Chapter 332: The Level of the State Banquet

After listening to Lao Zhao's words, Yang Jun knew the reason.

He is not the kind of unreasonable, so naturally he will not do things that are difficult for a strong man.

According to Lao Zhao's temperament, he will never compromise.

If it weren't for his son, he wouldn't have been cooking in that place for three years.

He knew everything about that yard and what it was, but he couldn't help it, he wouldn't want to stay there for a day if it wasn't for the sake of repaying the favor.

"Master Zhao, I'm sorry, I took the liberty of it."

Yang Jun bowed to him.

This salute is not for his cooking skills, nor for his heart, but for the heavy fatherly love of a father to his son.

This salute is for the parents who think about their children all day.

"Young man, don't worry about this, if you want to blame it, blame our two for not having this fate."

Lao Zhao waved his hand, looking light-hearted.

"Yes, Master Zhao."

While the two were talking, Chef Zhao began to cook.

The first dish he made was boiling cabbage.

Yang Jun has heard of this dish for a long time, but he has never tasted it, and today he finally opened his eyes.

The boiling water in the boiling water cabbage is not really boiling water, but the chicken soup that has been carefully cooked through a number of complex processes, boiled until the soup is thick and clear, and then the most tender cabbage is selected to cook.

This dish looks ordinary, but it is fresh and delicious in the mouth.

Eight cabbage hearts were used to make this dish alone, and looking at the cabbage gangs scattered all over the place, Yang Jun felt that it was worth it.

Lao Zhao is in charge of cooking, and whenever a dish is cooked, Yang Jun brings the dish to the restaurant.

In fact, he didn't serve it to the restaurant at all, but directly put it into the space, while the food was hot, put it in the space to copy, and as long as he wanted to eat in the future, he could eat hot meals at any time.

"Master Zhao, your craftsmanship is good."

Yang Jun came back from the restaurant and gave him a thumbs up.

He tasted it just now, and the taste was indeed as delicious as the legend, and the chef of the state banquet was extraordinary, in this comparison, the cooking skills of Silly Zhu and Nan Yi were compared with Lao Zhao, one in the sky and the other in the ground.

"It's not worth mentioning, I don't know how many times I've made this dish, and I can make it with my eyes closed."

Lao Zhao said lightly.

This is followed by the next dish.

The second course is braised lion's head.

The lion's head was made in the morning, and now it is only necessary to put it in hot oil and fry it, scoop it up to control the oil, put in various ingredients and stir-fry, and finally pour the soup on it.

There are a few lettuce leaves spread under the plate, and four red lion heads are thrown up, and some fine green onions are sprinkled on top, which makes people salivate when they look at it.

The lion's head is also called Sixi Ball, and it is generally used to entertain VIPs at the main table.

"Okay!"

With Master Zhao's shout, Yang Jun hurriedly went over and took the lion's head away.

The next dish is called squirrel mandarin fish.

First of all, see the mandarin fish cut out of the flower knife, shaped like a squirrel, fried in the pan until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, thicken the thick sweet and sour soup with starch and tomato sauce and other seasonings, and then add garlic clove. Diced mushrooms, shrimp meat, etc. are fried together, the sauce is thickened with high heat, and then poured on the fried fish. ….

Every time Master Zhao makes a dish, Yang Jun always has to taste it before putting it into the space.

Next.

Chef Zhao also made Kung Pao Chicken, Wensi Tofu, Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, Dongpo Meat, White Cut Chicken, Fish-flavored Shredded Pork, Jade Shrimp, Four Treasures of Abalone Sauce, Simmered Chicken with Mushrooms, Husband and Wife Lung Slices, Pepper Sesame Chicken, Gourd Jelly, Saliva Chicken, Spicy Local Chicken, Cold Herb Crucian Carp......

As the last sauce beef balls came out of the pot, looking at Master Zhao, who was trembling with exhaustion, Yang Jun hurriedly helped him to the chair and sat down.

"Master Zhao, you are tired, drink a cup of tea and rest."

Yang Jun poured a cup of cold dishes and handed it over.

"Hey, old man, if you put it aside, let alone these twenty-four dishes, even if you cook all the one hundred and eight dishes of the state banquet, you won't feel tired."

Lao Zhao thumped his swollen legs and said.

"You're old and strong, and your cooking skills are as good as they were back then."

"No, I'm an old man, my hands and eyes can't keep up with the heat, and many dishes can't be cooked at the original level." Lao Zhao shook his head and said.

Yang Jun knew in his heart that Lao Zhao was right.

If he were ten years younger, his cooking skills would have been better played, but now his hands and feet are not good, and the speed of spoon turning and stir-frying is not as good as before, and the level of cooking is definitely not as good as when he was at his peak.

However, even so, Yang Jun felt that his cooking skills were very remarkable.

Seeing Lao Zhao pounding his legs for a while and rubbing his wrists for a while, looking like an old dragon clock, Yang Jun couldn't bear it, and couldn't see him coming out to cook at such an old age, so he said,

"Master Zhao, why don't you ...... I'll help you talk about the termination of the three-year agreement, don't worry, they will definitely give me this face."

"No, no, no, don't."

Lao Zhao took Yang Jun and patted his hand and said, "I know you have this ability, but don't do it, I, Lao Zhao, have been a cook all my life, I am like a cook, I will never cheat, I pay attention to innocence, and I can't regret what I promised others."

