There are rules for serving dishes and wine in restaurants, especially in winter, even if the restaurant is turned on with air conditioning and heating, it is necessary to serve hot dishes and wine at the same time. When the wine and vegetables are warm, people's hearts will be warmer.

Of course, this is about old taverns and big wine jars. The first is that there are not many dishes and the taste is unique. The second is that the word "白" is that the word "白" is so important that the wine and dishes are both warm and warm. If it were some big restaurants, there was no service for warm wine at all. This is the essential difference between tavern culture and hotel culture.

A corner of rose dew and a large plate of lard and osmanthus cake were quickly placed in front of Zhou Dong. Not only were the wine and dishes hot, but even the plates used to place lard and osmanthus cakes were warm.

After the perfect level of tasting skills is activated, Zhou Dong can smell the unique aroma of rose dew without pouring out the wine. Wu Tingze is dissatisfied on the surface, but in fact he still attaches great importance to him, the "young Master". This wine should be an aged wine that has been stored for at least five years, which is incomparable to what Gu Yanan brought back.

Zhou Dong was a little satisfied, but he was not anxious to taste the wine. Instead, he carefully watched Yan Xiang's specialty lard and osmanthus cake.

"Well, this osmanthus cake is also done well, but if you look at it by my standards, there is still room for improvement..."

That day, there was also a piece of osmanthus cake in the wine and food that Gu Yanan packed back. Zhou Dong tasted it and felt quite satisfied. Not to mention that Yan Xiang's skills are remarkable, this thing is the most in line with the concept of "diligent action".

Lard and osmanthus cake is actually a type of rice cake, and it also uses "cake beating" as the best. Anyone who has done "cake beating" knows that this is a laborious job. Most people will suffer from back pain after a few minutes.

Moreover, the common food such as cakes really don’t make much profit, and the efforts and gains are not balanced, so many chefs start to reduce the process and save their energy.

Just talk about the delicacy of lard and osmanthus cake, it is possible to make it by making cakes, and it can be mixed up with yeast fermentation. However, the latter looks more like a dough roll, but they also added lard and osmanthus, so you can't say it is a fake and shoddy product.

Zhou Dong was still very sure of Yan Xiang's persistence, so the fat man and the others suffered. Zhou Dong believed that a qualified chef should first be respectful to his career and then be able to be proficient in his career. Even if he could improve his talent and insight, he could not improve his diligence.

There are not many examples of talent but lack of diligence that ultimately lead to failure.

Teaching students to make cakes, teachers need to practice it. Zhou Dong has practiced this lard and osmanthus cake in the kitchen of the Creation these days.

This is really not for Yan Xiang. It was just Zhou Dong who was on a whim. He put such a lot of effort into teaching a few students.

Yan Xiang didn't know that Zhou Dong is now a big expert in making lard and osmanthus cake. He came over and asked with a smile: "Chef Zhou, how do I make this lard and osmanthus cake?"

"It's very good. Now there are not many people who are willing to make cakes like you."

Zhou Dong nodded slightly, Yan Xiang's craftsmanship really deserves his praise.

The lard osmanthus cake placed on the thin white porcelain plate is light and fragrant. It does have the meaning of the fragrance of osmanthus flowers. Moreover, Yanxiang has indeed put a lot of effort into this delicacy. This cake is like a cold cake, crystal clear, and a faint jade yellow color.

Looking closely at the light, you can also see the irregular scattering of osmanthus petals in the nearly transparent cake, just like bright amber and jade flowers, which are first-class in appearance!

"Haha, Chef Zhou is really a sensible person."

Yan Xiang laughed loudly, feeling that Chef Zhou is actually quite friendly, at least better than the fourth brother. Every time he eats his own lard and osmanthus cake, he always picks his nose and says it is for his own good! Look how much people encourage me?

Zhou Dong picked up a piece of cake and chewed it carefully in his mouth. He nodded first and said, "Master Yan's skill in kneading noodles is very profound. You should have put in at least twenty years on the white table, right? Otherwise, you would not be able to knead 70% of the high-gluten flour and 30% of the glutinous rice flour so thoroughly and close to perfection."

Yan Yingguang lit up and raised his thumbs up and said, "Expert!

Chef Zhou is indeed worthy of being the King of Zhou Noodles. After these two flours are reconciled, but after experiencing the "cake-making" procedure, you have long been in me and I have you, and I have become the mandarin duck noodles. In this way, you can eat the ratio. There is no way to say this!”

Before he knew it, he actually used honorific words to Zhou Dong.

Xiong Buer smiled and looked at Lao Wu. This kid actually knew that he was humble and respectful, which was really rare.

“It’s a pity that it’s not the time for flowers to bloom…”

Zhou Dong shook his head again: "The key point is one meat and one vegetable, one turbid and one clear, with a thick taste and a quiet taste. The stronger the contrast between these two flavors, the closer they are to perfection.

There are new products waiting to be used all year round. As long as the chef passes the skills, it will not become a shortcoming of this dish, but this osmanthus is different..."

Yan Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone knows the fragrance of August osmanthus. Of course, this lard osmanthus cake is best to choose fresh and plump osmanthus, but it is winter now.

Actually, the osmanthus I used..."

