365 inlaid bean sprouts
Baiweisheng is calm on the surface, and his heart is really happy.
I knew that Ling Zhenfeng couldn't help it, and sure enough, he didn't say a few polite words, so he couldn't help it?
Although they still save face for each other inside and out, who doesn't understand the meaning behind 'advice' in the diligent line, even if they don't smash the field openly, they are secretly more energetic.
Zhou Dong glanced at Cang Yanshan, Ling Zhenfeng said politely, I'm afraid not only did he want him to 'instruct' a few words, his skills have improved rapidly recently, in fact, he has long been itchy, and it is nothing to satisfy this fish king;
Cang Yanshan glanced at him and laughed loudly, "Old Ling, don't hide it, isn't it because the ranking of the Qinxing weapon spectrum is one place lower than that of Brother Zhou, and you want to find a chance to learn from each other?"
As long as it is not a business that hates each other and deliberately smashes other people's business, and people learn from each other in diligence, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, and I think no one here will object, but ......"
Ling Zhenfeng's face flushed slightly: "But what?"
Cang Yanshan said with a smile: "It's just a competition for cooking skills, I think you have to add some color, right?"
In addition, you are backward in the ranking of the Qinxing weapon spectrum, today can only be regarded as a 'challenge', if you win, you will naturally have to be promoted, so Master Xiao Zhou does not need to add any color head, this color head should be added by you!"
Ling Zhenfeng nodded: "It makes sense, I don't have any opinion." ”
Since he entered the system, he has risen all the way, and today, when several Chinese chefs are either hidden or only love games, wherever he, the 'master of the Great Interior', goes, even if he is a diligent master, he has to retreat three points, how can he be willing to be suppressed by a young man on the diligent weapon spectrum?
So as long as he has the opportunity to fight with Zhou Dong, he will not object to adding some color, which is originally the rule of Gu Qinxing.
Cang Yanshan smiled and said to Zhou Dong: "Brother Zhou, what do you think is good for Lao Ling to add a lottery?" It doesn't matter, you don't have to save face for me......
"That's okay, since Master Ling said 'advice', that is to me to fight, recently I have been itching on my hands, I want to find a master to fight, if Master Ling loses this time, please ......"
"Lao Zhou, you wait first, it doesn't seem to be your turn yet, right?"
Huai Liangren suddenly interjected: "Master Ling, who is ranked ninth, wants to challenge the eighth, so what can I, the tenth-ranked, do?"
Yan Yi nodded heavily: "Yes, what can I do? If you want me to say, you should ask Master Ling for advice first, presumably Master Ling will definitely be willing to give advice." ”
Compared with Zhou Donglai, these two people have a school of mentorship, and they know much more about the past than Zhou Dong, and they are actually dissatisfied with this 'King of Five Lakes Fish'.
It's because Ling Zhenfeng's opportunity is too good, and it's too easy to 'get the position'.
After the establishment of diplomacy in New China, the most important thing is this national banquet, the British Prime Minister is embarrassed to invite Ma's father to eat fish and chips, if we do this, then we must not be ashamed to throw it to the world, who does not know that Huaxia is a food kingdom?
However, it is more difficult to choose which cuisine and which dishes to use for this national banquet, because the taste of foreigners is not easy to ponder, you are afraid that Sichuan cuisine and Chongqing cuisine will be spicy to them, and you are afraid that you will scare them with Cantonese cuisine, and you will be able to serve Lu cuisine, right?
Come to think of it, it was our beloved founding prime minister who proposed to use the Huaiyang cuisine in Suzhou cuisine, because Huaiyang cuisine is not only exquisite but not lose national character, nor will it be as extravagant as the court cuisine in Shandong cuisine, and the taste is elegant and light, which is the most in line with the golden mean.
And what kind of cuisine is the Huaiyang cuisine from the land of fish and rice?
Fish not only accounts for a very heavy proportion in Huaiyang cuisine, but also a variety of freshwater fish dishes in Huaiyang cuisine are also the most popular among foreigners, most of them don't know how to use chopsticks, none of them can pluck the thorns, how can there be a chance to eat freshwater fish on weekdays?
As long as the chef takes care of the bones of the freshwater fish, these self-eating large marine fish will be able to swallow their tongues into their stomachs!
Therefore, for many years, the Chinese National Banquet has been based on Huaiyang cuisine, and most of them use fish as the main dish.
Ling Zhenfeng can win a resounding name of "King of Five Lakes Fish" in the mastery of Huaiyang cuisine, and he naturally has the ability, but it is also the combination of luck, you can change to a famous chef of Sichuan and Chongqing cuisine to try?
Therefore, the chefs of other cuisines are not convinced by Ling Zhenfeng, thinking that although he also has cooking skills, he also takes advantage of the cuisine; Huai Liang and Yan Yi are both outstanding figures among the young generation of chefs in China, even if they are not completely convinced by Zhou Dong, they often have the heart of transcendence, not to mention this lucky Five Lakes Fish King?
