Chapter 814 Dundun: I am smart and never miss any opportunity to make money!Butterfly platter! 【Subscribe】

"Xubao, make more noodles!"

In the morning, when Lin Xu woke up, Shen Jiayue muttered in a daze in the bed, then put on a thin blanket and continued to sleep soundly.

Lin Xu smiled helplessly, thinking about food while sleeping, he is really a standard foodie.

He got dressed, pulled on his slippers and went to the bathroom.

While brushing his teeth, he turned on his phone and looked at it, and found that yesterday's trailer actually became the most popular short video platform, and topics related to the state banquet also rushed to the top five positions.

It's really amazing that there is such a heat overnight.

Click on the short video platform, there are four or five videos related to the state banquet on the homepage, some UP hosts do science popularization, and some people reproduce some classic dishes on the state banquet.

Lin Xu flipped through, and there was even a state banquet master who showed up and told about his experience of filming a state banquet.

At first, I thought that another chef with a Chinese prefix had opened an account, but I clicked on it and found that I had never seen it before, and my resume was not impressive. The only thing I could tell was that I had worked as a chef at a state banquet.

For a large-scale state banquet, there are almost a thousand people in the back kitchen. It is impossible for everyone to be the head chef, so most of them are chefs drawn from various restaurants as assistant cooks.

In fact, among the chefs of each state banquet, only the chief chefs of each region, the head chefs of each department, and the chefs directly involved in the preparation of dishes are eligible to be called state banquet chefs.

A kitchen helper or handyman with a lower level is not qualified to be called that.

Lin Xu looked at the long video uploaded last night, and now the number of views has exceeded 100 million, and the statistics of comments, reposts, favorites, likes, etc. are also very good.

After all, it hasn't been updated for a few days, and the video of Lao Suntou fishing has become popular on the Internet.

The combination of the two led to the whole fish feast video going viral.

Click on the comment area, all of which are comments from netizens:
"I have learned, I have learned, and now I am short of a 71.3-jin fat head fish."

"Anyone sponsor the fish? I can make a whole fish feast on the spot!"

"I just dug up an earthworm, may I ask how far away I am from a 71.3-jin whole fish feast?"

"I really want to try it. I feel that all the dishes are very delicious."

"My favorite is the fish brain steamed egg, it looks delicious."

"..."

After Lin Xu brushed his teeth and washed his face, he went downstairs with his mobile phone, ready to make breakfast.

Today is still hollow noodles, in order to prevent not enough to eat, Lin Xu also plans to fry some steamed buns, and then mix with lettuce to make cold fried dough sticks with both vegetables and rice.

When passing by the door of Dundun's room, the little guy was already up, still holding a red bow tie in his mouth.

Lin Xu asked curiously:
"What is this for? Are you going to wear a bow tie today?"

"Meow!!!!"

Dundun agreed seriously, then jumped onto the low stool next to him, put the red bow tie in his mouth on it, and stretched out his paw to pat it a few times, urging him to put it on quickly.

Lin Xu took the bow tie and put it around the kitten's neck. Dundun immediately went to the side to look in the mirror and let out a cry of satisfaction.

"Why are you suddenly so stinky today?"

It's a pity that I don't know cat language, otherwise I would be able to sit down and chat with the child seriously... Lin Xu stretched out his hand and scratched the little guy's head, then went downstairs to prepare breakfast.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, aren’t all parents like this? They think they know everything about their children, but in fact they don’t know anything about them. In many cases, there is even a chicken-to-duck situation.

When he came downstairs, he first put the noodles of the fried buns on and put them aside for steaming.

Then fish two loaches from the aquarium, kill them, remove the meat, cut them into small cubes, add an egg yolk, mix well, and put them in the steaming cabinet for steaming.

After finishing these, start to prepare the saozi for noodles.

Today is still the topping of diced meat, but instead of diced meat and sour bamboo shoots, it is diced meat, garlic sprouts and the mushrooms brought back from the store yesterday. This kind of topping is poured on the noodles, and it is served with green vegetables and crispy whistle. The taste is absolutely not bad where to go.

Lin Xu took a piece of pork belly and started dicing. After dicing, he prepared the ingredients such as mushrooms, put the wok on the shelf, and started cooking. When the toppings were ready, the loach in the pot was already steamed.

