Chapter 554 Head Chef: How is it proper to finish eating by the side of the pot?
Chapter 554 Head Chef: How is it appropriate to finish eating right next to the pot?
The chef took the bowl and took a sip. Everyone looked at the chef without blinking.
"Go straight to the Tianling Gai! This fresh air goes straight to the Tianling Gai!" The head chef stamped his feet, "I finally know what it means to lose my eyebrows!"
Director Jin stretched out his hand anxiously, "Give it to me quickly! Give it to me quickly!"
Master Guo laughed and scooped out a few more bowls of soup. He Huan served it to Director Jin and General Manager. The other chefs also served the soup themselves.
Xiao Bailong himself had eaten a lot of mushrooms, so he was not as anxious as they were. Everyone had enough before serving a bowl.
Director Jin had tears in his eyes, "It's really delicious! Woohoo...my first thirty years were really wasted!"
"Hahaha……"
"It's so exciting!"
The general manager said: "This is really what Xiao Bailong said is fresh to the sky!"
He Huan said: "Because the glutamic acid contained in wild mushrooms is five to six times that of artificially cultivated mushrooms, you will no longer be interested in mushrooms after eating wild mushrooms. This is why Yunzhou people call them mushrooms instead of mushrooms. Yunzhou people
I think mushrooms are ordinary artificially cultivated mushrooms, and only wild ones deserve to be called mushrooms!”
"Hahaha……"
"Although Yunzhou is a kingdom of wild fungi, it is fresher than any big fish or meat, so the price is more expensive than meat, with good ones ranging from hundreds to thousands per kilogram.
Don't think that the fungi are very light. This is spring, so they are not big in size. In summer, some wild fungi can grow to the size of a washbasin, and one meal is enough.
The key is that good mushrooms are not available yet. Because those who pick up the mushrooms take them home and eat them themselves. After all, even if they weigh a thousand pounds, they will be eaten by themselves. It would be a pity to sell them to others!"
"Hahaha……"
Master Guo smiled and said: "So we have to pick it up ourselves. Because there are many good things. If you don't go to the mountain to pick them up yourself, it won't be your turn."
Everyone laughed and continued to drink the soup, "It's really delicious! It's completely different from other vegetable soups, broths, and seafood soups!"
“It cannot be replaced with any vegetables or meat! It tastes amazing!”
He Huan reminded them: "Eat the fungi and you will know what is strange."
Many people only drank the soup without eating the ingredients. After hearing what he said, everyone picked up their chopsticks and picked up the mushrooms to eat.
Each type of fungus has a different taste, some are soft, some are crisp and tender, some are sweet, and each has a different fragrance.
Then pick up a large chopstick and put it into your mouth together to chew. Various flavors are surging in your mouth, like elves dancing on the tip of your tongue. You are reluctant to swallow them, but you can't wait to swallow them to make your stomach feel comfortable.
"What do you mean by swallowing the tongue together? I finally understand what you said!" After swallowing a mouthful of bacteria, Director Jin grabbed Xiao Bailong's arm and said, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu What did I eat before?"
"Hahaha……"
Everyone was tasting the mushroom soup, and Master Guo was smiling again as he prepared fried rice and cut the mushrooms first.
Everyone gathered around and looked at the yellow, bumpy, beautiful and ugly fungus, asking, "What kind of fungus is this?"
"Yellow manhead."
“Good image!”
Seeing that when Master Guo cut it open, the snow-white flesh in the fungus quickly turned purple, Director Jin was surprised: "It was originally white, why did it turn purple when it was cut?"
"Because it's injured." Master Guo said as he cut it.
"Ah!" Director Jin took a step back and couldn't bear to eat.
"So I cut it when I was ready to make it."
"ah!"
"I also changed the knife. This knife will be disinfected with boiling water later."
"ah!"
He Huan said: "This is what people often see when they see villains. The most common one is called blue hands, which means the hands turn blue when touched. This is called blue hands. If they are all blue, they are injured. There are also changes.
It’s red and bleeding.”
"Ahhh!"
Master Guo smiled and said: "So this fungus! Don't let it get hurt. Cut it and eat it now. Knives, cutting boards, pots, whatever your hands have touched, you have to take good care of it.
Mushrooms cannot be mixed when cooking. Firstly, if you don’t understand, the flavors will conflict, which is a pity for the bacteria. Secondly, some bacteria are easily poisoned if mixed together.”
Everyone nodded, professional!
"Bacteria cannot eat a second meal. Some are not poisonous in the first meal but become poisonous in the second meal."
"What's the principle?" Director Jin asked curiously.
"It didn't respond to the first meal, but it wanted revenge after the second meal," He Huan said.
"Hahaha……"
Master Guo said: "We have a little chef. He came back from outside and thought the mushroom soup was ready. He took a bite and went to chop vegetables. After a while, he waved his knife and shouted: Hey! Stop cooking! Kitchen
There is a dragon inside! Catch the dragon quickly!"
"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed so hard that they squatted on the ground.
"This dragon must be the little white dragon!" said Director Jin.
Everyone laughed again, and the waiters came to the door to see, thinking that the chefs were crazy for eating mushrooms!
