Don't pretend, I'm the God of Cooking and I'll showdown!

"Wow, this vegetarian pork belly is completely indistinguishable from the real thing!"

Lin Xu took out the vegetarian pork belly from the stewed soup. The slight folds on the top and the trembling feeling of being integrated with the tofu skin looked very similar to pork belly.

In addition, when marinating, sugar is specially put in the pot, which gives the vegetarian pork belly a ruddy color, which is even more indistinguishable from real meat.

In order to create a visual impact for everyone, Shen Jiayue went downstairs and asked Xu Xinhua for a whole brine pork belly.

Both the real and the fake pork belly are ruddy in color, wrinkled on the surface, and both are in the shape of irregular pockets. At the same time, they both exude an attractive stewed aroma.

"It doesn't make any difference at all, okay, Xu Bao, you are amazing!"

After the comparison, Shen Jiayue was full of praise for Lin Xu's craftsmanship.

Aha, even if I have no money in the future, I can still eat meat when I want to eat meat. It feels like I have mastered a means of living for the poor.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"That is to say, it serves as a visual deception, and the taste is still somewhat different. Relatively speaking, real pork belly is more delicious."

After drying the vegetarian pork belly for a while, he picked it up, cut it into strips, and placed them neatly on the plate.

This kind of vegetarian dishes is all about presentation, so people think it is real meat dishes at first sight.

With this preconceived idea, if you taste it again, your brain will automatically substitute the real ingredients into the ingredients, forming brain fraud.

Lin Xu made it one by one, and fried some broccoli, lettuce, and small rapeseed with vegetarian lard.

Put everything on the table, and a table of meaty and vegetarian dishes is officially completed.

"Yanbao, hurry up and eat something delicious!"

After the dishes were arranged, Shen Jiayue took a photo with her mobile phone and sent it to Chen Yan.

Originally, I wanted to inform my parents, but considering the calories of these dishes, I thought it was better not to destroy the fat loss plan made by my mother.

The calories of these dishes on the table are much higher than real meat dishes, and most of them are carbohydrates.

If Old Shen came over to have a big meal, it is very likely that he will return to before liberation.

In the office, Chen Yanzheng and Zeng Xiaoqi were sitting on the sofa, looking at the filming suggestions put forward by CCTV, one by one, actually listed several pages.

This is the case with the cooperation with the national mouthpiece department. There can be no mistakes, and any details need to be discussed and communicated before implementation.

However, the pre-work is a bit more cumbersome, and when the actual shooting starts, there will be no so many things.

Hearing the notification tone of the mobile phone message, she picked it up to take a look, and couldn't help curling her lips:
"Knowing that I can't eat these big fish and meat, you sent them out to lure me...Little Qiqi, do you want to eat them? Although the dishes on this big table seem ordinary, there are many kinds after all."

Zeng Xiaoqi on the side took the phone and took a look:
"Why did you cook such a large table of dishes suddenly? Is there anything worth celebrating?"

Chen Yan didn't know either, she refused to reply to Shen Jiayue, so she took the document and continued to read it.

However, after just a second glance, another message came:
"All vegetarian, no meat dishes!"

Chen Yan frowned:

"You can insult my personality, but you can't insult my IQ. These big elbows, Dongpo pork, pork belly strips, roast duck slices, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and squirrel mandarin fish are all vegetarian dishes?"

Tch, don't try to pull me into the water!

Zeng Xiaoqi on the side said:
"At noon, I remembered that Boss Lin said that he was going to shoot a vegetarian banquet. At that time, he chatted with Chef Xie and the others on WeChat for a while, as if asking for advice... These are all vegetarian, right?"

Chen Yan has a crush on her:
"If this is a table of vegetarian food, I ate the table, do you dare to bet with me?"

"Cut, don't stay here to cheat food and drink."

Zeng Xiaoqi didn't want to bet with her. She looked at the time, and it was almost dinner time, so she said:
"Let's go for a walk, let's go to the store to have a meal and discuss it. By the way, we can see whether the dishes on this table are meat or vegetarian... If it's all vegetarian, then we can release several episodes of similar programs later."

Last weekend, Xie Baomin visited a vegetarian restaurant with an average per capita of [-] yuan, and netizens responded enthusiastically.

If the table made by Lin Xu is imitation meat dishes, then a few episodes of programs will be released in succession to let netizens see the true colors of these imitation meat dishes.

Vegetarian dishes are eaten in a restaurant with an average of one or two thousand per capita. Although you can enjoy the elegance of the whole environment and the exquisite dishes, one thing to say is that it is still expensive.

So in that episode, the barrage of IQ tax continued.

