Xie Xiongfei stood up with a heavy heart, but his expression was so heavy, as if there was a huge rain flower stone pressing on his heart, and what was even more terrifying was that this rain flower stone was still emitting heat and tormenting his heart.

As the first chef of Teochew cuisine, Xie Xiongfei is not only a master of Teochew cuisine, but also a third-class gourmet. Foodies swear by their tongues that they will be absolutely loyal to their taste buds, discarding all personal emotions and judging by the taste of their food. However, Xie Xiongfei can't do this at this moment, if he is loyal to his taste buds, then what will happen to the long-term efforts he has been working hard to preserve the tradition of Chaocai?

Xie Xiongfei didn't care about being stigmatized by the gourmand creed, but he couldn't accept that the tradition of Teochew cuisine would be ruined in his hands. More and more chaotic restaurants with no culinary characteristics and purely for profit continue to flood this city with discerning tastes. Dishes such as Sichuan, Huaiyang, Japanese, and European food culture are constantly attacking this poor seaside city.

In the face of a dazzling array of dishes, people have forgotten the joy that real Chao cuisine can bring people, and the authentic cuisine that pays attention to the original flavor is gone.

Even in the Teochew Cuisine Research Institute, which Xie Xiongfei has worked so hard to maintain, there are also some young chefs who have raised the idea of whether or not to accept foreign cultures. This practice, which is tantamount to sprinkling salt on the wound, has brought Xie Xiongfei to the brink of despair, and if foreign dishes are allowed to continue to erode the Chaoshan people's perception of Chaoshan cuisine in their memory, then in the next few decades. Will people gradually forget the pride of being a Chaoshan person?

Local cuisine is not only a representative of taste, but also a kind of local culture, a kind of culinary atmosphere, a kind of emotional rendering, a kind of resident harmony, a kind of traditional folk customs, but also a kind of resistance to color, but also a manifestation of health standards. If you lose the tradition of the local cuisine. Then the inhabitants of this place. You're going to lose your faith, right?

If a hundred years later, in the definition of Cantonese cuisine, only Cantonese cuisine and Hakka cuisine remain, and Chaozhou cuisine has been forgotten, will Xie Xiongfei want to see? Definitely not like this.

Honor for gourmets. Compared to Chaocai. It's just too insignificant. No need to struggle, no need to struggle, make up your mind right away. There is no need to hesitate, there is no need to secret, there is only one thing to do.

Xie Xiongfei took a deep breath, and finally spoke slowly, as if the boulder on his chest had moved away, although it was still so heavy.

"I declare the winner of this contest ......"

Xie Xiongfei's eyes involuntarily swept over Su Congshuang's body, and he really saw that the kid was casting a longing gaze towards him. For Su Congshuang, the Su family was on the verge of despair, and it was equally severe. However, Xie Xiongfei could only close his eyes apologetically at her.

■No, I can't do that, I can't rub salt on the wound anymore......

Xie Xiongfei told himself that after the final blink of an eye, his eyes fell on Yao Xu, who was smiling, and the winner was decided.

Yao Xu clenched his fists excitedly, his face couldn't hide his excitement, as a graduate of St. Yi Delu Cuisine Academy, he also had his own arrogance and determination.

Despair surged into her heart in an instant, and Su Congshuang's eyes seemed to conjure up what a cold turbulent change the Su family would have next, and the fragmented family would start from her inability to obtain this god-front cooking duel. The struggle of the patriarch and the complaints of the clansmen seemed to have roared extremely clearly into Su Congshuang's eardrums, all the way to the depths of her fragile heart. …

The sea god pendant emitted a pale blue light at this time, and a gentle intention came to his heart, as if he was stabilizing himself. Su Congshuang also sighed helplessly, Xie Xiongfei's helplessness, she can also understand. Everyone has their own identity and helplessness, and Xie Xiongfei, as the first chef of Chaoshan, would make such a decision, which is also a helpless thing.

There are no complaints, and I can't do it, I can only blame myself for not being as good as Yao Xu in my cooking skills, just like that, I can't complain about others. For now, the only thing that can be done is to imagine how to deal with the gossip that will appear in the Su family next. Other than that, there was no other way, even if it was to pray to Lord Seagod that Xie Xiongfei would change his mind, it would be useless.

If you lose, you lose, there is no excuse, there is no reason, and you can only blame yourself for not being as good as others.

And so it was over, over.

"Wait a minute!"

Just as Xie Xiongfei was about to announce Yao Xu's victory, a shout came from the crowd, which startled Sikong Yao.

Everyone subconsciously looked at the source of the voice, and Sikong Yao, who was included in everyone's sight, felt a little embarrassed. Because the person who drank and made Xie Xiongfei wait was Bai Xia.

Although Shui Ying also knew that Bai Xia wanted to fight for Su Congshuang again, Bai Xia stopped Xie Xiongfei at this time at an inopportune time, for fear that it would cause Xie Xiongfei's displeasure.

