559 Red House Famous Dishes
In fact, it is not just Chu Hu who has such questions. Shi Buyu and Wugong Masada have been guessing the foundation of the alien lotus roots in the lake, but they are "disciples", so it is naturally not convenient to ask the master.
Zhou Dong smiled and said, "Grandpa Hu, this may be the magic of creation. Chudu's special soil environment is easy to produce good lotus roots. In addition, the water quality of this Ajie Valley is quite special. There are hot springs that come from the ground and local water sources in Chudu. I tried to use local white lotus roots and southern powder lotus roots to pollinate each other, but I didn't expect that such lotus root species would appear.
Actually, I have never eaten this lotus root. I just gave him a nice name, called 'Tianxiang Xueshi'."
Grandpa Hu is not an old lunatic in Chudu Mental Hospital now. It is natural that Zhou Dong cannot tell the truth. He admits that this lotus seed was exchanged from the system. Once such words are said, they may be sent to Chudu Mental Hospital again. This is not a joke.
"Oh, is that?"
Chef Hu looked at Zhou Dong with a smile, and saw at a glance that Zhou Dong was not telling the truth. In fact, in his opinion, the lotus roots in this lake are very similar to some kind of legendary tribute lotus roots. When he thought that Zhou Dong had been to Kyoto and was valued by Mr. Shang, he immediately guessed that the lotus roots had an extraordinary origin. Since Zhou Dong refused to say it explicitly, there was naturally a reason that could not be explained clearly. How could an old fox like him continue to ask?
"Boy, did you think of how to eat Xiangxue on this day?
This lotus root is extraordinary. It is not an exaggeration to call it "Tianxiang Xueshi" just because of this strange fragrance. Grandpa, I was drooling..."
Shi Buyu and Wugong Masada both nodded secretly, thinking that we had already set our sights on this lotus root for a long time. With Brother Hu here today, it seems that we can have a great time to have a good time.
Zhou Dong smiled and said, "Grandpa came by a coincidence. Today I was about to use this lotus root to restore an ancient dish, which was also to complete a project of our ancient dish research group.
If I could pass Grandpa Hu’s level, I would get it to the private hall and make it public. It would be considered that some of the agreements between my monk Zhou Group and the Yellow River Group were completed..."
As his status in China diligently grew higher and higher, he felt a little too cold. Especially after returning from Kyoto this time, his reputation in diligently reached an unprecedented peak. During this period, he had received various invitations from China diligently, some invited him to come and guide, some asked him to be a judge, and even some chefs in high-end restaurants had conflicts, which triggered disputes among the diligently factions, and actually wanted to invite him to be the "master"...
Zhou Dong is so big that he is like a fight. It is said that ancient diligently moves around the world. This modern diligently moves is so crowded. When a conflict arises, he still looks like a boss from a group of X in the Xiangjiang movies, and he comes to solve the problem for his younger brothers. But many of these invitations are his "disciple". He is a guy who has become a special chef in the hands of the main judge. Some of them have not been invited to move several times, but they have even reached Dong Qishen's relationship...
I was so tired... Zhou Dong had already developed a desire to retreat, but what a man said must be counted. It was not as good as Grandpa Hu hiding directly into a mental hospital. Before retiring, he had to complete the restoration of ancient dishes and give Jiuzhou Dingshi a satisfactory result. Now he has one more thing to do, and he has promised Grandpa Hu to shoulder the burden of determining national dishes.
Grandpa Hu doesn't feel sorry for himself, so he doesn't have to be polite? Old Shitou, both the chef, admires Grandpa Hu. Such an expert must bring close to the Gucai Research Group. Recently, he was getting hotter and hotter with Cheng Yuqi. This girl has decided to announce her withdrawal from the entertainment industry next month and be a chef's wife. In return, she has to spend more time with her. If Grandpa Hu is in charge of the research group, it will be more convenient when she wants to leave...
Now Huailiangren has temporarily returned to the Champs-Elysees restaurant in France. The private hall is Yan Yi and Zhou Aiguo, who is in the limelight, basically he doesn't have to work too much. If Grandpa Hu is in charge of this research group, Zhou Dong feels that he can escape from the cicada. What dishes are there in the three great chefs who can't study? A few ancient dishes are just a matter of time.
It was this idea that Zhou Dong was calculating in his heart, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger.
How could Chu Hu Shen know that this kid was planning to carry the pot. Looking at the alien lotus roots all over the lake, his saliva gradually flowed out. He has been suffering all these years. He is good in the mental hospital. Even the food in the cafeteria is too compatible, so he can't roll up his sleeves and cook? This "sin" is a big deal.
Zhou Dong looked at Hu Shenchu, Shi Buyu and Wugong Masada with anticipation, and smiled and said, "I plan to use this 'Tianxiang Xueshi' to make a famous dish in the Dream of the Red Chamber. This dish is also the most detailed record in the Dream of the Red Chamber. It can basically be concluded that it was an ancient dish that once existed, not something exaggerated and fictional."
"Oh? The most detailed dish recorded in Dream of Red Mansions is only the eggplant. Do you want to use this dish to entertain your grandfather? It's not bad, but you're determined."
Chu Shenqin smiled and nodded: "But did you make something wrong? This eggplant is famous. I don't know how many high-end chefs have "played" with him. Even my grandfather tried to make this dish back then, but the taste was not too right. He could eat it, but the taste was not as wonderful as described in it.
And as far as my grandfather knows, this eggplant does not require the ingredients of lotus root. What did you think?"
Shi Buyu and Wu Gumiya Masada, who were standing aside, nodded repeatedly. Who doesn’t know about eggplant? Mr. Cao recorded in the book clearly that the ingredients used in this dish were nothing more than eggplant, chicken breast, tofu and bamboo shoots, and dried fruits such as pine nuts, hazelnuts, almonds, etc.
Moreover, chicken breast, tofu, bamboo shoots, etc. are all ingredients used as "chicken and melon seeds". Although it is related to eggplant itself, it is not the same thing. Eggplant itself is not very complicated to put it bluntly, and I have never heard of using lotus root.
Dream of Red Mansions has a great influence. Not to mention in China, it is widely circulated even in island countries. Masada Wuguchi is naturally one of the top chefs who has "played" this dish. But even a great chef like him makes the eggplant according to the records in the book, the taste is just that, and I can't tell how delicious it is.
"The eggplant is the most famous dish in Dream of Red Mansions. There are many chefs who have made this dish in reality. Our ancient dish research group has actually made it several times before, and it feels that the taste is average and cannot reach the height recorded in the book..."
Zhou Dong smiled and said, "I actually saw that Tian Xiangxue was really mature. I suddenly had some new ideas and wanted to verify it, but I still need Grandpa Hu, you, to make the final judgment."