Since it's an IQ tax, let's split it up and show it to netizens, whether it's worth tasting or not, everyone has their own conclusions.

Chen Yan tidied up her desk and left after get off work with Zeng Xiaoqi.

In the store, the tasting session started, but Shen Jiayue held up her chopsticks and didn't know which dish to start with.

Every dish on the table was exquisitely arranged, and rashly tasting it would destroy the overall beauty, so she couldn't bear to raise her chopsticks to do it.

After much deliberation, she still tasted the vegetarian pork belly on the table.

A piece of pork belly that is ruddy on the outside and tender on the inside is picked up and delivered to the mouth. The first thing you feel is the rich taste and rich aroma of the stewed soup.

Chewing gently, you can clearly feel the tendons and toughness of the pork belly, which is the same as the taste of real pork belly.

Bite off the outer skin, and taste the soft and tender belly meat inside.

Compared with real pork belly, the taste of these belly meat is slightly worse, and the flexibility is not enough. Except for this slight flaw, the other parts are no different from real pork belly.

As for the alkaline water that is wiped between the tofu skins when making it, it is also integrated with the stewed soup, and there is no alkaline taste at all.

"It's delicious. I didn't expect the pork belly made of tofu skin to be so similar to the real thing."

With surprise on her face, she kept admiring the charm of cooking.

Lin Xu said:

"If I were more particular, I would put a few layers of oily bean curd inside the tofu skin, which would be more flexible and taste closer to pork belly."

The flexibility of pork belly is not only the delicate and tender meat, but also the fascia inside, which gives the pork belly a richer taste.

After Shen Jiayue finished eating, she took another spoonful of crab powder and tasted it, her eyes were full of surprise again:
"Wow, this is no different from crab noodles. Give me a bowl of noodles, and I can eat them all."

After the mashed potatoes are fried, it will be slightly sandy, and the taste is very similar to crab roe.

When the carrot puree is fried, it will automatically form a group, and it tastes like a large piece of crab roe and crab paste.

This kind of taste is matched with red mixed with white, which is really no different from crab noodles.

"I think we can serve a vegetarian crab noodles in our store, so that people who want to try crab noodles, or those who are allergic to crabs, can feel the feeling of eating bald butter bibimbap."

Bald Butter Bibimbap is a famous food in the Yangtze River Delta region. It is expensive, and a serving can cost hundreds of dollars.

Although many people admire this delicacy, not everyone can afford it.

So there are many substitutes for this delicacy, such as this vegetarian crab powder, and Sai crab fried with egg yolk and egg white, etc., all to replace expensive crabs.

Shen Jiayue's words aroused Lin Xu's interest, he thought for a while and said:

"This proposal is good. It's been a long time since I've launched a new topping for hand-rolled noodles. Let's add a new topping for a limited time later, so that customers can try it. If the sales are good, we will officially launch a new topping."

After the tasting, the filming officially ended.

Shen Jiayue actually wanted to try elbow and Dongpo pork, but thinking that everyone would eat it later, it wasn't suitable for her to eat with it, nor for people in the shop to take pictures.

After turning off the camera, Lin Xu said:

"Take out all these dishes, and let Wei Gan choose by the way, and see which dish he wants to learn."

This kind of imitation meat dish is indeed a way to satisfy the gluttony of the elderly who cannot eat meat, but it should not be eaten frequently. After all, this kind of dish is basically high in oil, fat and carbohydrates, and eating too much is not good for the health.

According to Lin Xu's idea, the most suitable for Wei Gan is actually vegetarian lard. Cooking with vegetarian lard can make the vegetables a little more plump that is unique to lard.

It tastes really no different from stir-frying with lard.

As for others, you can learn from vegetarian crab noodles and the like. Other Dongpo meat with big elbows and the like are too high in fat and are not suitable.

The two called a few waiters and brought the dishes on the table to the private room upstairs.

Outside the small kitchen, Xiao Qing, who was originally helping Yan Lin with official duties, almost had her eyes pop out.

Whoa, elbows!

Wow, Dongpo Pork!
Wow, abalone in sauce!

Wow, Liao ginseng with abalone sauce!
Seeing the dishes one by one, she was full of surprise. She never thought that imitation meat dishes could be imitated to such an extent. This is simply a pixel-level imitation.

"Has the receipt from Singapore Blue Sky Company come?"

"Sent"

"What's written on it?"

"Big Elbow... Oh no, he agrees with our plan."

Xiao Qing was so focused on eating her elbows that she made a mistake at work.

Yan Lin smiled and closed the laptop:

"Forget it, forget it, let's deal with the rest on the plane. After eating, the smell goes straight into my nostrils, hooking out my greedy worms."

