gourmet food

Chapter 1374 Is this food delicious?
"It's really hydrangea dried scallops. You actually made two dishes. Which one did you improve?"

Peng Yue's curiosity resonated with everyone. The two dishes on the table both looked very delicate, but the cooking methods were obviously different.

One looks very crispy, and the other is obviously cooked, the crispy part on the outside has softened, but the appearance is still not cheap.

Although it doesn't have the messy hydrangea flavor after it softens, it is still a restrained hydrangea, but it is not so ostentatious.

“Try them first and see which one tastes better!”

Chu Yunfeng didn't explain or tell them that these two dishes were actually improved versions. He just wanted to see what judgments people would make without knowing.

How can you not be positive when you have delicious food?

Beibei immediately took out a dinner plate, picked up her chopsticks and put an hydrangea on each dish on the plate. However, even though she was impatient, she still took a closer look at the appearance of the hydrangea.

First, I understood the general method of making it, then I smelled it beautifully, and then started to poke it with chopsticks, as if I wanted to see the connotation of this dish.

Others naturally took action quickly. Peng Yue was not to be outdone and started very quickly, but he would not take a closer look like Bebe.

Taste it first!
The first one I chose was the one that looked more restrained. After taking this bite, I blinked my eyes immediately.

it is tasty!
Not to mention the broth, it is definitely specially prepared. The aroma of the scallops on the outside and the fresh flavor of the shrimp are very prominent, but the even more amazing thing is at the back.

That's the meatball wrapped inside. I thought the meatball was soft, but I didn't expect that it was just a little soft on the outside, but there was a crispy shell on the inside?
Is this stuffing within stuffing?
This is a bit difficult, because the hydrangea has been boiled. If it is not protected by an outer shell, the water will definitely become soft after it enters.

And if you want to keep this crispy shell, controlling the heat is also extremely critical, so the deceptive feeling on the outer layer gives people more surprises.

“It’s delicious, it’s really delicious, and it certainly lives up to its reputation!”

Peng Yue immediately praised it, but there was another crispy hydrangea that he had not tasted, so he was not sure which dish was improved.

Wu Junjie likes this dish even more, because first of all, from the taste point of view, this dish has a touch of Cantonese style, not only because it is not spicy, but also because the ingredients contain seafood.

So after just one taste, he immediately gave a thumbs up: "It's delicious. I want to learn this dish too. Can you teach me!"

This attitude was obviously very modest, it was rare for Wu Junjie to open his mouth and directly wanted to learn how to cook, which made Song Shaochen and the others very excited.

No one would dislike the fact that they know how to cook too many dishes. In fact, isn’t the most important thing about learning to cook more dishes?
Chu Yunfeng also said before that this internal training will teach everyone many dishes, so is this dish included in it?
Unfortunately, Chu Yunfeng shook his head and said: "This dish is not good at the moment. Don't think about any palace dishes. There is no problem with other dishes!"

Whoo~!

Many people took a long breath, obviously feeling a little regretful, but Peng Yue didn't care much and started trying another hydrangea.

Ka Ka Ka ~!

As soon as the crisp sound sounded, Peng Yue felt a little confused. If the outside is crispy and the inside is crispy, wouldn't the texture be repeated?
But what surprised him again was that when he bit into it, he suddenly found that the meatballs inside were soft, and his eyes blinked even faster.

hiss~!

The two dishes are made in opposite ways. Isn’t this technique a bit too unique?
If the outside is crispy, the inside will be soft, and if the inside is soft, the outside will be crispy. Anyway, if the tastes meet each other, it will have a sense of hierarchy.

Needless to say, the taste of the second type of hydrangea is also very delicious, but the problem is that these two taste styles are very delicious.

No matter which one it is, everyone likes it very much, but which one has been improved by Chu Yunfeng?
After seeing everyone's praise again, Chu Yunfeng started to try it himself. Indeed, in line with everyone's feedback, Chu Yunfeng also thought that the taste of these two dishes was very good.

The staggered taste of the dish really gives this dish a very different experience, and while the taste remains the same, it makes people feel a bit incredible.

Then Chu Yunfeng immediately asked: "How's it going? Have you guessed which dish was improved?"

Uh~!

Everyone hesitated when looking at these two dishes, but Beibei made a judgment early on and was the first to reply: "This cooked dish should be improved.

Don't ask me why I know this, this is a woman's intuition, it's so accurate! "

After showing off her intuition, Beibei immediately bumped Ren Tingting with her elbow, and began to urge her: "Tingting, tell me about your intuition!"

Uh~!

