Chapter 201 Beef

Peng Bai and Zhu Wanqing followed Zhu Minghe to the kitchen of Kamais Western Restaurant. All the staff in the kitchen greeted Zhu Minghe respectfully, and the manager of the back hall immediately accompanied him.

There are many intersections of cooking skills learned by Western food and Peng Bai, which is nothing more than cooking delicious food, but the difference between this pot is too big. Western food uses the pan used to fry eggs when Peng Bai was in Manhanlou. Moreover, Western food focuses on the delicious taste and the nutrients that the human body can intake, so it is the most normal. To a large extent, the food cooked in Western food is not fully cooked, or even whole raw, because this can better ensure nutrition.

"Xiaobai, just raise any opinions." Zhu Minghe said to Peng Bai with a smile.

Peng Bai can be said to have no idea about Western food, and it is absolutely no problem to let him make it, but it is definitely not as delicious as those who are professionally learning Western food making. Because of this, Peng Bai is even more unlikely to show off his skills, so he just agreed casually.

Peng Bai's eyes were circling around and he could not recognize many things in the kitchen. For example, Peng Bai's habitual kitchen knife is simply not visible here. The vegetable cutters in the kitchen use knives that are several sizes smaller than the kitchen knife. Each vegetable cutter is very small when cutting vegetables, just as if they are not cutting vegetables with knives, but using iron slices to cut vegetables, and the thickness of the cut vegetables is the same.

What Peng Bai couldn't believe the most was that a kitchen staff member who was responsible for cutting beef on the other side actually used such a knife to cut and knead. If Peng Bai had probably changed it to a machete, one piece at a time, and it was easy and comfortable. But that's the case, the other party's speed was actually very fast, definitely no more than Peng Bai's speed of cutting meat.

Peng Bai immediately became interested in this person.

"This is Nicole Lanabel, the first chef in our kitchen." Peng Bai's attention-oriented eyes made Zhu Minghe immediately introduce to Peng Bai.

Only then did Peng Bai notice that the chef in the back kitchen turned out to be a woman.

It seemed that someone was talking about her. Nicole Lanabel turned around and looked at Zhu Minghe after cutting the steak.

"Hello boss." Nicola Lanabel said to Zhu Minghe with a smile.

Only then did Peng Bai see the appearance of this young Western restaurant kitchen. Nicole Lanabel had golden hair, but was wrapped in a tall chef's hat. Only the Liuhai, which was exposed on his forehead, could recognize the color of her hair. Her eyes with small, single eyelids looked like a weird feeling. Her deep eye sockets and towering nose told everyone that she was not from the eastern region, and her thin lips were indescribable. Although she did not feel moved by Peng Bai compared to Zhu Wanqing, Peng Bai had to say that this was indeed an exotic beauty.

"Yeah!" Peng Bai groaned, no need to ask, it must be Zhu Wanqing who was jealous because Peng Bai was so focused on the beauty.

"Nicole, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Peng Bai Peng, who just won the championship for Tianyuan Temple in the Buddhist Chef Competition, and is also Wanqing's high school and college classmate." Zhu Minghe obviously valued the exotic beauty very much, and introduced Peng Bai with a smile.

"Hello." Nicole walked over and stretched out her right hand.

"Hello." Peng Bai stretched out his right hand and held it with Nicole's right hand. There was a smooth and moist feeling at the tentacles. Nicole actually had a pair of soft and slender hands. People with such hands should be learning to play the piano. Peng Bai couldn't help but think in his heart.

"Cough!" Zhu Wanqing coughed softly as if he was not concerned.

Peng Bai immediately let go of Nicole's right hand. It seemed that this grip just now had been a bit long.

"May I ask, did you cook the steak we ate just now?" Peng Bai asked in order to avoid this slightly awkward atmosphere.

"Haha! This is natural. In our Camais Western Restaurant, only VIPs can taste Nicole's craftsmanship." Zhu Minghe answered first.

"Disciple?" Peng Bai said to himself. When he saw Nicole just now, Nicole was cutting beef tenderloin! I'm afraid this VIP was just giving special guidance to the people who were given high-priced steaks!

"Mr. Peng participated in the Buddhist chef competition? Isn't it possible for monks who study Buddhism to participate in that competition?" Nicole asked back.

"I was just an opportunity. I just studied cooking skills in Tianyuan Temple for a while. I used to be a chef, but I found that I am interested in Western food now." Peng Bai replied with a smile.

What Peng Bai said really means that different people who hear it will have different understandings.

Zhu Minghe understood that Peng Bai intended to help him, which is of course the best thing; Nicole believed that Peng Bai was a very good chef because ordinary chefs were very good at single items. For example, people who made Chinese food were very good at Chinese food, and people who made pastries were very good at pastries. If a chef could learn Chinese food and also learn Western food, then it was either too much time and had no place to use it, or he was not good at doing anything. The last possibility was that this person was really a genius, and he could learn whatever he could. In addition, Zhu Minghe introduced that Peng Bai was the champion of the Buddhist chef competition just now, so the answer became that Peng Bai was a genius in cooking. Zhu Wanqing, who stood beside Peng Bai, didn't think so after hearing Peng Bai's words. Peng Bai's actions just now made Zhu Wanqing think that this was because Peng Bai became interested in this Nicole.

