Chapter 346: I'm going to make a whole pig banquet at the spring banquet!
"But...... Did I mention that we were going to make these dishes at the Spring Feast? Ye said with a smile.
His words made everyone at the table involuntarily stunned at the same time, if you want to make pork dishes for the Spring Banquet, you naturally have to choose the best pork dishes, these pork dishes in Manhanlou are all superb, and if you want to participate in the Spring Banquet, you should naturally make these dishes, but listening to Ye Chui say this, does he have other types of pork dishes?
Is it possible that the pork dishes in the Manchu and Han banquets are not the most delicious pork dishes?
"Boss, do you have any other dishes?" Qin Yueyue was picking up a piece of fried pork ribs with chopsticks, and when she heard Ye Chui's words, she couldn't help but put down the ribs in the chopsticks and looked at Ye Chui.
"The Chinese food culture is broad and profound, although the Manchu and Han banquet is the highest level of Chinese cuisine, but it does not completely include all the delicious dishes, and some folk delicacies are not included in the Manchu and Han banquets because they have appeared for a short time, or for other reasons." Ye Chui explained with a smile, "Besides, it has been half a month since the opening of our Manhan Building, and the menu is definitely not confidential, and some well-intentioned people will definitely guess that we will participate in the Spring Festival banquet to make pork dishes on the menu, and they will work hard in this regard, even if we make it delicious, we may lose a lot of votes." ”
Ye Chui's words were referring to Shenghuayuan.
Knowing what Ye Chui is going to cook here, then Shenghua Yuan will definitely make some targeted measures, that Jim was born in Chinatown, and he will not be able to master a lot of similar methods of these pork dishes in Manhan Mansion - for this eight-star Chinese chef, Ye Chui never paid attention to it, but he would never underestimate the other party.
The dining table is like a battlefield.
Especially this kind of banquet involving cooking competition, we should take more precautions in this regard, which is also the truth that Ye Chui often said to Tian Xiaodu and others.
Dong Youyou was not at all elegant and gnawed on an elbow, and at this time he had stopped, but he was embarrassed to put down half of the elbow, so he held it in his hand. She asked, "It turns out that Ye Chui thinks so much, so what are you going to cook at the spring banquet?" ”
"I've been thinking about this all afternoon." A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Chui's mouth, "At the spring banquet, we have to do ...... Whole Pig Feast. ”
"All Pig Feast?" Everyone at the table was attracted by this name, and Dong Youyou couldn't wait to ask, "What is the whole pig banquet?" ”
"As the name suggests, it is a dish made from a whole pig, pig's head, pig's knuckle, pig's trotters. Pork belly, pork loin, etc., every part of a whole pig is made into a dish and served to the table, which is a veritable pork feast. Ye Trai said with a smile.
He wanted to do this because he thought of the village banquet in his previous life.
The village banquet is a banquet where the whole village eats together, and during the period when Ye Chui was seeking cooking skills, he met a village banquet chef, and his village banquet was famous far and wide. The method is to cook a whole pig, and each part is made into a dish, which is more flavorful than delicious, which is also the essence of Chinese food culture. Even in some areas, the custom of slaughtering a whole pig for cooking and feasting on New Year's holidays is still maintained, implying reunion.
The most important thing is that such a cooking method is definitely unexpected. Even if someone steals it, they can't copy it - and even if they do, they can't make a flavor.
Ye Chui's words made everyone at the table full of shock, and Tian Xiaodu asked, "Master, are you too risky like this?" Many parts of pork...... Shouldn't it be suitable for cooking? For example, pork belly. Can this thing be eaten? How do you make it delicious? ”
"Of course, pork belly can be eaten, and it is also very delicious, it is also a delicious place in pork, but the lack of cooking methods is not taken seriously, as early as in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" has been recorded, that it 'warms the stomach, removes cold and dampness and regurgitates the stomach, swells and cold accumulation, yin poison' related dishes are more." Ye Trai explained with a smile.
Although the world's meat food is undergoing a full recovery, many delicious foods have not been served on the table due to the lack of recipes, such as pork belly, lamb tripe, tripe, etc., which are often considered unusable and discarded, and are regarded as not being on the table.
Of course, there are also dishes made with these ingredients in the Manchu and Han banquets, but Ye Chui took this factor into account when formulating the menu of the Manchu Han Building, so he did not choose them.
In fact, even if Ye Trai wanted to cook this kind of food, there was no supply of ingredients - things like pork belly from the slaughterhouse were thrown away directly, and if Ye Trai directly contacted the slaughterhouse to buy pork belly, maybe it would cause some trouble and affect the business of Manhan Building.
Ye Chui's eyes swept over the people at the table one by one, and when he thought of something interesting, he continued with a smile: "There is a recipe for ingredients such as pork belly in the Manchu and Han banquets, but I didn't write it in the menu, for example, there is a pine flower belly in the original Manchu and Han banquets, and I am going to put this dish on the spring banquet." ”
"This dish is made with pork belly?" Lin Wei, who was sitting beside Ye Chui, hurriedly asked.
