272 Lu Cai Grandmaster Wang Haibin
The morning with the bright sun always makes people feel happy, if you can have hundreds of millions of dollars in your waist, stand in a high place, and have a villa in the holy place of Xiangjiang, then the mood will definitely be even happier.
Many literati are preaching their 'simple' pastoral thoughts, Tao Yuanming is the most typical example, once said 'don't bend your waist for five buckets of rice' rhetoric, whoever is moved by this is a big fool, because you don't know that he actually has 500 buckets of rice at home, even if the cold freezes and starves to death the blind bird, he can't starve his stomach.
These hypocritical literati are no different from the salivating professional foodies, and once they start singing high-pitched songs, they have to be careful, because at this time they are talking lies and empty words.
Zhou Dong found that the title of 'Diligent Grand Master' not only made his students more savvy and good at learning, but also had a passive effect, that is, it made his mind more clear, so he saw through the 'conspiracy' of the judges at a glance.
The leaders of this group of people are Cai Chongjiu, Yi Zhiyu, and Dong Qishen, no matter how lofty and impassioned they are about restoring ancient dishes, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is a sentence 'they are hungry and want to eat'.
And you have to eat the best.
Ladder duck paw?
Zhou Dong stood on the platform of the Zhu family's villa, looking into the distance, looking at the crowd frolicking on the coast below, he was in a very good mood, but when he thought of this problem, his mood suddenly became not very good.
If he didn't understand that this was a group of professional foodies trying to satisfy his appetite, he would even suspect that someone had seen through his system and found his weaknesses.
The ladder duck palm is related to a well-known figure in history, that is, Gan Fengchi, who was shaped by Liang Hansheng as a hero of Jiangnan.
Gan Fengchi once ate this dish in the Tonghetang Restaurant of Laobei Ping, and was amazed afterwards, but it is a pity that this dish has gradually disappeared in modern times, and has become a delicacy that makes professional foodies such as Cai Chongjiu and Yi Zhiyu salivate.
The difficulty of restoring this ancient dish is similar to cracking Bazhen noodles, and the jury gave this problem, which simply hit him directly on his soft underbelly.
Zhou Dongniu X is that he either has a single high skill, being a dog and a pufferfish, I am the most authentic; or there are recipes given by systematic tasks, although I still have to practice carefully, and I don't have to worry about anything if I have a creative kitchen; or the dishes in this world, I can distinguish the advantages and disadvantages with a perfect taste, and then learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and become a strengthened version in my own hands.
The ladder duck paw is an ancient dish that has been lost for nearly a hundred years, and there are few tasks to reward recipes in the system recently, and Zhou Dong suddenly has a bad feeling that the 'tiger bites the hedgehog' and has nowhere to start.
"What's the matter, you're not going to be stumped too, are you?"
Huai Liangren is now more and more unscrupulous,
Not only did he refuse to leave in the Zhu family villa, but he also discarded his gentlemanly demeanor and began to become unkempt.
Early in the morning, I slipped to the viewing platform in my pajamas, holding a cup of silk socks milk tea and a pineapple bun in my hand, and boasted while eating: "Tsk, your craft is really not covered, and making a milk tea and pineapple bun can be so delicious,
It seems that I made the right decision, and it is much better to stay with you than in a hotel. ”
Zhou Dong glanced at him lightly: "I think your decision is very wrong, no one is welcome to come and live, and you are still eating ......"
"Hehe, Mr. Zhu and I are old friends, what's the problem with living here?"
Huai Liangren smiled proudly: "As for this bit of food, it should be regarded as some rent I collected for Mr. Zhu."
Lao Zhou, I'm actually doing this for your own good,
You take a few students to live here, forget it, Lu Antou is a woman, and you are still colleagues, so it's not good to say it.
It's different with me, my reputation for being diligent in China has always been very good. ”
"I'm actually very skeptical about that......"
Zhou Dong continued to report: "Also, don't forget, I am an opponent with you, and if you get too close, you are afraid that you will be called shady." ”
After Cai Chongjiu announced the content of the ancient dishes of the competition that day, Zhou Aiguo announced on the spot that he would withdraw from the competition with Huai Liangren and obediently admitted the third place.
This is where he is smart, first, he has no ability to restore ancient dishes at all, and secondly, even the content of the teacher's competition will be this dish, whether he does it well or not, it is all slapping the teacher's face, a third place is enough for him Niu X for a lifetime, this kid obviously understands what the wisdom of giving up is.
