Chapter 214 This dish is too good to be eaten!

Food carvings have a long history in China and have existed since the Spring and Autumn Period.

There are related records in "Guanzi": "Carved eggs and cut them down". The carved eggs here are carved on eggs and other ingredients, which are a kind of food carving. In the "Recipe" written by Wei Juyuan of the Tang Dynasty, there is a detailed explanation of a delicious jade dew ball, called "Diaoshu, also known as Yuhuang Queen Mother Rice: Eggs are all covered with rice noodles and filled with miscellaneous flavors. In addition, in "Shanjia Qing Xiang Yuan Cup" by Lin Hong in the Song Dynasty, there is also a record that "Xie Yizhai is not addicted to alcohol... One day, after writing the zither, he ordered the left and right to cut the fragrant round into two cups, carved with flowers, and warmed the wine given by the emperor to encourage guests. The clear and fragrant mist makes people feel that the gold and jade are all scattered."

In addition, there are records about food carvings in "Jiangjing Menghualu" in "The Chinese Valentine's Day" of Meng Yuanlao of the Song Dynasty, "The melon is carved into patterns, which is called flower melons." In "Yangzhou Huafanglu" of Li Dou of the Qing Dynasty, "taking watermelons and carving characters, flowers, insects and fish, which is called watermelon lanterns."

In short, food carving is a strange flower left in China's 5,000-year-old culinary culture - of course, the weird flower here is not the joke-like part of the word on the Internet now, but the strength with praise.

Food carving is a unique skill of Chinese chefs and the pearl of oriental food art. Of course, food carving is also impossible to carve perfectly due to the limitations of food ingredients. It is necessary to grasp the charm through intention and shape. When carving, the places that should be omitted must be omitted, and the places that should be exaggerated must be exaggerated, but even so, diners must be able to see what is being carved at a glance.

Just like now.

Ye Chui carved Lin Wei's family and immediately made people recognize everyone. This is because Ye Chui grasped the charm of Lin Wei's family.

If you want to learn food carving, you often need long-term practice. It is impossible to get a master without five or six years. Ye Chui has been practicing for at least ten years in this regard. He also absorbed the essence from the fabrication of clay men who are also traditional Chinese craftsmanship. Ye Chui has reached the level of an artist in terms of food carving.

His food carvings can be both form and spirit. It is vividly reflected in this family joy. The whole dish maintains its original taste, but the artistic conception conveyed is undoubtedly very touching. Although Lao Fu sometimes seems quite unreasonable, she attaches great importance to her family. She even stays in the Lin family villa unreasonably for a simple reason for health care, and even prevents her son from working too hard. These behaviors seem unreasonable in some aspects, but it also reflects the thought that the elderly have a love for their family.

There is no doubt that this family-friendly dish really touched her bones. This dish also made her cry involuntarily. This is the powerful infectiousness of this dish.

"Xiao Ye, your cooking skills are so indescribable. This dish... is so good, better than all the dishes I have eaten in the past." Lord Lafayette took the towel handed over by Wu Haimei and wiped the corners of his moist eyes, and suddenly continued, "But there is something very bad."

"Uh? What is it?" Ye Chui was shocked.

Zhang Ying was happy. She thought that Lao Fu actually picked the dish by herself, and she looked expectant.

But as a result, Lafayette's words obviously made her happy in vain-

"These two orioles sing in the green willows and this family fun. How can you let me take off the chopsticks?" The old Buddha continued leisurely.

The food is so good that I can't bear to put the chopsticks to eat it...

This is obviously a great compliment to the dishes!

Ye Chui couldn't help laughing, so he said with a smile: "Although these two dishes are beautiful and spectacular, this beauty is just a flash. Only by eating them in your mouth can you truly appreciate the deliciousness of this dish. Grandma, just go and eat it. Besides, if you like it, I can make it for you in the future."

"Yes, Ye Chu has great knife skills. It only took less than half an hour to carve these." Lin Wei also said with a smug smile.

Hearing Lin Wei's words shocked the others again, because they suddenly realized that Ye Chui only had an hour to cook, and it took less than half an hour to carve these two dishes. These carvings were completed in such a short time. This can no longer be described as a magical craftsmanship?

