to eat it. Just smelling it made her whole body feel refreshed. The taste buds on her tongue were already ready to activate. After a while, her mouth was already filled with saliva.
Is this the legendary woman who "can handle both the hall and the kitchen"? She is indeed amazing!
Someone was secretly praising in his mind, over there Cheng Yu has finished the work and is taking it out of the pot.
Aunt Li was very discerning and immediately went to help. Cheng Yu also smiled and untied her apron, walked over and hung it on the wall.
A dish of freshly cooked three-shrimp tofu was brought to the table. Chen Weidong, a foodie, was already very greedy and couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks and devour the dish.
Seeing this, Cheng Yu couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Chen is probably hungry, right? Come and try my dish. If it's not done well, please give me some advice."
"Don't." Chen Weidong quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, you are laughing at me. Your cooking skills are much better than mine. How dare I give you random instructions? Aren't you making people laugh?"
"Mr. Chen, you are so humble." Cheng Yu covered her mouth and smiled softly, her eyes turned into crescent moons - I have to say that this woman's smile is really beautiful, and she has a kind of enchanting magic that makes men involuntarily.
Falling for it.
No wonder...no wonder rich and wealthy people like Lao Zhu, who have won gold medals, fell on their knees under her pomegranate skirt. This woman really has two skills!
After Cheng Yu laughed a few times, he sighed again and said: "To tell you the truth, when I was at home, I really wanted to find out Yun Xin's taste so that I could cook some dishes that would suit her taste.
She was happy for a while, but in the end she still didn’t succeed.”
"Uh, this..." Chen Weidong was a little dumbfounded when he heard this.
This woman is obviously pretending to be confused. The eldest lady hates her so much that even if she tries to act like a dragon, it won't work...
"Perhaps my cooking skills are not good enough? Mr. Chen, since you can make Yun Xin so satisfied, your cooking skills must be far superior to mine, um... No, I will ask you for advice today.
.”
As Cheng Yu said this, he cupped his hands towards Chen Weidong.
"I don't dare, I don't dare, I still want to ask Mr. Cheng to give me some advice." Chen Weidong quickly returned the courtesy.
These two people were so polite that they made Zhu Yunxin stare at them.
She hates this woman the most, and rarely talks to her. If anyone talks too much to that woman, she will look down upon her, and may even think of ways to retaliate against them.
What Chen Weidong did just now has already violated a red line.
However, now that Miss Zhu wants something from this guy, she doesn't dare to brag about it and glare at him. She can only endure it for now and wait until there is no one around to talk to him properly!
"Mr. Chen, please." Cheng Yu cupped his hands and smiled.
"Okay, Mr. Cheng, please sit down first, have some tea and give me some time." Chen Weidong rolled up his sleeves and put on his apron again.
This time, he was going to make sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus root, so he had to work hard, otherwise he would fail accidentally.
If the mission fails, it is a trivial matter not to give experience and attribute points, because I am afraid that the upgrade of life and career will be affected.
You know, there are so many professions in life that it is difficult to practice them all. Chen Weidong is usually so busy, how can he have the opportunity to practice cooking?
Looking at other professions in life, almost all of them were upgraded based on the professional tasks they received by chance. This was more worry-free, labor-saving, and fast, and it was the only way he could choose.
Therefore, this mission cannot fail and must succeed!
Chen Weidong took a deep breath, opened the freezer, started selecting materials and cleaning.
According to the recipe, after washing the glutinous rice, it needs to be soaked for about an hour.
Time is tight now, and everyone in the room is waiting to see it. Chen Weidong didn't have the time to spend so much time, so he went directly to the system mall to buy it.
After he bought it, he deliberately blocked the basket with his body, and while no one was paying attention, he instantly poured the original rice into the sub-dimensional space of his belt, and then stuffed a pack of newly purchased finished products into it.
With his hand speed, it was impossible for others to see his movements clearly, so this level was considered a near miss.
After getting the ingredients, he followed the steps step by step.
First, peel the fresh lotus root and wash it.
Then, pick up a kitchen knife and cut one end of the fresh lotus root diagonally, leaving the tip first.
The third step is to pour the glutinous rice into the lotus root hole of the incision.
Step 4: After filling, cover the cut lotus root tip on the original incision and fix it with toothpicks.
Step 5: Place the lotus root in a pot, add baking soda, add water and cook over high heat, remove and pour out the baking soda water.
Step 6: Put the original pot on the fire, add water, sugar, sugar-osmanthus, put in the lotus roots and bring to a boil, then turn to medium heat and cook until the lotus roots are crispy, then take out the lotus roots.
Step 6: Let cool and then cut into slices and serve on a plate.
This step is the most critical. Whether the dish is done well or not depends on this.
Chen Weidong picked up the kitchen knife, patiently counted the time, and prepared to slice it.
There is a key point to note here: after cooking, the lotus root cannot be cut when it is hot, as it will break easily, and it cannot be cut after it is completely cold, as it will not taste good.
Therefore, after taking out the lotus root, let it dry for a while until it is no longer hot to the touch before cutting it into slices. If you eat it while it is hot, it will be the most fragrant and glutinous.
Chen Weidong has a system timer to help him know when to cut. It can be accurate to the point of being measured in seconds. It is simply shameless!
He read the seconds, and when the time was up, he immediately started slicing.
The knife used to cut the lotus root must be thin enough and fast enough, and the cutting action must be neat, one knife at a time, and must not be sloppy, otherwise, the glutinous rice in the lotus root holes will be brought out by the knife.
This is the reason why this dish requires more knife skills.
Chen Weidong held the kitchen knife and cut it with a click. His movements were so fast that he could hardly see it with the naked eye!
If there was a camera filming nearby at this time, and technical means were used to slow down his movements, you would be surprised to find that this guy's knife never fell on Ou Root from the beginning to the end!
What the hell is going on!?
In fact, someone just used a little trick: knife energy.
For a master of ancient martial arts like him, swords, qi, swords, and the like are all out of the question. While they are useful for cutting people when facing enemies, they are equally useful for chopping vegetables when cooking.
Especially for this dish, the skill of the knife is very important. Chen Weidong uses an air knife, which undoubtedly meets the standard!
No other knife, no matter how thin and sharp it is, can't be as good as the Qi knife, right? Chen Weidong directly compressed the Gang Qi beam to be thinner than a hair, and cut it with a "click", and it was impossible to bring out even a little bit of glutinous rice!
