Chapter Ninety-Four: The Taste of This White-Cut Chicken Is Not Liu Lao's

Smooth flow, especially when it comes to the details.

Many chefs always like to omit certain steps in order to save time when they are studying, whether they have listened carefully or not, and when they are cooking in the future, in order to save time.

But Zhou You did it methodically from the beginning of selecting chickens, killing chickens, and then to the water, without omitting any steps.

White plate, pale yellow white cut chicken!

The chicken skin is shiny and shiny, neatly arranged, and even the chicken peony is there, and you can see at a glance that this is a whole chicken!

As a chef, it is the basic skill to make the guests eat clearly, and to let the guests see it clearly, that is also the basic skill!

"Hurry up and prepare the ingredients!"

Zhou You saw that everyone else was standing still, and hurriedly shouted.

Just this dish of white-cut chicken, I don't know how many servings to make, soon, a few helpers also started, just now Zhou You is proofing, and then they will also do it according to Zhou You's method.

On the other hand, Liu Zhang also retracted his gaze, Zhou You's series of actions just now, he could see it clearly, from the perspective of his first chef in Guangzhou, this plate of white-cut chicken is definitely the best, and it looks very good, even if he doesn't eat it, he also knows that the chicken skin must be smooth and delicious, the meat is firm, and the fragrance is incomparable, and even the chicken breast, which is more difficult to make, will not be firewood, but will have a crisp taste!

Of course, he prefers simple ginger and scallion oil, which can highlight the freshness of the white-cut chicken and taste the taste of the chicken itself!

"His skills in cooking Cantonese food are really good!"

As he spoke, Liu Zhang took out a chicken that had been marinated for an hour from the closed iron pot on the side!

This is a three-yellow chicken, and it is also a chicken that is more than two pounds worth two pounds, which is the chicken item in the Guangdong Province!

Canton people love to eat chicken, this is a well-known thing, the so-called no chicken is not a feast, the first show of the tour is the white cut chicken, then he must also have chicken.

Salt-baked chicken!

Also as a representative of Cantonese cuisine, it is also the favorite dish of Cantonese people, there have been people on the Internet about this, Canton people's favorite chicken dishes, whether it is white-cut chicken or baked salted chicken, and there is no conclusion in the end, but no matter what, baked salted chicken and white-cut chicken have always been a must-have dish at various banquets, and it is also a good thing on the table during the New Year's holidays!

The chicken is already marinated, with salt, pepper, ginger slices, green onion knots, garlic, cooking wine, etc., and can be marinated for an hour!

At this time, Liu Zhang took the green onion, ginger and garlic again, and then cut it with a knife.

It is best not to use an iron pot, but a casserole, brush the oil on the bottom, avoid sticking to the pan, put ginger slices, green onion knots, a little garlic on top, and then put the marinated chicken in it after heating, cover the lid, and heat it for about half an hour.

During this period, heat the oil, pour pepper oil, or put sesame oil, pour it on the chicken after heating, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and then cut it like a white chicken, and a delicious salt-baked chicken is ready!

Two chicken dishes finally kicked off the prelude to this 100-dish feast!

At this time, the outside of Yipinlou is the most lively!

The position of the first to the third floor was snatched away early, and there were even people who were mad, and they lined up here early this morning before the first product building opened.

And the alley at the door, and the small park next to it, were all filled with tables, chairs, and benches, and the paddock was pulled up with banners, and every stool was full of people.

After all......

This time it's free to eat!

A few tourists looked very annoyed.

"I'll go, I knew I was going to sit down!"

"Oh, who knew there was such a thing, I thought who would get married!"

"yes, yes, I'll just say why I didn't see the gift!"

After asking, I learned that the most important thing is that I heard that the person who cooked the dishes this time was still a famous chef in Guangzhou, Liu Zhang, this name is very unfamiliar to them, and even many Pengcheng people don't know, but as long as it is a gourmet, he must have heard the name of Liu Zhang, especially the locals of Guangzhou Province!

