313. Boiled cabbage(1/2)
Li Xiao quickly stretched out his hand to help the other person up and said politely:
"Chef Zhang is too polite. In fact, I just want to give you feedback."
"After all, food safety is no small matter. I'm also worried that if you don't notice it, and there is a food problem later, it will be terrible."
"Now that you've discovered the problem, that's the best thing."
Zhang Huiyuan looked at Li Xiao's outstretched hand, and the tension and worry in his heart instantly relaxed.
At this time, he finally confirmed that the anchor in front of him with more than 4 million fans was not sent by a competitor to hack him.
Otherwise, how could this matter be revealed so easily?
He would definitely hold on to him, but the other party did not hold on to him, but directly recognized his attitude of admitting his mistake.
Zhang Huiyuan often breathed a sigh of relief, as things did not develop in the worst direction.
He looked at the food delivery manager beside the stage who kept making gestures towards him, and he quickly said to Li Xiao:
"In this case, I will go back to the kitchen to supervise their work, and by the way, I will have someone check as soon as possible to see if there are any similar safety lapses in the kitchen."
As he spoke, he took out a white business card from his white chef uniform and handed it to Li Xiao with both hands.
"This is my business card. I admire my guests' keen taste buds very much. There will be a food review contest in the capital recently."
"I am a sincere invitation from one of the organizers. You can go over and participate in the judging work."
"The competition is on the weekend of this week. There will be dozens of three-star or above chefs competing on the same stage, and there will be many silver spoon and gold spoon gourmets participating."
Li Xiao took the other party's business card with both hands, thought about it, nodded and said:
"If it were the weekend this week, I would have time to go there. If there were no accidents, I would probably go."
His mind was racing, and without much thought, he quickly decided that if nothing happened, it would be over.
After all, dozens of three-star or above chefs gathered together. He had never seen such a grand occasion.
I was also very happy to hear that Li Xiao agreed to Zhang Huiyuan. After all, although competitions like this have been held many times, most of them are for the industry's own entertainment.
Even if you get a good ranking, it's just bragging within the industry, and no one outside knows about it.
His invitation this time is to promote this competition and let more people know about it.
This will make the impact of the event greater and allow more star chefs and food critics to participate.
It is no longer just a small competition within the metropolitan area, but has the opportunity to become a national or even global competition.
The two communicated for a while, then returned the members to the kitchen and sat down with Li Xiaoze again, waiting for the start of the main meal.
In the live broadcast room.
"Okay, okay, anchors are becoming more and more popular now. A five-star chef actually invited the anchor to be a judge. It's amazing."
"This is so cool! Doesn't this mean that you can eat the dishes prepared by dozens of three-star chefs for free?"
"Anchor is becoming bigger and stronger! Before, you could only go to ordinary restaurants to check out restaurants, but now you can be invited to be a judge?"
"Actually, the anchors are already in the capital, so why not take the opportunity to get a certificate as a silver spoon food critic? The state has a subsidy of more than 30,000 yuan a year."
"Isn't it? A subsidy of 30,000 yuan for doing nothing for a year? I also want to take the exam."
"The guy upstairs is overthinking it. Do you think the Silver Spoon Gourmet exam is so easy?"
"If a 1-star senior chef is equal to a copper spoon, then a silver spoon is at least 4 stars, and a gold spoon is at least 6 stars. Do you think you can get a 4-star chef?"
"this......"
Li Xiao also saw the suggestion from the audience. With his current sensitivity of taste, he thought that he could still get a silver spoon gourmet himself.
Indeed, I am already in the capital, and I can indeed pick up this silver spoon.
Although the annual subsidy of 30,000 yuan is not much, it is better to have it than not. After all, 30,000 yuan is enough to eat here several times.
Shaking his head, he temporarily put all these things behind him, and returned his attention to the dance on the stage.
At this time, a chime clock was pushed onto the T stage, and the background music around the hall slowly disappeared.
One by one, the little brothers and sisters dressed in light blue quickly jumped onto the T stage from both sides of the T stage and walked towards the bell nearest to them.
The host in the center of the stage picked up the microphone and introduced:
"The ancient large-scale percussion instruments and chimes emerged in the Zhou Dynasty and flourished in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period until the Qin Dynasty."
"It is made of bronze, consists of oblate bells of different sizes arranged in order of pitch, and hung on a huge bell frame."
"The player uses a T-shaped wooden hammer and a long stick to hit the copper bells separately, which can produce different musical tones. Because each bell has a different tone, if you hit it according to the music score, you can play beautiful music."
"Please listen to the song below, [Eternal Song]."
