Hardcore Chef Dad

Chapter 489: Worried about business being too good (first update)

Views:

The dinner at Su Ji that night was very sumptuous. Feng Yifan used some of the leftover ingredients and made a sumptuous dinner for everyone.

What the children like most is, of course, the fried rice that their father Feng makes for them using the broth of roast goose.

The fried rice becomes more fragrant after adding the roast goose broth and oil.

When the food was served, Feng Yifan even added a few pieces of boneless roast goose meat for the children and poured his own plum sauce on top.

The three little girls looked at the roast goose fried rice in front of them, their faces filled with excitement.

Feng Ruoruo also gave a special introduction to her grandpa, grandma and mother.

"Grandpa, grandma, mom, look quickly, this is the roast goose fried rice that dad made for us. This fried rice uses the roast goose soup, which tastes especially fragrant. The roast goose meat and the sauce on top are all very delicious. You can try some too."

While introducing, the little girl picked up the plate and brought it in front of her grandpa, grandma and mother, letting them have a taste.

Seeing Feng Ruoruo being so enthusiastic, the three elders also scooped up some with small spoons and tasted it.

After taking a bite, Su Ruoxi felt that this fried rice tasted really good.

The key point is that it originally looked like it should be greasy, but with the addition of plum jam, the greasy taste was neutralized, and the slightly sour taste made it very delicious.

This is different from the fried rice my husband made before. Although the color of the fried rice is reddish and not as beautiful as gold wrapped in silver or broken gold, it looks just as good because there is roast goose meat on the side, and the taste is even more unique.

Su Jinrong took a small bite and savored it carefully. He had to admit that some of his son-in-law's innovations were indeed great.

When Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei saw Feng Ruoruo giving the food to the elders, the two little girls also learned to give the food to their parents.

Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents have also been taken in by her father Yang Zhiyi.

Seeing their little granddaughter take the initiative to give them a taste of fried rice, the old couple were all smiles, and felt it was really a happy thing to have their little granddaughter around.

After tasting the fried rice that Feng Yifan made for the children, everyone thought it was really delicious.

The flavor of the roast goose soup is blended into the rice, and it tastes really delicious when eaten with plum sauce.

Then take another bite of the goose meat. The crispy skin and juicy goose meat are really appetizing. After one bite, you will want to take a second bite and you can't stop at all.

After tasting it, Chen Shoulin waited for Feng Yifan to come out from the kitchen to serve the dishes, and then said to him: "Yifan, your fried rice is great. If you sell this fried rice at your stall, I believe your business will be very hot."

Feng Yifan put the dish down and responded with a smile: "This is also a kind of exploration. It can be regarded as making the best use of things."

Yang Huaicheng went on to say: "It is really not easy to use all kinds of ingredients and make them so delicious."

Chen Shoulin nodded in agreement: "Yes, this is what a true master chef can do."

When Lu Cuiling heard the two people praising her son non-stop, she smiled and said, "You guys are praising him too much. I think it's just fried rice. It tastes really good, but it's still a little greasy."

Li Xiuchun smiled and said, "Sister, you are too demanding as a mother. Grandpa Feifei and I have been to many restaurants around the world. The best chefs can bring out the best flavors of the ingredients. But the best masters are often able to make delicious dishes without using the best ingredients."

Chen Shoulin agreed: "Yes, being able to be innovative? Using seemingly simple ingredients, but still being able to make delicious dishes? This is a higher level of cooking master."

When Feng Ruoruo heard this, she immediately asked, "Grandpa Chen, is my dad the most powerful one?"

Chen Shoulin smiled and said, "Grandpa doesn't know this either? But Grandpa thinks that Ruoruo's father is the best chef Grandpa has ever eaten."

After getting this answer, the little girl was quite satisfied and threw herself into her father's arms with a smile.

"Dad, look, you are the best."

Feng Yifan hugged his daughter and said with a smile: "Thank you Ruoruo, and thank you Feifei's grandfather. With your encouragement, Dad will definitely work harder."

Next, Feng Yifan served all the dishes and everyone sat down to have dinner together.

Before dinner, Xixi's grandmother couldn't help but say, "Oh, we come to Su Ji to eat every day. We can eat such rich and beautiful dishes every day. We don't want to go home and cook for ourselves."

Yang Xiaoxi said to her grandmother: "Grandma, it's okay, we can come to Ruoruo's house to eat every day."