Master Guo said seriously: "This is no joke, the time control of bacteria is very strict. For example, in our Quanjunyan restaurant, if the 100 bacteria hot pot is cooked, there will be a waiter watching each table, because some guests can't wait, so he will go
If you eat it, there will be dragons all over the place. So you have to keep an eye on them. We will not give out chopsticks until it is cooked."
Everyone was amazed and felt that Yunzhou was so magical!
"The 100-bacteria hot pot is also called the poison testing conference." He Huan said.
Everyone is inexplicably excited about adventure, and it’s strange to feel adventurous over a meal!
"There are only a dozen kinds of soups in this pot now. If there are hundreds of kinds, what will it taste like when cooked? Just thinking about it makes my mouth water."
"What does it taste like?" He Huan said, "Generally no one drinks hot pot soup, but no one has any leftover hot pot soup."
Everyone is so excited. Director Jin said: "I must go to Yunzhou this summer!"
Master Guo said: "Go! Go! Only when you go can you see how rich the bacteria are in Yunzhou! They say that colorful bacteria are poisonous. In fact, many brightly colored bacteria are not poisonous, and ordinary-looking bacteria are actually poisonous.
, don’t be fooled by appearances.”
He Huandao: "Every year from June to October, various departments in Yunzhou will send text messages to citizens to remind them which mushrooms should not be eaten. This is the unique care of the Yunzhou government."
"Hahaha……"
"But it can't be stopped. In fact, there are very few poisonous and delicious ones on the market. If you sell them to others, you will be responsible, but if you eat them yourself, you will die without regrets." Master Guo said.
Everyone looked at them, so scary! People from Yunzhou!
"Basically people in Yunzhou don't eat the matsutake, truffles, morels, and bamboo fungus that are very expensive outside. They just sell them."
"Are you reluctant to eat?"
"No, why are you eating it because you think there is something more delicious?"
"Hahaha……"
I was so despised! The chef who made chicken soup with matsutake mushrooms and fresh vegetables was very helpless.
Master Guo said: "Let's talk about matsutake. Although it is called the king of mushrooms, matsutake is fresher and richer than it. There is no need to add chicken, just boil it with water alone. It is just a pot of chicken soup, and it is fresher than chicken soup, and it is more delicious."
Not as greasy as chicken soup.”
He Huan said: "The charm of mushrooms is that they are fresher and more fragrant than meat. Many bacteria have the aroma of chicken, beef, and seafood, but they do not have the greasy taste of meat or the fishy smell of seafood."
Everyone nodded and felt it after drinking the soup and mushrooms just now. It was really delicious and not greasy, and left an endless aftertaste.
"The bamboo fungus just looks good. It's also very common in Yunzhou. Another point is safety. Because it is sold to other places, safety is the most important. Foreigners like it, so the price keeps rising. Local people in Yunzhou like to try it.
A little bit poisonous."
"Hahaha……"
"Those ugly ones, such as dried mushrooms, are the favorites of Yunzhou people. They have the taste and aroma of dried beef. Wang Zengqi said they look like cow dung, but they have a very strange aroma."
Director Jin said: "Yes, Wang Zengqi said that he lived in Chuncheng for seven years and has been away for more than 40 years, but he still can't forget the fungi of Chuncheng."
Master Guo said: "The tiger palm mushrooms from Chuxiong are also the most delicious, but they are rare, so they are unique. Basically, everyone who picks them eats them himself. They are common common mushrooms on the market. Real treasures
, you have to pick it yourself.”
"Yunzhou people are very lazy, and their pace of life is very slow. They can only pick up fungi and run very fast, and they can go up the mountain at three or four o'clock." He Huan said.
"Hahaha……"
Master Guo nodded, "Because the speed of growth of fungi is like watching a movie. There is a big difference between those that bloom and those that do not.
If you go earlier, you can pick up better and fresher mushrooms than others. From the moment it leaves the ground, its freshness is lost, so you must hurry up when eating mushrooms."
He Huan said: "One more thing is the joy of collecting! In the past, the people in Yunzhou had nothing to eat and had to live by collecting. Many ethnic minorities in Yunzhou have flower and bird calendars, which include the collecting month, which means that in July and August, there is no harvest.
, with June being the Hunger Month, it means that we are hungry and have nothing to eat, so we have to collect things to eat.
Therefore, collecting is a tradition in Yunzhou. This is how our ancestors survived. The rainy season in Yunzhou feeds countless people.
It's a lot warmer now. There's no shortage of food now, but the whole family, or asking friends to go up the mountain to collect mushrooms together, is like playing games to collect treasures. It gives a great sense of accomplishment, and family and friends remind each other and help each other.
For example, for green head fungus, experienced people will know that if you find one, there must be another one not far away, because it also has a girlfriend or boyfriend, and they always appear in pairs. As a good person,
Be sure to put them into your mouth together, don’t let them be separated by yin and yang.”
Master Guo smiled and nodded.
"Hahaha……"
"So cruel! But it looks delicious!"
"After harvesting a big basket, the family comes back to sort, wash, cook, and put it in their mouths. It is a joy that runs from beginning to end. This is why Yunzhou people are full of affection for bacteria."
