Eighty years of meat poisoning has made many people unable to accept the concept of meat. Even after the ban on meat was lifted, there are still some people who maintain the habit of vegetarianism. In addition to the vegetarian group, they are the Lafayette of the Lin family. This type of people.
Whether it is for health reasons or to recite Buddha's name, they stay away from meat-eating dishes. Of course, this is not to say that they have no interest in food at all. In fact, such people are often more persistent in food.
For example, the old Buddha of the Lin family, when Ye Chui came here, the old lady sat on the sofa with a smile on her face, looking like she couldn't wait to taste the delicious food - Lin Wei was a snack connoisseur, Wu Haimei was a big one. Foodie, then this old lady is an old foodie...
"Ye Chui, you're here." Lin Wei jumped over to greet Ye Chui, and Wu Haimei was not idle either. Food was in front of her. This big foodie had completely ignored the position of his future mother-in-law, and was eager to Helping Ye Chui carry the ingredients, he asked, "Do you have any confidence in today's competition?"
"Don't worry, it's no problem." Ye Chui said with a smile.
"What a loud tone."
As soon as Ye Chui finished speaking, there was a cold snort from beside him. He turned around and saw a young man with a crew cut, wearing a suit, with a slightly angry expression on his face as if his dignity had been violated.
He looked at Ye Chui and said unhappily: "Master Ye, I heard that you have become very famous among the chefs in Xizhou recently. Mr. Han is very fond of you, but vegetarian cuisine is not an ordinary cuisine. Listen to what you say You mean, it seems that you don’t take our health pavilion seriously at all?”
"Oh, that's not what I meant." The other party glared at him, but Ye Chui looked very indifferent, "It's just that I am more confident in cooking. If you feel angry, you will lose the game later. I just apologize to you."
Lin Wei whispered in Ye Chui's ear: "Ye Chui, this person's name is Sun Li, and he is the boss of the Health Pavilion."
Then Sun Li heard what Ye Chui said. He felt that Ye Chui was arrogant, and he laughed coldly: "Okay, if our health pavilion is defeated by a young man like you today, then I will apologize to you properly."
That's all. He didn't say anything more and went straight to the three white-clothed chefs. The three chefs also talked a lot and looked at Ye Chui with somewhat hostile eyes and a very pointed attitude.
Lin Wei muttered unhappily: "This Sun Li was found by that Zhang Ying. He is just as annoying as Zhang Ying."
After all, Wu Haimei is an adult and cannot discuss other people's rights and wrongs directly, but she still whispered to Ye Chui: "Ye Chui depends on you today. If you can win this health pavilion, what will you and Weiwei do in the future? I turned a blind eye.”
"Mom!" Lin Wei immediately showed an unhappy expression.
Ye Chui chuckled and said, "Okay."
On the sofa in the living room, the old Buddha of the Lin family was sitting happily, Zhang Ying was sitting on one side, and Lin Zhengdao was sitting on the other side. At this moment, this famous rich man had a pleading expression on his face, talking to the old Buddha of the Lin family. Said: "Mom, you can just keep an eye on this game here. I have something to do at my company and I can't leave. I came to Xizhou to recuperate Hai Mei. Now her anorexia is better. I I am preparing to transfer the business back to Yanjing. There are a lot of things waiting for me to take over. This period has been the busiest time recently... "
"No matter how busy you are, it's not as good as your own body. Just leave the company's affairs to Xiaotao. Just stay here for me!" The old lady glared at her son angrily, "Helps all day long. It's not worth the loss if you're tired, you hear me?"
Zhang Ying also helped: "Yes, Mr. Lin, the body is the foundation of everything, and business is never finished. But there is only one body. Lafayette is doing this out of her own kindness. Just follow her wishes and stay here." ”
Lin Zhengdao secretly glanced at Zhang Ying with displeasure, and finally had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I'll just stay here." He then turned to look at Yu Yan, who was standing on one side, "You go first Go to the company. Tell Xiao Liu and the others that I have something to do today and I can’t get away. Let them continue working on the project we are talking about. Xiao Liu knows what I mean and he can make the decision... "
After explaining this, Yu Yan agreed and walked outside. When he passed by Ye Chui, the tall and honest man nodded and smiled at Ye Chui, which was regarded as saying hello.
Ye Chui walked up to Lin Zhengdao and Lafayette and greeted with a smile: "Uncle, grandma, hello."
"Ye Chui, you're here. I had a phone call with Mr. Han the day before yesterday and heard him talk a lot about you. I'm in for a treat today." Lin Zhengdao said to Ye Chui with a smile, his voice full of expectation.
"I won't let you down, uncle." Ye Chui said quickly, but he was wondering in his heart. Hearing Han Yuyan say that the relationship between Mr. Han and Lin Zhengdao was not harmonious, how could they still talk on the phone
"Lafayette, let me introduce to you. This is the Sun Li I mentioned to you." Seeing Ye Chui talking to Lin Zhengdao, Zhang Ying was not idle. She immediately stood up and called Sun Li over and asked Lafayette The introduction said, "Sun Li is an expert in vegetarian dishes, and his dishes pay great attention to health preservation. They are not only delicious, but also nutritious. They are very suitable for you to taste, Lafayette."