Hearing her daughter's words, Li Feier rushed over and said with a smile: "You can't come here every day. Starting tomorrow, your father Feng will go to set up a stall to do business, so he won't have time to cook for us like this."

When Yang Xiaoxi heard her mother say this, she was a little surprised: "Will we not be able to eat what Father Feng cooks tomorrow? No."

The little girl dropped the spoon in her hand, jumped off her seat, and quickly ran to Father Feng.

Yang Xiaoxi reached out and hugged Father Feng and said, "Xixi still wants to eat Father Feng's food every day."

Feng Yifan reached out and hugged Yang Xiaoxi, smiling and wanting to explain to the little girl.

But before Dad could say anything, Feng Ruoruo, who was sitting next to Dad, said, "Xixi, you can go to my Dad's stall to eat. We can set up a stall with Dad, and then eat together at the snack stand. You can also eat Dad's food, you won't miss out."

Chen Yaofei echoed at this time: "Yes, Xixi, we can still eat it every day."

The words of the three little girls made their parents very happy.

Li Feier waved to her daughter and said, "Okay, Xixi, come back and sit down and have a good meal. If we want to eat Father Feng's food in the future, we can go to where Father Feng sets up his stall."

Yang Xiaoxi quickly ran back to her mother and dived into her arms.

Li Feier was startled when her daughter suddenly got into her arms. She quickly pushed her daughter away and wiped her mouth with a tissue.

"Oh, look at you. You didn't even wipe the oil off your mouth. You're going to dirty my clothes by jumping into my arms like this."

Yang Xiaoxi asked her mother to wipe her mouth while pouting and saying, "Mom, you are so conceited."

Her daughter's words made Li Fei'er laugh and cry, but it caused the other adults to laugh.

Li Feier gently pinched her daughter and said, "You little thing, how dare you say that mom is conceited? When did mom become conceited? Every time mom is with you and dad, she doesn't dare to wear pretty clothes. And you still say that mom is conceited. I think you are the conceited little thing."

Yang Xiaoxi pouted and said, "No, Xixi is not conceited, it's mom who is conceited."

Seeing the mother and daughter arguing like this made everyone laugh even louder.

Finally, Li Feier couldn't convince her daughter, so she looked at her husband and patted him: "You only know how to eat, you should also take care of your daughter. Look at your daughter now, she is getting wilder and wilder, and she even dares to talk to her mother like this."

Yang Zhiyi looked helpless, and could only reach out to hold his daughter and said, "Xixi, you can't talk about your mother like that."

Yang Xiaoxi was in her father's arms, pouting her lips and saying, "But mommy won't let me hug her, saying that my mouth is oily and Xixi's mouth is not oily, so mommy is just vain."

Li Feier was left in tears and amused by her daughter's unreasonable arguments.

"There's no oil on your mouth now because mommy wiped it clean with a tissue."

Yang Xiaoxi still refused to accept the news: "No, Xixi has a very clean mouth."

When Li Feier saw her daughter's willful behavior, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was speechless for a moment and felt that she couldn't convince her daughter.

At this time, Chen Yaofei came over and said, "Xixi, there was oil on your lips just now. Auntie wiped it off for you."

After hearing what Chen Yaofei said, Yang Xiaoxi immediately stopped insisting.

"Really? Feifei, did you see it?"

Chen Yaofei nodded: "Yes, I saw it. Your mouth was oily just now, and then Auntie rubbed oil on you. It's very difficult to wash off the oil on your clothes."

Feng Ruoruo, who was sitting next to her father, also said, "Xixi, you need to apologize to your aunt."

What surprised Li Feier was that her daughter, who had been so willful and against her the moment before, actually apologized to her after Feng Ruoruo said she wanted to apologize.

"I'm sorry, Mom. It was Xixi who made the mistake."

Seeing her daughter become well-behaved at this moment, Li Feier really couldn't get angry at all.

Finally, Li Feier could only gently pinch her daughter's face: "Okay, Mommy accepts Xixi's apology. Mommy won't be angry with Xixi. Let's eat quickly."

Then, the three little girls continued to eat, because after eating the fried rice, the little girls only needed to eat some vegetables.

Li Feier turned her head to look at Feng Yifan, and in front of everyone, formally asked about the recording of the program.

"Chef Feng, when will you have time to go to the TV station to record a show?"

