Chapter 2598: Black bean hotpot

Translator: 549690339 

As a hotpot unique to Guizhou Province, the black bean hotpot had its own charm. The fragrant and spicy taste and the little story about the origin of the black bean hotpot from Yan junchang made him feel very satisfied. It would be even better if he could eat it right away.

Master chef restaurant’s hotpot naturally had its own specialty. Although there was no limit, each type could only be ordered once. Naturally, there was no need to go into detail. Besides the main ingredients, each type of hotpot had a different side dish. You could really order whatever you wanted to eat.

As a hotpot that could boil anything, it naturally had its charm.

The main ingredient of the black bean hotpot was the Daddi chili, which could be said to be the soul of Guizhou cuisine. In many places, many dishes needed to use it more or less.

He remembered that the first time Yuan Zhou made the Daddi chili was when Collin made it for Yuan Zhou to taste. In order to return the favor, he also made a portion of it as a gift.

At that time, he was also greatly astonished by Yuan Zhou. At that time, he had already started to give him special training secretly, hoping that he could become Yuan Zhou’s disciple if he could improve a little more.

Before he could put it into action, Yuan Zhou had already started to prepare to recruit in-name disciples. Luck was always on his side.

Hence, under his father’s iron pot-like education, Kosen could only bravely move forward. It was not easy for him to get a spot, and it was really a matter of great joy and sorrow.

Those things had happened several years ago. Yuan Zhou’s cooking skills were improving every day. It was not a lie. The Daddi chili that appeared in front of everyone now was something that not only Yan junchang, who was very familiar with it, but also Colin, who was an expert in this field, dared not recognize.

“Hiss, I didn’t expect head chef Yuan’s culinary skills to be unprecedented. He’s simply too amazing.” Yan junchang’s eyes sparkled.

There was a reason why he was so excited. The classic hotpot style of Qin Fang’s hotpot was the black bean hotpot, and as the soul of the black bean hotpot, he had invited many people. After thousands of trials and errors and several improvements, it was developed and deeply loved by the vast number of consumers.

Yan junchang had never thought that he would be amazed by the Daddi chili today. Just the rich color, the fragrant smell, and the distant fragrance were enough to make people forget the customs. Didn’t you see that those who had never eaten the black bean hotpot before were starting to swallow their saliva?

It was du Zijun’s plan. Therefore, after he opened his mouth and said to start eating, everyone quickly picked up their chopsticks and picked up the dishes that they had long fancied. They put them into the red pot and started to cook.

Some liked hot beef. They cut it so thin that it was almost as thin as paper, and the texture of the beef was clear. The beef, which looked very glossy and smooth, was immediately rolled up slightly after being washed by the red broth. It was glowing with a Jade-colored luster, and it looked very beautiful. Even though it was wrapped in such a strong fragrance, one could still smell a faint Milky fragrance. One could completely imagine how enjoyable it would be if this piece of beef entered one’s mouth.

Du fan couldn’t resist the temptation. He put the beef slice into his mouth very cleanly. No matter how much he imagined, he couldn’t resist the shock of eating it in his mouth. It was fresh, spicy, smooth and tender. Even if it was thin, a lot of juice was still retained. With a bite of his teeth, the juice burst out. It was delicious.

“Oh, it’s so delicious. It’s a little spicy too. The taste of this beef is really good, but I think I scalded it for one more second. Next time, I’ll definitely not scald it for a while more. Maybe it’ll taste better.” Du fan reflected in his heart, but his movements did not slow down, and he scalded himself again.

On the other hand, Yan junchang, who had been waiting for a long time, chose wild vegetables from Guizhou. It wasn’t a secret in the industry that he liked to use black bean hotpot to cook wild vegetables. He especially enjoyed the feeling of the hot and spicy soup hidden inside the leaves stimulating his throat. It was simply intoxicating.

Just by looking at Yan junchang’s sweaty face, one could tell how much he was enjoying it.

Du Zijun himself had his own purpose. He intended to learn how to make black bean hotpot and see if he could develop a new type of hotpot with the famous stinky black bean in Guizhou. The predecessor planted trees, and the successor enjoyed the shade. However, as the successor and his son’s predecessor, du Zijun obviously knew the principle of planting more trees.

He worked very hard. With this goal in mind, he didn’t eat the vegetables hot at the beginning, but directly dipped them in some ingredients from the bottom of the pot.

Logically speaking, with such a strong color, the taste should not be light. It should be very strong. However, when it was in his mouth, he knew that it was not the case. Although it was indeed a little more flavorful than usual, the spiciness was just right. It was not dry and spicy, but a little moist. Not only were there soft and sticky fermented bean, but there were also fragrant and spicy Daddi chili. There seemed to be some special spices added to it. However, du Zijun couldn’t taste it and had to dip his chopsticks in it again.

Not to mention him eating the hotpot base, the scene of others heating the hotpot didn’t seem out of place at all.

It wasn’t just Yan junchang’s table that was very lively. After all, eating hotpot was just for fun. The other tables were also very lively.

The diners came from all over the world, so the hotpot they ordered was naturally very different. Some came here specifically to order the hotpot from their hometown, such as the fish head hotpot from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the beef hotpot from Chaoshan, and the mushroom soup hotpot from Yunnan.

There were also people who specially came to eat Sichuan’s spicy hot pot, Yuanyang hot pot, or the nine-grid hot pot in the mountain City. Anyway, there was nothing that you couldn’t eat.

As the hotpot Encyclopedia provided by the system, it even had some long-lost hotpots. It could be considered to have everything. It was definitely the most complete place to eat hotpot in China and even in the world. However, because the quota was too small, not many people had eaten it. Therefore, although the news spread quickly, the coverage rate was still relatively small.

After all, it had only been half a month. No matter how fast it was, it couldn’t be spread all over the world.

The reason why Yuan Zhou wanted to take care of Yin ya’s health was that he would always prepare some nourishing hotpot for Yin ya to nourish her body during the hotpot days.

This time, Yuan Zhou prepared the white fish hotpot for Yin ya to nourish her body. It just so happened that the fat content was relatively low. Besides, the other side dishes were all fish and beef, which had relatively low fat content. This was also in line with Yin ya’s repeated emphasis that she needed to pay attention to her figure recently.

In fact, there was a reason for this. With Yuan Zhou around, Yin ya would never lose weight. It had already taken her a lot of effort to maintain her weight, not to mention that Yuan Zhou had started to feed her with tonics since winter had arrived. He said that she would lose weight.

Other people usually put on their fat in autumn, but for her, it was better to put on their fat in autumn and put on their fat in winter together. However, she couldn’t refuse Yuan Zhou’s delicious food.

However, there was still less than a month left. Yin ya was going to attend an international exchange meeting. Although she was going with the senior management of the company, it was still an opportunity for her to show her face. Therefore, Yin ya emphasized to Yuan Zhou that she was fine with having supper and meals, but she would try to choose the food with less fat content.

For Yuan Zhou, who had mastered many cuisines, this was also a piece of cake. The Whitefish hotpot today was a good example.