He took it out and dried it for Dundun to eat.

At this moment, Shen Jiayue had already woken up, and just as she was about to do aerobics, Chen Yan had already arrived downstairs.

"Yueyue, haven't you gotten up yet? Am I coming too early? Why don't I come over after you finish the meal?"

Chen Yan called and called to open the door. Hearing Shen Jiayue's voice was a little lazy, she thought the girl hadn't woken up yet.

"Pull it down, my baby woke up early, and just danced on the roof for half an hour. Aerobic exercise on an empty stomach can help eliminate fat. You don't know that, Yan Bao?"

Shen Jiayue is a person who never loses money with her mouth, especially in front of her cousin, heh heh, she dares to suspect that I just woke up, then she must not admit it!

Soon, Chen Yan came upstairs. Seeing that breakfast was not ready, she excitedly planned to go to her house to check the monitoring results.

You have to be absolutely sure that there is no formaldehyde in your home before moving in. After all, compared with appetite, the baby is the most important thing.

And since we are neighbors in the future, there will be more opportunities to grab a meal, so there is no rush for a day or two.

The two excitedly went upstairs to the rooftop, and then went along the rooftop to Chen Yan's house to check the formaldehyde monitoring equipment.

Lin Xu started frying the steamed buns in the kitchen. In order to make the cold sauce more delicious, he deliberately turned up the heat, so that the steamed buns tasted more crispy and delicious.

After the steamed buns are deep-fried, boil the water and start cooking the noodles.

When Shen Jiayue and Chen Yan came back, the noodles had already been cooked, and the steamed buns were cut into small pieces and mixed with round lettuce. Garlic juice, chili oil, balsamic vinegar and other condiments were mixed together, so that the steamed buns and lettuce were full of flavor. A different taste.

"Wow, I like this kind of noodles, it looks delicious."

When Lin Xu put the finished crispy whistle into the big bowl with a spoon, Shen Jiayue couldn't wait to bring it over, stirred the noodles with chopsticks, picked up a chopstick and blew it, and ate it with a big mouthful!
Today's hollow noodles are still served in a bowl per person, but the bowl is bigger and has more noodles.

This solid bowl of noodles is served with steamed buns mixed with lettuce, theoretically speaking, it is definitely enough to eat.

Shen Jiayue took a sip of the noodles, and took another bite with the cold steamed bun, and let out a contented sigh:

"It's so delicious, it feels like this is life."

Chen Yan glanced at her speechlessly:
"Don't you guys cook at home every day? It's as if you eat this meal for a year... By the way, I have to move here quickly. This is the first time I have such a delicious breakfast. I am so wronged! "

In the past, I always felt that the way of eating carbohydrates and carbohydrates was a bit speechless, but in fact, this is the correct way to eat pasta. For example, today’s noodles and steamed buns are really invincible and delicious.

"Brother-in-law, if I'm not full later, you have to cook me some more noodles. I'm not greedy, but I'm just worried that the baby in my stomach won't be full. I can't let the child starve with me since childhood."

Lin Xu: "..."

Are the reasons for being greedy now so fresh and refined?

He promised, and then chatted about the work content in the next few days.

"After filming the dinner in Shanghai today, the chapter of Nixon's visit to China has come to an end, and the appearances of my master and brother have also come to an end. The rest of the banquet may appear occasionally, but it will not be the main star. After all, those old people have to show their faces, but I can't let everyone just look at me... So I plan to take advantage of this time to implement the matter of the chef school."

Although this matter is just an idea now, it is not difficult to implement, because the master and the others have all nodded. In the future, as long as the Chinese Cuisine Association takes the lead, and the qualifications of famous chefs are revealed, the teaching can be smoothed out.

But this alone is not enough. A private school must have complete procedures, a campus, a sound management system, a detailed teaching plan, and a stable source of students and employment channels.

All of these had to be prepared by Lin Xu, and even had to rely on relationships to get it done.

He planned to ask Geng Lishan and Cai Heping to see how to apply and handle the specific procedures. As long as the procedures are complete, other aspects will be much easier.

Chen Yan did not expect Lin Xu to run a school:
"I'll ask someone later to see what procedures are required for technical private schools. If the difficulty is high, you can just buy a technical school directly."

