Chapter 1551

“I said my description was the most accurate.” Francis said proudly.

“No, I don’t think it’s that simple. There’s more to it.” Manfeld said, deep in thought.

“President, I think you’re thinking too much. I think this is the smell of China’s spring, and it’s also the smell of our France’s romantic spring. It’s because there’s a charming flower fragrance in it. It’s really strange.” Auguste squinted his eyes and took another bite of the bun.

“Yes, there is a type of petal called Chinese scholar’s flower in it. It is a long string of small white flowers. The season of blooming is from April to May, and the flowering period is only ten to fifteen days. These petals are just picked today.” Chu Xiao nodded and said.

“And in China, we have the tradition of eating flowers, which is romantic and poetic in the eyes of ancient scholars.” Chu Xiao continued.

“Oh, I think it’s interesting too.” Francis asked curiously.

“Yes, we still use flowers to make tea or essential oils. We still eat them, but this is the first time we’ve eaten this kind of flower like this.” Manfred said, nodding.

“Yes, the bone connecting tree flower is used to make soup, but it’s more used to make tea.” Auguste shrugged.

“Hey, I’m actually not interested in the flowers or anything else. I just want to know if there’s any more of this food called steamed bun.” Francis touched his stomach and continued,””After all, it’s too small. I’m not full yet.”

“I think you can take a look over there.” Chu Xiao signaled Francis to look at Yuan Zhou.

Ever since Yuan Zhou put down the microphone, he had started to prepare the ingredients for lunch. After all, he had to prepare the dishes for 200 people at once, and he was alone. Naturally, he had to prepare all the ingredients non-stop.

At the moment, Yuan Zhou was pounding the stone mortar with a thick wooden pestle. As Yuan Zhou’s arm muscles bulged slightly, the wooden pestle fell down with a moderate force, making a slight sound of “pa pa”. If one were to smell it carefully, one could even smell the fragrance of rice.

“Is this new food?” Francis was immediately attracted by Yuan Zhou’s new way of cooking and thus asked curiously.

“Yes, I think you should listen to Chairman Zhou’s explanation seriously.” Chu Qi said.

“I can’t help it. I was completely immersed in the deliciousness of this bun.” Francis pointed at the empty steamer in front of him helplessly.

“No, I think you only care about eating.” Auguste retorted without any restraint.

“Of course. You have to know that I have been thinking about head chef Yuan’s dishes ever since I ate them half a year ago.” Francis was not embarrassed at all and admitted it.

“Yes, the taste is indeed impressive.” Ogyust savored the faint fragrance in his mouth and nodded in agreement.

“I think I should have invited head chef Yuan to join the famous chef Association earlier.” Manfred said.

“Of course, I can personally write a recommendation letter for him.” Auguste immediately nodded and said enthusiastically.

In fact, not everyone could enter the chef’s Association. Ordinary people would need to be recommended by three chefs of different nationalities, and then they would have to go through an assessment before they could be approved.

This assessment includes whether you have won an international cooking competition award, as well as your reputation and honor among chefs.

It could be said that there were Chinese people in the famous chefs ‘Association, but Chu Xiao was the only one with a pure Chinese nationality. Even Zhou Shijie didn’t get into the Association.

Chu Xiao was the honorary chairman of the Asian side, and tengyuan Jiayuan was also here. He was the chairman of the Japan famous chef Association. Therefore, it was said that tengyuan Jiayuan, a Japanese who knew Chinese cuisine the best, was highly recognized.

Japan was excluded from the whole of Asia. This was not contempt, but precisely because foreign countries recognized Japanese chefs and food more.

Here, the difference between an honorary chairman and a Chairman was that an honorary chairman was an honor given by recognition and respect for the skills of the person, but it did not undertake any work tasks or responsibilities.

However, the chairman was different. He could exercise his power, and he had three recommendations, but only one honorary chairman.

Therefore, it was still very difficult to enter the famous chef Association. After all, all your opinions and ideas about cooking would be circulated and recorded in the history of chefs.

This was another way to enter the Association, and that was to have a handwritten letter of recommendation from the chairman of the North American famous chef Association, August. This way, only one person was required to recommend someone to enter the Association.

Speaking of recommendation, Manfeld and August couldn’t help looking at Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao also had a recommendation quota, but he didn’t recommend Yuan Zhou, which made the two of them feel a little strange.

“Chu, why didn’t you recommend this head chef Yuan?” Manfeld asked seriously.

After all, it was their duty to recommend excellent chefs.

August also looked at Chu Xiao curiously. Obviously, he knew that Chu Xiao respected Yuan Zhou very much and regarded him as an opponent. After all, Chu Xiao’s phone was full of videos of Yuan Zhou’s cooking exchange.

However, it was precisely because of this that Auguste was even more curious.

“Because I’m not qualified to recommend it.” Chu Xiao was quite direct and said seriously.

“What?” Before Manfeld could react, Auguste immediately understood Chu Xiao’s meaning.

“Chu, you’re a rare genius chef.” Augustus said.

“Yes, you’re very outstanding, Chu.” Manfeld nodded in affirmation.

“Of course,” Chu Xiao nodded his head as a matter of course. However, when he looked at Yuan Zhou, he couldn’t help saying,””But he’s a natural-born chef.”

“That’s right, I like this description. ” Auguste’s eyes lit up as he agreed.

“Indeed. From the moment he came in until now, he has been focusing on his food without any distraction. Other chefs would always care about other people’s comments on such an occasion, but he didn ‘t.” Manfred said, full of admiration.

Who didn’t care about other people’s comments? Moreover, it was related to the success of his personal cooking exhibition. However, under Manfeld’s observation, Yuan Zhou didn’t show any reaction to it.

Even if someone shouted that the amount of the bun was too little and not enough to eat, head chef Yuan would just calmly explain that it was a breakfast and that the amount of food they were eating at this time would not affect the lunch later.

His expression was calm and his tone was natural. There was no fluctuation at all, as if this was just an ordinary banquet and not an important cooking exhibition that concerned his career.

Now Manfeld also understood what Chu Xiao meant when he said he was not qualified.

“Speaking of which, how satisfied do you think head chef Yuan will be?” Francis was not interested in the famous chef’s Association that they were talking about, so he asked another question.

Just as Francis brought up this topic, the other members of the famous chef Association were also discussing this issue.
