Chapter 2524: My neck is cold
Translator: 549690339
Yuan Zhou looked very young. With his fame and strength, it was quite normal for him to have a few disciples.
However, Alessandro was envious. He had lived for decades, but he had never met a talented apprentice.
For a moment, he felt a little dejected. Yuan Zhou didn’t know what Alessandro was thinking. Cheng zhaomei and the others had already thought so much while greeting him. On the other hand, he felt that it might be a nervous exchange. After thinking for a while, he decided to tell Alessandro his arrangement in detail again.
“We’ll go to the Western restaurant across the street to borrow the kitchen. The spices and other ingredients that Mr. Alessandro requested have been prepared. We’ll go and have a look now. If there’s anything we need, we can tell you in advance.” Yuan Zhou said.
After Alessandro nodded in agreement, he walked in front to lead the way. Li Li was already waiting at the entrance of the Western restaurant in a suit. From his expression, one could tell that he was very excited.
He had another special treatment. Although he didn’t think there was anything worth studying about the sausage, it was naturally different when Yuan Zhou took action.
The Western restaurant was diagonally opposite to the small restaurant. Therefore, they met each other in just a few steps. After a simple introduction, this time it was Li Li’s turn to walk in the front to lead the way for everyone.
Alessandro nodded in satisfaction as soon as he entered the s.p.a.cious and clean kitchen. The environment here was really good.
“Today’s purpose is to exchange knowledge, so the sausages we make need to be eaten on the spot. There’s no need to choose the type that needs to go through the complicated steps of drying and taking a long time to mature. We can directly make the type that can be eaten on the spot.” Yuan Zhou said while standing in front of the kitchen range.
Alessandro also knew that even though it was an exchange, it was impossible for them to spend months drying the sausages to retain their flavor. It would be meaningless and a waste of everyone’s time.
...
Having experienced the queuing incident yesterday, Alessandro also had the same feeling about Yuan Zhou’s busy schedule. Moreover, it was also time for him to make the sausages for storage once a year. Therefore, he couldn’t stay in China for too long.
He simply agreed, and then the two of them began to fight.
Alessandro had come here to prove that his sausage tasted better. However, as he felt that he was bullying Yuan Zhou, he decided to go all out. However, he wouldn’t take the outcome of the battle too seriously or make Yuan Zhou lose face.
“Shua shua shua,””shua shua shua”
As soon as they started, the two of them began to fall into their own rhythm. They were both first-cla.s.s craftsmen, and they had already thought about what kind of dish they wanted to make yesterday. Their movements were very fast and smooth, which was very comfortable to look at.
Alessandro was going to make his signature dish, pork trotter with meat, which was also called pork trotter sausage. Therefore, he had to choose a good pork trotter as the ‘sausage casing’ as the carrier of the minced meat.
With one look, he found something different. The trotters prepared here included several breeds of pigs, including the Mangalica pig, nicknamed sheep pig trotters, and some of the best parts of the meat. As the world’s best-tasting pig, there were relatively few of them. The process of feeding top-grade ingredients was definitely different from that of ordinary ingredients, which led to a small number.
To be honest, Alessandro was very surprised to see this breed of pig. After all, it was very difficult for him to get a sheep pig.
“I didn’t expect the head chef of this restaurant to be so good.” Alessandro sighed.
He had heard from Yuan Zhou that it was the head chef of this Western restaurant who had prepared the ingredients. If Li Li knew about his emotional sigh, he would definitely say that it was not because he had good means, but because Yuan Zhou’s name was too useful. It was just that when those people knew that he was preparing the ingredients for Yuan Zhou, they really took out all the ingredients they had.
Although Alessandro was surprised, he didn’t choose The Sheep Pig. It wasn’t the best, but the most suitable one.
In fact, in Italy in addition to pork trotter sausages, salami sausages were the most well-known. However, the biggest feature of salami sausages was that they did not need to be cooked after being pickled and air-dried, which was the key to creating a unique flavor of food.
However, the pork trotter sausage was different. It could still be air-dried, and because it needed to go through the cooking process, it could also be eaten on the spot. When choosing, he naturally chose this dual-use variety, which was also his own specialty.
If he had known earlier, the pig trotter sausage made by Italy’s Alessandro would definitely be hard to find.
Since Alessandro was already familiar with the process, he looked like a master when he started cooking.
From the very beginning, Barry didn’t look at him but at Yuan Zhou instead. He was very curious about Yuan Zhou, who had quite a good reputation in Europe.
Then, he saw a scene that shocked him.
What Yuan Zhou prepared was a fresh and made blood sausage, the Tibetan kind. Yesterday, Yuan Zhou had asked Li Li to prepare a live sheep for later use. There was nothing fresher than killing the sheep on the spot and taking its blood and meat. The purpose of the blood sausage was to eat it fresh.
Of course, he didn’t need the sheep provided by the system. Yuan Zhou felt that the ingredients should be equal in an exchange.
At the very beginning, Yuan Zhou was naturally going to kill the sheep. That was exactly what Barry saw. In fact, Barry wouldn’t be surprised by the killing of sheep. Even if he had never seen it before, he wouldn’t be so shocked.
But when you saw a person take only one knife and cook a sheep in the blink of an eye, it was worth being surprised.
In just a short while, the bleating sheep was lying on the countertop naked, as if it had taken off its clothes. It was so obedient that it looked like it had taken off its clothes and laid on the countertop.
“Hiss, it hurts!”
Bailey subconsciously bit the back of his hand, but he accidentally bit too hard. The sharp pain saved him the effort of rubbing his eyes, and he had already confirmed what he had just seen.
“Gudong”
Barry looked at the bright red blood that seemed to still be warm and felt a chill on his neck.
“How is it? our head chef Yuan’s cutting skills are good, right?”
Although it was a question, Li Li’s tone was quite certain. Even though he had seen Yuan Zhou’s magic-like cutting skills many times, he still felt that it was not a cutting skill that should exist in the human world. No one could do it.
“He is indeed very strong. As far as I know, there is no chef who can compare with him.” Bailey said.
To be honest, he had followed Alessandro around and seen the world before. He had also seen the National treasure chefs in Italy, but he had never seen anyone with such powerful cutting skills.
Barry had always been very confident in Alessandro’s chances of winning, but now he felt that they must have underestimated the other party’s strength. Now that there was a 50 – 50 chance, he had to bet his ident.i.ty as his a.s.sistant.
“That’s true. You can continue to watch carefully. Head chef Yuan’s cutting skills are simply a visual enjoyment.” Li Li said with pride.
What Yuan Zhou did next subverted Barry’s understanding since he was a child. He felt that the place where Yuan Zhou was standing was no longer under the jurisdiction of Newton’s law. Otherwise, how could such an unscientific thing happen?
