Chapter 1329 Sichuan Cuisine Reestablishes Its Position
"Hey, isn't this Lao Liu? Look at what time it is. Didn't we agree to meet at 11 o'clock? I'm almost ready. It seems like your inspection team hasn't arrived yet?"

Teasing, naked teasing, Minister Liu was about to reply with a few words, but Minister Jin continued to ask: "By the way, did you have breakfast today? Did you eat well?"

Let me go, this is simply a pot that cannot be opened. The depressed depression and aggrievedness in Minister Liu's heart burst out instantly: "Hey, Lao Jin, it seems that you did this on purpose!

You clearly know that this aroma will affect your appetite, but you didn't even remind me?Are you a little too sinister?
Also, you clearly knew that the traffic situation today was so complicated, but you didn't even say hello in advance. You just wanted to make me laugh, right?
"

Minister Liu complained for a long time, and Minister Jin listened patiently to his complaint with a faint smile on his face, which made Minister Liu even more depressed.

"Have you finished talking?" After seeing that Minister Liu was so depressed that he could not speak after complaining for a long time, the teasing taste on Minister Jin's face became more obvious, "Then it's my turn, right?"

Minister Jin coughed heavily and said: "I haven't complained about you yet. I heard that you were the one who made the biggest objection at the last meeting. Since you don't believe in the strength of our chefs, then no matter how much I say, you will believe me." ?

This does not allow you to experience it for yourself. You thought our chef could not meet the requirements. How is it now? Do you know that our master Chu is amazing?
Okay, okay, don't look like you've been wronged, this dish is almost ready, tell me if you want to try it, or I won't leave any for you later! "

hiss~!

You actually play like this?
Minister Liu was choked instantly, and he couldn't say what he had accumulated so much. Naturally, he came here so quickly with a sense of anxiety.

The first thing is that I can't be late. The second thing is that I want to experience the extraordinaryness of this dish in the shortest possible time. The fragrance is so invincible, how can I not be curious?

This momentum cannot be lost. Just when Minister Liu was about to reply, a breathless shout came from behind.

"Here, here, right here!"

"Huh, finally, finally, yes, here, here."

"Minister Jin, what's going on?"

At this time, more than twenty people rushed over. Minister Jin looked back and saw, good guys, it turned out that they were all people who came for the assessment today. When everyone saw the wine jar at the scene, they suddenly became uneasy.

"Haha, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. This dish is not ready yet, but the other dishes are almost ready. How about we go to the lobby and wait for a while?"

When everyone rushed to ask questions about various situations, Minister Jin didn't know who to answer in the confusion, so he could only suggest that we go to the venue to talk.

But everyone didn't do it. It took a lot of effort to come from such a far away place. If you don't take a closer look at this dish that is "making a big fuss" in the capital, it will definitely not be satisfying, so the answers are naturally different.

"It's not time yet, don't worry, don't worry!"

"I'll take a good look at the scene first, and then I'll talk about it. I've had enough of this trip, so I need to take a break first!"

"Look first, look first!"

Seeing that everyone was so interested, Minister Jin didn't say much. He already knew in his heart that today's matter was basically fine.

After that, people continued to come. Minister Jin greeted Minister Liu and prepared to leave. He went to the back kitchen to see how Chu Yunfeng's dishes were doing.

But after just two steps, Minister Liu followed immediately and said with a smile: "Let's go, let me go in with you and take a look."

Seeing Minister Liu with an expectant look on his face, Minister Jin flattened his mouth, shook his head helplessly, quickly passed through the rich aroma area, and plunged into the kitchen.

The visibility in the kitchen at this time is obviously much better than before, but the fragrance lingers for a long time. Apart from the four master chefs cooking here, the most dazzling one is Chu Yunfeng.

There was no one around where he was at this time, but he could see from a distance that the fires of three stoves were lit at the same time, and there were also three pots on them at the same time.

I go!

Minister Liu's eyes widened immediately and he looked over in disbelief.

The master chefs in the back kitchen have a pot in hand, and they are responsible for the usual maintenance. I have never heard of anyone who can make an extra pot. At this time, Chu Yunfeng is constantly moving in front of the three stoves, obviously at the same time. Make three dishes.

Minister Jin chuckled and said: "You must be dumbfounded, this is the true strength of our Master Chu, oh no, I don't think I have seen his true strength before.

However, operating three pots at the same time doesn't seem to be too stressful for him. Let's go and have a look! "

When I followed Minister Jin and walked over, I could already see two dishes placed on the big table here, one of which was very delicately presented.

