Chapter 189 (1/2)
On the second day of his internship in Yuanyue Hotel, Liu finished his lunch By the end of the day's food tasting, it was already four o'clock.
As a cook, on the contrary, his own meal time is the most irregular. After all, during lunch and dinner, the cook is preparing for the diner
How about being a taster or a gourmet?
And Liu's thought of the Pleiades was just a flash in his mind.
If there was such an opportunity just passing through, Liu would definitely choose this easy road in the short term, but now he does not hesitate to deny this idea in his heart!
Among them, there are many famous ”VIP” chefs in the restaurant.
But Liu has also found that his ”tongue of God” is not omnipotent for the finished recipes!
Only in Yuanyue college, students develop new dishes by themselves, which are usually not finished products. Even the top ten must kill dishes are not always finished products!
For example, in competitions and eating halberds, the new dishes presented by everyone are only preliminary completed, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.
It takes months for a star chef to develop a new super dish. If it's a tiger grade new dish, it's possible to improve it for years or even years
The role of tasters is to shorten this time several times. For those star chefs, how much intangible income will be equivalent to saving several months of R & D cycle? How much faster will you improve your cooking skills?
This is also one of the reasons why the ”God's tongue” pirinais, with a price of one million, is still coveted by countless star chefs.
Another reason, of course, is that she is also a world-famous gourmet. Her comments, even if they are neutral, are enough to bring her extra fame
Usually, many of the tasters are also gourmets, but not many of them are qualified to be tasters. In the cooking industry, the former is much more rare than the latter, because the gourmet can only judge the quality of the taste, but only know ”why it is delicious” but not ”how to taste better”. Famous gourmet is equivalent to a living advertising space.
In every large-scale competition of Yuanyue college, many famous gourmets will be invited as judges. The certifiers of the three major food evaluation institutions are also gourmets.
Besides a keen sense of taste and the ability to appreciate food, a taster needs at least a deep understanding of cooking theory
Usually, tasters and cooks are good at tasting cuisines, such as Liu Pleiades, a whole line of tasters, or very rare!
Gourmets are different. They need to desalinate the taste tendency of their subjective will, treat all departments equally, and be able to taste the delicacy of different cuisines. Otherwise, they can only be food commentators of a certain cuisine at most and dare not call themselves gourmets.
The tasters who specialize in the first department, because they have the advantages of taste discrimination and food appreciation ability, can usually do so even if they don't have a deep research on the cuisine of other departments.
If the cook is a general, then the taster is a counselor, and his advice is first-class, but most of them will be stupid to command a campaign.
Of course, there are also some tasters who can take charge of people part-time, just like Zhuge Liang, marquis Wu, who can not only give advice, but also command the three armies
”However, he should also be a taster of the whole department, but his taste ability is slightly inferior to mine...” Liu Pleiades guessed in his heart.
After all, the ”tongue of God” has a unique advantage in this respect. Without any additional taste enhancement, it is already better than the strongest taster in taste recognition!
At the same time, pirinais does not specialize in any cuisine, so it can be regarded as a ”whole line” taster.
Although the status of tasters in the food industry is also very high, but Liu Pleiades is not planning to be a full-time taster!
Since the existence of ”legendary kitchenware” has been known, Liu Pleiades naturally covets the legendary ability of ”Immortality”. Even though the legendary kitchenware is still unknown and can not be used, there is hope in the end
And surely the higher your cooking skills, the greater the hope!
Although Liu's culinary skills will continue to improve as a taster due to the existence of the system, after the tiger level, ”cooking skills” has already been formed by cooking skills, food sense or metamorphosis, and cooking heart.
Even if the first two reach the peak, they can only reach the level of three-star chefs, just like Sigong Kojiro, that is, they can make tiger grade cuisine.
If you want to go further, ”kitchen heart” is indispensable. For example, several chefs of senior VIP western restaurant have mastered the kitchen heart. Although they are not as obvious as Cheng Yilang's, they can make them cook tiger grade cuisine without much difference between cooking skills, Shiyu and Liu Yuexing!
The ”kitchen heart” can only rely on Liu Pleiades himself, and even Shiyu is not a system that can be strengthened. Liu also has to study it himselfTherefore, Liu did not forget the original intention. He had already informed the senior VIP western restaurant that he would go there for the last time this week.
This surprised and frustrated the caterers of the senior VIP western restaurant. They thought Liu would go there for dinner every week!
