Chapter 1282 Breaking into the supply system of the state banquet

Not only are Boss Wu and Lao Wang here tonight, but Xiaoxiao and Ai Ai are also invited. Chu Yunfeng naturally has to take care of his own people.

The intention is also very simple. After all, there will still be more opportunities for Sichuan cuisine to make state banquets in the future. If these high-quality suppliers can enter, this is also a good thing.

Even though the supply is not large, with the name of a state banquet supplier, everyone who hears it will naturally believe in the quality of the ingredients.

So when the president introduced the identity of Minister Jin to Boss Wu and Lao Wang who arrived first, Boss Wu reacted immediately, while Lao Wang seemed a little confused.

I just feel a little guilty when such a big leader comes over.

The kitchen is still making dishes. The twelve dishes tonight are definitely carefully selected. The preparation of this golden chicken tower is very extraordinary.

Even Wu Ma and Master Zhu were watching, and they knew that this dish was absolutely beautiful.

The ingredients are relatively common, mainly chicken breast, pork fat, lean ham and lettuce. Chu Yunfeng first chopped the chicken breast and fat together into meat fillings, then added egg whites and other seasonings, stirred and marinated evenly.

Then the fat meat was made into the shape of copper coins, and then the chicken breast and fat meat were made into a ball and placed on top of the coins.

Finally, put a piece of ham that is also in the shape of a copper coin on top, and finally put the fat side down and put it into the pot for frying.

After it is golden, pick it up and put it on the plate, and finally make the lettuce into a sweet and sour flavor and surround it, which looks very rich and auspicious.

"Beautiful, really extraordinary!"

Master Zhu nodded thoughtfully. The shape of this dish is so beautiful, but the method is a bit too complicated, especially the making of copper coins. It really can't be made without a little bit of craftsmanship.

It is definitely a time-consuming and labor-intensive dish. No wonder it has gradually been lost. Even if there are people who can make it, it is estimated that no restaurant is willing to make such a time-consuming dish.

"What's the next dish? When are you going to make fat intestine bean paste soup?"

Wu Ma began to urge her. She seemed to be very interested in this soup dish.

"I'll cook this dish last, don't worry!"

Chu Yunfeng naturally has his own rhythm, but Wu Ma was a little disappointed after hearing it, which surprised Chu Yunfeng.

"Uh, what's the matter?"

Seeing that Wu's mother was not in the right mood, Chu Yunfeng immediately asked more questions, but Wu's mother waved her hands and said nothing, which made Chu Yunfeng feel a little surprised.

The next preparations continued, pot stickers, bean paste, and dried shredded pork were made one after another. However, this dried shredded pork is actually stir-fried shredded pork, which is somewhat similar to dried tangerine peel beef.

It's just that this dry shredded pork is mainly stir-fried with chili and garlic. The aroma is still very different, but the whole kitchen can smell this special spicy smell.

When doing the Gongbao Waist Mass, Master Zhu actually took out his cell phone, but instead of taking pictures, he turned on the stopwatch.

The oil temperature in the pot was already quite high. The moment Chu Yunfeng threw the marinated kidney slices into the pot, Master Zhu immediately pressed the stopwatch on his phone to start.

One second, two seconds.
It wasn't until the tenth second that Chu Yunfeng added side dishes and Gorgon sauce, and then when the second hand stopped at 18 seconds, he immediately saw Chu Yunfeng start cooking.

The total cooking time is 18 seconds?
This time is indeed unbelievable, but Master Zhu nodded seriously: "Is it really 18 seconds?

I have heard from the chef before that the best time to make this dish is 18 seconds. It is also the dish that tests the most skill, and it is quite difficult to control the heat.

If the firepower is insufficient, the kidney flowers will not be cooked, and the aroma of the side dishes will not be fully stimulated. If it takes a second or two longer, the kidney flowers will become stale.

It seems that you have mastered the heat of this dish just right. I don’t think these two guys can reach this level without half a year. "

Looking at Guo Kui and Hu Yue who looked stunned, Master Zhu said with emotion, which also made them understand how difficult it is to make this dish.

"Oh my god, it's really a bit difficult. If I were to make this dish now, I would either count the seconds in my mind, or set the seconds, but I guess I can't keep up with the speed?
And I'm sure I will be in a hurry and will never be able to add the garnishes and seasonings at the most precise time. "

After Guo Kui thought about it for a while, he came up with a more accurate cognition, and Hu Yue also nodded thoughtfully and said: "I don't think I can grasp the heat well.

Especially for this oil temperature, it is probably a bit difficult to 100% grasp the critical point. I think it will be suspended for half a year. I think I can achieve 80% level in one year! "

Looking at the dish in front of her, Hu Yue seemed to be less confident than Guo Kui. You must know that the two of them are now at a high level of cooking skills. A seemingly simple dish turned out to be so difficult.

