Mecha Era for Kitchen

Kano and his team rested for half a day at the place arranged by President Li, and went out the next day aimlessly around the central square of S5, and found nothing unusual—the chefs were still attending classes and seminars on time, the chefs The association is also operating step by step, and there is no difference between the small number of civilians living in S[-] and the staff responsible for taking care of fruits and vegetables compared with other places. S[-] is the smallest planet in the Six-Star Alliance. On the first night when they arrived here, the small scout ship explored the periphery of the entire planet under the protection of the mercenary guild's warships.

But the calmer it looked, the less at ease the few people felt.From the previous contact that did not receive a response to the inexplicable addition of so many new faces from the Chefs Association, there was no answer to every doubt.

Compared to their responsibilities, Chen Zikai was brought here as a 'passport', but the process of entering S[-] was unexpectedly smooth, so he didn't play a big role.After he got the permission to move freely, he went to the plantation to visit first, and then went to the farm to explore, but there he met Viola who was taking good care of a group of chicks.Chen Zikai still had a fresh memory of this lady's special shrill voice, so he ran away before meeting her face to face.

He even wanted to wander around the surrounding undeveloped mountains and forests to see if he could find some ingredients that the Chefs Association didn't know on this planet whose climate and geography were similar to Earth.It's a pity that before the words were spoken, it was time for the dinner party for the Chefs Association to welcome them.

President Li approached Chen Zikai with a smile before the banquet, and asked him, "I heard that you are also a chef?"

Chen Zikai was a little surprised that this fat old man who held the position of president of the Chef Association took the initiative to talk to him: "Yes."

"Where did you learn cooking? I checked the roster of the Chefs Association, but I didn't see your name."

Chen Zikai thought for a while: "I learned from the elders at home."

After hearing his answer, the fat old man's eyes lit up immediately, and then he asked his purpose for coming to Chen Zikai: "It happens that we still lack a staple food, is the young man interested?" Although President Li said it was a question, He said a few words, but the tone didn't mean to discuss at all, and there was a touch of arrogance, as if Chen Zikai should be honored to be able to give Chen Zikai a chance to cook.

Chen Zikai felt that this excuse was too much of a failure. Which family held a welcome banquet and even forgot to prepare the staple food?If you want to see what level you are, just say so.But he still nodded decently, and agreed: "No problem, leave it to me." Then thinking of the scene that happened in front of the association building the day before, he suddenly added with a smile, "Mr. President, can eggs be used?"

"Haha, of course." President Li stared at him for a while, nodded in satisfaction, beckoned for the staff in charge of the kitchen to take Chen Zikai away, and turned around to go to the banquet hall.

While following the staff, Chef Chen lamented in his heart that being a chef is such an unlucky job. Everyone else is going to the dinner party, and he has to show off before he can sit down to eat...

Chen Zikai, who was brought into the kitchen, looked at the fresh ingredients in front of him. They were almost all vegetables. He only saw a fat grass carp and a small box of grass shrimp on the far side. He didn't even see a trace of basic meat.

How to cook without meat? Even if the chef of s[-] is a vegetarian, do you have to bring him along?

Chef Chen curled his lips. He thought that there would be more choices in S[-], but he didn't expect that there were more and fresh vegetables, but there wasn't even big meat.The curry beef rice that was planned before could not be made, and the small buns and dumplings felt chewy without meat... I prepared a lot of egg flour for him, which can be used as a staple food of dragon beard noodles, but the ingredients seem to be not very complete.

Chen Zikai is not a professional pastry chef, but because he has worked in a big hotel for a long time, and then came out to open his own restaurant, he can cook everything.Back on Earth, Fourteen Buttons was the default definition of Longxu Noodles in the catering industry. With his craftsmanship, he was able to make Fourteen Buttons with [-] pieces of Longxu Noodles, which can be regarded as meeting the standard.Like those masters of snowflake dragon beard noodle with tens of fingers interlocked, even with tens of millions of fingers, he can only express his deep respect when he sees them.

The materials used for dragon whiskers are actually very simple, the difficulty lies in the process of changing from dough to dragon whiskers.

Chen Zikai kneaded the dough with eggs and flour, and skillfully rolled the dough on the countertop with his hands. He didn't stop until the dough reached the softness he wanted and was smooth with kneading.

Pulling a dragon's beard is a difficult job. Chen Zikai first grasps the two ends of the dough, exerts force evenly with both arms, and shakes it up and down rhythmically.Then cross over and over again until the noodles are smooth and smooth; the long noodles are placed on the white table, and Chen Zikai presses the noodles with both hands at the same time, taking the noodles in with the left hand and taking them out with the right hand at the same time. Knead the noodles and then work hard, lift the two ends, shake and stretch as hard as you can.After this action, Chef Chen put the noodles on the chopping board again, folded two pieces in half, and sprinkled them with noodles.The noodles cannot stick to each other, and this method has been continued, folded in half, buckled, and pulled into silk, until the No.14 buckle has been achieved.Chen Zikai felt that if he continued to make the noodles, his level noodles would be broken, so he stopped decisively and prepared for the last process.

