Hardcore Chef Dad

In full view, Feng Yifan started his production without hesitation. First of all, he had to make dough.

　　 Add lard to the dough, and start kneading just like that.

　　 Chen Xu stood aside, watching Feng Yifan's face-to-face approach, his expression gradually became very surprised, and there was a little awe in his eyes.

　　 Luo Yu watched for a while, and Chen Xu told her something about traditional dim sum.

　　 "Chef Feng is rubbing crisps, right?"

　　 After mixing the lard and noodles, Feng Yifan does not stop rubbing his hands back and forth on the chopping board, just like rubbing clothes on the chopping board, and does not stop rubbing the palms of his hands.

　　 Chen Xu heard Luo Yu's words and said to Luo Yu in a low voice, "Well, I'm crispy."

　　 Chen Xu, who is the teacher of the top domestic pastry chef, is naturally no stranger to wiping.

　　Because of Chinese dim sum, especially the dim sum that can be called ‘puff pastry’, the key lies in the pastry dough.

　　 The key to whether the pastry is good or not lies in this crisping step.

　　 This step can be said to be the basic skills of Huaiyang Baian Dim Sum Master.

　　 But this basic skill is the thing that tests the strength of a white dim sum chef the most.

　　 If you cannot rub enough, you may not be able to achieve the crisping effect.

　　Chen Xu has also studied with Master for a long time in this step, and now she can only barely grasp it, but should he really be able to do what his master did? Maybe Chen Xu still lacks a lot.

　　 At this time, seeing Feng Yifan constantly rubbing the pastry back and forth, really made Chen Xu admire.

　　 From Feng Yifan's technique, Chen Xu has already understood that Feng Yifan is a master.

　　 Actually, if you just want to make dim sum, you can buy that kind of pastry noodles. It might not be too bad.

　　 But if you want to make the dim sum exquisite enough, any Baian dim sum chef will definitely make it by himself.

　　 This is the basics, and it is also a test of the conscience of a white dim sum master.

　　 Feng Yifan rubbed the pastry there, Chen Xu looked admired, and Luo Yu beside him was a little in awe.

　　 Yu Quan in the back kitchen is also very carefully watching.

　　 Some other chefs are not too concerned about this step.

　　 But Feng Yifan ignored those, he just did it himself, completing every step of his own.

　　 is almost done on the shortbread noodles, put them aside and cover them with plastic wrap.

　　 Then Feng Yifan began to process the rest. In addition to the shortbread noodles, he also needed water, lard and flour to make a portion of water and oil noodles.

　　 Seeing this, Luo Yu asked Chen Xu next to him: "What kind of snack is this?"

　　Chen Xu looked at it and said, "It's a little bit like double hemp shortbread."

　　 But after speaking the name, Chen Xu couldn't help being a little bit confused.

　　Because Shuangma shortbread is not considered a high-ranking snack among Huaiyang Baian snacks. It can be said that it can only be regarded as a very basic level at best.

　　 But today Feng Yifan asked them to come, is it just to use this basic dim sum to convince the two dim sum masters?

　　 Chen Xu thinks it should not be, at least how he and Luo Yu can be regarded as some famous dim sum chefs.

　　 But then, Feng Yifan's steps are indeed not much different from making Shuangma shortbread.

　　 However, after both noodles are reconciled and put aside. Then Feng Yifan had some changes.

　　 He took the chestnuts that had been boiled and peeled beforehand, and added the water boiled with chestnut shells and sugar, and then pureed them in a blender.

　　 Seeing this step, Luo Yu was a little surprised.

　　 She didn't expect Feng Yifan to use such a method.

　　 In order to make Montblanc's chestnut fragrance stronger, she thought of a similar way, except that she roasted the chestnut shells to dry the moisture, directly beat them into powder, and then mixed them into the chestnut puree.

In 　　, after adding some cream and mixing, the chestnut fragrance will still remain strong.

　　 But she did not expect that after such a chestnut shell was used to boil water, the boiled water would be used to mash the chestnuts.

　　 And Feng Yifan didn't add cream or butter, so he just made a chestnut puree.

After 　　 was done, Feng Yifan smeared the chestnut puree into the prepared noodles.

　　 First apply a layer, then fold it, roll it flat, and then apply another layer.

　　 Repeated and repeated this way, and finally used up all the chestnut mud.

