2057 Accumulation in cooking

After the two people entered the restaurant, Yuan Zhou poured two glasses of water and said,""Do you need my help with anything?"

"This is my friend, Guo penghao. He has something that he needs boss Yuan's help with." Lei Wen sold Guo penghao out.

Guo penghao finally said in embarrassment,""It's like this. I have a dish that I think definitely exists, but many chefs can't make it. Therefore, I want to ask boss Yuan to have a look. "

Before coming here, Guo penghao had tried to get to know Yuan Zhou. He really wouldn't have known if he hadn't looked at him. The moment he did, he was startled. He only realized that Yuan Zhou wasn't only famous, but also had the ability to kill people in seconds.

"What dish is it?" When Yuan Zhou was at the Gaogou restaurant, many famous chefs would also take out dishes that were difficult to replicate to exchange with him.

"Ahem, the order is reversed. Did we agree on this before?" Lei di coughed and reminded him.

"Oh, right. I have an incomplete hundred-year-old recipe here. First, please open your eyes, head chef Yuan." Guo penghao immediately reacted after being reminded.

He opened his briefcase and took out the Rosewood box. He placed it on the partition in front of him."Click." The pocket-sized catch on it was opened, revealing the yellowed pages inside.

It was indeed incomplete. At a glance, one could see the tear marks. Fortunately, the tear marks were intact on purpose, and it was possible to find the missing parts.

Not all ancient recipes were good. There were even many improved dishes in modern times that were more in line with the taste of modern people. Of course, there were many dishes that could not be restored in modern times.

The moment Yuan Zhou saw the page, he felt that it was a real ancient book. The feeling of rich history hit him in the face. It had indeed experienced the passing of time.

"Can I take a closer look?" Yuan Zhou was quite interested in recipes.

"Of course, no problem." Guo penghao said immediately.

Only after he took out the disposable plastic gloves and put them on did Yuan Zhou slowly reach out his hand to take out the menu and check it carefully.

In addition to the obvious tear marks, there were also some places with wormholes, which should have been caused by improper storage a long time ago.

"Whoosh"

He turned a page and started to read it carefully. Although he couldn't identify antiques, he was very familiar with cooking. He could judge whether it was an ancient book from the ingredients and cooking methods.

After reading for about 10 minutes, Yuan Zhou turned five pages in total. He read each page very seriously, which was almost the same for the treasure appraisal section.

Perhaps Yuan Zhou's serious expression had affected the two people at the scene, Lei ti and Guo penghao also became nervous.

"How is it?" Seeing Yuan Zhou put down the book, Guo penghao immediately asked.

"I don't know much about antiques, but some of the names of the ingredients in it are indeed quite old, such as kun meat, kun vegetables, and so on. If it was fake, I would need to look up a lot of information. So far, I haven't seen any mistakes that are relevant to the times."

"The seasoning is also heavy. At first glance, it should be the Tang Dynasty or before the Tang Dynasty, but not earlier than the Han Dynasty, because there is pepper in the seasoning."

"In addition, I'm more inclined to believe that the ancient book is from the Tang Dynasty, because this method of putting the duck meat on the belly of the Lamb is similar to a famous Palace dish of the Tang Dynasty," huhu "lamb." Yuan Zhou said.

On hearing Yuan Zhou's words, the two of them couldn't help nodding their heads. It was reasonable and well-founded.

Guo penghao nodded his head repeatedly, thinking that this was indeed the famous boss Yuan. Just by looking at his knowledge, he was already incomparable to ordinary chefs. He could deduce such a thing just from some names.

There was also the 'hundyang Buhu', which Guo penghao had never even heard of.

"Boss Yuan is much more reliable than the experts." Guo penghao judged in his heart that he had once taken an antique to be appraised by an expert, and then he had been cheated.

Once bitten by a snake, twice shy. Guo penghao no longer believed in experts.

"There's only a small part of the latter part of this ancient book. It's probably a record of a banquet. Right now, we can only see a few desserts and the soup dish at the end. There's only one main dish. You said that you don't know if there's a dish or not before." Yuan Zhou asked.

For now, the dishes in the ancient book were at most a little difficult to find the ingredients, which was absolutely different from 'I don't know if I can make it'.

Guo penghao rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed.""It's two things. That dish isn't in this ancient book. It's mentioned in a random family record. I'm very interested in it, so I wrote it down."

The way Guo penghao spoke was really artistic. Anyone would think that the dish was in an ancient book.

But in fact, Guo penghao had an ancient book, and many chefs wanted to borrow it to read. His request was to make that dish, which was why he said that many chefs wanted to cheat him of the ancient book.

"That's just his temper. He always asks about the root of everything. We hope boss yuan can make a judgment on this. This ancient book is brought here for boss Yuan to study. It can also be considered as us contributing to this industry. Don't decline it. " Lei di said directly.

Even though Lei ti usually didn't know how to speak human language and would always scold people when he spoke, he was very respectful to Yuan Zhou and was very polite.

"Yes, yes, Yes, that's right." Guo penghao immediately followed Lei Di's lead and climbed up.

"First, show me the dish you mentioned. It's the written record." "Did you bring it?" Yuan Zhou asked.

"Yes, I did. Head chef Yuan, please take a look."

Guo penghao was so happy that he nimbly took out another wooden box from the bag that he had just taken out.

The size was similar, but the box was dark yellow in color and had a smooth surface. The paste on the corners was very smooth, and it was obvious that someone often played with it. There was a lively Eagle carved on it, which was a very strange pattern.

"Pa da"

Guo penghao opened it carefully, revealing a book with slightly yellowed pages. It was estimated to be at least three generations older.

"Hua la"

Guo penghao carefully flipped through the book and turned to the pages that he was already very familiar with. Then, he placed the book in front of Yuan Zhou and said,""Head chef Yuan, please take a look. It's this way."

[Yu wusui has tasted a strange thing. The fragrance is overflowing. It's both crisp and sticky, cold and hot. It's amazing. [It's very strange. After years of passing, I got it by chance. It's said to be round and round, sweet and salty, crisp and fragrant. It doesn't lie to me.]

It was just a short line of words and there wasn't much. Yuan Zhou finished reading it at a glance. But when he took a quick look, it was like a running account. It was probably that he heard of a delicious dish and finally ate it. And it was well-deserved?

The name was also very strange. Was the name of the dish Yin, Qing, Yuan, and que?

For a moment, Yuan Zhou felt a little confused. Although he knew that the ancient people liked to give meaningful names, it wasn't ...

Yuan Zhou was afraid that he might miss something, so he carefully turned one page forward and then another page back. Except for a season that should be spring, he didn't find anything special.

"I can't say for sure. I need to study it." Yuan Zhou said directly.

"It's fine, it's fine. It's good that it has research value. Head chef Yuan, you can study it however you want." Guo penghao said immediately when he saw that there was hope.

"As long as you don't delay boss Yuan's time." Lei ti said.

"It's okay. I'm also really curious when the dishes can be named Yin, Qing, Yuan, and que. If it can really be developed, you can come and try." Yuan Zhou said.

Before Lei di could speak, Guo penghao immediately took over the conversation and said,""No problem, no problem. I've been wanting an answer for a long time. Thank you for your hard work, head chef Yuan."

Lei ti rolled his eyes at Guo penghao, who seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. Then, he turned his head and said to Yuan Zhou in a gentle voice,""Boss Yuan, you can make the decision."

"You need to leave this book with me. I need to check it before I can make a final decision." Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said.

"No problem, no problem." Guo penghao agreed repeatedly. Then, he directly closed the two boxes and handed the two books to Yuan Zhou.
