"Yuan is really fast. Are you done already?" Zhou Shijie said with a smile.
"Yes. Because I haven't had lunch yet," Yuan Zhou said.
"As a chef, you should take good care of your body. You can only do business after lunch in the future," Zhou Shijie exhorted.
"That's usually the case. This time is an exception." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said.
"What dishes will Boss Yuan cook today?" Liu Tong craned his neck and looked at him curiously.
"Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat. Are you done asking?" Zhou Shijie turned his head and stared at Liu Tong discontentedly.
"Master, you brought me here just to have a meal." Liu Tong whispered furtively.
Of course, the whisper was so low that Yuan Zhou didn't hear it.
"This is a package sent from Old Ke. Where should I put it for you?" Zhou Shijie took a express delivery box from Liu Tong's hand and asked.
"Give it to me." Yuan Zhou took it and then turned around and put it on the shelf on the first floor of the pub in quick steps.
Yuan Zhou put the express delivery very fast. He couldn't let people wait for too long. He came out in less than three minutes.
In general, Yuan Zhou paid attention to some things. For example, when he was chatting with others online, he would definitely make it clear to the person he was chatting with that he had to leave the meeting.
After the matter was dealt with, Yuan Zhou would also send it back.
At that time, Liu Tong had already observed the whole courtyard.
"Does Boss Yuan also start to sell crabs?" Because he couldn't tell the truth, Liu Tong could only turn his head and look at the two big ponds at the side.
At a glance, he saw the big crabs that came out to bask in the sun.
"He hasn't started to sell them yet. He's just raising them." Yuan Zhou said.
"What kind of crabs are these? They look very good in color." As a top chef, Liu Tong naturally knew the quality of the ingredients.
The crabs had strong claws and the small claws climbed quickly. They were generally fat. The female crabs had a plump belly button and the male crabs had fat cheeks. Obviously, they were the top crabs with fat males and yellow females.
"Fragrance Crab. It's really good." Yuan Zhou said straightforwardly.
"Fragrance Crab? Aren't there no authentic ones now? "Liu Tong said in surprise.
"Mine is authentic," Yuan Zhou said lightly.
"This …" Liu Tong couldn't believe it, but thinking of Yuan Zhou's cooking skills, he didn't dare to show it. He could only look at the crab curiously and then at his master.
He hoped that Zhou Shijie could ask him a question and then answer his doubts.
"Enough. Don't stare at other people's ingredients as soon as you arrive. What did I ask you to come here for?" Obviously, Zhou Shijie didn't show off his Mind-Reading Ability. He dragged Liu Tong to the small table and sat down.
"…" Liu Tong had no choice but to follow them and sit down.
"Uncle Zhou, this is Liu Tong's treat. Today, I'm cooking several home-cooked dishes from Shandong Cuisine." Yuan Zhou reached out his hand and gestured.
"It's surprisingly Shandong Cuisine?" Liu Tong looked at the table curiously.
Sure enough, on the table were several classic dishes of Shandong cuisine, including the famous fried conch, steamed jiaji fish, and a crab race.
The last time Liu Tongcai personally made a crab race for Yuan Zhou was at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
"The fragrance is well contained. Good dishes," Zhou Shijie praised straightforwardly.
That's right. Although the dishes cooked by Yuan Zhou were steaming, the fragrance of the dishes didn't drift all over the courtyard. Instead, it was contained in the dishes and there was only a faint fragrance in the air.
That was also the reason why Liu Tong didn't find that Yuan Zhou cooked Shandong Cuisine at the beginning.
"There aren't many dishes. Finally, there's a snack, Shredded Yam. Serve it after eating," Yuan Zhou said.
"That's enough. It's just the three of us. Liu Tong, eat less." Zhou Shijie first nodded to Yuan Zhou amiably and then turned his head to warn Liu Tong fiercely.
Liu Tong looked at his master who could change his expression as fast as a Sichuan opera and felt helpless.
This was probably the legendary "no comparison, no harm".
After all, the attitude of Zhou Shijie toward him and toward Yuan Zhou was too different.
"Then let's start eating." Nevertheless, Yuan Zhou wasn't affected at all. He straightforwardly reached out his hand and said.