"Young man, thank you, you don't have to worry about me, in three months, it will be the appointed time, and then I will be able to retire completely."

"Okay, Master Zhao, I respect your choice, if you encounter something unfair in the future, you can come to me at any time."

Yang Jun didn't persuade again, he knew that people like Lao Zhao must have their own principles of life, and if they continued to persuade him, it would be an insult to his dignity.

"Okay, my old Zhao is here to thank you in advance."

When Lao Zhao heard this, his eyes were red, and he seemed to feel Yang Jun's sincerity.

Lao Zhao rested for a while, saw that it was not early, and was ready to go back.

Before leaving, Yang Jun wanted to bring him the remaining ingredients, but when he thought of Lao Zhao's temper, he finally gave up.

He went back to the house, and when he came out, he had an extra bag of tea in his hand.

"Master Zhao, I don't have anything to thank you for, you can take this good tea back and taste it."

"This ...... Then I'll take it, thank you."

Lao Zhao originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Yang Jun's sincere look, he was afraid of disappointing his heart, so he finally accepted it.

When Yang Jun saw him accept it, he felt a little comforted in his heart. ….

There was not only a pound of tea in that bag of tea, but also twenty yuan.

Although Lao Zhao was sent by the kingdom to help him cook, he had to express himself.

He didn't dare to give money in person, for fear of being rejected.

"Young man, I think you're a good person."

Lao Zhao walked a few steps and then turned around and said, "If you want to eat my cooking next time, how about I ask my son to come over and cook for you?"

"Okay, Master Zhao, then...... Then I thank you."

When Yang Jun heard this, he was immediately overwhelmed with joy.

I was worried about how to eat the chef's meal at the state banquet in the future, but I didn't expect Lao Zhao to bring it up in person.

Since Lao Zhao recommended his son to him, presumably his son's cooking skills have also been passed on by him.

"My son also works as a cook in the State Guesthouse, and when he rests, I will ask him to come and cook for you."

When Yang Jun heard this, his mouth grinned behind his ears with joy.

Lao Tzu is a hero.

If you can work as a cook in the State Guesthouse, your skills will definitely not be bad.

"Thank you, let me know in advance, so I can send a car to pick up your son."

"Okay, that's it."

After Lao Zhao finished speaking, he waved his hand and left.

Looking at Lao Zhao's slumped back, Yang Jun suddenly sighed with emotion

Thousand.

was originally the age of teasing his grandson, and in order to repay his kindness, he was still running around and tired.

However, being able to taste Lao Zhao's cooking skills, Yang Jun felt that it was still worth it today, thinking about the twenty-four dishes in the space, he couldn't help but take them out and taste them now.

In the end, he held back.

Just as he was about to turn around and go back, he saw his second uncle Yang Dong and Ma Sanpao coming back from outside.

Looking at their dusty appearance, it is estimated that they have gone shopping again.

Since the two of them came to Sijiu City, they went out for a stroll every day after eating a good meal, and did not come back until dinner.

This is the second time Yang Dong has come to Sijiu City, and compared to Ma Sanpao, he has more bragging capital.

"Junzi, I'm sorry, you see you're off work, and I haven't cooked yet." Ma Sanpao looked guilty.

After speaking, he hurriedly ran home.

"Uncle Ma, don't worry, there's still a while before you get off work."

Ma Sanpao didn't know that Yang Jun didn't go to work today, thinking that he was coming back late and delaying the time to cook.

"Ah, Junzi, what's going on?"

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Ma Sanpao saw a board full of ingredients, and there were all kinds of broth in the pot.

"Oh, Uncle Ma, that's right, I had a dinner at noon and found a cook to help make a meal."

"Look at you, what are you talking about, you invite a guest to dinner, tell your uncle in advance, I knew this was the case, I wouldn't go out to wander around."

"It's okay, Uncle Ma, it's the chef brought by the guest himself."

Yang Jun had to lie.

He was afraid that Ma Sanpao would think too much, thinking that he had opened Ma Xiangxiu and invited another cook.

Ma Sanpao didn't want to lose this errand because of his daughter's birth, otherwise, he wouldn't have been busy for her in the past few days.

"Oh, that's right."

Ma Sanpao nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

He also thought that Yang Jun was going to change the cook, which startled him.

"I'll cook right away, and you guys will rest outside."

Ma Sanpao put his apron around and started cooking.

There are still many ingredients on the board that Lao Zhao has not used up, these ingredients have been processed, and he only needs to process them.

Ma Sanpao sniffed the broth in the pot and sighed, "I said Junzi, this chef is a bit level, and it is not easy for the broth to boil to this point."

"Yes, this chef is okay."

Yang Jun simply coped with two sentences.

In fact, his heart blossomed, a wild road actually commented on the chef of the state guesthouse, and he was not afraid of the wind flashing his tongue, and other people's cooking skills need to be said.

"That's not right."

Ma Sanpao tasted the soup with a spoon, and his face changed: "This chef is definitely a master, and he will never be able to hang such a soup without thirty years of skills."

Yang Jun was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't expect that Ma Sanpao was also a master, and he could guess the skills of this cook.

I really underestimated him before, thinking that he was just a half-baked chef in the countryside, but I didn't expect to have this knowledge.

"It's okay, the cook is only in his seventies."

When Ma Sanpao heard this, he rolled his eyes and stopped talking.

You call a 70-year-old cook okay, right?

Forget it, don't feel uncomfortable yourself.
