Chapter Thirty-Eight: Victory
"What's wrong with Aang?"
Mei Li was still quite concerned about Liu Angxing, and immediately stepped forward to ask if something was wrong.
"It's nothing, it's just that I don't have a clue at all, and I don't know what to cook......
Liu Angxing is quite distressed, it is not difficult to say that the banquet cuisine is difficult, but it is not easy to say that it is simple, because there are too many types of dishes, An Yi has already said that he is preparing five dishes for French meals, but Liu Angxing is here, Liu Angxing has not prepared the slightest recipe for tonight.
"The ......"
Although she was a little embarrassed to say this, Mei Li still looked at Liu Angxing embarrassedly.
"Aang, my father and I ate A'an's dishes yesterday...... Well, it's delicious......"
"I know that Brother An's talent is really good, and he works hard like Shao'an before, but what I don't understand is why Brother A'an actually joined the dark cuisine world......"
Liu Angxing had a painful expression on his face.
"And my mother doesn't know where she went......"
Obviously, leaving his hometown, coupled with the departure of Fairy Bei, Liu Angxing's heart said that there was no trace of confusion, it was a lie, and now that he saw Anyi, Liu Angxing finally burst out of his inner emotions.
An Yi touched Liu Angxing's head helplessly, An Yi knew that Liu Angxing should be quite uncomfortable in his heart, but An Yi didn't know what to say, could it be difficult to tell Liu Angxing that this is your life? You're going to become the youngest chef in history, collect legendary kitchenware, and then become the representative of the light culinary world, and finally tear up the existence of the entire dark culinary world?
Let's not talk about the question of whether Liu Angxing will believe it, An Yi feels that eighty percent of outsiders will think that he is crazy, let alone others, if he really lets An Yi say this, An Yi will feel that he is crazy.
And at this time, Liu Angxing gradually calmed down, but it was obvious that Liu Angxing was also a little embarrassed about his emotional outburst just now, so at this time, his whole face was buried in his comfortable arms, and it was obvious that Liu Angxing was indeed quite shy at this time.
"Are you alright?"
An Yi patted Liu Angxing's head, revealing the look of soothing the little animal.
"Hmmm......"
Liu Angxing was a little embarrassed, but he still nodded, his eyes were red, and it was obvious that he had cried.
"Aang......"
Mei Li is also quite worried about Liu Angxing.
"It's fine."
Ji Di breathed a sigh of relief, although Liu Angxing cried, but if he vented, it would be fine.
"Brother An, although I don't know why you joined the dark culinary world and why your mother left, I will definitely become an excellent chef!"
Liu Angxing made such a declaration.
"yes, that's a tough road, and you've already figured out what you're going to do with me tonight?"
An Yi rolled his eyes, and it was very good to make up his mind, but if he hadn't decided on the dishes for the evening yet, then Liu Angxing, who he could definitely abuse, would not want to.
"Uh-uh...... While...... Of course it's ready! ”
Liu Angxing shouted, and then quickly ran away.
It's finally nighttime.
"Those abominable fellows dare to do this to me, the number one chef in France! I'm going to give them some color! ”
Bajru held a bucket of oil in his hand and a box of matches in the other.
"What are you going to do?"
An Yi put his hands on his chest and looked at Bajru in amusement.
"Arson is a felony......
"It's you!"
Although An Yi did not directly lead to the loss of Bajlu's status, An Yi had a friendly greeting with Liu Angxing, and it seemed that it was obviously a good relationship for Liu Angxing. Anger was nothing to Bajru, who now had nothing.
"You die with me!"
"Although the mouth is shouting to die, but the body is quite honest, you know, in fact, relatively speaking, you personally rush over is not as good as the one in your hand...... Should it be ignition oil? ”
The comfortable tone was quite sarcastic.
"Honestly, you might as well throw that thing over and it might hurt me a little more......"
"Damn!"
Bajru rushed towards comfort.
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in men......"
An Yi just dodged Bajru's attack by turning sideways, and then stretched out his foot and tripped under Bajru's feet, and Bajru flew out.
"I'll leave this guy to you......"
Master Ji Di came over, not to mention, the tall Ji Di and the dark environment, there is really a feeling of an underworld boss, especially Ji Di's face has an expression that can freeze to death all year round, which makes Bajru even more frightened.
"Hmm."
He nodded, then took Bajru with him and left.
After a while, the French consul Brown came to Yangquan Restaurant.
"Oh, dear Liu, I wonder what food you have prepared for me tonight?"
Brown has been thinking about the fried rice made by Liu Angxing that day for a long time, although he has some expectations for the comfortable French cuisine, but after all, he has eaten the dishes made by Liu Angxing, and has a general understanding of Liu Angxing's craftsmanship, while An Yi does not understand it at all.
"Well, I've prepared ...... this time"
As soon as Liu Angxing clenched his hands into fists, he began to introduce the dishes he had prepared.
