Though the steamed bun was big, it was easy to pick it up. Lee Yanyi didn't use much strength and the chopsticks clamped loosely on the steamed bun. The brownish-red color and the white color formed a sharp contrast, making the steamed bun look more fair and plump.
After taking a bite, he found it was surprisingly dry without any gravy inside, which made him quite surprised.
Generally speaking, the vegetable steamed bun was made by squeezing the moisture out of the vegetables and adding sesame oil, namely sesame oil, to enhance the flavor and texture.
The other way was to keep the moisture of the vegetables without sesame oil. That way, there would be gravy in the steamed bun after it was steamed. However, the gravy would be scattered and the texture would be mixed. If the craftsmanship wasn't good, it would be better to use the first way.
However, after he took a bite of the vegetable steamed bun cooked by Yuan Zhou, there wasn't any excess gravy or the unique strong fragrance of the sesame oil.
"Ka Ca Ka Ca", the vegetable leaves, vegetable stalks and the crisp and tender diced lotus root in his mouth made the steamed bun taste very special.
Only when he chewed did the gravy wrapped in the stuffing burst out. Instantly, the scalding gravy exploded in his mouth along with the strong fresh and refreshing taste.
"What a marvelous idea. Not bad, not bad." A satisfied smile appeared on Lee Yanyi's face.
The soft and tender skin of the steamed bun, the fragrance of the white tofu in the middle and the rich gravy made Lee Yanyi reluctant to put down the chopsticks and eat the steamed bun bit by bit.
In the end, Lee Yanyi straightforwardly put down the chopsticks and directly took the steamed bun with both hands and started to taste it carefully. Every bite contained a whole circle of the skin and the stuffing. Every bite seemed to have been calculated and the skin and the stuffing matched perfectly.
For a while, almost every steamed bun in the restaurant emitted a sound of "Huh". In the next moment, however, they would exclaim contentedly, "So delicious."
The gravy was wrapped in the vegetables perfectly, resulting in the perfect combination of the stuffing and the skin of the steamed bun. They influenced each other but didn't interfere with each other, combining the two tastes ingeniously.
Therefore, the customers understood that every time they ate Yuan Zhou's dishes, there would be a pleasant surprise on their palate. Even a steamed bun could be so delicious.
After eating up the steamed bun, Lee Yanyi was still a little unsatisfied. When he saw the Lotus Root Starch, he didn't want to eat it anymore. In his impression, the soaked Lotus Root Starch would turn into the state of separation of water and powder if it wasn't eaten for a long time, which was extremely unpalatable.
This was Lee Yanyi's evaluation of the Lotus Root Starch that had been stored for a long time. He had no desire to eat it at all.
Out of habit, he reached out his hand and stirred the spoon. His wrinkles were tightly knitted. However, he discovered the problem as soon as he stirred the spoon. This bowl of Lotus Root Starch was still the same as when it was first served. It was sticky, transparent, pink, fragrant, and steaming.
"Could it be that after waiting for so long, it's still fine?" Lee Yanyi looked at the bowl doubtfully.
After that, he found that this bowl of Lotus Root Starch was the same as when he first saw it. Then, Lee Yanyi naturally finished it. It was another unexpectedly delicious dish.
"This boss doesn't have a good temperament, but he cooks well." Lee Yanyi surprisingly had the courage to say that others had a bad temperament.
Feeling too full, he sat on his seat for five minutes before standing up.
Lee Yanyan had been trying dishes for a long time to shrink his stomach. As he grew older, he ate even less.
However, the satisfied Lee Yanyi touched his belly without anyone noticing, stood up and prepared to leave.
"Grandpa, didn't you say you wouldn't come yesterday?" Mu Xiaoyun said smilingly.
Of course, Mu Xiaoyun didn't like Lee Yanyi at that time. When she came yesterday, Lee Yanyi swore at the last moment. Of course, Mu Xiaoyun didn't like him, not to mention that his scolding was very unpleasant.
