Food carving has a long history in China, and it has existed since the Spring and Autumn period.

There is a relevant record in "Pipe": "Carved eggs are cooked and cut", and the carved eggs here are carved on eggs and other ingredients, which is a kind of food carving. The "Recipe" written by Wei Juyuan of the Tang Dynasty has a detailed explanation of a delicacy Yulu ball, which is called carved crisp, also known as Yuhuang Queen Mother Rice: all over the egg fat rice bowl, filled with miscellaneous flavors. In addition, in the Song Dynasty Lin Hong's "Shanjia Qing Offering Fragrant Round Cup", there is "Xie Yizhai is not addicted to alcohol...... One day, the book Yu Qin, ordered the left and right to cut the incense round to make two cups, engraved with flowers, the wine given by the temperature to persuade the guests, the clear fragrance is hazy, so that people feel that the gold and jade are all Ai Xuan. ".

In addition, there is the Song Dynasty Meng Yuanlao's "Jiangjing Menghualu Qixi Festival" in "and carved into a pattern with melon, called the flower melon." In the Qing Dynasty Li Dou's "Yangzhou Painting Boat Record", "take watermelons, and carve people, flowers, insects, and fish on the skin, which is called watermelon lanterns." Records of food carving.

In short, food carving is a miracle left in China's 5,000-year-long culinary culture - of course, the wonder here is not the ridiculous part of speech on the Internet now, but the solidity with praise.

Food carving, is the Chinese chef's stunt, is the pearl of Oriental food art, of course, food carving is also because of the limitation of ingredients, it is impossible to keep improving≯ carving, need to grasp the charm through the meaning and shape, in the carving should omit the place should also be omitted, the exaggerated place should be exaggerated, but even so, let the diners at a glance see what is carved.

Like now.

Ye Trai carved out Lin Wei's family, and people could immediately recognize everyone, this is because Ye Trai grasped the charm of Lin Wei's family.

If you want to learn food carving, you often need to practice for a long time, and it is impossible to become a teacher without five or six years, and Ye Chui has gone through at least ten years of practice in this regard, and he also absorbs the essence from the clay figurine fabrication that is also a traditional Chinese craft, and Ye Chui has reached the level of an artist in terms of food carving.

His food carvings can be both physical and spiritual. In this family carnival is vividly embodied, the whole dish remains original in taste, but the artistic conception conveyed is undoubtedly very touching, although Lafayette sometimes seems to be quite unreasonable, but she is extremely important to her family, and even for a simple reason to stay in the Lin family villa, and even do not let her son work too hard, these behaviors seem to be unreasonable in some aspects, but it also reflects the love of the old man for his family.

There is no doubt that this family carnival is a dish that really touches her bones. This dish also made her cry, which is the powerful appeal of this dish.

"Xiao Ye, your cooking skills are really speechless, this dish ...... It's so good, better than all the dishes I've ever tasted before. Lafayette took the towel handed over by Wu Haimei and wiped the moist corners of his eyes, and suddenly continued, "But there is one thing that is very bad. ”

"Huh? What is it? Ye Shui couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhang Ying was overjoyed, thinking that she didn't expect Lafayette to pick a thorn in this dish by herself, and she looked forward to it.

But as a result, Lafayette's words obviously made her happy in vain-

"This two yellow orioles are singing green willows, and there is also this family carnival. It's so beautiful and moving, how can you let me get off the chopsticks? Lafayette continued leisurely.

The dish is so good that I can't bear to eat it with chopsticks......

This is clearly a compliment to the extreme of the dish!

Ye Chui couldn't help laughing, so he said with a smile: "Although these two dishes are beautiful and magnificent, this beauty is only fleeting. You can only truly appreciate the deliciousness of this dish when you eat it in your mouth, grandma, you can eat it, and besides, if you like it. I can do it for you later. ”

"Yes, yes, Ye Chui's knife work is very good, and it only took less than half an hour to carve these." Lin Wei also said with a smug smile on the side.

And heard Lin Wei's words. But it made the others a little shocked again, because they suddenly realized that the time for Ye Chui to cook was only one hour, and the time to carve these two dishes was less than half an hour.

Even if an ordinary chef can do this level of carving, the time it takes will probably not be short......