　　 Then fold the dough with this layer of chestnut puree, knead it into long strips, and cut it into small doughs, and then apply a layer of egg yolk liquid on the outside and sprinkle some sesame seeds.

　　 Just do this with small dough pieces.

　　 And in Feng Yifan's hands, the small dough looks like sesame dumplings.

　　 Then, after burning a pot of oil, Feng Yifan's technique of accurately controlling the oil temperature reappeared.

　　 Under all eyes, put all the sesame dumplings into the pot.

　　 It seems that the oil temperature is not high. After the dumplings were filled with oil, they all sank to the bottom, and Feng Yifan didn't even move them.

　　 As the oil temperature rises, the dumplings in the oil pan begin to crisp, slowly floating up from the bottom of the pan.

After 　　 floated up, Feng Yifan quickly picked them up one by one. It can be said that there is no delay in going there for a minute.

　　 And as they were picked up one by one, the whole back kitchen was filled with a burst of fragrance.

　　 First is the fragrance of sesame, then the fragrance of sesame is mixed with the fragrance of chestnut, and finally there is the fragrance of some shortbread, which really makes everyone can't help but swallow.

　　 Even Luo Yu couldn't help but swallowed and muttered: "It smells good."

　　 Chen Xu heard the sound and turned his head and glanced at Luo Yu.

　　 Then he also said: "It really smells good."

　　 Feng Yifan set aside to let the excess oil drip, and then went down one pot after another.

　　 When it was almost the third wave, he pointed to the first wave and said: "Well, these should be edible, everyone, try it."

　　Feng Yifan also said to Chen Xu and Luo Yu: "My chestnut cake is inspired by you. You can help me taste it and give me some suggestions."

　　 Upon hearing this, Chen Xu and Luo Yu looked at each other, and then they both laughed bitterly.

　　Chen Xu said first: "Chef Feng, don't make jokes on the two of us. We are not qualified to give you suggestions just for the hand you just rubbed the crispy hand?"

　　 Luo Yu said: "Chef Feng, I didn't expect you to learn some experience from my method, and then use a more appropriate method to improve it."

　　 Feng Yifan smiled and said, "So, I was actually inspired by you. If you really want to say, you can be regarded as my half teacher."

　　 While talking, Feng Yifan has almost fished out the third pot.

　　So, today’s dim sum is finished.

　　 Feng Yifan gave the first pot to everyone and said: "Well, everyone can try it and see how my dim sum is a combination of Chinese and Western. How does it taste?"

　　 Everyone was not too polite, and one after another came forward to pinch a piece of chestnut pastry.

　　 When Luo Yu was about to eat, Chen Xu reminded her: "Don't worry, forgot that I taught you how to eat this kind of snack?"

　　 When reminded, Luo Yu suddenly remembered, and immediately supported it with his other hand.

　　 At this time, someone has already bitten down.

　　 Click.

　　 A very crisp voice sounded, and at the same time the person who took a bite was surprised to see a lot of residue fall down instantly, and it was too late for him to go around with his hands.

　　 Other people who haven't eaten yet saw it, and they all hurriedly, like Chen Xu and Luo Yu, took it underneath with their other hand.

　　 With the "click" in the back kitchen, everyone tasted Feng Yifan's chestnut crisp.

　　 A shortbread with a rich chestnut scent and sweetness in the mouth, coupled with the scent of sesame, really makes people feel the fragrance of lips and teeth instantly.

The key is that this dessert is not very sweet, and everyone who would have thought it was very oily, after eating it, they found that they did not feel as greasy as they had imagined. It was really crispy and sweet and delicious. It's the feeling of eating a crispy chestnut.

　　 Seeing that everyone has been eating, there is no time to even talk.

　　 Feng Yifan cleaned up everything, packed all the remaining chestnut cakes, and then was about to leave the back kitchen.

　　 When Feng Yifan was about to leave, Chen Xu and Luo Yu hurriedly followed.

　　 "Chef Feng, your chestnut cake is really delicious."

　　 "Yes, yes, I really can't find a place to improve."

　　 Feng Yifan smiled and said, "You two don't need to do this. If you think something is not good, you can bring it up, and we will improve this snack together."

　　 Chen Xu and Luo Yu looked at each other when they heard the words, and then the two seemed to understand what Feng Yifan meant.

　　 At this moment, the two people also made up their minds.

