Little Life on An American Ranch - Chapter 682
Chapter 682 Vegetarian Meat Cooking
At noon, everyone went to the restaurant exhausted after class, planning to repay their hard work this morning with a gluttonous lunch.
The class in the morning was taught by Jian Heng. It was a simple and rough one, almost a full marathon, a 40-kilometer long-distance run. It was not in a warm room but in a cold outdoor. Of course, not all students I went out for a run, but stayed at the ranch for more than three months. All students must participate as long as they are not sick.
Many students may have never run a marathon in their life. Before running, they never thought that they could run almost a full marathon, but after running, many people have the same feeling: it turns out that the marathon conquering the marathon is not such a terrible thing !
tired! Very tired, almost everyone who ran down felt tired, but many people were tired but excited, even when they were queuing up in the restaurant, they couldn’t stop talking to their acquaintances and running down by themselves How you feel, or express your disbelief about the matter.
“How about today’s vegetarian dishes?”
Suddenly an angry female voice broke the silence of the restaurant, saying that the silence is a bit inappropriate, and that it is a bit too much for the vegetable market. At this time, there are countless kinds of buzzing noises in the restaurant, just like countless small mosquitoes. It’s like flying past my ears. Because of this female voice, all the buzzing in the restaurant stopped immediately, and everyone turned their eyes to the window.
The one who expressed his anger was a female actress, in her thirties, she had won many awards, and privately recognized in the circle as having a bad temper. Now this situation is already restrained. The tray in his hand hit the vegetable chef’s face in the window.
The young master was obviously intimidated by the actress’ aura, and he was a bit obsequious. He opened his mouth several times but didn’t make a sound. He knew the actress but had never seen her get angry.
Zhao Wei pushed the little master away at this time, and greeted the actress with a smile: “Hey, Kelly! What are you so dissatisfied with?”
“What’s dissatisfied? You don’t know how to watch it yourself.” The female actress is also very popular here. After running a marathon all morning, she was so tired that she didn’t know her last name, so she was counting on this lunch today to find comfort. , Suddenly came to the restaurant and found that the things I used to eat were gone, who would not be popular?
“Are these all vegetarian dishes?”
Zhao Wei was not annoyed at all, he smiled and waved gracefully at the dishes in front of him.
“You want to lie to me? Usually this dish is homemade tofu and so on. Why are they all in this color today, and I picked three dishes just now, and all of them smelled like meat. You are insulting us vegetarians Is it anist?”
Kelly’s words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of many people behind. To them, being a vegetarian is their own choice. They hope that others will respect their choice. If the restaurant serves them meat as a vegetarian, it is not just a matter of respect or disrespect. It’s a problem, but to humiliate them vegetarians.
Zhao Wei explained with a smile: “We have hired a new chef, and today’s dishes are the chef’s masterpiece. I assure you with my personality that these dishes are all produced from plants, from the oil to the ingredients. If you still don’t believe If so, the restaurant’s screen will play the entire process of the new vegetarian chef’s production!”
Kelly immediately replied: “The screen is black!”
Zhao Wei frowned when he heard that, then turned to the little master and asked, “Why didn’t you start the video?”
“I forgot!”
Zhao Wei glared at him, saw that he was standing motionless in front of him, and then said in Chinese: “What? Are you still waiting for me to open it? You are really a grandpa!”
The little master immediately started to move when he heard it, and went to the control room to project the monitoring playback that was going to be played on the big screen in the dining area.
Seeing that the person had gone out to work, Zhao Wei stretched out his hand to signal the food in front of him again: “You can choose three things you want to try, don’t worry about it, eat after watching the video, if you are not satisfied, you Come back to me.”
At this time, Kelly calmed down, and she also felt that the ranch would not suddenly humiliate herself, because I am not a vegetarian for her.
“Help me choose! I don’t know how to choose” Kelly’s attitude softened.
