This inlaid bean sprouts made everyone wait for a long time, but a good meal is not afraid of being late, and even the poisonous tongue in Baiweisheng's poisonous tongue was not impatient at all, during which he ate some side dishes, drank some wine, and talked and laughed with Zhou Dong.

It is said that they are all diligent and honest, from the diligent eight doors of purity, fire, wind, mouth, utensils, medicine, grass, and color, all the way to the eighteen famous shops in modern China, among which Hua Cuiju and Huaxia Banquet Palace are how to collect the world's famous chefs and faintly take charge of Huaxia Qinxingniuer...... The story of a group of cooks was told by him like martial arts, and people couldn't help but be fascinated by it.

These stories about the ancient and modern diligence of China are exactly what Zhou Dong doesn't know very well, and now it is good to have a diligence know-it-all to explain to him, but for some reason, Bai Weisheng just kept silent about the Hu Shenchu that Zhou Dong wanted to know the most, as if it was deliberate.

Zhou Dong wanted to take the initiative to ask several times, but in the end he held back, Grandpa He said, when someone deliberately hangs your appetite, you must not drool, and people may not take care of the food if they are bleeding! At that time, a little nurse also laughed at Grandpa He for being a crazy man, but now the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that Grandpa He's words make sense.

"Mr. Bai, does this diligent eight doors still exist today?

Is there still a connection between Huacui Residence, Huaxia Banquet Palace and these eight gates?"

Recently, Gu Yanan likes to talk to Zhou Dong when she has nothing to do, but Zhou Dong refuses to go, so she comes to the big wine vat to consume.

Anyway, she is also the executive president of Kyushu Dingshi, and Zhou Dong is embarrassed to hang her, and she has heard a lot of things about these two top restaurants from her.

It is no secret that these two top hotels have shares of the Fan family behind them, and the Fan family is diligent and heirloom, but they will not covet other industries, but for the 'spoiler' that suddenly appeared like Shangzhou Group, the Fan family is obviously not prepared to engage in any 'peace'.

Originally, Zhou Dong was not interested in the competition between Shangzhou Group and the Fan family, but this time Fan Mingren did a lot of things aimed at himself, so he couldn't help but pay a little attention.

"Hehe, Chef Zhou is young and promising, but he doesn't know how domineering he was back then. ”

Bai Yusheng said with a smile: "At that time, the top chefs of the major cuisines, and even some grandmasters, were either from the eight sects of diligence, or they had various connections with it.

For example, if a chef wants to open a restaurant in a certain place, he must first agree to the local chef guild, but behind these chef guilds, in fact, the eight doors of diligence are controlled behind the scenes. ”

Zhou Dong was puzzled: "Could it be that the diligence of that era was not divided by cuisine, but by the eight doors of diligence?"

"Hehe, Chef Zhou doesn't know something......"

Baiweisheng said with a smile: "The so-called eight doors are actually some top chefs who have different concepts in the way of food, and each has its own emphasis.

For example, the 'Jingzimen' believes that the early processing of ingredients is the most important, even more than the later anvil cutting and stir-frying; for example, the 'Qizimen' believes that the knife skill is the most important, and gives an example of the ancients' eating of the tart, where is there any frying and frying? Whether the fish is delicious or not, in addition to the fish itself, is completely regarded as the knife skill!

Another example is the color word door......

And the major cuisines of China intersect with the eight doors of Qinxing, you have me, I have you, there are chefs in Lu cuisine, but there are no more Cantonese cuisines and Sichuan cuisines?"

"Mr. Bai is right......"

Yan nodded and said: "My master also said the same, but the master didn't say anything about the reason for the demise of the eight sects of diligence." ”

"What else could be the reason?

Soon after the establishment of New China, private taverns and restaurants were banned, and they were changed to public ownership at one time, and they advocated frugality and demanded a comprehensive 'canteen......

Originally, no one would have a hard time with a group of cooks, but they were noticed by the customs department as soon as they made such a fuss, but the name of the eight doors of diligence has the nature of XXX, and the result was that it was quickly cleared, causing many people to leave the eight doors.

