Chef Chen lived to be more than eighty years old, and he also understood this, Chinese advocate a simple but not simple state of life, writing and painting like this, even cooking a dish, but also to pursue the extreme.

"The origin of the dish of boiled cabbage naturally comes from the most common folk boiled cabbage, the common people have no money at home, they can't eat fish, the most common cabbage, cooked with water, is a home-cooked dish.

But why did boiled cabbage become the highest level of Sichuan cuisine, it should be that our ancestors felt that it was too simple to eat like this, and there was no taste, so they tried their best to turn this dish into a delicacy. ”

Yang Huairen listened while walking, thinking about the expensive raw materials needed to make this boiled cabbage, combined with Chef Chen's words, he smiled helplessly, "This boiled cabbage has been turned into a delicacy, but unfortunately this delicacy is not something that ordinary people can afford, is it out of his will?" ”

Chef Chen heard something from Yang Huairen's words, and said with a smile, "Maybe this ancestor who made boiled cabbage had a good heart at first, but unfortunately, after all, boiling cabbage in water, it is indeed difficult to make it delicious and delicious."

Later, maybe he paid more attention to cooking techniques, or maybe he was challenging his limits, and he had this boiled cabbage that has been legendary for many years, and the delicious purpose was achieved, but he forgot the original intention.

The old man doesn't hide it from you, the old man has made countless Sichuan dishes in his life, but unfortunately he can't make a delicious boiled cabbage, many people persuade the old man, saying that this dish is a legend, but unfortunately the old man refuses to give up like this, so he refuses to leave in the world. ”

"Hehe, my husband is joking."

"It's not necessarily a joke, after all, the old man is already a person who has one foot in the coffin, and he doesn't care what others think of the old man, how they say the old man, the old man can't care about that much, but if you have the opportunity to see this boiled cabbage and taste it with your own mouth, then there is no regret about dying."

When Yang Huairen saw the old man say this, he didn't know how to answer, so he had to compliment, "My husband should be strong and strong, and he will naturally live a long life." ”

"Petty officials are eloquent. Who in this world doesn't want to live a long life? But who can really live a long life? If the long-cherished wish in my heart cannot be fulfilled, what if I live a long life? ”

Chef Chen asked three questions about longevity, and it seems that he has already seen through the life, aging, sickness and death in the world, maybe death is not necessarily the end, and if there is no thought about life, the soul will already be over.

An old man and a young man were just idle, and the back kitchen of Yunjin Building arrived. If you talk about the scale of the kitchen alone, Yunjinlou is really true to say that it is the first restaurant in Chengdu, even if it is taken to Tokyo City, it can be a small loss, compared to Yang Huairen's Suiyuan, it is several times larger.

The back kitchen is not one, but a large general kitchen, and then there are two small kitchens on each side, and behind the kitchen is a large house where ingredients are stored, whether it is dry or fresh, there are independent storage places.

As a chef, Yang Huairen saw such an atmospheric back kitchen, and he was also envious in his heart, thinking that he was going to cook in a kitchen of such a scale, there was a sense of eagerness to try.

It is the meal, so the kitchen is very busy, from time to time there is the sound of clanging pots and pans and the sound of the cooks stir-frying, the busy cooks and cooks are nervous, but the work in hand is done in an orderly manner, it seems that Chef Fu is doing a good job.

Chef Chen led Yang Huairen and others in, and the busy people saw the master or master come to inspect, and the work in hand did not stop, but the respectful chin was regarded as a salute.

Chef Chen first took a general look, and then said to Chef Fu behind him, "Third child, use your small kitchen, you go and prepare." ”

Chef Fu hurriedly took the first step, calling out a few of his apprentices to vacate a separate small kitchen.

Yang Huairen followed him into this small kitchen, first took a private look, and found that this small kitchen was very exquisitely decorated, the kitchen had everything needed, and it was kept quite tidy, although the kitchen utensils were not brand new, but they were polished very neatly.

Yang Huairen likes such a clean kitchen very much, but after all, he is the first time to come, and he is still a little uncomfortable with the layout of the whole kitchen, and the placement of utensils is not his habit, and he is not clear about the placement of seasonings and ingredients.

Chef Chen, who arrived later, saw Yang Huairen crossing his waist and was stunned, as if he had thought of something, knocked the wooden cane in his hand on the masonry floor a few times, and said in a command-like tone, "Boss, let everyone who has nothing to do go out and close the door." ”

Yang Huairen said in his heart, Chef Chen, this is a person he was stunned, because he was afraid that his craft would be stolen by others, so he ordered his apprentices and grandchildren to leave this small kitchen.

He said embarrassedly, "Old man, this boiled cabbage, the kid is just trying to make it, and it doesn't necessarily mean that it can really be made, and there is no guarantee that it will be the legendary taste, so it doesn't have to be like this." ”

The old man smiled, "You are generous to the little official, but the rules are the rules, and we will not steal the craftsmanship of the little official, you can rest assured."

The old man wants to stay and watch, but the old man can assure you that after the old man sees it, he will never teach the second person, and he will not do it himself. The reason why the old man wants to stay is just to fulfill one of the old man's wishes. ”

As for the other two men and two women brought by Yang Huairen, Chef Chen is inconvenient to say anything, they are the people brought by Yang Huairen, if Yang Huairen doesn't rush, then they can stay.

Tie Xiangyu understood that as a person in the rivers and lakes, she understood the truth that her martial arts were not passed on, and she thought that this rule should also exist in the kitchen world, so she consciously withdrew.

"I'll go around the yard, and when you're ready, remember to let me taste it."

Lan Ruoxin smiled at Yang Huairen, and also walked out behind Tie Xiangyu, Xiao Qi was not interested, shrugged his shoulders, and also took the opportunity to withdraw, leaving only the younger brother of Tianba swallowing and foaming, expecting Yang Huairen to make a legendary delicacy.

Yang Huairen thought that the old man valued him so much, and this approach was also full of respect for him, so he couldn't say anything, but he was not familiar with this kitchen after all, so he said, "Old man, if you two high-ranking disciples don't mind, it is better to let the two of them stay and help the kid to help, the kid doesn't know where your ingredients are." ”
