Chapter 1557: The sourness of the qiangcai

Time sometimes passed very quickly and sometimes very slowly. For the people who came to attend Yuan Zhou’s personal cooking exhibition, time naturally passed too slowly. They felt that they had to sleep for a long time every day before they could eat their next meal.

For Yuan Zhou, however, time passed very quickly. He had only slept for two days and it was already the third day of the cooking exhibition, the autumn theme.

Just like yesterday, Yuan Zhou finished cleaning up at 3:50 am and prepared to walk towards the banquet hall. At this time, the streets were much more crowded than yesterday.

Most of them were the journalists who didn’t know Yuan Zhou’s habits yesterday and missed his early morning. They were waiting outside the door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, waiting to shoot the scene of Yuan Zhou going to the banquet hall.

“You’re up really early. ” The reporters couldn’t help but think this as they watched the door open.

Regardless of what the reporters thought, Yuan Zhou came out wearing the Han Chinese clothing that was suitable for autumn. The Han Chinese clothing today was embroidered with the autumn lotus leaves on the collar and the lower hem.

By the way, the theme of yesterday’s summer was the Han Chinese clothing that Yuan Zhou was wearing. It was like a blooming summer Lotus, complicated and gorgeous.

The moment he opened the door, he was faced with a group of cameras. Yuan Zhou was slightly startled, but he soon calmed down. After greeting the reporters with a nod, he continued to walk in the direction of the banquet hall.

When he arrived at the entrance, Yuan Zhou went through the security check as usual and then entered the banquet hall. When he arrived, master Cheng was still waiting there.

“Didn’t I tell you to come at seven?” Yuan Zhou said.

“The master is already here, how can the disciple sleep on the bed?” Master Cheng stroked his head and said embarrassedly, but he still insisted on following Yuan Zhou.

“You’ve already done very well. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“Thank you, master. I will continue to work hard.” Master Cheng clenched his fists and said energetically.

“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and didn’t persuade him anymore.

Master Cheng would always listen to Yuan Zhou’s every word. However, when it came to respecting his master, master Cheng had always done his duty and fulfilled all the respect that an apprentice would have for his master.

Even if Yuan Zhou didn’t care about some small details, master Cheng would still do it meticulously, just like now.

In fact, master Cheng had already tidied up the banquet hall last night. Even if he came here now, he wouldn’t be able to help, because Yuan Zhou’s Kitchen didn’t need a second person.

Even if he couldn’t help and could only stand aside and watch like the previous two days, master Cheng would still arrive before Yuan Zhou. For him, this was what an apprentice should do.

He arrived at the kitchen at 4 o’ clock and started to prepare the ingredients. Yuan Zhou worked for three hours. In the remaining time, Yuan Zhou started to prepare the breakfast for today.

While Yuan Zhou was preparing the breakfast, people started to enter the banquet hall one after another.

The first batch of people who came were basically famous chefs from all over the country. Dashi xiujie was the first one to come.

Dashi xiujie was dressed in a white chef’s uniform. He stood behind the partition of the open kitchen seriously and stared at Yuan Zhou’s movements with a burning gaze.

“This kid looks so annoying.” Not knowing why, master Cheng disliked dashi xiujie very much.

Perhaps, dashi xiujie’s vision was too similar to his.

That’s right. Dashi xiujie’s current appearance was the same as when master Cheng wanted to acknowledge Yuan Zhou as his master. His eyes were firm and his face revealed a respectful expression.

Therefore, when master Cheng saw dashi xiujie in this way, he instinctively disliked him. In other words, the same sex repelled each other.

As he didn’t want to fall behind the others, just like the previous two days, the time of arrival of the guests was basically around 8:00 A. M. When everyone was in order and after Zhou Shijie’s opening speech, Yuan Zhou went on the stage again.

“Welcome to my personal cooking exhibition. Today’s theme is autumn, and I’ll be using Qian cuisine.” Yuan Zhou didn’t say anything and just said directly.

“Since Guizhou cuisine is located in a multi-ethnic area, I will present the characteristics of the diverse ethnic groups in this dish. I hope everyone will like it.” After Yuan Zhou said those polite words as usual, he announced the start of the breakfast after a pause.

“The breakfast for this autumn is Yuan Zhou’s self-made five color glutinous rice with pea soup.” After Yuan Zhou said that solemnly, he got off the stage.