Now some celebrity chefs and grandmasters were either born in the eight schools back then, or had various connections with them, but they don't want to mention the events of that year anymore. ”

Bai Weisheng smiled and said: "Don't underestimate Ling Zhenfeng, think that he is just lucky to be the chef of the national banquet, if I am not mistaken, he should be the heir of the 'wind' word ......."

"Fengzimen, is that the one responsible for blowing the fire and fanning the wind?"

Zhou Dong asked casually, and the rest of the eight doors can roughly guess the direction by listening to the name, only this wind word door is a little difficult to understand, but it shouldn't be what he guessed.

Baiweisheng laughed: "If Chef Zhou's words are heard by the people of Fengzimen, I am afraid that they will be angry."

It's not as you might think, the so-called 'wind' refers to the wind chaser in the diligent walk.

This sect is eclectic, and the disciples it teaches are all highly capable of learning, do you know what Ling Zhenfeng did before he became a celebrity chef in Huaiyang cuisine?"

Yan Yi smiled and said, "I can't guess this." ”

He lived in Smecta for three years, during which time he became the most famous dog meat chef in Smecta Country......

After returning to China, he devoted himself to studying the practice of various fish, and even created the famous dish of "Hundred Fish Hengjiang", and five years later, he became the chef of the national banquet!

The heirs of the Fengzimen have a goal in all dynasties, that is, to enter the dynasty as the imperial chef!

Hehe, so if you think that Ling Zhenfeng, the 'King of Five Lakes Fish', is only good at making fish, then you are very wrong.

I can guarantee that if the main dish at the state banquet is changed to Luohan tofu in a few years, he will immediately switch to vegetarian food, and maybe he will worship under the old presiding officer of Lingyin Temple, and become a senior brother with Yan Chef......"

Bai Weisheng said with a smile: "However, the Fengzimen has also been despised by the people in the diligent industry because of this, and has always suffered from white eyes, if they can't enter the system, it's really not easy to mix." ”

These words are not behind Cangyanshan, the Huaxia Wine King is not in the diligent circle, and he also knows a little about these diligent deeds, and he listens to them with relish.

"If that's the case, I'm afraid Ling Zhenfeng's learning ability is not under the old man's arms?"

Zhou Dong frowned slightly when he heard this, and began to worry a little about Huai Liangren.

It wasn't until a quarter past two o'clock in the afternoon that two inlaid bean sprouts were placed in front of the four people, and they saw a small pile of bean sprout stalks stacked on two white porcelain plates, because they were carefully selected in advance, each bean sprout stalk was almost the same fat and thin length, but there was a faint hint of golden red in the hollowed out of the inside.

At first glance, it looks like gold hidden in jade, whether it is delicious or not, but it is absolutely first-class.

It is estimated that these two plates of bean sprouts together are about 200 roots, but each one has put in countless efforts.

First hollow out the bean sprout stalks, and then cut the processed Jinhua ham into hair-thin with extremely clever knife skills, and then stuff the ham shreds into the bean sprouts stalks with water milling skills......

Not only should the shredded ham not be broken when it is stuffed in, but also in the later frying process, it is also necessary to avoid any damage.

You can imagine the two top chefs standing in front of the stove cautiously, and it is estimated that they don't even dare to take a few more breaths when they start stir-frying this dish, right?

Cang Yanshan couldn't help but want to laugh, feeling that he was still very happy to be a winemaker.

"Chef Zhou, Cangjiu King, please ......"

Barilla first looked at the dishes, and only after being satisfied did he nod slightly and pick up the chopsticks.

"Brother Cang, please too, let's try this dish that the Empress Dowager Cixi loved to eat back then. ”

Zhou Dong greeted Cang Yanshan with a smile, and also took two inlaid bean sprouts and put them in his mouth.

If you eat this kind of delicate and small amount of dishes, you have to use less slowly, and if you fill the chopsticks at one time, it is estimated that there is a high probability that you will be beaten......

This dish is very troublesome to make, but the taste is not as domineering as 'hard dishes' such as Buddha jumping over the wall, sweet and sour Yellow River carp, etc., and the entrance will be amazing.

At first entry, it is actually similar to ordinary stir-fried bean sprouts, the taste is crisp and tough, with a faint bean aroma, and you need to chew a few times to slowly feel the fresh and fatty aroma of the ham.

