Chapter 301 Gao Xiaofeng is a good cook
Then, she added a proper amount of oil to the pot, added onions, ginger and garlic to stir-fry, added soy sauce, sugar, cooking wine, broth and other seasonings, brought to a boil, added the fried meatballs, and simmered slowly over low heat to allow the meatballs to fully absorb the flavor of the soup.
In addition to these main dishes, Gao Xiaofeng also made many exquisite side dishes and snacks.
She made "Cold Jellyfish Shreds". She washed the jellyfish shreds, added cucumber shreds, carrot shreds, minced garlic, vinegar, light soy sauce, sesame oil and other seasonings, mixed them evenly, and the taste was refreshing and delicious.
She also made "shrimp steamed dumplings" by mixing shrimp and pork filling together, adding chopped green onion and ginger, salt, cooking wine, light soy sauce, starch and other seasonings, stirring evenly, wrapping them into dumplings, and steaming them in a steamer.
The dumpling skin is thin and the filling is large. The shrimp is tender and juicy, which makes people linger on the taste.
In the process of preparing these dishes, Gao Xiaofeng demonstrated extremely high cooking skills.
Her movements were skillful and precise, and every step was meticulous.
She seemed to be immersed in her own world, carefully preparing this sumptuous meal for Wu Huifen.
Wu Huifen, who was outside the kitchen, heard the aroma coming from the kitchen and was filled with curiosity and anticipation.
She imagined the delicious food Gao Xiaofeng was making and couldn't help swallowing.
She had never imagined that Gao Xiaofeng had such superb cooking skills and could prepare a variety of delicacies from land and sea, as well as a full banquet.
When Gao Xiaofeng brought the dishes to the table, Wu Huifen was shocked by the scene before her.
The table was filled with all kinds of delicious food, which was delicious and tasty.
Wu Huifen looked at the dishes and couldn't believe her eyes.
"Xiaofeng, did you do all this?" Wu Huifen asked in surprise.
Gao Xiaofeng smiled and nodded, saying, "Sister Huifen, try it and see how it tastes."
Wu Huifen picked up the chopsticks and tasted the "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall".
The rich soup and delicious ingredients instantly conquered her taste buds.
She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Xiao Feng, your cooking skills are amazing! This dish is simply delicious."
Gao Xiaofeng was filled with joy after hearing Wu Huifen's praise.
She said, "Sister Huifen, as long as you like it.
Actually, I just like cooking and I just practiced more."
Wu Huifen tried other dishes and praised every one of them.
She said with emotion: “Xiao Feng, I really didn’t expect you to be so amazing.
I usually only cook some home-cooked meals, and I don’t know how to cook these delicacies. You really opened my eyes.”
Gao Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Sister Huifen, you are too kind. In fact, cooking is also a kind of fun. As long as you are willing to try, you can also make delicious dishes."
Gao Xiaofeng's modesty made Wu Huifen like her even better.
The two sat at the dining table and began a conversation, explaining the cooking process.
Wu Huifen said with emotion: "Xiaofeng, I didn't expect you to be such a good cook.
I have always thought that cooking is a difficult thing, and being able to cook so well is even more difficult.”
Gao Xiaofeng responded with a smile: "Sister Huifen, actually I also found cooking difficult at the beginning.
But slowly, I discovered that as long as I put my heart into it, I can make delicious meals.
The process of cooking is also a kind of enjoyment, which can make people relax and forget their worries. "
Wu Huifen nodded and said, "Yes, I always thought cooking was troublesome and I didn't have time to try.
Now that I see all the delicious dishes you make, I realize how much fun I've been missing out on."
Gao Xiaofeng said: "Sister Huifen, cooking doesn't actually take a lot of time.
As long as you manage your time wisely and choose some simple recipes, you can make delicious meals.
Moreover, cooking by yourself can ensure the freshness and hygiene of the ingredients, which is also good for your health.”
After listening to Gao Xiaofeng's words, Wu Huifen seemed to be thinking about something.
She began to reflect on her previous attitude towards cooking and felt that she did have many shortcomings.
She said: "Xiao Feng, you are right. I will try to cook more often in the future and enjoy the process."
Gao Xiaofeng smiled and encouraged: "Sister Huifen, you can do it.
Cooking is actually very simple. As long as you master some basic skills, you can make delicious meals.
For example, you need to control the heat when cooking vegetables, and pay attention to the time and amount of seasoning when making soup. "
Wu Huifen listened to Gao Xiaofeng's explanation carefully, her heart full of admiration.
She felt that Gao Xiaofeng was not only an excellent cook, but also full of passion for life.
She asked, "Xiaofeng, how did you learn to cook?"
Gao Xiaofeng recalled her own growing up experience and said: "My family was poor when I was a child and my parents were often not at home.
In order to take care of myself and my sister, I had to learn how to cook.
At first, the food I cooked was terrible, but I didn’t give up and kept trying and improving.
Slowly, my cooking skills improved.”
After listening to Gao Xiaofeng's story, Wu Huifen was filled with emotion.
She didn't expect that Gao Xiaofeng had such a difficult childhood, but could develop such a strong and optimistic character.
She said: "Xiaofeng, it's really not easy for you.
Your experience has made me understand that no matter how difficult life is, we should never give up the pursuit of a better life. "
Gao Xiaofeng nodded and said, "Sister Huifen, you are right.
There will always be some unsatisfactory things in life, but we cannot give up because of them.
We must learn to find joy in difficulties and face life with a positive attitude."
The two continued to talk about cooking, sharing each other's experiences and insights.
Wu Huifen admired Gao Xiaofeng more and more and felt that she was inferior to her in many aspects.
She realized that she had always been too focused on career and family responsibilities and neglected the little pleasures in life.
Gao Xiaofeng can find her own fun in her busy life, which makes her feel very ashamed.
However, Wu Huifen also understands that everyone's lifestyle is different and cannot be simply compared.
She decided to change her attitude towards life from now on, try more new things, and make her life more colorful.
During the conversation, Wu Huifen also began to think about the meaning of life.
She feels that cooking is not only a life skill, but also a way to express love.
By cooking, we can bring warmth and happiness to our family and friends.
This kind of warmth and happiness cannot be replaced by money or material things.
Wu Huifen said: "Xiaofeng, your cooking skills make me feel the beauty of life.
I will also use food to convey love and warmth like you in the future."
Gao Xiaofeng was deeply moved after hearing what Wu Huifen said.
