Reborn – Super Chef

The yard has been covered with weeds for a long time, and it is full of a rancid atmosphere. In this pile of weeds, there is a tree about three meters thick with a bowl and leaves. Small, this kind of tree is very rare, and most people do n’t even know it when they see it. Even Chen Jiao and Chen Tian ’s younger brother, after their father passed away, they never knew what this tree with little ornamental temperament was.

Even for a while, Chen Jiao deliberately found a lot of information, but he still had no idea.

However, after he brought Ye Chui today, Ye Cui suddenly saw this tree, and suddenly said with some surprise: "Chen Jiao, in your old courtyard ... why there is a pepper tree?"

"Prickly ash tree?"

Chen Tian, ​​who was leaning his entire body into the kitchen on the side of the yard, turned his head strangely and looked at the little tree that he had always felt very inexplicable: "Peppertree? Mr. Ye Chui, you mean ... you know this Planting trees? "

"Of course, this is a pepper tree." Ye Chuo walked to the front of the tree and carefully looked at the tree. As a **** of food, he had a deep understanding of various ingredients and the origin of some spices. Naturally, some hard work has also been done. This pepper tree was specially studied by the leaf drip. Even in order to find the best pepper, he also deliberately visited some of the origin of the pepper but personally searched for it.

While looking at the pepper tree in front of him, Ye Chu was even more surprised: "This tree is still a very famous Dahongpao ▽ pepper!"

Mapo tofu was created by the ancestors of Chen Tian and Chen Jiao. Zanthoxylum bungeanum is an indispensable seasoning in this dish. Mapo tofu without prickly ash is full of shortcomings. The leaf is originally incomplete. Still wondering if Chen Tian Chen Jiao's grandfather moved to the United States, and because there is no reason for peppercorns, Mapo tofu lacks the taste of hemp and becomes what he is now, but now he knows it. This is not the case at all. At least Chen Jiao and Chen Tian ’s parents did not forget the existence of peppercorns. They did not know what method was used to deliberately transplant a peppercorn tree into this yard.

Ye Chu can be sure that when Chen Tian Chen Jiao's father made Mapo tofu, there must be peppercorns, but in Chen Tian's generation, because he did not know the secret of this tree, he did not use the peppercorn seasoning. Product.

And now Ye Cui followed Chen Jiao to this yard, and he just saw this pepper tree. This may be a fate.

"My father didn't know where to transplant this tree. When I was a kid, my sister and I thought that this tree was ugly, and I didn't know why my father planted this tree ... It turned out that it was for pepper." Chen Jiao I thought of something, and there was an expression of sudden enlightenment on my face, "My sister and I are actually not good at cooking. I have no interest in cooking, and I have no plans to inherit the restaurant. I have never paid attention to the pepper tree. ... Later, my dad passed away. My sister made Chen's tofu based on the taste of the dish and recalling some of his father's experiences, but the matter of this pepper tree was ignored. "

"Your Chen family's tofu was originally intended to contain pepper trees, but your sister forgot the flavor." Ye Cui said with a smile. Then there was another sad color on his face, "Unfortunately, it is only in May, although there is this pepper tree here. But the pepper will not mature until the month, which is not in time ..."

Hearing Ye Cui's words, Chen Jiao was also disappointed. But suddenly he thought of something, his eyes lit up: "You wait for me first."

In this way, he hurriedly ran into a hall on the side, and after a while he dragged a dead wood branch out of the room, saying at the same time: "A gust of wind hung on August 15 last year. I happened to have something here. I saw a branch scraped from this tree. I threw it into the house. The house was very dry, but the branch was dried up directly. Mr. Ye Chui, look at this. Are the dark red particles on it the pepper you said? "

"let me see!"

Ye Chui hurriedly walked over to look at the branch. The leaves on the branch had already dried up completely, but on the tops of some branches, you can see several dried prickly ash fruit grains, because they are naturally dried, the texture is very good. Ye Ye picked a pinch and sent it to his mouth to taste it. He felt satisfied and he said, "Yes, this is Zanthoxylum bungeanum, and the appearance of Zanthoxylum bungeanum is pretty good. The ones on the market are even better! "

This pepper is Dahongpao pepper, and the time is really a coincidence. When the windy branches were scrapped last year, it was just the ripening period of the pepper. The pepper particles on the branches were full. After the air drying and dehydration, the fruit cracked and sucked deeply. Breath, as if you can smell the unique aroma of peppercorns.

