Chapter 457 Homesickness
Mr. Li's words made Master Mi stunned on the spot. He looked at Mr. Li in shock and then at Chu Yunfeng.

Mr. Li's words made Master Mi feel a huge amount in his heart. There were more than twenty kinds of spices, and he could only remember about ten kinds. Moreover, he could only rely on blind guessing as to the amount.

Chu Yunfeng just grabbed it casually, and then threw it away casually. He could understand and believe that the type was correct, but if the weight was okay, he wouldn't believe it even to death.

But Mr. Li’s words made all this become a fact.
It’s so true that I dare not believe it!
Who is Mr. Li? How can such a master of cooking skills be wrong?
With so many years of cooking experience, he can know the portion size at a glance. This is absolutely unmistakable. If this is the case, how did Chu Yunfeng do it?

If it was really his first time making it, it would be incredible!
"Mr. Li, is this Xiao Chu really cooking this dish for the first time? Did you teach him before you were old?"

Master Mi still couldn't believe what he saw. He had seen many people with talent in cooking, but this was the first time he saw someone like Chu Yunfeng. It was unique.
"What, are you doubting the rules I have set over the years?"

Mr. Li's words were heartfelt, and his expression was calm and powerful, which made Master Mi suddenly "awoke" and quickly apologized.

It has long been spread that Mr. Li does not accept apprentices and does not teach cooking, and he has already reached the age of old age, and he will not let himself be ruined in the future.

So, this Xiao Chu
Chu Yunfeng did not respond to Master Mi's surprise. It would be wrong to talk about this kind of thing. Mr. Li didn't say anything, so he didn't need to pay attention to it.

In the rest of the time, Chu Yunfeng concentrated on production. In his free time, he chatted with Mr. Li. It was also very pleasant to listen to Mr. Li talk about the past.

I thought that Mr. Li would come back last, but I didn't expect that he was still a little worried. He went back to rest for a while and then came back, which moved Chu Yunfeng a little.

Speaking of the past, Chu Yunfeng asked Mr. Li about the dish Mapo Tofu. Mr. Li did not answer directly at first, but asked him what he thought after visiting the store.

Chu Yunfeng expressed his doubts in his heart, wondering whether there should be two different ways of making mapo tofu, and both ways should be authentic.

Mr. Li nodded, shook his head, and was noncommittal about Chu Yunfeng's statement, which made Chu Yunfeng even more confused.

Mr. Li was silent for a moment before saying: "Whether this is the case, I can't give you a true answer, because the true answer needs to be found by yourself."

"Don't you even know about it?" Chu Yunfeng couldn't believe it. Doesn't even Mr. Li know the true origin and history of this dish?

"That's true. I only know that there were two different methods before and after the 50s. There is a big difference in taste and ingredients.

The purpose of letting you visit the store is to let you know some of the techniques before the 50s. You have already seen this, and that is the technique of "Fire Governor".

However, the current method has also been improved and cannot truly restore the original appearance of this dish, so you need to find the answer yourself. "

Mr. Li was very satisfied with Chu Yunfeng's previous answer. The purpose of asking him to visit the store was achieved. The rest depends on how far he can go and whether he can meet his own requirements!
Only then did Chu Yunfeng realize that Mr. Li had three purposes for letting him come to RB, and he had to sigh with emotion that this old man is still hot.

The first is to stabilize my state of mind, the second is to learn the braised bear paw dish, and the third is to allow myself to restore the original taste of Mapo Tofu.

I thought that Mr. Li would not be too concerned about watching him cook when he agreed to it, but I didn't expect that Mr. Li would spend so much thought on himself, which really made me feel a lot.

"Then who can know the original method of making this dish now?" If a "walking dictionary" like Mr. Li doesn't know it clearly, it is probably difficult to trace its original appearance.

"When this dish first emerged in Wanfu Bridge, people around you will always have some impression. You can ask around to see if there are any clues."

Mr. Li shook his head helplessly. After all, so many years have passed, the original place has long been changed, and it is unknown whether he can find some clues.

"I still have some impressions of Wanfu Bridge. When I get back, I will take the time to go there and find out more. It seems I can only try my luck."

It is inevitable that these famous historical dishes will gradually disappear or some methods will be improved as time goes by.

Just like traditional Sichuan cuisine, many classic dishes are about to disappear in just over 20 years. I have to say that this is a big regret.

When it was about to be steamed, Master Mi was once again shocked by Chu Yunfeng's knife skills.

Even Mr. Li's eyes lit up.

Chu Yunfeng previously obtained the colorful glazed hat. After some research, he found that this sword skill +1 skill can be used for 10 minutes at a time, but it needs to be "charged" after being used once, and it can only be used again after a month.

In order to experience the technician-level knife skills in advance, and to make the bear paw slices better, Chu Yunfeng quickly "had a try" to see the effect.

Sure enough, this colorful glass hat also has the incredible function of accelerating knife skills by 20%. When cutting bear paw slices, not only the thickness of each slice is exactly the same, but the knife speed is very fast, which makes people dazzled.

Master Mi was completely shocked
It seems that his decades of knife skills are not as good as Chu Yunfeng's, and his speed is simply much faster than his own.

Anyway, this is good news for obsessives. After hearing the sound of the kitchen knife hitting the cutting board, you can immediately see a thin slice coming down. The rhythm is brisk and dizzying.

When it was about to be steamed, Chu Yunfeng slapped himself on the head hard. Both he and Mu Qing had forgotten the wine they had brought.

So she was severely criticized by Mr. Li, and then Mu Qing hurried back to the hotel to get it. When she came back, Chu Yunfeng just poured the soup on it and had the dish ready.

Mr. Li gave it a thumbs up after trying one sip. The taste was exactly the same as what he had made, and he even felt that it was a little better than the previous one.

Master Mi smelled the strong aroma as soon as Mu Qing opened the bottle, and his mind was no longer on the bear's paw.

At first, he was a little unimpressed when he saw such a small bottle, but then he snatched it from Mu Qing's hand, respectfully poured a glass for Mr. Li, and then filled the cups on the table one by one.

He shouted impatiently.

After taking a sip, Master Mi's eyes suddenly shone, and he asked Chu Yunfeng repeatedly about the origin of this wine.

Chu Yunfeng told him and promised to send him some after returning to China, which made Master Mi nodded happily.

Good wine and good food are both pleasant things. If you stay here for a long time, you will inevitably miss home, and Mr. Li will return to China tomorrow.

Master Mi wanted to keep Mr. Li for two more days, but Mr. Li was homesick and would not have traveled across the ocean like this if not for Chu Yunfeng.

Therefore, Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing had to go back with Mr. Li. When Mr. Li came, President Hou sent someone to deliver them. He was worried about letting him go back alone.

Chu Yunfeng also really wanted to go back to the store and introduce his newly learned Pingqiao tofu.

I believe many people will like this dish, right?
