    Huaiyang cuisine itself is characterized by the four characters "harmony, refinement, freshness, and newness", which is unique among many Chinese cuisines, especially in line with modern people's life philosophy of focusing on health preservation, and has become popular all over the country in recent years.

To cook Huaiyang cuisine well, the chef's fine skills are very important. He needs to be familiar with all kinds of ingredients and various cooking techniques. Only by knowing the best can he make the best dishes.

Knowing these backgrounds, Yun Yun is looking forward to using Yan Zhen's skills, what kind of dishes will she choose to show her abilities?

Maybe Yan Zhen will be able to integrate the techniques of Huaiyang cuisine into Sichuan cuisine and make other innovative dishes after returning home.

China's chef industry has been a major folk skill since ancient times. Although it is a skill that is difficult to be refined, it is a traditional craftsman with thousands of years of experience.

Since entering New China, the chef industry has also begun to continuously innovate itself. Through the continuous evolution of various cooking skills and the integration of culinary concepts from all over the world, the Chinese culinary art industry is now constantly introducing new ones, almost explosive development. Various new dishes and new concepts are almost It can turn upside down every year. As an art, cooking has a strong vitality.

Yun Yun herself likes to cook, because she likes the joy of creating new things when watching the ingredients turn into beautiful food in her hands.

But she also understands that chefs like Yan Zhen will definitely have more lofty ideals. They also have better strengths, can promote Chinese cooking to the world, and pass on the happiness of enjoying delicious food to everyone.

She respects these people very much. Every industry is driven by such a small group of people, so that it can make continuous progress and converge into the progress of all mankind.

I don't know why she thought so much, but when she came to her senses, Yan Zhen's first dish had already been served.

Yan Zhen wore a tall hat when she came out, obviously she came out without taking it off after she was busy in the kitchen. She came over with a plate by herself, and put a small basin on the plate on the table.

"This is Jiusi soup. I checked the literature. When Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, this dish was made in this way."

Yan Zhen put down the dishes, said a few words, then turned around and left, because the kitchen had to hold time.

Yun Yun was a little dazed when she heard "Nine Silk Soup" at first, but when she looked at the contents of the soup pot, she immediately understood that this is the most famous dish in Huaiyang cuisine, an improved version of Dazhugansi.

An improved version of extreme luxury.

Use dried shredded tofu and cut it into thinner filaments than match sticks, add shredded ham, shredded bamboo shoots, shredded whitebait, shredded fungus, shredded mushrooms, shredded seaweed, shredded egg skin, shredded chicken, and add various condiments Cooked in delicious chicken broth.

Each kind of silk is very thin. At first glance, the things in the soup basin are colorful, but they don't look messy. All kinds of filaments with a sense of layering are stacked together, like colorful flowers gathered in a pot In the clear pool water.

Yun Yun first scooped up a little soup with a spoon. The chicken soup is fresh and moist, full of flavor but not greasy. Various seasonings are blended together without competing with each other. The overall taste is soft and moist. It should be fresh, Salty, moist and smooth.

Take another bite of the various shreds in it, and they all subtly add the umami taste of the chicken soup, but they don't cover up the taste of the ingredients themselves. The little bit of seafood in the whitebait shreds enhances the overall taste like a finishing touch, and the taste is very good.

In a pot of soup, there are seafood, river delicacies, land delicacies, mushrooms, and fresh meat. The taste of this dish is mainly umami, no wonder it is served as the first dish, which is especially appetizing.

After Yun Yun took two bites, she suddenly felt hungry.

The phone suddenly vibrated twice, and when I took it out to look at it, it was Qi Ziling's WeChat: Is the food served?

Yun Yun directly took a picture of the soup bowl and sent it to her.

Qi Ziling quickly replied: How stingy, treat you with some filaments, how many pots will you eat to be full?

Yun Yun: ...

sent a series of ellipsis, and quickly took a few more mouthfuls, half of the soup was left in a blink of an eye.



