Chapter 2060: Cleverly avoidingTranslator: 549690339
Lee Yanyi assured Yuan Zhou with great confidence that the speed at which he spread the knowledge of ingredients and food culture would definitely catch up with the speed at which the new dishes were served in master chef Restaurant.
After saying that, Yuan Zhou added Shandong cuisine and Singapore cuisine to the menu.
“???”
He didn’t know if there were many question marks in the kid’s head, but Lee Yanyi did.
After hesitating for a long time, Lee Yanyi finally made a decision. He took out his phone and made a call,””Zhou zhangju, I’ll treat you to lunch tomorrow. How about we have lunch together at Taoxi road?”
“Another Western restaurant. I’m not going. I’m going to master chef Restaurant. I haven’t tried the new dish yet. It’s new and not famous yet. It’s not against the rules.” Zhou zhangju was straightforward.
Ever since he had been cheated by Lee Yanyi, Zhou zhangju had started to have some opinions about this old man. The main reason was that he wanted to eat something delicious, but he had set a rule for decades that he wouldn’t eat anything that was famous.
Now, he was even made a fool of by Lee Yanyi. It was imaginable that he really wanted to go back to the past and give a slap to himself who had set this rule.
In the end, Zhou zhangju found a loophole in his own rules when he went back. He specifically went to master chef Restaurant to eat dishes that no one had ordered before. If no one had ordered them, it meant that they were not famous, and if they were not famous, it meant that they could eat. There was nothing wrong with that!
After all, it was master chef Restaurant, the only restaurant in China. Special cases had special treatment.
“Make it clear. We’re going to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant to eat this time. It’s fine if you don’t go. ” Lee Yanyi was so angry that he stopped.
“Wait a minute. You just mentioned a new dish and you want to eat it. It’s not against the rules. Have you been going there often recently?” Lee Yanyi suddenly realized something.
What made him even more upset was that Lee Yanyi had a seminar recently and he couldn’t turn it down. Therefore, he hadn’t been to master chef Restaurant for nearly a month. When he heard that Zhou zhangju, who was the most unlikely candidate, had gone there more than once, he instantly felt upset.
On the other side of the phone, Zhou zhangju snorted twice and didn’t answer, which could be considered an admission.
“Are you going or not? just one sentence.” Lee Yanyi asked again with the same tone.
“Since you’re so sincere, I’ll go. After all, we’ve been friends for so many years. It’ll be embarrassing if I don’t go.” Zhou zhangju said.
Considering that it was a friend’s treat, he could order the hot dishes. He had been eyeing the Phoenix-tail shrimp, melt-in-the-mouth claws, and West Lake vinegar fish for a long time. This time, he finally had the opportunity to eat them.
“Sure, see you then.” Lee Yanyi hung up the phone when he found that the person had agreed.
After hanging up Zhou zhangju’s call, Lee Yanyi made another call. He didn’t hang up until he had made two calls.
“Four people should be enough to form a team. The two of you are younger and should be able to do more work. It’s good for the capable to work more.” After thinking for a while, Lee Yanyi felt that his arrangement was very appropriate and didn’t think too much about it.
Thinking of the last phone call just now, Lee Yanyi changed the time slightly. After sending a message to Zhou zhangju, he washed up and went to sleep. He planned to rest up and sort out the things that needed to be sorted out in the next two days.
[The time has been changed to three days later.]
In the next few days, nothing special happened in master chef Restaurant. Except for Guo penghao and Lei ti, who came to make their presence known from time to time, everything else was ordinary.
Guo Lei and Guo Li didn’t come to urge Yuan Zhou. They were just fans of Yuan Zhou’s cooking, especially Guo penghao, who was simply too happy to return home. The Secretary kept calling him and didn’t go back. It was obvious that he had made up his mind not to go back unless something major happened.
As for Lei di, he had not come to compensate him for a long time, so the two of them hit it off.
Yuan Zhou didn’t have the time to study the ancient books brought by Guo penghao these two days. Instead, he was preparing to make the rice mantou, the 100 styles of rice cuisine ordered by Jiang Nuan.