In fact, in China, for banquets, the emphasis on a few meat and vegetables is not like Western food, which is served in a certain order, and it is generally directly served on a large table of dishes, and the emphasis is on the pomp and momentum. However, this does not mean that there is no complete set of meals for Chinese cuisine, and the Eight Big Bowls can be said to be exclusive to Chinese set meals. When competing for the Yongling Knife, the real sea bream continent made by Liu Angxing can actually be regarded as a kind of set meal, a dish, and a variety of snacks, each of which represents the characteristics of a place. It's just that the current Liu Angxing has not experienced travel, so the real sea bream continent will definitely not be able to do it, so this time Liu Angxing borrowed from the practice of the Eight Great Bowls.
But in order to compete with Anyi, it is definitely not suitable to make eight dishes, so Liu Angxing transformed the eight bowls into five dishes. As a hard dish, chicken, duck and fish meat must be indispensable, Liu Angxing chose to call Hua Chicken, also known as Fugui Chicken, Liu Angxing believes that the unique taste and taste of Hua Chicken will definitely make Brown enjoy the soup is to use tomatoes, I heard An Yi say it before, so Liu Angxing also tried. Indeed, the tomato egg drop soup has a fresh and refreshing taste, and the vegetables are fried Jiang green vegetables, which is not made by Liu Angxing for Brown, but is ready to be eaten at ease, this is the first difficulty Liu Angxing encountered in Yangquan, and it is also the beginning of Liu Angxing's Yangquan road, so needless to say, the fourth dish is shredded pork with green peppers, and the fifth dish is a cold dish and cold fish skin, which is the result of Liu Angxing's study in Guangzhou.
This table of dishes, in addition to entertaining Brown, can be said to be a summary of Liu Angxing's past, and also an answer to An Yi, he hopes that An Yi can see his progress in Guangzhou, just like a child's noun in advance always hopes to get the encouragement of parents.
Of course, these dishes are not just for Brown to eat alone, if it is really according to the amount of ordinary Chinese food, it is estimated that a chicken called Hua can make Brown eat it, Liu Angxing makes it for many people, that is to say, Liu Angxing hopes that everyone can taste their own craftsmanship.
What was in front of Brown was just some dishes in a small bowl, the amount was not large, Brown quickly finished eating, and after eating, Brown was quickly conquered by Liu Angxing's craftsmanship again.
"Liu, I have to say, although you are young, you really have nothing to say about your craftsmanship, these things you make can be said to be the best Chinese food I have ever tasted!"
"No, no, there are many better dishes in our place than I cook......"
"Aang, at this time you should say thank you for the compliment......"
At this time, An Yi was wearing a white chef's uniform and dragging a tray in his hand.
Seeing that Brown had eaten Liu Angxing's dish, An Yi chose to serve it.
Brown took a sip and rinsed his mouth, looking at Anyi, his eyes more of a curiosity than expectation.
"Please try it......"
First of all, the cold starter, accompanied by a glass of champagne, Brown was a little surprised to see caviar here, and there was even champagne.
Scooping a spoonful of caviar and enjoying the caviar popping in his mouth, then pouring on a sip of champagne and enjoying the aftertaste of the caviar made Brown wonder if he was back in a French bar.
"The second course is a snail bakon."
Then the third, fourth, fifth.
Red Wine Anyi did not choose imported red wine from abroad, but chose Chinese local grapes. Wine can actually be divided into two steps: winemaking and cellaring, and in ancient China, there was a habit of using grapes to make wine very early. Grapes were actually introduced in the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, how smart the ancients were, how could grapes not be used to make wine, the Tang Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty can be said to be the glorious period of China's wine industry, but unfortunately in the Ming and Qing dynasties, grape wine seems to have been beaten into the cold palace all of a sudden. Not to mention the period of the war of aggression against China, when there was not even enough food to eat, what kind of wine was brewed.
Five dishes, not a lot of them, and Brown ate them quickly.
"Phew, I feel like I'm back in France......"
Brown saw nostalgia for his hometown, and originally thought that the food made by Anyi was just that, but after eating, Brown realized that he was completely wrong.
On the one hand, Brown feels like he's back in France, looking out over the Alps, or sitting on the banks of the Loire and enjoying French cuisine.
On the other hand, the taste of the food made by Comfort is better than that of most French chefs that Brown has ever eaten, which is also quite surprising to Brown.
"Sir, have you ever been to France? Or are you just a Frenchman? ”
Brown looked at Anyi, he didn't believe that a Qing Dynasty man could make such an authentic and delicious French meal.
"No, I'm an authentic Chinese, but I like cooking more, so I have a certain amount of research on other cuisines......"
An Yi shook his head.
"Now, Mr. Brown, can you say who won my contest with Aang?"
"Forehead ......"
Brown wanted to say that Comfort had won, but would this seem to be biased in favor of French cuisine, would it seem unfair, and would others have doubts?
"I lost ......"
Liu Angxing can't make a little cooking, and it is naturally impossible for An Yi to make such a little, Liu Angxing also tasted the dishes made by An Yi, although the taste is not the same as the dishes he usually holds, but as I said before, something delicious is delicious, and the French cuisine made by An Yi completely conquered Liu Angxing.
"So...... I declare...... The winner of this competition...... At ease! ”
