The process of processing pig heads can be said to be very cumbersome, and if it is not handled properly, the pig head will have a strong fishy smell and the whole dish will become inedible.
Whether it was the people from the provincial TV station brought by Li Feier, or Meng Shitong's team.
Later, even the local TV station in Huaicheng sent people over to film the event.
Under the lenses of various filming equipment and the gazes of many friends and relatives, Feng Yifan always remains calm and composed.
Feng Ruoruo seemed to know that her father was about to start cooking the big dish, so the little girl pulled her two sisters to watch from a distance beside their mother.
When Dad was about to take action, Feng Ruoruo immediately shouted, "Come on, Dad."
Yang Xiaoxi followed suit and shouted, "Come on, Dad Feng."
Chen Yaofei also shouted: "Come on, Dad Feng."
Feng Yifan looked at the three little girls, a smile appeared on his face, then he raised his fist to the little girls and made a cheering gesture.
Then, Feng Yifan took out the flamethrower and burned the pig's head.
The entire pig's head was burned into charcoal black.
Seeing this scene, people who came to take pictures were a little surprised. They didn't understand why a flamethrower was needed to burn the pig's head black
At this time, Zhuang Daozhong spoke up: "The reason why we use a flamethrower to burn the surface of the pig's head black is to clean the hair on the pig's head. At the same time, burning it in this way can also effectively remove the fishy smell of the pig's head itself."
Su Jinrong then said: "If you stew pork elbows at home, you can also use a similar method, put it on the stove at home to burn it, and then wash off the burnt part, you can remove the hair and the fishy smell at once."
After hearing this, everyone nodded, feeling that they had learned something new.
Feng Yifan carefully burned every part of the pig's head.
In fact, when they saw the pig head, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei were a little scared, but Feng Ruoruo was not scared at all.
Seeing her father using a flamethrower to burn the pig's head black, the little girl was surprised and said, "Oh, the pig's head turned black. Did Dad turn the pig into an African pig?"
Hearing the little girl's words, everyone present couldn't help but laugh.
But Feng Ruoruo's words made Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei no longer afraid and laughed.
Then, Feng Yifan used warm water to clean the burnt black surface of the pig's head.
Zhuang Daozhong said again: "Be sure to use warm water, not cold water to wash it."
After rinsing, Feng Yifan placed the pig's head on the chopping board, wiped the water on the surface with a clean cloth, then opened his knife box and picked out a handy knife.
Seeing Feng Yifan took out the knife, Su Jinrong said, "Okay, Ruoruo, Xixi and Feifei, please step aside for now. The following part is not suitable for children to watch."
When Feng Ruoruo heard what her grandfather said, she pouted in dissatisfaction: "Grandpa, why don't you let Xixi, Feifei and I watch it?"
Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei didn't say anything. The two little girls were a little scared, so they didn't want to watch.
Lu Cuiling pulled her granddaughter and said, "Dad is going to do something very scary now. Ruoruo will be scared if she sees it. What if she has a nightmare at night?"
Feng Ruoruo saw that her grandmother was speaking very seriously, and the little girl couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"Grandma, are you really scared?"
Lu Cuiling said, "Yes, that's why grandpa doesn't let Ruoruo, Xixi and Feifei watch. Let's go out and play for a while, okay? It just so happens that your great aunt brought the kids here, so let's take the kids out to play, and when we're done playing, we'll come back for lunch at noon, okay?"
Su Lanxin also said: "Yes, let's go out and play together."
Yang Xiaoxi said: "Ruoruo, let's not watch it."
Chen Yaofei said: "Yes, yes, Ruoruo, I'm already scared, let's not watch it."
Seeing the two little sisters say this, Feng Ruoruo also nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's go out and play."
Afterwards, the grandparents, Su Ruoxi and Su Lanxin took the children and left Su Ji.
After the children left, Feng Yifan looked at the rest of the people and said, "The scene that's about to happen will indeed be a bit cruel, so if you can't stand it, you'd better leave early."
The remaining ladies looked at each other, and finally they all left.