Yan Zhen brought the second dish and looked at the soup pot. She also showed a look of surprise, put down the second dish, and asked Yun Yun : "Have you tasted... so much?" Embarrassed: "I'm sorry, it's so delicious, I couldn't resist eating a little more."

Yan Zhen hurriedly asked: "It's okay, what do you think of this Jiusi soup?"

Yun Yun thought for a while and answered cautiously : "It depends on the time and place. If it is the opening and ending dish, it is very good, but if it is placed during the banquet, it is easy to be overwhelmed by other rich dishes, and it is not very impressive."

Yan Yan Zhen suddenly took out a small notebook from his pocket, took a small black pen, and wrote and drew on the notebook. Seeing Yunyun looking at her, he motioned for a moment: "Tell me, I'll write it down.

" Embarrassed:

"I, these are amateur opinions, and I'm not a gourmet, so I can't refer to them..."

Yan Zhen held the pen seriously, put it on her cheek, and stared:

"The diners we serve in the building also all You are an amateur, so of course you should refer to the opinions of amateurs. The more you talk, the better it will be for the development of our building, and I will have more ideas for adjustment, so your opinion is very important."

Yun Yun was speechless, I feel that what I eat is not a dish, but a strategic route!

However, she also has a question. Today's big boiled dried shredded silk basically does not use particularly complicated materials, but Yan Zhen deliberately looked through ancient books and found out the ingredients of this dish that Qianlong ate when he was desperate for extravagance.

Yan Zhen, who has always been forging ahead and likes to create new dishes, why did she return to ancient books to find inspiration this time?

"Why did you think of finding the ingredients for this dish from ancient books this time? Don't you always like to cook innovative dishes?" Yun Yun asked.

"My habit when learning a dish is to first find out how it originated. I first find out how it was made, understand what the chef who created it at that time thought, and what was the inspiration for making this dish, so that I know In what direction should we innovate?"

In order to answer the question, Yan Zhen put the notebook and pen on the table, sat down first, and had a serious conversation with Yun Yun.

Yun Yun was in awe.

It can't be said to be a characteristic of the industry, but chefs have always been a choice for people at the bottom when they have nowhere to go. Unless it is a culinary family that has been passed down from generation to generation, there are very few chefs who like to check records and explore principles, and their cultural level is limited.

Therefore, it highlights the preciousness of chefs like Yan Zhen who are willing to study in depth and summarize research.

Because of the respect for Yan Zhen, Yun Yun carefully tasted every dish after that for a long time.

Steamed crab meat lion head, soft-boiled eel and other dishes are all dishes that require a lot of skill from the chef, and Yan Zhen cooks all of these dishes brilliantly. Chef Yangcai, he never imagined that this person just started to learn these things.

Perhaps, the culinary skills themselves are interlinked.

After eating a meal like this, Yun Yun was full soon, but she still had to continue eating for reference, which made her skirt a lot tighter afterwards.

Fortunately, time was tight, so Yan Zhen only cooked three or four dishes, and she didn't need to eat them all, otherwise Yun Yun really doubted that she would not be able to go back.

The two chatted about cooking skills, and the number of customers gradually increased after the restaurant opened. Yan Zhen simply took off the chef's clothes and invited her to go out to the cafe in the mall to have a good talk.

Yan Zhen's chef's uniform was also meticulously dressed in a professional suit, which looked very capable, with a high collar buttoned shirt and a very serious look.

She stopped at the ordering area of ​​the cafe, and all the waiters in the restaurant, regardless of gender, looked over, and the orderers were even more attentive: "

What do you want to order?"

Among them, it can be regarded as a very good-looking type, and it looks even better today with a little makeup.

What to do, after hanging around with the dazzling Qi Ziling for too long, Yun Yun looks like ordinary people, and can no longer tell the difference between ordinary people's good looks.

