“There’s one with fast hands, but there’s no one with Slow Hands. ”
Zeng Youwei replied indifferently, and deliberately slowed down the last piece and put it in his mouth, making Li Youcai so angry that he stomped his feet.
Just when the xuanming elders were talking to each other, Yuan Zhou also started to finish their work.
“He is indeed a master of Yunnan cuisine. His decades of cooking skills are all concentrated in small details.” As soon as it entered his mouth, Yuan Zhou could tell that the two people’s cooking skills were almost the same and had different focuses.
“How is it? head chef Yuan, how should our dish be … Improved?” Zeng Youwei had wanted to say that he had improved, but after thinking about it, he changed it to improvement.
“That’s right,” Li Youcai chimed in.”Head chef Yuan, please enlighten me.”
Although the two of them quarreled, they were still very serious about asking Yuan Zhou to comment on their own works.
Seeing Yuan Zhou had finished two dishes, the two of them stood in front of Yuan Zhou with their hands clasped behind their backs. Their manner of respect was probably even more serious than when they faced the principal in primary school. Their manner was a little familiar.
Speaking of which, old man Li and old man Li were also strange. When others reached their level, they would have two disciples no matter what. Whether it was a direct disciple or a nominal disciple, there would always be someone to do the chores. However, they did not. The two old men had been at odds with each other for half of their lives. In the end, they were still two old men and did not have any disciples.
All external matters were handed over to Zeng Youwei. In Li Youcai’s words, this thin old man was evil, and they would not be tricked by him.
…
“The two head chefs ‘dishes are both very good. No matter what standards are used to judge, they’re both very good.” Yuan Zhou wasn’t flattering him. The two elders of Yunnan cuisine, xuanming, had become famous because of their craftsmanship.
Yuan Zhou continued,”if you really want to find a way to improve, I did see a trace of it after eating it. Head chef Li’s control of the fire is quite good. The meat is soft and tender, but the Lily’s softness is a little worse. Head chef Zeng’s Lily is very good, and the meat is also moderately soft and hard, but there is a little bit of a perfect combination between the two.”
Even Lee Yanyi and Zhou zhangju wouldn’t be able to figure out the two problems that Yuan Zhou had just mentioned. It wasn’t that they weren’t professional enough, but that they didn’t have such a deep understanding of Yunnan cuisine. It seemed that Yuan Zhou had just mentioned two minor problems and then made it sound easy, but that was based on Yuan Zhou’s extreme understanding of diannan cuisine. One should know that Yuan Zhou knew diannan cuisine very well.
Upon hearing this, the two elders of Yunnan cuisine thought for a while and then looked like they suddenly realized something.
“Yes, yes, yes, head chef Yuan is right,” Li Youcai said.”This place can indeed be improved.”
“I also feel that the ratio of fat and lean meat used by head chef Yuan is different from the traditional one.” Zeng Youwei had observed the details.
Yuan Zhou had always held nothing back when it came to communication of culinary skills. Therefore, he told Zeng Youwei everything about the fat to lean ratio as soon as he asked.
The three of them started to express their opinions one after another. However, from the beginning to the end, Li Youcai and Zeng Youwei’s respect for Yuan Zhou had never changed. Instead, it became more and more intense as the communication went deeper.
“Ding Ling Ling …”
Time passed by minute by minute and unknowingly, it was time for Yuan Zhou to prepare the dinner.
“I’m really sorry for taking up so much of head chef Yuan’s time.”
The two of them didn’t wake up from the communication until they heard the bell. When they found it was getting late, they knew it was time for Yuan Zhou to prepare the ingredients for dinner. They had delayed for such a long time that Yuan Zhou didn’t even have time to rest. They felt really ashamed.
“No, head chef li and head chef Zeng have also taught me a lot of unique ways to deal with fungi.” Yuan Zhou said.
“We’ll take our leave then. Sorry for disturbing you, head chef Yuan. We’ll visit you again next time.” Li Youcai and Zeng Youwei had already made up their minds, so they didn’t delay and directly took their leave.
“Take care. If you have any problems, you can find me at any time.” Yuan Zhou walked the two of them to the entrance of the restaurant and watched them leave before returning to the restaurant to prepare the ingredients.
Yunnan cuisine also needed to be promoted. Yuan Zhou could be said to be committed to the development of domestic cuisines. The two elders of Yunnan cuisine, xuanming and xuanming, could be said to be very good candidates for promotion.
“It seems that I can ask for the opinions of head chef li and head chef Zeng the next time I come. The two of you are quite good at cooking, so it shouldn’t be difficult to implement the plan.” Yuan Zhou calculated in his heart.
His movements were not slow. Seeing that it was getting late, he quickly walked up the stairs and went to the second floor to take a bath. Then, he immediately came down to prepare the ingredients.
In Japan, dashi xiujie was making a phone call very happily. The reason for his happiness was easy to guess. He had borrowed the knife used by Yuan Zhou during his apprenticeship from his senior brother.
In the past two days, dashi xiujie had informed more than 20 famous chefs in Japan, including Fujiwara Jiayuan, Nozaka chef, shangqi chef, and so on.
Dashi xiujie wanted to hold a “knife reward ceremony”. The words “Yuan Zhou gifted the knife” were engraved on the handle of the knife. Dashi xiujie didn’t say who the knife was for. Therefore, he prepared to say that it was a gift from Yuan Zhou. Of course, dashi xiujie didn’t have the intention to take the swimming spirit saber for himself. He would naturally return it one month later. He wouldn’t make any fake changes to the saber either. Dashi xiujie just wanted to show off.
He could let Fujiwara Jiayuan and the others know that he, dashi xiujie, was also the favorite child of the Grandmaster.
Strictly speaking, dashi xiujie’s action did have a little benefit, which was that he would gain the reputation that Yuan Zhou liked. But in fact, dashi’s purpose was definitely not that. After all, he had been recognized as the leader of Shinwa by tengyuan Jiayuan. In the younger generation of Japan, no one could compete with him.
Then why did big stone go through so much trouble to borrow a knife, and then carefully prepare the knife reward ceremony?
It was very simple, it was to make him feel good! Master Cheng had been gifted two knives and an ice knife by Yuan Zhou. Therefore, he consoled himself and pretended that he had also been given a knife.
Some Japanese people were so ruthless that they even lied to themselves when they went crazy.
“What should I choose for the knife offering ceremony?” Dashi xiujie was writing and drawing. He had written many plans on several pieces of paper on the table. However, he hadn’t chosen which one to use after two days.
“Forget it. The time is almost up. If I don’t make a decision now, I won’t have time to prepare.”
After dashi xiujie made up his mind, he began to use the method of elimination. First of all, the most Orthodox huaishi cuisine was excluded. Although huaishi cuisine was the most suitable from the perspective of the pattern, huaishi cuisine couldn’t be prepared in person. Those who couldn’t prepare in person couldn’t see him using the spirit swimming knife. Since they couldn’t see it, then what was the meaning of life?
“Excluding the Kaishi cuisine, there’s only sashimi and sushi left.”
The word “sushi” was not a typo. To be precise, it meant that a theme was specially chosen for sushi and then made. In many Japan cooking competitions, there would be such a topic.
“If I choose the sashimi, I’ll have more time to use the saber, but won’t it be too deliberate?” Dashi xiujie weighed it in his heart. In the end, he chose the sashimi in order to not make it seem so deliberate …
