245 The Great Harmony of the World (2-in-1)

'The altar is full of meat incense floating around the neighborhood, and the Buddha hears and abandons Zen and jumps over the wall'

Back then, there was a poor sour show who wrote this poem, and since then, 'Buddha jumping over the wall' has become famous, and it is the first in Min cuisine.

Huai Liangren is proficient in major cuisines, especially Cantonese cuisine and Fujian cuisine, but even he dare not say that he can make the world's first Buddha jumping over the wall.

It is because this dish pays attention to the thick flavor and complexity, not the taste of a dish can be unique, absorbing the strengths of others, with countless thick, greasy, thick, umami flavors into one taste, one taste covers all flavors, but it is different from all tastes.

The authentic Buddha jumps over the wall, paying attention to 'the soup is as thick as porridge, fresh and thick as paste, the entrance is fragrant and glutinous, and one hundred is one'

Although the ingredients are not as exaggerated as hundreds of them, there are more than a dozen kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

There are: abalone, sea cucumber, hoof tendon, shark fin, fish lip, fish maw, scallops, shark fin, mushrooms, pork ribs and so on......

Authentic Buddha jumping over the wall not only contains these materials, but each material requires excellence,

For example, abalone should use "nine-headed abalone" at the minimum, sea cucumber should use sea cucumber, and fish maw should use stew-resistant grouper gelatin......

These high-end ingredients are not eaten by ordinary people, and I am afraid they have never even heard of them.

To put it simply, Buddha jumping over the wall is to make more than a dozen dishes first, and then put them in one place to stew over slow fire, the best utensils are purple sand stew cups, and if it is old sand and old cups,

This cup must not be stewed with other dishes, it is best to be 'special cup',

It is only used to make the Buddha jump over the wall, so that the cup can be raised for more than three years, and the result can be twice the result with half the effort.

Zhou Dong asked Zhou Aiguo to go to Yan Yi to learn this dish that day, but he didn't expect Yan Fatzi to be so professional, and he actually had a cup that had been raised for ten years.

That day, I went to taste Yan Yi's craftsmanship with Huailiangren, and only then did I know that this cup was specially used by him to stew Buddha and jump over the wall for himself to eat......

In fact, what was even more surprising was Yan Yi,

He couldn't have imagined that the Buddha who he had studied for more than ten years would still be stewed out of this ten-year-old cup, and Zhou Dong would still be able to eat the problem, and hit the nail on the head, which made him and Zhou Aiguo feel that they have benefited a lot.

Yan Fatzi even envied Zhou Aiguo a little, with a teacher like Zhou Mianwang, in a few years, this kid will be able to pay it back?

It's a pity that Lao Yan already has a teacher, and he is still the kind of disciple who passes on the mantle, he must not betray his master, and he can only hope that he will rely on Chudu in the future and have a relationship with this 'King of Zhoumen' who is also a teacher and a friend.

In fact, soaking all kinds of ingredients Yan Yi is an expert,

If Zhou Dong doesn't use the legendary vegetable washing skills, I'm afraid he will be far inferior to him in this regard.

As for making some ingredients into seven or eight mature dishes in the early stage, the two are also comparable in this regard.

Zhou Dongying won in the ability to taste food and understand the way of food.

There are two of the most difficult types of cuisine in the world, one is the simplest, such as egg fried rice, and the other is the most complex, such as Buddha jumping over the wall.

The former is from simple to complex, seemingly shortcut, but in fact it is still a technique!

Is Zhou Dong's plum blossom egg fried rice amazing? Even the famous golden egg fried rice is far inferior, but isn't this kind of superb skill of one grain of rice with five slices of egg flower a skill?

The latter is actually from the complex to the simple, is the real 'shortcut', 'seeking' and 'asking'!

To fuse dozens of delicacies and seas into a furnace, you have me, I have you, you are not you, I am not me, empty color, color and color, this is not the Tao?

But even Yan Yi, a layman disciple of Shamen, can't break the 'emptiness' with this dish, and he is still a layman in the master's mouth.

Zhou Dong's words that day made him realize.

"Master Yan's Buddha jumping over the wall has achieved ninety points, but it is still slightly insufficient.

I think the problem is that you can't really blend the flavors of all kinds of ingredients into one oven!"

Yan Yi was very unconvinced at the time: "How to say, I have studied the Buddha jumping over the wall for more than ten years. ”

"The difficulty of Buddha jumping over the wall is not actually in the early stage of soaking and preparing food.

These seem to be very difficult, each chef has a unique secret skill, in fact, it is not worth much, it is nothing more than an adjustment according to the place, because of the material, because of the instrument, because of the person.

