The two served as judges for three days, and the competition came to an end.

After the game, the two did not rush back, intending to stay in City C for one more day.

After all, in the past few days, most of the time has been spent serving as judges, and the giant panda has not yet been to see it.

This group of aliases Iron Beasts, is an animal that is not a cat and is a bear, not a cat, and can eat with its strength, but it has to live by selling cuteness.

For this cute creature, there are probably not many people who can resist its charm.

In the past few nights, the two have gone to visit many famous places in City C.

However, like the panda cultivation base, it is not open at night, after all, national treasures also have to sleep, and they are not open at night.

Today, the two of them got up very early, and after breakfast, they took a taxi to the panda cultivation base.

In fact, pandas can also be seen in zoos, but there are too few pandas in zoos, and there are many panda breeding bases.

If you make a special trip to see pandas, then there is no doubt that the panda cultivation base is more suitable.

Selling tickets to go in, the two walked inside the park-style base.

Soon, the two saw the black and white, two big black circles, round pandas.

Watching them play, both of them were amused from time to time, and sometimes the cute appearance made both of their hearts cute.

Don't look at the panda so cute, in fact, people are fierce beasts, whether it is the bite force, running speed or the degree of rough skin and thick meat, they are also fierce beast level.

It's a pity that this group of animals doesn't seem to care about their identity as fierce beasts, and they prefer to be cute compared to fierce.

After watching the panda for a long time, the two also came out of it.

At this time, Wei Qiaoyi received a message on her mobile phone, she looked down and said, "Uncle Shi said that he wanted to invite us to dinner, let's go over." ”

Gao Dian asked, "Now?" ”

"Hmm." Wei Qiaoyi nodded.

As Wei Qiaoyi passed, he came to the hotel where Wang Zhaohua was, and Wang Zhaohua opened a private room to receive the two.

After saying hello to each other, the two sat down, and Wang Zhaohua asked the waiter to serve the food.

The dishes in this restaurant are very exquisite, probably the dishes made in the high-end restaurants, are all so exquisite.

The three of them chatted while eating.

The topics of conversation are also some ordinary, and the atmosphere is harmonious, this time Wang Zhaohua did not have the initial target for Gao Dian.

After a while, the waiter brought another dish, which made Gao Dian a little puzzled, he hadn't seen it.

This dish is tightly wrapped with unknown leaves, and the whole is rectangular and neat.

"Chef Wang, what is this?" Gao Dian asked.

Wang Zhaohua looked at it and said: "This noodle is called yellow cake by the locals. ”

"Huang Ba?" Gao Dian was a little puzzled.

Wang Zhaohua smiled: "You can taste it." ”

When Gao Dian heard this, he picked up one and uncovered the leaves on his face, revealing the yellow cake inside.

Looking at this, Gao Dian suddenly understood why it was called Huangba.

This yellow rice is made of glutinous rice, and the color is yellow, and the color is a little darker, similar to the lighter soy sauce color.

The yellow cake that had just come out of the pot was very hot, and Gao Dian held it with chopsticks and took a bite.

Suddenly he frowned, the smell of this yellow cake ...... It's weird.

The inside is very sweet, and the sticky texture of the glutinous rice is also very good, although it is very sweet, but it is not greasy to eat.

What made Gao Dian frown was the strange smell.

He didn't know how to describe it, he hadn't tasted it before.

"How?" Wang Zhaohua asked with a smile.

Gao Dian said: "The taste is a little strange. ”

"Haha, that's the smell of leaves." Wang Zhaohua said with a smile.

Leaf?

Gao Dian looked at the leaf that he had placed on the table, pinched it close to the tip of his nose, and sure enough, he smelled the smell.

"The special thing about this yellow cake is that it is on this leaf." Wang Zhaohua said with a smile.

Gao Dian nodded, looking at the leaves carefully, but found that he didn't recognize them.

"Chef Wang, what is this leaf called?" Gao Dian asked.

Wang Zhaohua was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You will stump me, the locals call it Huangba Ye, but if you ask me what my scientific name is, I really can't say it." ”

He's just a pastry chef, not a botanist.

"Is this also the M food of City C?" Gao Dian asked.

Wang Zhaohua said: "This is not from City C, but from southern Sichuan. ”

Gao Dian nodded, indicating that he understood.

He looked down at the skullcap again, the strange smell just now made him frown a little, and after eating it, the taste would remain in his mouth.

But he's already peeled it off, so he can't stop eating it, it's too wasteful.