However, there were also people like Meng Shitong and He Yaqian who stayed and wanted to see the pig head being disassembled with their own eyes.
Even Su Ji's door was closed.
Everything was ready, and Feng Yifan finally started.
He started cutting the pig's mouth with the knife in his hand.
Cut the pig's snout open to both sides, and then start cutting the meat off the bones little by little from the snout along the bones.
In the following process, everyone present truly witnessed Feng Yifan's amazing knife skills.
He only had an ordinary-looking kitchen knife in his hand.
But using just this kitchen knife, Feng Yifan carefully deboned the pig's head bit by bit.
In this process, if you encounter some thin areas, the skin and flesh may be broken if you are not careful.
Once the skin and flesh are broken, the roasted whole pig head will no longer be complete.
As time went by, the heavy pig's head kept turning in Feng Yifan's hands, and the knife in his hand was carefully cutting along the bone bit by bit.
Everyone was watching intently, no one dared to say a word, not even to breathe.
Finally, after careful cutting and scraping, Feng Yifan gradually removed the pig's skull.
At this moment, everyone standing by and watching admired his knife skills.
At the same time, what is even more admirable is Feng Yifan's patience and stability.
Zhuang Zhebin muttered in a low voice: "His hands are really steady."
Shi Tao, who was standing beside him, echoed in a low voice: "It is very stable. There will be almost no deviation."
After hearing this, Zhuang Zhebin immediately turned his head and looked at Shi Tao.
He already knew that Shi Tao had gotten the chance to stay at Su Ji, which made Zhuang Zhebin a little jealous.
On the other side of Shi Tao, Yu Chao, who came with his uncle Yu Quan, said nothing and stared at Feng Yifan's every move, as if he wanted to write them all down.
At the same time, next to Hans and Tom, Rodney also brought two young men over this time.
The two young men stared at Feng Yifan removing the bones of the pig's head with their eyes wide open, looking a little stunned.
Finally, after a not-too-long wait, Feng Yifan completed deboning the pig's head.
What was left was a pig's head with almost only bones left, and the entire pig's face, including the ears and nose, had been peeled off.
Seeing this, Zhuang Daozhong took the lead in applauding Feng Yifan.
Afterwards, everyone in Su Ji applauded Feng Yifan together.
After the applause, Zhuang Daozhong sighed, "I saw another pig head being disassembled. Yifan, you are just as good as Ruoxi's grandfather. As expected, you have shouldered the inheritance of Su Ji."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "I haven't done this for a long time, so my hands are still a little rusty, but fortunately what I took off is still intact."
Chen Wei said: "You have done very well. My master could only do as well as you did."
Shi Jinbin said to Su Jinrong: "Jinrong, I never thought that we would have the opportunity to witness this scene."
Su Jinrong also had a smile on his face. He was really happy today because he witnessed the process of disassembling the pig's head bones again.
The son-in-law is just like his father back then. He can peel off the pig's face completely without breaking it. He has really inherited Su Ji's craft.
Next, Feng Yifan disassembled the bones of the other two pig heads in the same way.
The whole process is becoming more and more proficient, and the speed is gradually increasing.
Chen Wei saw Feng Yifan deboning the other two pig heads and couldn't help but laugh and said, "I thought Yifan had demonstrated to us old guys how to do the other two pig heads."
When Feng Yifan heard this, he immediately smiled and asked, "Uncle Master, can you do this?"
This question instantly stumped Chen Wei. He looked at his other brothers and could only wave his hands: "I'm afraid none of us brothers can do this job. I'm afraid only your tenth uncle has done it in the past, but I'm afraid he may not be able to peel off a pig's face so well now, right?"
Seeing that the topic was directed to him, Shi Jinbin said calmly, "I definitely can't do that now. Among my disciples, maybe one can remove the bones after cooking, but it is probably impossible to remove the whole pig face like this now."
At this point, Shi Jinbin said to his grandson: "Shi Tao, since you are staying in Su Ji, you must work hard. If you can learn this skill one day, then your apprenticeship in Su Ji will not be in vain."