Because only the thin hair of ham meat is inside, it is often eaten by diners when they first feel the deliciousness of the ham, and then one by one they are like the second brother of the pig who swallowed the ginseng fruit.

Rather than holding a whole ham and nibbling it, the shredded ham hidden in the sprouts seems to be the most delicious thing in the world, and diners will subconsciously slow down their eating speed and fully mobilize their lips and tongues to feel this exquisite dish that embodies the spirit of craftsmanship.

"This dish is not for the hungry, it is most suitable for people like the Empress Dowager Cixi who eat all day long and the most picky gourmet......

Zhou Dong looked at the smile on his face, and was picking up the bean sprouts one by one and chewing the slow-swallowing Baiweisheng, and he couldn't help but smile.

If he is given a choice, the boiled fire is much more enjoyable than this plate of bean sprouts.

Seeing that Baiweisheng and Zhou Dong, these 'professionals' were chewing slowly, and Sven looked like a big girl, poor Cang Yanshan, a rough man, didn't dare to eat fast, and desperately slowed down his eating speed, just hoping that Zhou Dong and they would eat up these two plates of bean sprouts quickly, which was too torturous!

It was easy to wait until Baiweisheng picked up the last inlaid bean sprout and ate it, Cang Yanshan secretly exhaled a long breath, only to feel like an amnesty, finally broke through the darkness and saw the light: "The three of you are eating too slowly, and I am in a hurry to die!"

I wonder what the outcome will be?"

Huai Liangren and Ling Zhenfeng were also a little nervous, and looked at the three temporary judges at the same time.

"Chef Zhou can learn so many Xiangjiang delicacies in a short period of time, and he can quickly master it, a spiritual tongue is indispensable, I don't know what you think of these two inlaid bean sprouts?"

Baiweisheng was also very curious about Zhou Dong's ability to appreciate food, and opened two dimples and smiled at Zhou Dong, but he refused to comment first.

"Hehe, there are food experts like Mr. Bai, of course, Mr. Bai is the first to judge, not to mention that I am friends with Lao Huai, if I let me say it first, I'm afraid it is not fair to Master Ling. ”

That's the same thing. ”

Bai Weisheng nodded with a smile, glanced at Huai Liangren and said, "Both of them are diligent and strong, if it is only a rough conclusion, they should be ...... between the two of them."

Huai Liang said: "There is still a difference between the two and the middle, who is the uncle and who is the middle?"

Bai Weisheng's glance at him was obviously profound, but Huai Liangren didn't think that he would lose to Ling Zhenfeng, so he naturally wanted to ask the question to the end.

"If I have to say it, I'm afraid Chef Huai is going to do this 'Zhong'......"

Baiweisheng smiled: "The two of them use the same ingredients and water sources, and even the back kitchen is the same as the venue provided by Chef Zhou, and the back kitchen of the Zhou family's Tingtao Courtyard must also be satisfactory to the two of them."

Therefore, it is necessary to divide the winners and losers, one is to look at the quantity, and the other is to look at the quality.

I counted just now, Chef Ling made a total of one hundred and eight bean sprouts, while Chef Huai made one hundred and six, but there were two missing. ”

Yan Yi frowned and said, "I'm afraid that two of them are missing, it won't mean anything, right?"

"Non-......"

Bai Weisheng smiled and shook his head: "If it is an ordinary stir-fried bean sprouts, a few or even dozens of them will not mean anything, but this inlaid bean sprouts is very labor-intensive, and it is not only the patience of the chef, but also the proficiency of the cooking."

In the same amount of time, but two less than people, this already says something......

Moreover, I ate 47 of Chef Huai's 102 inlaid bean sprouts, but when I ate 33 or 46 sprouts, I found that Chef Huai may have been careless when stir-frying, and the 33rd bean sprouts are slightly older, while the 46th is slightly more tender, which is really a fly in the ointment. ”

"You old thing, you have to eat bean sprouts one by one?"

Cang Yanshan was stupid, but he felt extremely indignant in his heart, and he really couldn't understand how such a poisonous tongue could survive to this day?

He didn't know what the chefs thought, and if the wine he brewed was picked by someone like this, he would have thrown it out a long time ago.

Huai Liangren's face changed slightly when he heard this, and recalled that when he was frying inlaid bean sprouts, he had been distracted and peeked at Ling Zhenfeng next to him, and the problem of these two bean sprouts should have appeared at that time.