After a few tourists here checked their names, they were even more remorseful, after all, the photo and name of the old man Liu Zhang, as well as the introduction of his life, were there

Mo Ming Huang Huang put it on the Internet!

"I'm going, so many?"

The local TV station also came, and the host was a little girl with a ponytail, and she was still a newcomer to the radio station, where had she ever seen this kind of scene, not to mention that she was not actually a local.

"This kind of scene is indeed rare in the city, walking to the countryside, celebrating festivals, dragon and lion dances, and even eating together in the whole village!"

The eldest brother who carried the camera was an old man on the radio station and helped explain.

Xiao Yuan understood, installed the microphone, and then began to walk, found a person, introduced himself, and then began to ask.

For example, hello old man, have you eaten in Yipinlou?

For example, hello handsome guy, are you coming to dinner with your girlfriend? Ah, no, this is your brother's girlfriend, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Of course, they are not the only ones who carry the camera, in this era when everyone is a photographer, a mobile phone is enough to change their identity.

Those Internet celebrities who are small celebrities, or UP owners who visit the store, received the news yesterday and came early to occupy the position.

"It is said that the food in Yipinlou is delicious, I ate it last time, and it is indeed very good, but Yipinlou is famous because of Mr. Liu, but unfortunately I have been here a few times, but I haven't eaten it, this time I am fortunate to be in the position, I will give you fans a taste!"

The food blogger at station B is chubby, and at first glance he is the kind of person who loves to eat and can eat, so he put the camera on and chatted with other colleagues.

Time passed little by little, although it was the height of summer, and even some people were sweating profusely even if they were sitting, but absolutely no one wanted to leave, everyone knew how rare Liu Zhang's table of dishes was, not to mention this meal, I am afraid it would be Liu Zhang's last time.

And Yipinlou also sends herbal tea or ice powder to everyone from time to time to relieve the heat.

After all, there are so many people, and they are all gathered together, in case of collective heat stroke, it will be okay!

Finally......

When the gong sounded in the Yipin Building, many people who were hot and a little lost in the lake reacted instantly!

"It's coming, it's time to serve!"

"Ah, you know you know?"

"Nonsense, who doesn't know the gong of Yipinlou!"

Sure enough, I saw dozens of uniformed waiters coming out with plates in the Yipin Building, and at the same time, the sound of a loudspeaker sounded.

"White-cut chicken, salt-baked chicken!"

The two dishes went first, and on the long table, two plates were placed one by one.

It's the white-cut chicken and salt-baked chicken!

As soon as these two dishes that people in Guangzhou Province are familiar with appeared, everyone decisively moved quickly.

Delicious mouth picked up the fast seed, and quickly sandwiched a piece of white cut chicken, which is the meat of the legs, and there are oil flowers on it, just looking at the color makes people salivate, and when the fast son sandwiches the meat, you can feel a clear sense of rebound!

The chicken skin is yellow and tender, gently shaking, and the Q bomb is incomparable!

Cut off a line of blood from chicken bones!

And so it was!

He hurriedly dipped the sand ginger, and the first thing that appeared in this bite was the taste of minced ginger, which was spicy, but then, the crisp texture of the chicken skin hit, which was a bite down, and the flavor of the teeth bounced instantly!

The tip of the tongue seems to be able to clearly feel the particles of the chicken skin, firm and crispy!

And then there is the chicken under the chicken skin, which is the chicken leg part itself, and the meat is tender, but when you take a bite of it, you only feel that the chicken slides between your lips and teeth, as if it is oozing oil.

「***! I've never eaten such tender white-cut chicken!"

The eyes of the delicious mouth instantly narrowed, and the mouth chewed, only to feel that the chicken seemed to be skiing in the mouth.

The most important thing is that the umami of the chicken spreads out, and it is easy to tell that this chicken is definitely freshly cooked!