Zhuang Daozhong said to Zhuang Zhebin, "How is it? They have already stayed at Su Ji, shouldn't you also work hard?"
When Zhuang Zhebin heard his great-grandfather's words, he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Yu Chao suddenly stood up and said, "Uncle Feng, I also want to stay in Su Ji, please let me stay."
Yu Quan was a little dazed. He had not expected that his nephew, who had always been introverted, would seize the opportunity at this time and take the initiative to ask Feng Yifan to stay.
Feng Yifan looked at Yu Chao, then at Yu Quan who brought him here.
Then he smiled and asked Yu Chao: "Shi Tao stayed, but he has not yet become my apprentice. He has to work as a waiter in Su Ji for three months. If he performs well after three months, I will let him join the kitchen. But if he wants to become my apprentice, he may need to go through some more tests."
Yu Chao said without thinking: "I am willing to go through this, please let me stay, Uncle Feng."
Seeing that Yu Chao had already expressed his opinion, and Feng Yifan obviously wanted to keep him.
Zhuang Zhebin also came to his senses and stepped forward and said, "Uncle, I want to stay too. I am willing to be a waiter first and then work in the kitchen like Brother Shi Tao. Please let me stay."
The young man and woman brought by Rodney also hurried forward when they saw this scene.
The man and the woman both looked foreign, but they had obviously studied before coming here, so they could both speak Chinese.
"Chef Feng, my name is Federer, and I also hope to stay here to study with you."
"Hello, Chef Feng, my name is Diana, and I hope to learn in your restaurant."
Feng Yifan saw that these four young people all wanted to stay.
In fact, when he saw them, Feng Yifan already knew that they wanted to stay, otherwise they would not have come here with their elders.
The two foreign young people brought by Rodney should be the young chefs of Perovence restaurant.
The two of them are coming to the Ruo Restaurant to study, probably because they were commissioned by the Perovence Restaurant.
So Feng Yifan responded to their two requests very directly.
"Whether you two want to stay or not depends on the attitude of the Perovence restaurant. Since you two are assigned by the restaurant and want to learn from me, the Perovence headquarters should give some thanks, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of my training for you?"
Feng Yifan spoke the following words directly to Rodney.
Rodney smiled and said, "The headquarters is willing to give you another 10% of the shares as a fee for your help in training Federer and Diana. Of course, as their uncle, I will also give you a private fee for the training."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Rodney, you know I'm not short of money now."
The smile on Rodney's face suddenly froze.
Feng Yifan said he was not short of money, which made Rodney feel a little embarrassed.
Rodney hesitated and asked, "So, Chef Feng, what kind of compensation do you hope to get?"
Feng Yifan thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I can let the two of them stay here. I can even let them not have to start as waiters. They can directly start learning from Catherine, Hans and Tom in Ruo Restaurant."
Hearing this, everyone present was a little surprised.
Including several young people who wanted to stay, everyone turned their eyes to the two foreigners.
Feng Yifan then said, "But, after the training is over, they must work in the restaurant I designate for three years."
Hearing this, Rodney and the two foreign young men were stunned.
Everyone else present was also a little surprised.
But before Rodney could speak, Diana rushed to say, "Chef Feng, I am willing to work in the restaurant you designate for three years."
Diana agreed without giving Rodney time to think further.
Federer saw that Diana had agreed, so he could only agree as well: "I do, too."
Seeing that the two young men agreed, Rodney had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, the two of them can work in the restaurant you designate for three years, and then they can return to Perovence Restaurant."
Feng Yifan nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it. After the New Year's Day holiday, bring them both and the contract here."
At this point, Feng Yifan added: "Don't forget to bring your shares and your money."
Rodney was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but want to say: Didn't you say you are not short of money
But in the end Rodney naturally didn't say it out loud.
Feng Yifan asked the two foreigners to stay. He looked at Zhuang Zhebin and Yu Chao and said, "Okay, you two go back to report to Su Liancheng, register and get the waiter uniforms, and then you two can start your work."
Upon hearing that they could stay, Zhuang Zhebin and Yu Chao were very excited and expressed their gratitude in unison.
