At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 56 Wok and Essence of Chicken

Asked by the lord, Fan Zhu thought for a while and replied: "The most important thing in running a restaurant is the food. Whichever restaurant is the most delicious can attract more customers."

Having said that, Fan Zhu paused, and bowed to Xu Mu: "In Luoyang City, there are three major restaurants, each of which specializes in a famous dish, which is famous in Luoyang. The world is fresh, and the soup cakes in Wangjianglou are the best in the world. Compared with them, we are really not as good as them."

He persuaded him earnestly, in his opinion, it is really unwise to open a restaurant in Luoyang.

Xu Mu nodded slightly when he heard him list the three major restaurants in Luoyang City. Fan Zhu seemed to have done his homework.

After coming to Luoyang for so long, Xu Mu actually knows the signature dishes of these three restaurants.

Even... I even went to taste one by one in person.

Just because he tasted it, he became more determined to open a restaurant in Luoyang.

"Who says we are not as good as them? With all due respect, the so-called delicacies of these three restaurants are nothing but leftovers and nothing new."

As soon as Xu Mu opened his mouth, Fan Zhu was startled, and he froze on the spot, staring dumbfounded at his lord's nonsense.

"In my opinion, the roasted whole sheep in Zuixian Pavilion has no appearance, no color, fragrance, and no real understanding of how sheep are made."

"The freshness of the world in Heyilou, the sea bass is indeed very popular, and the standard is considered first-class, but I don't know what is fresh."

"Wangjianglou has a wide variety of soup cakes, chaotic, and noodles all have their own characteristics, but they are too mixed and lose their purity."

Xu Mu opened his mouth and came, his words were full of disdain for the signature dishes of the three major restaurants.

Three consecutive comments left Fan Zhu speechless.

He is busy these days, so he doesn't have time to try the signature dishes of these three restaurants.

But he knew that the lord had tasted it.

Could it be... is it really as the lord said?
Are the signature dishes of the three major restaurants in Luoyang really so unbearable?

He couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

But I can't be sure, after all, the three major restaurants have been open for decades and are well-known in Luoyang City.

Maybe... the lord's request is too high?The definition of food is beyond ordinary people?

While he was thinking to himself, Xu Mu was still attacking the three restaurants, scaring Fan Zhu even more.

"Forgive me, the three major restaurants are all beggars' food. If the restaurant run by my Wanmin Company can't pull them off the altar, then..."

Xu Mu said, looked at Fan Zhu, and said with deep meaning: "It can only be a business problem of your employer."

"My lord... my lord..." Fan Zhu swallowed, trying to explain.

"Okay, you may not know much about our Wanmin City. It just so happens that the research institute just sent some things over a few days ago."

Xu Mu waved his hand to stop him, and then ordered people to buy some fish from the fishermen along the coast.

Then he brought Fan Zhu and Wang Zhao to the kitchen.

"Wang Zhao, take out the iron pot."

Xu Mu pointed to a large package in the kitchen and asked Wang Zhao to open it.

"Promise!" Wang Zhao gave a military salute, and opened the package solemnly.

A wide variety of things were revealed.

Semicircular iron pot.

Iron spatula.

There are also various bamboo jars, large and small.

"My lord, what is this?"

Fan Zhu frowned slightly, even though he had traveled all over the world, he had never seen such weird things before.

This iron pot... looks like a stove in the kitchen, somewhat similar to a saucepan.

Xu Mu picked up one of the pitch-black iron pots and put it on the stove, full of emotion.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, most of the mainstream food methods were steaming, boiling and stewing, and there was never a practice of frying.

It was not until the Song Dynasty that the iron pot was born, and the great foodie nation invented stir-frying, a gourmet cooking method destined to be passed down through the ages.

spread into the 21st century.

In Wanmin City, although the iron pot had been made by Xu Mu long ago, it was not popularized.

After all, it belongs to the level of enjoyment, and the refugees of Wanmin City, at this stage, it is not suitable to promote it.

And those bamboo pots contain... chicken essence, which was developed by the research institute not long ago.

That's right, chicken essence.

Essence of chicken known as the ultimate taste.

Of course, compared to the 21st century chicken essence with industrial ingredients, it is incomparable in terms of umami, but now, Xu Mu feels that it can crush them a hundred times!
The research institute uses chicken breast meat, plus mushrooms, onion, ginger, garlic, sugar and other materials to grind and grind into powder, and mix it many times to get the best ratio.

Mushrooms in this era, that is, all kinds of mushrooms, if added to dishes, can greatly enhance the freshness!

This is why Xu Mu dared to be so arrogant.

With wok and chicken essence, not to mention the three major restaurants in Luoyang City, even if the food in restaurants all over the world is combined, they will not be the opponent of Wanmin Commercial Restaurant.

Then, under the command of Xu Mu, chef Wang Zhao was asked to cook three different types of fish.

They are braised fish, steamed fish, and stewed fish soup.

No way, among the three, Wang Zhao... the one who can cook a little.

But Xu Mu is confident that with the chicken essence and the wok, as long as Wang Zhao doesn't be stupid and adds salt indiscriminately, the taste can crush the three major restaurants in Luoyang.

"Come on, Lao Fan, have a taste."