These words reminded Lin Xu.

That's right, not to mention the troublesome procedures from scratch, it also takes time and effort. If you can buy a technical school license, you can save a lot of time at once.

Well, after the filming of today's state banquet is over, I'll find someone to ask.

After breakfast, he cleaned up the kitchen, and the group went downstairs and drove to the store.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the store, he saw Hou Dingshan waiting there leaning on a Maesa sharp-style Cayenne. Lin Xu parked the car in the parking space, pushed the door to get out of the car, and said hello to him:
"Why did Mr. Hou come here suddenly? Is there something wrong?"

Hou Dingshan said with a smile:

"You didn't say anything about the documentary about the state banquet. We plan to sponsor one or two high-end programs to officially launch the Maisa Rui brand in China... Can we still participate now?"

This is probably enough.

If there is no CCTV, I can come here anyway.

However, CCTV represents the image of the country. It would be incongruous to show a foreign luxury car brand in a state banquet program. Moreover, the current mainstream tone in society is to promote domestic cars. suitable.

Lin Xu didn't directly refuse either, he thought for a while and said:

"Let me help you ask, how to decide depends on the leaders."

As the promotion ambassador of Maisa Rui, he couldn't just refuse directly, that would hurt Mr. Hou's face too much.

Hou Dingshan didn't really come here for this matter, he glanced at Dundun and said:
"A new batch of car models has arrived. We would like to invite Dundun to take some promotional photos. Do you have time today?"

This is the reason why he came here. It is more expensive to buy some car models alone, and there is no reference, so it is difficult to grasp the exact size.

And asking Dundun to help take a group photo can perfectly show the size of the car model, and it can also catch the heat of the little guy.

Of course, this will not make it helpless, and will be paid according to the price of a high-end model.

Lin Xu glanced at Dundun, asked to wear a bow tie early in the morning, was it just to prepare for this?
Now that Dundun is ready, the parents will naturally not say anything:
"No problem, Mr. Hou, I can set off to shoot later, and I just let Dundun go out to relax."

Shen Jiayue originally wanted to go to the Yanjing Hotel to watch the filming of the state banquet, but since Hou Dingshan came here specially to invite Dundun, let's go there and let the little guy pick some car models he likes to bring back.

"The photographer is ready, if there is nothing wrong, let's go?"

Hou Dingshan looked at his watch. He planned to take advantage of the relatively soft light at this moment to shoot the exterior scene, and when the sun rose and the light was strong, he would concentrate on shooting the interior.

Upon hearing this, Shen Jiayue went to the store to get some jerky for Dundun, and then carried it into Chen Yan's car.

Since he was on a business trip, the agent had to follow.

It just so happened that Chen Yan followed suit, so she could also take over the business of taking publicity photos later.

Not long after Shen Jiayue left, Lin Xu also drove to Yanjing Hotel.

When he arrived at the shooting site, Lao Huang had already sent over the ingredients to be used today, including wax gourd, mandarin fish, hairy crabs and other ingredients, which were complete and sufficient.

"Brother, what are you missing, what are you talking about? I'm not busy until tomorrow, and I'll get you some swimming crabs weighing more than a catty."

"Okay, no problem."

After checking all the ingredients, Lao Huang asked in a low voice:

"Can this crab really be imitated? How do I do it?"

Lin Xu smiled and said:
"It's quite simple to say, steam the crabs and stuff them into the shell, hang the batter and fry them to make crab buckets, then cut the mandarin fish meat into crab legs, hang the crispy batter and fry them, and hang some bread crumbs on the crab claws , make the mitten claws of a hairy crab, and then assemble them together to look like a hairy crab, and that’s it.”

Lao Huang frowned:

"It sounds simple, but I can't do it at all."

Those who meet are not difficult, those who are difficult will not.

After the recipe process, it is really not difficult for current chefs. What is difficult is that the chef who created this dish did not know how many hairs were scratched to make this method without removing the crab.

On the contrary, the practice of crab fighting is relatively old. There were similar dishes in the Song Dynasty, and it was carried forward even more in the Ming Dynasty.