"Brother Bai, what are you doing here?" Shui Ying asked.

Bai Xia ignored Shui Ying, but confronted Xie Xiongfei-for-tat, and a scorching edge burst out of his eyes.

Xie Xiongfei saw Bai Xia in a wheelchair, and the anger that was a little angry also slowed down a little because of the other party's physical condition, but it did not dissipate.

Xie Xiongfei's tone was a little unhappy, and he asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Bai Xia looked at Xie Xiongfei and said, "I just want to ask Chef Xie what Cantonese cuisine is and what is trendy cuisine." ”

Xie Xiongfei frowned, he didn't expect to be reprimanded by a hairy boy today, he was naturally irritable in his heart, because he had violated his oath as a gourmet, he just responded casually: "Cantonese cuisine is one of the eight major cuisines of the Han nationality, and Chaozhou cuisine is a branch of Cantonese cuisine, what's the problem?" ”

Bai Xia nodded and said: "Of course there is a problem, Cantonese cuisine is represented by Guangzhou cuisine, which is a cuisine that started late, but it has a far-reaching influence, most of the Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong, Macao and countries around the world are mainly Cantonese cuisine, Cantonese cuisine is as famous as French cuisine around the world, and Chinese food abroad is basically Cantonese cuisine." In August 2014, Chaozhou was successfully selected as the most Chinese food city recommended by global netizens in the 2014 China City List sponsored by China Radio International Online. Then do you know what the character of Chaocai is! ”

The more Bai Xia spoke, the more angry he became, the louder he was a little frightening, Sikong Yao was closest to Bai Xia, and he could vaguely feel that Bai Xia's emotions were very high, and when he said the excitement, the wheelchair made of mahogany made some slight creaks.

Sikong Yao didn't know why Bai Xia was so excited, but it was obvious that Xie Xiongfei's behavior had angered the former French royal dessert.

If you want to talk about the character of Cantonese cuisine, Xie Xiongfei categorically doesn't know, but if you want to talk about Chaocai, how can he not know, and directly responded: "The character of Chaocai is: take it naturally!" Freedom to cook! Eat freely! Teochew cuisine has a wide variety of dishes and unique flavors. Cooking seafood is good, depressed but not greasy, meat dishes are vegetarian, vegetarian meat flavor, soup dishes are delicious, keep the original juice, a wide range of materials, exquisite knife work, pay attention to modeling, pure taste, pay attention to food, health, color, taste, fragrance, type, utensils, sauce, clear, light, fresh, tender, skillful, elegant and readily available! ”…

Xie Xiongfei was also angry, how could he not hear the contempt in Bai Xia's words.

Bai Xia nodded inexplicably and said, "Very good, then you can tell me about this four-flavor crab meat soup, where the material is not natural, where the cooking is not free, and where it is not comfortable to eat!" ”

Xie Xiongfei gritted his teeth, he couldn't deal with it, Su Congshuang's four-flavor crab meat soup didn't just cater to the character of Chaocai, using the tofu that was not used in the original place, and the ingenious free cooking method, which is both a dessert and a main dish, is extraordinary.

Chaoshan cuisine has already demonstrated its culinary characteristics in the Tang Dynasty. Han Yu, a poet who once demoted the official Chaozhou, has "Early Southern Food? Yiyuan Eighteen Laws of the People's Republic of China recorded that the Chaoshan people at that time had different foods, knew how to use seasonings for seafood, paid attention to seasoning, and knew how to "adjust salty and sour, pepper and orange". At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the commodity economy developed, the market prospered, and Chaoshan cuisine also entered its heyday. In modern times, Chaoshan immigrants overseas, especially in Southeast Asia, Chaoshan cuisine has also become popular in Southeast Asia. With the economic and cultural development of Chaoshan region, Chaoshan cuisine is constantly absorbing the cooking skills of other regions to form its own characteristics and advantages.

Teochew cuisine itself does not have any so-called tradition or non-tradition, it itself is constantly absorbing the cooking skills of other regions, and the characteristics and advantages of Teochew cuisine are originally built on the charm of multi-cultural integration.

However, it still doesn't work, it can't be done, Xie Xiongfei can't accept it. He understands what Chaozhou cuisine is, but Chaoshan people don't understand that the free and comfortable cuisine of four-flavor crab meat soup that goes beyond the scope of common sense is far from being a representative of Chaozhou cuisine, even if it caters to the character of Chaozhou cuisine, but the current culinary culture in Chaoshan cannot be accepted.

Xie Xiongfei gritted his teeth with difficulty, even if he violated the creed of gourmets, even if he knew that this four-flavor crab soup was originally a representative of Chaocai, Xie Xiongfei would not allow it to impact this Chaocai culture, which was already a fateful choice.

Xie Xiongfei closed his eyes, couldn't bear to look at Su Congshuang's pitiful eyes anymore, and announced, "Winner, Yao Xu!" (To be continued......)
