The strongest Shannon

Chapter 129 The Key Secret
After a few people talked in the kitchen, Chang Wenxiang went out to discuss with Li Weihai. After making a few phone calls, he followed Chen Fang and sat in the hall directly, while Chen Erniu was busy serving tea and water.

"Let me just say this, this time the head office actually entrusted us to inspect your vegetarian food series. The head office's plan is to expand the recipes of "food is the sky", and at the same time use your signboard of Chen Zhuang Lingquan, Chen Fang, what do you do?" What do you think?"

After being seated, Chang Wenxiang didn't bother to go around in circles, and straight to the point stated her purpose of coming to Chenzhuang this time, but Li Weihai at the side didn't speak. It seems that the two of them are no longer the relationship between the store manager and the chef, and they seem to have got it The promotion of the head office of Food for the Sky.

Chen Fang smiled, glanced in the direction of the kitchen and said, "Brother Chang is very accomplished in cooking, I know that, I think you should be able to make a similar series of this vegetarian meal after watching it just now, and this should also be your responsibility. The reason for this?"

Chang Wenxiang smiled awkwardly, nodded and said: "That's right, the main store knows that we are familiar with you, so they let the two of us come here together, in fact, it is with the idea of ​​visiting and studying."

Chen Fang smiled when he heard the words, and said that it was a visit and study, but in fact it was to find out the specific methods of these fasting meals, and then they could cooperate only on the name, which is quite authentic.

If you are not authentic, you can even leave Baiweiju directly. After learning how to do it, Shiweitian can develop a series of new dishes by yourself.

The flavor of the Zhaifan series is relatively unique, but it also has great limitations. At least in the surrounding area of ​​Qingshan Town, the market is actually very limited. After all, although the country people will be a little enthusiastic about the blessing meeting, they will still treat it from the most simple values. .

No matter how exquisite the vegetarian food is, it is made of ordinary materials such as bean tendon mushrooms. In the eyes of the country people, these cannot be compared with real meat. It depends on the group's concept and attitude towards food, and it is difficult to change.

In this regard, it is even more advantageous for Shiweitian to open branches in various cities, because it is no longer the era of material scarcity, and the attitude of urban people towards things has already tended to pursue freshness and taste.

To put it simply, the urban residents with a higher standard of living have changed their diet from simply filling their stomachs to tasting delicious food, while the rural people, at least within the scope of Qingshan Town, still focus on filling their stomachs and nourishing them.

This point can be seen from the sales of emerald green: although the price of emerald green sold in Baiweiju is directly the first-tier price, and there is no extra price added, the sales volume is not high, and it is more used as a kind of Just match.

But in the city, no matter whether it is Shi Wei Tian or Hu Bing's Ding Shi Xuan, Jade Green itself is already a very popular sign, and has even developed many ways to eat it. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is popular all over the city.

In the same way, the market for vegetarian food series around Qingshan Town is very small, and if the big hotels such as Shiweitian are allowed to operate, it is likely to cause a new round of food trends.

Facing such a huge blank market, Shiweitianken's intention to cooperate is quite authentic. Of course, their main purpose is to use the movable type signs of Yongling Spring and even Lingyu in Chenzhuang.

Chang Wenxiang is a chef, and what he watched in the kitchen just now is enough for him to master the basic methods of these series. If he wants, he can even explore more tricks. It seems that Baiweiju has no choice.

However, Chen Fang still smiled with the victory in his hands, and didn't care about Chang Wenxiang's embarrassment or any gloomy look.

"Brother Chang, this is your job. I don't blame you for doing this." Chen Fang squinted and smiled, "But if you only plan to buy signs, I'm afraid it won't work, because you can't make authentic ones." Baiweiju vegetarian meal is here!"

Chang Wenxiang was taken aback, then glared and said, "How is that possible? It's just using bean gluten mixed with flour and fungus, and using a knife to carve it into the shape of a meat dish!" When it comes to professional issues, Chang Wenxiang is still very confident.

Li Weihai on the side also thought it was true, and looked at Chen Fang with some doubts; Chen Fang and Chen Erniu, who was cautious on the side, smiled at each other, showing full confidence.

Chang Wenxiang and the two looked even more puzzled, and Chen Fang said when he saw this, "Well, there is a small kitchen next to it for emergency use, and all kinds of common seasonings are available in pots, pans and pans. It's not as good as Brother Chang and Er Niu Let me make a vegetarian fish together, and let Mr. Li taste it, how about it?"

"Okay! You underestimate your big brother Chang too much," Chang Wenxiang got up immediately after hearing this, glanced at Chen Erniu who was smiling innocently, and said, "Brother, I am not targeting you. There’s really nothing you can’t learn!”

Chen Erniu still smiled foolishly and did not answer, but secretly gave Chen Fang a thumbs-up, and said in a low voice, "Fortunately, you have the foresight!" After that, he took Chang Wenxiang to the small kitchen and provided all kinds of basic tools Material.

Seeing that both sides got into the kitchen and started to get busy, Li Weihai was very puzzled and said, "Hey Chen Fang, tell me what's going on. Looking at you, it seems that Lao Chang must have stumbled. It doesn't make sense!"

Chen Fang explained with a smile: "That's right, Brother Chang's cooking skills are definitely much better than Brother Er Niu's. Whether it's basic skills or what, there is no doubt about it, but cooking is not only about these!"

Seeing that Li Weihai was still confused, Chen Fang didn't explain anymore, but just served him tea, signaling that he would know when it came out of the pot.

Chang Wenxiang's understanding of dishes and ingredients is very good, and Chen Erniu's side is already familiar with the vegetarian food series, so they didn't keep Chen Fang waiting for a long time, and both sides were completed.