He sandwiched another piece of meat, and ate it without dipping sauce, for a long time, and then pointed at the camera and said!

"God, this chicken really doesn't have any other seasonings, not even pickled, because when you eat it empty, there is no other taste at all, only the deliciousness of the chicken itself, the original flavor!"

"Look, this bone

There was still blood in the head, and this was because the white-cut chicken was not cooked, to be precise, it was actually cooked!"

"I may not like this taste, just like some people can't eat medium-rare steak, but this grade of white-cut chicken, for those who really like it, I can't put it down, not to mention these pieces, even a whole chicken, I can eat it clean!"

In the building, at the table of Shan Yun Han Tianbao, looking at the two chickens that came up, the eyes of several old men lit up.

They are the ones who like to cut white chicken.

As an old diner of Yipinlou for decades, everyone at this table knows each other, and some people still know each other in Yipinlou.

"Old Liu's craft, hey......"

The youngest on the table, also in his sixties, saw this familiar white-cut chicken, it was one thing to be happy, but more to be sad.

They are all old and sophisticated, they have seen Old Man Liu, and the time limit has come, but although they don't know why they are suddenly better, and they look tougher, but the fool also knows that such an urgent banquet of 100 dishes is just a farewell!

"Let's do it!"

Shan Yun picked up a piece of chicken, didn't use the dipping sauce, just put it in his mouth, and closed his eyes.

The familiar smell spread in his mouth, but at one point, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his face showed a little surprise.

Of course, this is true not only of him, but also of his companions who have sandwiched white cut chicken.

"This ......"

"The smell of this white-cut chicken...... It's not like it used to be!"

"Improved?"

"Liu Lao's cooking skills have increased again?"

Han Tianbao just ate salt-baked chicken, the color is slightly yellow, the flavor is rich, the skin is smooth and the meat is smooth, the bone and meat are fragrant, and the flavor is attractive!

What a familiar taste, this is Liu Lao's craft.

Hearing Shan Yun's words, Han Tianbao was stunned for a moment, and looked at the white-cut chicken, which was beautiful in shape, with yellow skin and white flesh, and looked like Liu Lao's work!

He hurriedly picked up a piece of white-cut chicken and stuffed it into his mouth, and in an instant, he felt that the skin and flesh were Q elastic, the meat was fatty and tender, and the taste was delicious!

Delicious!

But......

This is really a little different from the taste of Liu Lao's white-cut chicken before!

"The flavor is different, but it's just as delicious!"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly Shan Yun slapped his head: "I forgot, aren't there two people cooking this time?"

One sentence gets to the point!

Everyone was stunned, yes, the announcement said that there were a total of 100 dishes, 50 dishes per person, and the name was Zhou You!

It's just that everyone's focus at the beginning was on Liuzhang, after all, the place chosen was in Yipinlou.

The taste of this white-cut chicken, those who have not eaten, or who have eaten less of Liuzhang's white-cut chicken, are afraid that they will not be able to taste it, but they will know it immediately as soon as they taste it.

It's like a restaurant you frequented by suddenly changing chefs, the same dish, different chefs must do it differently, and the customers who eat it regularly basically know it when they taste it.

"I just tasted it, salt-baked chicken is the taste of the past, although Liu Lao is older, his skills are becoming more and more perfect, and this white chopped chicken, although the taste is also delicious, but it is indeed different from before!"

"Tsk, this is really a surprise, what is the origin of this trip, is it really as everyone guessed, it is the closed disciple that Liu Lao was going to push out before leaving?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you.

Suddenly finding that Han Tianbao had been eating chicken, Shan Yun rolled his eyes and hurriedly clipped a few pieces for himself: "You leave some for me!"

"Even if it's as speculated outside, this one is called Zhou You, and the white cut chicken is already out of his own way!"

"Yes, although the taste is different, it is only a little worse than Liu Lao!"

