Chapter 692 Buddha Jumps over the Wall in Sichuan Cuisine

Chu Yue's unexpected action made Chu Yunfeng laugh, knowing why Chu Yue had such a reaction.

"Oh, it's so salty, water, water, I want to drink water!"

Chu Yue drank big gulps of water, making everyone laugh.

"Didn't Master Lin just say that we use it to mix rice with rice at noon? Who asked you to eat it secretly?"

After Mu Qing handed the water to Chu Yue, she laughed from ear to ear.

"How did I know? When I smell this, it smells so good that I can't help but want to taste it. What's so funny about it?"

Seeing that everyone was laughing at her, Chu Yue couldn't help but feel depressed and a little shy. Especially when she saw Chu Yunfeng smiling the most happily, she couldn't help but glare at him.

"Try the pork belly inside. The flavor is just right. The bean sprouts are very fragrant when mixed with rice for lunch."

Chu Yunfeng smiled, but when he saw Chu Yue acting like a greedy cat, he couldn't help but tell her what tasted best.

But Chu Yue didn't seem to trust Chu Yunfeng very much, thinking that he still wanted to see herself humiliated, so she pouted and said, "I won't eat it now, I can't be fooled by you!"

Chu Yunfeng shook his head and couldn't help but laugh again, realizing that Chu Yue really couldn't stand the teasing.

"Come on, let's taste this package of roast chicken first."

Chef Lin butchered the chicken into pieces and invited everyone to taste it.

Seeing Chu Yunfeng laughing at herself, Chu Yue didn't bother to pay attention to him at the moment. The aroma from this bag of roast chicken had already made her index fingers move, so she picked up a piece and stuffed it into her mouth.

Click!

The first thing that came out was the crisp sound, and then came the tender and juicy feeling.

The outer layer of mesh oil has been roasted to a very crispy texture, and the rich crispy smell goes straight into the nose, making people almost want to moan.

When roasting, after the bean sprouts and pork belly are heated, the rich aroma that comes out has completely penetrated into the chicken.

The rich fragrance leaves an endless aftertaste!

Coupled with the tender and juicy texture of the chicken, it is simply a fairy-like feeling.

Especially when tasted with sweet and sour lettuce, the flavor is even more unique, so delicious that you really want to bite your fingers.

"Hmm~! It's so fragrant, delicious, delicious, isn't this too delicious?"

While Chu Yue was praising, she continued to quickly eliminate the chicken nuggets on the plate. Among the six people present, the other five were slowly savoring them.

Only Chu Yue was the fastest. Often as soon as a piece of chicken was thrown into her mouth, the bones of the previous piece of chicken would be spit out. The speed of this handover was not unpleasant.

"The aroma of this dish is indispensable to the bean sprouts. The design of the net oil is also very original and unique. It is indeed very unique."

After Chu Yunfeng tasted a piece, he stopped to reflect on it, and then expressed his opinion.

“Yes, this is the most unique part of this dish, but it’s a little troublesome to make, and it can’t be roasted in an oven on a large scale like roast duck.

This is also quite time-consuming and labor-intensive to make. If it were not to improve the quality of the restaurant’s dishes, I would not want to introduce this dish. "

Chef Lin's words were full of helplessness. There will indeed be many difficulties in promoting this delicious dish. The reason is simply that it is not suitable for the current market rhythm.

"Don't say that. If this dish is introduced, the restaurant's business will definitely explode. Not many people can resist such a taste."

Chu Yunfeng didn't believe that no one ordered such a delicious dish. This dish could definitely be used as the restaurant's signature dish, because even someone as picky as himself liked it so much, let alone the public diners.
"Haha~! Let me borrow your good words and wish the restaurant a great business in advance. Come, come, try more, try more!

Huh~?

uh~! "

Chu Yunfeng's words were very helpful to Master Lin. It seemed that his strategy was correct and the restaurant business would definitely get better and better.

Just when I was about to let everyone taste more, I found that there were less than five pieces of chicken left on the plate.
So everyone looked at the pile of chicken bones clearly piled up on the table. If they moved their eyes slightly upward, they could see Chu Yue's expression of enjoyment.

"Watch what I do. Eat quickly. If you don't eat, it will be gone!"

After Chu Yue finished speaking, she picked up another piece of lettuce and put it into her mouth. Then she quickly moved her chopsticks and there were only 4 pieces of chicken left on the plate.

Mu Qing chuckled and made the same move as Chu Yue. There were only 3 pieces of chicken left.
"If you don't eat, it will really be gone. Are you sure you don't want to eat? Then I'll be embarrassed!"