"Really? I wonder what you are going to cook, Xiao Sun?" Lafayette immediately showed a very interested expression.
Sun Li glanced at Ye Chui provocatively, and then continued: "The dish I want to cook is a classic vegetarian delicious dish - Arhat cuisine!"
"Arhat cuisine?" Lafayette asked expectantly upon hearing the name, "What is Arhat cuisine?"
Sun Li smiled and did not answer Lafayette's question. Instead, he looked at Ye Chui and said with a smile: "I heard that Master Ye knows a lot about food. Even Mr. Han admires him very much in this regard. Arhat Cuisine As a classic Chinese dish, I wonder if Master Ye would like to tell you about the origin of this dish?”
Following Sun Li's words, all eyes were focused on Ye Chui. Sun Li was deliberately making things difficult for Ye Chui.
But Ye Chui smiled indifferently, and then said: "Okay, actually I have done some research on Luohan cuisine. This dish is also called Luohanzhai, which originated in the Tang Dynasty. The name of the dish comes from Sakyamuni. The Eighteen Arhats, disciples of the Buddha. When Sakyamuni Buddha passed away, he asked the Eighteen Arhats not to enter Nirvana, but to live in the world forever and promote Buddhism. In order to commemorate the Eighteen Arhats, monks in Buddhist temples developed this Arhat dish using eighteen kinds of vegetarian vegetables as raw materials. In the Qing Dynasty, this dish became a palace dish, ranked among the Manchu and Han banquets, and was very popular with the Empress Dowager Cixi. "
Hearing Ye Chui's words, Lin Wei, Wu Haimei and others suddenly became happy, while Zhang Ying and Sun Li's expressions changed. They didn't expect Ye Chui to explain the origin of this Arhat dish so clearly.
Sun Li continued unnaturally: "That's indeed what the legend is, but so what if we know the origin of this dish, the recipe of this dish is a secret."
Ye Chui looked at Sun Li with a smile and continued: "There was a scholar named Xue Baochen in the Qing Dynasty who liked to eat vegetarian food. He wrote "A Brief Introduction to Vegetarian Food", in which there is a simple description of Luohan Cai - "Luohan Cai, one of vegetables, vegetables and melons" The tofu, bean curd skin, gluten, vermicelli, etc. are all fried in sesame oil, and then simmered in a pot with soup. It has a very Shanjia flavor. Taiyi temples use this method all the time. This description can roughly tell that Luohan cuisine Of course, no one can tell clearly what the eighteen vegetarian ingredients used in Luohan cuisine are. Most of the methods passed down in later generations are self-developed and lose the flavor of the ancient method. "
These words once again shocked the people in the villa. If they hadn't known that Ye Chui was going to compete with Sun Li in cooking today, they would have thought that this was what Ye Chui and Sun Li had already said.
Sun Li was a little dumbfounded and looked at Ye Chui in amazement. Luohan cuisine is the signature delicacy of the Yangsheng Pavilion. He naturally knows a lot about this dish. But hearing Ye Chui's introduction made him feel inferior. Feel…
After Ye Chui said this, he smiled and said to Sun Li: "Although the Arhat dishes in most restaurants now are just in name, they are just using the name of Arhat dishes to attract fame, but I believe that Boss Sun, the Arhat dishes in your restaurant are The food must be worthy of the name.”
Although this was a compliment, everyone could tell that Ye Chui was insinuating that Sun Li's Arhat cuisine was unorthodox.
In fact, this is indeed the case. The Luohan dish recipe in Sun Li Health Pavilion was completely developed by Sun Li himself. After several years of gradual improvement and some of his methods, he slowly became famous. Speaking of this dish Whether it was orthodox or not, he himself knew, which immediately showed a timid look on his face.
Ye Chui still had a smile on his face.
Luohan cuisine is mainly made of eighteen kinds of ingredients. The most important thing about the recipe of this dish is what these eighteen ingredients are. Because over time, Luohan cuisine of various flavors has emerged in endlessly, and the original recipe has been very difficult to find. , some restaurants simply randomly select 18 kinds of ingredients, stew them together, and call it Luo Han cuisine, but in fact it is not that simple
Luohan cuisine ranks among the "Imperial Taste" level in the Manchu-Han Banquet. Ye Chui had studied this dish in detail for the Manchu-Han Banquet, and even mastered the original recipe of this dish. That is the most delicious and authentic Luohan cuisine.
Sun Li originally wanted to make things difficult for Ye Chui, but he was beaten by Ye Chui. His face was a little embarrassed and angry, and he followed him and asked: "I didn't expect that Master Ye really knows Luo Hancai. Today, we are going to meet our opponent in the Kana Health Pavilion. However, I wonder what dishes you are going to cook today, Master Ye, to compete with our health pavilion?"
"Haha, the dishes I cook are not as famous as yours, Boss Sun, and they are very simple."
Ye Chui took the bag of ingredients from Wu Haimei's hand and took out a big cabbage from it: "I'm going to make boiled cabbage." (~^~)
