Chapter 216 Impressions of Sichuan Food
A cage of jade-green and vivid Baoping Shaomai appeared before his eyes. Chu Yunfeng sighed that this was completely a work of art. Whoever saw it would be willing to eat it.

Vegetables and ham are both available in the store. If you can't, just make a few baskets immediately when you go out and eat one yourself first.

The system-customized steamer can only steam two in one basket. After Chu Yunfeng came out, he checked the price.

There are no surprises or surprises, it’s still 99 yuan per cage.

After hanging the price tag, Chu Yunfeng began to make it.

President Hou and President Xiong naturally tasted the mysterious flavor and looked at each other.

"I said you were being pretentious. You just agreed to it when you came here, and you still wanted to try his craftsmanship first. You put on so many airs, aren't you afraid that he won't get used to it and won't agree to you then?"

President Xiong knew why President Hou came in a hurry today. Sichuan cuisine has indeed been misunderstood by everyone for too long.

If this continues, it will be difficult to change Sichuan cuisine after it has formed a stereotype in everyone's mind.

"This kid is a freak. Tell me, what kind of chef is he who can cook out the most original and hidden flavors in ingredients?"

President Hou was already a little numb to the frequent surprises Chu Yunfeng gave him.

"Who else is there? We used to be called stunt chefs, but now we have reformed and call them senior technicians."

President Xiong was also amazed at Chu Yunfeng's cooking skills. He couldn't stop as soon as he finished the first dish and ate it all without any regard for his manners. This was rare.

"Hey, what is this kid doing? He seems to be making minced meat, huh~? It smells so good~! Go over and take a look.

Chu Yunfeng was concentrating on making the dishes and did not notice that the two presidents came to him.

When he started chopping vegetables, President Hou said in surprise: "It can't be Jade Shaomai. It's not easy to see this snack in Chengdu."

"It looks like it's real. Let's see how it tastes when it comes out." Xiong Guizhi drank two bowls of it. He felt like he was getting hungrier as he ate, and felt that he could still eat five more bowls.

The two presidents stood here waiting patiently. Chu Yunfeng only discovered them after he put the steamer on.

"This Emerald Siu Mai is well done, it makes me feel like I'm eating breakfast in the land of Yangzhou." Chairman Hou praised without hesitation.

"You are exaggerating. Compared with the Huaiyang cuisine masters in Yangzhou, I am still far behind?" Chu Yunfeng said humbly.

"Oh, you are so ambitious. You are directly compared to the master of Huaiyang cuisine. Not bad, not bad." President Xiong said jokingly.

"I remember Zhu Ziqing specially praised this jade shaomai: it is moist and smooth, never greasy, not only delicious, but also beautiful in color."

President Hou comes right out of his mouth and has a very deep foundation in food culture.

"Yes, the Fuchun Tea House in those days promoted Huaiyang cuisine and spread it to future generations. Especially the Sanding buns and Jade Shaomai, which are simply the living signatures of the Fuchun Tea House."

President Xiong is no exception, and his food culture skills are equally solid.

"It's out of the pot. It's not bad. The skin is as thin as paper and the color is like emerald. As for the fragrance and sweetness, you have to try it to know."

After Chu Yunfeng took out the siu mai, he gave it to the two presidents after a simple arrangement.

"Exquisite!" Chairman Xiong praised, success is inevitable for those who can pay attention to details and persist.

"Okay, this tastes good. It can be said that the top shaomai in Yangzhou is like this." President Hou used chopsticks to pick up the neck of the shaomai, and then started to eat from the base. It felt fragrant and sweet in the mouth.

Chu Yunfeng also ate two cages himself, and they tasted really good.

"Xiao Chu, do you know Sichuan cuisine?" President Hou got to the point.

"Sichuan cuisine? Are you talking about our Sichuan cuisine?" Chu Yunfeng was a little confused. Who doesn't know Sichuan cuisine? Anyone who lives in Sichuan should know it very well, let alone a chef?
"Then what kind of taste do you think Sichuan food tastes like?" President Hou continued to ask, taking a bite of Shaomai and tasting it slowly while waiting for his answer.

President Xiong sipped Shaomai on the side and quietly became a melon-eater, because Chu Yunfeng's answer would not surprise him.

"Sichuan food? Isn't it spicy? The taste is very strong, everyone knows this!" As expected by President Xiong, Chu Yunfeng's answer was no different from the others.

Even local people in Sichuan think so, so do people in other places think the same way?

"Are you from Sichuan?" President Hou asked without comment on Chu Yunfeng's answer.

"It should be considered, I grew up in Sichuan." Chu Yunfeng thought for a while and replied like this.

"Then tell me what famous Sichuan dishes you know?" President Hou's question was like Pandora's box, slowly starting to open...

President Xiong smiled and said nothing, eating melons and melons, waiting for the "overturn".

"Sichuan cuisine, let me think about it, Mapo tofu, saliva chicken, northern Sichuan jelly, white chicken (red oil flavor), couple's lung slices, twice-cooked pork, pickled pepper chicken feet, bangbang chicken, fish-flavored shredded pork, salt-fried pork, farmhouse Fried pork.

Boiled pork slices, spicy shrimp, Dengying beef, Maoxuewang, spicy chicken, sweet duck, spicy crayfish, garlic white meat, pickled fish, Kung Pao chicken, Dongpo elbow, dry stir-fried eel, farm stir-fried pork .

I think these dishes are relatively famous across the country. "In Chu Yunfeng's impression, these 20 dishes should be familiar to everyone, and they are also everyone's impression of Sichuan cuisine.

"Oh, it's not bad. You can name so many dishes." President Xiong didn't forget to comment while eating the melon.

"You just said that out of the 23 dishes in total, only 5 are not spicy, which means that about 70% of the dishes are spicy and 30% of the dishes are not spicy, right?"

President Hou's memory is amazing. Chu Yunfeng reported so many dish names, and he actually remembered them all. Not only did he remember them, he even knew which dish was spicy or not spicy, and he even calculated it.

"It should be?! Chu Yunfeng himself doesn't even remember how many dishes he uttered, let alone calculate which ones are spicy and which ones are not."

"Then do you think Sichuan cuisine is actually a cuisine with a majority of spicy food?" President Hou asked step by step. He had asked this question to three people before, and all three people gave the same answer.

"Yes, when people talk about Sichuan food now, isn't it just spicy? The most mentioned thing is hot pot, which everyone thinks is very spicy. Sichuan people are particularly fond of spicy food, as well as hemp, and people in many places can't eat Sichuan peppercorns.

Especially Hunan people, they are very good at eating chili peppers, but if you ask them to try eating a peppercorn, they will be defeated in a minute. "

Chu Yunfeng's answer was almost the same as the previous three people. His impression of Sichuan food was spicy, and he had no other feelings.

President Xiong shook his head and sighed helplessly.

President Hou rubbed his temples, took a deep breath and said, "If I told you that only 30% of real Sichuan food is spicy and 70% is not spicy, would you believe it?"