Wu Ma felt that the two of them underestimated her too much, so she began to encourage: "You two, don't be led astray by him. His cooking skills have indeed improved too fast, making you both lose confidence." .

Don't compare with him, you will have more confidence if you compare with others. Besides, this dish is actually not as difficult as you think, and it will be fine if you practice more.

You two are pretty good at controlling the heat. Practice more when you have time. Trust yourself! "

After hearing Wu Ma's encouragement, Guo Kui and Hu Yue were both moved. Although they were a little stunned at first, they didn't expect Wu Ma to encourage them.

Usually Wu Ma doesn't encourage people often, but it's not easy to get her approval.

Chu Yunfeng smiled, patted the two of them on the shoulders and said: "Come on, you'll be fine, and we have to enter the kitchen of the state banquet together this time, so we can't lose the face of the Sichuan chef.

You are my right-hand man. We have not been afraid of anyone if we work together. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so don’t let your guard down! "

The chef at the state banquet!
When Hu Yue and Guo Kui thought about being able to enter that legendary place, they were naturally yearning for it, but they were more worried. After all, there were so many great gods there, so their self-confidence was still affected.

But after Chu Yunfeng's encouragement, the two of them laughed at themselves, and their self-confidence naturally recovered.

Soon, all eleven dishes were ready, leaving only the last dish - fat intestine bean paste soup!

Chu Yunfeng quietly looked at Wu Ma's eyes, and found that she showed a very soft look of memory, as if she remembered something, which made him feel a little puzzled.

This soup actually uses peas instead of red beans, and peas are also a very unique bean in Sichuan. Even the canned roasted pork that Chu Yunfeng made before used it.

The fangs of peas are generally called pea tips. They are a very delicious green vegetable in winter. They are very nice whether eating noodles or cooking with them.

In order to save time for this dish, Chu Yunfeng adopted an innovative method. First, he stewing the sausage for a while, and the peas were stewed separately for a while.

So at this time, cut the white-braised pork intestines into small pieces, add them to the pea soup that is still simmering, add a little stock, and let them blend for 5 minutes.

At this time, the peas have been stewed relatively soft, so the bean paste of the peas has been completely wrapped in the boiling hot soup. The bean paste gradually shuttles through the fat intestines and adheres to it.

The soup became golden with the help of peas. When it was about to start, Chu Yunfeng added a handful of pea tips, which immediately imprinted a touch of spring color into it, which was a finishing touch.

Only then did Wu Ma sigh with emotion: "Although this method is different from what the master made back then, the taste and quality are similar. Give me a dip later, I have to taste it!"

Chu Yunfeng nodded thoughtfully, only then did he realize that this dish inspired Wu Ma's memories of learning how to cook. By the way, there was also his own mother and mother-in-law. They didn't know that they saw this dish Will the food react as well?
All twelve dishes were ready, and Guo Kui and Hu Yue each cooked two more dishes, making a total of sixteen dishes.

Guo Kui made Kung Pao Chicken and Snowflake Chicken Chowder, while Hu Yue made Chicken Bean Curd and Mapo Tofu. This was also a good opportunity for the two of them to show off their cooking skills.

After all, they were about to go to the kitchen for the state banquet, so it would be beneficial to let Minister Jin know the strength of the two of them in advance.

In the future, maybe the two of them will be able to serve as master chefs at state banquets. By then, won’t the team of Sichuan cuisine chefs be even bigger?
Chu Dingtian also asked for leave. There were still two days before the wedding, so he naturally had to rush back, so he naturally caught up with tonight's banquet.

The dish that Xiaoxiao and Ai Ai actually wanted to eat the most was twice-cooked pork. This dish was definitely something they would never tire of eating, but they were too embarrassed to speak when they saw Chu Yunfeng was so busy.

But there are so many delicious foods on this table, so I forgot this idea when I was looking for it.

There were two tables of people sitting in the private room tonight. At the main table were Minister Jin, Chu Dingtian, the two presidents, Xia Tong, Han Bingbing, Wu Ma, Boss Wu, Brother Wang, plus Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing. And pleasant.

At the other table were the four of Bell, Guo Kui, Hu Yue, Hao Minming, Li Keke, Chu Yue, Xiaoxiao and Ai Ai. Hao Minming and Li Keke couldn't leave, but Chu Yunfeng Strongly urge them to come over.

I still need to know more about the situation of the museum, and I will listen to the reports of the two of them later.

When the last dish was served, Chu Yunfeng clearly noticed that his mother and Han Bingbing were muttering something, and then naturally he pulled Wu's mother together to talk.