Seeing Chen Erniu and Chang Wenxiang walking over with a plate of vegetarian fish respectively, Li Weihai urged with bright eyes: "I'm drooling when I smell this fragrance, I never thought that this kind of ingredients can make such a delicious dish." Here comes the food."

Confident Chang Wenxiang put down the vegetarian fish in his hand, smelled the dish made by Chen Erniu, and frowned in doubt, as if judging the difference from what he had made.

Two plates of vegetarian fish were placed on the table. Chen Fang looked at them and couldn't help sighing. Chang Wenxiang is indeed an experienced chef. The dishes made with the same ingredients are indeed better than Chen Er's in terms of exquisite shape and color. The cow is more than one step higher, this is the gap in his own cooking skills.

Chen Erniu also noticed this, shook his head seriously and said, "Brother Chang's cooking skills are superb, much better than mine, hehe, his color and shape are far superior to mine."

Chang Wenxiang wasn't humble either, so he took a serious look at Chen Erniu's and said, "Your ones are also very good, much better than the chefs in ordinary restaurants." He sniffed them again, but the look of doubt on his face became heavier. He opened his mouth to speak, but stopped in the end.

Seeing this, Chen Fang asked for a few pairs of chopsticks, Li Weihai couldn't wait to take them and started to start. After all, he picked up Chen Erniu's first chopsticks as a guest, and Chen Fang picked up the one made by Chang Wenxiang and tasted it.

The two of them didn't speak after tasting each other several times, but the smile on Chen Fang's face became wider, while Li Weihai's expression was a little weird.

Chang Wenxiang on the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he picked up his chopsticks and tasted it separately, and felt quite satisfied when he ate it, but when he tasted Chen Erniu's, his expression suddenly became a little unsightly.

"How is this possible?!" Without waiting for Li Weihai and Chen Fang to comment, Chang Wenxiang looked at Chen Erniu in disbelief and said, "Using so many bean gluten and mushrooms, why doesn't yours have any raw taste? Also, how did this smell of meat come from?"

Chen Erniu smiled and didn't open his mouth, Chang Wenxiang turned to Chen Fang who was smiling when he saw this, he had to ask for an explanation, if he didn't understand it, he wouldn't finish it.

This situation is no longer a problem of cooperation itself, but Chang Wenxiang's confusion and even shock in cooking skills. Chen Erniu's dish has exceeded his understanding of the ingredients, which is obviously not at the same level as Chen Erniu's cooking skills correspond.

I am afraid that anyone would not be able to understand it. It is obvious that the mouthfeel tastes like bean tendon mushrooms, but what is presented in the mouth is almost a fake meat flavor, and carefully discerning can distinguish the umami taste of the ingredients themselves, without any Fishy or greasy.

Chang Wenxiang stared at Chen Fang with staring eyes, and even forgot to sit down and put down the chopsticks in her hand.

Chen Fang pulled him to sit down, and then said to Chen Erniu: "Brother Erniu, go and get some things, and let Brother Chang take a look and he should understand."

Chen Erniu was a little hesitant, as if he was worried that even the last secret would be learned, and they left Baiweiju to develop the vegetarian food series by themselves, but seeing Chen Fang's determined expression, he got up and went to the big kitchen.

"Something, what is it?" Li Weihai was also feeling embarrassed for his old friend. After all, it was a bit embarrassing for a high-level chef to lose to the chef of a small restaurant in the village. Are you going to cheat?"

Chang Wenxiang shook her head: "There is no way to cheat in this kind of thing, the ingredients must be the same, but his method completely eliminates the smell of bean gluten and mushroom itself, and makes the meat smell so strong, which is strange .”

While talking, Chen Erniu had abducted back, Chen Fang found out a small piece of spice he handed over and said: "Actually, the secret lies in this spice, does Brother Chang know this spice?"

Chang Wenxiang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly snatched it, looked it over and over again, put it under his nose and smelled it for a long time, finally even took a small piece and put it in his mouth, savoring the taste carefully.

After a while, he finally opened his mouth and said, "It's a bit like cinnamon, but it's very different...you use this to eliminate the smell of bean gluten and mushrooms, but this taste is not right!"

Chen Fang raised his thumb and said with a smile: "Brother Chang is amazing. The one you took is relatively fresh and has a strong bitter taste. The one used for vegetarian food has been processed in a certain way."

Seeing that Li Weihai and Chang Wenxiang were dubious, Chen Fang continued to explain: "This is the wild osmanthus tree that grows on the mountain here. When I was poor and couldn't eat meat, I liked to mix bean tendon mushrooms with this seasoning. It can eat meat The taste is strong, but the bitterness is also strong; I figured out some ways to get rid of the bitterness." He said and handed over another soaked one.

Chang Wenxiang took it and broke a piece into his mouth, his eyes lit up immediately, he nodded repeatedly and said: "This taste is right!" Then he lowered his head and asked about the dish made by Chen Erniu, the doubt on his face disappeared immediately .

In fact, Chen Fang's so-called soaking method is to use spiritual energy to soak for a certain period of time. This was a successful attempt when preparing the vegetarian food series.

"It turns out that this wild cinnamon bark and your brewing method are the secrets of your vegetarian meals!" Li Weihai and Li Weihai both fully understood by now, and shook their heads with wry smiles.

Chen Fang nodded with a smile and said, "That's right, although it's easy to find wild osmanthus on Green Mountain, but the really useful ones are the same as emerald green, which is unique to Chenzhuang! Now, do we have to change the way of cooperation?"