Ling Zhenfeng has a hand in making fish, and he also has the aura of the chef of the national banquet, but he has not yet been recognized as a grandmaster by the people in the diligent line, and the people who want to challenge him are not only Huai Liangren.
"Huai Liangren, a genius of Cantonese cuisine, a French Blue Ribbon winner, I have also heard your name......"
Ling Zhenfeng looked at Huai Liangren and nodded slightly: "It seems that if I can't win against Chef Huai, I am not qualified to challenge Chef Zhou?"
Huai Liangren smiled: "Master Ling is an understanding person. ”
"Well, according to what Lao Cang said just now, since it is you, the tenth place, who challenges me, the ninth place, and I am the first in the ranking of the Qinxing Weapons Spectrum, but if I win, I hope Chef Huai can come to Kyoto, and we still lack a second chef who cooks Western food......"
Huai Liangren's face changed, and he sneered: "Then it's a word!"
When foreign friends visit, it is natural to entertain them with Chinese cuisine, so what does the chef who wants to cook Western food do in Kyoto?
Of course, he is responsible for the breakfast and some snacks of foreign guests, it is not the breakfast department of Kyushu Ding Food, Ling Zhenfeng asked him to be in charge of breakfast at the 'State Banquet Table', although it is not an insult to him, but it is also a contempt.
Huai Liangren naturally had no interest in going to Kyoto to make breakfast for foreigners, and he didn't believe that Ling Zhenfeng, a guy who relied on luck, could win himself, what the king of fish of the five lakes, he didn't pay much attention to.
Yan Yiyi: "Slow, what is Master Ling going to compare with Lao Huai? If it is compared to Western food, I am afraid that you will be invincible, if it is compared to fish, then it is unfair to Lao Huai, Mr. Bai, what do you say?"
Although Baiweisheng will also measure the comprehensive strength of the diligent masters, such as those chefs and Zhou Dong, they are all cattle people with strong comprehensive strength, but it is more important to consider the strength of a skill, for example, Ling Zhenfeng is the most powerful fisher, so he got the name of 'King of Five Lakes Fish', and he was listed as the ninth in the Qinxing weapon spectrum.
But when it comes to the competition of fighting vegetables, it is a little difficult, if everyone wants to play to their strengths and avoid weaknesses, it will inevitably be unfair.
Yes, how can this be compared? Everyone nodded one after another, and Yan Yi was on the point.
Bai Weisheng thought for a while and said: "In this way, Huai Chef is from Cantonese cuisine, Sichuan-Chongqing and Western food, so these three cuisines and Western food are not included in the competition."
Chef Ling was born in the Huaiyang Department of Su cuisine, so Su cuisine and Zhejiang cuisine similar to Su cuisine are not included in the competition.
When I saw Chef Zhou, I remembered an interesting comparison......"
Zhou Dong was stunned, and said in his heart You really have a lot of ideas, otherwise you would not have thought of getting some diligent weapon spectrum, and it turned out to be full of wind and rain.
"I heard that Chef Zhou temporarily learned a lot of Hong Kong cuisine in order to earn additional points in the Hong Kong International Food Competition, and although the learning time was short, he won the unanimous praise of the judges.
I thought that this was the real demonstration of a chef's ability, and now that the two of them are comparing, they can learn from Chef Zhou and choose a dish that they are not familiar with to compete, what do you think?"
Zhou Dong's face turned red when he heard this, his study time was short?Well, it seems a little embarrassing to be praised like this......
"That's it. ”
Huai Liangren looked at him and said, "Lao Zhou, since I want to learn from you, why don't you decide the content of this game?"
Seeing that Zhou Dong seemed to hesitate, he said again: "Don't worry, you can specify the scope of the competition, when it comes to learning to cook new dishes, I haven't been afraid of anyone except you, a demon!"
Ling Zhenfeng also smiled faintly: "Chef Zhou is even if the question is." ”
"Then let me think about ......"
Zhou Dong looked at the two of them, Ling Zhenfeng begged for a life in the system, no matter how he looked at it, he should not be as good as the real genius of Huai Liangren in terms of his ability to learn new dishes, as long as he tried to find a side dish or even a snack for the two of them to do, Lao Huai's winning side was big.
He is not a saint, he can help Lao Huai secretly, since he knew himself, Lao Huai was not lightly hit, is it easy for others?
"When I think about it, the ingredients used in this dish are both vegetables and meat, which not only tests the patience of the chef, but also tests the chef's skills in controlling the heat and wok in the wok and has a long history that can be traced back to the origins.
However, because it is too troublesome to make, it has basically been abandoned by the chef, whether it is in a five-star hotel or a fly restaurant on the side of the road, you can't order this dish. ”
Bai Weisheng smiled: "It can't be some lost dishes, or only food that is only seen in literary works, right?"
"Not really. ”
Zhou Dong said with a smile: "Where is it so easy to restore those lost famous dishes in a short period of time, and I can't have such a problem.
