After Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou confirmed the matter of the cooking exhibition, the dishes on the table were almost eaten up.
Zhou Shijie, who talked the most, ate the least this time. As soon as he lowered his head, there were only some leftover dishes left on the table.
"You little brat. You can't do anything in normal times, but you're really fast when it comes to eating." While saying that, Zhou Shijie directly patted Liu Tong's shoulder forcefully.
"Master, I didn't eat much." Liu Tong immediately complained.
"You ate all the dishes, you pig." Zhou Shijie pointed at the almost empty plates and bowls on the table and said.
"Uncle Zhou, I'm going to carry the shredded yam." Yuan Zhou said timely.
"Okay. Go ahead, Yuan." Zhou Shijie immediately said with a gentle voice, but then he turned his head and said to Liu Tong ferociously, "You can only eat one piece of the yam later. Not one more bite."
"…" Liu Tong was speechless.
The speed of his face changing is too fast. Liu Tong thought to himself, but he still showed a respectful look on his face and listened to Zhou Shijie's words seriously.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Yuan Zhou to carry a plate of shredded yam to him.
Liu Tong found that Yuan Zhou always liked to use a flat plate to carry the dishes. This time, it was another flat plate with a pile of yam cut into diamond shapes piled on it in a messy but orderly manner.
The yam itself was the color of white jade, but now it was wrapped with a layer of caramel-like brownish red. The sweet caramel color revealed the white jade color, which was very beautiful.
It was just that the sugar that was boiled until the caramel color tasted slightly bitter. Originally, it was also a flavor of caramel.
But the shredded yam dish was obviously not suitable. The shredded yam was the fusion of the original taste and sugar of an ingredient. Such a dish was usually served as a snack.
"Please enjoy your meal." Yuan Zhou set down the plate and said.
"Let me try it first." Liu Tong was curious. He couldn't help picking up the chopsticks and said.
"Only one piece." Zhou Shijie reminded him coldly at the side.
"Yes, master," Liu Tong answered helplessly. As expected, he only picked up a piece of shredded yam.
"Hiss." Liu Tong picked up the yam with his chopsticks. The seemingly distinct pieces of yam pulled out a long sparkling sugar thread.
Liu Tong's interest was piqued. He didn't break the sugar thread. He just stood up and moved back until the sugar thread was two or three meters away from him.
"It's really long," Liu Tong said.
"It's really long, but you have to eat all of it," Zhou Shijie said, stroking his goatee.
"Uh …" Liu Tong looked at the long sugar thread and felt helpless.
Although the sugar strands were very long, they weren't actually that long. After all, the sugar strands were as thin as silk threads. However, it didn't look good when eaten.
If there were only his master here, Liu Tong would not hesitate to ignore his image. He would even make a funny performance to make Zhou Shijie laugh.
However, when Liu Tong looked at Yuan Zhou, who was sitting opposite him with a straight back and a solemn expression, he was unwilling to do so.
Yuan Zhou was the person he wanted to surpass in the future. How could he not care about his image and even lose face in front of him?
However, Yuan Zhou added, "That's true. No wastage is allowed in the restaurant."
Then, Yuan Zhou completely blocked Liu Tong's way. Liu Tong had no choice but to eat the two or three meters long sugar thread step by step.
There was no need to mention the hardships that Liu Tong had experienced during that period. Anyway, Liu Tong decided that he would never do such a stupid thing again.
Obviously, Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou didn't care about Liu Tong's mental journey. Instead, they started to chat with the shredded yam again.
"It's sweet but not greasy. The crispness is accompanied by a soft glutinous powder. The taste and sweetness are just right. Yuan, your craftsmanship is still the same as before," Zhou Shijie said.
"No, I'm still not good enough at Shandong Cuisine. I'm just good at it." Yuan Zhou shook his head.
"You're just learning to cook. It's normal that you're not good enough. Take your time. With your talent, you don't need to worry at all." Zhou Shijie was speechless inwardly, but he still comforted him on the surface.
"I will practice more," Yuan Zhou answered earnestly.
"Good. Yuan, you have to work harder. In the future, our Chinese Cuisine will go to the international market." Zhou Shijie patted Yuan Zhou on his shoulder.
"I will." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
Liu Tong, who was listening to them at the side, nevertheless felt a toothache.
"If this is called good enough to be seen by others, then what am I doing? Am I not good enough to be seen by others or do I feed the pigs? "Liu Tong cursed inwardly but didn't dare to interrupt.
Fortunately, Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou didn't say much. They just ate up all the dishes on the table earnestly and then began to say goodbye.
"Thank you, Yuan, for the meal today," Zhou Shijie said.
"You are welcome." Yuan Zhou shook his head.
"Go and thank him." Seeing Liu Tong standing behind him, Zhou Shijie kicked him angrily.
"Yes, master." Liu Tong felt helpless again, but he still went up and prepared to thank him.
"Thank you, Boss Yuan, for your hospitality. Thank you very much." Liu Tong bowed and thanked him earnestly.
When Liu Tong said that, he was both willing and a little delighted. After all, he had learned several small skills secretly.
"I feel that my culinary skills can be improved again after I go back this time." Liu Tong said inwardly.
In the end, the clever Liu Tong followed Zhou Shijie and left with such a happy mood as if he were a mouse that had stolen oil.
When they walked to the side of Liu Tong's car in the garage, Zhou Shijie got angry when he saw his complacent manner. He couldn't help but kick him again and said, "What a good-for-nothing idiot."
Who was Zhou Shijie? He was Liu Tong's master who had taught him for more than ten years. Naturally, he knew Liu Tong very well. Judging from Liu Tong's manner, he knew Liu Tong didn't understand the meaning of today's meal at all.
Fortunately, Liu Tong had learned something. Otherwise, Zhou Shijie would have to consider whether his disciple had become stupid from learning to cook.
Liu Tong, who was kicked inexplicably, turned his head and said with a smile, "Master, you don't have to bother me. I can get in the car by myself."
"Get lost. After you send me back, get lost." Zhou Shijie showed a look of disgust.
"How can I do that? Wait for me a few days. I will cook some dishes for you to calm down," Liu Tong said with a smile.
"Humph." Zhou Shijie snorted coldly, but he didn't refuse him.
"Then, master, do you want me to send you back to the association or home?" Liu Tong turned his head and asked smilingly.
"Go back to the association. I haven't finished my work yet. Do you think everyone is as free as you?" When Zhou Shijie saw Liu Tong's mischievous manner, he couldn't help cursing.
"Master, you are cursing again. You will ruin your image," Liu Tong said.
"Go away. Let's go." Zhou Shijie realized something was wrong after he cursed, so he immediately waved his hand and said.
"Alright, master." Liu Tong turned his head and drove away.
Yuan Zhou naturally didn't know that Zhou Shijie despised Liu Tong again because of his excellence. Now, he was busy peeling the crabs.
Having washed up and changed his clothes again, Yuan Zhou prepared to practice how to peel out the crab meat for the last time today.
After all, he was going to cook the Crab Roe Big Steamed Bun tomorrow. And the most important thing for the Crab Roe Big Steamed Bun was to peel out the crab meat and crab roe.
"Tomorrow will be the 16th day," Yuan Zhou thought inwardly.
