Reborn – Super Chef

Chapter 191 Arhat Vegetables and Boiled Cabbage

Meat has been poisonous for eighty years, so many people cannot accept the concept of meat. Even after the ban on meat is lifted, some people still maintain the habit of vegetarianism. Except for the group of vegetarians, it is the Lafayette of the Lin family. This kind of people.

Whether it is for health preservation or Buddhist recitation, they stay away from meat dishes. Of course, this is not to say that they are completely uninterested in food. In fact, such people are often more obsessed with food.

For example, the Lafayette of the Lin family, when Ye Chui came here, the old lady sat on the sofa with a smile on her face, as if she couldn't wait to taste the delicious food——Lin Wei is a foodie, Wu Haimei is A big foodie, then this old lady is a big foodie...

"Ye Chui, you're here." Lin Wei bounced over to greet Ye Chui. Wu Haimei was not idle either. Food comes first. This foodie has completely ignored the position of her future mother-in-law and is still eager Helping Ye Chui carry the ingredients, he asked, "Do you have any confidence in today's game?"

"Don't worry, there's no problem." Ye Chui said with a smile.

"What a big breath."

As soon as Ye Chui finished speaking, there was a cold snort from the side, and he turned his head to see a young man with a crew cut, wearing a suit, with a slightly angry expression on his face as if his dignity had been violated.

He looked at Ye Chui and said unhappily: "Master Ye, I heard that you are very famous among the chefs in Xizhou recently, and Mr. Han loves you very much, but the vegetarian cuisine is not an ordinary cuisine. Listen to your words What do you mean, it seems that we don't take our Yangsheng Pavilion seriously?"

"Oh, that's not what I meant." Ye Chui looked very indifferent as the other party glared at him, "It's just that I'm more confident in cooking. If you feel angry, you will lose the game later. I just apologize to you."

Lin Wei whispered into Ye Chui's ear: "Ye Chui, this person is called Sun Li, and he is the boss of Yangsheng Pavilion."

That Sun Li heard what Ye Chui said. Feeling Ye Chui's arrogance even more, he smiled coldly: "That's good, if today our Yangsheng Pavilion is defeated by a young man like you, then I'll just apologize to you properly."

That's it. He stopped talking, and went straight to the three chefs in white clothes. The three chefs also talked a lot, looking at Ye Chui with some hostility in their eyes, and their attitude was very targeted.

Lin Wei muttered unhappily: "This Sun Li was found by that Zhang Ying. He is as annoying as Zhang Ying."

After all, Wu Haimei is an adult, so it's not easy to discuss other people's rights and wrongs directly, but she still whispered to Ye Chui: "Ye Chui depends on you today, if you can win this health care pavilion, what will you do with Weiwei in the future?" I keep one eye open and one eye closed.”

"Mom!" Lin Wei immediately showed an unhappy expression.

Ye Chui laughed out loud, "Okay."

On the sofa in the living room, the Lafayette of the Lin family was sitting happily, Zhang Ying was sitting on one side, and Lin Zhengdao was sitting on the other side. Said: "Mom, you just have to watch this game here, I have something to do with my company and I can't get away. I came to Xizhou to recuperate Hai Mei, but now her anorexia has cured. This is preparing to transfer the business back to Yanjing, a lot of things are waiting for me to take over, and the recent period is the busiest time..."

"No matter how busy you are, you can't compare to your own body. Just leave the company's affairs to Xiaotao, and you can just stay here honestly!" The old lady gave her son an angry look. I'm doing business. It's not worth the trouble to be worn out, you hear me?"

Zhang Ying also chimed in and said, "That's right, Mr. Lin, the body is the foundation of everything, and the business will never be finished. But there is only one body, and this is also my own kindness, Lafayette, you can stay here according to her will." .”

Lin Zhengdao glanced at Zhang Ying quietly with displeasure, and finally had no choice but to agree: "Well, I'll just stay here." He turned his head and glanced at Yu Yan who was standing on the side, "You first Go to the company. Tell Xiao Liu and the others that I have something to do today and I can't get out of it. The project I'm talking about let them continue to work hard. I mean Xiao Liu knows that he can make a decision..."

After such an explanation, Yu Yan agreed to go outside, and when he walked past Ye Chui, this tall and honest man nodded and smiled at Ye Chui, as a greeting.

Ye Chui walked in front of Lin Zhengdao and Lafayette, and greeted with a smile: "Uncle, grandma, hello."

"Ye Chui, you're here. I had a phone call with Mr. Han the day before yesterday and heard him say a lot about you. Today I'm going to feast my mouth." Lin Zhengdao said to Ye Chui with a smile, his voice full of expectation.

"Uncle, you will definitely not be disappointed." Ye Chui said hastily, but he was wondering in his heart, hearing Han Yuyan say that the relationship between Mr. Han and Lin Zhengdao was not harmonious, how could the two still talk on the phone?

"Lafayette, let me introduce you. This is the Sun Li I mentioned to you." Seeing Ye Chui talking with Lin Zhengdao, Zhang Ying was not idle. She immediately stood up and called Sun Li over, and said to Lafayette He introduced, "Sun Li is an expert in vegetarian dishes, and his dishes are very health-preserving. They are not only delicious, but also rich in nutrition. They are very suitable for you to taste, Lafayette."