"Come on, thank Xiao Chu and Xiao Li for their warm hospitality today, and also wish them a happy marriage in advance. Let's have a drink!"

When Brother Wang opened the wine, Minister Jin was completely shocked. Such a color and aroma of wine were simply unheard of, so he couldn't hold back and started immediately.

As soon as everyone responded, in order to show his "sincerity", Minister Jin drank all the golden wine in the cup as quickly as possible.

Then he couldn't help but close his eyes and experience it, and then he said with emotion: "It is indeed extraordinary!
I had heard Lao Hou mention this before, but I didn't expect it to be even worse. I regretted it a little. I should have gone to Lao Hou's house earlier to have a drink! "

Haha~!

Minister Jin’s extremely regretful look immediately made everyone laugh, while President Hou quickly stopped him and said: “Don’t worry, I only have two bottles at home, and I still keep them for collection.

You don't have to say that you are here, Lao Baigan is enough! "

The "generous" President Hou made Minister Jin stunned for a moment. He immediately said doubtfully: "Are you going to welcome me? This is the rhythm that will drive me to death!"

Haha~!

Everyone in the private room laughed again. After Minister Jin joked, he quickly urged: "Come on, come on, everyone, use your chopsticks and have a good taste of these dishes."

With delicious food in front of them, everyone couldn't help it, and everyone's first choice was the same, which was shredded radish cake.

This kind of big puff pastry is best eaten when it's hot. Many people are knowledgeable about it. Even those who don't know much about it will immediately follow suit when they see others doing it.

"Oh my god, isn't this delicious?"

Xiaoxiao immediately praised it, and then Ai Ai also said in surprise: "It's incredible, this is stuffed with radish. I never thought that stuffing made of shredded radish would be so delicious!"

"delicious!"

"This spicy pepper flavor is just like the soul. Do you have any more? How about a few more?"

Chu Dingtian was already hungry, and he would eat at least three meals in normal times, and northerners like to eat pasta, so he immediately looked at Chu Yunfeng.

I thought it was just a cake, and Chu Yunfeng should have made a lot of it, but who knew that he just spread his hands and said, "No, that's all for today. If you want to eat, I'll make it for you tomorrow."

Uh~!

Chu Dingtian shook his head in astonishment. This disappointment quickly affected everyone, because everyone felt that there was not enough food!

However, there are still many delicious dishes, especially the exquisite sea cucumber in front of everyone looks very good. This is a first-class sea cucumber made by Chu Yunfeng, and each portion only has one sea cucumber.

There was only a shallow layer of golden soup, but the sea cucumber looked a little "fat", so everyone took a bite immediately and discovered the secret.

It turns out that there is something in the belly of the sea cucumber. Minister Jin saw with his own eyes the ingredients prepared by Chu Yunfeng. The belly of the sea cucumber was stuffed with aniseed.

The chicken breasts are added with fat, minced and then mixed with egg whites. This is not even done. The crab roe and slid green shrimps are also cut into soybean-sized pieces.

Finally, peas are added and stirred together until the chicken mince is evenly mixed, then stuffed into the belly of the sea cucumber for steaming, and finally the stock sauce is used to divide it into pieces. It looks very simple on the outside, but in fact, you will know this after eating it. It's a Kung Fu dish.

After tasting the dish, Chu Yunfeng slowly began to open up the topic: "Minister, should we change the tableware we use this time?"

Chu Yunfeng's words immediately made Minister Jin react. Most of the tableware in the kitchen of this state banquet were of royal standard, and most of them were golden and bright.

The dinner plates of Sichuan cuisine generally use more blue and white dishes. If you use this kind of royal dinner plate to serve Sichuan cuisine, then the charm of Sichuan cuisine cannot be fully expressed.

There is even a sense of disobedience, so this time it makes Minister Jin a little anxious: "Don't tell me why I forgot about this?

But it’s too late to order now. Is there anything you can do? "

Since Chu Yunfeng mentioned this matter, he was naturally prepared, so he immediately smiled and said: "I have customized a lot before, why don't I just take it and use it this time."

When restoring the dishes, Chu Yunfeng had already designed the plates for each dish, especially the colors and flowers of the plates.

Every time he designed a design, Chu Yunfeng would send it to JDZ. This was all a precaution, but he didn’t expect it to be actually used.

This immediately made Minister Jin praise him: "Okay, we have prepared for a rainy day. This is a good job, but we have to pay for this batch of things. Is that okay?"

Chu Yunfeng nodded naturally, and then moved on to the next topic: "Minister, what do you think of this wine?"

Minister Jin smiled silently in his heart, he is indeed here. It seems that this little guy wants to break into the supply system of the state banquet.