Zhao Wei took a look, glanced at the small plate, and said while looking at it: “Usually you have a stronger taste and like to eat… Okay, these are imitation sausages made of vegetarian chicken, which are a bit like The taste of bratwurst…”.
As he spoke, he quickly picked out three dishes for Kelly and placed them in Kelly’s bowl.
“Let’s eat first. If it doesn’t suit your taste, you can come and change it later. Today, because it’s the first day of the chef, I made more than a dozen dishes for you to choose from. There are imitation beef flavors and imitation chicken flavors. It’s 100% that. It is impossible, but apart from the similarities, the taste can also be seven or eight.”
Kelly picked up the tray, took the rice and the only safe soup she was familiar with, that is, green vegetable tofu soup, and sat down where she usually sat.
After sitting down, Kelly smelled the smell of the three dishes on her tray again, and still frowned. She was really familiar with the smell of beef, and in her sense of taste, the taste was not seven or eight at all. , but a solid beef flavor.
Unable to move her chopsticks, Kaili could only look up at the TV screens on the four sides of the restaurant. Surveillance videos were displayed on the two sides and four sides, while the close-up video was displayed on the big screen in the middle. , as soon as he heard it, he knew that this person was Zhao Changshan, whom everyone was familiar with.
What a coincidence, the first dish is the vegetarian beef goulash in Kaili’s bowl. All the ingredients are vegetarian, and Kaili has eaten every kind, but every time it is fumigated, steamed and fried by the master chef. After going through a process, it gets closer and closer to what’s in Kelly’s bowl.
Kaili is an actor, and she has a very keen intuition for the camera position and the picture. Looking at the close-up shots and watching the simultaneous monitoring on both sides, it took a full ten minutes for Kaili to believe in the bowl of vegetarian potato stew in front of her. Beef is a solid vegetarian dish.
Relieved a bit, Kaili picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of so-called ‘beef’, put it in her mouth, and chewed carefully.
After chewing and tasting, Kelly soon tasted something different, it was soy products! Finally, Kelly was sure that what she ate was soy products with a beef flavor!
After tasting the first dish, there will be no psychological barriers for the remaining two dishes. Kelly tried them one by one. First, she tasted different meats, and finally tasted different flavors. The three plates served as a side dish Two kinds of meat are replaced by soy products, and the other is bamboo shoots.
After figuring it out, Kaili forgot to eat, but raised her head and continued to stare at the screen. For her, it can be said to be a magic trick on the taste buds. Making one dish taste like another dish is not only delicious. The taste, as well as the appearance, such cooking skills were unheard of for her.
She is not the only vegetarian in the restaurant, there are eight or seven of them with a full budget, and now all of them are looking up at the screen with incredible eyes.
Not only vegetarians, but also many meat eaters were amazed by the chef’s skills on the screen, causing people in the restaurant to forget to eat and staring at the screen.
Zhao Wei looked at the group of students through the window, and couldn’t help cursing in his heart: These stupid foreigners have never seen meat and vegetables cooked!
Zhao Wei said that people are quite easy, and he completely forgot that when he first saw the chef showing off his skills, even these people hadn’t shown their performance yet.
At this time, Zhao Wei remembered something, walked out of the cooking area, and said to everyone: “If you have any doubts, starting at two o’clock in the afternoon, the new vegetarian chef will show you how many dishes you ate today. When the time comes, everyone who is interested can come and have a look at the cooking method of the dish. Let me tell you first, the master chef will only demonstrate if there are more than five people, and he will not demonstrate if there are less than five people.”
As soon as everyone heard this, and this, they immediately said that they would definitely come and see it at that time.
Being teased by Zhao Wei, the people watching TV came back to their senses one after another. Everyone devoured their food, and quickly took the bowl to the window to ask the little master to add some new dishes.
After taking it back to eat, they all nodded. In this way, the meat-like vegetarian dishes were quickly eaten up. All those who have eaten these vegetarian dishes, thinking that they are all made of vegetarian materials, suddenly have Kaili. Feel, think this chef will be magic.
