028 Inside
The real source of the recipe for the bottom of this pot is, of course, not as Li Jian said, it was provided by a wealthy friend in Kyoto who had nothing to offer.
In fact, this recipe was brought by Li Jian from his previous life, from a woman who had seen the highest cooking skills in Li Jian's previous life.
In his previous life, when Li Jian was more than 400 years old, there was a female ability with very strange abilities in the Huaxia Super Energy Realm. Has an ability called 'Super Taste.'
As the name suggests, this 'super taste' ability is that the 'taste' of the five senses is super sensitive.
According to tests at the time, the woman was even able to taste the saltiness of a hundred tons of pure water infused with a gram of refined salt. Through tasting, you can completely restore the recipe of any medicine or drink on the market at that time.
It is said that this kind of ability is used in scientific research for substance analysis, or for reverse-engineering the ingredients of other pharmaceutical companies' drugs, which is simply a big killer.
But this ability, who was almost forty years old at the time of awakening and had been a cook for more than 20 years, used this ability in cooking. It turns out that this ability is a perfect match for 'cooking'.
Then, this divorced woman who originally pushed a cart to buy dandan noodles on the streets of Bashu rose rapidly in the kitchen industry with her 'super sense of taste' and the organizational support she received after joining 'Jiuding'.
In less than two years, this woman sat on the throne of the first chef of Sichuan cuisine. In Badu, there is a top restaurant called 'Tianfu Food Palace'.
In the past two years, this woman has become the leading celebrity chef in the Chinese kitchen industry who is proficient in the major cuisines of China, and the 'Tianfu Food Palace' has also become a chain group with dozens of top restaurants in major cities in China.
In a few years, at the age of less than 50, this chef will become a master of Chinese and Western food, and will be recognized by the Chinese and foreign culinary circles as the only culinary master for hundreds of years! The only grandmaster-level gourmet! In the Chinese foodie group, she has the title of "female food god"!
And 'Tianfu Food Palace' has also become a food empire with branches in major cities around the world. Among them, there are dozens of hotels that have achieved the 'Michelin Grade III' rating.
Moreover, because the level of the 'Tianfu Food Palace' Badu store, where the female food god personally sits, is far beyond its peers. In order to maintain impartiality and positioning, the Michelin rating organization even did not hesitate to change its constitution and raise the original maximum 'level 3' rating to 'level 5'!
The 'Tianfu Food Palace' Badu Main Store, where the female food god sits, has become the only 'Michelin Five' restaurant. As for the 'Michelin Tier 4' restaurant below, there is none.
The cooking skills of the female food god can be imagined. The fame of the female god of food can be imagined.
However, as the fame of the goddess of food grew, more and more people knew about it, and more and more troubles arose.
There are powerful people who want to take advantage of the 'Tianfu Food Palace', there are rich giant crocodiles who want to merge and attack the 'Tianfu Food Palace', and there are kitchen peers who want to use dirty means to step on the top of the female food god......
All kinds of troubles, on the way to the rise of the female god of food, appeared one after another.
However, with her excellent cooking skills, as well as the protection of the organization after joining the 'Jiuding', the help of the powerful people she made friends, and the support of her counterparts in the kitchen industry in the same camp, she walked down smoothly.
It wasn't until Li Jian, the dictator of the super energy realm, knew the name of the female god of food, that the ** annoyance that the female god of food could not solve could be regarded as a real arrival.
When Li Jian called the female food god to her home with a phone call, and after eating the 'Chinese Famous Hui' carefully cooked by this chef, a full 300-dish meal, she immediately decided the life of the female food god for the rest of her life.
When the female food god was in trouble before, the power that had protected her was all invalid at this moment. The protection of 'Jiuding', the help of celebrities in politics and business, and the support of celebrities in the kitchen world were all silenced under Li Jian's fist.
From that day on, the first chef of mankind, the only culinary master for hundreds of years, and the wealthy woman who owned the entire food empire of the 'Tianfu Food Palace', became Li Jian's personal chef and became the leader of the 300 chef group in Li Jian's kitchen.
And the dozen or so recipes that Li Jian is now using to open a hot pot restaurant are from the hands of this female food god. It is part of the 116 best pot recipes in the chef's career of the female food god for more than 100 years.
Even Li Jian in the previous life was full of praise for these hot pots with recipes as the bottom of the pot, and it is understandable that these guests will ignore their images one by one and can't put down their chopsticks.
After all, this is the work of a once-in-a-millennium culinary master!