Now Zhou Dong and Huai Liangren are the ironclad contenders for the championship and runner-up, and they are also the first pair of opponents in the history of the Xiangjiang Food Competition to live in the same villa before the competition.
It's no wonder that Zhou Dong minds, yesterday the Su family Erbao said that he had seen a sneaky guy outside the villa, and suspected that it might be a paparazzi.
"Do you really think you're a sweetheart?"
Huai Liangren took a sip of milk tea and said with a smile: "Don't be hypocritical, you and I are ordinary friends, don't think about it."
If it weren't for this legendary 'ladder duck paw', I might not have come if you invited me.
Lao Zhou, you have to figure out, for a diligent genius like us, can ordinary dishes still arouse our interest?
It is these lost ancient dishes that have some meaning.
It is not so simple to restore an ancient dish that has been lost for nearly 100 years, we can work together to find a way to find the correct way to do this 'ladder duck paw' first, and then do our own thing, and play fairly. ”
After drinking milk tea in a few sips, he took a bite of the pineapple bag and said, "As for who the gold medal champion belongs to, is it so important?"
To tell you the truth, if you hadn't come to participate this time, I might not have come to Hong Kong......"
"You might as well say it directly, you are actually helpless against this 'Heavenly Ladder Duck Palm'. ”
Zhou Dong shook his head.
"Who said that?"
Huai Liangren said angrily: "I know the method, this 'ladder duck palm' is to first soak the duck palm, bulge until it is as fat as a baby's fingers, and then pull out the main bone and tendons.
Then use half of the fat and half ham and cut it into half thick slices.
Add a slice of ham and a duck's paw, then cut spring or winter bamboo shoots into slices, smear them with honey, tie them together with kelp shreds, and steam them thoroughly to eat.
The oil and honey of the ham seep through the duck paw bamboo shoots, the cured pig bamboo shoots are fragrant, and the koji dust lingers, which is extremely delicious. ”
Zhou Dong chuckled and said, "Du Niang is here, right? It looks like that, but I have a question."
Now that Du Niangshang already has the answer, and even the recipe, why is this dish still lost?"
"This ......"
Huai Liangren suddenly said: "How do I know!"
"In fact, when I was in my mother's house, I not only saw the practice of this dish, but also searched for some chefs and restaurants who claimed to have restored this dish, but even if the reviews were made, they were all tangible and not recognized by authoritative figures. ”
These authoritative people mentioned by Zhou Dong are naturally Cai Chongjiu, Yi Zhiyu and other old Xingzun, and now in these years, some people say that they have restored this dish and that dish, but they are basically gimmicks, and they can fool ordinary consumers.
"So, there is a recipe on Mingdu Niang, but this dish is still lost, which means that this recipe is either wrong, or this dish has extremely high requirements for heat and experience, even if you tell you the recipe, you can't make an authentic taste. ”
"What then?"
Huai Liangren said depressedly: "Isn't there even a way for you?"
"It's not like there's no way, is the chef who created this dish back then a god, and we can't make it?
If I was given enough time to sacrifice hundreds or thousands of ducks and countless ingredients, it wouldn't have been impossible, but I really sympathized with those ducks and didn't want to waste them. ”
Zhou Dong shook his head, there are also requirements for the back kitchen, that is, you have to taste the same food in reality, and only after you have experience can you conform to the logic of the system and get the opportunity to practice.
Otherwise, he has to rely on his basic cooking skills, practice over and over again in reality, find his experience, and then use the system to open and hang.
"So the best way is to find the chef who claims to restore this dish with the highest level in Huaxia, if he can restore it to more than fifty percent, and I have eaten it once, I will have a certain degree of confidence in the perfect restoration of this 'ladder duck palm'!"
As soon as Zhou Dong's voice fell, he heard someone laughing behind him: "Hehe, Zhou boy, are you serious?"
My old man knows such a chef, although the 'ladder duck palm' he restores is no more than fifty percent, but it is still barely able to eat. ”
Zhou Dong looked back and saw that Cai Chongjiu, Dong and Yi were all here, and they felt that they were more interested in this 'ladder duck palm' than he and Huai Liangren.
"Old Cai, are you serious, who is this person, do I know him?" asked Huai Liangren.
"Of course, he is a famous figure in Huaxia Qinxing, he is the Grandmaster of Lu Cai, Wang Haibin!"
