Chapter 1990

It was not that gnawing on pork trotters was inferior to others, but the people present were either the Prime Minister or the Foreign Affairs official who received the Prime Minister. They definitely did not want the other party to see them gnawing on pork trotters.

However, how could there be any problem with Yuan Zhou’s work? for the sake of the menu this time, he had considered very carefully for a long time before deciding on it.

When Li Yanhua used his chopsticks to poke the pig’s hand, the skin and meat were separated from the bone very smoothly. The top was sprinkled with sand ginger and some sauce-colored seasoning. The contrast between the snow-white pig’s hand and the dark-colored sauce was very distinct, adding to the alluring taste.

“It’s this well-cooked?” Li Yanhua couldn’t care less about the magical scene just now. He picked up the meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

The pig’s hand wasn’t completely cold. It was a little warm. After coming into contact with the temperature of the human mouth, the temperature began to rise. The unique taste of the sand ginger spread in the mouth. With a little sweetness and spiciness, it matched the soft and sticky texture of the pig’s hand perfectly.

“This taste is too good. It even has a sour taste of lemon. It’s the best appetizer I’ve ever had. I can eat another 20 pig trotters without a problem.” Li Yanhua squinted his eyes.

He had eaten a lot of head chef opello’s dishes, but compared to this plate of pig trotters, at least in terms of appetizing cold dishes, it was indeed inferior.

“It’s not that it’s too well-cooked, but rather, it’s his knife skill. This knife skill is too exaggerated. How did he manage to separate the bone and flesh with just one poke and grasp it just right?” Tang Lei understood as soon as he ate, but he felt that his current cooking skills were not professional enough. He could not even see the chef’s knife skills.

If Cheng zhaomei was here, she would definitely tell him,””It’s normal that you can’t see it. Even with master’s knife skills, he might not be able to understand it even if it was 0.5 times.”

If they weren’t professional chefs, the way they marveled at the miracle was to eat a few more pieces. Originally, it was one piece per person. Those who were faster would have a second piece, such as the experienced leader song. Those who were slower could only eat one piece, such as President Li Yanhua.

For the second dish, Yuan Zhou chose Sichuan cuisine and also the signature dish of master chef Restaurant, translucent beef slices. Of course, the translucent beef slices this time were different from those in the past. It was so thin that even light could be seen through it, which was only at the elementary level.

“Is this an empty plate?” Although the middle-aged man looked ordinary, his status was not low. He was one of the envoys who accompanied Li Yanhua to visit, but he was a little short-sighted.

He was talking about a very beautiful peony flower plate. An exquisite and beautiful peony was placed in the center of the plate. The green leaves and vines wrapped around the plate and were hidden at the bottom of the plate. It looked like a peony on the table, rich and magnificent.

Even Li Yanhua’s vision of 2.0 was barely enough, let alone a short-sighted middle-aged man.

If he wasn’t sure that empty plates couldn’t be served, he would have asked the same question.

Tang Lei didn’t want to speak anymore. He had already been amazed by his cutting skills, but he didn’t expect them to improve further.

“Let’s just eat. ” Tang Lei sighed and stopped thinking about learning knife skills.

After all, his culinary skills were still far from Yuan Zhou ‘s, even a little worse than Cheng zhaomei’ s. Thus, it was still okay for him to watch the show with a layman.

“This should be head chef Yuan’s signature dish, translucent beef slices.” Leader song immediately picked up his chopsticks.

Previously, when the dishes were served, they had sung the names of the dishes, mainly because they were immersed in the fragrance of the pig’s hand and did not hear other people’s words.

Leader song was smart and quick-witted. Even if he didn’t remember the names of the four dishes, he had a rough impression of them. Therefore, he reached for the colorful petals with his chopsticks, although he couldn’t see clearly where the dishes were.

The chopsticks didn’t feel like they had hit an empty plate. When he picked it up, it was light and thin as a cicada’s wing. If he didn’t see a trace of meat color, he would have thought that he didn’t pick up anything.

With leader song taking the lead, Li Yanhua followed closely. The others also began to move their chopsticks and quickly stuffed the food into their mouths.

Numbing, spicy, fragrant, and with a little crispness. Of course, Yuan Zhou had controlled the spiciness very well and it was all acceptable.

From the light and soft pork trotters to the fresh, spicy, and crisp translucent beef slices, it was as if the season had changed. The feast on the tip of the tongue was irresistible.

“This tastes really good. This is a Chinese cuisine from Sichuan, right? the food in Chengdu also suits our taste.” Li Yanhua started mumbling to leader song, who was beside him.

“Head chef Yuan is the name card of our Chengdu City and also the name card of our Chinese cooking circle. His craftsmanship is outstanding, and he is worthy of this responsibility.” Leader song said exultantly.

The four cold dishes were not even enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the people at the few tables. Although everyone adhered to etiquette, the empty plates were very eye-catching.

Yuan Zhou’s timing was quite accurate. Without making everyone feel anxious, the hot dishes were served.

The first dish was related to crab. After all, Singapore was a country that loved to eat crabs, and opello’s signature dish was crab fried with chili.

Yuan Zhou didn’t cook the stir-fried crab. Instead, he used another method to make a crab with glutinous rice.

The dishes were placed in a bowl that looked like a claypot. When they were first served, a hint of fragrance could be faintly smelled. The fragrance of wine and meat mixed together, and there was a little bit of an indescribable smell.

“Thump!”

When the lid was removed, a burst of steam first appeared, followed by a strong fragrance.

“Why does this crab look so delicious? there seems to be something underneath?” Li Yanhua said as he waved his hand. He had learned this from leader song.

The shell of the crab was easily flipped over, revealing the crab meat that was neatly arranged inside. Each piece looked almost the same size. Below it was a layer of slightly yellow glutinous rice, and the smell of rice was wafting into people’s nostrils.

Yuan Zhou had borrowed the principle of the pot rice to make baked crabs this time, so the taste was quite good.

“It’s soft, tender, fragrant, and full of seafood. I didn’t know that crabs were so delicious.” Li Yanhua felt that he had probably eaten a fake crab in the past.

He had never felt that crabs were so delicious before. Even the slightly burnt glutinous rice had been mixed with the taste of the crab. Coupled with the soft and sticky texture, it was exceptionally delicious.

However, there were quite a few people at the table. Li Yanhua’s speed was fast, and coupled with his high status, he didn’t eat much before it was gone. He could only switch to other dishes.

For example, the yuan family’s roasted suckling pig with a burning fragrance, once again showing the world Yuan Zhou’s top cutting skills, the fish head tofu soup with clear and white soup and tender tofu, the sweet honey sauce and the fresh and elegant Hundred Flowers fish belly, and so on.

When each dish was served, it was fragrant and the shape was perfect. After a while, the plates were clean and white.

It wasn’t that someone licked the plate. After all, they couldn’t bring themselves to do so. One reason was that Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills were truly superb and the sauce wouldn’t stain the plate. Another reason was that the person who ate it was very careful and didn’t miss even the slightest residue.