Baiweisheng is really famous, and he can eat even such a little problem?

"Because it's everyone who eats, I can't say that it must be Chef Huai who lost.

However, I ate Chef Ling's forty-seven sticks, and I also ate your forty-seven sticks, but I didn't find any flaws in Chef Ling's place, so I said that I am afraid that Chef Huai will lose this time. ”

"Actually lost?"

Huai Liangren shook his head secretly, it was not that his cooking skills were inferior to Ling Zhenfeng, but he valued him too much as the chef of the national banquet, and he was distracted at a critical moment, so he could only blame himself for losing.

However, thinking that I will go to Kyoto to make breakfast for a group of foreign guests in the future, I am afraid that it will take a long time to see Lao Zhou and be spurred by him from time to time, and I can't help but feel sad.

After Baiweisheng finished commenting, he turned his head to look at Zhou Dong and said with a smile: "I don't know what Chef Zhou thinks?"

"If you want me to look at it, I'm afraid it's hard to say whether you win or lose......"

Zhou Dong said with a smile: "I ate thirty-one of Master Ling's bean sprouts, and Lao Huai's is also thirty-one.

It's also a coincidence, I didn't have anything wrong with it, but I found that one of Master Ling's bean sprouts was flawed.

There is no problem with the pre-treatment of this bean sprout, and the salty heat is also well controlled, but unfortunately the ham shreds embedded in the bean stalk are broken......

Chef Ling might as well think about it, when you stir-fried this inlaid bean sprouts, was it because you were used to making fish, and you used a little more force when you stir-fried the last time?"

Ling Zhenfeng was stunned for a moment.

Chefs cook fish without turning easily, and almost always rely on boiling water to make the fish familiar inside and out, because no matter how skilled the chef is, there is no 100% guarantee that the flesh will not be damaged in the slightest when turning the fish.

Moreover, when guests eat fish, they must lower their chopsticks from above, which can also ensure that the upper layer of fish is the most tender and delicious.

But this brings a problem, if you don't turn the fish and completely rely on boiling water to roll and steam, you need to pour more soup, and if there is too much soup, the taste will be affected.

Ling Zhenfeng is famous for his fish, how could he be confused by this? Therefore, when he roasted the fish, the soup was only soaked in half of the fish body at most, and when the soup was only one-third of the fish body, at this time ninety percent of the fish meat was cooked, but the top layer was still slightly tender, and the soup in the pot was not thick or light, and the taste was fresh and delicious, and no more water could be added or added to the water.

So at this time, you need to turn the body of the fish, the average chef is not 100% sure, but he can do it with his eyes closed, over the years, this skill has even become his habit.

As a result, when the bean sprouts were stir-fried for the last time before they came out of the pot, the king of fish was accustomed to nature, and the strength in his hand was slightly larger, and he actually broke the ham shreds in a certain bean sprout.

With such a small flaw, Zhou Dong can actually eat it?

Bai Weisheng frowned and said, "Chef Ling, is this the case?"

The sprouts with broken ham shreds were eaten by Zhou Dong, and he could only get evidence from Ling Zhenfeng, if this was the case, Zhou Dong's ability to taste food was probably no longer below him.

Ling Zhenfeng hesitated for a moment, and finally let out a long sigh: "Originally, I thought that Mr. Bai was the best eater in Huaxia, but now it seems that there is another ......

Chef Zhou is right, it is a matter of habit, and I really didn't control the strength of the stir-fry at the end. ”

Is this all right?

After eating a few bean sprouts, he felt tasteless and began to miss the pig's head meat and braised beef in the big wine tank, Cang Yanshan, stared at Zhou Dong with wide eyes, eat so finely, brother, aren't you tired?"

Bai Weisheng nodded: "If that's the case, then it depends on what Chef Yan and Cangjiu King say, otherwise it's really hard to judge the winner." ”

Cang Yanshan immediately shook his head again and again: "Don't ask me, Lao Cang, I ate a few bean sprouts......

What's so good about this thing? There's not a lot of meat, I can't say anything. ”

Yan Yi looked at Huai Liangren, and then at Ling Zhenfeng: "Although I really want to say that Lao Huai won you, but my conscience tells me no."

