Chapter 1332 The stepping stone to Sichuan cuisine
Hearing the noise coming from behind, Minister Jin immediately stopped, turned his head and took a look, then immediately stretched out his hand to stop: "Stop, don't come over here!"

hiss~!

Section Chief Yu was stunned when he was holding this dish. The attitude of a group of people rushing over just now was really impactful. What do you want to do?

"Old Liu, maintain order!"

Minister Jin frowned and shouted at Minister Liu. The big leader was still watching. How come everyone was not reserved at all?
Want to be reserved?
It's not impossible, but the key is that as soon as Section Chief Yu entered the dish, the special aroma spread over, which was able to arouse everyone's appetite.

In particular, this dish has such a hint of wine aroma that you can't help but smell it. The key is that the wine aroma is very special, not like ordinary white wine or rice wine.

After Minister Liu coughed twice, he didn't say anything. Naturally, everyone understood that he was really too anxious just now, so they hurried back.

The big leader nodded and smiled, but didn't say anything. The main reason was that the aroma made him a little uncontrollable. What kind of dish was it? It seemed to be twice-cooked pork, but it seemed to have some big differences.

"Lao Yu, why are you serving the same dish again?"

It’s enough to compare the ingredients of ordinary pork and Chenghua pig twice, but now the third one is served. Is it possible that there are other types of pigs?

Minister Jin's doubts were not answered, and Section Chief Yu replied with a hint of depression: "I don't know the specifics. Xiao Chu said that I would send it over for everyone to try first, and I will tell you later when the next batch of dishes is served. I!"

This little Chu
Minister Jin pondered for a moment, shook his head and asked Section Chief Yu to quickly portion out this dish, and then went to the kitchen to seize the time to ask, while continuing to serve the dishes.

When it was time to share the dishes, Section Chief Yu started to look around. After searching for a long time, he didn't find what he wanted to see.

So he frowned and asked: "Minister, didn't you just agree to leave a portion for me? Where are the shredded pork and twice-cooked pork?"

It was okay not to ask, but when asked, Minister Wang showed a look of embarrassment on his face: "Hey, I'm really sorry, everyone tasted it too quickly just now, and I didn't even have time to start.

Really, I only tasted one piece, and by the time I wanted to use my chopsticks again, it was already gone! "

???

Section Chief Yu blinked at Minister Wang with a "shocked" face. He had sworn to it just now, but why did he turn around like this?
"Don't worry, I will definitely leave it for you this time. I will do what I say!"

Minister Wang nodded again, but Section Chief Yu always felt that that was not the case. If everyone moves their chopsticks too fast, what should we do if we can't keep them?

However, there seemed to be no better way. Section Chief Yu could only give the instructions again and quickly went to the kitchen.

As soon as the twice-cooked pork was served, no one could hold it any longer. The chopsticks moved very fast, and even Minister Jin didn't have time to taste it, and the meat slices were gone.

hiss~!

What's happening here?
Everyone seems to be smarter this time?
Many people picked up two or even three pieces of meat with one chopstick. Naturally, a reserved person like Minister Jin couldn't react in time.

When he came back to his senses, there was no trace of the meat slices.

Not to mention Minister Wang, not only did he not get a piece to try, but he also couldn't save one for Chief Yu.

This.
Don't talk about martial arts!
No way, who makes this dish so attractive to everyone?

A strong fragrance wafted throughout the venue, as well as everyone's unstinting admiration.

"Oh my god, how did you make this and taste even better than the previous two?"

"It's incredible. I'm sure the meat quality used in this dish is the same as the previous one, but why does the flavor go up a notch?"

"It's so delicious. It's really delicious. I've never eaten such delicious twice-cooked pork. Is this real Sichuan cuisine?"

"It's over, it's over. All the twice-cooked pork that I have eaten for so many years is fake. Are the restaurants in this capital too deceptive?"

The dish was quickly finished tasting. Without saying a word, everyone picked up their phones and started to prepare for scoring. However, they suddenly discovered a problem. There was no scoring block for the third dish of twice-cooked pork in the judging system. What was going on?
At this time, the big leader asked with a smile: "Let me guess, this first dish should use the meat that the kitchen usually uses, right?
The second and third times used more special pork. This should be a test you want to do, right?
In addition, this third dish should be an upgraded version of twice-cooked pork, which is an ancient method of Sichuan cuisine. Is my guess correct? "

The big leader is the big leader, and these guesses turned out to be very close. Minister Jin nodded in admiration and replied: "That's absolutely correct. There are indeed ingredients that need to be evaluated this time.

