Chapter 1021 Chu Yunfeng was deeply misunderstood

Wan Lao also felt a little confused about Zhao Tianhao's tangled expression. This was the most talented chef in the store and the great-grandson of his uncle's generation.

It can be said that all the chefs in the Wan family have carefully cultivated him, allowing him to grow into a leader of the younger generation. And with the disappointed look on his face before leaving just now, Wan Lao regretted that he was too harsh just now.

He must want to watch himself cook, after all, it is a rare opportunity. He has learned the unique skills of several chefs on weekdays, but he has never found a chance to learn a lot from himself.

I finally got this opportunity today, but I drove him away. Wouldn't it make him feel very disappointed?

Wan Lao also felt a little unbearable at this time, but mainly because President Hou and Chu Yunfeng were present. The thought of betraying Old Man Li just now made him feel a little uncomfortable.

So when the stubbornness came up, I naturally felt a little irritable. Seeing so many people coming to join in the fun naturally aroused my evil spirit.

Forget it, why not find a chance to go to the kitchen to cook two dishes later? These guys have made trouble for themselves all day long.
Wan Lao, who thought he had guessed correctly, now wanted to send President Hou and Chu Yunfeng away, so he said angrily: "It won't take much time for a hundred birds to pay homage to the phoenix.

The key lies in the shape of the main ingredient and the presentation of other decorations. To make this dish well, it actually tests the chef's carving skills. "

Once the idea of ​​​​wanting to kill it quickly came up, Wan Lao wanted to tell the specific time of this dish, but in the end he gave a general answer.

Chu Yunfeng felt the perfunctoriness of this attitude, so he sighed in his heart. It seemed that he had to speed up, otherwise what if he changed his mind and stopped doing it?
Since he was not interested in these ten dishes, Chu Yunfeng immediately went straight to the point: "Wan Lao, what dim sum are you good at?"

dessert?

Chu Yunfeng's focus not only surprised Wan Lao, but even President Hou didn't understand. Except for Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, among the ten famous dishes, wouldn't it be delicious if you choose two of the other nine?
Why do you think you want to learn dim sum again?
However, President Hou then thought about it and realized that the palace's dim sum production was also unique, and it seemed that it would be a good idea to learn from it. After all, this competition also had a dim sum competition.

Now that we have reached this point, President Hou is too lazy to bother anymore and just do whatever he likes. Who makes Wan Lao have the same temper as Mr. Li?
However, when Chu Yunfeng started to ask about dim sum, he immediately understood his real purpose in his heart, and now he felt a little bit lost.

Who is this looking down on?
I don’t want to see the exquisite dishes in my hand, but I want to see the making of dim sum. Is this because I’m eating it in my own hands? I’m deliberately pretending not to care. Do you want to make yourself angry?
Haha, my old man has never seen anything in his life. This little trick is nothing. If I get angry, I will take your last name!

Wan Lao, who thought he had once again seen through Chu Yunfeng's disguise, felt even more proud. This snack was good, it was faster to make, and it would be over faster, so why not do it?

So Wan Lao even showed a faint smile at this time: "When it comes to making palace dim sum, I think Sanbuzhang, Bazhen Cake and Lily Cake are more distinctive."

Wan Lao originally wanted to just talk about a few simple and ordinary snacks, but when he thought about it, what if Old Man Li said that he was perfunctory after returning?
He couldn't stop talking about this, so he still talked about the three top-quality snacks that he was best at and at the same time the most exquisite.

Chu Yunfeng was indeed a little surprised. He had heard of one of the three snacks mentioned by Wan Lao, and that was the three-no-stick snack. It was said that it was very distinctive and lived up to its name.

The three non-stick characteristics mainly refer to the fact that it does not stick to plates, chopsticks and teeth. It is indeed very magical, but compared to the other two snacks, Chu Yunfeng is not very interested in it.

This Bazhen cake sounds like it has a lot of origins. The word "Bazhen" is a bit like "Eight Treasures". Eight treasures have their own porridge, so maybe these Bazhen cakes also have health-preserving effects?
Wouldn't it be great to keep healthy for those around you after you learn it?
As soon as Lily Cake sounded, she knew that the shape must be very beautiful, so Chu Yunfeng wanted to learn this snack. When Fengwei and Lily came out at the same time, how could anyone resist it?
But before you make a decision, you still need to understand the specific core content first. You can’t just learn a superficial lesson, right?
So Chu Yunfeng directly put aside the three non-sticks and just asked about the other two snacks: "What's the explanation for this Bazhen cake?

