Chapter 2336: The forming unspoken rules

Translator: 549690339 

Liu Jian felt that he was only a dozen years older than Zeng Youwei.

An old steed hiding behind a steed with ambitions of a thousand miles was nothing. Liu Jian felt that he could still fight for the chance to be Yuan Zhou’s disciple.

In fact, the existence of Yuan Zhou and master chef Restaurant proved the existence of the Law of Attraction.

Back to the main topic, Liu Jian’s thoughts had changed very directly after he came out of his closed-door cultivation. At first, he felt that it was unfair for his disciple. His disciple was much younger than Zeng Youwei and the others. However, after eating two dishes, he felt that it was unfair for himself.

They thought that it was only because he wasn’t around that they could do anything to him!

“Do you think head chef Yuan will still accept in-name disciples?” Liu Xi leaned closer and asked in a low voice.

“I don’t know about this, but we can first get to know the in-name disciples. Anyway, we all know each other?” Liu Jian said after thinking for a while.

It wasn’t realistic to say whether he would accept them or not, but just based on the level of these two dishes, he could learn.

“You’re right. After lunch, let’s ask head chef Yuan if he has time to talk about the ancient dish. Then, we can carry out your idea.” Liu Xi said.

The two of them didn’t speak after that because a new dish was served.

This dish was a cold dish. It was one big and two thin. The meat slices were big and as thin as paper, which were really big slices. Moreover, it was a dish that was skilled in fire control and knife skills. It was said that it wouldn’t fall off even if it was thrown onto the wall, which was how it got its name.

“Hiss, this is too thin, won’t it break?” Liu Jian’s eyes almost popped out.

This dish was his specialty. He had been cooking it for so many years that he could cook it with his eyes closed. However, in front of this delicate and beautiful thin slice, he really could only cook.

It could be said that in the entire Dian province, there was no large piece thinner than him. It was really as thin as a cicada’s wings. When it was picked up, it seemed to be trembling slightly like the wings of a butterfly. But now, Liu Jian clearly realized that what he had thought before was definitely an illusion.

“Head chef Yuan’s cooking is definitely impossible.” Liu Xi immediately picked up his chopsticks.

When he picked up the pig head with his chopsticks, although it looked like he would have missed it if the pig head’s meat wasn’t so dark in color that the meat could be seen, it didn’t tremble like what Liu Jian had done. It was as if it would break if he wasn’t careful.

However, when he spoke and exhaled, the meat slices began to tremble rhythmically on the chopsticks. It didn’t look like they were broken, but more like they were dancing.

There was a white porcelain bowl at the side with a prepared dipping sauce. Every large slice would be paired with this kind of dipping sauce. Of course, everyone’s taste was different, so the dipping sauce prepared by every chef would be very different.

The green scallions on the top seemed to add a touch of spring to the sauce. Liu Xi picked up a thin slice and dipped it slightly before putting it into his mouth. He couldn’t help but smoothen his brows. Sour, numbing, spicy, fragrant, and salty-the five flavors were a mix in his mouth. The originally crisp and tender meat slices showed signs of melting when he bit into it, and then his teeth fully revealed its final stubbornness. It was chewy and extremely crisp and delicious.

Liu Xi had only wanted to prove himself, but he was instantly dazzled by the taste. It was truly delicious. Although the flavors were a mess, each of them was just right. It made people feel that it was a mess but not messy, a mess but not messy. It was refreshing, spicy, crisp, and tough. It was indeed an excellent wine to go with.

Liu Jian’s heart ached when he saw Liu Xi eat two pieces in a row. He immediately put aside the matter of thickness and directly picked up the chopsticks to eat.

Because it was thin enough, even if it was only dipped in a little sauce, it was very flavorful. It was crispy and tender, sour, spicy, and appetizing. It was very delicious.

“That’s too little, it’s not enough at all. ” Liu Jian was a little proud when he got the last piece, but he was very disdainful.

“It’s indeed a little too little. ” Liu Xi agreed.

Of course, he ignored the fact that he had made less food than these, because the dishes he had made had never been snatched by others before. There was definitely enough to eat, and enough naturally meant that there was more. There was nothing wrong with that.

The dishes were served in a staggered manner. The next dish was naturally Liu Xi ‘s-steamed sweet and sour crispy fish. The main ingredients of this dish were the steamed sweet and sour chili and the ingredients used.

Liu Xi could be said to be the best at making pickled chilies in Guizhou Province. However, he naturally couldn’t say that in front of Yuan Zhou. Otherwise, it would be a piece of cake for him to turn into dregs in a second.

At present, an unspoken rule was taking shape in the circle of chefs. When people said that xxx dishes were the best and that some dishes were the best, Yuan Zhou was not included.

Otherwise, what else could they do? he was someone who was higher than the ceiling that ordinary people knew. What could a group of people who could only look at the ceiling do? it would also be very despairing!

The fresh and delicious fish attracted the two people’s attention, and they finished it very quickly. Liu Jian’s last dish, the chicken cooked with sour bamboo shoots, was even more extraordinary. The sour bamboo shoots in Dian province were different from those in GUI province. They did not have the pungent and unpleasant smell, but they still retained the unique taste of the sour bamboo shoots. Therefore, it was even more outstanding when used to cook chicken.

No matter if it was the celestial chicken or the sour bamboo shoot chicken, the taste of chicken meat was unparalleled.

The meal was almost over. The White rice that had not been touched was still there. It was white and steaming, but it still did not attract the attention of the two people.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the last dish.

Kung Pao was no stranger to Sichuan cuisine, such as Kung Pao Chicken, Kung Pao Shrimp, Kung Pao Tofu, and so on. However, it was rare to see Kung Pao in Guizhou cuisine.

“In fact, no matter which cuisines it is, they have their own unique flavors and also have dishes that integrate the characteristics of other cuisines. They are mutually inclusive and integrated, just like our big family in China.

The Kojac tofu was a rare sweet and sour dish in Guizhou cuisine. It had a hint of spiciness, and with the unique sour taste of Guizhou, it had a more lingering charm than the Kojac tofu in Sichuan cuisine.

The prerequisite of making this Kojac tofu was to make good Daddi chili, which was very important. It was the key to the success or failure of this dish.

The translucent tofu and the bright red Daddi chili seemed to be covered in a layer of chili. The fragrance was very strong and the taste was rich.

Anyway, Liu Jian couldn’t help but eat it directly. It wasn’t soft and tender like ordinary tofu, but very crisp, which was different from the tofu made of soybeans.

The texture was fine and almost tasteless, but the addition of the Daddi chili made it colorful, as if it had suddenly come from the foot of the mountain to the top.

He would stand on the top of the mountain and look down on the other mountains.

“It’s delicious. It’s really delicious. ” Liu Xi was at a loss for words. He felt that there was no other word that could describe his current mood other than ‘delicious’.

Liu Xi and Liu Jian were already at their most clear-headed when they remembered to give their seats to other customers in line after eating.

They had no choice but to eat three dishes and a bowl of rice each. They almost couldn’t walk. Usually, they would feel uncomfortable eating more because they were old, but today, they ate more than half of their usual amount. Other than feeling a little full, they didn’t feel anything else.
