The previous Blade Sealing Banquet was a big banquet. Even if they only tasted a little of a dish, they would still feel full.
After all, the older they got, the worse their digestion would be. Therefore, they would eat less. It was the law of the human body.
It was the law of the human body. As a beast, Wuhai would definitely eat more.
Therefore, the 70-year-old famous chefs present all planned to take a few bites to taste the taste, but …
"It looks appetizing," Head Chef Ge felt he could eat at least three mouthfuls.
"In terms of color and fragrance, I can't compare to this even after cooking for my entire life," Head Chef Yang's appetite was also greatly increased.
Smelling the fragrance and looking at the meat, one's appetite increased. The famous chefs present were all open-minded people.
While speaking, Mr. Ma had already lost control of his gluttony and picked up the meat near the deer head's eye sockets. If Mr. Ma knew how to eat, one could tell just by looking at his actions.
Mr. Ma stuffed the meat into his mouth. The deer meat was wrapped in marinade, giving it a rich taste. The sweet wine juice and wild mint enhanced the tenderness of the deer head. Most importantly, the sour taste of the deer head was completely gone.
After eating one mouthful, he picked up the second chopstick. Mr. Ma tasted it with the second chopstick. Due to the addition of the milk fungus, wild mint and milk fungus, the dish was more fragrant and didn't have the greasy taste of the marinade.
"Old Ma, pay attention to your image," Head Chef Ge also picked up the chopsticks, but his target was the deer skin.
The deer skin had also been simmered with flavor, and because the heat was just right, Imperial Chef Ge ate it in his mouth. It was soft and chewy, and it tasted a little chewy. It was as if he was eating the skin of pickled peppers, but it was tougher than the skin.
"How is it, Head Chef Ge?" While Head Chef Mo asked, he had already eaten two mouthfuls of the deer meat.
"It completely solved the sourness of the deer head. Also, due to the secret marinade, the taste is very rich," Head Chef Ge said, "Good, excellent!"
They ate happily. The group of famous chefs actually finished all the deer head.
In the end, only the bones were left on the plate, and they all felt like they hadn't had enough.
"It's definitely one of the best. Is this Secret Braised Deer Head Dish your specialty, Head Chef Yuan?" Head Chef Yang asked.
Yuan Zhou honestly replied, "Thank you for your praise, Head Chef Yang. This is my first time making braised deer head."
The answer was clear, but the scene fell into a short period of silence, as if the TV had suddenly paused.
"Hmm?"
"First time?"
"Head Chef Yuan, are you serious?!"
These three questions were asked by Head Chef Yang, Imperial Chef Ge, and Imperial Chef Mo respectively. In fact, all the famous chefs present, including Mister Ma, had asked the same question.
When Yuan Zhou first mentioned this unique braising method, he had thought that it was a secret recipe. Now that he had tasted it, he was even more convinced that it was a secret recipe.
Otherwise, Head Chef Yang wouldn't have asked if it was his specialty.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head affirmatively and explained, "Yes, the deer head tastes sour. The first thing I thought of was Guizhou Cuisine, the famous Red Water Black-Bone Chicken of Guizhou Province. The chicken meat is a little sour, while Guizhou Cuisine uses all kinds of dipping sauces to make this sour taste their specialty."
"Therefore, based on this point and combined with the characteristics of venison, I removed the star anise. It's the same in Guangdong Province. In the braising dish, I added little or no star anise. Therefore, I prepared a kind of marinade on the spot."
"Phew, I'm convinced." Head Chef Yang remained silent for a while and then said, "This braised deer head can be used as the signature dish of any restaurant. I didn't expect you to come up with this recipe on the spot. You even have a good grasp of all the different cuisines."
What Head Chef Yang said was more or less what the other head chefs wanted to say. This time, it was truly an eye-opener for them.
Mister Ma recalled a detail, "No wonder. Yuan, you put the wild peppermint in the warm water to measure the amount of wild peppermint, right?"
"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded his head. Actually, he didn't do it to measure the amount of wild peppermint, but rather to verify if there was any problem with his recipe.
After all, Yuan Zhou was a very serious person when it came to delicacies. The final result showed that the ratio of all the spices was perfect.
"Yuan, it seems I've made a mistake. Has your culinary skills improved again?" Mister Ma asked.
Previously, when he went to eat the Shandong Cuisine cooked by Yuan Zhou, he didn't feel it was obvious. But after Yuan Zhou's actions today, Mister Ma naturally noticed it with his sharp eyes.
"Yes, I've improved a little, but not much. I need to continue working hard," Yuan Zhou answered.
"Continue working hard … You'd better slow down and give other chefs a chance to see your taillights," Mister Ma said with a toothache.
"Hahaha, that's true. The path of culinary skills is endless. We should keep working hard," Royal Chef Ge agreed.
"That's right. Head Chef Yuan's culinary skills aren't any weaker than ours," the smile on Royal Chef Mo's face grew wider.
"Speaking of which, how many cuisines is Head Chef Yuan good at?" After listening for quite a while, the middle-sized head chef couldn't help but ask.
Although Mister Ma had introduced some information about Yuan Zhou previously, he indeed didn't mention which cuisines Yuan Zhou was good at. He wanted to keep a low profile.
But judging from the fact that he could cook Shandong Cuisine and Cantonese Cuisine with ease, he was definitely not good at one or two cuisines.
"Currently, I've mastered six cuisines, namely Sichuan, Shandong, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Yunnan, and Guizhou. Compared to the numerous cuisines in China, it's still too little. My learning speed is a little slow," after saying that, Yuan Zhou sighed.
Mastered six cuisines.
Still too little.
It was a little slow.
Most importantly, he even sighed?!
Who was he trying to piss off?
These words kept repeating endlessly in the minds of the chefs. Although they hadn't met for long, from the culinary skills displayed by Yuan Zhou, they could tell that he wasn't someone who bragged. At least, he wouldn't exaggerate when it came to culinary skills.
"I think I can also choose a time to hold a Blade Sealing Feast," said Royal Chef Ge with a blank look on his face.
"I'll start preparing once I get back," Royal Chef Mo nodded his head firmly with an unnatural smile on his face.
The calmest among them was Mister Ma and Wang Ying. He knew how many cuisines Yuan Zhou knew.
"Head Chef Yuan, when can you recruit registered disciples of Zhejiang Cuisine?" Wang Ying finally seized the opportunity to ask.
"I need to completely master Zhejiang Cuisine. I still need to learn more now," answered Yuan Zhou. There was one more thing he didn't say, the Qin Cuisine mission. Judging from the current situation, Zhejiang Cuisine would have to wait for a long time.
When Wang Ying heard that, she felt a little upset.
Why was that? Because in the previous conversation, Zhejiang Cuisine was also involved. Moreover, he had raised a question about Zhejiang Cuisine.
It was Yuan Zhou who had voiced his opinion. Anyway, as the vice chairman of the Zhejiang Cuisine Association, Wang Ying felt that Yuan Zhou had a very solid understanding of Zhejiang Cuisine.
But this was still considered not mastered? All the chefs present now had a clear understanding of what level Yuan Zhou had reached when he said he had mastered six cuisines.
In the Yangtze River, the waves behind push the waves in front and the waves in front die on the beach. And this was only the waves in the river. What Yuan Zhou had done was definitely a tornado. It was too ferocious.