Let me announce the answer directly. The first dish was indeed made with the ingredients we usually purchase, while the second dish was made from pig breeds unique to the Rongcheng area.

Chenghua pig!
There were only about a hundred Chenghua pigs left more than half a year ago, and they were almost extinct. Fortunately, Xiao Chu and the others re-raised this population.

However, the current quantity is still not too much. This time I sent one, which is a stepping stone. At the same time, we also have a look at the dishes made with the same method. How big is the gap? "

That's it!
Only then did everyone understand, and they all lamented that the pig breed was different, and there was such a big gap in the taste and texture of the dishes produced.

The big leader nodded thoughtfully at this time and said with approval: "I had heard of this Chenghua pig back then, but I didn't know it was almost extinct!
By the way, how is this twice-cooked pork dish served at the end made and what is its name? "

"Dry-steamed twice-cooked pork!" As soon as Minister Jin said the name of this dish, the leader suddenly understood.

"Oops, my memory reminds me that I tasted it once back then, but I tasted less of it that time, so I didn't have much of a taste.

At that time, I heard that the preparation of this dish was very different from the traditional way. Now it seems that the taste is really different.

Okay, okay, this Sichuan cuisine is indeed very outstanding. Come on, what other dishes are there? "

What’s next?

Minister Jin looked at the door. Section Chief Yu and his people had already come in one after another. Judging from the state of these dishes, they should all be steamed vegetables.

There is a hint of steam rising from the dishes, which must have just been taken out of the steamer.

The senior leader immediately became interested. When he saw Section Chief Yu and the others placing these six dishes on the opposite side, he quickly walked over to check them out in advance.

Minister Jin and Minister Liu accompanied them and walked over. The others also wanted to follow and have a look at the excitement. However, they were reminded to pay attention to the order of the venue just now, so everyone did not move and raised their necks to look into the distance.

"Wait, don't tell me yet, let me guess the names of these dishes!"

Seeing these six dishes with rich aroma, the leader eagerly pointed at the first dish and said: "This dish is easier to identify. It should be steamed pork with rice flour, right?"

Minister Jin smiled and nodded, and then continued to hear the leader guess the second dish: "This one looks like a bowl in Sichuan cuisine. It should be cooked white, right?"

Surprisingly, Minister Jin shook his head and immediately responded: "This dish looks like Shao Bai, but it is actually a Hakka dish called braised pork with plum vegetables.

There are also many Hakka people in Sichuan. They like pickled plum vegetables and can also make many specialties. "

After Minister Jin's reminder, the senior leader nodded thoughtfully, and then looked at the last dish, which looked somewhat similar to the braised pork with pickled vegetables.

Then he pointed to the last dish and said: "Haha, I understand, then this dish is cooked white, right?"

Minister Jin continued to nod, and the senior leader continued to point to the next few dishes and guessed: "This one seems to be called pork with sand, right?
This dish is wrapped in lotus leaves, so it’s probably called steamed pork with lotus leaves, right?
There is also such a big elbow in this dish. If I read it correctly, it should be Dongpo elbow, right? "

The big leader guessed three dishes in a row, and Minister Jin nodded. It seemed to be very good. However, when it came to the last dish, the big leader couldn't figure it out, so he could only ask Minister Jin.

This dish is pot-roasted pork, an old Sichuan dish newly restored by Xiao Chu. It uses old peas unique to Sichuan. The stewed taste is very distinctive. You will know it after you taste it.

Whoo~!

Finally I can taste it!

After the dishes were divided and placed on the table, everyone couldn't wait to try them. There is no doubt that the praises never stopped.

But this time, Section Chief Yu still looked around for the steamed twice-cooked pork that Minister Wang promised to leave for him, but after looking around for a long time, he couldn't find even a shadow.

Have you been fooled again?

Minister Wang saw that Chief Yu's face changed too complicatedly, and quickly explained: "You can't blame me this time, I didn't even taste it myself!
It’s okay, don’t worry, I will definitely leave it for you this time! "

Faced with Minister Wang's statement, Section Chief Yu no longer believed it this time, and suddenly replied with a smile: "Forget it, forget it, don't go to such trouble, if you can't keep it, you can't keep it."

After saying that, he hurriedly walked to the kitchen. There were still a lot of dishes coming, so he needed to speed up the serving.