Chu Yue quickly destroyed another piece of chicken, causing Chu Yunfeng and Master Lin to burst into laughter.

"You eat, you eat. We can't make it without the ingredients today. If you want to eat some other time, come to my store. I'll make sure you eat enough."

Master Lin was very satisfied when he saw that Chu Yue liked the dish he cooked so much. Why would he mind if she eats more?
"That's great. Thank you, Master Lin. Sister Mu Qing, there are two more pieces left. Let's take one piece each."

Chu Yue was previously afraid that Chu Yunfeng would come to snatch it from her, so now her mouth was filled with too much, so she hesitated to thank Master Lin, but she did not forget to invite Mu Qing to enjoy it with her.

"Okay, we split!"

Mu Qing also likes this dish very much, but no matter how much she likes the dish, Mu Qing always eats so reserved and elegantly, neither fast nor slow, and has a very calm temperament.

Shen Wengang and Fang Decai even laughed dumbly, both being amused by Chu Yue's ability to eat.

"I'll try to make it when I go back to Chengdu. It's really delicious!"

After Mu Qing finished eating the last piece of chicken, she blinked at Chu Yunfeng. The word "try" in her words had a profound meaning, and Chu Yunfeng understood it immediately.

Mu Qing knew that she could "know it at a glance" and knew that Master Lin's dish was already in her pocket, but she couldn't reveal this secret in front of everyone.

So this code word and blinking eyes made Chu Yunfeng grin: "Seeing that you like it so much, let's try it when we get back. If it's not as delicious as Master Lin's, I'll take you to the store to eat."

Chu Yunfeng also blinked, and Mu Qing secretly became happy. She closed her eyes and nodded, feeling very happy.

Chu Yue on the side also started cheering: "I want to go too, I want to go too."

Chu Yue's liveliness made everyone laugh again. Shen Wengang and Fang Decai both nodded silently in agreement with Chu Yunfeng's statement that the food was not as delicious as Master Lin's.

Master Lin just smiled and passed by, his thoughts in his heart were very different from the two of them.

Even if Chu Yunfeng's work is a bit inferior at present, it won't be long before his skills will definitely surpass his own.

"The bull's head is almost done. I'll take care of it first. Once it's done, I'll wait to see Master Lin show off his skills. I'm looking forward to this jar of meat.

It is said that the finished product is fragrant and fragrant after opening the lid! "

Chu Yunfeng's eyes lit up when he mentioned the jar meat. This is definitely a super hard dish with unique Sichuan characteristics.

It is almost as good as Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. Except for the slightly inferior ingredients, its preparation method and aroma are not inferior at all.

"No problem, just wait and see. I guarantee you will like the taste."

Master Lin smiled confidently, this jar of meat can definitely be regarded as a secret of the sect, and you can imagine how extraordinary it is.

Chu Yunfeng took out the cow's head and cooled it for a while, then picked up the knife and started to remove the scalp.

After more than 2 hours of stewing, the cow's scalp has begun to become a little soft, and with the quickness of Chu Yunfeng's knife technique, a whole piece of scalp was easily removed.

"Brother Chu, your sword skills are really incredible. If I hadn't seen you so young, I would have thought that you have been practicing for at least more than ten years."

Master Lin's words immediately received nods of approval from the two junior brothers. This young face was simply too deceptive.

Who would have thought that such a young person would have such amazing cooking skills? If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Shen Wengang would never have believed it.

"Thank you very much, Master Lin. I just use the knife smoothly. I don't deserve your praise."

Chu Yunfeng was still very modest. While responding to Master Lin, he cut the whole piece of cow scalp into square sizes, and then trimmed the corners neatly.

The processing of the cow's scalp is a very simple matter, but the next step is the essence of the whole dish, and it is also the most critical step.

At this time, there are many ingredients placed on the kitchen table, and it can be said that the value of each ingredient is more valuable than these boxy cow scalps.

Who would have thought that these precious ingredients are all used to set off these small cubes of cow scalp?

When Chu Yunfeng was about to take action, Master Lin said with emotion: "My master said this before, as long as you eat the braised beef head recipe, it is equivalent to eating braised bear paws.

No one has made this dish for decades, except for our first attempt yesterday. I hope we can succeed today! "

"I believe Brother Chu, it will be fine."

Shen Wengang clenched his fist and immediately expressed his support.

Fang Decai also nodded. He seemed to believe in Chu Yunfeng's cooking skills. Especially after Chu Yunfeng added some ingredients, he became even more confident in him.