For example, if you don't use chemical potions, you have to start soaking at least five days in advance in the north, but three days is enough in Xiangjiang, and this abalone, shark fin, etc., are all the same.

Master Yan didn't hide his selfishness, he was meticulous about patriotism, and even simply told him the simplest and most effective time list and the means of preparing food, he was also a smart child, and he learned ninety percent in a few days, and even I didn't think of it......"

Zhou Dong looked at Yan Yi with gratitude: "But there are some things, even Master Yan didn't notice,

For example, Master Yan only knows the experience taught by his predecessors and summarized by himself, which ingredients should be put into the bottom, second, and middle layers...... Top floor,

I also know how to control the time and heat of the separately, and even over time, a fixed set of procedures has been formed, but I forget that these contents can never be set in stone, but must be adjusted at any time!"

"King Zhoumian, the more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes, why can't I understand it?"

A cup of Buddha jumping over the wall, the chef can do the soaking without loss, the pre-preparation is perfect, and then there is a top-level purple sand cup, and the various ingredients are arranged in order, which will inevitably make a can of top Buddha jumping over the wall, how can there be any adjustment at any time?

Yan Yi looked at Zhou Dong suspiciously at that time, feeling that Zhou Dong was no longer talking about cooking, but metaphysics.

"This is not a metaphysical ......"

On that day, Zhou Dong was like a god* stick sprinkled with golden light all over his body and his mouth was like a river, in front of the three chefs Yan Yi, Huai Liang and Lu Luxin, who were full of doubts, he talked eloquently, calmly like a sect master!

"Master Yan has such doubts, because in your eyes, 'Buddha jumping over the wall' is just a dish.

At most, it's a slightly more expensive and complicated dish.

But to me, this 'Buddha jumping over the wall' is like the world we live in......

Our world is divided into classes, and what about the world of ingredients?

We may not be able to change anything in the real world, but in the world of ingredients, we chefs are the gods who can change everything.

Abalone and shark fin are high, ribs and tendons are just the lower class, maybe in other dishes, this class is difficult to change, but in this 'Buddha jumping over the wall', they are no longer high and low, they are all equally important!

Because in this 'Buddha jumping over the wall', it is necessary to gather the power of various ingredients, abandon the humility of the upper and lower, simplify the complex, and achieve the 'great harmony of the world'!

Yan Yi still remembers how Zhou Dong demonstrated in front of the students,

Buddha jumping over the wall is somewhat like the 'altar dish' of Xiangjiang, each ingredient will be discharged in layers according to a fixed position, which is the experience summed up by countless predecessors, and there will be no mistake.

But in Zhou Dong's hands, the experience of these predecessors and the summary of future generations can be overturned at any time!

When a few bubbles finally bubbled out of the purple sand stew pot and the soup began to churn, Yan watched Zhou Dong quickly open the lid of the cup, pulled Zhou Aiguo over, and pressed his head almost into the stew pot: "Now in the stew pot, which ingredient comes from the most domineering taste?"

"Jiang Juezhu!"

"Yes, Jiang Jiaozhu is responsible for improving freshness, aggression is like fire, if its umami penetrates into various other ingredients, this cup of Buddha jumping over the wall will not be able to achieve a fusion of one taste, the world is the same!

Therefore, at this time, it should be flipped into the bottom of the cup, and especially careful not to come into contact with the shark fin during the flipping process!"

Zhou Dong turned the ingredients very slowly, trying to let Zhou Aiguo see every step clearly, holding a spoon in his left hand to divide the soup, and using chopsticks in his right hand to skillfully avoid all kinds of ingredients, pressing Jiang Juezhu directly into the bottom of the cup.

Abalone, shark fin, hoof tendons, fish maw...... and other ingredients, all at different times and under different temperatures,

Zhou Dong moved to a different position every once in a while, and it wasn't until he finally sniffed deeply that he stopped the seemingly endless tossing and reset the lid of the cup.

After four hours of slow simmering, Yan Yi and others, who were drooling, finally saw the legendary Buddha jumping over the wall.

"Zhou Mian Wang's methods have simply gone beyond the scope of cooking, and he is a real cooking small and fresh like a big country!

I don't know how much of his method can Zhou Aiguo learn?"

Yan Yi looked at the picture on the big screen, he was not present when this VCR was filmed, it was completely the result of Zhou Aiguo's half-month 'penance',

Although he can't make a preliminary judgment based on the taste through the picture, with his experience, he can still judge a top ten by looking at the dishes.

"This purple sand stew pot, I'm afraid it's not the best that has been raised for more than ten years?

And all these kinds of ingredients, all of them are top-notch things, just the method of soaking and cooking, everything is secret! It is not comparable to the middle-class goods in a five-star hotel!"