Xu Mu pointed to the three plate fish in front of him... the color and fragrance were ruined on the color, and motioned for Fan Zhu to taste it.

Fan Zhu glanced at Wang Zhao, then secretly glanced at the lord, and could only pick up the chopsticks with his eyes closed, ready to bite the bullet and take a bite.

To be honest, he didn't believe at all that under the lord's random command, Wang Zhao's frantic movements could make something delicious.

Especially... the appearance of the three plate fish is really not very good.

Extremely ugly.

however……

Just as he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish, and tasted it, his eyes straightened instantly.

Throat could not help wriggling a bit.

It seems that I can't believe the taste I tasted in my lips and tongue just now.

Quickly picked up the chopsticks and continued to taste the second bite.

The unprecedented umami taste made his mouth salivate and constantly stimulated his taste buds.

"This...this this..."

Fan Zhu finished the braised fish, then the steamed fish again, and finally stewed fish soup.

Especially after taking a sip of the soup, I was so excited that I couldn't help talking incoherently.

"This... this taste, the subordinates are really ignorant, they don't know that there is such a delicious food in the world!" Finally, Fan Zhu reluctantly put down his chopsticks, and bowed deeply to Xu Mu.

"As the lord said, compared with it, the signature dishes of the three major restaurants are really like leftovers and food for beggars."

Fan Zhu's expression was complicated, and his tone was full of emotion.

Thinking back to the previous questioning of the lord, he was even more ashamed.

Fan Zhu was even more excited because he witnessed the preparation methods of these three dishes.

A soldier who doesn't know much about cooking can make such delicious food, if it's handed over to a chef...

Isn't it delicious in the world?
If such delicacy cannot be called delicacy, then there may be nothing in the world that cannot be swallowed.

Fan Zhu is sure that once such a delicacy is born, all the diners in Luoyang City will go crazy.

The era of the three major restaurants will never return!

Enter the era when the restaurant of Wanmin Company is dominant!

Fan Zhu's reaction was within Xu Mu's expectations.

Just kidding, he made all the chicken essence, and combined with the wok, he can fully integrate the deliciousness of the chicken essence into the food. If this fails, then his time travel will be in vain.

Traveling to this era, Xu Mu found out that the favorite staple food of people all over the world is mutton, followed by fish, and some daily staple foods, such as pasta and bread.

It can be said that the three major restaurants in Luoyang are the representatives of the world's gourmet cuisine and the world's eating habits.

As for pork, few people eat it.

According to Xu Mu's vision, when the pork grows to a large scale, He Ruozhuang can be completely transformed into Gao Lao... Ahem, it's a pig farm.

At that time, he will use the restaurant to promote pork to the whole world again.

Become a world-renowned pork dealer and director of Dasui Pig Farm.

At that time, He Ruozhuang's pork output will also be a huge industry.

If he can cover the whole world and become extremely rich, then he will have a place.

Fan Zhu, who was bending over to eat non-stop with chopsticks, suddenly put down his chopsticks. Well, the main reason was that both he and Wang Zhao ate up the three plates of fish.

The plate was licked all over.

Besides Fan Zhu, Wang Zhao was the most shocked.

He even vaguely felt that he was a peerless chef who was delayed by joining the army.

He never thought that he could make such delicious food.

After Fan Zhu put down his chopsticks, he licked his lips, and said seriously: "My lord, I have a wok and chicken essence. Within a month, my subordinates promise that my Wanmincheng restaurant will become the largest restaurant in Luoyang! I just don't know what my lord is going to do." What is the name for the restaurant?"

Xu Mu stopped eating after just a few mouthfuls, mainly because Wang Zhao's cooking skills were really bad.

And he is from modern times, and he has eaten a lot of delicious food.

The taste buds have already been stimulated by various condiments.

Hearing Fan Zhu's request for instructions, Xu Mu pondered for a while, and three words appeared in his mind.

"Let's call Xianweiju, and be more high-profile. In addition, if we want to fight out from the crowding out of the three major restaurants, we must use ruthless tactics. The main dish of Xianweiju is Xianwei Roasted Whole Lamb. The world is fresh, fairy soup cakes."

Fan Zhu opened his mouth wide enough to hold an egg.

What the lord said is simply to openly declare war on the three major restaurants.

There are woks and chicken essences in Xianweiju who have found a new way, and they will surely be able to come from behind, but the protagonist has adopted such a drastic method.

He was thinking about whether he should be so reckless and directly kill the three local snakes head-on.

But Xu Mu noticed the hesitation in Fan Zhu's expression, patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Actually, we should use a soft policy, but the world is in chaos right now, and time is not waiting for us. Wanmin Company must develop as soon as possible, sweep the world, and play its role It works."

"Don't forget, the true role of the Wanmin Company."

After Fan Zhu heard the words, his body trembled and he bowed deeply.

Before departure, the lord said that he was not interested in money.

The real role of Wanmin Company is to obtain information from all over the world.

Walking out of the kitchen, Fan Zhu murmured the last words of the lord: "Wherever the sun shines, there must be merchants of the Wanmin Company."

Others do business for the purpose of getting rich, but the main business is for the purpose of seizing the world!