As soon as Yuan Zhou’s voice fell, Yin ya’s English translation also ended. Then, Zhou Shijie began to explain Guizhou cuisine to everyone.

There were many cuisines in China, but the qiqian cuisines were not as famous as the other cuisines in China. Therefore, the guests were listening to Zhou Shijie’s explanation with great interest.

Even the politicians at the side listened very seriously. They even had a new understanding of China in their hearts.

After all, they all knew that China was vast and had abundant resources, but they didn’t have a clear concept of it. However, after this cooking exhibition, they had a clear idea.

That was, there were so many different things just by eating. From the taste to the material selection, to the meaning contained, they were all rich and colorful, and not the same.

“I wonder what kind of surprise head chef Yuan will give us today.” The Prince of Thailand said.

“I’m also looking forward to Mr. Yuan’s cooking. China is indeed a sleeping lion.” A cabinet minister of the Japanese side said.

“I didn’t expect China to be able to come up with so many new ways of eating. I’m really impressed.” The politicians of Korea also said.

“Actually, eating this is just a small way for us in China. It’s just a small way. The country is prosperous and stable, so everyone loves to eat it.” Department head Hao smiled and said humbly.

“Yes, eating is just one of the characteristics of China. We attach great importance to every industry.” He Zhenghong followed in Minister Qu’s footsteps and said humbly.

As a matter of fact, the expressions of the two people were full of pride. The way they looked at Yuan Zhou was no different from looking at a rare treasure.

After that, Yuan Zhou could totally be said to be the name card of Chinese cuisine.

All the compliments and honors were brought by Yuan Zhou. Therefore, the two of them looked at each other and continued to show off while being modest. They even specially pointed out that the Guizhou cuisine was not from the eight major cuisines but from one of the provincial cuisines.

When it came to acting cool, no one present could compare to he Zhenghong and Minister Hao. Didn’t you see that the political leaders present didn’t understand what they were saying, but were also very envious?

That was not all. After breakfast, it was the official start of the day. The snacks prepared by Yuan Zhou were the more exquisite Jiangsu-style boat ordering food.

The exquisite ferry stations and the entire set of bamboo tableware today were an eye-opener for the politicians. It was much more abundant than the state banquet, and it was steaming hot when they came up. It was so exquisite and lovely that people couldn’t bear to eat it immediately even though they knew the taste.

“Oh my God, this is so exquisite. Can it really be eaten?” Auguste and Manfeld could not help but exclaim.

“Oh, I can help you.” Francis, whose mouth was full of food, immediately said.

“It’s such a waste to let you eat it. ” Auguste looked at the peony that Francis had bitten, his face full of pain.

“I can help,” Chu Xiao said with an indifferent expression.

It was fine when Francis opened his mouth, but when Chu Xiao opened his mouth, Manfred and Auguste couldn’t help but reach out to protect their food. After all, Chu Xiao had a good tongue that could taste delicious food.

“Forget it, I’m going to keep it and eat it slowly.” The two of them shook their heads and protected the bamboo cage in front of them. They didn’t even want to look at it.

If the snacks were so sour, then the main course was needless to say. Today, Yuan Zhou had let people experience the extreme sourness.

That’s right. The guests had witnessed Yuan Zhou’s changes in taste yesterday and today, Yuan Zhou had reached a new height in the aspect of sourness.

Just like what Yuan Zhou had said, Guizhou cuisine was a multi-ethnic fusion dish. In Guizhou cuisine, there was a saying,”walking without eating sour for three days”. From this, one could see the status of sour in Guizhou cuisine.

This time, Yuan Zhou didn’t use the cooking method of having a grid for each dish. Instead, he used a map of the entire Guizhou Province to represent the dish.

Yuan Zhou had sculpted a bamboo plate. The shape of the plate was exactly like a 1:1 scaled-down version of the map of Guizhou.

The plate was like an exquisite jade pendant and also like a pig running enthusiastically. It was both cute and interesting, and it also vividly showed the characteristics of the landscape of Guizhou.

Each dish was placed in a corresponding place on the map. If the place was a Hill, it would be arranged in the shape of a Hill.

Thailand, Vietnam and other countries also loved to eat sour. Today, Yuan Zhou would let them know that sour could also play tricks!