Xiao Qing said with some embarrassment:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yan, I shouldn't be distracted."

"There's nothing you should or shouldn't do about this. Being distracted means that you are really greedy for these dishes, and it's not your fault. Go for a walk, eat with me, and send a message to Lele by the way, telling her to come over quickly. Even chopped green onions are late." Nothing left for her."

Xiao Qing: "..."

Did you say this to Lele?
Why do you feel that Lele is used as a megaphone?
However, she still sent a message to Geng Lele, and soon the message came back:
"Come here, I'm on my way, I took a taxi with my godfather, I'll be there soon!"

In the past, when Cui Qingyuan came to eat, he usually took a stroll, occasionally rode a shared bicycle, and almost never took a taxi.

But today, he will be separated from his lover again for a short time, which makes him very eager for today's meal.

In the private room, when various dishes were arranged on the table one by one, a system prompt sounded in Lin Xu's mind:
"Congratulations to the host for making the all-vegetarian banquet, completing the side mission [special package table], and winning a lucky draw for the perfect local special banquet. Do you want to draw the lucky draw immediately?"

Hoho, it's finally done.

Since the last clear soup banquet was made, Lin Xu knew the magic of the private room.

It is impossible to complete the task by setting a table in a small kitchen, but if it is placed in a private room, the system will default to a private table, which is equivalent to completing the task.

The task is finally completed, and I will cook two Northeast dishes later, and the task of high-end Northeast dishes will also be completed.

In this way, we can fully deal with the two main tasks in Yinzhou.

One is to make the racecourse famous, and the other is to increase the special dishes of the restaurant. Both are difficult, but they are also quite challenging.

Going back this time, Lin Xu's role is the same as that of Dundun, purely as a mascot, because he doesn't understand the process of opening a business, and he is only responsible for dressing up handsomely and taking photos with all the guests.

"Aha, Yan Bao, hurry up and take a look, this table is full of vegetarian dishes, isn't it surprising?"

When Chen Yan and Zeng Xiaoqi came upstairs, they couldn't move their eyes when they saw the table full of dishes.

Come on, these dishes look very tempting.

The key is that these are all vegetarian dishes... I feel that the three views have been impacted.

Zeng Xiaoqi touched Chen Yan with her elbow:
"What did you say before you came here? If this is a vegetarian dish, you'd eat the table?"

Chen Yan made a haha:
"Why do you always like to read things about Chen Guzi and rotten sesame seeds? Ahem...the company just planned to film a few episodes of imitation meat dishes, but I didn't expect my brother-in-law to make such a big table. Don't look at Xiao Qiqi, hurry up Try it, which dish is suitable for the company to shoot."

Zeng Xiaoqi glanced at it casually, and directly selected several elegant dishes such as vegetarian sea cucumber, vegetarian abalone, vegetarian saury, sweet and sour vegetarian tenderloin, and squirrel vegetarian mandarin fish.

She said:
"These kinds of appearances are more bluffing, and they will definitely cause a sensation when they are photographed."

Dongpo Pork is actually good, but after all, this is a dish that has been rotten on the Internet, so there is no need to shoot it. Relatively speaking, unpopular dishes are more eye-catching.

Just as they were talking, Cui Qingyuan and Geng Le arrived happily.

"Eating and eating, I'm so hungry after smelling it."

Everyone sat down and started to eat. Lin Xu originally wanted to go downstairs to draw a lottery, but since everyone had already started eating, he sat down with a bowl of rice.

It's not too late to go down to draw a lottery after eating, just to be more calm.

He tasted the dishes on the table, and found that the vegetarian sea cucumber was quite well prepared. It was made by chopping fungus and mixing lotus root powder together, making it into the shape of sea cucumber, and frying it in a pan.

After frying, cut a vertical knife under the sea cucumber, and it will be more similar to the real sea cucumber.

In fact, the imitation meat dishes are equipped with sea cucumber molds, which are made of silicone and can make the ingredients exactly the same as real sea cucumbers.

Today is too hasty and unprepared, otherwise it will definitely improve the appearance of vegetarian sea cucumbers.

Vegetarian abalone is actually quite simple. It is enough to change the cross pattern knife commonly used for abalone on the shiitake mushrooms. However, if you use shiitake mushrooms alone, the taste will be almost boring, so now it is usually made with a mixture of egg yolk, chopped fungus, shiitake mushrooms and lotus root powder.

The made abalone must be shaped first, and then processed and cooked.

Finally, pour a spoonful of thick vegetarian abalone sauce, and the whole dish is done.