"Really, I don't know what kind of food you plan to cook, Xiao Sun?" Lafayette immediately showed a very interested expression.

Sun Li glanced at Ye Chui provocatively, and then continued: "The dish I'm going to cook is a classic vegetarian dish—Luohan cuisine!"

"Arhat cuisine?" Lafayette asked expectantly upon hearing the name, "What is Arhat cuisine?"

Sun Li smiled, did not answer Lafayette's question, but looked at Ye Chui, and said with a smile: "I heard that Master Ye has a deep understanding of food. Even Han Lao admires him very much. As a classic Chinese dish, I wonder if Master Ye would like to tell you about the origin of this dish?"

Following Sun Li's words, all eyes were on Ye Chui. Sun Li was deliberately making things difficult for Ye Chui.

But Ye Chui smiled indifferently, and then said: "Okay, actually, I also have some research on Luohan cuisine. This dish is also called Luohanzhai. It originated in the Tang Dynasty. The name of the dish comes from Sakyamuni. Eighteen arhats, disciples of the Buddha, when Sakyamuni Buddha passed away, he asked the eighteen arhats not to enter nirvana, to live forever in the world, and to promote Buddhism. In order to commemorate the eighteen arhats, the monks of the Buddhist temples used eighteen kinds of vegetarian dishes as raw materials to develop this arhat dish. In the Qing Dynasty, this dish became a court dish, and it was listed in the Manchu and Han banquets, and it was very popular with the Empress Dowager Cixi."

Hearing Ye Chui's words, Lin Wei, Wu Haimei and the others were overjoyed, but Zhang Ying and Sun Li's expressions changed one after another. They didn't expect Ye Chui to explain the origin of this arhat dish so clearly.

Sun Li continued unnaturally: "The legend is true, but even if you know the origin of this dish, the recipe for this dish is a secret."

Ye Chui looked at Sun Li with a smile, and continued: "There was a literati named Xue Baochen in the Qing Dynasty who liked to eat vegetarian dishes. He wrote "A Brief Introduction to Vegetarian Foods", in which there is a simple description of Arhat dishes—"Arhat dishes, vegetables, vegetables, and melons." It has been fried with tofu, tofu skin, gluten, vermicelli, etc. in fragrant oil, and stewed in a pot with soup. It has the flavor of Shanjia. Taiyi temples use this method constantly. This description can roughly see that Arhat The origin of the dish, of course, no one can say exactly what the 18 kinds of vegetarian ingredients used in Arhat cuisine have long been clear, and most of the methods handed down from later generations are self-developed, without the flavor of ancient methods."

These words shocked the people in the villa again. If they didn't know that Ye Chui was going to compete with Sun Li in cooking today, they would definitely think that this was what Ye Chui and Sun Li had said long ago.

Sun Li was even more stunned, looking at Ye Chui with astonished eyes. Arhat cuisine is the signature delicacy of Yangsheng Pavilion. He naturally knows this dish very well, but after hearing these introductions from Ye Chui, he felt ashamed. Feel……

And after Ye Chui said this, he smiled and said to Sun Li: "Although most of the Arhat dishes in restaurants now have their own names, they just use the name of Arhat dishes to attract fame, but I believe that the Arhat dishes in your restaurant, Boss Sun The dishes must be worthy of the name."

Although this was a compliment, everyone could hear it. Ye Chui satirized Sun Li's arhat cuisine for being unorthodox.

In fact, this is indeed the case. The Arhat recipe in Sun Li’s Health Pavilion was completely developed by Sun Li himself. After several years of gradual improvement and some methods of his, he gradually became famous. When it comes to this dish Whether it is orthodox or not, he knows for himself, which immediately showed a timid look on his face.

Ye Chui still had a smile on his face.

Arhat dishes are mainly cooked with 18 kinds of ingredients. The most important thing about the recipe of this dish is what these 18 kinds of ingredients are. Because of the long history, various flavors of Arhat dishes emerge in endlessly, and the original recipe has long been very difficult to find. Well, some restaurants just randomly select 18 kinds of ingredients and stew them together, and name it the name of Luohan cuisine, but in fact, how can it be so simple?

Arhat cuisine ranks in the [Imperial Taste] level of the Manchu Banquet. Ye Chui had studied this dish in detail for the Manhan Banquet, and even mastered the original recipe of this dish. That is the most delicious and authentic Arhat dish.

Sun Li originally wanted to make things difficult for Ye Chui, but was robbed by Ye Chui. His face was a little ashamed and angry, and he followed him and asked: "I didn't expect Master Ye to know Luo Han cuisine. Today, we are going to meet our opponents in the health care pavilion. However, I don't know what dish you are going to cook today, Master Ye, to compete with our Yangsheng Pavilion?"

"Hehe, the dishes I cook are not as famous as yours, Boss Sun, and they are very simple."

Ye Chui took the food bag from Wu Haimei, and took out a Chinese cabbage from it: "I'm going to make boiled cabbage." (~^~)
