Chapter 338 The name of the dish

Gao Deli saw that Gao Defu said how good Zhong Hao was at cooking, but Zhong Hao seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but turn his mind and seemed to understand what the reason was. www.biquge.info He felt that he was afraid that his master was now a different person, and he was afraid that it would be very taboo to talk about this cooking thing.

In Gao Deli's opinion, after all, his master is now a high school jinshi! Scholars pay attention to "gentlemen and cooks", and it is normal to have some taboos about these things like cooking.

After all, the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty, especially those who have already passed the Jinshi examination like their own master, will definitely pay more attention to their identity, and they are afraid that they will not want to talk about the ninth-rate skills of cooking.

Yes, just now, Gao Deli slapped his eyes hard to show that he was still there not looking at the situation, and he was still talking about Gao Defu!

But the honest Gao Defu didn't understand the meaning of Gao Deli's eyes at all, and still said all his words, until he finished speaking!

Gao Deli had no choice but to go back to make up for it! He laughed and scolded Gao Defu on the side: "The master is now a jinshi, so naturally he won't be like you and do these cooking things on the pot all day long." In the future, the lintel of the master will definitely be raised, and the affairs in the kitchen will naturally be handled by the maids and servants. What kind of cooking skills do you compare with the chef! What identity is the master, what is your identity! ”

Zhong Hao listened to Gao Deli's words and said with a smile: "Even if I win the Jinshi, there is nothing taboo about this cooking." In my opinion, it is a very creative and artistic thing to be able to turn some ingredients into a delicious dish by my own hands, and I am still very interested in cooking if I have free time. It's just that over the years, all kinds of things have been fettered, but it's rare to have time to cook a delicious meal by yourself. My cooking skills are indeed far inferior to those who are rich! ”

Gao Defu listened to Zhong Hao's words, and shouted to Gao Deli on the side: "I'll just say that the master is still the master!" ”

Seeing Gao Defu say this, Gao Deli couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head. In addition to being very proficient in cooking, my brother is really lacking too much in dealing with people. Even if your master says so, you can't just climb the pole like this! This may not be too eyeless, maybe my master just said it casually.

Besides, even if your master really likes the cooking, but after all, he is a jinshi, and he will definitely have some taboos about this matter, and you can't say so directly that people are still the same as before in the matter of cooking. But this is just a matter of mentioning a sentence or two, it's good if you are rich enough to understand, and if you can't understand it, there's no way. If you talk too much, I'm afraid it will make your master feel angry.

Gao Defu does not have Gao Deli's delicate and sleek thoughts, and he is still talking to Zhong Hao about this kitchen at this time!

Gao Defu asked Zhong Hao: "The apprentice's cooking skills didn't disgrace the master, right?" ”

Zhong Hao still likes to get along with this honest and simple Gao Defu, and this kind of poor and lowly friendship is often the most sincere. At that moment, Zhong Hao smiled and said to Gao Defu: "You didn't embarrass the master, but you have a big long face!" You have a rich name, and now in the Qingzhou food industry, I am afraid that it is very famous! ”

Gao Defu listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help but ask again: "What do you think the chef thinks there are still some shortcomings in the dishes I make today?" The master gives me some pointers, and I'm so good! ”

Zhong Hao smiled: "There are still shortcomings to gain!" "I'm also a master of people, I can't let others let me comment, I just praise it and pull it down! This master's shelf still needs to be maintained, and when it's time to talk about something dry, you have to talk about something dry.

When Gao Defu heard that his master really saw the shortcomings of the dishes he made, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly asked: "Master, tell me quickly, where are the shortcomings of my cooking skills?!" ”

Zhong Hao smiled and said: "The shortcomings of the dishes you make are not actually in your cooking skills, but in the name of the dish." "I'm afraid that in this cooking skill, Zhong Hao is now far inferior to Gao Defu's level, and if he wants to find something wrong, he still can't find it, so he can only pretend to be with his name.