After glancing at it, Minister Liu recognized that this was a famous Sichuan dish - white meat with mashed garlic. The red oil was particularly rosy. The meat was made into a meat roll shape and placed in layers on the plate. It was very It has a certain artistic conception.

In particular, one could imagine that when the red oil was poured down from top to bottom, it would be the sublimation of the soul. Just by looking at it, Minister Liu felt his saliva dripping down.

There is also a very beautiful and exquisite lacquer box, which is painted with dragons and phoenixes that look like gold lacquer, and the shape is extremely graceful.

The lacquer box is covered with a lid. I don't know what it is for, and I don't know if there are any dishes in it, so I don't know the name of this dish.

Boom. Boom. Boom.
After walking in, we can clearly see how awesome Chu Yunfeng's skills are. The dishes in the three-pot pot are cooked by changing hands from time to time.

The other three stoves also turned on the fire in turn. The roaring sound of the fierce stove was heard, and the domestic dishes were tumbling back and forth, which was dizzying.

"What is this?" After getting closer and looking at the ingredients in the pot, Minister Liu roughly recognized that they were making dishes such as shredded pork. The specifics were unclear.

However, there was a huge casserole placed on the integrated stove not far away, which caught my attention. Although there was the aroma of meat in the jar, the smell revealed in this casserole was able to break through?
Yes, you can obviously smell the fragrance coming from this casserole, which is somewhat different from the taste of the meat in the jar. It has a rich bean fragrance, which is amazing.

Out of the pot!

The dish in the first pot at Chu Yunfeng's side had already come out. Minister Jin immediately stepped forward to check and found out that it was salt-fried pork!
Without disturbing Chu Yunfeng, Minister Jin patiently stayed where he was and continued to wait, while Minister Liu turned aside and ran to look at the dish made in a casserole, "splashing" the aroma towards his nose with his hands.

The second dish also came out, and Minister Jin nodded with satisfaction. It was obviously dried shredded pork. I had tasted this dish when I was in Chengdu, and it tasted quite extraordinary.

Just a piece of shredded pork can make you drink two taels of wine. This is no exaggeration at all. The dry aroma of this dish is very rich, and it is definitely a holy food to go with wine.

For the third dish, Chu Yunfeng saw a crackling sound in the pot. After the ingredients in the plate were poured down, the pot was cooked in less than 20 seconds, and an extremely fragrant smell passed through. Is it twice-cooked pork?

The three dishes were ready soon, Chu Yunfeng was about to wash the pot, turned around and saw Minister Jin, so he said with a smile: "Minister, the dishes can be served one after another, the steamed dishes are basically ready .

I can also serve other dishes that need to be processed one after another. The assessment team should be here, right? "

Seeing the strong confidence on Chu Yunfeng's face, Minister Jin was also in a very good mood, nodded and said: "It may take a while for everyone to arrive, but it's okay, their leader has arrived.

Come on, let me introduce to you. This is the leader of this assessment team, Minister Liu. He is the first to come here, which shows that Minister Liu attaches great importance to us.

So the food needs to be served a little faster. It’s already done, right? It’s almost time, so I’ll let them serve it now! "

Huh~?

There seems to be something in Minister Kim’s words, right?

Chu Yunfeng thought about it for a while. It seemed that Minister Jin was deliberately digging a hole. Didn't he say that he would help him buy some time before? Why was he in a hurry to serve the food now?
Sure enough, I expected it well, when Minister Liu heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Wait, who said that the food will be served now?

Our assessment group hasn’t all arrived yet, so it won’t be too late to wait until they are all here!
You are Xiao Chu, right? You are indeed a young hero. Your cooking skills are incredible. I finally got to see them today. Let’s not be in a hurry with this dish, cook it slowly, slowly! "

Do it slowly?
Chu Yunfeng looked at Minister Liu who was smiling at him, and he was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that this matter could be solved so easily. It seemed that Minister Jin had profound skills.

Before he could agree, Minister Jin immediately rushed to say: "Old Liu, this is not possible. Didn't you see that the hot dishes are ready?
The time previously set was 12 o'clock sharp, which only takes about ten minutes. Why can't the food be served immediately?

If the dishes are cold and this affects the evaluation, can you bear this responsibility? "

So that's it, Chu Yunfeng understood immediately. It seemed that the aroma of the jar of meat had caused the congestion. It was estimated that there were still many members of the jury on the way.