"It's not made of pork belly, but ......" Ye Chui had a little evil smile on his face, "Pig's bladder." ”
“……”
After a few seconds of silence at the table, Han Yuyan said to Ye Chui with a serious face: "Master, let's consider using the pork dishes on the current menu of the Manhan Mansion to participate in the Spring Banquet......
Ye Chui rolled his eyes: "Pork is a treasure, but now many delicious parts are not correctly recognized by people because of their bad appearance, what a pity is this?" ”
This is also the feeling of the leaf lobe.
Pork belly tripe tripe this kind of thing, since human beings began to train cattle, sheep and pigs, has been despised by people, I don't know how many years have passed before it was officially served on the table, now the meat ingredients are broken, since Ye Chui wants to revive the Chinese diet, it is naturally responsible for people to re-understand these delicious ingredients.
"Master, I know what you mean, it's just ...... I'm afraid that the gourmets who attend the Spring Banquet won't be able to accept it. Tian Xiaodu continued to persuade that these dishes felt similar to dark cuisine, not to mention whether anyone would eat them, and he was afraid that he would not be directly arrested for the crime of dark cuisine.
In the age of food, the choice of ingredients for cooking is a very serious matter.
Seeing the appearance of everyone at the table, Ye Shui sighed, thought about it and continued: "In this way, let me tell you a story about cooking pork belly, and you may have a better view after listening to it......"
Then Ye Tuo told a story about pork belly.
Pork belly is a kind of ingredient that is not valued by people, since ancient times, only some poor families will eat these things, and pork belly was officially regarded as a delicious dish ingredient in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.
It is said that Qianlong's favored concubine Yi was weak, and the imperial doctor in line with the principle of "medicine is not as good as food", he wrapped the pork belly in the chicken and boiled it together, and made a dish, but this dish was surprisingly delicious, Qianlong even praised this dish as "Phoenix Reincarnation", and this dish has another widely spread name called pork belly chicken.
Pork belly chicken is not a Manchu and Han dish for the whole meal, but it is still spread and has become a famous dish.
This dish also made pork belly very popular.
"Pork belly chicken? This name is interesting, and it is also a dish ordered by Qianlong, and this dish does have some origins. After listening to Ye Chui's story, Tian Xiaodu nodded, "Then Master, if you want to make pork belly, are you going to make this pork belly chicken?" ”
"Of course not, I'm going to make a whole pig feast, so naturally I have to use all pork, and the dishes I prepare are different." Ye Chui shook his head, "I told this story just to tell you that the pork belly is not as unbearable as you imagined, and it is also very delicious if it is cooked properly, and I don't think that most people in the entire Huaxia would have thought that we would cook such a thing as pork belly, which is surprisingly successful, and it can impress the gourmets participating in the banquet, right?" ”
Ye Chui's words are indeed very reasonable, but everyone is still a little unacceptable......
"I always feel that this kind of thing is made, and many people don't have an appetite to eat it just by hearing the name." Han Yuyan sighed with emotion, "Anyway, I don't want to eat these." ”
Ye Chui glared at his two apprentices, and said with a smile when he thought of something: "Heavy rain, do you remember not long ago when you were cooking at Xiaoyu's home, once you were weak and not feeling well, and then I made you red tofu soup, do you still think it's delicious?" ”
"Red tofu soup?" Han Yuyan's eyes lit up suddenly, the red tofu soup that Ye Chui said was made for her by Ye Chui who was weak after her period came once, and at that time she felt that this soup was very good, and it could replenish her vitality.
But when she asked Ye Trai what this red tofu soup was, Ye Trai always refused to tell her mysteriously......
At this time, she couldn't help but continue to ask, "Master, what is this red tofu, you should tell me now, right?" ”
"Okay, I'll tell you ...... now" Ye Chui had a wicked smile on his face again, "The full name of red tofu is pig blood tofu, which is actually a kind of tofu made after pig blood is coagulated, and red tofu soup is actually pig blood soup." ”
Han Yuyan: "......"
This sister was still quite expectant on her face, thinking that the origin of red tofu was extraordinary, but now after hearing Ye Chui say that it turned out to be pig's blood, she immediately couldn't help it, she suddenly covered her mouth, and hurriedly ran away from the dining table......
Everyone at the table looked at Ye Chui, and their eyes were speechless: There is such a tune. Do you want to play your own apprentice......
Ye Chui shrugged: "Pig blood tofu is indeed a good thing, the origin is long and cannot be traced, it was famous all over the country during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, and I plan to make a pig blood tofu soup at the spring banquet." ”
The crowd at the table was completely speechless at the moment.
Feel ...... If it goes on like this, the spring banquet will be spoiled by Ye Chui. (To be continued......)
