Some people like to turn the spoon over when they cook, is this to make the food more evenly heated or to show off their skills?

I think it's for the sake of even heat, but it's also for the sake of the show, after all, not everyone knows how to turn the spoon.

We all know that many countries in the world have chefs, but only the Chinese chef will be upside down when frying, before the Chinese chef in front of foreign chefs to perform upside down, foreigners are shocked, but also upside down will be called the Chinese stunts. For Chinese chefs, spoon bobbing is one of the basic skills for Chinese chefs to start learning how to stir-fry, and whether or not you can do it can also tell if you are a professional or not. For Chinese chefs, it doesn't matter how heavy the food in the wok is, it has to be able to move it. It can be said that Chinese chef's wrist is really important. But why do Chinese chefs need to turn the spoon upside down? What is the role of the upside down spoon?

The spoon is a means of operation for the cook. As we all know, mastering the heat is very important for a chef, and Chinese food is all about knife work and heat. In addition to the subjective mastery of the fire, but also through another means to control the fire, which is the means of the spoon. For example, the chef in doing stir-fried dishes, the requirements of strong fire quickly into a rapid fire quickly stir-fried, so in the small upside-down spoon on the basis of the conventional format, at the same time increase the left, right side to the continuous small upside-down spoon change skills. This not only enhances the flexibility of the wrist, but also highlights the combination of force and beauty, so that the seemingly simple mechanical action appears to be exceptionally coordinated, dish ingredients in the heating process, in the spoon only before and after the upside down, by the hot spot will often be subjected to certain limitations, but also is not conducive to the main ingredients of the staggered uniformity. And interspersed into the left and right side to the spoon after the heat area significantly expanded for more points, more conducive to the dishes in the spoon evenly heated, juice and gravy package is also more proportional, but also more scientific.

How to operate the spoon? It consists of three main parts: turning the spoon, shaking the spoon, out of the spoon. Turning the spoon is subdivided into a small turn and a big turn. First, the hand should hold the spoon ear or the part of the handle a little lower, so that the raw materials can naturally slide forward. Second, push the spoon forward, and then suddenly pull back, so that the ingredients in the pot due to inertia along the spoon slides backward, naturally turned over. Thirdly, you need your right hand to turn the pot, hold the spoon in your right hand and push the back end of the ingredients forward against the bottom of the spoon, so that the ingredients will be thrown up and fall into the pot again. This set of perfect upside down spoon is completed.
