Chapter 549 Pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger

Lele looked around and found that Lao Wang was indeed not in the kitchen, and there was no one else here.

I couldn't help but start to waver in my heart. Is it true that Boss Ma is a real person who doesn't show his face and looks clean on the outside, but is actually a very powerful chef?

Just as she was thinking this, Malu had already brought the bag of potatoes to the pool and started washing them.

While washing, he stretched his neck and looked around.

"What are you looking for?"

"Peeling knife." Ma Lu said, "Don't you have to peel the potatoes after washing them?"

Although I have never cooked, I can do it at this level. He still knew common sense, so he looked for a paring knife in advance, but unfortunately he couldn't find it.

“Well, Uncle Wang probably doesn’t need a paring knife.” Ma Youyou reminded, “So the kitchen probably doesn’t have a paring knife either.”

“Hey, is that right? "Ma Lu thought about it, and it seemed that he had never seen Lao Wang use a paring knife. "Then how did he peel it?"

"Just...just use a kitchen knife." He Xiaoqian said, "I see all the chefs on TV seem to be like this."

"..."

Listening to this conversation, Le Le felt only a black line, and she was ashamed of her previous wavering.

This person has never been in the kitchen at all. He is probably the kind of person who can't even make scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

She took a deep breath and said to Sun He beside her, "Mr. Sun, there is no need to read any more."

Sun He also felt that Malu was a bit outrageous, but he was more patient than Lele, "You're here, let's finish eating the potato shreds before leaving."

"I'm worried now that this guy can really Are the potatoes cooked? Don't send us all to the hospital."

Ma Lu ignored Lele's sarcasm, picked up a washed potato and walked to the knife rest.

There are more than a dozen knives placed on the knife rest.

There are Chinese, Western and Japanese knives for chopping bones, slicing, and ceramic knives. Ma Lu took out two of them and weighed them. He felt that they were not as smooth as his own chef's knife.

So he covered himself with his clothes and summoned the chef's knife.

When Malu took out the knife, Lele was stunned for a moment, "Do you keep your knife on your body?"

"I am a chef, am I not the guy who takes it with me to eat? It’s normal.”

“No, you don’t take the subway or plane?” Lele wanted to complain, but she held it back.

Then she saw Malu begin to peel the skin.

The first cut was a slash.

With the second knife, poor Tudou was almost cut in half.

With the third cut, he finally returned to normal and cut off a small piece of skin. With the fourth cut, Malu began to speed up his movements and became more and more skillful. Finally, he finished cutting off a piece of skin in less than ten seconds. Only potatoes.

This result cannot be said to be good, but it is not particularly bad either.

After peeling the potatoes, Malu placed the potatoes on the chopping board and began to slice them.

Just looking at his posture made Lele frown. Ma Lu was standing too close to the chopping board, which would affect the strength of his hands.

The correct stance should be to keep the abdomen and the chopping board about a punch apart, while the two are in a straight line.

In addition, the way he holds the knife is wrong. All five fingers are grasping the handle of the knife. Although it is a firm grip, it is difficult to control the direction accurately.

This gripping method is more suitable for chopping people rather than cutting vegetables. A qualified Chinese kitchen knife gripping method should separate two fingers and stick to both sides of the kitchen knife.

Not to mention that Malu's arms were still very tense, almost stretched into a straight line. And his left hand holding the potato was even more incredible, with his fingers just resting on the potato.

This posture is very easy to get cut. The standard answer should be to hide your fingers and use your knuckles to hold the blade of the knife.

As expected... Is he a layman?

Lele felt that she had seen Ma Lu's true face clearly, but the next moment she heard Sun He next to her let out a light sigh.

Although Malu's posture was very poor, he was not slow at all when cutting potatoes.

The chef's knife flew and danced with his arm, as accurately as a precision instrument.

And unlike other chefs, Malu’s left hand just holds down the potatoes, and he relies entirely on his right hand to do the work.

However, the knife could always go around his fingers accurately, and after cutting all the potatoes around him, the blade turned and began to cut the potatoes under his palm horizontally.

Is this okay? Lele's eyes widened.

Soon, Malu cut all the potatoes into potato slices of the same thickness.

Then he simply took back his left hand and cut the potato slices on the chopping board with one hand.

While cutting and returning, I asked He Xiaoqian, "What should I do next, fry it in the pan?"

"No, no, I remember that the potato shreds need to be washed first to remove the starch and taste. It will be better.”

He Xiaoqian used to help her mother a lot when she was in her hometown. Now she rents a house by herself and can still cook.

However, there were two professionals present, and she felt a little guilty. She was afraid that she was wrong, so she kept her eyes on Lele and Sun He.

She was relieved when she saw that the two of them had no objection.

"That's it." Malu turned around while chopping vegetables and took a sink from the shelf.

Lele gritted her teeth as she watched. Is this guy deliberately showing off his skills?

Damn it! The most important thing is that he really pretended to do it!

Many great chefs can chop vegetables without looking at the ingredients, but while you are talking with your mouth and the other hand is still doing something else, this is... a bit awesome.

No, it’s not a little bit awesome, it’s really awesome!

Because as long as you try to draw a square with one hand and a circle with one hand, you will know how difficult it is to multitask.

Moreover, the shredded potatoes cut out by Malu are neither wide nor narrow, and have the same size, all between 1.2-1.4mm, which is the most suitable thickness for making spicy and sour potato shreds.

When all the potatoes were shredded, Malu used a chef's knife to cut them all into the sink.

Then he put down the chef's knife, turned on the faucet, and soaked the shredded potatoes first.

Then he started to peel the garlic, but he became clumsy again when peeling the garlic. He couldn't peel off the garlic skin after peeling it several times.

But Lele was not fooled again. She had already understood that some people were deliberately pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, or it might be to retaliate against her previous doubts.

It can only be said that ginger is still more spicy than old. Maybe it was because Mr. Sun saw something that he did not turn away and left, insisting on eating shredded potatoes.

In contrast, she was too young to be deceived by that guy's poor acting skills, thinking that he was really just a layman who didn't understand anything.

As a result, Malu pretended to be a novice and played with her again and again, admiring her ugliness and pranks in the dark, and he must have been happy for a long time.

When she thought of this, Lele couldn't help but feel angry and itchy her teeth.

What a terrible guy.

However, Malu was not happy at this time. He just thought why the garlic peeling was so difficult to peel. Should the restaurant hire a garlic peeler to help Pharaoh share the pressure in the future?

In the end, He Xiaoqian was the most kind and reminded, "Boss, you can pat the garlic with a knife and then peel it. It will be much easier to peel."
