The Growth System Comes at the Age of Thirty

Chapter 7 The goal is... to become a super chef (crossed out)

However, when Chen Jingle treats other cats in the village, he doesn't just tease them, but mainly scares and drives them away.

no way.

Cats in rural areas are basically not sterilized. There are too many female cats to keep, and few people want to raise native cats these days. The kittens are often thrown to a place a little further away and left to fend for themselves.

Some are lucky enough to survive and become stray cats.

There are a lot of stray cats in the village now, and the ones raised by the villagers are usually not fed well and go looking for food everywhere every day.

Many other people's cats and ownerless stray cats are interested in his cat food and often come to eat it.

The cat food originally prepared for the tiger cubs had been robbed and looted several times by cats outside, which made him itchy with hatred.

At night in spring and autumn, people scream non-stop outside the house, like a baby crying, which is very scary.

His personal abilities are limited and he is destined not to be able to raise so many.

If all the stray cats in the village gathered here and caused trouble, people would just blame him.

A few days ago, a stray cat broke into the kitchen of a villager's house. The cat often wandered near Chen Jingle's house. People thought it was raised by him and came to ask for an explanation.

I had to spend a lot of time explaining this.

The effect of meowing was very obvious. After some scolding and roaring, no cat dared to stay nearby.

Chen Jingle is very proud.

It is estimated that the cat community has begun to spread that there is a humanoid monster that can speak their words.

certainly.

Just chase him away so that no one will notice that he is meowing like a cat. Maybe tomorrow there will be all kinds of weird stories in the village, such as saying that he was possessed by a cat monster and hit evil spirits.

A new rural legend emerges.

Oh~

Don’t underestimate the ability of gossipy women in rural areas to spread rumors.

If you are delivering food outside, they can say that you are selling food outside.

Even if you are as strong as Chen Jingle, you should be careful with your tail between your legs when you return to the village.

…

[Practice time is up. Although smart babies need to learn theoretical knowledge, they are also inseparable from hands-on practice. Children Chen Jingle are asked to choose one of the four compulsory courses of cooking, planting, breeding, and health care to start learning. The time is limited to one hour. Baby, you must be able to do it, right? 】

After a 10-minute break, the system prompt appears again.

Another practical class.

But this time Chen Jingle did not choose planting, but cooking.

He has already experienced the practical planting class, and now he wants to see what the practical cooking class is like.

After the course started, Chen Jingle didn't notice any difference and didn't take it seriously.

I walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator, which contained a lot of ingredients.

At this time, something magical happened!

As soon as the ingredients appeared in Chen Jinngle's sight, various dishes related to the ingredients immediately appeared in his mind, some as main ingredients and some as auxiliary ingredients.

Chen Jingle had never even heard of many dishes, but at this moment they were popping up in his mind.

What's even more amazing is that he actually feels that he has mastered the essence of this dish, and the feeling of being possessed by a master appears again.

Only this time it's a cooking master.

"hiss…"

Chen Jingle took a deep breath and widened his eyes.

"I feel like this effect is even more exaggerated than the planting skill!"

Probably because he is more familiar with cooking than with growing flowers, so he feels it more. This knowledge is not something that ordinary chefs can master, at least a star hotel chef, or even a master.

It's an extraordinary talent, plus a technique that can only be mastered after countless practices!

As for how strong it can be...

You won’t know until you try it.

What are you waiting for? Start it!

…

"How about some pot-wrapped pork?" Chen Jingle pondered. There happens to be a small piece of tenderloin in the refrigerator, which is leftover from making chili stir-fried broth and rice at noon. With other accessories, it is not a problem to make pot pork.

Guobaorou is a classic Northeastern dish. Chen Jingle has never made it, but he has eaten it and was quite impressed.

The first impression is that it is delicious. One person can finish most of the plate without feeling tired.

And when the idea of ​​pot-roasted pork came to his mind, various techniques for making this dish immediately poured out like spring water.

At this moment, Chen Jingle felt like he was a talented chef!

Ah, is this what it feels like to be a boss?

"Watch me show off my skills!"

At this moment, he is full of ambitions, gearing up, and can't wait.

There are not many ingredients required for Guobao Pork. Tenderloin is the key, then shred onions, ginger, garlic, shredded carrots, and a few coriander sticks.

As for pepper cooking wine, they are also available in home kitchens.

Everything is ready!

…

Start by cutting the tenderloin into slices.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

In order to make it more delicious, you have to pat both sides of the meat slices with a knife and then marinate them.

This is something only an experienced cook knows, and Chen Jingle knows it at his fingertips.

Next prepare the water starch.

After the soaked starch has settled, pour away the layer of water on the surface and use the rest to hang the slurry.

Adjust another sauce. The juice of the pot pork is the key. Some places have sweet and sour sauce, some have tomato juice, and some have orange juice.

There is water and soil on one side and food culture on the other.

It doesn’t say which one must be used, it comes down to personal preference.

If the sauce is not mixed well, this dish will easily fail.

However, Chen Jingle, who had never cooked this dish before, prepared it "just by feeling".

Take some chopsticks and taste it, yes, that’s the ratio!

For a dish that requires deep-frying, Momian-level oil consumption is a must. Fortunately, the oil can be reused, so daily cooking is no problem.

Heat the oil to 60% and fry the meat slices three times.

The first time is to deep-fry it until it is completely set, the second time is to lock in the moisture inside so that it doesn’t taste bad, and the third time is to color it and fry it until it’s crispy, achieving the effect of being charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

Chen Jingle rarely makes this kind of fried dishes, but at this moment, every step is done with ease, without any panic, and he performs it perfectly.

The last thing is hanging juice.

Use some base oil to sauté the ingredients, bring the reduced sauce to a boil, then pour in the fried meat slices, tossing the spoon back and forth so that each piece of meat is evenly coated with the sauce, and set aside for later use.

In this way, a pot of meat is ready.

fragrant!

Sweet and sour ones are the most appetizing.

Just smelling this fragrance makes people salivate!

During the frying process, the fumes were unpleasant, but when the dish was finished, only the aroma remained.

The entire kitchen was filled with the aroma of pot-roasted meat. The aroma floated outside on the wind and immediately attracted the attention of the neighbors.

"Where does the smell of meat come from?"

"What is that kid next door doing at home? Does it smell so good?"

"It's only around three o'clock and you're already cooking?"

"Eating meat every day is so luxurious, and you don't know how to live at all!"

“…”

There is no doubt that they are all greedy for Chen Jingle's hotpot meat.

It's a pity that they don't have good taste, Chen Jingle is destined to have it all to himself.

"Eat!"

He decisively picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

After finishing the first piece, he felt the explosion of pleasure in his taste buds. He was a little unbelievable: "This, this is really what I did?!"