"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence." Chen Jiao also smiled.

Ye Chui nodded with a smile: "Let's start picking the pepper on this branch, it seems that the pepper on this branch is enough to cope with cooking these days."

In the following time, Ye Chui and Chen Jiao squatted on the ground to pick up the pepper seeds from the pepper branch, and finally collected half of the bags. Ye Chu was satisfied with the bag and felt very satisfied, Chen Jiao I have also found the iron pan used by my father for cooking. Although it has been a long time, the iron pan is kept very neat and tidy. The two returned to the Chen's Hotel with pleasure.

After learning about the pepper tree, Han Yuyan and Li Xiuyun were naturally very happy. As a reporter, Li Xiuyun soon realized what he said: "The Chen family's tofu in Chinatown was originally flawless. , This story about pepper tree is obviously very valuable. After the Chinatown trip is completed, I must write a special topic about pepper tree. "

"Anyway, all the materials for making Mapo Tofu are ready." Ye Chui nodded. He took the chef's clothes from Han Yuyan's hands and carefully put them on his body.

Han Yuyan hurried to help him organize the neckline and buttons. In Manhanlou, this kind of thing was often done by Han Yuyan, but at this time close to Ye Chui, she suddenly couldn't help but think of what happened last night. In fact, his eyes were in contact with Ye Chuan, his face flushed, and he quickly changed his gaze: "Master, it's already worn."

"Well……"

Ye Chui nodded, pulling the sleeves of the chef's uniform. To the kitchen: "Heavy rain, you help me get started, let's start preparing."

Mapo Tofu is an authentic Sichuan cuisine. Sichuan cuisine originated in Sichuan. It is one of the most well-known cuisines in the country. It also has the reputation of common people's cuisine. Its taste is hemp, spicy, fresh, The fragrance is characteristic, and the Mapo Tofu dish is the best in spicy. In the original world of Ye Chuan, after decades of normal development, the recipe of this dish has reached perfection.

Because of the popularity of this dish. Even ordinary people can try to make one, and the menu name of almost any small restaurant will almost always have the name of the dish, Ye Chu. When the Xiaoyu home cooking is open, Mapo Tofu is one of the dishes.

There are actually many ways to use Mapo tofu, but Ye Chui has the most perfect one. This recipe seems to be simple, but it is a simple but extremely complicated dish. Chen Tian ’s Chen family In addition to the lack of seasoning of peppercorns, tofu, in terms of tofu, also lacks another important ingredient, beef.

Yes, beef is needed for Mapo tofu.

In another world. After the Chen family invented Mapo Tofu, it gradually developed this dish, and finally developed the eight-character motto for making Mapo Tofu, namely: Ma, spicy, hot, fragrant, crisp, tender, fresh, and live. This one is crisp. It is the crispy beef. The beef filling is used to make Mapo tofu. After special cooking, the beef grains are golden in color. The red cakes are not flat, one by one. The entrance is simple, the teeth are melted, which is also a major feature of Mapo tofu.

This is not what Chen Tian's Chen Tofu does.

In addition, Chen Family Tofu has another taste that is not in place, which is the work of these eight characteristics. This can be said to be a great skill of Mapo Tofu. When the tofu is served on the table, the long garlic seedlings are placed. The roots in the bowl stand upright, with verdant green azure orchids and very bright oil, just like they were chopped after being picked from geography. They are alive and well, so they are called "live".

In the entrance of the folder, the garlic seedlings were already cooked, and there was no jerky feeling at all. The garlic seedlings were fried. This is the unique ability of Mapo tofu.

It is said that during the War of Resistance Against Japan, Mapo tofu was popular in the north and south of the country. In order to do Mapo tofu well, restaurants in Zhejiang and Jiangsu also paid a lot of money to hire the master of the Chen family to legend that this garlic seedling fry is a great job.

