Chapter 338 [Childhood Memories] Side mission completed

The production of Jiangfeng crispy apples quickly reached the step of frying them in oil.

Since Jiang Feng's heat and seasoning skills have reached the master level, many cooking methods that he was not good at or were unfamiliar with have become more comfortable, such as deep-frying.

This method of cooking in which food is immersed in high-temperature oil to quickly mature and become fragrant and crispy. It is extremely difficult to find the critical point that ensures that the food moisture is not excessively lost while still making it crispy. , success, excellence, perfection, the gap between these three is just a few breaths.

In the past, Jiang Feng could only achieve success at most, and was still far away from excellence. But since the heat and seasoning have reached the master level, not only excellence has become no longer out of reach, but even perfection seems to be just a stepping stone. You can touch the border.

The more he practiced and tried, the more clearly Jiang Feng could feel the huge gap between the advanced and master levels in the system rating.

Taking the 100-point math test as an example, the elementary level only requires candidates to pass, the intermediate level requires candidates to score 80 points, and the advanced level requires candidates to score 90 points. But at the master level, candidates are not only required to score 95 points, but the questions are also changed from middle school mathematics to advanced mathematics.

There is a huge gap, whoever tries will know.

Along with the crackling sound and splashing oil spots, the unique aroma of food fried at high temperature begins to emanate from the oil pan. The alluring aroma of apples, eggs, and flour emitted through the Maillard reaction after the three were mixed together made Jiang Feng feel like he was back at the New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve, when Grandma Jiang served the crispy apples. That moment.

At the same time, he also thought that because Jiang Shoucheng bumped into him when he got up, he didn't get to eat this year's crispy apples.

The crispy apples made by the old man himself once a year are only available for New Year’s Eve dinner and are specially served in winter.

He was knocked out by Jiang Shoucheng's heavy collision.

Just thinking about it this way, Jiang Feng couldn't help but feel a trace of indelible resentment when he was fishing out the apples from the frying pan.

Get out of the pot!

【A delicious crispy apple】

The evaluations given by Jiang Feng's current cooking appraisals are basically excellent in taste, and occasionally when the food fails or overturns, it will be of high quality.

Looking at the crispy apple in front of him, Jiang Feng felt a little proud.

He should be the best person in the Jiang family at making crispy apples now, except for the old man.

Currently, his cooking skills are at the same level as his, and Comrade Jiang Jiankang, who has more than 20 years of cooking experience than him, has been selectively ignored by him.

"Try it, the crispy apples taste best when they are fresh out of the pot." Jiang Feng said to Zhang Guanghang.

Zhang Guanghang went to get chopsticks.

"Have you really never eaten this dish before?" Jiang Feng asked.

Now that the crispy apples are out of the pot, they are placed in front of Zhang Guanghang. With Xia Mubing's cooking skills, he can definitely make the crispy apples crispy and sweet, which will please the children. With such a dish that can definitely become synonymous with deliciousness and beauty in a child’s childhood memory, it’s impossible for Zhang Guanghang not to have any impression of it.

"I've never eaten it before." Zhang Guanghang said with determination, "I've never eaten food like this."

As he spoke, Zhang Guanghang stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of crispy apple.

Entrance.

Jiang Feng was standing next to him, and he could clearly feel the surprise that burst out from Zhang Guanghang the moment he entered the apple.

It is the surprise of a child finding a long-lost toy, an adult recalling the beautiful memories of childhood, and an elderly person having a wonderful past together.

chew.

"Click, click."

Zhang Guanghang said nothing and picked up another piece of crispy apple.

"Click, click."

He was silent like this, one piece after another, one bite after another. There was no extra expression on his face, it could only be seen that his mouth was chewing non-stop. His eyes were shining, and he looked at the crispy apples in front of him as if he were looking at a plate of rare treasures.

"Crack, click, click."

"Crack, click, click."

Just like that, Zhang Guanghang swallowed half a plate of crispy apples in just a moment.