Peng Bai's ostentatious eyes saw Zhu Wanqing's slightly angry expression and knew that Zhu Wanqing had misunderstood him again, but Peng Bai did not explain anything. Some things did not need to be explained at all, while others were the more troublesome the more they explained it. Now this matter obviously belongs to the latter.

"I want to know the steak making process. Can Master Nicole explain it to me?" Peng Bai asked with a smile.

"Of course, please, please." This was obviously the first time Nicole was called a master and agreed happily.

"Don't worry, I only like you." Peng Bai took advantage of Nicole's approach to the freshly chopped steak, and Zhu Minghe followed, turned his head and said to Zhu Wanqing in a low voice.

This is more useful than any explanation. After hearing Peng Bai's sincere confession, Zhu Wanqing turned angry and smiled, and gave Peng Bai a strong look.

Peng Bai walked to Nicole and began to listen to Nicole's explanation of Western food.

"A steak needs to go through many steps from the ingredients to the cooking. The first is to select ingredients. The difference in ingredients directly depends on the taste of the steak that was cooked. For example, the steak made from ordinary beef will feel slightly hard and not easy to chew. The beef we chose is transported from the grassland. There are four major prairies in the world. Among them, the Dallas prairie is a prairie that can provide the best beef. Where can the best pastures have the best beef, so where the beef produced is tender and the most suitable for cooking steak." Nicole began to tell Peng Bai about the steak.

"The beef we chose is a five-month-old bull, weighing between 250 and 300 kilograms. This kind of beef is the tenderest meat. The beef used to make steak is the tenderloin of this little bull, that is, the big steak meat. The middle part of the beef tenderloin is selected. Generally speaking, like the beef that you and the lady eat today, the beef tenderloin on a Dallas calf can only make fifteen steaks."

Peng Bai took a breath after hearing this. No wonder the price he saw was so high when he looked at the menu just now! After working on it for a long time, it was the best among the best! But then again, even if it was the best among the best, the price was too expensive! Because on the market, even if you buy a little bull, it would only cost 800 to 1,000 yuan. The relationship is to eat a piece of meat and spend two cows!

"After the beef tenderloin is cut, the next thing to do is to taste the steak, using pepper and other ingredients. Because this is an industry secret, it is not convenient for me to reveal it. Before savoring, gently tap the beef slices with a meat hammer to break the beef tendon inside. This will not only make it taste very easy, but it tastes better and is more tender." Nicole smiled embarrassedly.

"Damn, you're not wrong! I just said it, and now I'm talking about what industry secrets it is. Why don't I know what industry secrets I have?" Peng Bai cursed in his heart. What Peng Bai hates the most is the so-called industry secrets. Secrets represent monopoly, inability to circulation, and dominant position in a certain field. It is precisely because there are too many industry secrets that the chef's sect can kill people above the law. Perhaps, it is because of the fear that Peng Bai's father will leak some so-called industry secrets that he has been chasing Peng Bai's father for many years.

"Okay, since it's an industry secret, there's no need to say anything more. I see that the steak making is compared with the cooking skills I've learned, and there is nothing unique about it." Peng Bai began to feel a little disgusted with Nicole, interrupted Nicole and said to Nicole impolitely.

"What? You actually said the cooking steps of steak so badly? Do you know what Western food is? Do you know what steak is?" Nicole was obviously a Western foodist. After hearing Peng Bai's words, she tried hard to widen her eyes and asked Peng Bai angrily.

"Western food? Some raw vegetables and fruits with salad sauce, or half-cooked things, I began to feel that I lost interest in Western food." Peng Bai is not the kind of chicky person, but Peng Bai hates the "industry secret" mentioned just now. If Nicole did not add the so-called industry secrets, but instead went by ambiguously, Peng Bai would not only not feel disgusted, but also become a strong interest in Western food. However, the simple four words "industry secrets" made Peng Bai completely give up his plan to learn Western food.

"You..." Nicole went from a slight anger to very angry after hearing Peng Bai's words. Nicole, a weak girl who looks gentle and polite, gets angry, just like a Tyrannosaurus Rex is very likely to kill.

Zhu Minghe immediately retreated three meters away when he saw Nicole's face. As the boss, he knew Nicole's temper very well. Last time, a chef with the same status as Nicole said that Nicole's Western food was just a trick of a child. After taking it, Nicole was sent to the hospital with a knife. In the end, Zhu Minghe cherished talents and spent a lot of money to change the confession of the unlucky chef, avoiding a genius chef in the Western food field falling into prison for his whole life. Now Zhu Minghe has prayed countless times in his heart, but he begged that Nicole must not hurt his precious daughter Zhu Wanqing. As for Peng Bai, compared with the two, Nicole seems to be more important.