Uh, do you think that a person who can get excited about eating roast goose will have a way to evaluate such a delicate and complicated thing as bean sprouts, or don't embarrass me, Buddha Midha!"

Bai Weisheng looked at Zhou Dong and said with a smile: "In this way, your and my opinions will become one to one, how about counting the two of them to a draw?"

Zhou Dong nodded: "It's okay if it's flat." ”

"Well, if that's the case, neither side needs to make any colors, the ranking on the Qinxing weapon spectrum will not change, and Chef Huai won't have to go to Kyoto, what do you think?"

Huai Liangren nodded first: "Well, so be it." ”

Fortunately, Lao Zhou's tongue is smart enough, far surpassing his 'Yi Yin's tongue' and has the potential to become 'Yi Yin's dog's tongue', otherwise he would have to keep his promise to go to Kyoto, and now he is very lucky, what else is there to compete for?

Ling Zhenfeng looked at Zhou Dong and said, "I didn't expect Chef Zhou to be a great gourmet, which makes me even more surprised, and I want to learn from you even more, Chef Zhou, it's our turn now, right?"

He and Huai Liangren neither lost nor won this game, and now they are challenging Zhou Dong, Huai Liangren is not good to say anything, Yan Yi looked at Ling Zhenfeng, subconsciously shrank his neck, and secretly said in his heart: "Mida Buddha...... The master said that those who are good at fighting do not fight, so I will not learn from Lao Huai......"

Cang Yanshan is indispensable, and even some expect Zhou Dong to win Ling Zhenfeng fiercely, and also vent his grievances for him, Baiweisheng is even more happy to see it, haha smiled: "Wonderful, if the two want to compare, I can be the 'chief judge'." ”

Zhou Dong smiled: "It's okay, I also want to try Master Ling's craftsmanship."

That's right, Master Ling is famous for fish, if you can't eat the fish you make, it would be a pity, how about the two of us make fish?"

"Oh, Chef Zhou wants to compare fish with me?"

Ling Zhenfeng was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Zhou Dong carefully, feeling that the other party's complexion was normal, it should be that he didn't have a fever?

Could it be that this chef Zhou seems to be young, but he actually knows the truth of being a man and has a very high emotional intelligence, which is deliberately selling his favor?

Yes, how can I say that he is also the chef of the national banquet and a person in the system, although he is famous, but after all, he is young, how can he not consider the future advancement?

Yes, this young man is very smart, and he is a good cook, and he can make good wine, isn't that what Kyoto needs?

Ling Zhenfeng looked at Zhou Dong and nodded repeatedly, he had already calculated that he was going to make a statement to the top and arrange a position for this diligent young grandmaster.

"At least it must be a second chef, otherwise I will be sorry for the identity of the dignified 'God Hand'!"

"Lao Zhou, what do you think? The other party is not simple, even the inlaid bean sprouts that chefs rarely make can be better than me, let alone the fish that he is famous for, why do you bother?"

Huai Liangren found an opportunity and whispered in Zhou Dong's ear: "It's better to let Baiwei Sheng specify the content of the game, he ran to Fengqi Mountain to live for no reason, no matter how you look at it, it is intentional to you, even if it is not deliberately towards you, at least it will ensure fairness." ”

Zhou Dong nodded at him with a smile, and then said, "Master Ling, if there is no problem, it will be decided, and the content of our competition is - fish!"

Huai Liangren is stunned, how can you be like this?

Ling Zhenfeng said with a smile: "Since Chef Zhou said so, it would be too hypocritical for me to refuse, but since I took advantage, I might as well announce the dishes I want to cook in advance, so that Chef Zhou can also know himself and his opponent." ”

Zhou Dong shook his head and said, "Actually, Master Ling doesn't have to do this. ”

"It must be, otherwise I will take too much advantage, and Ling will not be happy in his heart.

Besides, this dish originally needs to be prepared in advance, and it is estimated that you will not be able to taste it until noon tomorrow. ”

Hearing him say this, Baiweisheng couldn't help but be a little curious: "I don't know what Chef Ling's dish is?"

I'm not boasting, I'm afraid there is no way to make fish in the world that I don't know. ”

"Hehe, my dish is actually the eighth way to eat fish......