Gao Defu listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help but say with some doubts: "The name of the dish? Is there any problem with the name of the dish? ”

Zhong Hao immediately said: "The evaluation of this dish pays attention to "color, aroma, taste, and shape", but in addition to these four items, there must also be a "name", and the evaluation of this dish is also very important. In fact, the highest level of Da Song diet is to pay attention to color, fragrance, taste, shape, and name, which is the best dish. Of course, compared to the situation where the four items of "color, aroma, taste, and shape" are attached to the culinary skill, this "name" is different, because the name of the dish is independent of the culinary skill.

In other words, a chef may have high cooking skills, but he can make dishes with "color, aroma, taste, and shape", but he is likely to be powerless about this name! This is in our Qingzhou, the importance of this "name" is not so prominent, but when you go to the big restaurant in Tokyo, you don't have such as flowers and snow turnips, delicate warblers and butterflies, crisp pearls, peach blossoms and flowing water, green dragons lying in the snow, maple leaves and safflowers...... Such wonderful dish names, those literati will never order them. Therefore, when the chef says that the shortcomings of the dishes you make, it has nothing to do with your cooking skills, but only the dishes you make. ”

Gao Defu listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed: "The apprentice is indeed as the master said, he is not afraid of studying and pondering this cooking skill at all, and he is also very keen on this innovation, but he is really powerless about this dish name!" ”

Gao Deli listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help but move in his heart, as if he thought of something, and hurriedly said: "Our brother doesn't read much, and he is also powerless about this elegant dish name." Master, you are a jinshi, the Wenqu stars in the sky are descending to earth, why don't you get up with the master?! If you give a poetic name to the dishes of "Natural Residence", it will definitely be of great help to the business of "Natural Residence".

Zhong Hao said with a smile: "You can't get up, and I can't do anything about it, master, I think it's better to let your daughter-in-law get up, they are all very good, and their poetry skills are very good, so it's right to do this!" ”

Gao Deli listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help but feel a little unconvinced, and said: "I'm afraid they don't have this ability!" ”

Zhong Hao smiled: "This is not difficult! You just make them poetic, and of course combine them with the dish. For example, this barbecue pigeon, you call it "a winged bird in heaven". This Jinhua ham and kale are accompanied by a cold pair, and you call it "red-billed green parrot". This stir-fried three threads, you call it "swallow grass like bisi". This shredded cabbage and meat is called "Qin Sang low green branch". Another example is this little white fish amaranth soup, which is called "Flying Egret in Desert Paddy Field". This shrimp scrambled egg is called "Yin Yin Xia Mu Turns Yellow Oriole". This is how the dishes of the major restaurants in Tokyo come about. Your two daughters-in-law are very inward-looking, and when they get up, I'm afraid they're better than me. I'm not very proficient in these poems. Your two daughters-in-law are very inward-looking, and there should be no problem with this poetic and snowy dish name. It's really not good, you let your daughter-in-law go to your master and mother-in-law to calculate this together. ”

Zhong Hao didn't mean to shirk it, but he was really not good at these poetic dish names. As for the names of the major restaurants in Tokyo that he casually said to inspire Gao Deli and their daughter-in-law, he heard them when he went to the big restaurants in Fanlou and Panlou in Tokyo.

Gao Deli heard that although Zhong Hao didn't think of the name of this dish, he said that if their daughter-in-law couldn't do it, they could ask their daughter-in-law to go to the master Fu Ruozhu to discuss, and he couldn't help but bow his head repeatedly. This lady is from a famous family, and she must have seen a lot of knowledge in this regard, and she must have a lot of opinions about the names of these dishes and other things, and together they should be able to solve this problem.

…………………………

At that moment, Gao Deli was very happy to greet Zhong Hao and open the banquet together.

Gao Deli raised his wine glass and toasted Zhong Hao solemnly, and said: "The apprentice hereby congratulates the master on the title of the gold list of today's department, and the first Jinshi is the first!" When Gao Defu saw Gao Deli, he toasted his master's wine, and he was also busy congratulating Zhong Hao with his eldest brother.

Xiaohuzi also said on the side: "The apprentice grandson also congratulates Shigong on the title of the gold list!" ”

Zhong Hao smiled and said modestly: "Haha, it's a fluke, it's a pure fluke!" "Raise a glass and drink with them!

