MTL - Food Circle Plug-in Emperor-Chapter 785 reward upgrade

   Zhao Meng was staring at Fu Yu cooking when his cell phone rang suddenly.

  Yao Shi was eating at the same table with his master's old friend Xu Ning's family.

  Xu Ning is also an old chef, but although he is an old friend with Yao Shi's chef, the cuisine he cooks is completely different.

  Xu Ning is a relatively well-known soup cooker in the circle. He once worked in the National Banquet Hall. Later, when he was old, he returned to his hometown after retirement.

  Today is Xu Ning's birthday. Yao Shi used to come to celebrate Xu Ning with his master every day. Since his master passed away, Yao Shi began to visit the door alone.

   This is the case every year.

  Xu Ning's family is in very good condition. They live in a detached villa, but the old man is indifferent by nature, so the location is very remote, just at the foot of Sifeng Mountain.

  The environment is close to mountains and rivers, but far away from the city center.

  If it was normal, Yao Shi would have to rush back to the restaurant and serve him in person in a situation like today.

  But it happened to be today!

   It’s far away, and it’s Xu Ning’s birthday. He came to celebrate his birthday. How could he leave as soon as he was seated?

   There is really no other way but to leave the matter to Zhao Meng.

  But I didn't handle it myself, so I felt a little uneasy in my heart, so I couldn't help calling to ask about the situation.

  "Old Zhao, how is it?"

   Zhao Meng said truthfully: "It happened that Fu Yu came back, so I handed over the order to him. The low-temperature tuna has been processed and served on the table, and there is no feedback from the customer. Now I am instructing Fu Yu to make chrysanthemum fish."

  Yao Shi was surprised when he heard it: "Chrysanthemum Yusheng? Why do you still order this dish?"

  Zhao Meng said quickly: "The customer ordered it himself, and also ordered a few special dishes. I asked Fu Yu to choose the crucian carp for the chrysanthemum fish. Now the blood has been drained."

  Speaking, Zhao Meng did not forget to help Fu Yumei and said: "This kid learned Shunde Yusheng from you before, and now he is very skilled in cooking. I can see that he is no worse than you!"

  Although Fu Yu hadn't cooked raw fish dishes before, Yao Shi personally watched from the side when cooking, and he really did a good job.

  Especially the knife skills of sliced ​​fish, even Yao Shi himself has to agree with Zhao Meng, it is indeed no worse than him.

  So when Zhao Meng said that he taught Fu Yu how to cook, he wasn't too impatient.

Zhao Meng continued: "The fish meat has been processed now. After a while, let him slice the fish meat. I have seen you do the operation of arranging the shape of the plate before. I can guide him. At that time, the diamond shape will be used. The star disk. When he is finished, I will take a picture for you to see!"

  Cooking chrysanthemum sashimi is difficult in slicing and arranging the fish.

  Fu Yu's knife skills must be fine, and Zhao Meng's guidance on the plate arrangement is not too bad.

  However, there are some details, such as the shredded **** of the side dish must be very thin, the direction of the fish must be consistent when arranging the plate, and it must be frozen in the refrigerator for a few minutes at the end, so that the taste can be smoother and sweeter.

  These seemingly simple operations, if any step is wrong, the final effect of the arrangement will definitely be affected.

  Thinking of this, Yao Shi hurriedly told Zhao Meng: "Old Zhao, you must pay attention when you guide Fu Yu."

   Zhao Meng heard that Yao Shi was so solemn, so he had to pull himself together.

  One of them talked, the other listened, and they chatted on the phone for a long time.

  By the time Zhao Meng hung up the phone, Fu Yu had already started packing and preparing dishes.

  His work has always been very precise in terms of time allocation.

  While waiting for the fish to dry, he washed and dried the cutting board.

  The prepared shredded **** did not meet his requirements, so he cut a very thin slice of **** himself, and cut the scallion into fine shreds after flattening it.

Watching Fu Yu cut is a very pleasing thing. Fu Yu's knife is fast and his movements are smooth. When people are watching, they will unconsciously want to hold their breath, and their eyes only follow his movements. And slide up and down.

  Zhao Meng was watching Fu Yu's sallow white with admiration, when Fu Yu's movements suddenly stopped, like a beautiful piece of music, coming to an abrupt end.

  Let the person who is listening suddenly have a feeling of being up and down in his heart.

   Zhao Meng's heart skipped a beat, and just as he was about to ask, Fu Yu started to move again.

  I guess it was a skater just now.

   This is a situation that is often encountered when cutting, Zhao Meng quickly relieved.

  Because he was standing on the side, Zhao Meng's attention was all on Fu Yu's hand, and he didn't notice his surprise expression just now.