"Wow!" Everyone nodded, very touched. It is difficult to experience the joy of collecting in the city!
Director Jin said: "I must experience it once! In June, I will take my husband and son, and Xiao Bailong, you will take us to pick up bacteria!"
He Huan smiled and said: "Okay! I'll bring my girlfriend with me too!"
The chefs looked at them with envy and wanted to skip work!
Listening to Xiao Bailong and Master Guo introducing their mushrooms, and watching Master Guo making mushroom fried rice.
This fried rice is really different. Normally fried rice only takes a few minutes, but Master Guo only fried the mushrooms for twenty minutes, making sure that every piece is fried and the spatula does not stick to the side of the pot, and the aroma becomes more intense.
It permeates the kitchen and takes you to heaven when you smell it.
Master Guo finally poured the rice in, and the mushrooms and rice collided and embraced. There was obviously no meat, but there was an aroma of beef. This was porcini fried rice.
Another small bowl for each person, the mediocre rice blended with the unique aroma of the mushrooms shocked the taste buds.
"Wow!" Director Jin burst into tears, "What kind of magical texture is this! All the fried rice I had before was in vain!"
Everyone nodded and devoted themselves to the mushroom fried rice. They were like a group of gluttons. They all gathered around the pot, eating and drinking soup, and various flavors collided in the mouth and chest. No one said anything anymore.
All the fungi in the soup have been drained out, and not a single trace is left. The soup has also bottomed out.
Looking at the bottomless soup pot and wok, the chef thought this scene was a bit strange!
"Shouldn't it be served to the table? Why are you finishing it right next to the pot?"
"Hahaha..." A kitchen laughed, "It's really delicious! I can't hold it back!"
The head chef had a smile on his face and said, "Master Guo hasn't eaten yet. You go outside to rest first and stay in the hotel. We'll cook for you."
Then he looked at Xiao Bailong and Director Jin, "Xiao Bailong and Director Jin are not full either. Let's cook two more dishes. You and Master Guo go outside to rest."
The general manager said: "Yes, yes, I have made arrangements here. Master Guo will stay in our hotel. Take your luggage to the room first."
Master Guo regained his embarrassment and said, "It's okay. I'll learn from the teachers and get started."
The chefs laughed, this guy is so cute! Without fungus, he instantly became shy! With fungus, he was like a calm swordsman!
The head chef nodded, "Okay, little Bailong, you go out."
"Are you afraid that I might steal your lesson by calling me out again and again?" He Huan said.
Everyone laughed.
The head chef smiled and said: "I'm not afraid that you will steal my lesson, I'm afraid that after a while, I will stand by the pot and finish eating. How unbecoming would that be!"
"Hahaha……"
Director Jin said: "As a person who understands etiquette, I will not stand by the pot and eat anything other than mushrooms."
The head chef looked at her and said, "Director Jin, are you polite?"
"Hahaha……"
Master Guo rubbed his hands in embarrassment with a smile on his face.
The general manager smiled and said: "Okay, let the chefs cook, and I will ask someone to take Master Guo's luggage to the room. Xiao Bailong, Director Jin, come out with me."
The two of them smiled and went out with the general manager. Director Jin was delighted and reminisced, "It's really delicious! Xiao Bailong, you are so lucky!"
He Huan said: "Yunzhou is indeed rich in mushrooms and there are many ways to eat them, but Master Guo still makes them first-rate and delicious! He has extracted the soul of the mushrooms! He is indeed the master of mushrooms!"
"Then can we not call him the master of mushrooms, but the master of villain refining?"
"Hahaha..." He Huan said, "Sister Jin, you are too scary!"
A female tour guide in her thirties was as happy as an elf. Perhaps it was the feeling of seeing all the feasting and embracing the mountains and wilderness! It was so happy!
There were many chefs in the kitchen, and the dishes were filled in no time. We ate together with the chefs and the general manager. There was no leadership, but it was casual. The head chef let us serve the wine.
The general manager raised his glass and said, "This is both a working meal and a welcome banquet! Welcome Master Guo to join us! Thank you also to Xiao Bailong for his suggestion!"
"I heard you can't drink alcohol after eating mushrooms?" Director Jin hesitated.
He Huan explained: "Eat mushrooms without drinking alcohol, and drink alcohol without eating mushrooms. The first reason is that alcohol affects the taste of the mushrooms, and the second reason is that when you see a little person, you can't tell whether it is alcohol poisoning or fungus poisoning. In order to facilitate the symptomatic treatment by doctors,
So eat fungi and don’t drink alcohol.”
The people at the table laughed wildly. There were too few mushrooms, so they ate them all in the kitchen. The waiter didn't eat them. I was so envious of them.
"But Master Guo and I can guarantee that the bacteria are not poisonous, so you can drink without worry. If you feel dizzy, want to vomit, or want to catch a dragon for a while, you must be too drunk. You can't blame our bacteria!"
"Hahaha... I don't believe it." Director Jin grabbed him.
"Just drink a little. You won't get drunk. If you faint, it will definitely be fungus!" said the general manager.
