Naturally, it was impossible to leave the game immediately after eating, everyone moved to the recreation room together, Earl Lance and Mr. Hope were going to play two billiards, Gary Dylan and Fox went over to watch, Edmund originally wanted to go, but was stopped by Li Han, he shook his head to Yan Lin straight to the point, and said, "What do you think of my chef's skills?" Can you get into those high-grade places? ”

Everyone nodded vigorously: "Of course it's enough, it's not enough what kind of chef is enough, it's delicious and good-looking, it can't be better." ”

"Since that's the case, I'll be cheeky and straightforward, I hope you can recommend him if you have the opportunity in the future." Li Han said with a smile, "Such a delicious dish, of course, more people with enough status should taste it." ”

William was surprised and asked, "Isn't he your personal chef?" ”

Li Han shook his head and asked everyone to sit down on the sofa in front of the window: "Yan Lin's goal is to mention the status of Chinese food, and he asked me to help introduce him to you, so there is this time today." I can't afford to hire such a great chef. ”

Mr. Hope heard him from a distance on the billiards, and said, "Han, you are not a poor person now, it is no problem to hire a chef, even if it is a three-Michelin chef." ”

Li Han spread his hands: "No way, no matter how high the annual salary is, there is no ideal high, I can't extinguish other people's ideals for my own selfish desires." What's more, I am also selfish, as a Chinese, I would also like to see that one day, the status of Chinese food in the world can at least be compared with or even surpass that of French cuisine. ”

None of them spoke, not knowing whether they were shocked by their ambitions or felt they couldn't help.

Li Han smiled: "But if you really have any chance." It's best to wait for half a month, because I am willing to help introduce him to you, Yan Lin promised to be a private chef for me for a month, and only received a salary of 50,000 pounds. I'm an outsider, even if I want to help him break into high society, I can't do it, so I can only invite you to dinner. But you're different, and I'm sure Chef Hiko's will not treat you badly. ”

William thought for a moment and asked, "How many of these beautiful and delicious dishes do you make?" ”

Yan Lin replied: "The whole seat of the Manchu and Han Dynasty is one hundred and eight ways, and there is no problem at all. "For those emperors of the Huang Kingdom, the Manchu and Han banquets are all big scenes, and the dark cuisine country of Britain has enough to pass ten state banquets.

Prince William didn't know what the Manchu and Han full banquet was, Li Han, who had eaten all the major cuisines in the north and south of the river at home a few days ago, was shocked: "You can actually make a Manchu and Han full banquet?" ”

"Yes. But now many of them are protected animals. The raw material is not very convenient, and it can only be replaced with other similar meats. ”

Li Han explained to Prince William: "There are a total of one hundred and eight dishes in the Manchu and Han banquets, which are the banquets that the ancient emperors of the Huang Kingdom invited his ministers to eat when they celebrated their 60th birthday. Yan Lin. What cuisines are there? ”

Yan Lin opened his mouth and came: "There are 54 dishes each in the south and the north." There are 12 dishes each of Fujian, Cantonese, Beijing and Manchu cuisines. There are 30 dishes of Huaiyang cuisine and Shandong cuisine. ”

"There is no Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine? Did these come later? ”

"There was already one at the time, but it wasn't popular yet. It was probably also related to transportation, and at that time, the wealthy people were all in the east. Shu is difficult to walk, and like Hunan land, there are many ethnic minorities, poor and chaotic. "Although Yan Lin is a chef, his history is better than that of Li Han, who studied Chinese medicine, maybe he started with the history of food." Before I came to the UK, I traveled all over the country, visited famous chefs from all over the world, tasted each of their specialties, and gathered the strengths of everyone, so I will only cook every cuisine now, no matter what the occasion. ”

Li Han waved his hand: "They don't understand what you say, if you have time, you are welcome to come to my house for dinner every day, my family has changed the cuisine every day this month." "It's the equivalent of French, Italian, Spanish, German, Irish, Russian...... Rotate between them. Huangguo is big enough, the style of each place is different, divided into eight cuisines, of course, in fact, there are more than eight, how to have more than a dozen or twenty kinds, each place has its own specialty food, I believe you will like it. ”