For a day or two, the dishes will be carved and played, and the ingredients will stink by then!

Lin Zhengdao found that he couldn't have any level of expectation for Ye Chui at all, because these expectations would always turn into the same degree of surprise, and after he reacted, he smiled and said to Lafayette: "Mom, I think what Ye Chui said is very right, don't hesitate, these foods are made to satisfy the desire of the tongue, since this is the case, you can eat it happily, this is the greatest significance of these ingredients." ”

"But......" Lafayette looked at the family carnival with an indescribable joy on his expression, "who will I eat first?" ”

Everyone: "......"

In the end, after discussion, it was finally decided that everyone in the Lin family would eat their own food.

This carving is completely carved from radish, and it is also a whole carrot, but because of these carvings, whether it is Lafayette or Lin Zhengdao, who originally disliked carrots, they all feel that this taste is not annoying at all, and even enjoy eating it very much, it is estimated that from today onwards, they will no longer hate the taste of carrots......

This is also the miraculous effect of today's dishes of Ye Chui, which makes people like the ingredients that they originally hated.

Of course, this is not the ultimate goal of leaf lobe -

"Grandma, in fact, all things in heaven and earth are mutually reinforcing, nature has its own unique food chain, and human beings are vegetarian or meat-eating, all of which are firmly part of the food chain, in this case, why should we be rigid and vegetarian?" After Ye Chui watched Lafayette finish nibbling on the carrot of his statue, he said to her with a solemn expression, "You are old now, if you want to ensure health and longevity, you should supplement enough nutrients, I think it is okay for you to eat some meat in moderation." ”

Ye Chui is persuading Lafayette to give up vegetarianism!

In the past, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei also talked about Lafayette so well, but what they got was a scolding from Lafayette, and it is obvious that it is not easy to make a person who is a vegetarian because of his belief in Buddhism give up this habit. Hearing Ye Trai's words, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei both showed worried expressions at the same time, afraid that the goodwill that Ye Trai had just accumulated on Lafayette's side would suddenly disappear.

Zhang Ying finally found a way to hit the leaf lobe. She hurriedly said: "Mr. Ye, is it too much for you to say this, Lafayette chose to be a vegetarian only when he was dedicated to goodness, isn't this embarrassing for her to let her eat meat and make her give up her beliefs?" ”

"Believing in Buddhism for goodness, but it does not have to be done through vegetarianism, in my opinion, the real goodness should be more practical actions, rather than restricting one's diet, Buddhism's vegetarian diet, just to make the mind calm. For self-cultivation, we ordinary people don't need to demand so much from ourselves, as long as we have a good heart, how can the Buddha mind such things as vegetarian meat? The important thing is a good word. Ye Chui said to Lafayette seriously, "In my opinion, if you really have faith, you should eat meat happily, so that those meat ingredients can be useful." ”

If you experience it carefully, it is like messing around. It's as if I don't eat meat, so that meat has no meaning in existing, but these words are undoubtedly the most touching to Lafayette's mood when I say it in such a situation, making her show a thoughtful expression. It was clear that it was already a little shaken.

Not only did she not sternly refute Ye Hang, but she was thinking about whether to give up the idea of continuing to eat vegetarian!

This surprised Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei again, the magic of Ye Chui's food can make vegetarians break their vows and give up their beliefs?

Zhang Ying was even more dumbfounded, she didn't expect Ye Chui's influence on Lafayette to be so great. If this development continues, won't the goal of keeping Lafayette in Xizhou City with all his efforts be no longer realized?

"Lafayette, if you eat meat, the Buddha will blame." Zhang Ying hurriedly whispered.

Ye Chui also smiled and said to Lafayette: "Grandma, if you don't take good care of your body. Weiwei and her uncle and aunt will be distressed. ”

Is the Buddha more important to his family?

Although Lafayette believes in Buddhism, it is obvious that the weight of her family in her heart is only heavier.

