Chapter 111: The Manchu and Han Banquets

86_86608 Infected by Fang Huai, the two of them also began to slow down, and began to really taste as a foodie, this identity change, immediately felt that these dishes were different from before, they used to be social, more chatting, and eating was more just a habit.

Zhang Haoran added a piece of grouper, and after chewing and swallowing it slowly, his eyes lit up: "Why didn't I find the food here so delicious before." ”

Sun Ying nodded in agreement: "It feels more fragrant." ”

"That's because you don't have the heart to feel, the real top masters cook with their own thoughts, add their own feelings, these dishes seem to be just to fill the stomach, but you don't know, when everyone cooks, the mood is different, and the taste is not the same."

Speaking of this, taking a sip of champagne, Fang Huai continued: "Many people will have such a feeling, no matter how good and expensive they eat outside, but they will still think of the dishes made by their mother after all, this is why, because when the old man cooks, he thinks of his children and family, which is a warm taste, so we always remember it." ”

As soon as Fang Huai's words were finished, there was a loud clapping sound at the door: "Originally, I just wanted to see if it suited the taste of the guests, after all, there are few people here who eat spicy food, but I didn't expect to meet an expert, it was good, it was really good." ”

As soon as Zhang Haoran and Sun Ying saw someone coming, they immediately got up, and Zhang Haoran said even more solemnly: "I always thought that the food here was good, but I didn't expect that it was Master Xu who was in charge." ”

Fang Huai also stood up and arched his hand at the visitor: "Hello Master Xu, the kid just talked casually, Master Xu smiled." ”

Master Xu, who had silver hair and was in good spirits at the door, walked in with a smile, nodded at Zhang Haoran and Sun Ying, and then looked at Fang Huai: "What school do you learn from?" ”

Fang Huai has always been in the body: "The family teacher has long been in hiding, and if you go back up, it belongs to the imperial kitchen of the Kangxi period." ”

Imperial Chef?

Not only was Master Xu a little surprised, but even Zhang Haoran and Sun Ying were stunned, they never thought that Fang Huai's mentorship was so big, and this was still cooking, what about the driving skills, it was definitely an amazing person.

Master Xu's eyes lit up: "Oh? That's just the feeling.,I've been studying the Manchu and Han Quanxi recently.,But I haven't been able to get three of them.,The main thing is that they're all protected animals now.,So I want to replace it with other dishes.,I don't know if the little brother can give me a lesson or two.。 ”

"This ......" Fang Huai frowned and thought for a while: "I don't dare to give advice, but I need to adjust my state, it may take a few hours." ”

"It's not a problem, the little brother will come to my room and make sure that no one disturbs, anyway, there is nothing to do in the afternoon, I will wait for you."

Fang Huai agreed, and looked at Zhang Haoran and Sun Ying: "If you have something to do, go and get busy." ”

"Master makes a move, everything has to be pushed away, I'll just watch TV here and wait." Zhang Haoran said immediately.

"I'd like to try your craft too." Sun Ying also refused to leave, even Master Xu praised the person, not to mention that this is a full banquet of the Han Dynasty, even if there are a few of them, it is not that they can be eaten by eating.

"That's right, that's okay."

Following Master Xu Rui to the resting room, Fang Huai locked the door, lay on the bed, and entered the Spirit Devouring Space.

Originally, he also wanted to exchange the scale for a few dishes of the Manchu and Han full banquets, but he didn't expect Xia Hui to hand over these, Fang Huai thought to himself, this may be his real specialty dish, his grandfather really participated in the production and invention of the Manchu and Han full banquets.

The Manchu and Han Dynasty feasts, the court feast of the Qing Dynasty. There are not only the characteristics of the palace dishes, but also the essence of the local flavor, highlighting the special flavor of the Manchu and Han Dynasty, barbecue, hot pot, shabu-shabu, grilling, frying, stir-frying, boiling, burning, etc., the Manchu and Han Dynasty are generally served at least one hundred and eight kinds of dishes (54 dishes of southern cuisine and 54 dishes of northern cuisine), eaten in three days, a wide range of materials, fine materials, all kinds of delicacies and seafoods.

Xia Hui's teaching is naturally based on real dishes, so in today's society, I am afraid that only Fang Huai can eat a complete Manchu and Han full banquet, when it comes to the last hour of practice, after Fang Huai said that rare animals cannot be used, Xia Hui did not let him use the scale, but let him choose a few dishes from them, and replaced them with general vegetarian dishes and common meat dishes.

The chef is very happy, especially the current Fang Huai, who eats and cooks, and tastes all kinds of ingredients that can't be found anywhere, that kind of pride.

When he opened the door, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and it stands to reason that at this time, Master Xu should have been going to prepare, but he handed everything over to his cook, and he pulled Fang Huai to the kitchen quickly, while Zhang Haoran and Sun Ying followed closely.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Xu Rui couldn't wait to ask, "How is it, what dishes did you choose, and what do you need?" ”

"Hericium erinaceus mushroom, abalone fin, simmered deer tendon in a casserole, bear's paw in honey, and a taste of tofu, just these four for the time being."

In addition to the sika deer that the deer tendon is used to breed sika deer, the rest are replaced by corresponding dishes, such as lion's mane mushroom is tofu, and bear's paw is the best fresh fat meat to add seasoning marinated.

In fact, Xu Rui has studied these dishes, communicated with some other top chefs, and has his own alternative dishes, but the taste is a little different from what he imagined, so he simply acted as Fang Huai's starting point this time, carefully watching the ingredients, shape, pickling, seasoning, including the matching of portions, and remembering them one by one.

When it is time to cook it, the size of the heat, what kind of stock to use, whether it needs to be frozen or not, and the utensils that are chosen are not left behind.

This scene fell into the eyes of the other chefs, their eyes widened, except for a few side dishes, the rest of the people came forward to observe, they would not underestimate Fang Huai because of his age, this was personally invited by Xu Rui, the head chef of the Peninsula Hotel, that is definitely a master of unique inheritance.

Look at the names of those dishes, and then look at the knife technique, the technique of turning the pot, if you don't look at the face, you definitely think that it is an old chef with decades of experience.

As time passed, at half past five and six, some chefs gradually left, and at this time the restaurant had already begun to come to people, and in the end, except for Xu Rui, everyone began to get busy.

Finally, at about seven o'clock, the four dishes were served one by one.

Hericium erinaceus made of tofu, snow white and tender, deer tendon is chewy, remove the original crude oil, plus special seasoning, the taste is light and fat, the taste is full of taste, the bear's paw is the upper shoulder meat of the pig, that is, plum meat, marinated with good honey and seasoning, put into the freezer box for freezing, and finally put into the cage drawer to steam, faint fragrance, fat but not greasy, eat in the mouth immediately feel melted.

The last dish of tofu is as white as jade, soft and delicate in the mouth, and the soup is delicious.

Xu Rui first tasted everything, followed by Zhang Haoran, Sun Ying, and finally all the big and small chefs, one by one, and in a blink of an eye, the four plates were empty, and even the soup was drunk.

Everyone was immersed in their own understanding, and it was not until the waiter in front of them came to urge the food that everyone woke up
