gourmet restaurant

Chapter 36 Dilemma
Jiang Yang frowned, it must be too late to change the dishes now.He looked at the time, it was almost eight o'clock.There are still two hours before the start of the food festival.

Temporary change of dishes...Let's not talk about the organizer's explanation, but the ingredients, it is impossible to deliver them within two hours, let alone Zhushu went to the hospital now.

Jiang Yang pressed his thumb hard on his temple, what on earth... what should I do?
Jiang Yang was still distressed, while other stalls were already busy.Only here in Jiangyang, there was no movement.

"System, is there a solution to the current situation?" Jiang Yang thought to himself.

"Host, come on!"

The corner of Jiang Yang's mouth twitched, how cute is Broken System at this time?Brother, what I want is a solution, not a word of cheer!

Unfortunately, there was no response from the system. No matter how Jiang Yang shouted, the system remained silent.

Gao Yu helped Han Jin handle the ingredients. Of course, Gao Yu was only responsible for cleaning the ingredients. As for the rest, Han Jin did it himself.

What Han Jin is going to do is a Confucian dish in Shandong cuisine - Yipin Tofu.This dish is different from Mapo Tofu. Yipin Tofu pays more attention to the taste of the tofu itself. The finished dish is light and tender, suitable for all ages.Inheriting the consistent characteristics of Shandong cuisine, this first-class tofu is also salty and fresh.

Gao Yu wanted to help, but Han Jin opened his hand.Gao Yu had no choice but to do such a job as washing vegetables.

Gao Yu couldn't stay idle, not only his body, but also his mouth. "Master, do you think the tofu from Sichuan province can taste the same?"

Han Jin replied: "This is about the same. I have done it before. There is a difference, but not big."

Gao Yu nodded and said, "I thought there would be a big difference."

Han Jin was busy at the moment and didn't have time to stretch out his hand to hit him, so he said, "You kid, don't think about things all day long."

Gao Yu curled his lips and said, "What do you mean? Master, you don't know. Because of the different geographical locations, even the same things will taste different. As an excellent Chefs, you also need to know these small differences."

Han Jin said: "You still need to teach me the principles of Nanju and Beizhi? Wash the vegetables carefully, and don't wash the vegetables." Han Jin warned,
"Tch, I see." Gao Yu replied.

The chef at the booth where Ju Yuan is located is busy. Unlike most of the stalls, this stall has a wide variety of ingredients, including eggplant and some nuts.

Regarding eggplant, it is described in "A Dream of Red Mansions". "You signed the skin of the eggplant that just came down. You only need to clean the meat, cut it into small nails, and fry it in chicken oil. Then use the chicken breast meat and mushrooms, new bamboo shoots, mushrooms, spiced rot, and dried fruits of various colors. Cut them into nails, simmer them in chicken broth, collect the sesame oil, mix it with bad oil, put it in a porcelain jar and seal it tightly, take it out when you want to eat it, and mix it with fried chicken and melon."

Of course, it is impossible to say that it is sealed tightly in a jar now. After all, the dishes that are cooked and sold now, how can they be sold after being sealed?In fact, the eggplants made by many chefs today are modified from the past.

Regarding this dish, there is an interesting statement on the Internet: this statement believes that eggplant is actually a gourmet scam.The real eggplant is actually not tasty.

We can't decide whether eggplant is delicious or not. After all, it is a lost dish. No matter how we do it, it may not be the original dish.

It's just that it doesn't matter whether the eggplant is delicious or not, whether it is as described in "A Dream of Red Mansions".The important thing is that this dish comes from "Dream of Red Mansions", that's enough.

Ju Yuan also had this idea in mind, using the delicacies in the four famous novels to gain attention.But in this way, the chef of Juyuan suffered a lot.All the effort, just for the high-level momentary fever.

He was prepared, not daring to make the slightest mistake.From receiving this task to the present, he has improved the original eggplant, and the taste is not bad.It's just that I don't know whether it will be recognized by everyone.He was also worried. If the food festival failed to achieve good results, he might not be able to bear the anger of the higher-ups.

The chef sighed, he was just a cook...why should he be responsible for all this!
Mr. Jiang, a Cantonese chef who just arrived a few days ago, is also busy.The delicacy he cooks is claypot rice!

Claypot rice has a special status. Like fried rice with soy sauce, it is also a childhood memory of a generation.

What Jiangming cooks is crucian carp claypot rice. The soup made from crucian carp is used to cook rice, and the rice contains fresh crucian carp.

Jiang Ming is very skilled in handling crucian carp. It can be seen that he should do this often.

The current chef of Chen's Restaurant is also Chen Cuyi's father.Of course what he wants to do is his own signature, Mapo Tofu!

Another equally famous restaurant, the restaurant started by the founder of Husband and wife lung.The current inheritor also has a booth at the food festival, and naturally makes husband and wife lung slices.

This is also a famous dish in Sichuan cuisine. Husband and wife lung slices are made of beef scalp, beef heart, beef tongue, tripe, and beef as the main ingredients.

The most important part of Husband and wife lung slices is actually the red oil. Of course, the production of red oil has its own formula, among which the ratio of spices, the production method, and often the differences in details lead to completely different tastes.

Naturally, it is impossible to make the red oil on the spot. The red oil for the food festival is made one day in advance, and today it is just stewed ingredients.

There are also many stalls with various delicacies.Only Jiang Yang saw fried potatoes, ice powder, glutinous rice cakes, mutton skewers, grilled squid, sixty-year-old rice noodles, grilled oysters, pot helmets, meat clips... Jiang Yang even saw eight-treasure porridge for sale.

Jiang Yang looked around in distress, everyone started to get busy, but he could only guard the broken tofu, helpless.

The tofu has not been broken, and not many are intact.Even though Jiang Yang carefully cut out the intact tofu, the portion was not much.

The only good thing is that Uncle Zhu was afraid that the tofu would be dirty on the way here, so he covered it with plastic wrap, and there was a layer of white gauze on the outside, so even if the tofu inside was broken, it was not stolen.

If the tofu is dirty, I'm afraid Jiang Yang can really go home directly without participating in any food festival.

For a long time, Jiang Yang didn't get inspiration from the colleagues around him.Can't think of how to save the situation as it is today.

Jiang Yang looked at the broken tofu, and his thoughts slowly entered the memories...

"Dad, what are you doing?" Jiang Yang, who was still in elementary school, just came home from school, and when he arrived at his restaurant, he smelled a tangy aroma.

"I don't know what your father does, anyway, your father is quite mysterious." Jiang Yang's mother said aside.

Jiang Yang nodded, looked at the store, and asked his mother, "Are there no customers today?"

Mother pampered his little head and said, "It's closed today."

Jiang Yang blinked and asked curiously, "Why?"

Mother smiled and said, "Because today is Jiang Yang's birthday! Your father said he wanted to get you a table of delicious food, so we closed."

Like a little adult, Jiang Yang put his hands behind his back and said, "It's okay, don't stop doing business for me!"

Looking at Jiang Yang's appearance, the mother was a little funny, and said, "Okay, then we will continue to do business now."

When Jiang Yang heard this, he became anxious, and quickly said: "Oh! Why are you acting like children, adults must keep their word."

Mother covered her mouth and smiled happily.Jiang Yang put down his schoolbag, ran into the kitchen, and said to his mother, "I'll go and see what delicious food Dad makes!"
