Chapter 102: Invulnerable
Bai Renzong winked at Han Jiayi, then cleared his throat and prepared to start.
"Wait, wait a moment!" Han Jiayi grabbed his wrist and asked nervously: "What are you going to do?! You can ask me in advance first! Otherwise, I won't keep up with your rhythm later!"
"Just like usual, I will criticize him, and you can prove that I am right." Bai Renzong frowned.
"Are you sure you want to swear by him?! These French dishes are very authentic!" Han Jiayi said seriously.
"Why do you deliberately emphasize 'very'?" Bai Renzong said unhappily, "Believe me! Go and wait for cooperation."
As he said that, Bai Renzong turned to the Frenchman and smiled: "Mr. Bischel, as long as you make delicious dishes, everyone will like them. This has nothing to do with whether it suits your appetite. I think the powerful basic skills reflected in these French dishes you have undoubtedly proved that you are a chef with a long time..."
Bai Renzong said here, and the OL was translating.
Hearing the last time, the other party nodded with satisfaction, but at this time Bai Renzong's face darkened: "But."
As he said that, Bai Renzong turned to the empty plates behind him: "These dishes themselves still have shortcomings, and there is room for improvement."
After listening to the translation, Laurenter was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily, looking at Bai Renzong and said something with a smile.
Although Bai Renzong couldn't understand French, he could know the general meaning of the other party in terms of tone and expression: This guy is so humorous that he actually wants to give me some advice on French cuisine. I made more French cuisine than you have ever eaten.
"He said you are so humorous..." Han Jiayi translated in a low voice.
"I know." Bai Renzong said lightly.
"Have you learned French?!" Han Jiayi asked in surprise.
"No, but I have studied human pretentious behavior." Bai Renzong said, turning to Laurenter and laughed: "I know you may be thinking that such a stinky boy has eaten more French cuisine than I have made. What can he know? But I can tell you through the actual situation that I am right."
As he said that, Bai Renzong grabbed Han Jiayi's shoulder and pulled her in front of him: "It just so happens that the cute lady next to me is also good at French cuisine. If you agree to lend us the kitchen, I will ask her to make a completely identical dish so that you can judge which one is better for yourself."
"Cute lady..." Han Jiayi raised her eyebrows and felt a little proud: Why did he just say I was cute? Do I have no other advantages?
The other party whispered to the translator, and then spread his arms freely, meaning "welcome".
Although this store is very famous in Nanhua City, it has not been long since opened in Beichang City. In addition, it is almost eight o'clock, so there are very few customers in the store now, so it's okay to lend them the kitchen.
The two of them then came to the kitchen, and the other chefs in the kitchen consciously avoided it.
"This is your field, I can only give you advice." Bai Renzong picked up his arm and said.
Han Jiayi asked timidly: "What do you want me to do?"
"Reproduce the dishes he made, but it will be improved by me." Bai Renzong replied.
These dishes are all classic French cuisine, and Han Jiayi knows it very well. It is not difficult to reproduce them, but it is difficult to surpass the other party.
The basic skills of the past few decades are not enough. Just like Han Jiayi's craftsmanship and Bai Renzong's seasoning, it is impossible to surpass the other party in a proper manner, so you can only do some small moves.
However, this is only for Han Jiayi.
Because in the minds of people like Han Jiayi who study French cuisine, these French cuisine are simply textbooks, and everyone makes it according to this textbook.
So, commenting on these dishes is equivalent to commenting on the concept of "French cuisine" itself...
But so what? Textbooks are also written by people!
The problem-solving method in textbooks may be correct, but is it necessarily the best?
"Are you sure? I'm a little..." Han Jiayi shivered a little when she started, "If you change the French baked snail method, maybe it tastes better, but it's not French baked snail..."
"So what's wrong? That's called the new French baked snail!" Bai Renzong said angrily, "Anyway, I just want you to make a delicious dish than that old man! Let him be proud... Besides, I won't change that big. Hurry up and be obedient."
"Oh..." Han Jiayi responded and reluctantly became busy in front of the stove.
Soon, the same four dishes were served in front of Laurent Bischel.
Salmon whole egg stuffed, French onion soup, French baked snails, French fried foie gras.
Laurent's expression looked puzzled: Isn't this exactly the same as what I did?
But he still tasted it for face. When he first sipped the whole salmon egg, he raised his eyebrows and realized the subtle differences: although it tasted the same flavors, each taste was stronger and the layering was more distinct.
Laurent looked at Bai Renzong in confusion, as if he didn't understand why there was such a big gap.
"I asked this beauty to replace seaweed salt with seaweed crumbs." Bai Renzong replied, "Use the umami flavor of seaweed to enlarge the flavor of egg liquid and salmon itself, and the roasted seaweed itself also has a certain salty flavor. It is equivalent to adjusting the amount of seaweed and salt, which can better highlight the umami flavor of the materials itself."
As Miss OL translated, a hint of surprise appeared on Laurenter's face.
Then he immediately tasted the French onion soup behind, pondered for a while, and then asked a few questions.
"Mr. Bisher asked, what spices can control such a whole soup?" asked the translator.
"It's not a spice, but an oil. Only oil can make the fragrance of a dish form a whole." Bai Renzong briefly explained, "Although olive oil has its unique fragrance, the fragrance of olive oil will be weakened with heating, so this fragrance is ultimately completely covered by the taste of butter. So I used tea seed oil, and the aroma of this oil is stronger, and the layering finally formed is naturally higher."
I learned it from the boiled fish of "late rice"! Han Jiayi secretly glanced at Bai Renzong and thought to herself: I hate it, suddenly I think he is so handsome, and I actually challenged a chef of this level...
At this time, Han Jiayi shook her head quickly: Han Jiayi, please send it to yourself, you will be moved!
Including the subsequent French baked snails and French fried foie gras, Bai Renzong all further enriched the taste and layering of these dishes by changing some details while basically maintaining the original recipe.
Lawrence Bischel's dishes are excellent, but talking about perfection in front of God's tongue is not enough.
In layman's terms, it's... I used the tongue of God to teach you a lesson today. Are you convinced?
How long does French cuisine last? Does Chinese cuisine have a long history? Chinese cuisine is still improving. Why can't you give your opinions or improve your French cuisine? Joke!
After listening to the translation, Laurent finally stopped doubting, but laughed relievedly, stepped forward and held Bai Renzong's hand, and whispered.
Han Jiayi whispered from the side: "He said your understanding of French cuisine is really profound..."
"Where is your cooking skills, you are also very exquisite." Bai Renzong also whispered together in business, "But even classics can be improved with the times, so that they can always be favored by everyone. This is what I learned from an old store in our city that has been around for decades."
Laurent had a serious expression and was chattering for a while.
"He said he had a question and hoped you could help him answer..." Han Jiayi whispered beside him.