It was precisely because he had tasted the delicacy of Li Jian's hot pot before, that Gülen, who had a very developed business acumen, would make a decision as soon as possible and let Li Jian rent this deadly expensive store compared to ordinary hot pot restaurants. will dismiss Xue Zhiguo's objection in the name of 'no practice, no right to speak', ignoring Xue Qi's questioning, and the arbitrary customization is so expensive that people look at the menu of the scolding mother.
Now, Xue Zhiguo and Xue Qi, who originally had a lot of complaints about this price, have 'practiced', and the previous doubts have disappeared.
There will even be some hesitation, and from time to time I will think:
'Isn't this price a little lower!'
The two of them are not stupid, they know that just the taste of hot pot, and they don't even need any advertising, it is enough to prosper in a short period of time.
As long as one guest comes to eat, and then word of mouth is enough.
One brings two, two brings four......
Maybe the business of 'Taste Zhai' will be quiet for a few days before the fame spreads, but it won't be long before this huge hot pot restaurant will fill up, and there will even be a long queue outside.
As 'people who have come over', they all believe that once they have eaten it, they will definitely come back and eat it a second time. Although it is very expensive, although it hurts when you pay for it, when the gluttonous worm comes up, you can't help it.
***************
Gu Lan and Xue Zhiguo did not guess wrong, and the development of things was as they imagined, first suppressed and then raised. But the speed of the outbreak was much faster than they imagined.
On the night of the opening, because there was no support from relatives and friends, the door of 'Taste Zhai' was crowded. Therefore, the hot pot banquet for employees started early.
Just when a group of young people who love to play and make trouble, can talk and laugh, change their nature, lower their heads, and can't eat straight, Haizhou's most famous foodie exchange website 'Gluttonous Reviews' quietly appeared a few posts with the words 'Taste Zhai'.
The first post to appear, titled ''Taste Zhai' Magic Knife Reappears', and the subtitle is 'Xiaolou listened to the spring rain overnight, and the poignant knife has murdered your wallet'.
The landlord is a post by a veteran foodie of a website with the screen name 'Pot-bellied Woman'. Here's what this girl said in the post:
"Foodies, have you ever eaten the bottom of a 188-year-old clear soup pot and the bottom of a spicy pot of 288?
Have you seen the bottom of the seafood pot and the bottom of the mushroom pot of 488?
Have you ever heard of the bottom of the medicinal food pot of five hundred and eighty-eight, six hundred and eighty-eight, and seven hundred and eighty-eight?
The bottom of the medicinal pot of eight hundred and eighty-eight, can you imagine?
If you haven't eaten, seen, or heard of, you can't imagine it. If you haven't felt the magic knife style of 'Xiaolou listening to the spring rain all night', if you hate your wallet and want it to die immediately, it is recommended that you go to the 'Taste Zhai' on the second floor of the 'Seaview Mall' next to the Seaview Hotel in Binhai District.
It's definitely worth it!
ps: Be sure to bring more money, otherwise if you are detained there to brush the dishes, don't blame the old lady for not reminding you. ”
As soon as the post came out, the crowd was in an uproar. In addition to irrigation enthusiasts, there are countless scoldings.
In just an hour, Li Jian, the boss of 'Taste Zhai', got several well-known nicknames, including more than a dozen well-known names including 'Sun Erniang is alive', 'Black-hearted Boss', 'Poor and Crazy', and 'Slaughterhouse Owner'.
Not long after the post of 'Big-bellied Woman' was posted, another senior forum foodie, 'Iron Tooth and Bronze Tooth', made his debut. Posting-
'Taste Zhai, two people, a hot pot with fifteen Zhang Grandpa Mao'
The content in this buddy's post is more informative than that of 'pot-bellied mother-in-law'. Not only did he explain the reason for going to 'Taste Zhai' today, but there were also many photos.
There are photos of steaming hot pot, photos of mutton that is not big, and the most eye-catching thing is a menu photo.
The bottom of the pot mentioned by the 'pot-bellied woman' before is all on it. There are many prices at the bottom of the pot that have not been written by the 'pot-bellied woman' before, as well as the sky-high prices of vegetables and vegetables.
Then, the criticism of 'Taste Zhai' in the post bar climbed to a new peak.
"Your sister, this menu is the state banquet menu of the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, right?
……
"I'll go, the price of this hot pot is also weird. The cheapest ones at the bottom of the pot are almost two hundred, and the expensive ones are one thousand smaller, this boss is crazy and poor, right?
I went to another hot pot restaurant with my wife to eat, and I couldn't even eat the price of the cheapest hot pot base with food and wine.
It's too dark. ”
……
"That is, even if you don't talk about the bottom of the pot, why are these greens and yuba so expensive? And this enoki mushroom, is this price the price of enoki mushrooms or the price of truffles?"
