From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 45 Bragging for Junior Brother
  Watching Feng Zhengming pour the "Double Crisp" into the plate, Lin Jiacheng was stunned for a moment.

While Feng Zhengming was in a daze, he quickly picked up the dishes on the plate with a pair of chopsticks, and wiped the edges of the plate with soup juice with a clean towel.

When Lin Jiacheng came back to his senses, he was even more amazed when he saw the "Double Crisp" dish that Feng Zhengming carefully arranged.

Feng Zhengming smiled, picked up the plate and handed it to Lin Jiacheng and said, "Brother-in-law, please excuse me."

Lin Jiacheng looked at the dishes in front of him and was stunned for a moment before quickly coming back to his senses.

He reached out and took the plate of food, holding it with both hands.

Lin Jiacheng said: "Zhengming, your skills are really amazing."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment, brother-in-law. Please go and serve the food first. It would be bad if the food gets cold."

Lin Jiacheng quickly agreed: "Okay, okay."

Then Lin Jiacheng quickly ran to the canteen in front while carrying the dishes.

After walking out of the kitchen, Lin Jiacheng deliberately slowed down a bit.

When he arrived at the table, Lin Jiacheng put the dishes on the table with a smile and said: "The fried double crispy oil is here. Let some guests try it. This is a classic dish in Yanxilou and a classic in our Shandong cuisine." vegetable."

After hearing the introduction, everyone present immediately focused their attention on this plate of "Double Crisp".

The chicken gizzards on the plate are like blooming chrysanthemums, and the pork belly is naturally curled. The combination of bamboo shoot slices, carrot slices, green pepper slices and green beans really makes this dish look fresh and elegant, and very beautiful.

Director Zhang smiled and said, "Okay, this dish reflects the skill of Yanxilou's chefs. Come on, let's try it."

The invited guests, under the humility of Director Zhang, naturally used their chopsticks first.

Or pick up a piece of chicken gizzards, or pick up a piece of pork belly.

When you put it in your mouth, the first thing you taste is the light salty flavor of the gravy without any heavy seasoning, which makes people feel very comfortable eating it.

And then, when you start chewing it in your mouth, the crispness and tenderness of the chicken gizzards or pork belly plays a wonderful music in everyone's mouth.

It's brittle and has a little bit of bounce on your teeth when you chew it.

It is tender and does not feel difficult to chew at all. It can be easily broken with a light bite, and it is very easy to chew in the mouth.

The invited guests immediately took the initiative to pick up their wine glasses after taking the first bite.

"Okay, this dish is really good. We should have a drink of Director Zhang's dish."

Director Zhang was also very satisfied with the meal. When he saw the guests taking the initiative to pick up the wine glasses, he felt even more happy. He also picked up the wine glasses and said, "You should have a drink. Come here and let me toast you."

After drinking this glass of wine, Factory Director Zhang saw that Lin Jiacheng had not left yet, so he quickly said: "Jiacheng, your brother-in-law's skills are really amazing."

Lin Jiacheng hesitated for a moment, then said: "Director, this fried double crispy oil is not made by Huidong. He was busy making other dishes. I was worried that it would delay the director and the guests, so I ordered him in the back kitchen. One moment, and then Junior Brother Huidong, the chef Feng Zhengming in our cafeteria, made it for everyone."

Director Zhang was a little surprised when he heard this, and everyone else present was also surprised.

When Li Huidong led Feng Zhengming out for a meeting, everyone also saw Feng Zhengming.

Everyone knows that Feng Zhengming is very young.

The "Double Crisp" dish on the table in front of everyone was so amazing that it was made by such a young Feng Zhengming.

It really surprised everyone.

The invited guest calmed down and said, "You really can't tell a person's face. When I saw the young chef before, I thought he was just starting out and didn't have much experience. I didn't expect that he was already so skilled in cooking." Lin Jiacheng He took the opportunity to brag: "Junior Brother, before he started cooking, he had always been with Chef Yan. Last year, Chef Yan went to attend the Culinary Association's exchange meeting, and he only had one apprentice with him, Junior Brother."

The guests invited by the factory director were a little surprised to hear Lin Jiacheng boasting like this.

"So, Master Xiao Feng is really Chef Yan's disciple?"

"Yes, it seems that Chef Yan attaches great importance to Master Xiao Feng, his young apprentice."

Lin Jiacheng said: "Well, I'm not Chef Yan, so I don't dare to speak on behalf of Chef Yan casually. However, my junior brother is a relatively practical person. After becoming an apprentice to Chef Yan, he focused on cooking wholeheartedly. Maybe this is What Chef Yan loves about him.”

The leader of the invited guests said: "Those who do one thing wholeheartedly will definitely achieve great achievements. In the future, you, the little master, may become a very powerful chef."

Lin Jiacheng smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. I will definitely bring your words to our junior brother."

Factory Director Zhang said: "Jia Cheng, you go to the kitchen and have a look. If the dishes are almost done, please invite Huidong and his junior brother out again, and also give a toast to today's distinguished guests in our factory."

Lin Jiacheng immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, then everyone eat slowly first, I will go to the back to urge the next dishes."

Lin Jiacheng didn't hesitate and hurried to the kitchen.

After Lin Jiacheng left, Director Zhang continued to greet the guests to eat, and several deputy directors also frequently raised their glasses to toast.

Several invited guests seemed to be having a lot of fun drinking because of the delicious food today.

Lin Jiacheng ran into the kitchen and rushed to Feng Zhengming's side.

Across the desk, Lin Jiacheng said to Feng Zhengming: "Zhengming, your fried double crispy dish today really made us proud. You are indeed Chef Yan's apprentice. Your fried double crispy dish made the director It was well received by the guests.”

Feng Zhengming said with a calm smile on his face: "Thank you, brother-in-law, for helping me brag. I'm actually not as good as my brother-in-law said. I just made what my master taught me."

After hearing what Feng Zhengming said, Lin Jiacheng was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Did you all hear what I said before?"

Zhang Lei couldn't help but smile and said: "It's not our fault. It's just that your voice is a bit loud."

Lin Jiacheng looked at everyone in the kitchen and could only smile awkwardly.

Then he said to Feng Zhengming and Li Huidong: "Huidong, Zhengming, you will have all the dishes served in a while. Remember to go to the front to toast a few guests."

Li Huidong said: "What? My junior brother and I will cook for them? Do we also have to drink with them?"

Lin Jiacheng said: "I'm not accompanying you, but my guests think your fellow apprentices are good at craftsmanship and want to treat you to a drink."

Li Huidong nodded: "That's pretty much it. Brother-in-law, don't be too humble."

Lin Jiacheng looked at Li Huidong and sighed helplessly: "Huidong, sometimes you are too straight-tempered. Our canteen contracting does not just rely on your good craftsmanship."

Feng Zhengming saw that his elder brother was obviously a little angry, so he quickly smoothed things over and said, "Brother, doesn't Master often tell us to be low-key and not always want to compete with others? My brother-in-law is actually right. We contracted the canteen, but we still have to give others the face in the factory."

Listen to Feng Zhengming’s words, especially Feng Zhengming’s words of Master’s warning.

Li Huidong suppressed his anger and said, "Okay, the food is ready, go and toast them a glass of wine."

Lin Jiacheng breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes changed when he looked at Feng Zhengming.

　Sorry, today's update is a little late.