In fact, the dragon beard noodles are very interesting when stretching noodles. The movements are chic and smooth, and they look very imposing. Unfortunately, no one in the banquet hall knows this, and Chen Zikai is too lazy to go over and perform for them. Therefore, no one appreciates Chef Chen's 'stunt'.

The temperature of the oil in the pot was carefully controlled by Chen Zikai, neither too high nor too low, and then he began to strictly follow the "three light" standard for the last step - he gently put the stretched noodles into the oil pot, Then I picked a pair of wooden long chopsticks and lightly flicked the noodles in the pot, deep-fried until stiff and light milky yellow, then took them out of the pot with very light force, and put them into a large plate prepared on the side—the dragon beard noodles. Even if the raw materials are ready.

Afterwards, the grass carp was added with simple seasoning, stewed into a delicious fish soup in the pot, and then the grass shrimp, eggs, mushrooms and pea pods were put into another pot, and two spoons of the freshly cooked fish soup were added. Boil on high for a few minutes.

Chen Zikai put the noodles into the soup, and other ingredients were neatly stacked on the noodles, and the soup was also poured into the pot together, and boiled briefly for 1 minute on high heat.

The noodles were fished out and put into a row of small bowls one by one. Chen Zikai sprinkled a handful of green onion and a pinch of chili powder one by one, and you're done!

Among the people attending the banquet, there was no Viola that I saw the day before, and there was no senior executive of the Chefs Association that Chairman Li said. Almost all the people present were acquaintances of the young masters and ladies.

There are quite exquisite stir-fried dishes on the table, but no matter how fried they are, that is, those few methods, this group of young elites with high quality of life are almost tired of eating.Led by Kano, this group of people's pursuit of food is not only satisfied with the taste, fresh food can arouse their appetite - and Chen Zikai, who has many cooking methods different from S[-], just meets this standard.

When Chen Zikai walked into the banquet hall with the result of his busy work for a long time, Olivia and Song Yiming, who had tasted his craftsmanship, all turned their necks handsomely to look at him.

Chen Zikai was taken aback by their bright eyes: "Why are you looking at me?"

Song Yiming smiled "hehehe": "Waiting for your delicious food! Come quickly! The dishes are almost eaten, only the staple food is left!"

A few staff members with a large tray set up bowls of Longxu noodles on the dining table. At first, some people didn’t pay much attention to this bowl of ordinary noodles, but after seeing the thickness of the noodles in the bowl, their eyes were all over. Almost straight.

The noodles in the bowl were so thin that they were almost as thin as hair, Olivia asked curiously, "What's this noodle called? Can it be made so thin?"

"This is the [-]-button Longxu noodles. Would you like to try it?" Chen Zikai grinned, and didn't want to explain, so he found an empty seat and sat down.

The chefs of the Chefs Association, especially the older ones, looked at the small bowl of noodles in front of them, and then looked at each other, with shock in their eyes-many of them had heard the name and understood it. The general approach has also been tried to make.Although it is also possible to make silky finished products, it has never been as thin as a hair like Chen Zikai.

President Li's small eyes squeezed into his chubby round face showed surprise, and then slowly turned into surprise.

"It's delicious!" Song Yiming stuffed his mouth full of noodles, and he didn't forget to praise Chen Zikai.

Olivia took a sip of the soup, then closed her eyes and savored it carefully. Chen Zikai was about to laugh at her, but found that an old man sitting next to her was in exactly the same posture.

The entire Chefs Association is fully committed to the important activity of tasting Longxu Noodles.

I don't know how the Chefs Association arranges the seats, or if there is no arrangement at all, everyone just does it at will. The seat Chen Zikai randomly found is just diagonally opposite Kano.He has always had a good habit of not stopping talking while cooking, using the excuse of tasting raw and cooked food, but now he has no appetite when he sits down, and he just slowly brings fresh fish soup to his mouth.

Kano is completely different from him, basically he doesn't care about other things when he has food.Chen Zikai felt that in addition to the Empire's war machine, this person should be nicknamed the Empire Foodie...

Chef Chen found that he didn't know when he began to appreciate the elegant and pleasing appearance of this beautiful major general.

Kano ate half a bowl of noodles, raised his head to find a tissue, and looked at Chen Zikai, who was looking diagonally across, with a warm smile on his cold face.

Just in time for Chen Zikai to put a spoon into his mouth, seeing him smile like this, the soup and swallowing movements were not in line, and he choked.