Lin Wei knew Ye Chui's plan, and immediately continued: "That's right, grandma, you eat vegetarian every day, if there is a problem with your body, I will be very distressed." ”

Wu Haimei was also busy with her statement: "Yes, Mom, eating meat to supplement nutrition can make your body healthy, I think you should listen to Ye Chui's advice." ”

Lin Zhengdao also said: "Mom, I think Ye Chui's words are very reasonable. ”

"This ...... Let me think about it. "Lafayette's mind today has obviously been too impacted, Ye Chui's table dishes are gradually circulating, but in the end, a person who has believed in Buddhism for decades has been shaken.

And at this time, Ye Chui leisurely carried out the most fatal blow: "Grandma, the Chinese diet is mainly meat-based, in fact, if you can eat meat, I still have countless delicious foods to make for you, and the Manchu and Han banquets are not a problem, that is the highest level of our Chinese diet, the daily food that the Qing Dynasty's Cixi Lafayette wants to use." ”

Galeries Lafayette: "......"

This old lady is definitely completely moved by now!

"Well, I'm not in good spirits when I'm old, and I'm going to go to sleep at noon......" she stood up in her chair, trying to go back to the room and get some sleep before deciding on the matter of faith.

But Ye Chui said: "Grandma, walk a hundred steps after eating, this is the traditional Chinese way of health preservation, you should exercise for a while before going to take a nap, so that it is the most beneficial to the body." ”

"Yes, yes, Xiao Ye, you're right." Lafayette nodded busily, "Weiwei, you accompany Grandma to walk around." ”

"Okay." Lin Wei hurriedly nodded in agreement.

By now, Lafayette seems to have completely forgotten Zhang Ying's existence, and she seems to have completely forgotten the health care methods that Zhang Ying taught before!

Watching Lin Wei help Lafayette leave, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei both showed a relaxed smile on their faces, if this continues, it won't be long before Lafayette can be completely "controlled" by Ye Chui, and then Lin Zhengdao can get enough freedom to take care of his company's current business, which makes Lin Zhengdao can't help but show a touch of gratitude to Ye Chui, originally he was not very sure about whether Ye Chui could affect Lafayette, but now he understands that Ye Chui has fully met his expectations.

"Uncle and aunt, please continue to eat, there are still leftover dishes in the kitchen, and I can let Mother Wu serve them later." Ye Trai said to the two with a smile.

"Ye Chui, you also sit, now you are not an outsider, let's eat together." Wu Haimei hurriedly greeted.

Ye Chui couldn't help but smile, is this already the rhythm of the family......

Zhang Ying glanced at the dishes made by Ye Chui, she was also full of expectations for these delicacies, and now she was feeling very hungry, so she had to sit down to eat, but where could Wu Haimei let her get her wish: "Miss Zhang, you seem to be very dissatisfied with Ye Chui's food just now, pick and choose, how can this work, you are a guest and must make you satisfied, please go back to the room first, and I will ask Mama Wu to help you make some more meals after we finish eating." ”

This is a disguised way to drive people away, but Wu Haimei also said it very politely, so that people can't find fault.

"......" Zhang Ying was stunned, and indeed felt that it was inappropriate for her to continue to stay here, so she glared at Ye Chui coldly, and then went back to her room a little stupidly.

Lin Wei helped Lafayette to come back soon after a walk, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei's lunch was almost the same, the two seemed to deliberately don't want to make the electric light broken, so they left the table with a smile and gave the place to Ye Chui and Lin Wei.

At this time, Lin Wei's face was full of happiness, suddenly she thought of something, laughed in her mouth, and ran to the kitchen to take out the carrot statue carved by Ye Chui before, this is a carrot, although it is beautiful but it is impossible to store it for a long time, she shook it in front of Ye Chui, and said to Ye Chui: "This must be eaten quickly." ”

"Yes......" Ye Trai said with a smile.

"Quack."

Lin Wei bit off Ye Tuo's head in one bite, and ate it very crispy.

Ye Hang: "......"

Lin Wei is expressing, "Do I want to eat you in one bite?" ”

In the guest room on the second floor.

Zhang Ying, who was hungry, had an annoyed expression on her face, and after walking back and forth in the room a few times, she finally made up her mind, and then took out her mobile phone from her pocket and dialed a certain number.

After a while, the other side connected: "Zhang Ying, what's wrong?" ”

"Mr. Zhang, I may be about to fail...... Zhang Ying hurriedly explained. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