Fortunately, this one yellow cake is not big, and he can eat it in a few bites.

Gao Dian took another bite, but this time the feeling was different.

It seems that I have just gotten used to the taste of the leaves, and when I eat it now, I feel a different flavor and a wonderful feeling.

He continued to eat, and the more he ate, the better it felt.

It's a little weird.

"Chef Wang, this yellow cake is eating and eating, it feels strange and delicious." Gao Dian said.

Wang Zhaohua said with a smile: "Indeed, I came into contact with this kind of pastry by chance before, and it was the same as you, the first feeling was not delicious, but I felt that it was very delicious when I ate it." ”

Many people find it unpalatable, because they can't accept the taste of the leaves, just like many people don't like to eat coriander.

"This approach is a bit like zongzi." Gao Dian said.

Wang Zhaohua said with a smile: "The practical method of wrapping glutinous rice in leaves to make pastries is still very common in China, and zongzi is the most familiar to everyone." ”

Gao Dian nodded, indeed.

"Wrap glutinous rice with leaves, and the flavor of the leaves is integrated into the glutinous rice to form a special flavor, and the different leaves used make the taste different." Wang Zhaohua said.

Gao Dian listened carefully, he had never touched the pastry made with leaves, but he had eaten it, after all, there were a few people who had never eaten zongzi.

Wang Zhaohua continued: "But in the beginning, everyone was not for the different flavors on the leaves, and the origin of many foods was actually due to limited conditions. ”

Gao Dian was stunned when he heard this, and then thought deeply, he had seen the origin of some pastries.

Thinking about it, Gao Dian found that what Wang Zhaohua said was quite right.

Most of the foods that are widely spread have limited origins.

For example, Bangbang hard naan, in fact, is to facilitate the road carrying, because there is not much moisture, so the deterioration will be slower.

Another example is Wowotou, that Wowotou is used to put vegetables, sometimes on the road, there are no dishes and chopsticks, take out a Wowotou, eat it as a little pickle.

Therefore, a lot of food is forced out, and there is no way to have limited conditions.

"I kind of get it." Gao Dian said.

Wang Zhaohua turned around slightly and said: "In fact, whether it is yellow rice dumplings or zongzi, the reason why leaves are used is not because the leaves have a special flavor, but because the leaves are everywhere, which is more convenient." Of course, our ancestors may have used a variety of leaves, and finally settled on the leaves we use today. ”

These are all tried by the ancestors little by little, what leaves are the best and safest, there is no problem with eating, they are all tried.

As for the flavor, probably not much is considered.

It's just that after being passed down and improved by later generations, the taste slowly becomes delicious.

A lot of food doesn't taste great at first.

For a while, Gao Dian felt a little touched in his heart, as if he wanted to catch something, but found that he didn't catch anything.

"Chef Wang, did you make this yellow cake?" Gao Dian asked.

"I did it." Wang Zhaohua nodded.

"Can you teach me?" Gao Dian asked.

Wang Zhaohua was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed and said, "Yes, why not!" ”

"That'...... Let's go to the kitchen now? Gao Dian was eager to try.

When Wang Zhaohua heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "What are you doing in such a hurry?" It's okay, then you come with me, and I'll teach you slowly. ”

With that, the two got up and left, and Wei Qiaoyi was a little speechless.

I haven't finished eating yet, so why do I run to learn what yellow baba iss.

She didn't follow, she sat in the box and ate slowly.

Gao Dian followed Wang Zhaohua to the kitchen, and Wang Zhaohua began to demonstrate to Gao Dian.

In fact, there are not many raw materials for making yellow cake, such as leaves, glutinous rice and sugar, and the rest of the seasonings are not needed.

"Actually, making yellow cake is a bit similar to making zongzi ......"

Wang Zhaohua began to teach, one to teach seriously, and the other to learn seriously.

Wang Zhaohua found that he could learn Gao Dian just by teaching many places once.

When he does it himself, he can do it well, and after doing it twice, he is already qualified.

He was speechless in surprise.

Although yellow cake is not a difficult pastry, the progress is not so fast, right?

At this moment, he finally understood why his master would teach Gao Dian as a closed disciple, with this talent, he encountered it first, and he had to accept Gao Dian as an apprentice.

The two stayed in the kitchen for a long time, and it wasn't until after Gao Dian learned that Wang Zhaohua said, "Okay, let's go out first." ”

Gao Dian nodded, still recalling the steps he had just made.

The two chatted as they walked.

