Chapter 814 Skills of Appreciating Vegetables

"This is chicken bean curd, a Sichuan state banquet dish. It has a lighter taste and should suit your taste very well."

Chu Yunfeng made ten copies in total, and Zhao Qiqi distributed them to everyone. There were eight people in the princess's inspection team, and the other two were naturally Ma Fu and Mu Qing.

“Thank you very much for your hospitality. I can’t wait to taste these delicious dishes. The kimchi alone makes my trip worthwhile.

By the way, Boss Chu, can you serve a fish-flavored shredded pork? In fact, in addition to eating light dishes, I also like the fish-flavored Sichuan cuisine very much.

The last time my sister held a birthday banquet in China, your Sichuan chef made this dish, but I am still recalling the taste of this dish.

But that time I made a joke. I searched for fish-flavored shredded pork for a long time but couldn't find any fish. My sister made me laugh for several days. "

Princess Silena had a bright smile on her face. Since she was here to taste the dishes, of course she wanted to taste her favorite flavors, and this fish flavor was one of them.

"I will serve fish-flavored dishes later. Tasting fish-flavored dishes in advance will affect the taste of light dishes. Fish-flavored shredded pork is just one of the fish-flavored dishes.

I would like to recommend to you a traditional dish that I have newly learned. It can be made into a fish-flavored dish, which will give you a whole new experience in terms of shape and taste. "

Chu Yunfeng kept the name of the dish secret for the time being, but Mu Qing knew that it was the box of tofu that Yipin made when old naughty Li had a childish heart.

Mu Qing also liked this dish very much, but she just didn't know how Chu Yunfeng would handle the ingredients in the tofu box. Let's wait for him to surprise her.

After hearing Chu Yunfeng's answer, Princess Silena immediately knew that this was an upgraded dish, and she now understood that as long as it was a traditional dish, it would be very exquisite.

"That's great. I'm just waiting for you to give us a surprise. I'm looking forward to it very much!"

Princess Silena was indeed in a very good mood. The banquet tonight was a reception banquet, and it was free. She insisted on paying, but the two refused.

Mu Qing's answer reflected her high emotional intelligence: "Since it is a reception banquet, of course it is free. If there is a fee, how can it be considered a reception? This is the custom of Chinese hospitality. When visiting a country, you must do as the Romans do."

Seeing that the princess was in a good mood, Chu Yunfeng smiled and asked at the right time: "I have a friend who works in the news. He wants to take some photos for post-production news. Is it convenient for the princess to see if it is convenient at this time?"

When Chu Yunfeng said this, he emphasized the word "late stage" more strongly, and also mentioned that he would not disclose the whereabouts of the princess. After understanding this, Princess Silena nodded happily and agreed.

"Wait a moment, I'll ask them to come in."

Chu Yunfeng secretly thought that everything was going well. Yu Lili had told her several times just now how to take this photo. It was best to take a group photo.

Taking a group photo can show that the relationship between the two parties is relatively close, and it can also send a clear signal to the outside world, that is, Sichuan cuisine has been stabilized this time, and other cuisines should not be mixed in.

So after bringing Yu Lili and the others in, Chu Yunfeng began to ask: "Princess, can Mu Qing and I take a photo with you?"

Princess Silena agreed directly without any hesitation: "No problem, hurry up. I actually really want to taste the delicious dishes."

Seeing the princess' eager look, Yu Lili also felt the princess's love for these dishes, which was undisguised.

Taking photos was very fast. After Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing approached the princess, Yu Lili saw the cameraman quickly snapping pictures.

"OK, thank you princess."

After Yu Lili made an OK gesture, she took the cameraman and walked out. As long as she could get this photo, her trip was worthwhile.

There were quite a few people in the work group who were feeling depressed just now. I couldn't find any useful information after searching all over. It was really frustrating.

And he not only took photos of the dishes on the table, but also took photos of Chu Yunfeng, Mu Qing, and the princess, and also took photos of the entire team.

"Thank you princess, please take your time to taste, I will go to the kitchen to continue cooking.

By the way, do you need to taste Chinese white wine in addition to red wine?We have our own fine liquor brewed here. Do you want some? "

Before leaving, Chu Yunfeng started to promote it. If he could promote Chinese liquor during a banquet abroad, it would definitely be a model of cultural exchange.