   Just two seconds ago, Fu Yu's ear suddenly sounded an electronic prompt without warning:

【Ding! NPC Chef Yao Shi's task is to complete the cooking of chrysanthemum fish and win praise from customers. Task completion reward: one of Yao Shi's personal skills can be obtained (the higher the customer's approval, the higher the personal skill level obtained]

  The mission came too suddenly, Fu Yu raised the corner of his mouth uncontrollably, and quickly suppressed it.

  He tried his best to accept the task calmly, and then continued to cook.

  Fu Yu chopped coriander, perilla leaves, houttuynia cordata, lemongrass, etc. into fine pieces.

   Peanut ordered Zhang Jinyu to fry it in a frying pan.

  He himself mixes rice vinegar and minced garlic to make garlic vinegar. Considering that customers have different tastes for spicy food, he also mixes a plate of raw chili peppers.

   When the customer eats, just serve it according to the taste.

  Fu Yu took care of all the preparations, and the water in the fish was almost dry.

He was preparing to cut the fish with the knife, and Zhao Meng followed Yao Shi's instructions and said, "When cutting the fish, the cutting board must be wiped clean. Put the fish skin down on the cutting board, and use the knife to lower the knife at an angle. Cut the fish into large slices and very thin slices. The meat at the belly of the fish is thin and cannot be sliced, so it is cut into thin strips."

   Chrysanthemum yusheng is not the same as ordinary Shunde yusheng. Shredded fish maw is also a very special and delicious fish lettuce.

   "Pay attention when cutting. When Shunde Yusheng is cut, the fish meat is connected in two pieces, and when it is opened, it looks like an ice butterfly with wings spread. When the chrysanthemum fish is cut, it is a separate thin slice."

   “Every knife for thin slices must be the same size.”

   Fu Yu nodded, and his movements when cutting the knife were very neat.

  The tall fish is on the outside, the thin ones are placed on the inside, and then start cutting.

   The fish fillets cut by the first cut are not needed.

   Zhao Meng reminded at the right time: "Next, start slicing the fish along the cut position. When cutting the knife, lift the blade as high as possible, and use the straight blade to cut each piece of fish neatly."

  Fu Yu followed his advice, and quickly cut the whole fish into four rows of slices as thin as cicada's wings.

  The characteristics of chrysanthemum fish sashimi are not only that the fish fillets are "like ice and snow, and as thin as a cicada's wings", but even the plate on which the chrysanthemum fish is served is also very particular.

  Yao Shi usually uses a round lacquer plate, the pattern is a progressive narrow diamond-shaped starry sky plate, and the plate itself is very characteristic.

  Put ice cubes in the plate and flatten it, then spread a layer of plastic wrap on it, and then put the fish fillets on it evenly to form a chrysanthemum shape.

  So if you want the effect of the plate to be good, in addition to the fact that the fish must be very thin, and the shape must also be very careful.

   Zhao Meng is not good at cutting fish fillets, but he is quite good at shaping them.

He picked up a piece of fish and demonstrated it to Fu Yu: "Look, this way, fold it in half at one-third. Right, then pinch it firmly, push it up, and push up with both hands at the same time, that's it. .”

  Zhao Meng placed the pinched fish on the outside of the plate, and continued: "Look, this is a flower petal, right?"

"The second piece is done in the same way and in the same direction. Fold it in half, push it again, and push out a dimple shape. When it's done, put it on the star disk. Remember, every time you place a piece, the star disk will rotate. Once, it will have a three-dimensional effect and form a circle."

   Zhao Meng made two slices by himself, and taught Fu Yu to operate the rest.

   In just a short while, Zhao Meng has already accumulated several order lists.

   Taking advantage of the time when Zhao Meng left, Fu Yu quickly looked through the mission requirements he had just obtained.

  The task rewards this time are a bit different!

   The higher the customer approval, the higher the personal skill level obtained!

   If you want to obtain Yao Shi's advanced personal skills, you have to make customers praise the chrysanthemum fish that you cook.

  That is Yao Shi's personal skill!

  Any item is extremely precious!

  Fu Yu thought that he usually does tasks, and it is not easy to acquire an advanced skill.

  Now that such a good opportunity has come, I have to seize it no matter what.

  My knife skills are now advanced.

  When he was slicing the fish, he didn't worry at all about his operation.

  It’s just the shape of the plate

   Fu Yu checked his personal attributes:

  【Name: Fu Yu】

  【Occupation: Chef】

  【Level: lv12: 62/1000 (cook in charge)】

  【Dahe: Intermediate: 5/500】

  The lottery game is only at the intermediate level, and the effect of the plate arrangement must be slightly worse.