Song Shaochen and the other men were speechless for a moment. A woman's intuition?

How to evaluate this matter?
Ren Tingting was a little moved by Beibei's encouragement, because her thoughts were the same as Beibei's. After all, hydrangea must have a crispy outer layer to be more formal.

So she also nodded and said: "I think this cooked one should be improved."

This judgment did not mention intuition, which made Beibei a little depressed. However, she asked the question using intuition, which also showed that Ren Tingting should support her.

puff~!

Peng Yue has always been a bit careless. After hearing this, he couldn't help but smile. This immediately caused Beibei's dissatisfaction, but Peng Yue did not look at her depressed eyes, but made a judgment directly.

"The uncooked ones are the improved ones. You guys think Brother Chu is too simple. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see!"

hiss~!

This analysis seems to make some sense, right?

When did Chu Yunfeng make an easy move?
He often gave everyone very different feedback and surprises, and he couldn't guess his technique at all.

Peng Yue's judgment was recognized by several people, and then everyone looked at Chu Yunfeng, wanting to know his correct answer.

Facing everyone's curiosity, Chu Yunfeng's words immediately made everyone speechless: "Uh~! Sorry, you all guessed wrong. These two dishes are both improved versions!"

"Let me go, how is this possible? Are you kidding?"

"Really or not, how do you make the original dishes?"

"You're fooling people, I can't even imagine how to make the original dishes?"

Seeing the "surprise" on everyone's faces, Chu Yunfeng laughed endlessly, which made everyone even more depressed. Peng Yue suddenly felt that his IQ had been insulted and he had to find out.

"Brother, please stop playing, this joke is not funny at all!"

Wu Junjie also continued: "That's right, that's not how you joke!"

The most depressing person is Beibei. Just now she claimed that women's intuition is very accurate, but she was slapped in the face so quickly. This is obviously Chu Yunfeng digging a hole!
"Then tell me how the original dish is made, otherwise I won't believe it. My intuition, eh."

Beibei was a little afraid to say the next words, and she was a little afraid to gamble. What if Chu Yunfeng really dug a hole?

No kidding aside, Chu Yunfeng immediately suppressed his smile and said: "The original dish was not fried, but was directly wrapped in meatballs and steamed.

So the original dish does not have this crunchy texture, which is the main reason why I want to improve and enhance this dish. "

hiss~!

Seeing Chu Yunfeng's serious explanation, everyone believed it, but what they couldn't believe was that Chu Yunfeng could think of two sublimated versions so easily.

If it were me, I would definitely not dare to upgrade in the first place. Being able to learn this dish is already very good.

A sense of powerlessness began to arise in their hearts. When they looked at Chu Yunfeng, everyone's eyes revealed deep admiration.

Peng Yue saw that the integrated stove was still purring, and he immediately asked: "Are they also improving the dishes over there?"

Everyone's attention was diverted instantly, and a feeling of powerlessness gradually emerged in their hearts. This improved dish was just like playing. Is this a normal person?

"Well, it's not about improving the dish, it's about restoring a Sichuan dish. Please help me try the taste later!"

puff~!

Including Peng Yue, Wu Junjie and Song Shaochen were suddenly "choked" severely. Chu Yunfeng's fierce energy was too unreasonable.

Improving the dishes is already great, but that doesn't matter, they are restoring the dishes.

recovery!

This is a recovery dish!
This level of difficulty is much higher than improving dishes. Before he was here quietly, everyone thought he was just playing around. Who knew he was actually doing something big?

No longer able to complain, everyone shook their heads and returned to the cutting board. It was time to study and improve.

If I stay too close to Chu Yunfeng again, my self-confidence will be almost worn away.
Don’t want to try the rest of the dishes?

Seeing everyone running away one after another, Chu Yunfeng was also a little depressed. These guys had finished eating the meat, what should they do with the vegetables at the bottom of the plate?
depressed!

In order not to waste it, Chu Yunfeng could only eat the vegetables one by one, and then saw everyone looking over one after another, looking like they were watching the excitement.

Boy, that was on purpose!
After Chu Yunfeng shook his head helplessly, he began to think carefully about the preparation of this clear soup with pigeon eggs and bird's nests. At present, it seems that the most important thing is the placement of pigeon eggs.

What method should be used to make the pigeon eggs "float" on it?
float?

There are many methods. You can just add some supports inside the bowl. However, these supports are inedible and are just used as a decoration.

However, there was no plastic in ancient times, and anything placed in the bowl was edible. If you did this yourself, it would be superfluous, and you would not be able to 100% restore this dish.

set off?