After drinking this cup, Xiaohuzi asked Zhong Hao about the scenery after the Jinshi, what kind of ceremony, royal street boasting officials, Qionglin banquet, Jin Mingchi banquet, Zhong Hao inevitably boasted about the infinite scenery at that time.

A vivid description made the Gaodeli brothers and Xiaohuzi yearn for it.

After chatting enough about the scenery after the Zhongjin Shi, the Gaodeli brothers raised their glasses to congratulate Zhong Hao on his new marriage.

Zhong Hao toasted with them again.

After Gao Deli put down the wine glass, he took out a contract from his arms, and said to Zhong Hao with a smile: "The master got married, and the apprentice couldn't come to him, nor did he give a gift to express his heart." Taking advantage of today's opportunity, our brother sent the master a little heart, and hoped that the master could accept it with a smile! ”

Zhong Hao smiled: "What kind of gift is not a gift, you are too polite." ”

Gao Defu said on the side: "The master is out of sight!" Master, when you get married, even those friends who have a general friendship will also send a heart. As the apprentice of the master, if our brother doesn't show anything at all, wouldn't it be too inappropriate for a son of man?! I hope the master won't think our gift is shabby! ”

Gao Deli said with a smile: "There is a house for sale on Zhufeng Street near our house!" The owner's hometown of the house is Jiangning Mansion, and now that he is old, he wants to return to his roots and return to his hometown to enjoy his old age, but the price of this house is not expensive. The apprentice felt that the master did not have a suitable house yet, so he bought it, so he gave it to the master as a newlywed gift! With that, Gao Deli took the deed and handed it to Zhong Hao.

Zhong Hao listened to Gao Deli's words, but he didn't reach out to take it, and said with a smile: "Your gift is too valuable, the master can't ask for it." ”

Gao Defu said on the side: "This is a valuable thing, and it is not worth much at all." If there is no master for you, let alone making money, I am afraid that even this ancestral 'natural residence' has been sold now, how can we have a good life today. Our brother has such a little heart, if the master doesn't accept it, we are really embarrassed! ”

Gao Defu is really grateful to Zhong Hao, the master. I think that when his father was alive, he was idle all day long, and he didn't learn cooking much from his father. Who would have thought that his father died suddenly, and the brothers, who couldn't cook, couldn't help but be at a loss in the face of the operation of the natural house.

Those months were really the darkest time in his life, and his carefree life was suddenly enveloped by gloom. In those months, because the food he cooked was so unpalatable, even the old customers that his father had accumulated when he was alive were scared away by the dishes he made, and finally his own restaurant was unsustainable and closed.

And at that time, his own master appeared. His master not only taught him the skill of stir-frying, but also handed over the brewing technology of soju to them in the "natural home", so that their "natural home" could be brought back to life. If there was no master of his own, I am afraid that the "natural residence" would have closed down a long time ago, and their brothers have no skills, I am afraid that once the "natural residence" is closed, they will only have to eat the soil.

Yes, Gao Defu felt that his master's kindness to their brother was too great, and in his opinion, it was impossible to repay him, let alone just give him a set of mansions as wedding gifts!

Gao Deli also insisted on letting Zhong Hao take it, saying that if Zhong Hao didn't take it, they would really have no shame to face him or something.

Zhong Hao had no choice but to take over the deed in Gao Deli's hands.

According to Gao Deli, the house is a three-entry courtyard, on Zhufeng Street near their home, and next to Lihua Street, where their home is located. If Zhong Hao goes to live in the future, the two families are very close. The price is very cheap, and it is close to his home, so Gao Deli will buy it and give it to Zhong Hao as a wedding gift. Of course, how much it was, Gao Deli naturally didn't say.

In fact, Zhong Hao can't stay in Qingzhou for long, I'm afraid that this house really won't last long. It's just that I really couldn't shirk the heart of the Gao Deli brothers, so I had to accept it. Besides, although he couldn't live for long, he felt that he could let his aunt Feng and Wan'er live in the future.

Of course, Zhong Hao may not be able to say what will happen to him as an official in the future, maybe something will happen in the officialdom in the future, and he will resign and retire and return to Qingzhou. Of course, Zhong Hao naturally didn't want this to happen to him, but in the Great Song Dynasty, the ups and downs of civil officials were normal, and it was not uncommon.