What type of snack is Lily Cake? "

Facing Chu Yunfeng's question at this time, Wan Lao suddenly felt a little confused again. Logically speaking, after he said these three snacks, this kid should just choose two and be done with it.

Only in this way can he act more indifferent, and in this way can he feel more angry, right?

But what he never expected was that he actually started to ask about the allusions of the two dim sum dishes, which clearly revealed that he was not in a hurry at all.

Is this because he is playing hard to get?

Deliberately disrupting one's own mind, and only after a while will appear indifferent again, will this make oneself even more angry?

But what if he is always calm and has a stable personality?

So could I have misunderstood him?

Chu Yunfeng's calm performance at this moment made Wan Lao feel conflicted in his heart, but he quickly rejected this speculation.

This kid must be playing hard to get, and I can't fall for his trick.

Wanting to "understand", Wan Lao took a deep breath before saying: "This Bazhen Cake is actually a health-preserving diet recipe in the palace.

It is said that it was first formulated by Chen Shigong, a miracle doctor of the Ming Dynasty. It is said that relying on this prescription, he is still full of energy even after he is 80 years old, which shows that it is indeed effective.

Later, during the Qianlong period, Emperor Qianlong took a fancy to this Bazhen Cake, so he ordered the imperial doctor to make slight adjustments to the recipe to make it more effective.

However, it was a palace recipe, and the precious medicinal materials used in it would certainly not be suitable for modern times, so later cooking masters improved this recipe a bit.

This has become a Bazhen cake suitable for ordinary people. Therefore, the ingredients and medicinal materials used in these two recipes are very different, and it depends on the user's own choice. "

Speaking of this place, Chu Yunfeng immediately understood that the recipe from the palace in the past was definitely suitable for people with weaker institutions, while the modern recipe was more suitable for the general public.

When Chu Yunfeng thought that his grandma was weak, his heart immediately became hot, and he quickly asked: "Is this palace version of the prescription still there?"

Anxious!

This little guy is in a hurry!

Sure enough, just as he had guessed, Chu Yunfeng began to show an eager look!

Wan Lao began to chuckle in his heart, but he still answered him seriously: "Yes, the eight ingredients used in this palace version are: Codonopsis pilosula, yam, lotus seeds, gorgon fruit, white lentils, coix seed, white tuckahoe and ginseng .

The modern versions are Poria cocos, barley, amomum, malt, lotus seeds, gallinaceae, hawthorn and yam. "

Chu Yunfeng concentrated on memorizing every ingredient Wan Lao mentioned. In fact, most of them were medicinal ingredients. Only after memorizing them all did he realize that the two formulas were indeed very different.

The second one is indeed more people-friendly than the first one. Ginseng is used in the palace formula, which is good for people with weak systems in ancient times.

But for modern people, their physical fitness has indeed improved a lot. Will eating too much ginseng cause nosebleeds?
After carefully analyzing the eight ingredients in the modern version, Chu Yunfeng was quite familiar with the effects of these things.

Poria: removes dampness!
Coix: Reduce turbidity!But it also has a dehumidifying effect.

Amomum villosum: warm and loose!
Malt: Promote Qi!
Lotus seeds: Wake up the spleen!
Gallus gallus gallus: Clear away the silt!

Hawthorn: Appetizing!
Yam: nourishes the spleen and promotes body fluids!
Good stuff!

Chu Yunfeng was ecstatic, and then continued to listen to Wan Lao's explanation: "This Lily Cake is actually a relatively traditional Soviet-style snack. It's not clear who invented it.

However, its shape is quite beautiful. I don’t think there is any dessert in the world that can compare with it. "

When Wan Lao mentioned this Lily Cake, he couldn't help but show an extremely proud look on his face. He seemed to have absolute confidence in this Lily Cake, confident that no dessert could match or surpass its beauty and connotation.

But Chu Yunfeng didn't think so, because he had just learned the phoenix tail cake taught by Mr. Li, which was quite exquisite, and he still couldn't believe it could not compare to the lily cake that Mr. Wan said.

So when Chu Yunfeng couldn't help but show a look of disapproval, this made the evil fire in Wan Lao's heart emerge again.

