Chapter 1561: the great Tang!
Chapter 1561: the great Tang!
“Hui”, from the Chinese dictionary, meant to bring people or things that were not related together.
In terms of cooking, this was a cooking technique. The official meaning was to fry or cook the raw materials, then change the knife, put them into the pot, add auxiliary materials, seasonings, and stew the soup.
In such a way, the ingredients used were usually fish, shrimp, shredded meat and meat slices. However, Yuan Zhou used green bean sprouts this time.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou naturally cooked this dish with the broth.
The dish in front of everyone was contained in a dark brown wooden container. The White green bean sprouts were of the same thickness and length and were neatly arranged on the plate.
The dark brown plate with the crisp, tender, and white green bean sprouts, and the light golden and slightly thick soup at the bottom of the bowl, looked both refreshing and had a rich and delicious feeling.
“What’s this long and thin one?” The Prime Minister of Fiji asked curiously.
“This is called bean sprout, it’s also one of the seasonal vegetables in China.” Department head Hao said with a smile.
“He looks very strange.” Prime Minister Fiji said. They did not have it in their country, and in fact, most countries did not.
“You won’t find it strange when you eat it later.” He Zhenghong said with a smile.
“Of course. It’s made by head chef Yuan.” Prime Minister Fiji nodded in agreement.
Prime Minister Fiji was curious about the name of the dish, but the cabinet ministers and the Prince of Thailand weren ‘t. They only cared about the taste of the dish.
Hence, they picked up their chopsticks and started eating as soon as the dishes were served.
The big bosses in the business world and the big bosses in the culinary world were also in the same situation.
In fact, in addition to the big shots from abroad, the big shots in China were also seated at the same table. For example, Song Ming, the chairman of Cantonese cuisine, hang Tian, the master of Huaiyang cuisine, and Colin were also at the same table.
“Old song, what do you think of this dish?” Hang Tian pointed at the green bean sprouts in front of him with a smile.
“From the appearance to the fragrance, it’s all very good.” Song Ming said seriously.
“It’s very good. ” Colin said sternly.
“Haha, I think so too.” Hang Tian said with a smile.
“No, I’m more curious about the soup, that’s why I said it’s good.” Song Ming shook his head.
“Indeed, the taste of green bean sprouts is light. It’s just crisp, tender, and sweet. If you cook it with a stewing method, it’ll inevitably destroy the refreshing taste of the bean sprouts.” Hang Tian nodded.
“You guys think too much. You’ll know when you eat seriously.” Collin said straightforwardly, not worried that Yuan Zhou would mess up the dish.
Indeed, although the people at the table were all big shots in the cooking world, only Colin knew Yuan Zhou well.
After all, Zhou Shijie, Zhang Yan, and Lee Yanyi were not sitting at the main table. Although hang Tian and Song Ming had met Yuan Zhou in private and exchanged cooking skills with him, they had only met him once and rarely chatted with him.
He wasn’t like Collin, who had already established a tacit understanding with Yuan Zhou. From time to time, he would send Yuan Zhou his own food by express delivery to communicate with Yuan Zhou on the aspect of cooking.
After so many culinary exchanges, Collin naturally had a deeper understanding of Yuan Zhou. One of the points was that Yuan Zhou would never cook dishes that were not perfect for his customers.
This was Yuan Zhou’s principle and Collin had also deeply realized this point.
Therefore, Lin Li was the first to pick up the chopsticks and start eating.
Seeing Colin like this, the others also picked up their chopsticks and began to eat.
As the chairman of Cantonese cuisine, Song Ming was good at Cantonese snacks, but he also knew Cantonese cuisine very well.
Therefore, when Song Ming ate, he naturally tasted it according to the highest standard of Cantonese cuisine. The dark brown chopsticks picked up the White bean sprouts. The bean sprouts were covered with a thin layer of light golden thick soup. When he picked it up to his mouth, a fresh and sweet taste had already entered his nose.
As soon as the fragrance entered his nose, his brain immediately gave off a pleasant feeling, and his mouth began to salivate.
“The smell is very good.” Song Ming thought to himself, and then stuffed the bean sprout into his mouth.
As soon as the bean sprout entered his mouth, the light golden soup that was wrapped around the bean sprout immediately exploded with an extremely delicious taste as soon as it came into contact with his warm mouth.
The rich meaty aroma rushed into his mouth, instantly awakening his bland and tasteless mouth, making him feel refreshed.
“Cha Cha” taking advantage of the taste, Song Ming immediately chewed.
The crisp and tender green bean sprouts were just as he had seen. When he chewed them, the light juice in the bean sprouts immediately diluted the rich and fresh taste in his mouth, making the taste elegant and light.
As he chewed, the fresh, sweet, and refreshing taste of the green bean sprouts gradually prevailed, making the extremely delicious light golden soup become a supporting role, setting off the fresh, sweet, and refreshing taste of the green bean sprouts.
“Oh, it’s like a refreshing storm in the mouth.” Song Ming squinted his eyes and satisfiedly savored the taste in his mouth.
When the taste in his mouth faded a little, Song Ming immediately picked up another piece with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
This time, Song Ming had a new feeling. In the fresh and fresh taste, there was a faint sour taste in the layered taste.
The sourness was very light, but this little bit of sourness directly made people more appetizing and even more unable to stop.
The crisp taste spread in his mouth, and on the fourth bite, Song Ming once again tasted a little spicy.
After carefully tasting it, he found that this faint spicy taste had removed the original fishy smell of the green bean sprouts.
“The taste is rich and perfect. This extremely thick soup doesn’t ruin the freshness, crispness, and tenderness of the green bean sprouts at all. It’s really ingenious.” Song Ming sincerely praised.
“It’s just a simple bean sprout. Head chef Yuan always gives me a new understanding.” Hangtian.
“Of course, it’s like herbal tea with breakfast.” Collin said.
“After boiling our local Guangchen peel, add a little fresh mint and use cane sugar to season it. It can relieve summer heat and also stimulate the appetite. It’s really a good choice.” Song Ming didn’t forget to point out that the orange peel was from Guangzhou.
“I’m really curious about how satisfied everyone will be after tonight’s dinner. ” Looking at Yuan Zhou who was busy working earnestly, hang Tian turned his head and asked.
“I think it will be full marks.” Song Ming said.
“If it’s not a full score, then it means someone doesn’t know how to cook.” Colin snorted.
“If he really gets a perfect score, then the tone of our China personal cooking exhibition will be too high. I’m afraid that no one will be able to break it in the future.” Hang Tian said.
“It’s not a big deal. It’s the first personal cooking exhibition held by Chinese chefs. The tone is high, and it’s better to get a high score. ” Colin had a different opinion and said seriously.
“Indeed. If head chef Yuan doesn’t get a high score, I’m afraid no one will dare to host this chef’s cooking exhibition in the future.” Song Ming nodded.
“That’s true. Head chef Yuan has set a target for the young chef. That’s good, that’s good.” Hang Tian said.
Time passed quickly. The first appetizing green bean sprout dish was served at noon, followed by the West Lake Tingyun of Dongjiang cuisine as the ending.
For the desserts in the afternoon, Yuan Zhou chose the SU-style desserts as usual. This time, he chose the shredded chicken noodles and fried scallion pancakes from the eight unique snacks of Qinhuai country. The personal exhibition was also about to end.