"Okay. I haven't even eaten breakfast yet. I'm just waiting for your meal, Yuan." Zhou Shijie picked up the chopsticks and said smilingly.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony, Boss Yuan." Liu Tong also raised the chopsticks and prepared to eat.
"Please enjoy." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
Liu Tong's first target was naturally the crab race that he had just made a few days ago. He wanted to see the difference between the crab race cooked by him and the one cooked by Yuan Zhou.
By the way, he wanted to see if there was any room for him to secretly learn from Yuan Zhou.
That's right. Liu Tong had never thought that he could make it better than Yuan Zhou.
He didn't come here just to eat as Zhou Shijie said. Liu Tong came here with the intention of secretly learning from Yuan Zhou.
After all, even if you didn't like Yuan Zhou's culinary skills, you couldn't deny his culinary skills either. Liu Tong couldn't bring himself to come here to eat by himself. However, it was different if he took his master's invitation and ate with him.
Liu Tong had already planned to taste the dishes carefully and carefully and see if there was anything that could be used by himself.
This was called absorbing the strengths of others.
Liu Tong felt that he was really a clever guy.
Looking at the crab race on the table again, Liu Tong felt that it was simply a pillow that came to him when he was sleepy and it didn't take him any effort at all. The same dishes were better and easier to compare.
Therefore, Liu Tong directly rushed to the crab race with his chopsticks.
Seeing Liu Tong like that, Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou looked at each other without saying anything and then began to eat seriously.
Liu Tong at the side had already stuffed a mouthful of the crab race into his mouth.
The purpose of the crab race was to stir-fry the delicious taste of the crab with non-crab ingredients. The most important main ingredients were yellow croaker and eggs.
This time, Yuan Zhou didn't use the ingredients provided by the system, but when Liu Tong put it in his mouth, he still found the difference between the crab race and the one he made.
The moment the crab race made by Yuan Zhou entered his mouth, because of the stimulation of the warm mouth, it immediately aroused a strong fragrance, like the fragrance of eggs that had just been put into the pot.
"Ba Ji Ba Ji" After chewing, he couldn't taste the taste of eggs at all. Instead, it was like the fat and tender crab meat that was removed from a well-steamed crab. With just a little chewing, the delicious and slightly sweet taste filled his mouth.
The soft and tender crab meat was smooth and tender when chewed, but there was no fishy smell of eggs at all. Even after eating and swallowing, the taste of crab roe remained in his mouth, as if he had really eaten crab meat with chopsticks.
Moreover, the crab meat was stir-fried with crab roe, which tasted extremely delicious.
"How could this be?" After eating a mouthful, Liu Tong couldn't believe it. After being stunned for a while, he picked up another mouthful and stuffed it into his mouth again.
The speed was very fast. Regardless of anything else, Liu Tong directly began to chew.
"It's delicious. It's so delicious. Why do I have the feeling of eating crab roe? Both the taste and the fragrance are genuine crab roe. Is it possible that crab roe has been added into it?" Liu Tong was puzzled and puzzled.
However, for the sake of his reputation as a chef, Liu Tong scratched his ears and cheeks inwardly, but didn't show any intention of asking.
At this time, Zhou Shijie said, "Yuan, the roe in the crab race is added ingeniously. I didn't expect that you had already made it after just a discussion last time."
"Yes, I experimented. I used the belly of the big yellow croaker, the spine meat of the small yellow croaker, and finally, the processed March roe to make this crab race. It's the best." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said.
"It's surprisingly a combination of two kinds of fish. Although the meat of the big yellow croaker is coarse, the belly is softer and more tender than the other parts and is fatter and more tender than that of the small yellow croaker. Although the meat of the small yellow croaker is tender, it lacks a trace of the fatness of the crab."
Liu Tong instantly understood the intention of Yuan Zhou to cook like this. After all, he was the apprentice of Zhou Shijie, so he could draw inferences about other cases from one instance.
"It seems that it's worthwhile to come here today." Liu Tong was secretly delighted. He ate the dishes indifferently on the surface, but in fact, he pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between Yuan Zhou and his master.
But later, Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou talked about the personal cooking exhibition.
