Whether it was the roast lamb recipe or the roast pig recipe, there were three unique skills. The problem lay in the three unique skills. There was no reward from the system, but Yuan Zhou had learned a lot of materials. This was a dish invented in modern times. Because of the short history and the young inheritor, there were almost no copies of this dish.
However, it was impossible for the inheritor to show all of his unique skills. Although Yuan Zhou only looked at the ordinary materials, he felt that there was a better way to express the taste of this roast lamb recipe. That was the reason why he came to Master Wu to discuss it.
The creator was still alive, and Yuan Zhou could not make changes to the recipe. That was why he came to Yunzhong.
Master Wu was over a hundred years old this year, so it was impossible for him to come to Chengdu. It was unrealistic, and Yuan Zhou could not do such a thing.
Yuan Zhou had always adhered to the creed of respecting the old and caring for the young. Moreover, it was Yuan Zhou himself who wanted to discuss it with Master Wu, so he came in person.
The roast lamb recipe was similar to the roast duck in Beijing. However, compared to roast duck, it was more tender and smooth, so it was very popular.
With his excellent hearing, Yuan Zhou seemed to be able to hear the slight sound of "Si La" coming from the dishes that had just been served. It should be caused by the slight air coming in after the skin was cut open, resulting in the slight sound.
What Yuan Zhou ordered was the Roast Pig recipe. The smell of grease and burnt fragrance permeated the air, giving off steam slightly. There was also the smell of wheat with a little burnt fragrance. The smell of Lotus Leaf Cake and the fragrance of the meat greeted one's nostrils, making one wonder what kind of taste it would be when the two were combined.
Yuan Zhou picked up a slightly hot lotus leaf cake. He picked up a thin slice of meat and dipped it in the sweet flour sauce. Then, he picked up some side dishes, including shredded cucumber, radish, and green onion, and put them on the lotus leaf cake. Then, he rolled it up and put it in his mouth.
The lotus leaf pancake was slightly hot to the mouth. As soon as he bit into it, the soft and tough pancake crust was bitten open. Crack! As soon as the pancake crust was bitten open, it was baptized by shredded cucumber and radish. The crispy and refreshing feeling neutralized the tough texture of the pancake crust, but the sweet and spicy taste of the green onions and the tender texture of the pancake immediately enhanced the taste of the pancake.
He had already been baptized a few times before he even got to the main dish. When he got to the meat, it was the slightly heavy sweet flour sauce. It had a salty and sweet taste, and the meat was tender and smooth. However, the skin was a little crispy, and the texture was very different.
The sweet flour sauce was bought from the market, so it was a little salty. The shredded radish should be from Weifang, which is more juicy. However, this lotus leaf cake was baked just right. It was very crispy and the texture of the meat was also very good. Whether it was fake skin or real meat, it melted in the mouth and added a lot of toughness.
In his heart, Yuan Zhou felt that it wouldn't be a problem for him to earn 0.7 Yuan for this recipe. The taste was quite good. Most of the problems were related to the ingredients used. Ordinary people naturally wouldn't be able to compete with the top-notch ingredients provided by the system, let alone this was merely a family banquet dish.
After eating this dish in the real world, Yuan Zhou was convinced that his modification of this dish was very feasible. However, he needed to discuss this with Master Wu before he could make the final decision. After all, this was Master Wu's dish.
In fact, Yuan Zhou's idea was not complicated. He just put the fake skin and the real skin together and completely implemented the second skill of the recipe, Changing the Sun from Heaven.
There were a lot of dishes in the family banquet. Even though Yuan Zhou had a big stomach, he still hadn't finished all the dishes from noon to the beginning of the dinner. However, there weren't many dishes left, just a few dishes.
In order to be able to tell the pros and cons of the family banquet, when the dishes were served, Yuan Zhou only tasted them briefly. He tasted each dish when it was at its most delicious. If it was not for the fact that he always followed the principle of finishing every dish, he would have left already.
Now, Yuan Zhou asked the waiter to pack up the leftovers and bring them back to the hotel for supper. Of course, Yuan Zhou also made an appointment with the head chef to visit Master Wu.
The name Yuan Zhou was like a pass. There was no need for him to say anything, and Master Wu had already made the arrangements.
Master Wu had heard of Yuan Zhou's name before. It was just that he was old and it was inconvenient for him to travel back and forth. Now that the opportunity was presented to him, Head Chef Wu would definitely agree to it on behalf of Master Wu.
After that, everything went smoothly. The next morning, Yuan Zhou went to Master Wu's courtyard and discussed the new recipe with Master Wu. He was unanimously praised by the original creator, which was a load off his mind.
Yuan Zhou had applied for a two-day leave this time. Therefore, after he made an appointment with Master Wu yesterday, he bought a return ticket for tonight.
After chatting with Master Wu for the whole morning and settling everything, Yuan Zhou had his own time in the afternoon. Originally, he planned to look for the special dishes in Yun Zhong, but he did not expect that his schedule would be disrupted by a phone call.
"How are you recently, Master Yuan? Didn't you ask me about the method of making spades not long ago? I found a master who made spades, but he has already retired. However, he promised to communicate with you. I wonder when Master Yuan will be free?" Master Ge's voice was full of energy, and his healthy physique could be felt even through the phone.
In the beginning, when Yuan Zhou went to Master Ge to learn black pottery, Master Ge indeed treated Yuan Zhou as a beginner. However, Yuan Zhou was talented. He had learned it on his own, and with the guidance of a master, he was naturally extraordinary. After a while, Master Ge felt that there was nothing else he could teach Yuan Zhou. Therefore, his name was changed from Yuan to Master Yuan, which was a sign of respect for Yuan Zhou.
Not to mention Master Ge, even the porcelain master, Master Ju, who had met Yuan Zhou with Master Ge at that time, also admired Yuan Zhou from the bottom of his heart. He had never seen such a talented person. The most important thing was that his main profession was a chef. This was simply incredible.
It took a lot of time for the masters to accept this fact. But although Yuan Zhou wasn't willing to change to pottery, he would still discuss problems with the two masters from time to time, which made the masters very satisfied.
If Master Ju and the others could persuade Yuan Zhou to change to another profession, or leak the fact that they wanted to persuade Yuan Zhou to change to another profession, they would probably be put in a sack by more than one group of people. First of all, Zhou Shijie and the others could not just sit back and watch. Ji Yi's desserts industry was looking for a reason, and the Wine Brewer's Association was not weak either. Not to mention the ice sculpting industry, sculpture industry, woodworking industry, and so on.
The two masters were lucky. Apart from Master Flying Finger, nobody else knew about this matter. Master Flying Finger had been secretly waiting for Yuan Zhou to change his profession or become a part-time profession for a long time. Naturally, he wouldn't tell anyone about it.
Master Ge had indeed asked Yuan Zhou about it more than half a month ago. He didn't expect to get the chance so soon.
"Thank you for your concern, Master Ge. Everything is fine. May I know where the master you mentioned is?" asked Yuan Zhou.