"Don't tell me, the beef head recipe I tasted yesterday is a bit similar to the braised bear paw, but the taste is a little different."

Mu Qing compared it carefully and found that Master Lin's words made sense.

"Braised bear's paw, sister Mu Qing, are you kidding me?
As if you've actually eaten it? "

Chu Yue disagreed and thought Mu Qing was joking. Is this braised bear paw something you can eat casually?
Master Lin and the other two shook their heads slightly, as if they didn't believe what Mu Qing said.

"Don't tell me, yesterday I found out that the taste of this beef head square seems to be quite similar to a dish, but I can't remember it.

When Master Lin mentioned this, and thought about it carefully, it was really similar to the braised bear paws we had some time ago. "

Chu Yunfeng originally wanted to keep a low profile, but when he saw Chu Yue pouting, he couldn't help but say it to tease her.

"Brother Chu, have you two really eaten it? Is it bear paw cooked in traditional Sichuan cuisine?"

Master Lin felt that what Mu Qing said was not credible, but after Chu Yunfeng said it again, it seemed that this matter was not so simple?
"I have eaten it before. We went to Japan with Mr. Li some time ago. It is legal to eat bear paws there. Mr. Li made a portion and we were lucky enough to try it."

Chu Yunfeng winked at Chu Yue as he spoke, meaning who told you not to believe it? We just ate it.
"Mr. Li? Is that Mr. Li?"

When Shen Wengang and Fang Decai heard Mr. Li's name, they immediately lost their composure and asked excitedly.

"It's Mr. Li, brother Chu, who has a lot of good taste. Not only has he tasted Mr. Li's handicraft, but also this braised bear's paw. I'm really envious."

Master Lin knew the relationship between Chu Yunfeng and Mr. Li, so he was not as shocked as the two junior brothers.

But I am still very envious of being able to taste this dish made by Mr. Li himself.

"It's just luck. It happened that Mr. Li's old friend got bear paws there, so we got this good fortune."

Chu Yunfeng would not tell the truth. It was a good explanation to attribute everything to luck.

Chu Yue knew that Chu Yunfeng did it on purpose, so she ignored him and pestered Mu Qing to whisper something.

Chu Yunfeng did not explain too much. He picked up the ingredients on the table, raised the knife and cut the chicken legs and duck legs a few times, but did not cut them off. He just chopped the skin and meat to make it easier to cook them. .

After it was chopped, it was thrown into a fresh pot of water, and then Xuanwei ham, beef bones, chicken fat and scallops were added.

Among them, there are five ingredients that are different from Master Lin and others.

Chicken legs, duck legs, beef bones, chicken fat and scallops!

When I made it yesterday, I used pork stick bones, but Chu Yunfeng used beef bones instead. The use of chicken fat and scallops won unanimous praise from Master Lin and others.

The subsequent methods were also different. Yesterday, ginger and scallions were thrown directly into the pot, but Chu Yunfeng specially used oil to saute the two before throwing them in.

Then it is necessary to add sugar color to increase the color. Yesterday, Master Lin and the others directly added soy sauce, while Chu Yunfeng made the sugar color by frying white sugar.

"Brother Chu is serious. The old traditional Sichuan dishes in the past were all sugar-colored. It really makes me ashamed. The old tradition has almost been lost."

Master Lin sighed when he saw Chu Yunfeng cooking according to the old traditional Sichuan cuisine methods.

Shen Wengang and Fang Decai on the side also nodded silently, recognizing Chu Yunfeng's spirit of pursuing tradition.

After Chu Yunfeng nodded, he added sugar color and then added some spices: Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, star anise, sannai, bay leaves, etc.

Finally, after the fire burned the water, the cow scalp was covered with gauze, put into the pot and started to simmer over low heat.

The rest is just a matter of waiting time. Come back in about 6 hours and you can collect the juice and serve it.

"Master Lin, it's up to you now, let's open our eyes?"

Chu Yunfeng washed his hands and took off his apron, with a strong desire in his eyes.

"No problem, let me bring out a treasure first. This thing is hard to find. Without it, this jar of meat will not be worthy of its name."

After finishing speaking, Master Lin entered the room, and quickly came out with a jar in his arms.

“This thing is the key to making this dish, and it took me a lot of effort to find it.

Xiao Chu, if you want to make this dish, I’m afraid it will be a little difficult, haha.”

Master Lin's words made Chu Yunfeng stunned for a moment, and he was a little confused. Is it really so difficult to make this dish?
However, when Chu Yunfeng saw the jar, the corners of his mouth curved greatly.

What did you think it was? Is this thing difficult for me to find?