Although it sounded simple, it was much more complicated since Yuan Zhou didn’t want to use the yeast.
“Thump!”
Yuan Zhou opened the lid of the rice wine that had been brewed a few days ago. A taste that was a mixture of the wine fragrance and the rice fragrance rushed out immediately. It was different from the traditional rice wine. He used rice, so the taste was naturally a little lighter than the rice wine brewed with glutinous rice. However, the aftertaste was longer.
“Just in time. We can start preparing the rest. It’s just right to soak the rice in the afternoon.” Yuan Zhou knew that he had met his requirements after smelling the fragrance and then nodded his head in satisfaction.
The next step was to choose the rice and then soak it. As for the types of rice, there was no need to say much here. After all, one type of rice could be matched with several dishes. Yuan Zhou had already gotten used to it. Therefore, he naturally chose the rice that was most suitable for making rice mantou.
The system was very generous in this aspect. There were several types of rice that could be cooked even for the plain white rice. Thus, the number of rice cabinets had increased silently.
In the midst of Yuan Zhou’s preparation, the day of the appointment to eat the rice and mantou arrived very soon.
During this period of time, Jiang Nuan and Zhong Xiaoxiao could be considered to have let themselves loose. They didn’t care about their weight, just eating!
“I’m really looking forward to the rice mantou cooked by boss Yuan. I think it should be very delicious. ” Zhong Xiaoxiao was especially excited as if she had set the rules herself.
“I also want to see the taste of the rice mantou cooked by boss Yuan. It should be very delicious.” Jiang Nuan had long been conquered by Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship. She was also looking forward to the fact that boss Yuan also knew her grandma’s secret recipe.
Of course, Jiang Nuan knew that this was a little too much. After all, it was her grandmother’s own research.
In order to meet with the rice buns earlier, Zhong Xiaoxiao and Jiang Nuan came earlier on purpose and were even in the first line. When su Ruoyan said that lunch time had begun, they immediately walked into the store.
After they sat down, they eagerly ordered the dishes. Of course, the rice mantou was the main dish.
Yuan Zhou had already prepared the rice mantou beforehand. The rice mantou was steamed after being ground into the rice milk. Therefore, it had various shapes. Some were specially made with a mold, some were steamed with gauze, and of course, there were also two circles combined into a group. Therefore, it was very casual.
However, after some consideration, Yuan Zhou still made it into the shape of a traditional mantou, which was similar to a rectangle, and specially wrapped it with the Lotus leaves on the second floor of the pub. Therefore, the shape of the mantou made was very unified.
The sun had been shining in Rong city recently. The daytime was longer and the sky was brighter.
Su Ruoyan quickly served the dishes that Jiang Nuan and su lingyue had ordered. This time, several dishes were served at the same time, but both of their gazes were fixed on a plate of steamed buns that were as white as snow.
In fact, it wasn’t just Jiang Nuan and Nuan Qing. All the other customers in the restaurant had also diverted some of their attention to the mantou. The mantou was simply too attractive. In addition, there were also old customers who had been present when Jiang Nuan had ordered earlier, so they knew that this thing had to be pre-ordered a week in advance.
They all knew that the dishes that needed to be pre-ordered in master chef Restaurant must have their own differences.
The mantou was placed on a small, light blue Plate. It was the color of the sky, and it was as white as the clouds. There was also a little white steam rising slowly, making it look like a heavenly Palace. It was very beautiful.
The mantou weren’t very big. Each one was about three fingers wide. There were three in a row and one layer was stacked on top of the other. There were six in total. They weren’t too big or too small. They were neatly arranged and placed on the plate, tempting people to reach out and take them.
Jiang Nuan couldn’t resist the temptation. When she caught a whiff of the familiar smell of the mantou, her heart skipped a beat, and she reached out her hand. It was a good thing she remembered to use chopsticks, or she would have to act as someone who ate the mantou with her bare hands. That wasn’t elegant enough.