“It has been very well preserved.

Moreover, when the osmanthus is fresh, it is far better than the ordinary osmanthus. Not only is it perfect in shape, but it also has all the stamens."

Zhou Dong smiled and said, "Where is the osmanthus from this? Is it from Laoxionggou?

This kind of flower grows on the eastern foot of Ximalaya, and is not afraid of the cold. Moreover, the colder the place, the stronger the fragrance of flowers. It is the best ingredient used to make lard and osmanthus cake."

Huabiao Interface smiled and said, "Chef Zhou is indeed the Fang family."

That’s right, this kind of osmanthus grows deep in Laoxionggou, which is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Although it is cold, the wind is not cold, so osmanthus grows.

The flowering season of this kind of osmanthus is two months earlier than that of the south. In fact, Lao Wu picked and collected four months in advance. In order to preserve the fragrance of flowers as much as possible, Lao Wu did not use semi-dehydration methods. In order to prevent the odor from occurring, he did not store it directly in the refrigerator."

Zhou Dong nodded: "But wrap it in oil paper first, then put the osmanthus flowers in the old forests of the three northern provinces and freeze them overnight. When it is frozen, it will be stored in the refrigerator or freezer?

This will not only save osmanthus flowers to the greatest extent, but also will not worry about being affected by the odor in the refrigerator."

Perfect taste can already provide various information about food, and even the method of Yan Xiang preserving osmanthus flowers was revealed by Zhou Dong in one sentence.

This is just perfect. Zhou Dong can't imagine that the legendary taste should be so strong. Could it be that he really needs to go deep into the psychological and physiological levels?

It feels a little creepy...

After hearing Zhou Dong's account, the five brothers of Laoxionggou felt shocked. This method of preserving osmanthus is not uncommon, but it is Yan Xiang's original creation. After all, they also like to make lard osmanthus cakes, and they also happen to be in the three northern provinces, and they also like to use their brains. It is really difficult to change to other chefs.

But Zhou Dong seemed to have witnessed it with his own eyes, and he told the whole process exactly, which was a bit amazing.

"Has the King of Zhou also visited the Northern Three Provinces, and like me, he loves making lard and osmanthus cake?"

Yan Zhiying was stunned and thought for a long time before he found this seemingly reasonable explanation.

Zhou Dong just smiled without saying a word, pretending to be a mysterious master is the most unreasonable and reasonable explanation.

"Hey, I almost forgot that you are the King of China. What's so strange about knowing this?"

Yan Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "Since the King of Zhou even knows how to preserve this osmanthus, he must also know that I have tried my best.

But the osmanthus preserved in this way is not as good as fresh products, and the taste of lard osmanthus cake will naturally be affected. If it were the season when osmanthus is fragrant, my lard osmanthus cake will definitely be more delicious!”

"hehe......"

Zhou Dong shook his head slightly: "This is not a reason.

If the customer wants to have a better osmanthus cake, should you tell the customer to wait until the osmanthus is fragrant next year?"

“Uh, this…”

Yan Xiang actually wanted to reply, what's the problem? Don't the chefs who make lard and osmanthus cakes in the world say this? But when Zhou Dong, who was smiling and calm on his face, felt relieved, and he couldn't say this sentence.

But Niu Yuzhe said for him: "Chef Zhou, my fifth brother may have limited skills, which makes you laugh.

But I am also very curious. Could it be that you have a way to make the frozen and fresh osmanthus flowers comparable to the fragrance season?”

Xiong Buer shook his head secretly when he heard this. The third brother was always steady. How could he ask such a question today? Isn’t this making Chef Zhou unable to step down?

Zhou Dong looked at the Lao Xionggou brothers, and suddenly laughed loudly and said, "That's it!

It is the scenery in Jiangnan that is beautiful, and I meet you again when the flowers bloom!

Chu Capital is the northern land for the south, and the southern land for the north. Since we met you in Chu Capital today, if the flowers don’t bloom, wouldn’t it be boring?”

Well, it feels so good to pretend to be x. It is said that if you don’t pretend to be x, you are not a master. Zhou Dong is gradually getting the three flavors now. Although this x has not yet reached the highest level of ‘invisible’, it is also fresh and refined.

"This is impossible, how is this possible!"

Yan Xiang looked at Zhou Dong blankly and suddenly remembered a joke from Master Ghost back then.

"Little Swallow, you boast in front of your master every day, saying that when the osmanthus is fragrant, the lard osmanthus cake you make can make foodies all over the world salivate.

But the master wants to ask you, what should you do in winter? Can you say that your craftsmanship can only last for one season?"

"Master, you are joking again. There is no fresh osmanthus in winter. I can't do the best. Isn't other chefs the same?"

"Haha, that's not necessarily...

Anyway, the master knows that there is a kind of chef in this world who has the means to make the dead trees spring. In their hands, when will the osmanthus fragrance not be fragrant?”

"Master, is it true? Are you such a chef! Teach me!"

"Haha, the master wants to teach you too, but unfortunately the master has his own strengths. My strengths are always in winemaking. Have you not seen the master bring this big wine gourd wherever he goes?

But you have to remember the master's words. If you have the chance to meet such a chef, don't be ashamed. Just pounce on him and stick to him!"