"It's not necessary for now, we'd better drink red wine."

Princess Silena refused tactfully. She brought a lot of top-quality red wine with her when she came out this time. Mu Qing's eyes flashed when she saw the two bottles on the table.

"OK, I'll leave first, please take your time."

Before Chu Yunfeng left, he glanced at Ma Fu and asked him to cooperate with Mu Qing. Ma Fu naturally smiled and nodded in response.

Mu Qing also gave Chu Yunfeng a "reassuring" look, saying that he would find an opportunity to handle the liquor matter by himself.

"How did the photo shoot go?"

After Chu Yunfeng came out, he asked immediately. Mu Qing had prepared this photo and hung it up in the hotel. It is a good way of publicity for celebrities like this to visit the store.

"It's pretty good, look at it.

By the way, can we have a brief interview after this dinner?It doesn’t take too much time, just 5 minutes is enough. The interview will make it more valuable for reporting. "

Although a photo is enough to send a press release, but the content is not enough to resonate with readers.

Because the most critical thing is missing, that is, the princess’s experience of the dinner dishes. If these key things are added, this report will be full of flesh and blood, and naturally many people will pay attention.

"We'll see when the time comes. I'll ask the princess if she agrees. You can go eat first. It's been prepared for you. There's no point in staying here all the time."

They were all old acquaintances, so Chu Yunfeng naturally helped them arrange dinner, and Yu Lili and the cameraman quickly thanked them.

Chu Yunfeng continued to cook in the kitchen, and the atmosphere in the private room became lively.

After Princess Silena tasted the kimchi, she began to have some difficulties facing the seven dishes on the table. Which dish should she choose first?

Bazhen seabass?
This dish is said to be Xingchen's signature dish and cannot be tasted outside. Moreover, it is said that the meat of the four-cheeked bass is extremely tender and delicious.

Such a good thing should be tasted later, and this is a hot soup like chickpeas, so I should try some cold dishes first.

"What's the name of this dish?"

The princess had seen the menu before, but she just glanced over it and didn't remember every dish in detail, so she was very interested in the name of this black and white dish.

“This is called Black and White Shuangsha, it’s a seasonal cold dish, you can try it, it’s sweet and sour.

Usually some millet is added to this dish to add some spiciness, but if you want it to be lighter, the chili pepper is naturally not added. "

"Hmm~! This name is quite interesting, I'll give it a try."

Everyone present was waiting for the princess to "take down the chopsticks". After seeing her put the black and white ingredients into the bowl, everyone started to move.

This black and white combination is actually walnuts and black fungus. The walnuts are fresh and have lost the bitter coating on the outside. They taste fresh, crisp and sweet.

The black fungus also has a great origin. It is selected from Qingchuan County, Sichuan. The black fungus here has a national geographical indication. It tastes smooth and smooth, soft but not greasy, and has a fragrant taste.

After just one taste, Princess Silena immediately praised: "It's so delicious, the fragrance of this walnut is so rich.

This fungus is also very magical. It has a strong crispy texture, but also has a smooth feeling, just like eating meat. This feeling is simply amazing. "

Nava also nodded suddenly, deeply agreeing with the princess's evaluation. Zhalun and Songpa also secretly admired in their hearts. This cold dish looked very simple, but they didn't expect it to be so wonderful.

After receiving the call before, the two just told each other that the princess was currently more interested in Sichuan cuisine. As for their whereabouts, the two did not dare to reveal the slightest bit, and then turned off their phones.

"This egg cake should be eaten while it's hot, it won't taste good when it's cold."

Mu Qing turned the dish to the princess and reminded her carefully. However, the princess looked surprised when she saw it. Is this glutinous rice cake?

"Is this glutinous rice cake? Is it Chinese glutinous rice cake? It looks different from Vietnamese glutinous rice cake?"

This must be the first time Princess Sirena has seen Chinese glutinous rice cakes. It seems to be quite different from the ones she has seen before. She can't believe that this is glutinous rice cakes.

The golden coat on the outside looks very beautiful. Compared with the glutinous rice cakes in Vietnam, it is as good as heaven or earth.

"Yes, this is the most classic way to eat Chinese glutinous rice cake. It can also be eaten grilled, but the fragrance is not as fragrant as fried eggs wrapped on top.

I know about glutinous rice cakes in Vietnam. People there also eat glutinous rice cakes, but the cooking method is very different from ours.

