Chapter 187: The Tao is Different
Tang Yunfei had a warm attitude, and Fang Yu was not hypocritical, and soon he would be called a brother and sister to him.
When Fang Yu raised his question, Tang Yunfei did not hide it, and answered it very easily.
"You're asking me why you want to beat me, right?" Tang Yunfei poured Fang Yu a cup of matcha that he had ordered himself, and said with a smile: "This is actually not a secret, many people know it." ”
"You should have inquired about me, I don't want to inherit the signature of Tang Jiacai, I want to create a brand new brand of my own in Sichuan Gorge Province."
Fang Yu did spend a lot of time collecting Tang Yunfei's information before, but it was still a little strange to be said to someone's face, and he didn't know what to say, so he had to be cheeky and "hmm".
Tang Yunfei didn't care, and continued: "Although my father resolutely disagrees with my idea, he is a good father, and he did not use his father's majesty to force me not to do this, but made a bet with me. ”
"What bet?" Fang Yu asked curiously
"He said that I didn't understand the meaning of the 'Tang Family Cuisine' signboard or the meaning of a brand new brand, but he respected my idea. He said that if I could find a peer in the country who could beat me, then whatever I wanted to do, he would approve of it in the end. ”
"So you found me?"
Tang Yunfei nodded:
"Yes, that day I felt that you had a pair of hands that were more stable than I could have imagined, and I thought that your cooking skills must be not bad, so I came up with that idea."
Mikushi: "Oh... It's a pair of hands, and you really have a good heart. ”
Fang Yu compared the taste chopsticks to a "convex" in his heart, and still maintained a serious expression on his face to listen to Tang Yunfei's words.
"In the past few days, I have repeatedly watched the video of the cooking duel between you and the sixth brother, and I also listened to Chairman Du Feibai tell about your first battle in Shudu. I'm expecting a lot from you right now. ”
The more Tang Yunfei spoke, the more excited he became: "Although your cooking skills are still a certain distance from me, you seem to have some kind of special power..."
Fang Yu immediately pricked up his ears when he heard this: "Could it be that he discovered my secret?" ”
Tang Yunfei continued, "You always seem to be able to play beyond the water at critical moments and defeat strong opponents in situations where everyone can't believe it. So I think you might be able to beat me. ”
"Scared the hell out of me." Fang Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Tang Yunfei misunderstood Fang Yu's movements, and hurriedly comforted:
"You don't have to be too nervous, Dongying cuisine is broad and profound, I have studied for six years, and I can only make sashimi, and other skills are also very average. If you don't get eliminated in the first round, your odds of winning will be greatly improved. ”
Fang Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes, this person's mentality is too good. I prepared a big killer and didn't go around telling people that I was awesome, and the cow could be air every second. Your brother is good, and the comforters are all with a contempt that is difficult to look at.
Fang Yu decided to avoid this topic and stop making himself unhappy.
"I'm a little curious, why do you have to create a Dongying cuisine brand, isn't it good to inherit the Tang family's cuisine?"
"No, no, no" was beyond Fang Yu's expectations, Tang Yunfei shook his head a little excitedly:
"Tang Jiacai represents the traditional conservative concept, which is the idea that will eventually decline. Dongying cuisine is the right way for the future development of cooking, representing advanced ideas. Since I am known as a genius, I have high hopes that I must contribute to the culinary development of Sichuan Gorge Province and guide everyone on the right path. And to create a brand is just that..."
"You wait," Fang Yu waved his hand to interrupt Tang Yunfei's words.
Although Tang Yunfei was a little unhappy that Fang Yu interrupted him, he still stopped very politely:
"Fang Yu, what do you think?"
"Takami doesn't, but I have some questions." Fang Yu sat up straight and said solemnly:
"I don't agree with what you just said, 'Toei cuisine is the right way to the future of culinary development'. You should know that although Dongying cuisine has its characteristics, it can only be traced back to some cooking techniques developed from ancient Chinese cuisine. It would be an exaggeration to say that it is the right path for future development. ”
"No, it's not an exaggeration at all."
Tang Yunfei also sat down and replied seriously:
"I don't deny that Dongying cuisine originated in China, but it has continued to absorb nutrients and grow in the long process of development, and now it has become the world's No. 1 cuisine that absorbs the advantages of Eastern and Western cooking techniques."
Seeing Tang Yunfei's somewhat fanatical expression, Fang Yu was a little unhappy and asked rhetorically:
"You have blown all the Dongying cuisine into the sky, but as far as I know, there is no Dongying cuisine in the world's three major cuisines, so why do you say that Dongying cuisine is the world's number one cuisine?"
Tang Yunfei's eyes flashed with a fine light, and his face showed the solemn look of the pastor when he preached:
"I've been studying art at Toei for six years, and my understanding of Toei cuisine is actually very shallow, but I think that Toying cuisine has at least four advantages: clear, new, light and elegant."
"Qing means pure. I've been in and out of the kitchen since I was a child, and my father is a man who pays a lot of attention to detail, and the back kitchen of our soup is far cleaner than the kitchen of a typical restaurant.
But with the exception of my father, who was able to keep his cook's uniform clean all day, most of the other brothers and helpers were inevitably stained with all sorts of strange stains.
But even my father didn't do anything to avoid the fumes in the kitchen. There are many cooking techniques in our Sichuan and Shu cuisine that must be heated with oil, so the taste in the kitchen is always so dirty.
Dongying cuisine is different, the production process is very clean, even some dishes that require frying, such as tempura and the like, only have a slight amount of oil smoke, both in terms of cleanliness and health requirements, which is far more than the Chinese diet. ”
"New" means fresh. Toei cuisine requires a high level of freshness of ingredients, and even ordinary restaurants basically require that they be made and eaten on the same day. Sashimi, in particular, is a model of cooking because many of the time requirements are accurate to the minute.
This is different from Chinese cuisine, there are many dishes that do not need fresh ingredients at all, as long as there are enough ingredients, even corrupt ingredients can be made delicious, which is simply full of deception. ”
"Light, refers to light. Most of the dishes are not too hot and the flavor is not too heavy, so it is not easy to harm the body or stimulate the mind too much, which is good for the body and mind. ”
"Ya is elegant. The dishes are made with natural ingredients and rich colors, and they absorb the advantages of Western emphasis on plating, and the dishes are made with a strong sense of art, and can even be called "dishes that can be tasted with the eyes". ”
"The above four advantages are not only in line with the current international trend of natural health, but also take into account the pursuit of human beings for deliciousness and beauty (harmony), isn't it the mainstream of future culinary development, shouldn't it become the world's first cuisine?"
Fang Yu didn't expect Tang Yunfei to already have his own set of theories, and he was talking about the Tao, how could it really be like that. But with Fang Yu's understanding of Dongying cuisine and Chinese cuisine, he feels that there are too many subjective things in it, and it seems that this brother should have been brainwashed in Dongying for six years. Fang Yu felt that it was his responsibility to correct this brother's three views.