Naturally, it was difficult to officially start the review because there were not all the people present. No wonder Minister Jin was so cautious now.

It seems that everything is under the control of Minister Kim, so he will stop talking and watch how Minister Kim "performs!"

Naturally, Minister Liu would not be fooled by Minister Jin, and he immediately made it clear: "Don't do this with me, are you deliberately digging a hole for me?
It’s not like you don’t know about this special situation today. It’s extenuating, okay?

I still don’t believe you just pushed it. Will the higher-ups strictly enforce it?Don’t you see how the traffic in Beijing is now a mess?

Wait a moment, wait a moment, everyone will be almost there soon! "

Having said this, Minister Jin coughed twice and asked Chu Yunfeng with a hint of negotiation: "How about we do it slower and wait a little longer?"

Chu Yunfeng naturally replied politely: "That's no problem, you have the final say when the food will be served!"

After speaking, Chu Yunfeng started to deal with the few traditional Sichuan dishes. These traditional Sichuan dishes were prepared to be served last, so the follow-up work took a lot of time.

The fairy duck is already steaming, and the chicken with snowflakes is a hot dish that must be stir-fried, so it is put at the end. The bamboo shoots and liver paste soup can start to make the liver juice.

The cold dishes at Jiuse Zanhe are also pickled and have a lot of flavor, so it’s time to start putting them on the plate!

But before that, Chu Yunfeng got out of the kitchen and came to the wine jar at the entrance.

As soon as I walked into the cordon, I heard people outside talking about each other, probably discussing whether I was the chef being tested today.

Smiling at the members of the assessment team, Chu Yunfeng began to bring down the wine jar. The time had finally come.

"" After a period of time, all the ingredients blended together with their fragrance. If it were normal cooking, Chu Yunfeng would have stopped the fire first.

Wait for the aroma to dissipate for a while and the wine jar to cool down a bit before putting it down.

However, time was urgent today. Chu Yunfeng took a deep breath, held it in, put on his gloves and took off the wine jar. This action naturally aroused everyone's discussion.

Today's wine jar plus the ingredients inside was quite heavy, probably weighing two to three hundred kilograms. Chu Yunfeng plunged down and easily took down the wine jar.

"I'll go, this is really strong!"

"That's awesome. Have you practiced this before?"

"This jar is not light. It takes a lot of effort for two heads to lift it. Did he get it off by himself?"

Amid everyone's surprise, Chu Yunfeng directly hugged the huge wine jar, slowly moved it slightly above the ground, and slowly moved into the back kitchen.

"Why did you move in?"

After seeing this scene, Minister Liu also blinked and asked Minister Jin in puzzlement, and immediately got feedback: "This is the last step, so watch carefully!"

last step?
Chu Yunfeng opened the lid of the wine jar, and immediately saw a burst of thick smoke rising into the sky. Then he poured out all the contents of the wine jar and filtered it.

Then begin to remove the bones from the pork knuckles, chicken shanks and duck thighs, place a few mushrooms on the bottom of the bowl, and then stack the boneless pork knuckles, chicken shanks, duck thighs and pork belly in it.

Then he brought over the quail eggs and large meatballs that had been fried before, and then added the large meatballs, ham slices, scallops, tiger skin quail eggs, big golden hooks and winter bamboo shoots into them. After stacking them neatly, he set the bowl.

Finally, pour the original juice from the jar into it, just slightly lower than the edge of the bowl. Finally, seal it with plastic wrap, and then start steaming it.

"Want to steam again?"

Minister Liu was dumbfounded. He thought that Chu Yunfeng would just pour the dishes out of the wine jar and put them on the plate, but he didn't expect that there was another step.

Minister Jin laughed and said: "Don't you know? This is what makes this dish extraordinary. You think it is already very good, but it still needs to be sublimated.

Are you underestimating other people’s Sichuan cuisine?

Take a good look at it, today's dishes will give you, oh no, a new understanding of Sichuan cuisine, oh no, knowledge.

Sichuan cuisine has gone astray over the years, but fortunately, someone has brought it back. Remember today, this should be the day when Sichuan cuisine returns to the capital.

After today, Sichuan cuisine will definitely establish its position among the eight major cuisines. As for whether it is the first, it depends on your opinion! "

Minister Jin’s words made Minister Liu suddenly realize, is this Sichuan cuisine really so amazing?

I was shocked one after another. Before I could recover, I received a call from outside, saying that everyone was here and asked if the assessment could start?