Everyone chatted a few words and ate faster.

And the so-called almost, for many people outside, don't think so.

"This white-cut chicken is simply the best I've ever tasted!"

"Yes, I've been in Pengcheng for several years, and at first I ate white-cut chicken, it felt like it was raw, and I couldn't swallow it at all, and now I love this dish very much, but this dish is definitely the best!"

"Of course, I don't see who made it, I was fortunate enough to eat Old Man Liu's white-cut chicken in my early years, and the taste was ...... It's just amazing, I didn't expect that after six or seven years, I finally ate it again, and I feel that Liu Lao's cooking skills are getting better and better!"

Those who have never eaten it think that this dish of white-cut chicken is the best, and even those who have eaten Liulao's white-cut chicken still think that this dish is the best.

But what is often eaten in it is thought to be slightly inferior, which not only proves that thousands of people have thousands of flavors, but also has preconceived reasons.

After all, for Han Tianbao Shan Yun and them, they don't know how many years they have eaten Liu Zhang's white-cut chicken, although Zhou You also makes white-cut chicken, which is also delicious and tender, but for people who are used to it, it is naturally another challenge!

"Grandpa!"

Liu Qingyao was a little worried!

She followed her grandfather out to take a look, of course, only from a distance, but she still heard a lot of people discuss.

For example, which of the two dishes is delicious, or whether there is a difference.

Liu Zhang smiled: "It seems that Zhou You's right, he may be good at any cuisine, and ...... The taste of this white-cut chicken is really good, and if I had to choose, I would probably choose the one that travels around!"

He is old, he doesn't have a few days to live, and he doesn't want to pursue a higher level anymore, and he is relieved to see that there are successors, but it's a pity that he didn't teach it himself.

But Zhou You has such a craft at such an age, when he cut chickens before, the knife work was quite skilled, although he had seen many talented people, but like Zhou You, such a demon who defied the sky, he was really the first time to see it.

Seeing what he should see and what he wanted to see, Liu Zhang was completely relieved, and then turned around and went into the back kitchen.

After these two dishes were served, soon, the big horns sounded one after another!

Braised pigeon, roast goose, crispy roast pork, honey sauce barbecued pork!

Baked lobster in soup, steamed eastern star grouper, abalone juice buckled sea cucumber!

A a abalone, boiled geoduck, garlic bones, roasted flavor!

Snowy skin saliva chicken, stir-fried silver cod with matsutake mushrooms, plum cabbage button meat!

Nine-story tower stir-fried beef, Cantonese roast suckling pig, fragrant and smooth fish balls!

……

At first, I was worried that there would not be enough to eat, but as there were more and more plates on the table, there were also diners outside the restaurant, and there were voices of praise everywhere.

"I don't think I'll ever be able to eat anything so delicious in my life!"

"yes, how many dishes, that's too hearty!"

"Sixty-two, I've learned now, I can't eat a plate of dishes, after all, it's a hundred dishes feast, I can't say a hundred, grab a dish to eat, and I won't have a stomach for a while!"

"Damn, don't say it sooner!"

Many people encounter delicious food, and most of them will always choose to eat it, and they will stop when they have eaten it.

Not to mention that it has reached more than 60 now, even by the time it reaches 30, those who start quickly are already a little full.

So much so that the dishes continued to be served, but there was no stomach to eat at all.

"Mom, stop cooking, hurry up and come to Yipinlou!"

"Come on, come on!"

After all, there are still a lot of people around, but there is no place to sit, but fortunately, the service staff here brought a lot of disposable tableware, and many people came to order food, and then stood aside to eat.

From time to time, you can also see live photos and broadcasts.

It's like a delicious mouth!

He was still commenting at first, but when the dishes came up little by little and everyone began to rush to eat, he didn't care about giving taste reviews to the audience in the live broadcast room.

