Chapter 101: Basic Skills of Chefs
"Congratulations, by facing this young man who was calm from beginning to end and answered very smoothly, Mr. Zheng's love gradually increased, and he even had the idea of accepting people as his apprentices.
If Mr. Zheng's thoughts were found out by Zhou Xingchu at this moment, he would definitely be angry, and maybe the two centenarians would have to fight.
"Next is the second test of basic skills. I will supervise the test." Zheng Lao returned to his seat, and then another old man, Du Lao, stood up and looked at Gu Bai with a smile.
The identification of ingredients belongs to theoretical knowledge, while the assessment of basic skills belongs to practical ability.
As a chef, you must first have a solid basic skills.
The basic skills of chefs include knife skills, spoon skills, fire attack, turning pots, sizing and simmering, accurate feeding, etc. In the ancient earth period, this was a skill that every person who learned cooking must have. Can't work with a certificate.
Here, only knife skills, spoon skills and ingredients need to be assessed. Because of the development of science and technology, people have made instruments that can accurately control temperature, so the heat is no longer one of the basic skills that chefs must test.
Turning the pot is not a must for the chefs of the interstellar, because the cooking methods of the natural food eaten by the interstellar people are mainly fried and boiled, and there are very few cases of turning the pot.
"You can choose your own ingredients to show your basic skills. Knife skills require that the thickness of the cut silk should be uniform and no more than three millimeters. Spoon skills keep the cooking ingredients evenly heated, mature and colored, and the taste is consistent. Grasp the precise time, so that the taste can be brought out to the maximum." Veteran Du explained the assessment requirements very carefully.
After listening to Gu Bai, the assessment of this game is inevitable. After all, the basic skills assessment of chefs in the interstellar age is simply a simplified pediatrics department compared to the ancient earth. Just pull out any chef from the earth era can complete this task. assessment.
For example, knife skills, in the past, not only shredding, but also pushing, slicing, and chopping various knife techniques, shredding is only the most basic one.
However, in the era of serious food culture gap, it is already very good to keep these.
[It sounds so difficult, but the shredding has to be cut into three millimeters thick, and each strip has to be evenly thick. This is too difficult, right? 】
[I have always cut vegetables very casually. It’s not that I am casual, but the ingredients themselves have ideas. Every time I cut them out, my mother asked me if I was cutting strips or chunks? Dove head in question. jpg]
[Seriously, even the chefs in the restaurant may not be able to achieve uniform thickness. I went to Jinliangji for dinner before and ordered a hot and sour shredded potato. Overall, the shredded potato is really good. It's good, but it can't achieve uniform thickness, and some gaps can still be clearly seen. 】
[I'm a little worried about this young man who participated in the assessment. He has not practiced for more than ten years, and it is impossible to master it accurately. He looks like how old he is. Even if he starts learning from a young age, he may not be able to master it, right? 】
[If it's my Xiaobai, there is absolutely no problem with knife skills. Xiaobai's shredded potatoes are a must. 】
[Cough cough... I'm sorry, Xinfan is not sensible, I will take her back immediately, you continue. 】
Xiaobai fans were scolded by Shen Liangxu's fans before, and now they don't dare to put Xiaobai's name on the public screen. Don't dare to hack him at will.
If they are sure that this is Xiaobai, even if they are few, they must fight for Xiaobai to the end.
On this side, Xiaobaifen constantly constrains their fans not to easily bring Xiaobai's name on the public screen, while the anchor of their fans is choosing the ingredients for the assessment.
In the end, Gu Bai chose a shredded potato, a cucumber, a fish, and some ingredients and condiments.
The first thing to show is knife skills. Gu Bai washed and peeled the shredded potatoes, because this is not his daily live broadcast, and there is no need to slow down the speed so that fans can see clearly.
Therefore, the audience in the live broadcast room could only continue to hear Duang Duang's voice and the afterimage of Gu Bai's sword falling.
After a few seconds, Gu Bai stopped chopping vegetables. The chopping board still looked like a potato. If it wasn't for the change in length and flatness, everyone would think that Gu Bai had just cut a loneliness.
Just when the audience began to question, Gu Bai put the sliced shredded potatoes into the water, and the shredded potatoes that were still sticking together spread out instantly. .
[Fuck, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that potatoes could be cut so finely. 】
[Compared with this, the shredded potatoes I ate before were considered very thick. 】
[Is this really a level that humans can achieve? Is this really not an advertisement for a simulated robot? 】
【Is this too scary? How old is this young man, to have such a powerful foundation, it is terrifying. 】
[Really good, the future generations are terrifying. 】
Not only the audience in the live broadcast room was shocked, but even the five invigilators sitting in the proctoring booth were equally stunned.