Huh~?

Minister Wang found that this situation was a bit abnormal. How could he not be allowed to stay?

Looking at the departing figure of Section Chief Yu, Minister Wang suddenly patted his forehead and thought to himself, good guy, the moon comes first when you are near the water. As long as you go to the kitchen, where else do you need to stay?
No, I have to go to the kitchen to serve food, wait for me.
All the six dishes this time received unanimous praise from everyone. Each dish has a unique experience. Dishes like Shao Bai have a lot of fat, but everyone tastes not greasy at all.

And after tasting these steamed dishes, I rinsed my mouth with some clear soup from a can of roasted pork, and I immediately felt extremely refreshed.

It seems that Chu Yunfeng is really careful about the combination of dishes?

Next, the dishes continued to be served, including cold pork tongue, spicy and sour pork elbow, garlic white meat, barbecued pork, hand-shredded pork heart, braised pork intestines and pork belly and mung bean ear root soup.

Many people gave up after seeing the bright red color of minced garlic meat, but who could resist it after smelling the aroma of red oil?

Especially when the meat slices are made into meat rolls, and there is something soft on top that looks like a bow, which is very attractive against the red oil.

I thought it was very spicy, but after tasting it, I realized that it was only averagely spicy, and it had a slightly sweet and sour taste, which was simply addictive.

There is an unstoppable rhythm when it comes to eating. Unfortunately, the portion is too small, and it is gone after one bite.
Next, the dishes continue, including dried tangerine peel pork, pine nut pork, crispy rice pork slices, pot sticker kidney slices, spinach dumplings and white lungs, white oil pork liver, chopped green onion liver slices, fish-flavored shredded pork, southern braised pork, radish in pot, hibiscus chowder , soft fried tripe, wild cabbage lion head and other dishes are available one by one.

It was dazzling to see, and no one thought that Sichuan cuisine could have so many dishes without chili peppers, and every dish was so delicious.

In addition, after tasting all the more than thirty dishes, everyone seemed to feel that something was wrong, but at the moment they couldn't explain it.

But the big leader reacted and began to exclaim: "I mean, something is wrong. It seems that all the dishes we tasted just now are made of pork, right?

Not a single dish uses other meat, and the same goes for the offal. Isn’t this a whole pig feast? "

Regarding the acumen of the great leader, Minister Jin immediately gave a thumbs up and responded with a smile: "The leader is still great, I can see the clues right away.

This is indeed the case. Today, Xiao Chu made a whole pig feast. All the ingredients used later were Chenghua pigs. There were 36 dishes in total.

If it were not limited by time and the quantity of ingredients, he would probably be able to make 108 dishes for this whole pig feast. How about this, is this Sichuan cuisine good? "

But - still - okay?

This is simply amazing. Not only have you never seen many of the dishes, but this is the first time you have tasted these complex flavors. It is much richer than the usual sweet or salty flavors.

Minister Liu said with emotion at this time: "Although the dishes have not been served yet, I have already been conquered by Sichuan cuisine. It seems that this Sichuan cuisine is full of dishes and flavors. I think it is really well-deserved!"

"Yes, yes, that's true. Sichuan cuisine really deserves this praise!"

"This Sichuan cuisine has so many dishes, why did everyone misunderstand it so deeply before? I thought Sichuan cuisine only cooks spicy dishes!"

"Haha, I just took photos of all these dishes. After I posted them to Moments, everyone was confused. They guessed all kinds of cuisines, but no one guessed it was Sichuan cuisine!"

Everyone's reaction was naturally no surprise to Minister Jin. Ever since he went to Rongcheng and tasted Chu Yunfeng's dishes, how could he not understand the heritage of Sichuan cuisine?

Especially the so-called more than 500 dishes, Minister Jin is 100% sure that this is only a part. Can Mr. Li and Chu Yunfeng easily name [-] dishes?

If they didn't know more than [-] dishes, or even [-], [-], [-] or [-] dishes, would they dare to boast about Haikou?

So I was naturally quite calm, but the leader asked with interest: "Now that the whole pig feast is over, what will be served next?"

Next words.
Minister Jin was not sure about the order in which Chu Yunfeng served the dishes. From the beginning, Chu Yunfeng did not follow common sense. Just when he was hesitating, Section Chief Yu came in with his people. As soon as he came in, everyone immediately I was shocked.

What kind of dish is this? Why is it served in a lacquer box?