It wasn't until the eater unfastened the two belt buckles that he breathed a sigh of relief, although there was still a dish that had not been served, but the key was that he had already eaten and could only be prepared to get out of the way.

"I'll go, is it really that delicious?

"Nonsense, Yipinlou, who doesn't know from Guangzhou, especially this time it's the old man Liu Zhang who cooks the dishes!"

"Old Man Liu Zhang seems to be a special chef!"

"A special chef is a hair, you must know that the rating of the chef is set by others, and the special chefs he has taught are more than one hand, and he has been the head chef of several state banquets before!"

"Damn, I came out to travel, and I just left Guangzhou Province, so I lost a lot!"

"Eat, don't move, don't move, I'm outside, this position is left to me!"

Seeing the barrage, the delicious mouth could only sit for a while, and after a while, a middle-aged man came over, and the two said hello briefly, and sat down.

And the delicious mouth is not ready to leave, put the mobile phone next to it, and every time a dish is served, it will be evaluated from the dish and smell alone.

And the middle-aged man took a piece of crispy pig casually, and after this mouthful, the oil and water under the sebum immediately flowed out, and the familiar meat fragrance made people want to ascend to heaven!

……

Stinky mandarin fish, fruit wood roast goose emperor, steamed five-legged pig across water, Hakka stuffed tofu, eight-treasure winter melon cup, three shrimp cinnamon fish shreds!

Crispy fish maw with pepper sesame skin, fried scallops with okra and fruit, purple gold claypot with phoenix feet, roasted pork with cherry sauce, tomato dragon fish in sour soup!

……

100 dishes, a real 100 dishes!

But there are so many dishes, and they are still served on empty plates.

It was also the first time for those waiters to serve food to see this kind of battle, especially when it came out of the kitchen, and the heat that surged up made their mouths water.

But Yipinlou has strict management, so even if it is a hungry person who is seduced, he can only forcibly endure it.

They prayed that these people would be full after eating, and that they could give them a little leftover, but unfortunately, every time they came out with a new dish, there would be empty plates within their jurisdiction.

And these plates, almost all of them have been eaten cleanly, some still have some soup and water left, but some, even the soup has been eaten.

"It's so fragrant, I can't help it!"

The waiter, Xiao Li and Xiao Wang, carried a large plate together, and in it was roasted suckling pig.

The golden skin made the mouth water, and the secret sauce on it was emitted through the heat, burrowing into the two nostrils, making the mouth relish.

Xiao Wang smiled bitterly: "I'm also greedy, but don't eat secretly, when the 100-dish banquet is over, maybe there will be some left!"

The two carried the suckling pig over, and the poor pig was immediately snatched and decomposed.

The pig is so cute, why is it so spicy and delicious!

It is already the sun burning the clouds, but there are no fewer people here in Yipinlou, and even more on the contrary, because it is time to get off work, and the white-collar workers in the surrounding office buildings don't even have time to change their clothes, so they come around.

"Mom, I'm still eating!"

"Nonsense, until ten o'clock!"

"Haha, I thought it was fake, I've been waiting for the end of work!"

"Then you're so miserable, I showed the message to our boss, and the boss ran away first!"

"I'll go, it's fake!"

"No, you see, the one who hugged the pig's mouth and kissed it was our boss!"

It was a fashionable young man, especially the hair, which was quite bright, and I believe that in life it should be a person who pays more attention to details and pays attention to the quality of life, but now, he is holding a pig's mouth and gnawing on it, which shows how fragrant this banquet is.

As night fell, Yipinlou was lit up, and the alleys outside and the park were all lit up, everyone's enthusiasm was still there, and the most important thing was that those who ate at the beginning were hungry, hungry!

Among them, there are even the owners of restaurants on this street nearby, and even the chefs.

For example, Zhao Hao, he is the owner of the nearby roast meat, and when he came to eat, he met his own chef who was feasting!

The two met and looked at each other.

Shouldn't you go to the hospital for a sling shot?