Carve something into it?

Although it is an ingredient, most of the ingredients that can be used as a foil are relatively hard, which will reduce the experience of this soup dish. Naturally, this method is not feasible.

Float, set off?
Chu Yunfeng thought over and over, and then carefully checked the ingredients needed for this dish. Especially after seeing the complete bird's nest, he immediately slapped his forehead with his palm.

"Why didn't I think of it?"

This shot was a bit harsh, which attracted Peng Yue and the others. Everyone looked over in confusion, and immediately saw Chu Yunfeng beaming. Was this a breakthrough?
Brutal!

monster!

So powerful!

Everyone kept complaining in their hearts, and then they saw Chu Yunfeng busy and excited. It seemed that they would be able to witness the birth of a lost dish later.
Chu Yunfeng was extremely excited at this time. This complete bird's nest instantly gave him great inspiration, that is, when foaming, do not destroy the integrity of the bird's nest.

When cooking, a special method is adopted to steam the bird's nest directly without water, so that the bird's nest will not be deformed by the beating boiling water.

In this way, the overall shape of the bird's nest can be maintained, and the semicircular shape of the bird's nest can be maintained. After steaming, the pigeon eggs can be embedded on the wall of the nest, and that's it!
Sure enough, after the bird's nest was steamed, Chu Yunfeng easily put the pigeon eggs on it, and the eggs only sank 1/3, which immediately made him smile.

After this step is completed, the restoration of this dish is basically 2/3 complete. The fish soup has been cooked at this moment, and Chu Yunfeng started to add milk.

Milk is also added to the chicken soup, and then the five flavors of the soup are poured into five bowls, and finally ham is added for decoration, which looks quite beautiful.

"It's done, everyone come and try it!"

Chu Yunfeng was in a good mood. He took out his mobile phone to take pictures and started drinking to see which one everyone thought was delicious, so that he could determine which soup he should choose.

However, Chu Yunfeng himself was not in a hurry to taste it. He wanted to know everyone's thoughts as soon as possible, and he guessed that it was most likely chicken soup or mandarin fish soup.

"I'm coming!"

Peng Yue stood closest, so he was the first to rush over. When he saw these five identical dishes, he was a little dumbfounded and said, "Is this really a test?"

"I'll go, there are five servings in total. Four of them won't taste terrible, right?"

Beibei naturally understood that this kind of restored dishes must be unusual, because the combination of ingredients was different, and the taste would often be surprisingly weird, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Song Shaochen shrugged indifferently: "If you don't dare to try it, I'll go first. The boss usually won't poison people, and the taste won't be bad."

Boss?

Song Shaochen's words made many people look at him. He used to be arrogant and arrogant, but he was a little unconvinced by Chu Yunfeng. Now his tone has changed, which shows that he is indeed convinced by Chu Yunfeng.

Hearing Song Shaochen call him this for the first time, the corners of Chu Yunfeng's mouth moved imperceptibly, and then he put a male spoon in each of the five bowls.

"Come on, let Lao Song try it first and give you some opinions!"

Lao Song?

Hearing Chu Yunfeng's response to him, Song Shaochen immediately pursed his lips. The title "Old Song" seemed to be quite good. At least it sounded like he had learned to cook for a long time, right?

Chu Yunfeng didn't give any hints about the five bowls of dishes, so everyone didn't ask too much, anyway, they would know after tasting them one by one.

But just when Song Shaochen was about to use a male spoon to serve his own bowl, Peng Yue immediately interrupted: "Where is the dish? You have to let us know what kind of dish it is before tasting it, right?"

Yes, I was so attracted by this dish just now that I forgot to ask this question.

Seeing how curious everyone was, Chu Yunfeng immediately replied with a smile: "This dish is called pigeon eggs and bird's nest in clear soup. It is a Sichuan cuisine dish for the Manchu-Han banquet."

"What, the dishes for the Man-Han Banquet?"

"I'm going, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"No, you can even restore the dishes for the Manchu Banquet now?"

Chu Yunfeng had cooked more than 500 old Sichuan dishes at the state banquet before. No one knew how he learned how to cook them, but now he seemed to have some inspiration.

Couldn't he be the one who recovered?
Dishes for the Manchu-Han Banquet?

How could Song Shaochen wait and endure, he quickly took a spoonful from the last bowl, and then quickly tried a bite. Just one bite immediately made him raise his eyebrows, obviously with a hint of surprise.

Is this delicious?
As soon as everyone had this idea, they saw Song Shaochen moving towards the next bowl even more quickly.