He took a breath, as if to recall the taste he just tasted, or maybe he felt that everything he just tasted was not so real. When the taste of childhood hidden deep in the memory reappears in one's taste buds, everyone will have an unreal sense of hope, and may even wonder if there is something wrong with their tongue.

"How did you know?" The expression on Zhang Guanghang's face was filled with shock, surprise, confusion, happiness and a hint of satisfaction. It was complex enough for someone to write a short essay or write a reading comprehension article.

Zhang Guanghang was not a fool. He didn't believe that Jiang Feng wanted to make crispy apples for him on a whim or a flash of inspiration. He felt that Jiang Feng must have guessed that the key to the Chinese saffron chicken he wanted to restore was crispy apples.

But he couldn't figure out how Jiang Feng knew all this. After all, even he, the client, didn't know it. An outsider like Jiang Feng didn't have the ability to read minds or pry into his memory. How did he know that the key to saffron chicken was actually crispy apples?

"After I saw the chicken saffron you made that day, I went back to check how to make saffron chicken. These days, I read your cooking method again and tasted the chicken saffron you made. Although I don't know you What’s the taste of saffron chicken you’re craving these days? Just say you think something is missing, not that you think the taste is wrong, so I'm thinking that the taste you want is not in the chicken, but in the other side dishes." Jiang Feng began to use his advanced lie. Charm, tell lies with your eyes open.

"The garnish for chicken saffron is actually very simple, just some vegetables and apples mixed with butter. I can't think of any new uses for those vegetables, but I know that in addition to making fruit salad, apples can also be used to make crispy apples. "My family will definitely have this dish on the New Year's Eve dinner every year," Jiang Feng said slowly, "Crispy apples are a royal dish and were once a dessert in the Manchu and Han banquets. My grandfather knows it, so I guess Mr. Xia must also. Yes.”

"Originally, I just wanted to ask you this morning, or remind you, but you actually told me that you had never eaten crispy apples, let alone heard the name. At that time, I felt a little strange. Crispy Apples It is a very unique dessert, and it is also a palace Dishes, Mr. Xia will never fail to teach you. Just recently, a friend of mine told me that when he wanted to eat some more Western dishes when he was a child, his grandma would make some similar-looking dishes using Chinese methods. To fool him.”

"So... I think, of course, this is just my opinion, maybe Mr. Xia cooked the saffron chicken in the Chinese way, and casually made the apples in it using the method of making crispy apples to fool you. Mr. Xia He didn’t want you to find out that he was actually fooling you, so he never taught you how to cook it, nor did he tell you that the apple was actually a crispy apple.”

There was a crack in the expression on Zhang Guanghang's face.

If he had to use one word to describe his mood at this moment, it would probably be disillusionment.

The truth behind the infinitely beautiful childhood memories turned out to be that the master was fooling himself.

Zhang Guanghang fell into silence.

After a long time, he said: "Jiang Feng, can you teach me how to make crispy apples?"

"Of course! This dish is very simple. As long as you have good cooking skills, you can learn it as soon as you get started." This is what Jiang Feng was waiting for.

If Zhang Guanghang didn't learn from him, he wouldn't be able to restore the saffron chicken in his memory, and if he didn't restore the saffron chicken in his memory, he wouldn't be able to complete the side mission.

This is simply an endless loop.

Then Jiang Feng started teaching happily.

Teaching a real genius chef who is 1.92 meters tall, Chinese and French, handsome, young and rich, with superb cooking skills to cook, who knows this feeling really, whoever tries it, Jiang Feng even has a feeling that he has already embarked on life Peak illusion.

Sure enough, this is the correct way to open the plot of the protagonist. With just a few words, the geniuses will bow down and become their subordinates, showing a kingly demeanor in every move they make.

Jiang Feng looked proudly at the plate of crispy apples that prompted Zhang Guanghang.

[A portion of flour is of poor quality, slightly thin, egg liquid is too thick, the oil temperature is slightly lower, the frying time is slightly longer, and the crispy apples taste great]

Jiang Feng:...

Please put away your long identification results. Thank you.

Two hours later——