   If it is upgraded to advanced level, Fu Yu glanced at it, and needs 2 skill points.

   And if you want to increase the level of Dahe, you need to increase your personal level to lv14 first.

  When the previous level was a junior apprentice, only 1 skill point was needed for each level up.

  But now that you have become an intermediate chef, you need 2 skill points if you want to upgrade to a higher level.

   Inside and out, he needs to spend 6 skill points if he wants to upgrade Dahe's personal skills to a high level.

  This is 6 skill points!

   Really hurts thinking about it.

  However, as long as the skill of making lotus is upgraded to a high level, this dish of chrysanthemum and fish will definitely be appreciated by customers.

   After successfully completing the task, you can get Yao Shi's advanced personal skills.

   It is equivalent to taking out 6 skill points in exchange for two advanced personal skills, and an additional two personal levels.

   Looking at it separately, it seems that it is barely acceptable.

   After much deliberation, Fu Yu still gritted his teeth and spent 6 skill points to directly upgrade [Da He] to advanced level.

  No matter what, we still have to try our best to be foolproof!

   Moreover, after the personal level is raised, skill points will be given away. His two consecutive upgrades are equivalent to taking back two skill points.

  Thinking about it this way, I immediately felt more at ease.

   Sure enough, after spending skill points, the next second, an electronic notification sounded in Fu Yu's ears:

【Ding! Four skill points have been used, and your level has been raised to lv14]

  Fu Yu was taken aback! ?

   No, wait a minute!

  How is this different from the upgrade content when the normal task experience is full?

   Not only is the content different, but there are no gift points at all.

  Oh, if you dare to spend skill points to upgrade, there is no other reward.

  Understanding this point, although Fu Yu was a little disappointed, he still had Yao Shi's advanced personal skills as a compensation, so he didn't feel so uncomfortable.

  With the advanced skill of playing lottery by his side, Fu Yu couldn't help but become more and more handy when he operated it again.

  The operation of fish fillet modeling sounds complicated, but in practice, as long as the first piece is figured out, the second piece is easy.

  Fu Yu quickly completed the shape of a circle of petals on the periphery.

   Zhao Meng stretched out his head to take a look, and said with satisfaction: "Okay, yes, the circle inside is still the same."

   "The shape of this plate is wonderful because the two circles of fish slices are placed, which just occupies all the wide lines of the starry sky plate, leaving only the densest starry sky pattern in the middle."

  The effect of this plate arrangement is exactly the result of Yao Shi's countless failures when he was cooking, and a little bit of thinking and improvement.

  From the beginning of slicing the fish to the final shape, every step of the operation is carefully designed to ensure that the expected presentation effect can be achieved in the end.

   "As for the third round, it's still the same method. The last fourth round is the key. When arranging, the fish should be stacked, like this, you see"

   "The stamens are sprinkled with gold leaf, and the grade is instantly upgraded."

  The well-shaped chrysanthemum yusheng, at first glance, each piece of fish fillet is crystal clear, like a blooming white chrysanthemum, which is pleasing to the eye.

   This dish is not common in the back kitchen. Yao Shi is usually served directly by the food passer after finishing it.

There are not many workers who have seen this dish, so when Fu Yu finished the final shape and ordered Zhang Jinyu to send the fish to the freezer, Zhang Jinyu was shocked when he saw this plate of chrysanthemum fish !

   "My God! This dish is too beautiful!"

   Zhang Jinyu shouted out loudly, causing Sun Mingze next to him to turn his head to look.

   "So this is Chrysanthemum Yusheng? It looks like a work of art, how do you use your chopsticks!"

  They were full of praise, and even Sun Qingning heard the movement.

  He had been thinking about seeing Chef Yao's specialty, but now that he heard that Fu Yu had finished cooking, he hurried over to have a glimpse.

   "Hey! This plate arrangement is quite impressive!"

  Sun Qingning took a close look at it, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

   It is said that "if it is thin, the bones of the fish will be hidden, and if it is thick, the bones of the fish will appear".

  A chef can cut fish fillets as thin as cicada's wings, crystal clear, and the effect is extremely beautiful, which shows his excellent knife skills.

   Fu Yu's current knife skills are really superb!

  The entire dish looks like a white chrysanthemum in full bloom when seen from a distance, like a skin that is better than snow when viewed up close, and even more like a nine-day fairy descending to the mortal world.

   This Yusheng is absolutely amazing!

   After a burst of amazement, Sun Qingning gave Fu Yu a thumbs up: "Fu Fu, really, I will obey you in the whole world, and my second child will obey you if I don't support him!"

  Fu Yu: "... You'd better hold on, I don't want a colleague who pees his pants."