Yun Yun ordered a cup of sweet and greasy cappuccino, while Yan Zhen ordered an American style. The two sat down in a corner and continued talking about the topic just now.

"What do you think is the current trend in the popular catering industry?"

Yan Zhen asked such high-level topics, but Yun Yun didn't stop at all. These are all things she has thought about, and she usually only worries about no one to communicate with. Now when I meet Yan Zhen, I will pour beans from the bamboo tube.

When she was talking, although Yan Zhen could still be unsmiling, her eyes were shining, she was obviously very excited, and she echoed a few times from time to time.

After drinking the coffee, Yan Zhen insisted on taking Yun Yun home. Neither of them had a car, so they took a taxi to the gate of Yun Yun's home, and Yun Yun got off the car.

Yan Zhen hesitated to speak, and finally made up her mind to ask:

"Is there... no one else in your family?"

Yun Yun was surprised that she would ask this, and then remembered the live broadcast event, probably Yan Zhen had seen the one that Qi Ziling appeared before live streaming.

"It's gone now."

Yan Zhen quickly asked,

"Then can I go and see your live broadcast room?"

Yun Yun was a little embarrassed. Her house has never been seen by outsiders. Although she respects Yan Zhen very much, after all, Yan Zhen has only known each other for a few days. She feels that it is not safe to bring her into the house, so she politely refuses:

"I'm sorry, I didn't clean it up, the house might be messy, maybe next time."

Yan Zhen tried to hide her disappointment, frowned and smiled bitterly:

"Well, thank you today, see you next time."

Back home, Yun Yun sent a text message to Qi Ziling, and immediately received a video call from the other party.

Qi Ziling was in the hotel room opposite, frowning, looked Yun Yun's face up and down, and then said angrily:

"Why did you come back so late? Didn't you finish your meal long ago?"

Yun Yun Yun smiled good-naturedly:

"I went to drink a cup of coffee later."

"Look, I said that she plotted against you and drank coffee... I'm afraid she still wants to drink at your house?"

"Speaking of this ... She did say that she wanted to watch my live broadcast, but I didn't let her in."

"What's going on! We've only known each other for two days and now we're thinking of getting in the room!"

Qi Ziling furrowed his eyebrows in anger, and still didn't damage the picture The beauty of the face.

When I went out, I was used to seeing ordinary people on the road, and when I came back to see Qi Ziling again, Yun Yun was fascinated by her beauty again, so she had to laugh a few times.

"Actually, she's a workaholic. What we're talking about today is all about cooking."

After Yun Yun finished speaking, Qi Ziling over there turned away and looked out of the screen with a confused and sad expression on his face.

Yun Yun's heart was about to break seeing the beauty in such a sad state. After waiting for a while, seeing that Qi Ziling was silent, she asked herself,

"Why are you silent?"

Qi Ziling turned her head slowly, her eyes unexpectedly With a little tear in his eyes, he said sadly:

"Dizzy... Do you feel that I have no common language with you and cannot communicate?"

"Ah... no..."

"Do you think that I can't share cooking skills with you, do you think I'm superficial?"

"How come..."

"Then do you think that I'm not as close as that chef to you?"

"Eh..."

"If you had to choose between the chef and me, who would you choose?"

"You."

Yun Yun blurted out, and realized what she had just said, her cheeks flushed.

Qi Ziling was opposite, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes just now, and now he laughed and rolled on the sofa.

"Sure enough, I won! Hahahaha!"

Yun Yun finally understood:

"You were acting just now!"

Damn it, cheating her sympathy!

"I don't act. I never have to act with you. I love you, so I am willing to expose my truest self in front of you, even if you will hurt me."

Qi Ziling suddenly became serious again, his eyes were as gentle as water.

Yun Yun was speechless for a moment, and asked her: "Where did you learn your face-changing skills? It's so exquisite."

Qi Ziling: "My face is all changed for you."

Yun Yun: "...This love talk is too rustic It's..."

I can't listen anymore!