Feng Yifan smiled and responded, "Everyone has been asking this before, but I don't have time recently because I have to set up a stall tomorrow. In the next few days, I have to help my apprentices get familiar with the new environment. If possible, can we wait a little longer? Or you can ask my uncle to record first."

Li Feier shook her head and said, "It's definitely not enough for Mr. Zhuang alone. I think it would be more popular if you two were paired together."

Chen Shoulin took over and said, "Of course, everyone is looking forward to the combination of Yifan and Mr. Zhuang. That combination is more in line with everyone's expectations."

Then everyone nodded, thinking that such a combination would indeed be more exciting.

Feng Yifan smiled helplessly and said, "But, it's definitely not possible in the next few days. How about giving me a week? I'll help Ruifeng get familiar with the business first. When the business is stable, I can record a program for you."

Li Feier thought for a moment and said, "Well, that's fine. One week from now, it might be the semi-finals of the cooking competition at Fujing Building."

Feng Yifan asked curiously, "By the way, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about the cooking competition at Fujing Building. How was the cooking competition going over there? Did my senior brother Zhang Fenglin advance successfully?"

Li Feier smiled and said, "Chef Feng is really busy. Don't you even have time to watch TV?"

Hearing this, Feng Yifan also responded with a smile: "I really don't have time. I've been quite busy these past few days."

Su Ruoxi said to her husband, "You really don't care about Brother Zhang at all. The competition has been going on for two days, and it's not Brother Zhang's turn yet."

Feng Yifan nodded and said, "Oh, so I think my senior brother will be fine."

Li Feier went to watch the competition today and nodded, saying, "It's true. In today's competition, the two contestants' cooking skills are probably not as good as Brother Zhang Fenglin's."

Feng Yifan then asked, "By the way, what about Qi Deqiang?"

Li Feier thought for a moment and said, "He is also a strong contender, and one of the stronger ones among the top 16."

Through Li Feier's narration, Feng Yifan finally had some understanding of the competition process.

The top sixteen teams will be drawn into groups and compete in pairs.

Two groups compete each day in the competition, competing in knife skills, cooking skills, plating, and the taste of the final dish.

There are no designated dishes for the top 16 competition, and each contestant can choose his or her own dish.

But the judges will still give a theme every day, and the contestants are required to cook according to the theme.

The complexity of the dish will also be reflected in the three scoring items of knife skills, cooking skills and plating. Of course, the most important hard indicator is the final taste test.

If you make a very complicated dish and it doesn’t taste good, it’s still likely to be a failure.

After listening to Li Feier's introduction, Feng Yifan nodded and said, "It's really complicated, isn't it? What are the themes of the competitions in the next two days?"

Li Fei'er replied: "The theme of the first day is freshwater fish, and the theme of the second day is vegetarian."

Feng Yifan was a little surprised: "These two themes are really difficult. There are many river fish to choose from, but it is not easy to cook them well.

As for 'vegetarian', this topic is more abstract, and vegetarian cooking is more difficult."

Su Jinrong also spoke up at this time: "River seafood emphasizes freshness; vegetarian food emphasizes taste."

Feng Yifan helped his father-in-law explain to everyone: "As the name of river fresh food suggests, the focus must be on the freshness. It is not easy to highlight the freshness, and the flavor cannot be overpowering during the cooking process.

As for vegetarian dishes, the taste is even more important. If you want to make vegetarian dishes delicious, the taste is not easy to make. "

Listening to Feng Yifan's detailed explanation, Li Feier smiled and said, "So, our program still needs Chef Feng. Chef Feng should come out to explain and cook two dishes for everyone, so that everyone can experience the characteristics of various dishes more intuitively."

Feng Yifan smiled and pointed at the dishes on the table: "In fact, my table today also has a full range of seafood and vegetarian dishes."

Li Feier immediately said: "So, I should ask Meng Shitong and the others to come over today and take pictures of Chef Feng's dishes today for tomorrow's "Fei Chang Zhi Zhi" program."

Feng Yifan was stunned when he heard this, then quickly waved his hands: "No, no, those two dishes last time have already caused Su Ji's door to be almost broken down. If they come again this time, I'm afraid that our small stall tomorrow may be crowded with people."

At this point, Feng Yifan pleaded, "We are a small business, please let us go."

Everyone present was stunned when they saw this scene, and then everyone started laughing.

While other vendors and restaurants are worried about having no business, Feng Yifan is worried that his business is too good. If other bosses find out, they will want to steal his money from behind at night.