　　 Chen Xu said: "Chef Feng, we accept your invitation. We are willing to follow you to Su Ji and become Su Ji’s dim sum chef. I hope you don’t dislike the two of us who can only make dim sum."

　　 Luo Yu was even more embarrassed to say: "Chef Feng, in fact, I can only make pastry, and I am still learning traditional dim sum."

　　 Feng Yifan said, "Do you still call me Chef Feng? Shouldn't I change my mouth?"

　　 The two were taken aback for a while, then they looked at each other and said in unison, "Yes, chef."

　　 Yu Quan watched Feng Yifan lead the two people away, and his eyes were full of envy. He was not envious of Feng Yifan for finding such two good dim sum chefs, but envious that Chen Xu and Luo Yu could be favored by Feng Yifan and be invited to Su Ji.

　　Through some tastings these days, especially after seeing Feng Yifan's cooking skills.

　　Yu Quan can be regarded as really understanding, what is the real outsider, and what is the real top chef.

　　 Feng Yifan has always been very easy-going since he appeared, and he didn't put on airs to anyone. Even many times, he will respond modestly to others' compliments.

　　 is Feng Yifan’s culinary skills. Those wonderful skills really make people have to be impressed.

　　 Yuquan, a chef who has been in Shanghai for many years, knows that being able to follow a chef like Feng Yifan will learn a lot and will greatly improve his cooking skills.

　　 Only Yu Quan also understands that he has no way to follow Feng Yifan.

　　 First of all, he will not be invited by Feng Yifan. The second and most realistic problem is that he needs his current job, which is his key income to support his family. And if you follow Feng Yifan to Su Ji, a place chasing ideals, Yu Quan doesn't think he can support his ideals.

　　 After regaining his senses, Yu Quan watched everyone in the back kitchen still aftertaste and discuss chestnut crisps.

　　 He understood that no one in the back kitchen would want to learn from Feng Yifan.

　　 Yuquan clapped his hands and said, "Well, everyone, let's start working. Don't forget that you are still at work. Dinner time is almost here, so don't be idle here."

　　 Yuquan is the chef after all, and one sentence is very useful, and everyone immediately gets busy.

　　 The person who was planning to clean up what Feng Yifan left behind, only then discovered that all the things Feng Yifan used had been cleaned and summarized by him.

　　 Yuquan also had to admire when he saw this. He is the top chef who really loves cooking.

　　 A top chef, no matter where he is, he will not leave a mess after cooking.

　　 They will pack things up by themselves to ensure that the kitchen is clean and tidy.

　　 This is precisely what the traditional domestic chefs have passed on from generation to generation.

　　 Feng Yifan led Chen Xu and Luo Yu out of the back kitchen, and when he took the elevator upstairs, he did not forget to ask the two people about the chestnut cake.

　　 Chen Xu and Luo Yu also conducted a serious review, and then they really found some directions for improvement.

　　 Luo Yu first said: "Chef, in fact, you can use my chestnut shell powder~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This can further increase the aroma of chestnuts and make this pastry more like chestnuts."

　　 Feng Yifan nodded: "Well, this is a good way, but you still need to add it in moderation."

Chen Xu gave another suggestion: "Chef, do you think that if you add some other nuts, mix them with sesame seeds, and sprinkle them on the surface of this shortbread, will it have a more complex taste? "

　　 Feng Yifan suddenly laughed after hearing this: "Yes, you can see, then after discussion, don’t we have some brand new ideas?"

Feng Yifan went on to say: "And I still have a bold idea, that is not only can be made with chestnuts, but also with other nut butters, so that it can be made into a series of nuts, or it can be made with fruits. do."

　　Chen Xu and Luo Yu smiled and nodded, indicating that they are indeed okay.

　　 Actually, whether it is Chen Xu or Luo Yu, it is probably because of their own shop. The two of them are trapped in a vicious circle of using only chestnuts, and they are unable to make better use of other dim sum ingredients.

　　 After Feng Yifan saw this, he began to give them more guidance, so that they don't just get stuck on chestnuts.

　　 In the talking room, the elevator reached the floor, and Feng Yifan led the two out of the elevator to the room.

　　At this time, Feng Ruoruo, Chen Yaofei, and Yang Xiaoxi were already awake. The three little girls were chattering in the room, and they were also expecting Feng Dad’s snacks.

　　 Feng Yifan pushed the door in, raised his hand and said, "I'm back, let's try some new snacks."