Knife skills are the basic skills for each of them. They can also cut potatoes finely and evenly, but they cannot guarantee that they can reach the fineness of Gu Baiqie.
Immediately, the eyes of everyone looking at him changed again. Except for the slightly gloomy eyes of Bai Lao, everyone else was full of admiration and relief.
It really is that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the future generations are terrifying.
However, Gu Bai's presentation did not end. After cutting the shredded potatoes, he took the cucumber again. It was still the same speed as before, and it was still the hand that could only see the afterimage, but this time there was no sound of Duang Duang's impact.
The audience in the live broadcast room is also full of expectations, hoping to see the thickness of cotton thread again.
It's just that this time Gu Bai didn't cut it all at once, but first cut the cucumber from the front for a while, then turned the cucumber over and cut it for a while.
After all the cucumbers are cut, the cucumber looks more like the original version than the potato. The length and thickness of the potato have changed just now, but the cucumber has not changed at all, which immediately caused great doubts to the fans watching. Including the proctor also looked suspicious.
"Have you finished cutting?" Zhou Xingchu asked uncertainly.
Gu Bai: "It's finished."
As if he knew their doubts, Gu Bai didn't give a shit. He directly squeezed one end of the cucumber with both hands, and then pulled it to both sides. Only then did everyone see the mystery.
A cucumber that was originally 20 centimeters in length was stretched to one meter at this moment, which increased its length by five times, but did not break in the middle.
The five invigilators took a closer look and found that the cucumber was cut into extremely thin slices, but it was not completely cut, but the last small part was retained, both on the front and the back, so it could stretch and continue .
"Wonderful, wonderful." It was the first time that Chef Zhou Xing saw someone chopping vegetables like this, and it was much more difficult than shredding potatoes just now.
After all, the cutting is continuous and requires a strong control force. On the basis of continuous cutting, it is possible to cut very thinly, and it is even more necessary to accurately grasp the knife skills.
That's not enough, when Gu Bai is still cutting the front side, he can turn it over and cut the other side with the same speed and agility, which is even more difficult.
It is difficult to cultivate such a sword skill without more than ten years, and it also requires a certain amount of talent.
Based on this alone, Gu Bai's assessment can already be considered qualified.
But I also said before that there are three aspects to be tested. This has just passed the sword skill, the spoon skill and the material feeding. The invigilator and the audience in the live broadcast room are also looking forward to the next one. Even the fans of Shen Liangxu and Fang Weixuan stopped. "War", watch together fascinated.
Spoon work is an operation technique that uses different strengths, different methods of transporting the spoon, and takes a coherent action during the cooking process on the stove, so as to complete the whole process of dish making.
In the process of transporting the spoon, due to the different strength and direction of the force, the results of actions such as pushing, pulling, shaking, shaking, lifting, inverting, and flipping are also different.
The method of transporting spoons is often selected according to the techniques, raw materials and the characteristics of the finished dish. It has great flexibility and mobility. Whether the actions taken are reasonable, coherent, and coordinated often determines the success or failure of the operation.
In fact, it is not easy to evaluate the spoon skills alone, because the spoon skills are often used in combination with other basic skills. Therefore, regarding the assessment of the spoon skills, Gu Bai directly chose to make a complete dish.
When Gu Bai was choosing ingredients before, he chose a fish, an ingredient that puzzled the invigilator.
Now he is going to use this fish to make a dish, so that he can not only show his spoon skills, but also carry out the assessment of feeding materials, and even apply basic skills such as sizing and simmering.
The name of this dish is called: squirrel mandarin fish.
Probably none of the chefs who participated in the assessment before started to cook complete dishes in this assessment, so when Gu Bai took out the fish and started processing and cooking step by step, everyone's attention was focused on Even Old Bai, who was displeased with Gu Bai, could not take his eyes off him.
Squirrel mandarin fish is a Su-bang dish. As a kung fu dish, this dish requires knives, pickling, powdering, oil dipping, and sauce pouring in one go. There are certain requirements, because it needs to be made into the shape of a squirrel in the end.
Moreover, the main cooking method of squirrel mandarin fish is frying, and then pouring the sauce, which is also in line with the preferences of interstellar people to eat fried food.
Therefore, when the squirrel mandarin fish was ready to be served, the five invigilators were not calm, and the audience in the live broadcast room became even more excited.