Even if an ordinary chef can do this level of carving, the time it takes may not be short...

After a day or two, the ingredients will smell bad!

Lin Zhengdao found that he could not have any degree of expectation for Ye Chui at all, because these expectations would always turn into the same degree of surprise. After he reacted, he smiled and said to the old Buddha: "Mom, I think Ye Chui is right, don't hesitate. These foods are made to satisfy the desire for words. Since that's the case, you can eat them happily. This is the greatest significance to these ingredients."

"But..." Lord Lao Fu looked at the family joy with an indescribable expression, "Who should I eat first?"

Everyone: "…"

Finally, after discussion, it was decided that everyone from the Huanlin family would eat their own food.

This carving is made of radishes, and it is also a whole-breed carrot. However, due to these carvings, both the Lafites and Lin Zhengdao, who originally disliked carrots, felt that the taste was not annoying at all, and they even enjoyed it very much. It is estimated that from today on, they will no longer hate the taste of carrots...

This is also the magical effect of these dishes today, and it makes people like the ingredients that they originally dislike.

Of course, this is not the ultimate goal of Ye Chu -

"Grandma, in fact, all things in the world are mutually rebellious. Nature has its own unique food chain. Whether humans eat vegetarian food or meat, they are all part of the food chain. If that's the case, why do we have to be vegetarian food?" Ye Chui looked at Lao Fu and gnawed the carrots in his statue, and said to her solemnly, "You are old now. If you want to ensure health and longevity, you should supplement enough nutrition. I think it's okay for you to eat some meat in moderation."

Ye Chuizai persuaded Lafayette to give up eating vegetarian food!

In the past, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei had said all about the Lord Lady, but what they got was Lord Lady's scolding. It was obvious that it was not easy to make a person who was vegetarian because he believed in Buddhism to give up this habit. Hearing Ye Chui's words, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei both showed a worried expression at the same time, fearing that the good feelings Ye Chui had just accumulated on the Lord Lady would suddenly disappear.

Zhang Ying finally found a way to attack Ye Chui. She hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, isn't it too much to say that? Lao Fu chose to eat vegetarian food with all his heart. Isn't it difficult for her to eat meat? Let her give up her faith?"

"Believe in Buddhism and do good deeds, but it does not have to be done by eating vegetarian food. In my opinion, true good deeds should be more practical actions, rather than restricting one's own diet. The vegetarian food in Buddhism is just to calm the mind. For self-cultivation, we ordinary people do not need to demand that ourselves. As long as we have a good heart, how could the Buddha mind eating vegetarian meat? What is important is the word "good". Ye Chui said to the old Buddha seriously, "In my opinion, if you really have faith, you should eat meat happily, so that those meat ingredients can be used."

If Ye Chui's experience of this kindness carefully, it would be like a mess. It was as if he said that if I didn't eat meat, it would make meat have no meaning. But when he said this under such circumstances, it was undoubtedly the most touching of the Empress Dowager's mood, which made her look thoughtful. The appearance was clearly a little shaken.

Not only did she not refute Ye Chui severely, she was thinking about whether to give up on the idea of ​​continuing to eat vegetarian food!

This surprised Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei again. The magic of Ye Chui's food can actually make vegetarians break the precepts and give up their beliefs?

Zhang Ying was even more dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, Ye Chui's influence on Lord Lafayette would be so great. If this continues, wouldn't the purpose of keeping Lord Lafayette in Xizhou City be realized?

"Laofu, if you eat meat, the Buddha will blame you." Zhang Ying hurriedly whispered.

Ye Chui also smiled and said to the Lafayette: "Grandma, if you don't take good care of your body, Vivi and your uncle will feel distressed."

Is the Buddha and his family more important?

Although Lao Fu believes in Buddhism, it is obvious that the weight of her family is only heavier in her heart.

Lin Wei knew Ye Chui’s plan and immediately continued: “That’s right, grandma, you eat vegetarian food every day. If there is any physical problem, I will feel very distressed.”

Wu Haimei also expressed her hurriedly: "Yes, eating meat can only make you healthy by supplementing nutrition. I think you should listen to Ye Chui's advice."