This dish was originally not in any of the cuisines, or when I was in the hospital for treatment, I heard an elder talk about it, it is said that the Empress Dowager Cixi had a strange disease, her diet was weak, and she was only willing to eat vegetarian, but the imperial doctor thought that she had to eat meat dishes to supplement her food, and many imperial chefs had a headache, so a young chef came up with a solution......
"Aren't you talking about bean sprouts?"
Bai Weisheng said with a smile: "This dish is also known as 'Silver Silk Jade Pillar', created in the late Qing Dynasty, but this chef is a 'Haiqing' born in the fire, but he only entered the imperial dining room because of fate, and there is no cuisine teacher, so it is not wrong to say that it is not in the major cuisines."
Hehe, but this dish can take enough effort, not only the intention of preparing the dish, but also the first-class fire and frying skills on the stove, a little careless, the effort spent on the preparation of the dish in front of it will be in vain.
Haha, the two chefs are really going to sell their strength this time, and we will wait and see. ”
“......”
Hearing that it was this dish, Huai Liang and Ling Zhenfeng looked at Zhou Dong with a very resentful gaze at the same time, and said in their hearts, "Do I have a grudge against you, what do you choose to choose this dish?"
Are you trying to kill a stupid boy?
The two chefs wanted to cry without tears.
This inlaid bean sprouts is also known as silver silk jade pillar, the practice is extremely cumbersome, first of all, we must choose the 'long and thick' soybean sprouts, remove the bean sprouts head, only use the body stem, use the silver needle to hollow out the inside of the bean sprouts a little bit, and can not hurt the bud wall.
After these preparations are made, you need to choose the best ham, cut it into thin shredded ham with extremely exquisite knife skills, and then fill it with shredded ham, and finally stir-fry it in a pot, which can be sour, sweet, spicy or salty according to the taste of diners.
It tastes like a vegetarian with meat and meat in the meat, the ham is glutinous and soft, and the bean sprouts are crisp.
Is this dish delicious or not? Is it really delicious, otherwise why did the Empress Dowager Cixi refuse to eat all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas during her illness, so she preferred to eat this dish?
But there are too few chefs who are willing to make this dish, because it is too troublesome, and you may not be able to make a small plate even if you spend most of the day's effort, and who will be stupid to do such a dish if it is not a knife on the neck? After all, the raw materials are bean sprouts and ham, and if you say the sky, it will not be able to sell the price of double-headed abalone.
The two of them never expected that Zhou Dong would choose this dish, staring at Zhou Dong with resentful eyes for a while, the eyes of the two were replaced with suspicion, and they always felt that Zhou Dong had wanted to eat this dish for a long time, but he was too lazy to do it, so he took this opportunity to catch their strong men......
Huai Liangren couldn't help but complain: "Old Zhou, you must have done it on purpose, right?"
"It's not as difficult as you think......"
Zhou Dong shook his head with a smile, didn't he say that the three-star Michelin chef was the least afraid of cumbersome and delicate dishes?
"There are people in Fengqi Village who soak bean sprouts, you can go directly to pick them, which is much fresher than the bean sprouts that are transported to the vegetable market for sale, and there is less rust.
As for the ham, I will have someone send it from Kyushu Dingshi now, and it is all first-class Jinhua ham.
Well, if there are no other questions, you can start now. ”
Huai Liangren and Ling Zhenfeng glanced at each other, and the two sighed in their hearts at the same time, now they have to accept their fate if they don't admit their fate.
For example, Huai Liang and Ling Zhenfeng are such positions, no matter which restaurant they go to, they are all the same characters, even if they want to make this dish of bean sprouts that can tire children to death, there are countless handymen to do it, at least the early stage of material selection, soaking and deodorization and other work can be handed over to experienced handymen to do.
Now it is necessary to do it yourself from the beginning of the purchase, and the scene of the dignified Blue Ribbon winner and the chef of the national banquet running to the villager's house with a basket to choose bean sprouts is not too beautiful.
After the two bitter children walked all the way back to Tingtao Courtyard with baskets, they looked up at the sky, and did not dare to delay a minute or a second, first soaked the bean sprouts in an odorless stainless steel basin, gently scrubbed them, and removed the unique beany gas, which alone took more than an hour.
After the bean sprouts are washed, it is the real hell time, the two top chefs move a small stool, sit at the small table with a silver needle and carefully prick the bean sprouts, this step has little to do with the cooking skills, you are carving to the realm of supernatural skills, you also need to have enough patience, not only to take out the meat in the root of the bean sprouts, but also not to pierce the outer wall, think about it to know how perverted this job is.
Zhou Dong and several people temporarily acted as judges, regardless of priority, they all had the responsibility of supervising the tasting and evaluation points before and after the dishes, and it was not easy to leave, so they simply drank tea and ate snacks at the same time, watching the two of them prepare hard, Zhou Dong suddenly blamed himself, is this too much, the dish I chose seems to be really tricky......
