They had agreed on the phone yesterday that Chu Xiao and his team would come over for breakfast before the exchange started.
Yuan Zhou actually didn't know why they had to have breakfast. It was similar to the meeting of nine people at that time. Anyway, when he received the second call, Chu Xiao specifically mentioned this, which made Yuan Zhou a little confused.
However, Chu Xiao and the master chefs could be said to have come from afar. Since they wanted to come, they would treat them well. Sichuan Cuisine was a variety of common dishes. To put it simply, except for the Chengdu School of Palace Cuisine, the other main dishes were not very expensive.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou had planned to make a breakfast that he had never made before last night. Early in the morning, Yuan Zhou found the suitable flour for himself in the special flour cabinet as soon as he got up.
That's right. Yuan Zhou wanted to make noodles, braised noodles. The Kitchen God had ordered Yibin Flaming Noodles, Shancheng Small Noodles, Sichuan Dandan Noodles, and the original Clear Broth Noodle Soup. Some customers also ordered Aozao Noodles from Su Province and so on.
"Speaking of which, the top ten famous noodles in China are Qin Province Biangbiang Noodles, Jin Province Shaved Noodles, Sichuan Province Dandan Noodles, Xuzhou Province Banmian, Yanji Province Cold Noodles, Jincheng Ramen, Guangdong Province Wonton Noodles, Lu Province Szechuan Noodles, Jiangcheng Hot Dry Noodles, and Capital Zhajiang Noodles. Well, surprisingly, there are no Shancheng Small Noodles. I only know three kinds." Yuan Zhou suddenly thought.
Strictly speaking, he only knew Dandan Noodles, Banmian, and Wonton Noodles.
"The top ten famous noodles are basically ten cuisines. Now that I have the intuition, I still have a lot of room for improvement." Yuan Zhou muttered. No matter how great the master of cooked wheaten food in China was, even Ji Yi couldn't do it. Now that Yuan Zhou was already the King of Knives and King of Cattle, he could also be called the King of Noodles.
The three kings in one was talking about him, Yuan Zhou.
Braised noodles were not a common snack in Sichuan Cuisine, but the braising method used was a common cooking method in Sichuan Cuisine.
In the past, it was more popular in the central and northern regions of China and was called "lumian" in many places. The famous yam and egg writer Zhao Shuli was especially fond of this kind of noodle food. Therefore, he did some research and believed that 'lumian' should be 'yam noodles'. Of course, the 'Bi noodles' was not the 'Bi' character used for ordinary noodles with gravy. Instead, it was the 'Bi' character used by Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru when they fell in love and sold wine as a 'Bi' character.
Of course, there were countless ingredients added into the braised noodles. According to the taste of different places, different personal tastes, and different ingredients, the name would also be different. For example, braised noodles from Henan Province, braised noodles from Meng Province, braised noodles with seafood from Min Province, and braised noodles with mountain delicacies from Chengdu.
What Yuan Zhou planned to cook was the Braised Noodles of Mountain Delicacies. He would add a series of special mountain delicacies and minced pork, such as traditional green beans, shiitake mushrooms, bamboo fungus, etc. He had prepared quite a lot of ingredients. As a result, Yuan Zhou ran faster than usual and then went downstairs slightly earlier.
"Little comrade System, shouldn't we use a special pot to braise the noodles? Otherwise, we won't be able to finish cooking them." Yuan Zhou reckoned that the wok of braised noodles would only be enough for three or four people. It was too slow.
"The wok has been distributed. Host, you can check it," the system displayed.
When it came to culinary questions, the system was as honest as ever.
In just a blink of an eye, a shiny wok appeared in front of Yuan Zhou.
This wok was a little similar to the wok used to burn firewood in the countryside. It was similar in size and shape, but the inside was different. It was different from the traditional wok. The bottom of the wok was arc-shaped. From the bottom to the edge of the wok, it was a relatively flat existence. This ensured that the heat would be evenly distributed. Judging from the calculation of this wok, it could be used for one batch of customers, which was just enough to meet Yuan Zhou's needs.
"Black technology is advancing very fast." Yuan Zhou sighed and started to get busy. He planned to eat two servings of braised noodles to reward himself.
Naturally, the system ignored Yuan Zhou. After displaying the words, it quickly disappeared. This was its current state to avoid unnecessary trouble.
While Yuan Zhou was busy preparing the breakfast, Chu Xiao had also gotten up.
They had made an appointment to meet in the main hall at 7: 00 in the morning. Chu Xiao had already arrived at the main hall and waited there at 6: 30. As the initiator of the Round Table Meeting, this was his attitude.
As a top chef, he had a very precise control of time. Because many dishes required a lot of time, the chefs were all punctual.
After Chu Xiao waited for only 10 minutes, the chefs that participated in the meeting came to the main hall one after another.
The first one to appear was naturally Opello, who was brooding over the first place and intended to let Yuan Zhou know what it meant to be the first.
"Chu, I don't think it's good to make such an arrangement during the exchange meeting, right?" Opello walked quite fast even though he had a big belly.
Of course, Opello was referring to the exchange meeting that would last for three days. Every day, the exchange meeting would be held after Yuan Zhou had prepared the breakfast, lunch and dinner.
In order to accommodate Yuan Zhou's schedule and make full use of the time to eat more of Yuan Zhou's food, Chu Xiao worked very hard.
Of course, the one who worked the hardest was Chu Xiao's new secretary. She stayed for the extremely high salary, but the boss's stubbornness made people's hair stand on end.
In order to meet the boss's request, the new secretary, Zhang Le, had to find a place near The Kitchen God in a short period of time to temporarily set up a place for the exchange meeting.
The name Zhang Le was actually not a big deal, because it could be changed at any time.
"Mr. Opello, as an exchange meeting, we must understand each other. Therefore, starting from eating breakfast, we can get a better understanding of Head Chef Yuan's culinary skills. Apart from that, we can also make a preliminary judgment," Chu Xiao said confidently.
His words sounded so reasonable that even Chu Xiao himself almost believed him. It was for the exchange meeting, not to eat a few more meals.
"That's a reasonable arrangement," Opello smiled and said nothing.
He still had to give face to Chu Xiao. Besides, he was really curious about the man called Yuan Zhou, who had made the China Famous Chefs' Association independent from the Asia Famous Chefs' Association by himself.
While they were talking, the chefs all came to the main hall one after another. It was only 6: 55 pm at the moment. Regardless of whether they were curious about Yuan Zhou or just wanted to show respect to Chu Xiao, they all came here with a proper attitude. Of course, it was also related to the fact that they had all heard of Yuan Zhou's reputation more or less.
"Alright, let's go. If we go now, we should be able to make it for breakfast," Chu Xiao saw that almost all the chefs had arrived, so he took the lead and walked in front.
The hotel chosen by Chu Xiao was a hotel owned by Wu Yungui, which was very close to Taoxi Road. It would only take them 20 minutes to walk there.
Soon, Chu Xiao and his companions arrived at the Kitchen God's seat. At this time, there were already three people waiting there. One was Wang Hong, who took advantage of Wuhai's absence to snatch the best spot. The other was Fang Heng, who ran a pub and finally got rid of his father who had been following him all the time. He planned to enjoy the meal alone.
The last one was not standing in the queue but at the side. It was obvious that he was waiting for someone. It was naturally Chu Xiao's new secretary, Zhang Le.
When Chu Xiao and his companions arrived, it was not yet 7: 15. Therefore, there were only a few people here. The group of more than ten people was quite conspicuous.