Lin Zhengdao also said: "Mom, I think Ye Chui's words make sense."

"This... let me think about it carefully." The old Buddha's mind was obviously too shocked today. Ye Chu's table of dishes gradually progressed, but in the end, a person who had believed in Buddhism for decades was shaken.

At this time, Ye Chui took the most fatal blow: "Grandma, the Chinese diet is mainly meat. In fact, if you can eat meat, I still have countless delicious foods to make for you. The Manchu and Han chess is not a problem. That is the highest level of our Chinese diet, the food that Lao Fu of Cixi in the Qing Dynasty wants to use in daily life."

Lafa: "..."

This old lady is definitely completely moved now!

"Hey, I'm not in good spirits when I'm old, so I'll go to a sleep until noon..." She stood up in the chair and wanted to go back to the house to sleep before deciding on this issue of faith.

But Ye Chui said, "Grandma, walk a hundred steps after a meal. This is the traditional way of health preservation in China. You should exercise for a while before taking a nap. This will be the most beneficial to your body."

"Yes, yes, you're right." Lao Fu nodded hurriedly, "Vivi, you'll be walking around with grandma."

"Okay." Lin Wei nodded quickly and agreed.

Now, the old Buddha seemed to have completely forgotten Zhang Ying's existence, and she seemed to have completely forgotten the health preservation skills that Zhang Ying taught before!

Seeing Lin Wei helping the Lord Buddha leave, Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei showed a relaxed smile on their faces. If this continues, it will take not long for the Lord Buddha to be completely "controlled" by Ye Chui, and then Lin Zhengdao will be able to gain enough freedom to hurriedly take care of the current business of his company. This made Lin Zhengdao unable to help but show a hint of gratitude to Ye Chui. He originally had a not very sure attitude towards whether Ye Chui could affect Lord Buddha, but now he understood that Ye Chui had completely met his expectations.

"Uncle, please continue to eat. There are still leftover dishes in the kitchen. You can get Wu Ma to bring them up later." Ye Chui said to the two with a smile.

"Ye Chui, you sit down too. Now you are no longer an outsider. Let's eat together." Wu Haimei hurriedly greeted.

Ye Chui couldn't help but smile. Is this already the rhythm of the family...

Zhang Ying looked at the dishes that Ye Chui made, and she was full of expectations for these delicacies. In addition, she was feeling very hungry now, so she had to sit down and have dinner, but Wu Haimei could not help her get what she wanted: "Miss Zhang, you seemed very dissatisfied with Ye Chui's food just now and were picky. How could this work? You must satisfy you as a guest. Please go back to your room first. After we finish eating, I will ask Ma Wu to make some food for you."

This is a disguised act of driving people, but Wu Haimei is still very polite and makes people unable to find fault.

"..." Zhang Ying was stunned for a moment, and indeed felt that it was inappropriate for her to stay here, so she glared at Ye Chu coldly, and then went back to her room with some disappointment.

Lin Wei helped Lao Fu for a walk and came back soon. Lin Zhengdao and Wu Haimei had almost the same lunch. They seemed to be deliberately not wanting to make the lights break, so they left the dining table with laughter and gave the place to Ye Chui and Lin Wei.

At this time, Lin Wei was full of happiness on her face. Suddenly she thought of something, she laughed, and ran to the kitchen to take out the statue of Ye Chu carved by Ye Chu. This was a carrot. Although it was beautiful, it could not be stored for long. She shook in front of Ye Chu and said to Ye Chu: "This must be eaten quickly."

"Yes..." Ye Chui said with a smile.

"Crack."

Lin Wei bit Ye Chuan's head in one bite, and started eating the very crispy ones.

Ye Chu: "…"

Lin Wei was saying, "Do I want to eat you in one bite?"

In the guest room on the second floor.

Zhang Ying, who was hungry, had an angry expression on her face. After walking around the room for a few times, she finally made up a certain decision, then took out her cell phone from her pocket and dialed a certain number.

A moment later, the other side was connected: "Zhang Ying, what's wrong?"

"Mr. Zhang, I may be going to fail..." Zhang Ying explained hurriedly. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