Everyone said embarrassedly: "The opportunity doesn't mean that there is one, so let's give us some time to arrange." ”

Li Han said with an embarrassed face: "I was too excited just now, in order to express my gratitude, Yanlin, you go and prepare some Chinese dim sum for the guests to take back when they leave." The UK attaches great importance to afternoon tea, and also loves to eat dim sum, you make it a little sweeter, most British people love sweet. ”

Yan Lin smiled and replied and retired to the kitchen, and the rest of the people began to play cards and chat, naturally talking about things related to Chinese food. Li Han is a foodie, and when it comes to eating, he understands it very well, from the characteristics of Chinese cuisine to specific cuisines, from the selection of ingredients to the history of food.

The history of food in Huangguo has a long history, with a history of thousands of years, and there are dozens of celebrities related to food alone, and countless people have written recipes. Probably from ancient times to the present, from top to bottom, all of them are born with foodie attributes! At least that's what Li Han thinks, otherwise how could he create so many delicacies?

After such a big talk, he drank two pots of tea during the period, and it wasn't until Yan Lin came in with a few plates of dim sum that he stopped unsatisfied: "The dim sum is ready, have you almost digested it?" Come and try our Huangguo dim sum. ”

Yan Lin put the plate on the table, and the snacks were still steaming: "These are all things that need to be eaten hot, and they can be eaten cold for you to take home." He slowly introduced the various dim sum on the plate, "This is a tofu skin bun, and the bread is filled with enoki mushrooms, fungus, green vegetables, shiitake mushrooms and shrimp. The prismatic type is a yam cake filled with jujube paste, which can actually be eaten hot or cold, each with its own flavor. This small dumpling is shrimp dumplings, and this flowering is custard bun, and the fried golden on both sides is a potsticker stuffed with cabbage and mutton. This is a steamed plum dumpling, the yellow one is steamed with cucumber, and the purple one is purple potato. This color is Yuhua stone glutinous rice balls, and the filling inside is different for each one, just like eating chocolate, and each one is a surprise. This is a steamed dumpling with corn and plum blossoms, with beef filling underneath, and the five petals on top are shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, beans, carrots, and egg whites. ”

He also showed them another tray, on which were eight small plates: "The cold dim sum is a gift for everyone, including donkey rolling, poria cake, lotus root and osmanthus sugar cake, cream-fried small flour fruit, chrysanthemum cake filled with bean paste, rose steamed buns, pea yellow and peach shortbread." ”

Li Han looked at the white and transparent plum blossom-shaped dim sum curiously and asked, "What is this?" ”

"This is lotus root flour osmanthus sugar cake."

Li Han suddenly realized: "No wonder, the lotus root powder is transparent when it comes out, and the little one on it is osmanthus, right?" It's so beautiful, how can people be willing to eat it? ”

William was more interested in the cream-fried little noodles, which were all flower-shaped, no more than the size of a thumb, but lifelike. He could recognize the rose, the moon, and the camellia, so he pointed to the remaining three and asked, "What kind of flowers are these?" It's so beautifully done. ”

Yan Lin replied: "This is a peach blossom, this is a peony, and this is a peony." ”

Prince William got the answer, and looked up contentedly, only to find that the rest of the people had already moved, although there were sixteen kinds of them, but they were all small and delicate, and if the mouth was opened a little wider, it was no problem to stuff a few at the same time. Although everyone is a person of status, they can't stand their well-trained, and they all know how to eat quickly and abundantly elegantly. It was only a few words, and the dim sum went down a little half. Even his dear princess ignored him, and was stuffing a rose-shaped snack in her mouth.

"Hey, the rest is mine, guys." He shouted unwillingly.

But there is no father and son at the dinner table, let alone the relationship between friends and acquaintances, in a country with a constitutional gentleman, although the people of the royal family are very loved, but that's all, what's wrong with snatching your snacks? And thou shalt not have men cut off my head for this. Even the two male and female hosts, Li Han and Lydia, joined the competition.

Nima, why did they forget to ask Yanlin to make some snacks to eat these days. No, he had to do it every day, and he had to make enough snacks for them for a month before leaving. (To be continued......)