After the people over there steamed the glutinous rice, they put it in a wooden trough and started pounding it. When it was almost done, they put some sesame oil on it.

Then continue to pound it, and finally put it into a bowl with a spoon and eat it directly without adding any condiments. Another way to eat it is to wrap the glutinous rice cake in banana leaves and steam it, and eat it directly without adding any condiments.

There are many ways to eat it here, and there are a variety of condiments. Although the way to eat it is different in different places, eating it with some sugar is the most delicious. Try it? "

Mu Qing's understanding of food is also very comprehensive, and her introduction also made Princess Selina's eyes shine, so she nodded and picked up a piece of glutinous rice cake, dipped it on the brown sugar, and then dipped a little bit of bean noodles.

The rest of the team members couldn't help it anymore and started to move immediately.

This dish is very special at first sight. Just the golden eggs are something that no one has ever seen before. It seems that eggs have never been fried with such a wonderful color before.

"It's delicious, it's so delicious. The eggs outside are so fragrant. Although it's only a thin layer, the fragrance is really strong.

This glutinous rice cake is also delicious. It tastes crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside, with a full fragrance. The brown sugar and bean noodles add a strong taste. "

After Princess Silena finished eating one, she still felt a little unsatisfied. She lifted the chopsticks in her hand involuntarily and then put them back.

Naturally, this action was keenly captured by Mu Qing. She smiled slightly and sent a message on her phone.
The rest of the team members also had a look of anticipation on their faces, but they looked at the empty plates and sighed silently in their hearts.

Why is this Chinese glutinous rice cake so delicious?
"Roasted chicken fir with ham, this dish is a seasonal fungus, chicken fir is our local, there is not much production around Rongcheng, but the mountainous areas of nearby counties and cities produce a lot.

This kind of fungus cannot be cultivated artificially, and it can only be tasted during the rainy season every year. When paired with Xuanwei ham, the taste is very rich.

But you can't eat too much at one time. If you eat too much of this fungus, you will feel very weak. Try it? "

This is a stir-fry dish. Usually, some spicier green peppers, millet peppers and green peppercorns are added to it. The locals like this spicy taste very much.

But Chu Yunfeng only added mild green pepper and red pepper to match the color. The taste was relatively light and full of salty flavor.

Princess Silena nodded, took some with a spoon and put it in a bowl. She immediately smelled the unique fungus aroma of chicken fir and started to taste it immediately.

"It's so delicious that my taste buds are almost melting. This kind of chicken fir is also available in Thailand, but the appearance and color are different from those in China.

In Thailand, chicken berries are black-skinned, and the taste is much worse than this. Moreover, we lack ingredients like ham that can sublimate the flavor of the mushrooms, so China is better. "

Princess Silena immediately expressed her love for this dish, and her tone was very strong, which embarrassed the team members who had not yet "moved the spoon".

Should you stretch yourself or not?
I'm not used to using these chopsticks, but I have the spoon in my hand, but I have to stop. I'd better wait for the princess to taste it first, and then I can taste it myself if I have more.

So except for Mu Qing, Ma Fu and the princess who had been tasting this dish, the rest of them sat upright, watching the three of them happily tasting this dish, and they could only swallow quietly.
"The dish just now was a little salty, so let's order the refreshing lotus cake to taste this exquisite dim sum dish."

There are skills in tasting each dish. Arranging the order according to the different tastes of the dishes can greatly improve the quality of tasting. Not everyone understands this matching method.

After entering the mouth of the lotus cake, you can hear a very crisp sound. The texture and taste are absolutely first-class. Princess Silena has already given it a thumbs up. It is indeed so delicious.

Others were staring at the plate of ham and roasted chicken. At this time, there was only 1/3 left on the plate. If they didn't start, they would have no chance.

So the other seven people actually put their spoons in at the same time in a tacit understanding, but it seemed that Nava, Chalun and Songpa were faster, and most of the rest were divided up by these three people.
"Next, let's try this classic Sichuan state banquet dish. This is carefully prepared by Chef Chu. You can't taste such a delicious taste outside."

Mu Qing is also very particular about choosing chickpea cakes, because after tasting the lotus cakes, there will be a lot of crumbs in the mouth, and the soup will have a good palate clearing effect.

But before tasting the dish, Princess Sirena raised her glass