"You can insult me, but you must not insult Western food." Nicole's overreaction made Peng Bai stunned for a moment.

Nicole grabbed the "meat-clip knife" that he had just cut the steak and rushed directly towards Peng Bai.

Looking at Nicole who was rushing towards him, Zhu Wanqing grabbed Peng Bai with a gloomy look and wanted to pull Peng Bai away from Nicole's attack range. However, how could Peng Bai's strong body be able to be pulled by the delicate Zhu Wanqing?

Just when Zhu Wanqing thought that at Peng Bai's reaction speed, Nicole would definitely be pierced through the chest with this knife, Peng Bai poked out his left hand that was not pulled by Zhu Wanqing, gently lifted it up, and then easily grabbed Nicole's meat-cutting knife with her thumb and index finger.

Nicole didn't expect that Peng Bai would use this method to resist his attack. What he didn't expect was that Peng Bai's chubby big hand seemed to be pliers on the machine, tightly clamping the meat-cutting knife in his hand. Whether he stabbed forward or backward, the meat-cutting knife seemed to be born on Peng Bai's hand, and it didn't move at all.

"Don't work so hard, I'll give it to you." Peng Bai smiled and saw the opportunity and let go of his fingers.

Seeing that his attack was ineffective, Nicole was about to use all her strength to pull back the meat-cutting knife that he had stabbed. At this moment, Peng Bai's fingers, which seemed to be like iron pliers, actually released. All the pulling force was sustained by Nicole himself. She staggered back five or six steps, and then sat on the ground.

"You... you bully people..." Nicole stared at Peng Bai with anger, and her pretty face looked very cute when she was angry with Peng Bai.

"It seems that I didn't do it first!" Peng Bai smiled, walked over, stood in front of Nicole sitting on the ground, and stretched out his right hand.

"I don't need you to pull it!" Nicole shouted angrily.

Peng Bai raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "I asked you to hand over the tools you committed the crime. Who said I want to pull you?"

After hearing Peng Bai's words, Nicole became even more angry. She originally thought that Peng Bai's actions were taking the initiative to show goodwill, but she didn't expect that this fat man was so unreasonable. No matter what the girl's face was, she said these words, so how could a girl stay in the kitchen of the Western Restaurant in Kamais in the future!

"Boss, who? Mr. Xuanyuan Cangjian's steak hasn't been on yet, so he got a little angry." The front hall manager hurried into the back hall and immediately said to Zhu Minghe after seeing Zhu Minghe.

"Well! I understand, let him wait a moment." Zhu Minghe replied with a little head-on.

After the manager of the front hall left, Zhu Minghe smiled and walked carefully to Nicole who was still sitting on the ground staring at Peng Bai, then stretched out his hand and said, "Nicole, don't be angry, Peng Bai is joking with you! Come on, I'll pull you up, you always have to give me this face, right?"

After all, Zhu Minghe is the boss, and the last time Nicole went crazy was Zhu Minghe who came forward to solve the problem for Nicole. So Nicole was still angry after hearing Zhu Minghe's words, but after all, she could not point the gun at others, so she reached out and asked Zhu Minghe to pull it up.

"Nicole, hurry up and get Xuanyuan Cangjian's steak ready! He may be your future boss and husband!" Zhu Minghe said with a smile.

Zhu Wanqing stopped following her father's words.

"Dad! What are you talking about? Only any playboy? I won't marry you if I beat you to death." Zhu Wanqing shouted angrily.

Zhu Minghe did not care about his angry daughter, but looked at Nicole with hope, hoping that Nicole would not go on strike because of Peng Bai's few words just now.

"Isn't he the first place to get the first place? OK! Let him make steak. Boss, it seems that I haven't had a holiday for three months and seven days! I remember you said that as long as I want to have a holiday, I can rest at any time. Okay, I'll have a holiday now. I want to see what kind of ability this fat man has, and he dares to underestimate the cooking skills of Western food." Nicole's eyes turned, directly changed the topic, and put the responsibility on Peng Bai.

"I'll just come here. What's the matter? Isn't it just roast beef? Can't I compare to you?" Before Zhu Minghe could say a few nice words to comfort Nicole, Peng Bai interrupted and rushed over.

Speaking of barbecue, Peng Bai really doesn't accept anyone, but Peng Bai does have reasons for not accepting it. In the primeval forest, barbecue is Peng Bai's main food. Without barbecue, I'm afraid Peng Bai will have become a mummy long ago. At the Xue family, barbecue is Peng Bai's midnight snack. If there is no barbecue, Peng Bai might have become a handsome and handsome guy now!

"Xiaobai, how can you make steak?" Zhu Minghe looked at Peng Bai in surprise, as if he had seen an alien creature.