However, the quick-witted Mu Xiaoyun asked Lee Yanyi after he finished eating. After all, the money had been paid.
"When? An old man doesn't have a good memory." Lee Yanyi snorted and then denied flatly.
"Yesterday, grandpa said we're an unscrupulous restaurant and won't come again." Mu Xiaoyun was still a little aggrieved when she said that.
"Little girl, you misheard." Lee Yanyi denied decidedly. Seeing that Mu Xiaoyun still wanted to say something, he continued immediately, "I don't want to talk with a person who can't even afford a meal."
This was simply a critical hit. Instantly, Mu Xiaoyun became speechless and didn't know what to say.
Indeed, during this period of time, Mu Xiaoyun often drooled while smelling the delicacies. Of course, she drooled quietly. Little girls were thin-skinned and would still be shy.
"Never mind. Let me treat you to a bowl of Lotus Root Starch." Wuhai suddenly said.
"Thank you, Uncle Wu. No need. I'll come to eat soon." Mu Xiaoyun said with a red face.
"You're welcome." Seeing Mu Xiaoyun refuse, Wuhai didn't insist anymore.
Lee Yanyi didn't care about that. He walked out of the restaurant with big strides and thought shamelessly, "Not only today, but also tomorrow. Rich people can be so capricious."
Just like that, Lee Yanyi would come here whenever he was free. With the thought that he would never come again after eating all the new dishes, he began to taste each dish slowly.
"Genius culinary skills but poor EQ." In the end, Lee Yanyi gave his evaluation of Yuan Zhou.
As for EQ, Lee Yanyi was even less qualified to judge Yuan Zhou. After all, they were about the same.
The boss of Furong Restaurant last time almost fainted when he saw such evaluation. On the first day of the opening, he always felt that the number of customers was too small and he couldn't compare with other restaurants. It was unknown whether it was a psychological effect or Lee Yanyi's evaluation.
It was not until now that more than half a month had passed that the boss witnessed Lee Yanyi's power. Word of mouth was indeed an invisible and tangible force of publicity. Because of Lee Yanyi's evaluation, none of the restaurants recommended him. As a result, his business was affected to a certain extent.
"What a stubborn donkey. What a poisonous snake!" Standing on the second floor, the boss looked at the sparse customers downstairs anxiously and cursed with hatred. He didn't have any demeanor of a big boss at all.
Lee Yanyi's words didn't work on him at all.
Fortunately, it wasn't so exaggerated that his income was reduced. Otherwise, the boss would probably fight with Lee Yanyi. Manager Gou, who was calculating the business downstairs, thought of that with a headache.
During the more than half a month, Lee Yanyi didn't accept any invitation to go to other restaurants for tasting until his assistant called him.
"Professor, are you busy?" Yan Jia's voice passed from the other end of the phone.
"What's the matter?" Lee Yanyi was eating the last bite. He swallowed and savored it for a while before saying.
At least two minutes had passed during this period. However, Yan Jia just waited at the other end of the phone and didn't urge him at all.
Lee Yanyi's character was like that. If he answered the phone, it meant he would talk to you. Such a pause was either when he was tasting the delicacies or when he had something important to do. If he could answer the phone at such a time, it indicated their close relationship.
"You need to go to Caihe Restaurant for tasting at noon tomorrow. You made an appointment one month ago. I'll go to your home to pick you up at 10: 30 in the morning. What do you think?" Yan Jia brought out the matter concisely.
"Humm, got it." Lee Yanyi answered.
"I'll send the menu to you right away." While saying that, Yan Jia sent the menu.
There were eight hot dishes, six cold dishes, three soups and five snacks. The names he gave were all extraordinarily easy to understand.
Asparagus Cream Stir-Fried Beef with Millet Chili, Coffee Yogurt and Hot Watermelon Dragon Fruit. Such exotic names made Lee Yanyi fly into a rage on the spot.
"He simply doesn't know what he's doing. He only knows how to create new dishes randomly. He doesn't even know how to give better names." Lee Yanyi complained for a while and then went out.