You're not

Should I go to a friend's wedding?

Then they looked at each other and smiled, and continued to bury their heads in cooking!

Finally, it's time for the finale!

The horn sounds!

"Pork belly chicken soup, Buddha jumping over the wall!"

Originally, the pork belly chicken soup was usually served early at the banquet, after all, it was just a bowl of soup, but Yipinlou was different, his pork belly chicken soup was the main dish, especially Liu Zhang's pork belly chicken soup!

Those who ate a little bit listened to the pork belly chicken soup and the Buddha jumping over the wall, and their eyes lit up instantly.

Good guys, what a time to come!

In the store, Han Tianbao and Shan Yun came to life in an instant.

"It's coming, it's finally here!"

The old man couldn't eat too much, so at the beginning, Han Tianbao's grandson followed his grandfather, for fear that the old man would overeat!

And then......

He sat down on his own at this time, burping from time to time, and his face turned white.

Finally, the pork belly chicken soup was brought out, a total of forty pots!

This is operated by Zhou You and Liu Zhang together, and there are also twenty pots of Buddha jumping over the wall.

Everyone knows that this is Liu Zhang's specialty, so even if he was full before, he didn't leave, just waiting for this bite.

Han Tianbao hurriedly served himself soup, and then took a bite, and suddenly felt comfortable.

The most important thing is that this is the taste, yes!

"I'm so happy, I finally drank Liu Lao's pork belly chicken soup again!"

Shan Yun held the bowl, squinted his eyes, and smiled so that the folds on his face became denser.

"yes, I haven't had it in over two years!"

"That's right, after Liu Lao entered the hospital, he never entered the kitchen again!"

Someone answered, just talking, and his eyes moistened: "This time, I'm afraid it's really the last time!"

In a word, it makes the atmosphere heavy, yes, I haven't eaten it for three years, and I finally tasted it, and I suddenly had a feeling of happiness, they old people, there is nothing to pursue, nothing more than playing chess, fishing, walking, no one will mess with them, and no one dares to mess with them.

On the other hand, they don't really have any mood swings anymore.

It seems that the only way to eat it is to eat!

Can ...... now

"Hey, I'd rather go with Elder Liu!"

"Forget it, what are you talking about, while you can still drink and eat, more hourly!"

A few old men drank vigorously, but they were still steady.

But everyone outside, that's the real heat!

Many people in Xinguang Province, especially young people, have only heard of Liu Lao's pork belly chicken soup, but they haven't really tasted much, and now they finally have the opportunity, especially when they see those who are older, the soup has just been served with a spoon, so they quickly joined.

The thick white soup exudes the umami of chicken, and when you take a sip, you really feel a chill on your head.

Although it was a hot day, everyone was just wearing short sleeves, and even their backs were soaked because of eating, but they still drank hot soup one after another.

"Good girl, worthy of the name, worthy of the name!"

The delicious mouth finally drank Liu Lao's pork belly chicken soup, and after taking a sip, he couldn't help panting: "I'm so happy, if I live near Yipinlou, to be honest, I come to drink it every day!"

As he spoke, he realized something again, and said helplessly, "It's a pity, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink this kind of soup anymore!"

There was an old man over there who burst into tears, and choked up: "I have been drinking soup in Yipinlou since thirty years ago, and I have to drink a bowl every week, but unfortunately in the past three years, Liu Lao because of his health, the soup in Yipinlou was handed over to the apprentice Tianming, his skills are not bad, and Liu Lao is a little hot, but to say that it is enough to reach Liu Lao, it is really far behind, not to mention this pork belly chicken soup that has been branded by Liu Lao!"

"Yes, this bowl of soup, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink it again!"

Those who drank Liu Lao pork belly chicken soup for the first time suddenly turned black in the face.

"God, earth, I knew I wouldn't drink it!"

"Then you let Jean, stop drinking!"

"Fuck off, I'm just talking!"
