Chapter 517: Cooking requires talent, but practice makes perfect



Dong Xunchang immediately frowned and scolded, "Why are you so panicky? Look at you, you look so ignorant!"

He was a bit fierce, and Qingtian was so scared that he couldn't help but move closer to Mrs. Ye.

When Elder Cen saw this, he immediately said, "Old Dong, why are you so fierce? You even scared my Qingtian."

Dong Xunchang's expression changed quickly. He put on a smile when facing Qingtian: "Don't be afraid, Qingtian. Grandpa Dong will make you a three-no-stick dish, okay?"

Sanbuzhan is a Beijing snack. It is very popular among children because of its bright yellow color, soft and sticky texture, and sweet and delicious taste.

Mr. Cen had bought Sanbuzhan before, and Qingtian liked it very much.

However, the three-no-stick snacks made by Dong Xunchang himself are naturally incomparable to those bought outside.

Mr. Cen even called out to Mrs. Ye, "Xiao Ying'er, come on, accompany me to the kitchen.

"It's been ages since Mr. Dong last held a wok, and I don't know if he can still do it."

Mrs. Ye was a little embarrassed and said, "Grandpa, this, this is not good, right?"

It’s fine if Mr. Cen wants to go and take a look. They are of similar age and seniority, and have been good friends for many years.

But no matter how you look at it, it seems inappropriate for Mrs. Ye to go to someone else's kitchen.

Dong Xunchang saw through Master Cen's intentions immediately and said, "If you want to steal my skills, just say it openly. Why are you being so secretive?"

When Mrs. Ye heard this, her face turned red and she was worried that Dong Xunchang would be angry.

But Master Cen said directly: "You already said that I stole the master's skills, so how can you call it stealing if you just say it directly?"

Dong Xunchang was left speechless.

"Alright, I'm too lazy to waste time talking to you." Dong Xunchang said, and he actually walked past Elder Cen and called to Sister Ye, "Come on, come with me and take a look. If you don't understand, ask."

"Just go when I tell you to go. What are you afraid of?" After hearing what Dong Xunchang said, Mr. Cen simply sat down again and let Mrs. Ye go by herself.

Although Mrs. Ye was a little embarrassed, she thought that Qingtian liked it, so she decided to learn it.

"Mom, I'll go with you!"

Mr. Cen was too lazy to follow, so Qingtian volunteered and followed Mrs. Ye out of the private room.

On the way to the kitchen, Dong Xunchang said, "This three-no-stick food uses very simple ingredients, just eggs, flour and sugar, so many people sell it outside.

“But if you want to make the three-no-stick dish well, there are still many details to pay attention to.

"As for whether the "three-no-stick" product is good or not, there is a saying in the industry: 'four don'ts and three looks'.

"The 'four no's' refer to no tightness, no stickiness, no oiliness and no water.

"And these 'three looks' refer to color, shape, and taste.

“The color must be bright golden.

“The appearance should be full and tense, even and without lumps.

“The taste must be rich, sweet, and oily but not greasy.

"Finally, the taste must be smooth, tender, and have a slight bite.

“If you can do all of these things well, then your three-no-stick product will be a success.”

He only remembered it after he finished speaking in one breath, and said to Mrs. Ye a little embarrassedly: "Oh, I said so much at once, you definitely can't remember it.

"But it doesn't matter. You'll know what's going on when you see me do it."

Qingtian, who was standing by, immediately said, "It's okay. I'll remember it for my mother."

Upon hearing this, Dong Xunchang looked at Qingtian curiously.

He had heard from Mr. Cen before that his great-granddaughter had an excellent memory and could remember everything she saw and heard.

But it's just hearsay.

He has never seen it before!

"Then can you repeat it roughly for me?" Dong Xunchang couldn't help but ask.

"Okay!" Qingtian often heard this kind of request, so he immediately repeated the 'four don'ts and three looks' that Dong Xunchang had just said.

Although I can't say that it is exactly the same, there is basically no difference.

Dong Xunchang originally thought that when Mr. Cen said that Qingtian had a good memory, it was just the old man's unconscious exaggeration and praise for the next generation.

He's the kind of child who might have two points of talent, but is insisted to be eight or nine points.

He had also thought before that if Qingtian could really say it, he would probably just repeat the meaning in a similar way.

Of course, for such a young child to be able to achieve what he thought was possible was already very good.

I never expected that Qingtian would tell me everything almost word for word.

Dong Xunchang subconsciously said: "Old Cen didn't exaggerate this time!

“No wonder I keep talking about sunny days lately.

"He's been really good at hiding it this time. It's been such a long time, and he hasn't even brought the child to meet us.

"If I had such a capable great-granddaughter, I would bring her around every day to show off."

After hearing this, Mrs. Ye felt a little warm in her heart.

She knew how much Mr. Cen loved sunny days and how much he wanted to show off the sunny days to his old friends.

But he never made such a request once, probably because he was afraid that doing so would make Mrs. Ye unhappy.

So Mrs. Ye thought to herself, should she take advantage of her father's return to invite all of Mr. Cen's friends to dinner and fulfill Mr. Cen's dream of showing off his great-granddaughter?

The more Mrs. Ye thought about it, the more she felt it was possible, and she didn't even notice when she walked into the kitchen.

Fortunately, Qingtian helped her and she didn't go too far.

Dong Xunchang was walking in front, so he didn't notice what was happening to Mrs. Ye.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and greeted him in unison.

"Hello, Master!"

"Hello, Master!"

"Well, you guys do what you need to do, just free up a stove for me."
