Chapter 1469: The ingredients are average
Just when Zhou Shijie and the others were discussing the ranking of dishes after Yuan Zhou's name, Yuan Zhou was busy with people in the kitchen provided by Huaxia Hotel.
It should be said that Yuan Zhou is not busy now, but is starting to patrol to see where he needs help dispatch.
Because Yuan Zhou's materials and preparations in the early stage were in place, it was time to fulfill his duties as a head chef.
"Chef Yuan, I didn't expect that the ingredients provided by this Huaxia Hotel are quite good. Qiu Ji picked up a piece of potato and weighed it and said.
"The ingredients here are really good. Cui Hang also nodded.
The Sichuan chefs on the side also spoke: "This is also a state banquet, of course the ingredients must be top-notch." ”
"I heard that the ingredients for these state banquets are specially supplied, planted and transported by special personnel, so as to ensure the safety, freshness and perfection of the ingredients in every link. The Sichuan chef said.
However, Yuan Zhou looked at the ingredients they praised, frowned slightly, and then said, "These ingredients are just not bad, not superb." ”
The eight chefs present at the "......" and other assistant chefs were stunned when they looked at Yuan Zhou's serious expressions.
After all, Yuan Zhou is very serious about what he said, and judging from the prestige that Yuan Zhou has established in the past few days, it doesn't look like a joke, or a person who says such big things.
In other words, Yuan Zhou really thinks that these ingredients are not superb.
couldn't help but think of a sentence in the hearts of the eight chefs: "Chef Yuan, this is not the best ingredient, is it possible that the ingredients you usually use are dragon liver and phoenix gall?"
The system ran out without warning: "This system is the kitchen god system, to help you learn Chinese and Western and become a kitchen god!"
"What are you doing out of nowhere? Yuan Zhou said in his heart.
But the system didn't speak anymore, Yuan Zhou cleaned up his mood and put down the pumping system for the time being.
"When you have time to discuss ingredients, you might as well think about how to use them. Yuan Zhou continued.
"Yes. Eight chefs answered one by one.
The assistant chef on the side prepared the ingredients more quietly and seriously.
Because Yuan Zhou looks really very harsh.
After inspecting the circle according to the original plan, Yuan Zhou continued to return to his stove and began to cook.
Time flies by in the midst of busyness, and soon it is time for dinner to begin, and everyone has stopped busy.
"Now go to the banquet hall. After everyone changed their clothes, Yuan Zhou spoke.
"Yes, Chef Yuan. Eight chefs answered one by one.
Yuan Zhou's style has not changed after changing his clothes, he is still wearing clothes, but the color has changed to the opposite style of red and black, and the belt has also become pure black.
It looks a little more relaxed than in the morning.
The other chefs also changed into full suits and prepared for dinner.
A few of them came to cook and communicate, not to be chefs, and now that it was time for dinner, they naturally began to go to the banquet hall.
Even Zhong Lili put down her usual hair and put on a dark blue evening dress and walked beside Yuan Zhou, the distance between the two followed half an arm's length, not far or not close, it was very appropriate.
As for the dishes they had prepared, they had already been delivered to the banquet hall waiting to be tasted.
The banquet started at half past seven on time, and when Yuan Zhou and his party arrived, there were already a lot of people in the hall.
Basically, they gather together in twos and threes to talk.
This time, the dinner was in the form of a buffet, with a circle full of delicately plated dishes, and a large round table placed down from the rostrum in the middle.
The form is also very simple, that is, what everyone likes to eat, they clip it themselves, and return to the position again after clipping.
The dishes made by Yuan Zhou's chefs are different, and they are placed in the middle of a separate countertop.
Naturally, these are for important dignitaries and chefs who exchange cooking skills.
As the person in charge of this hosting, He Zhenghong is accompanying the royal family members of Thailand, a middle-aged man wearing Thai characteristic clothes and diplomatic dignitaries from the Mao Bear Country, as well as representatives of South Korea and Japan.
He Zhenghong is introducing the dishes of today's dinner.
Yuan Zhou stepped in at this time, but he took people into the banquet hall and a young man next to He Zhenghong's assistant walked up to Yuan Zhou.
"Hello Chef Yuan, Mr. He, please come over. The young man approached Yuan Zhou and said softly.
"Okay. Yuan Zhou nodded.
"That's right, now Mr. He is surrounded by the prince of the current King of Thailand of the Thai royal family, and the diplomatic dignitaries of Mao Xiong Country......" The young man walked beside Yuan Zhou, and introduced Yuan Zhou to the people he would meet in a quick and clear manner.
"Hmm. Yuan Zhou nodded.
"That's it, Mr. He will ask you to talk about the main dish you prepared today, and the other chefs who come to the culinary exchange will also explain it one by one. The young man said.
"But don't worry, you can explain in Chinese, everyone brings simultaneous interpretation, is your simultaneous interpretation worn?" the young man said and glanced at Yuan Zhou's ear.
"Hmm. Yuan Zhou continued to nod.
"Okay, then I'll trouble Chef Yuan, it's already here. After the young man finished speaking at Yuan Zhou, he walked quickly to He Zhenghong's side and whispered a few words.
At this time, Yuan Zhou was standing outside the circle, but He Zhenghong, who listened to the whispering, smiled, looked at it with a gentle expression and said, "What I said is all layman's things, and it is up to the chefs who are insiders to talk about it." ”
"This is the youngest head chef in the history of our Asia-Pacific Exchange Conference, Chef Yuan Zhou. He Zhenghong motioned for Yuan Zhou to walk into the circle.
Yuan Zhou nodded slightly, and then walked towards He Zhenghong.
Seeing that Yuan Zhou was neither humble nor arrogant, his pace was steady, and his expression was calm, He Zhenghong was very satisfied.
After all, this external image is also very important in diplomacy.
"What about Mr. Nakaju's Japanese representative?" He Zhenghong asked as he watched Yuan Zhou walk to his side.
"Oishi-san, please step forward. "Mr. Nakaju is a kind-looking old man, and when he heard this, he smiled and called Oishi Xiujie on the side.
"Hi. Dashi Xiujie bowed his head, and then stepped forward quickly.
And He Zhenghong is also an eight-sided figure, and after a while, he will let representatives of the cooking of Mao Xiong country, Thailand, South Korea and India come forward.
Now the circle here is even bigger.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Yuan Zhou wearing Hanfu, the Thai royal family and Japanese representatives all wear their own clothes.
Others are very uniform men's suits, while women's tuxedos are configured.
Even Oishi Xiujie is wearing a suit.
"As the host of this time, we are welcome, I asked Chef Yuan to introduce the dishes he prepared today. He Zhenghong saw that everyone had arrived, and he was not humble, and said directly.
Yes, with the increase of China's national strength, in such international exchanges, China's external official representatives have become tougher and no longer blindly modest.
The rest of the foreign delegates who heard He Zhenghong say this didn't know what they thought in their hearts, but they had a smile on their faces.