I'm coming!
This guy really is this routine, and now he shows a complacent look, dismissing his own snacks, does he really think he can't see through it?

Don't be angry, don't be angry!

Although he had predicted it in advance, Wan Lao didn't expect that he couldn't help but fall into the "trap" set by Chu Yunfeng, and he actually managed to break his defense in the end.

This is lily cake, its exquisiteness is not something ordinary people can see.

Even myself, I didn't pass this dish down, because although this dim sum looks relatively simple, it is too difficult to learn it.

Without step-by-step instruction, without mastering the techniques and filling ratios, the finished product will be a slag, which is simply an insult to this flawless dish.

So as time goes by, there are not many people who can make this snack, which makes people feel a little sad!
But he has made this snack twice in front of Zhao Tianhao and the others, but even Zhao Tianhao himself cannot grasp its essence.

He practiced hard for several months, but failed every time in mixing the ingredients. He never succeeded.

This has to make me feel depressed and worried. What if this dish is lost in the end?
Facing Chu Yunfeng, a "cunning" boy, Wan Lao seemed to not want to show this exquisite snack in front of him. After all, he still had a lot of regrets about this dish!

Showing it to him felt like it was a bit of a desecration of the dish.

But before Wan Lao denied this dish first, Chu Yunfeng immediately settled down: "Then please trouble Wan Lao, just Bazhen Cake and Lily Cake!"

Wan Lao felt bad instantly. The smile that was still there at the corner of his mouth just now disappeared. His whole face suddenly tensed up and his mouth began to pout.

Miscellaneous?

Why do you feel that the old man is still a little angry?
Wasn't it fine just now?

When Chu Yunfeng saw the expression Wan Lao made, he immediately thought of Mr. Li. When he was angry, he looked similar to this.

It seems that they really share similar tastes, otherwise these two people with weird personalities would not be close friends, and even the cooking rules are similar, so they really are like-minded people!

President Hou had already turned his head to one side and started to admire the bamboos in the yard. Anyway, he had already decided not to care about it and just do as he pleased.
"Wan Lao, Wan Lao?"

Seeing that Wan Lao seemed to be trying to cheat, Chu Yunfeng pretended not to know anything and asked softly, "How about we start?"

At this moment, Chu Yunfeng was too lazy to guess Wan Lao's mood and thoughts. As long as the old man could show off these two snacks, he would be very satisfied.

After seeing Chu Yunfeng pretending to be dumbfounded in front of him, Wan Lao felt that his whole person was even worse. But at this time, he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off, so he could only admit it.

But I still couldn't think about it, and I thought to myself, you brat, just wait for me. When you call Old Man Li later, do you think I won't sue you properly?
After nodding helplessly, Wan Lao immediately took out his cell phone, dialed the number of the chef, and then named a lot of ingredients and asked them to deliver them immediately.

But just when Wan Lao was halfway through his instructions, Chu Yunfeng suddenly interrupted: "Wan Lao, which version of this Bazhen cake are we making?
Can both versions be done once? "

Insatiable!
In fact, Wan Lao never thought about making two versions, because the palace version is basically unused now, so naturally he defaulted to making the modern version.

If you are an outsider, you will definitely think that these are just Bazhen cakes, which use eight kinds of ingredients. As long as you can make one of them, wouldn’t the other ones be at your fingertips?

However, Chu Yunfeng knew clearly that when making dim sum, as long as there are some changes in one or two ingredients, there will be some changes in the technique and order when making it.

If it is still made according to the previous method, the taste and efficacy will be greatly changed.

So since I want to master two different recipes of Bazhen Cake in detail, I naturally need to read both. If I don't make the request at this time, I will miss the palace version.

However, in Wan Lao's view, his request was a bit unreasonable, so after his eyes turned to him, he looked at himself for ten seconds, and finally "compromised".

So he ordered the kitchen to prepare another ingredient, but when it came to ginseng, he ordered the kitchen to go to his bedroom to get it.

At this time, Chu Yunfeng could hear an extremely surprised voice coming from the speaker of his mobile phone, and he confirmed it with Wan Lao three times.

Wan Lao scolded the other party angrily: "You can't hear what I said clearly, right? Do you need me to repeat it again?"

The other party did not continue to confirm with Wan Lao, but immediately agreed, and then hung up the phone.

Then it was Chu Yunfeng's turn to be curious. Isn't the ginseng used by Wan Lao very precious?