Warm applause erupted in the hall, and with the exaggeration of the previous dances, the atmosphere became lively.
Although the previous dances were all costume dances, they were not formal dances.
After all, it is a dance number carefully choreographed by a university associate professor, so it cannot be too bad.
Even Li Xiao, who is tone-deaf and has never watched anyone dance, was fascinated by it.
Ahem, of course it's not because the young lady has a good figure, nor is it because the clothing design is very beautiful and looming, which is very tempting.
But those dances are quite outstanding in terms of smoothness, explosive power, and visual sense.
Similarly, the following chime tune [Eternal Song] is also very good.
Although Li Xiao could tell that in order to make it easier for the performers to get started, the arranger only used three of the nine groups of chimes, and in these three groups, only five of the tones were used.
But the arranger only used 15 chimes to create a hesitant and majestic song "Eternal Song", which shows how strong the opponent is.
It was absolutely impossible for Li Xiao to hear these tricks before, but after obtaining the skills rewarded by the system.
Not only can he easily hear the subtleties and shortcomings in this piece of music, it would not take him too much time to compose an equally wonderful piece of music.
[Eternal Song] did not last very long. After three minutes, the bells began to slowly stop. Each performer gently pressed their hands on the chimes to make the vibration of the chimes slowly stop.
The chimes were pushed back one by one, and the host continued to introduce:
"Okay, distinguished guests, today's opening performance is temporarily over, but don't leave. The following wonderful performances will be presented to all distinguished guests along with the dishes."
"The first dish is a traditional palace banquet dish, boiled cabbage."
"Boiled cabbage is a famous Sichuan dish. It was originally created by Huang Jinglin, a famous Sichuan chef, when he was working in the imperial dining room of the Qing Palace. Later, it was promoted by Sichuan cuisine master Luo Guorong and became a delicacy at state banquets."
"This dish sounds simple and unpretentious, but it shows the excellent soup-making skills."
"As the saying goes, whether a chef can make soup depends on whether he can make a dish of boiled cabbage."
"Although this dish is called boiled cabbage, it actually uses high-quality clear soup."
"Put the old hen, old duck, ham, trotters, ribs, scallops and other ingredients into the boiling pot respectively, add cooking wine, onion, garlic and other condiments and cook for at least 4 hours, then mince the chicken breast until minced, and fill it with fresh soup.
Stir it into a slurry and pour it into a pot to absorb impurities."
"After repeated adsorption two or three times, the originally slightly turbid chicken soup in the pot is now as clear and clear as boiling water, with a rich and mellow aroma, not greasy or greasy, and refreshing."
"Now please enjoy the boiled cabbage carefully prepared by our chef for everyone, and at the same time enjoy the dance [Hibiscus Rain]."
After a burst of applause, a young lady in a red skirt came to the diners holding trays one by one.
There is a domed stainless steel cover on the top of the tray. The young lady's delicate hands opened the stainless steel cover.
A budding lotus flower carved from cabbage appeared in Li Xiao's sight.
The young lady put away the stainless steel cover, and a small golden teapot appeared in her right hand like magic.
Just listen to her slightly parting her lips and saying in a nice voice:
"The lotus flower emerges from the silt but remains unstained, and washes away the pure ripples without being evil. May your distinguished guests be like this lotus flower and never be polluted by the turbidity of the world."
As he spoke, clear chicken soup that was the same as boiling water flowed out of the small golden teapot.
If Li Xiao hadn't had a keen sense of smell to smell the aroma of chicken soup in the middle, he would have thought it was real boiling water.
As the clear chicken soup was poured in, the white lotus that was originally in bud slowly began to bloom.
The scattered small petals next to it slowly floated up as the water level rose.
Soon, the whole white lotus flower bloomed, and the chicken soup exuded a slight heat, making the whole boiled cabbage look like a fairyland.
The young lady once again performed magic and put away the golden teapot in her hand. She bowed slightly to Li Xiao and introduced:
"Under the lotus is clear chicken soup. Guests can choose to drink a bowl of chicken soup first and taste the cabbage in the chicken soup."
After saying that, the young lady turned and left.
As someone who loves soup like his life, Li Xiao naturally chooses to drink soup first and then eat vegetables.
After all, the essence of this boiled cabbage dish is all in the crystal clear soup.
Moreover, just by smelling the aroma of the chicken soup, he knew that the soup must be delicious.
The spoon gently opened the colorful petals floating on it, and a spoonful of clear soup, which was just like boiling water, entered your mouth.
Fresh, extremely fresh.
Li Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank, and he felt that all the pores in his body suddenly opened.
