Chapter 838 - The Second Mission Of The Stars (1/2)

With the understanding about the meatballs, Dean turned around and went out of the door to look for the director earnestly.

Dean straightforwardly asked the director for the video of Yuan Zhou cooking the Swedish Meatballs. Though he still didn’t see clearly how the special cranberry jam was processed, he was quite impressed with the way Yuan Zhou processed the pork and beef.

Judging from how Dean addressed Yuan Zhou just now, Dean was truly convinced by him. He even felt Yuan Zhou deserved to be Chu Xiao’s lifelong rival, as his culinary skills were too brilliant.

The stars completed the first mission while the business time of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant also came to an end. Apart from the Swedish Meatballs, Mouse who also decided to spend more also ordered some other dishes and thus stuffed himself. Luckily, his colleague supported him up and they left slowly.

The crowd waiting in line was also gone. Taoxi Road was still boisterous, but there were much fewer people.

The directing team began to release the second mission. Meanwhile, Dean went up to Yuan Zhou for the first time.

“Chef Yuan, I hereby apologize solemnly to you for my contempt at you.” Dean apologized first.

Yuan Zhou, “???”

Regardless of whether or not Yuan Zhou understood, Dean first sought to prove his conjecture. He straightforwardly brought out how exactly the mechanism of the Swedish Meatballs being wrapped in the cranberry jam worked.

On hearing that, Yuan Zhou was also very surprised. Dean was the second person who could make out the principle behind the Swedish Meatballs.

After his conjecture was confirmed by Yuan Zhou, Dean excitedly clenched his fist tight and said, “Chef Yuan, could you tell me what inspired you to improve the Swedish Meatball like that?”

“Bingtanghulu 1 ,” Yuan Zhou had never thought of keeping it as a secret. He told Dean without any hesitation.

“Bingtanghulu? What’s that? A kind of Chinese food?” Dean thought for a while carefully and then asked.

“It’s quite normal that you foreigners don’t know about the starch film since you haven’t eaten Bingtanghulu before.” Yuan Zhou answered and then continued practicing his sculpting skills.

Dean nevertheless bore Yuan Zhou’s words in mind and then asked his assistant to look up the information about the starch film. The starch film, which was made of starch and gelatin by squeezing in high temperature and drying, existed as early as the Song Dynasty.

Thinking of the starch film and the cranberry jam that wrapped the meatballs, Dean finally understood. It was absolutely a grand master’s level to improve something that could be found everywhere in daily life and make it into something that helped solve most chefs’ problems.

“The cultural deposits of Chinese food are so profound that a simple starch film can indicate the wisdom of making delicacies.” Dean couldn’t help sighing with emotion.

On the other side, the second mission released by the directing team was to let the stars learn a skill from Yuan Zhou with the help of the special guest.

“Did the directing team negotiate with Chef Yuan ahead of time?” On receiving the mission, Li He asked immediately.

The director shook his head naturally, “Of course not.”

On hearing that, Li He blurted out, “Do you think Chef Yuan will teach us?”

The director shrugged and revealed a manner of “I have no idea.”, which infuriated Li He a lot.

The program division had originally wished these stars would complete this mission with the help of the special guest, Dean. After all, the program division wasn’t stupid. If Dean wasn’t here, they would never expect these three stars to really learn something from Yuan Zhou in the program.

After Li He, Bai Guo, and Jiang Meisi discussed for a while, however, they figured out another method to complete the mission.

First of all, a skill didn’t necessarily mean a dish. So, it was also acceptable for them to learn something simple.

What was the simplest skill? The three stars all thought of cooking plain white rice. Nothing could be simpler than it. They needed to do nothing but open the electric cooker and pour the rice and water inside with the correct ratios.

There was still a little time left before the dinnertime of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant commenced. Naturally, the three people were unlikely to stay and wait there all along, but they also feared there would be too many people because of the 10% discount and thus wouldn’t be able to see Yuan Zhou cook.