The method of vegetarian abalone juice is not difficult. First, vegetables are boiled into a vegetarian broth, and then vegetarian lard, water starch, and dark soy sauce are added for coloring, flavoring and thickening.

In this way, it is exactly the same as the must-have abalone sauce for high-end Cantonese cuisine.

Spoon a spoonful and pour it on the prepared abalone, it really feels like eating abalone in a high-end restaurant.

"It's delicious, today's meal is really unexpected."

Cui Qingyuan originally came to see his lover off, but as soon as he sat down, he was addicted to the ocean of delicious food, and he forgot all the love words he had prepared.

But even if he said it now, Yan Lin didn't care to listen.

At this time, the boss is feeling the deliciousness of vegetarian saury.

The method of this dish is relatively troublesome. First cut the oily bean curd into the slender shape of the saury, and then spread the fish paste made with shiitake mushrooms and other ingredients.

Finally, cover with another piece of oily bean skin, and use the adhesiveness of water starch to firmly stick the oily bean skin together.

The finished saury is fried with vegetarian lard, and then fried with a little fried bean curd, embellished in the shape of fish fins, and the whole vegetarian saury is officially completed.

After the fried soybean skin is fried with vegetarian lard, the texture and taste are similar to real fried fish.

Yan Lin sighed while eating:
"I still remember when there was no fishing ban, a small saury in the restaurant cost thousands of dollars, which was a bit higher than the per capita salary at that time... Relatively speaking, vegetarian saury is a bargain."

Chen Yan tasted the sweet and sour tenderloin, and the crispy pork bowl, and asked curiously:

"Isn't this really meat? It feels exactly the same as eating meat."

"No, Yan Bao, it's all made of gluten. I feel like I was given a magic class by the chef Xu Bao today. The dishes on the table are all made of the most common ingredients, but they are all made to look taller. stand up."

It’s okay if there are only roast duck, pork, pork belly, etc., but sea cucumber, abalone, shark’s fin and bird’s nest are all available. Regardless of health factors, these dishes are really delicious.

Just when everyone was eating vigorously, Geng Lele said:
"The calories in these dishes are much higher than those in meat dishes... Take this vegetarian shrimp dish as an example, the calories in real shrimp are 48 kcal, but the vegetarian one is at least 500 kcal... Tsk tsk, you guys Eat, don't you plan to lose weight?"

When she poured this pot of cold water, not only Chen Yan looked silly, but even Yan Lin couldn't believe it:

"Really? Is the heat so high?"

Everyone looked at Lin Xu, wanting to hear his conclusion.

"Lele is right. These dishes are indeed high in calories. Let's take this vegetarian shrimp as an example. It uses yam as the main ingredient, and puts starch in it, condenses it into jelly, and then carves it into shrimps. Stir-fried with lard and vegetarian broth...the heat is indeed a bit high."

Chen Yan originally wanted to experience the joy of eating vegetarian dishes and meat, but she didn't expect this to be a beautiful trap, so she couldn't help but said to Zeng Xiaoqi:

"Before the filming of the state banquet documentary has started, quickly shoot a few videos of imitation meat dishes to expose the ugly faces of those merchants... People who promote this kind of food are full of brains!"

I have no objection to you using vegetarian dishes to make money, but you say that eating this kind of vegetarian dishes is healthier and you lose weight, and you use this to fool people into eating more, then don’t blame me for being rude.

Geng Lele said:
"There is already a law in nature. Herbivores are fatter, such as hippos and elephants, but carnivorous animals. Few are fat. Even if they are fat, they are all caused by improper feeding in zoos."

Chen Yan put down her chopsticks angrily, and let's eat vegetable salad.

Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"Don't be angry, Yan Bao, I'll buy some buckwheat noodles later, and make you a fat-reducing meal, so that you can experience the joy of eating noodles mixed with crab noodles."

Humph, isn't it mashed potatoes and mashed carrots? It's not too difficult, and it can definitely be made easily.

Chen Yangang was about to object, but she tasted the vegetarian crab powder again, and said:

"Okay, then I'll wait and put more vegetables."

The taste of crab powder is good, and the glycemic index of buckwheat noodles is quite low. This combination is really good for the body, much better than these unhealthy vegetarian dishes on the table.

Everyone continued to eat, but the women obviously lost their energy just now.

Food calories have always been a sharp sword hanging over the heads of beauty lovers, and the alarm bells need to ring for a long time to maintain a good figure for a long time.

Lin Xu was still thinking about the lottery draw at the moment, he hurriedly ate a bowl of rice, then went to the kitchen, and went downstairs with the meat prepared for Dundun.

Good boy, get up and work!
