Chen Ming looked at the score, the table (qíng) on his face was relatively flat, and he didn't seem to be satisfied or disappointed.

He also understands that the hot pot can get such a score or the form that satisfies most of the judges, and the taste happens to satisfy the judges' discerning appetite.

However, if you want to develop in hot pot, the Supreme Hot Pot Banquet is a good start.

The Hanfu Restaurant soon served its own dishes.

Su Zifang had already learned about the dishes of the Hanfu Restaurant from Qiao Xin, which was the earliest palace banquet so far, Zhou Bazhen.

In order to ensure that the number of dishes is up to standard, the big eight treasures and the small eight treasures are specially made up of 16 dishes.

The most shocking thing is the cannon dolphin in the big eight treasures, not to mention the complex production process, it is still the embodiment of the peak of cooking skills at that time, even now, it is a rare top dish.

The original method required the selection of (rǔ) pigs, the internal organs were removed, the abdominal cavity of the pig was filled with pitted dates, and then the piglets were wrapped with reeds, coated with grass mud, and the mud was peeled off after being dried and cast over a fierce fire, and the wrinkled skin formed on the surface of the pig skin was rubbed off. Next, rice flour is used to make rice cereal, smeared all over the pig (shēn), and then put in the fat that can be submerged (rǔ) the pig, and the pot filled with grease is added to the water bath (rè), and the dish can be tasted after three days.

Because of the time relationship, the processing method of Hanfu Restaurant is to fry the whole pig in the pot, then fill it with red dates, spices, brush with honey and bake it at high temperature, during which it is taken out several times to use a fork to jack the pigskin and brush it with new honey.

The finished product is ruddy and crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, with both jujube and honey aromas, and the aroma of lard after baking fills the entire kitchen.

When serving, let Suzi let his saliva flow.

He was still more than ten meters away, and you can imagine the shock of the judges' seat when they saw this dish.

Xiao Ba Zhen is a dish used by Hanfu Restaurant to add flavor and shape according to the condition of Da Ba Zhen (qíng), which are some new Huaiyang dishes that focus on plating and enhancing taste, but they are somewhat similar to several dishes of Zhiweiguan.

The healthiest buffalo (ròu) is sliced and served with two sauces, one is the traditional vinegar and plum milk, some red onions, and the other is made with soy sauce and mustard.

The porridge did not follow Zhou Bazhen's practice, but chose red bean and plum soup, a dish that Su Zifang has in his memory but has not had time to open it yet.

The small crimson bowl is filled with an amber broth, and the red beans have been boiled until the sand and white rice cakes and plum blossoms are mixed together, giving it a sweet appearance.

On the judges' bench, several female judges ate very happily.

"It seems to be honey?" Cao Yangping took a bite and looked at Ke Pengyi.

"Osmanthus nectar? Acacia nectar?...... It doesn't seem to be. Ke Pengyi carefully tasted the red bean and plum blossom soup in his mouth, and was a little puzzled.

"It's not the first time I've tasted this honey, but I can't remember it. ”

"Rock honey. Cao Yangping thought carefully and said.

"I once had the pleasure of tasting it once when I was in the fishing hotel, and the embassy especially wanted to eat a dish of rock honey dipped in Gurung bread, so I sent rock honey and bread recipes. ”

"There was still a little left after the pastry department was done, so the ambassador didn't take it away and gave it directly to the chef in the pastry department. ”

"Yan Mi, I see!" Cao Yangping suddenly realized, and the memory of this ingredient also came to his heart.

Honey from Himalayan giant bees, the hives will only set on cliffs 100 meters high.

Due to the weather, it is only available for a few months each year, and each time it is necessary to climb hundreds of meters high cliffs by means of rattan ladders, pull the honey pickers to the hive with bamboo poles nailed into the rock wall, hook one foot to the ladder, one foot hook to a long bamboo pole with a knife tied to it, and catch the honey with a net.

It is extremely difficult to obtain only the honey hunters of the Chantere tribe in the world, and it is known as Imperial Honey.

"Actually willing to put this kind of honey in the red bean and plum soup, it seems that the Hanfu Restaurant is bound to win this first place!" Ke Pengyi smiled.

"It's a little hard. Cao Yangping shook his head slightly.

"This dish is too expensive. ”

"Huh?"

Ke Pengyi was stunned for a moment and reacted, and suddenly realized!

Indeed, neither the cannon dolphin nor the imperial honey is a dish that ordinary tourists can consume.

The price of this table of big and small Bazhen in Hanfu Restaurant will definitely not be less than 4,000 yuan per table.

Ordinary tourists come out to travel, at most a family of five or six people, it is impossible to eat this table, and if it is a tour group, it is impossible to draw four or five thousand to eat a meal, so as a representative dish, it is indeed a little valuable.

"If you roast (rǔ) the pig and change it to a platter and reduce the consistency, you can consider it. The official judges from the organizing committee expressed their opinions.

"You can even make small portions, the same for each dish, so that you can meet the needs of tourists. ”

"It's fine, but it doesn't taste like it's fresh. Cao Yangping frowned, feeling that this kind of behavior of having to do everything in advance and go directly is a kind of disrespect to the cuisine.

Ke Pengyi also heard what this judge meant, but because the other party was official (shēn), he didn't say anything, and began to taste other dishes with a smile.

As a veteran restaurant, the quality of the dishes can still be guaranteed, at least in his opinion, the performance of these dishes is stable, even if it cannot be used as a business card of Jingling City, it is worth ordering it once.

"It's best to get some Imperial Honey!" Ke Pengyi thought very wonderfully.

The cannon dolphin needs to be cut, and with Cao Yangping here, Qiao Xin doesn't have to go up to help.

With a stroke of the knife, the cracking sound of puff pastry cracking sounded at the right time.

With a few simple knives, the porpoise is cut into several pieces, and the bones (ròu) are separated just right. Qiao Xin even doubted that Cao Yangping could easily use this dinner knife to complete the action of deboning the whole dolphin.

The eyes of the other people at the table who looked at Cao Yangping were also a little abnormal, they were thinking about how many cannon dolphins Cao Yangping had eaten to have such a technique.

"If you practice knife work, you can cut more raw and cooked ones. After Cao Yangping finished speaking, everyone present suddenly realized and began to thank him.

"Sure enough, Master Cao is amazing!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Master Cao!"

......

Cao Yangping nodded, put down the knife and sandwiched the best part of the pork chop that had just been cut back into his bowl.

When he took the knife, he felt that this piece (ròu) was thick and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and there seemed to be some crispy bones on the bones, and the jujube fragrance was rich.

When he got to the entrance, it was exactly what he thought.

The jujube fragrance inside has a baked burnt aroma, sweet but not greasy, which just makes the porpoise not so greasy, and the outer honey-stained skin is also mixed with imperial honey, and the aroma is extraordinarily strong.

Everyone present followed the chopsticks, and for a while the room was filled with the fragrance of the porpoise and the sound of swallowing saliva.

After a while, everyone returned to their senses and began to score Zhou Bazhen of Hanfu Restaurant.

9.5 points.

A relatively good result, just below Jingling Hotel.

After that, another team served the food, but the score did not exceed 9.2 points, and on the judges' seat, the two eyes slowly converged in one place, locked on the silent team that had not yet completed the competition.

The game is coming to an end!
