It's not time for the restaurant to officially open yet, and there are no customers coming. The chefs do have some time and want to see what miracles the boss, who has been very active in recent days, can create.
"Oh? What new ideas have you come up with, brave young boss? But I have to be frank! Everyone in the kitchen knows that you've only learned your cooking skills for a few days. If the food you cook isn't good enough, don't blame me for not buying it!"
Chef Guo was still as lively as ever, but his eyes were still full of curiosity.
To everyone's surprise, Yu Wuwei suddenly smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, this is the cooking skill passed down from my ancestors. I guarantee you won't be able to stop eating it after one bite!"
Damn, where does this mysterious confidence of yours come from, young boss?
It’s not that they haven’t considered that the young boss’s cooking and knife skills are average and are quite well hidden.
But this is different from knife skills. After all, there is no necessary connection between knife skills and cooking skills, and they may not be able to see it.
However, the young boss has been learning cooking skills with Chef Lao Guo these days, and they have seen that this guy is a complete rookie and absolutely a beginner with no foundation at all.
If they can't even see this, then haven't they been working as chefs for so many years in vain?
A beginner claims that the dishes he cooks are so delicious that a group of restaurant chefs can’t stop eating them. Would you believe it?
Yu Wuwei didn't expect them to believe it. This kind of thing was too outrageous. If he hadn't been able to go to heaven at night and meet the God of Cookery, and the God of Cookery hadn't just passed this dish to him, even he himself wouldn't believe it.
He knew that at this time, nothing he said would be of any use, and he had to produce the real product.
Adhering to the principle of never talking too much when you can get started, Yu Wuwei didn't say a word, just got the ingredients and started working.
The first thing was the food preparation. In this regard, the chefs in the kitchen had already witnessed the young boss's amazing knife skills yesterday, so they didn't find it strange to see Yu Wuwei's various magic tricks.
Then comes the actual cooking.
Yu Wuwei closed his eyes, held his breath, and then his mind was completely immersed in the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea recipe that the God of Cookery taught him last night, and then he suddenly opened his eyes.
Meanwhile, Yu Wuwei seemed to have entered a special state. His hands moved subconsciously, processing the various ingredients one by one according to the steps in the recipe, turning on the fire to cook. The series of actions were as smooth as flowing water and came to him effortlessly.
The chefs in the kitchen were dumbfounded again. Looking at the operation of this young boss, it was definitely not something a novice could do. He was simply a master chef who had been cooking professionally for decades!
Even Chef Lao Guo rubbed his eyes vigorously, his heart was already shocked!
Damn, if you have this ability, why the hell are you still learning cooking from me?
Chef Lao Guo felt that he had been deceived and suffered a thousand points of critical damage in his heart. He wanted to be quiet.
"Fuck, little boss, are you still human? It's okay that you're good with a knife, but your cooking skills are so amazing now, too. How are we supposed to survive? We're almost the same age!"
Chef Guo was also dumbfounded and muttered to himself in the back.
Soon, their complaints disappeared, because the rich aroma of food emanated from the pot in Yu Wuwei's hand, which aroused their appetite and made them salivate.
Restaurant chefs like them are professional cooks. What delicious food have they not tasted? Their tastes have long been refined, and ordinary dishes simply cannot attract their interest.
However, this dish now makes them hungry just by smelling it. It is hard to imagine how delicious it will be, and even harder to imagine that it was made by the young boss.
The chefs suddenly felt that time was passing so slowly. They couldn't wait to taste this ancestral dish made by the boss himself.
Amid the shock and anticipation of the chefs in the kitchen, Yu Wuwei finally completed the last step, took it out of the pot and put it on a plate, and a fragrant dish of Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea was ready.
When the chefs looked at it, its color was as bright as the sunset glow, golden and shining. The sight of it whetted their appetites, and the smell of it made them even more eager.
Chef Guo had already swallowed several times, and the other chefs were staring at the dish, waiting for the boss to give the order.
Yu Wuwei was very pleased with their expressions. A hint of satisfaction flashed through his smile as he said, "Well, this is the new ancestral dish I've learned—Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea. Chefs, come and try it!"
Several chefs were waiting for him to say this. As soon as Yu Wuwei opened his mouth, they couldn't wait to come over.
The ingredients of Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea are mainly vegetables, supplemented by lean meat and some mushrooms.
Chef Guo was the first to pick up the chopsticks, pick up a piece of the meat and put it in his mouth. He was immediately amazed and his eyes lit up.
"Wow, wow, wow, little boss, this dish of yours is so delicious! I, Guo Dabao, have been learning cooking for five or six years, but I've never eaten such delicious food! Little boss, I love you to death!"
"Get lost, I'm not gay!" Yu Wuwei's face turned black when he heard that.
Chef Guo didn't take it seriously and continued eating with big mouthfuls.
Chef Lao Guo was very particular. He first leaned forward, closed his eyes, and took a deep sniff. With an intoxicated look on his face, he praised, "The color is dazzling and alluring, and the fragrance is lingering. In these two aspects, it is truly top-notch."
Then he slowly picked up his chopsticks, picked up a meatball, put it in his mouth, chewed it for a few times, and then praised loudly: "Good, good, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the taste is excellent, and the flavor is varied. It is sweet at first, with a hint of saltiness, and then a burst of sweetness and refreshing as you chew it. The whole process is full of fragrance, which seems to make you realize the various aspects of life. The best dishes are nothing more than this!"
After tasting the food, he couldn't stop and started to reach for his chopsticks quickly, fearing that Xiao Guo would snatch them away.
"Mmm! This dish is fragrant and delicious. It always leaves a refreshing feeling in my heart. It's simply addictive!"
"It tastes oily but not fishy, fatty but not greasy, and has a refreshing flavor. To be honest, I've had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar recently, so I can't eat anything too spicy. My mouth feels bland. This dish is so fragrant and mainly vegetable-based, it's just my taste!"
"I think this is sour, sweet and refreshing, and it's easier to stomach! I ate a lot before coming here, but after eating this dish, I didn't feel bloated at all!"
…
The other chefs also started to cook. After eating, everyone felt that the taste was different, but no one said that the dish was not delicious.
Yu Wuwei smiled confidently upon hearing this and thought to himself: This is the characteristic of this dish.
The dish is called "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" not because of its shape, like a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix. After it is cooked, it does not look like eight immortals flying over the sea.
The name of Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea actually comes from the taste of this dish. As the saying goes, the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each showing their magical powers, its characteristic is that the taste tasted by each taster is different, but it caters to their current mood and appetite very much, and everyone thinks it is very delicious.
This is the essence of the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea!
