That’s right. Chu Xiao naturally knew that although Gabriel apologized, it was only because of his own rude behavior and not for the Chinese food.
Before he got to know Yuan Zhou, Chu Xiao had already had a very high evaluation of Chinese food. Perhaps it was because of the identity of his bloodline. After getting to know Yuan Zhou, he naturally felt that it was even more extraordinary.
A good chef could change any prejudice. Chu Xiao had a deep understanding of this, for example, he and his French food.
However, Chu Xiao was suddenly brooding over the fact that he didn’t know how to eat Chinese food at all.
In fact, it wasn’t that he didn’t know how to cook at all, but compared to the French cooking skills that Chu Xiao had mastered, he really didn’t know how to cook at all.
Therefore, Chu Xiao directly went back to his office to study Yuan Zhou’s notes after getting them.
As a matter of fact, this was the first time that Chu Xiao had seen Yuan Zhou’s cooking notes. However, as soon as he opened the picture, he knitted his brows tightly and became silent.
As a genius chef, his reading speed was naturally not slow. Although the words on the picture were dense, Chu Xiao could still read it quickly.
However, Chu Xiao was a little stunned after a cursory glance because of several data.
For example, the hand temperature requirement for making dough. Yes, you’re right, it’s the palm temperature requirement.
It was written in the notebook that the dough was kneaded with one’s hand, and the water used for kneading was clear water without any temperature. Therefore, the temperature of the palm was the key.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou wrote down the number suitable for kneading the sweet water surface in the notebook.
“The normal body temperature of a human is about 36.3 to 37.2. However, Yuan Zhou asked for 27.6. He said that this temperature would affect the kneading and over-fermentation of the dough.” Chu Xiao touched his palm and then thought about it.
“Using ice to lower the temperature of the palm and then accurately measuring it is not difficult. The difficult part is how to maintain this temperature.” Chu Xiao pointed at the picture on the phone.
Chu Xiao continued to look down and found that it was still a series of data and methods.
For example, it was written that the temperature of the noodles should be controlled at 101.21 degrees Celsius. It was best if it just exceeded the boiling point.
The boiling point of water was also written in detail.
The boiling point of water was written in Yuan Zhou’s notes. The boiling point changed with the atmospheric pressure. As the atmospheric pressure increased, the boiling point would also increase.
Because the atmospheric pressure above the water’s surface always prevented the water molecules from evaporating, when the air pressure rose, the water had to be at a higher temperature to turn into steam. In general, at a low altitude, the atmospheric pressure was basically at one atmospheric pressure. Places below sea level (such as deep mines).
If the air pressure was higher than one atmospheric pressure, the boiling point of the water would increase. According to scientific measurement, the boiling point of water would increase by three degrees when the depth increased by one kilometer.
On the contrary, the lower the pressure, the lower the boiling point, so it was not difficult to maintain the boiling point of water at 101.21.
Only with a stable temperature like this could the degree of cooking of the noodles be controlled.
“Yuan Zhou’s Chinese food can be cooked in this way?” Chu Xiao looked at several temperature requirements that were accurate to two decimal places and sighed with emotion in his heart.
However, these were only the simple physical requirements. There were still many cooking methods and the cooking requirements of the special soy sauce.
“This soy sauce is very interesting. I can start making it today.” Chu Xiao was a man who would act immediately. He got up, took his coat and left his office.
As a three-star Michelin restaurant, Chu Xiao had his own vegetable garden. The purpose of his visit this time was to build his own vegetable garden.
Just like what Yuan Zhou had told Chu Xiao, what he gave Chu Xiao was the cooking method of the noodles that he could buy the ingredients for in France.
Apart from the importance of the noodles, the replication of the soy sauce was the most time-consuming part of the sweet water’s surface. And Chu Xiao just happened to be able to gather all the raw materials for the concoction.
“I’m really looking forward to Yuan Zhou’s personal cooking exhibition after the new year. ” While trying to make soy sauce, Chu Xiao sighed with emotion in his heart.
The more he cooked according to Yuan Zhou’s recipes, the more curious Chu Xiao was about Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship and the bottom line of Yuan Zhou.
With such a feeling, Chu Xiao tried to make more than ten versions of soy sauce. When he tried the taste the next day, he finally made the soy sauce described by Yuan Zhou.
The soy sauce was the best, so the only thing left was the preparation of the noodles. Step by step, Chu Xiao made the noodles strictly according to the cooking method given by Yuan Zhou.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve cooked according to a recipe like this. It’s a wonderful feeling.” Chu Xiao looked at the finished product of sweet water on the glass counter and couldn’t help sighing with emotion.
After that, Chu Xiao sat in his seat and ate up the small portion of the sweet water surface one mouthful after another.
“Not bad. I can barely meet people.” Chu Xiao gave his own evaluation and then wiped his mouth elegantly. He then got up and left his personal kitchen.
“Phil, come here for a moment.” Chu Qi said loudly.
“Ta ta ta.” A burst of crisp footsteps immediately came from far away. The person who came was a blonde stunner with blue eyes and golden hair. She was tall and wore a black dress. She went straight to Chu Xiao’s side and said, “What’s the matter, head chef Chu?”
This girl was obviously not Chu Xiao’s previous assistant. Yes, Chu Xiao’s assistant had been changed again for the same reason as before.
“Go and ask Gabriel to come over. Tell him that I have a new product and invite him to taste it.” Chu Qi said expressionlessly.
“Okay, head chef Chu.” Phil’s assistant immediately noted it down and said.
“The time is set at threeo’ clock this afternoon.” Chu Qi said.
In fact, there were only four hours left until three in the afternoon. Using three days as an excuse, such a sudden invitation was not very polite, but it was obvious that talented people did not need to follow some rigid rules.
Therefore, Gabriel would definitely come to this invitation because of Chu Xiao’s reputation.
“Yes, I am.” Therefore, Phil agreed without hesitation.
“Go on.” Chu Xiao waved his hand.
Phil immediately left with his notebook.
“Interesting appraisal.” Chu Xiao muttered to himself and then went back to the big kitchen to check today’s dishes.
Sometimes, when a person was overseas, if they could protect the country’s reputation, they would definitely do so.
After all, in the hearts of the people, the country was like this. They could criticize this and that and even curse on the internet, but as long as a foreigner said something, they would immediately retaliate.
Soon, it was threeo’ clock in the afternoon.
Gabriel came as promised. He was wearing a decent light blue suit, and his hair was neatly combed. Even his beard was clean. As soon as he entered, he smiled and said,””Thank you for your invitation, head chef Chu. In your hometown’s language, it’s an honor.”
“You’re welcome. It’s just a small new dish about cooked Wheaten food. ” Chu Qi said.
Gabriel, who had just sat down, felt that Chu Xiao had come with ill intentions, but he was not afraid. He said with a smile, “I’m looking forward to it. I didn’t get to taste head chef Chu’s dishes last time. This is a rare opportunity.”
Chu Xiao nodded and didn’t answer. Then, he turned his head and said to the waiter at the side,”Go and bring it up.”
