"It is the custom of the Han Banquet to serve snacks to fill the stomach before the meal, and then the dishes will be officially served."

After You Qing introduced the dim sum, the rich Han banquet began to be served one after another.

"Some of these dishes are based on the ancient recipes of the top ten bowls of Han Banquet, and some are modified with the addition of current cooking techniques and techniques. They are considered to be the highest level of Han Banquet in Hanfu Restaurant. I hope Master Xue can give me some advice." You Qing

As he talked about giving me advice, he couldn't hide the joy on his face, just like Su Zifang who got perfect marks on the exam in elementary school and deliberately asked the teacher for more advice.

While we were talking, the first dish was served.

Different from the plain and simple bowl that Su Zifang expected, the first dish was particularly exquisite in appearance.

There is a phoenix standing near the edge of the disk, holding a thick tree trunk with its claws and spreading its wings to fly.

Every detail of the Phoenix's body is revealed, with three flaming tail feathers trailing behind it. Pieces of cross-sections showing red, yellow, and green discs extend from the Phoenix's body, covering the entire plate.

"Stewed rice?" Zhang Zidan was a little unsure.

After all, in her previous shop, this dish was simply put together. Occasionally, the chef would be able to make a perfect circle when he was in a mood, but most of the time, it was laid flat and then flat.

"This dish is the first dish of the traditional Han banquet, braised rice. Now it is changed to Fengqi Wutong for the sake of better appearance and sound."

"The method is very simple. Beat the eggs, make a thin batter, divide it into several bowls, add spinach juice and cabbage juice to color it, and spread it into pancakes.

"Chop the beef, pork, shrimp, and peanuts and spread it on top, roll it into a cylinder, steam it in a pan, fry it again and shape it, cut it into chopstick-thick slices, and serve it on a plate. It looks good and is delicious."

Su Zifang secretly clicked his tongue while listening to You Qing's introduction.

Apart from anything else, if this dish appeared on Shibuyu, based on its appearance, Su Zifang would dare to price it at 688 yuan!

It must be ordered in a limited quantity, with a maximum of ten copies per day.

Just as he finished thinking, he heard You Qing continue to speak: "Currently, our Hanbanquet only accepts reservations, with a maximum of one table per day and 8,888 yuan per table."

Su Zifang silently put down his previous thoughts.

It seems that I am still too young and too kind!

Picking up a piece of stewed rice, oh, no, it’s Fengqi Wutong.

When you take a bite, the crispy outer shell exudes the aroma of egg cake in your mouth, and you can also taste a little sweetness of cabbage and pumpkin. The three kinds of meat fillings inside are mixed together. It is obviously not just steamed as Youqing said.

The flavor comes out after deep frying.

Without looking at the system, Su Zifang could taste cooking wine, pepper, and Sichuan peppercorns, not to mention that the peanuts were fried with sugar and salt, and they were full of oily aroma.

"That's it!" Su Zi put down his chopsticks.

I think this dish is just an ordinary single-bread roll with an exaggerated carving.

Suddenly, a sweet and sour taste erupted in his mouth.

This very familiar taste came and dissipated very quickly, but it just rekindled the aroma of egg, oil, and meat, forming a double wave under the impact of sourness, which hit his taste buds heavily.

This feeling……

In disbelief, Su Zifang picked up a piece of Fengqi Wutong again, spread out the filling in the middle, and found that there were some black particles the size of sesame seeds hidden in the filling.

"This is?"

"Candied black plums." Zhao Xiaoman affirmed: "I often buy them as snacks, you can't go wrong."

While they were discussing, Xue Yi also asked: "Didn't you add Wu Mei?"

"Hehe, no." You Qing was honest: "My apprentice suggested it. She said that the previous method was too greasy, and customers often ordered sour plum juice after eating. Why not improve it and add plums directly to the filling to relieve the greasiness.

"

"Yes, it's a promising idea." Xue Yi never hesitated to praise the younger generation who had ideas.

"She also made this dish." You Qing added slowly, pointing at Phoenix: "And this carving is also her craft."

"It's great that you have gained a good apprentice!"

At this point, even if Xue Yi wanted to pretend to be stupid, he could still see that You Qing was deliberately showing off his disciple's strength, but he just didn't take the initiative to mention this, so he had to hold it in and see when You Qing couldn't help it anymore.

"Hey, Master Xue, you've already talked about this, don't you plan to meet your half-disciple?"

"See!"

Being choked by such a straightforward statement, Xue Yi could no longer pretend, so he had to add: "It depends on how long you can endure it!"

"Let Qiao Xin come over." You Qing called the waiter.

In less than ten minutes, a tall girl wearing a chef's uniform walked into the box, looked at You Qing and bowed slightly: "Hello, Master."

"This is what I told you, your master, Xue Yi, Master Xue."

"Hello, Master."

"This is your senior brother Su..."

"It's uncle." Xue Yi reminded in a low voice: "You can't mess with the seniority."

Qiao Xin:???

Su Zifang:......

When Qiao Xin called Xue Yi just now, he thought of this problem. He was promoted a generation out of thin air. Seeing that Qiao Xin was about the same age as himself, he called himself a master uncle, and his skills were even better than his own, so he became a master uncle.

My face is a bit unbearable.

He also wanted to say that seniority matters, just call me Boss Su.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Xin bowed and greeted directly: "Hello, Master Su, I know you."

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoman and Mu Fei both showed expressions of amazement.

Su Zifang:???

"It seems like we've never met, right?"

"During the Huaiyang Cuisine Competition, I had family issues and was unable to participate. However, I checked with food critics afterwards and they unanimously said that the dishes cooked by Master Su were the most delicious in the entire competition. The only dishes were tofu dumplings and crab roe noodles.

It’s comparable, I hope I can ask for advice when I have time.”

[Task (Admiration of Fans): Congratulations to the host for taking the first step on the road to becoming a famous chef. Please demonstrate your cooking skills in an appropriate and practical manner and gain the admiration from Qiao Xin. Task reward: Attention +2. 】

Su Zifang was already used to the system's convulsions when a task suddenly appeared.

This was already the third or fourth task since he agreed to get to know the banquet dishes. It was so full that he didn't even want to open the task bar.

However, what surprised him was that the option to increase attention had not appeared for a long time, and this time it was actually +2 generously.

Open the store panel, and the attention entry above remains unchanged.

[Attention rating: 3 (Everyone will look at it three more times when passing by.)]

I wonder what this mission will become after +2 - do you want to look at it five more times?

Su Zi closed the panel and looked at Qiao Xin with a smile.

"Then let's talk together when my nephew has time."

Even he himself didn't realize that this nephew spoke very fluently.

"Okay." Qiao Xin agreed simply.

Su Zifang introduced the others to Qiao Xin in turn, emphasizing that Zhang Zidan was the chef who made the tofu dumplings, and received another compliment from Qiao Xin.

"Wow, Sister Zhang, you are so awesome. I always thought that those who can make tofu dumplings must be older chefs. I didn't expect that you are about the same age as me, so beautiful, and so good at craftsmanship!"

Zhang Zidan was so praised that he didn't know what to say. He smiled shyly and said, "No way, your carving is also very good. I think it's awesome just looking at it."

As a result, the subsequent topic instantly turned into an exchange between knife and engraving craftsmen, and Zhao Xiaoman seamlessly joined the conversation.

The three of them chatted very happily.

Su Zifang and Mu Fei looked at each other.
Chapter completed!