Wang Zhaohua said with a smile: "The soul of this yellow cake lies in the leaves, although you have learned it, but in other places, it is estimated that you can't do it." ”

When Gao Dian heard this, he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, you can learn it anyway, as for whether you can do it or not, it doesn't matter." ”

Wang Zhaohua smiled, and was very satisfied with Gao Dian in his heart.

Gao Dian really didn't care, he was just curious and wanted to learn more about it.

This yellow cake is also a local specialty, and without leaves, the same method cannot be made.

"I've learned over there that the size of this skullcap is not necessarily, it can be made bigger or smaller, it all depends on your own mood. They also have a ...... called a horse's foot pole," Wang Zhaohua said.

When Gao Dian heard this, he couldn't help asking: "What is the horse?" ”

"Translated as a horse's leg, it's actually a yellow bar, but it's cylindrical, so it's called a horse's foot pole." Wang Zhaohua said.

This remark is that he deliberately mentions Gaodian, as for whether he can comprehend it, it depends on himself.

When Gao Dian heard this, he pondered a little, but after thinking about it for a while, he didn't gain anything.

The two walked out of the kitchen, and Gao Dian suddenly patted his head, "It's suffering!" What about Qiaoyi? ”

Wang Zhaohua looked at it and found that Wei Qiaoyi was not there.

The two of them have been for so long, and they haven't found that there are some people missing.

"I guess it's still in the private room, let's go back quickly." Wang Zhaohua said.

Gao Dian nodded.

Pushing open the door, Wei Qiaoyi raised her head and said, "You're finally back?" ”

These words made both of them a little embarrassed, and they had just forgotten the time.

One is immersed in teaching students, and the other is immersed in learning.

Wang Zhaohua told the truth, he had never experienced such a relaxed teaching, and he didn't care about the passage of time when he sank into it for a while.

Wei Qiaoyi stood up and stretched, she had already finished eating, but the two of them never came back, so she was waiting in the box to watch the drama.

The phone was about to run out of battery, and the two came back.

At this time, the two of them could no longer eat, and the dishes had been withdrawn.

Wang Zhaohua said to Wei Qiaoyi at this time: "Xiaoyi, when will you go back?" ”

"Tomorrow." Wei Qiaoyi said.

Originally, they were supposed to go back today, because the two of them hadn't seen the panda yet, so they stayed for an extra day, and now that the panda has also seen it, the two of them are ready to go back tomorrow.

"Tomorrow? In such a hurry, it is better to stay for a few more days. Wang Zhaohua said.

"No, Uncle Shi, we have to go back to open a store, so we won't stay long, and we will come back next time." Wei Qiaoyi said.

"Open a store? The two of you together? Wang Zhaohua wondered.

"No, his shop is right next to mine." Wei Qiaoyi said.

Wang Zhaohua nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then I won't keep you." ”

The two nodded.

After eating, the two of them didn't plan to stay longer, and were ready to go shopping for a while while they still had time.

The main thing is that Wei Qiaoyi wants to go shopping, but Gao Dian doesn't care.

Wang Zhaohua sent them out, and the car called by the two also arrived, Wei Qiaoyi urged: "Gao Dian, hurry up, the car is here." ”

After speaking, Wei Qiaoyi went to the front, Gao Dian didn't move, looked at Wang Zhaohua and asked, "Chef Wang, it shouldn't be us who you want to invite at the beginning of this judge, right?" ”

Wang Zhaohua was stunned, he didn't expect Gao Dian to suddenly ask this question.

Immediately, he smiled and said, "Isn't it, is it important?" ”

Gao Dian said: "I understand, thank you Chef Wang!" Good bye! ”

After saying that, Gao Dian quickly chased after him.

Although Wang Zhaohua didn't say it explicitly, Gao Dian already knew the answer.

Some questions in my heart have finally been figured out.

From the beginning, he felt that this invitation was too ...... Inexplicable.

Although he did not announce the contact method, the invitation should not be sent directly to Wei Qiaoyi, even if he knew that the two knew each other, he could ask for his contact information and then send the invitation to him.

And the time for this invitation is also a little more urgent, as if it was a temporary decision.

What's more, when Gao Dian first came, Wang Zhaohua's attitude was wrong.

Just imagine, if Wang Zhaohua was invited voluntarily, it shouldn't be that kind of attitude, no matter how much he thinks about it in his heart, he still has to do his superficial efforts in place.

All kinds of unreasonableness made Gao Dian a little suspicious for a long time, but he was never sure.

After asking Wang Zhaohua just now, he already knew the answer.