In "Jin Ping Mei", Chang Shijie specially ordered his wife to make fresh crabs as a reward because he was grateful for Ximen Qing's kindness in borrowing money and donating money. The original text described the method of this delicacy in detail:
"Forty big crabs, all peeled and cleaned, stuffed with meat inside, wrapped with pepper, ginger, garlic, rice flour, and made with sesame oil (zhá, also known as "fried"), soy sauce and vinegar , fragrant, crispy and delicious.”

This kind of process and steps is exactly the practice of crab fighting, which shows the prevalence of crab fighting at that time.

While chatting, Xie Baomin came.

When the staff of the filming team are ready, the filming of today's state banquet will officially start.

The state banquet in Shanghai was a farewell banquet. Nixon left by special plane on the second day of the banquet, so the food was slightly inferior to the state banquet in Hangzhou. A state banquet is more humane.

The first dish was a butterfly platter that hinted at the butterfly effect of Nixon's visit to China, followed by eight small dishes, which were similar in content to the eight-flavored small dishes at the Hangzhou state banquet.

The remaining dishes are: green beans and shrimps, hanging oven roast duck, flower basket tofu, crab-shaped mandarin fish, winter melon soup, small steamed dumplings, assorted desserts, bean paste gnocchi.

Among them, green beans and shrimps are Nixon’s taste of Longjing shrimps, so he added a similar shrimp dish.

And the hanging oven roast duck was not enough roast duck at the state banquet in Beijing, so I had another meal before leaving.

As for the glutinous rice balls with bean paste, it was the first meal Nixon ate when he got off the plane. He landed in Shanghai at that time, and he had a Shanghai-style breakfast when he got off the plane. Quenching.

Although his political stances are different, Nixon himself still likes the mysterious big oriental country. He came here again in the 80s and 90s, and he is an old friend of the Chinese people.

Uncle Gao said:
"The wax gourd cup can be steamed in half an hour at most. Let's start later. The duck base for the roast duck is ready. It can be made in an hour at most. It doesn't take too long. Let's make eight small dishes and a butterfly platter first. Those few crabs are also steamed, and the meat will be removed after a while."

Lin Xu and Xie Baomin agreed and prepared to go.

Uncle Gao is personally in charge of today's main dish, the butterfly platter. This dish is simpler than the flower basket cold dish, but it is still full of creativity.

Especially the lifelike shape of the butterfly is amazing.

Uncle Gao first took a straighter cucumber and cut it into cucumber strips, marinated with sweet and sour sauce.

After these cucumber strips are softened and tasty, they can be used as tentacles of butterflies, and they can also be placed on the belly of butterflies to support the shape of butterflies.

The whole butterfly platter needs to use a variety of ingredients such as yams, carrots, cucumbers, sausages, sea cucumbers, etc., each ingredient is cooked in advance, and then put on the plate.

After all the ingredients are put together, it becomes the famous butterfly platter handed down from generation to generation.

Lin Xu untied the crabs and scrubbed them clean, then tied them up and placed them on the steaming plate. After all the crabs were arranged, they were sent to the steaming cabinet for steaming.

After finishing these tasks, he and Xie Baomin cooked eight small dishes, that is, eight cold dishes.

The smoked fish, lotus root, cucumber, and stinging head are the same as those used in the Hangzhou state banquet, but today we added meat, crispy intestines, white-cut chicken, and preserved eggs.

The preparation of these dishes is not difficult. Although the traditional method of cooking meat needs to be left overnight, it is not necessary to be so serious today.

Outside the shooting location, Dai Jianli asked his uncle Dai Yuefeng curiously:
"Is it time for us to shoot tomorrow?"

"Yes, tomorrow floor No. 18 and No. 17 will be filming jointly. When the time comes, you should behave well and don't discredit our Sichuan cuisine."

"Don't worry, uncle, if I can't cook it tomorrow, I will say that I am a chef of Huaiyang cuisine. I will never embarrass Sichuan cuisine."

Dai Yuefeng touched his crutches, feeling the urge to give his nephew two strokes.

Ning Shoubang at the side stopped him and said:

"It would be great if our little Li had a personality like Jianli's. That kid is too stubborn. I'm really worried about what he will develop in the future."

Dai Jianli said:
"Don't worry about that. He's definitely more successful than Uncle Ning. He's not only trying roast duck, he's also started to try other dishes. He might become the best cook in the Ning family."

Ning Shoubang: "..."

Why did I have to stop it just now?