However, because of the vegetarian movement, many historical events have changed in the world. The Mapo tofu made by the Chen family is still popular in the north and south. However, the Chen family has come to the United States for some reason, and now the Mapo tofu is renamed Chen. Pride tofu, the practice is already very authentic, although Ye Chui gave this dish a very high rating when he was late to Chen Tian ’s Mapo tofu, but in fact this dish lacks a lot of points, Chen ’s eight-character motto There are three things that Chen Tian's tofu can't do at all, hemp, crisp, and this job.

"Someone ordered Chen's tofu dish, boss, what should I do?" Ye Chui had just been cooking into the kitchen and was preparing ingredients. A waiter hurried over and said to Chen Jiao.

The hotel serves meals, but the meals are all brought from the Chen Jia restaurant opposite. Now Chen Tianxia has ordered a ban on Chen Jiao, and no longer provides meals to Chen Jiao, but many guests who come to his hotel I came here for the Chen Family Tofu. You can not only relax here, but also taste the famous Chen Family Tofu. Why not do it?

Chen Jiao looked at Ye Chui: "Master Ye Chui, please make your Ma Po tofu. I don't know how it tastes better than my sister. Can I please the guests here."

Now Chen Jiao has felt Ye Cui ’s extraordinary, he is not sure what is going on with the Chen Family ’s Tofu and Mapo Tofu, but he now believes that this teenager, who is known as the first chef of China, may make tofu It can really be compared to the Chen family's tofu that gave her whole life.

Ye Chui nodded: "Wait a moment."

This time I went to Chinatown Ye Chui to challenge Chinatown's top ten famous dishes, but I didn't expect that the first person to challenge after this place encountered an obstacle: they didn't seem to take him seriously ... but fortunately Ye Ye can now continue this competition in this way, and the judges of the competition are the diners who have admired the Chen family's tofu.

He wants these diners to adapt their taste and know what the most authentic taste of this dish looks like!

The empty hall on the first floor of the Chen ’s Hotel has a few dining tables. Guests staying in the restaurant can use it for dining here. At this time, it is more than ten o’clock in the morning. A Chinese fat man in his forties is sitting at a dining table. Looking at a penny of the newspaper, but my eyes swept the newspaper, and then I could n’t wait to see the Chen family tofu who had faced him on the street.

This fat man is the owner of a company with high prices. There are several shops here in Chinatown. Every once in a while, he will come here to find a restaurant and stay for a few days. Naturally, he does not need to live in the Chen family hotel. Inside the small hotel, but once he came, the other hotels on the street were already full. He had no choice but to live here. Originally, he thought he would be uncomfortable, but the result was an unexpected surprise ... …

The owner of this hotel is the younger brother of the owner of the Chen Hotel, so you can eat authentic Chen tofu here, and because of Chen Jiao, you can order the Chen Tofu made by the boss directly. In this hotel, the Chen family tofu in this hotel is almost always a priority. I discovered this benefit. This Chinese fat man will live in the Chen family hotel almost every time and enjoy the wonderful taste of the Chen family tofu here.

He is already an old resident in this hotel. Today, he has something to leave Chinatown to deal with a few business. Before leaving, he still wants to continue to taste the Chen family's tofu.

"Boss Zhang, your dish is here." Mapo tofu was served by Chen Jiao personally, together with a bowl of rice, the bibimbap was the most beautiful, and the Mapo tofu served by Chen Jiao was bright red. The white of the tofu, the red of the broth, and the green of the garlic seedlings are correspondingly interesting and hot, giving people a great sense of enjoyment.

However, the Chinese fat man was a little surprised: "Xiao Chen, this dish seems to be a bit different from the Chen family tofu I had eaten before ~ ​​www.readwn.com ~ And how did you get this dish from the back, not all before Was it delivered from the restaurant opposite? I ordered the Chen family tofu made by your sister. "

Chen Jiao's face changed slightly, and then he smiled and said, "It's a coincidence today, my sister is here to help you make this dish personally, and it's still her improved practice, the taste is even more delicious than before, Zhang Boss, you can give it a try, and please give me some advice for my sister. "

Temporarily speaking of this dish as being made by my sister, Chen Jiao looked forward to putting the dish and rice in front of this boss Zhang, smiling and made a tidy up.

The Chinese fat man looked at the dish, and felt his appetite widened. He could not help but took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of tofu, and slowly sent it to the entrance ... (to be continued ...)
