Chapter 18 (2/2)
This second-cla.s.s sesame oil was a lot more fragrant than ordinary vegetable oil. Even Shu Yu turned around and was surprised to see Gu Zheng there.
He sprinkled a bit of salt into the oil, then picked up a jade white egg. The two chefs were unable to clearly see Gu Zheng's actions. They saw his hand flick, then the egg broke out of the sh.e.l.l and fell into the pan.
There was no unpleasant sound, and not a single drop of sesame jumped from the pot. Instead, the aroma became even more concentrated.
The pure white egg white and agate-like egg yolk gradually formed in the pan. Gu Zheng's hand moved slightly, and the fried egg flew from the pan, flipping a perfect circle, before landing back in the pan.
The egg that flew out was lightly coated in oil, and the oil then completely enveloped the egg. It seemed as if this wasn't the case, it only looked like it had a yellowish translucent covering. This scene stunned Shu Yu.
The fragrance continued to spread out. After more than a minute, Gu Zheng poured the pan of fried eggs onto the delicate plate, and the fried egg was complete.
REmembering the fried egg he ate in the morning, Gu Zheng swallowed his own saliva. However, that spirit device only allowed him to eat one a day, otherwise he would eat ten straight without wasting any.
”Gu Zheng, this is your fried egg?”
Shu Yu walked over, and looked at the perfect circle upon the plate. White was white, Yellow was yellow. The clear separation made the fried egg seem like art. It didn't have a single drop of excess oil and it had a few tiny holes. It was clear like a picture taken by a high-definition camera, it made people enjoy looking at it.
”Correct, this is the fried egg I spoke of!”
GU Zheng slightly smiled. Shu Yu reached over, and picked up the plate. GU Zheng's face changed slightly, and cursed internally. He whispered: ”Shu Yu, It's not me who wants this, after this I will definitely invite you out to eat something, however, if you want to eat the fried egg, you have to buy it according to the market price!”
Gu Zheng didn't know how to say these words properly. After he finished he lowered his head.
”What?”
The two cooks to the side were shocked and stared at Gu Zheng in confusion. He was selling fried eggs in boss's shop, yet when the boss wanted to try one, she actually had to pay?”
”No problem, I'll be your first customer!”
Shu Yu glanced at Gu Zheng, then laughed. She generously handed over a 100 RMB. Gu Zheng had no change, so she specifically asked to cas.h.i.+er for change, and placed 88 RMB in front of Gu Zheng.
”Can I try it now?”
After paying, Shu Yu asked. Gu Zheng quickly nodded, while his face was still somewhat red. Internally, he cursed the ruthless spirit device. Any curse word he could think of, he sent to the spirit.
”Excellent fragrance!”
She bit a small mouthful. Shu Yu's eyes changed, and the color of her face was completely different. She couldn't help but be filled with wonder. Her current reaction, and Gu Zheng's in the morning was almost completely the same.
Shu Yu's household was somewhat wealthy. Her wealthy parents always somewhat spoiled her. It could be said that Shu Yu had eaten many delicious things before. While she didn't have the same palate as Gu Zheng, that was because he was a food critic. He couldn't not travel the world. However, Shu Yu still traveled abroad every holiday.
She had tried food made by some of the world's top chefs, such as the Royal Chef. She ate out quite a bit and had been to many 3 star Michelin restaurants. She had also tasted dishes from chefs that were hard to come by. However, none of them were like Gu Zheng's fried egg, which gave her a strong feeling of shock.
Correct, it would be 'shock'. At this moment, she could only use the word 'shock' to describe what she was feeling.