"Needless to say, just look at the color of the soup, the golden red is like Dantong, the honey paste is like refining, I don't need to eat the ingredients inside, even if you drink the soup, you will have Q elastic teeth!

The judges are blessed, envy ......"

As the camera gradually zoomed in, the Buddha jumping over the wall on the high-definition screen was clearly visible, as in front of him, and the experts in the audience suddenly exclaimed.

Seeing the same precious ingredients half-hidden and half-appeared in the golden-red condensed paste-like soup, not to mention them, even the judges couldn't help but swallow their saliva, including the old poisonous tongues like Yi Zhiyu and Dong Qishen and the old poisonous dragon Guan Dasheng.

Che Zaixi and the dog in the audience also changed slightly, but they didn't expect Zhou Aiguo to choose this dish to compete.

With the thickest taste in the world, and the true freshness of their preparations, this game will be in suspense.

However, Cha Zaixi did not panic, he was worried that he would be deducted some basic points because of the top-level 'Prince Ming', but now he doesn't have to worry at all, Zhou Aiguo's can of Buddha jumping over the wall has used enough delicacies from the mountains and seas, but it is even more luxurious than him.

"The soup is golden and red like ointment, although it is still slightly 'barbaric' compared to what King Zhou Mian did, it can be regarded as the top grade in the Buddha jumping over the wall.

I just don't know what the taste is, can I achieve 'the same world and unique taste'?

Am I crazy? How can I expect this kid to do something that I can't do?

To be able to do 'one cup without three flavors, the main flavor is illustrious 'one gentleman and three husbands and auxiliaries', it should be enough to win the stick, and the world of the king of Zhou Mian is not something that anyone can do. ”

Glancing at Zhou Aiguo, who was full of confidence and walking towards the arena, Yan Yi was proud in anticipation, even these judges didn't have the opportunity to eat Zhou Mian Wang's 'One Taste of the World', what Xiangjiang's 'Poisonous Dragon King', it was not as good as Lao Yan, I have a mouth!

Zhou Aiguo's personality is active and jumpy on weekdays, and when he really arrives on the field, he has a calm temperament and a teacher's style, and he collided with Che Zaixi's eyes and walked to the kitchen area where he was.

Unlike Cha Zaixi, Zhou Aiguo's 'Buddha jumping over the wall' has many processes to be completed before the competition, but his work of soaking various ingredients is carried out under the supervision of relevant personnel of the organizing committee, and now he only needs to complete the post-production process.

Even so, it will take him about four hours to do this 'Buddha jumping over the wall', and he will not be able to seize the opportunity in this competition.

Che Zaixi secretly sneered, 'Buddha jumping over the wall' is a famous Chinese dish, known as the first thick taste, but in his opinion, it is inevitable to lose greasy,

If the Buddha jumps over the wall and is sent to the judges' table first, he may be able to get the affirmation of some judges, after all, the judges are also people, and they are more able to accept this kind of thick food on an empty stomach.

But if the judges have tasted the fresh, delicious and refreshing 'True Fragrant Yin Yang Fish' first, can they still accept the Buddha jumping over the wall?

In Che Zaixi's opinion, he seized this step of the initiative, and basically won this African boy!

The crystal white Busan rice is selected by Cha Jae-hee one by one, and it cannot be used as a rice cooker, which is soulless, and must be used in an ordinary pot.

Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then simmer slowly, and it's best to control the pot by hand and slowly rotate it on the fire to bring out the burnt rice!

The two most difficult parts of this 'real fragrant yin and yang fish' are the traditional cooking method of rice, which cannot really burn but bring out the burnt aroma, which the rice cooker can never do.

Second, you have to be quick and quick!

Considering that there are 30 judges, even if each person is divided into two tablespoons, they have to prepare a king-sized rice bowl, and the rice bowl prepared by Che Zaixi is twice as large as the big old bowl in Ganshan Province, which is like a basin!

After quickly pouring the whole pot of rice into this large rice bowl, Cha Jae-hee picked up the knife and cut the kimchi radishes.

This is not cut in advance, and if the radish is broken too early, a lot of flavor will be lost.

This is the first time that Che Zaixi has shown his knife skills in front of everyone, only to hear the sound of the knife, and the radishes suddenly turned into countless silver threads, which are crystal clear and refreshing.

Cha Jae-hee tightened the knife and shredded the radish to cover the rice in half, drawing an 'S'-shaped dividing line in the middle of the rice.

The heat of the rice pickles the radish to the top, and the refreshing and slightly salty radish flavor rushes up.

"Please 'Prince'!"

Cha Zaixi put down the kitchen knife, but there was an extra silver needle between the index finger and thumb of his right hand.

This needle, three points long, was actually taken out of the freezer, and the tip of the needle was still bubbling with a hint of cold......
