Chapter 1325 Zhang Yan Arrives

"Everything is ready." Yuan Zhou stood up and walked to the door, waiting for people to arrive.

As soon as Yuan Zhou reached the door, Liu Xi and Liu Jian came hand in hand. The two old men looked similar and walked at similar paces.

"Hello, you two." Yuan Zhou greeted.

"Good afternoon, Chef Yuan." Liu Xi and Liu Jian said in unison.

"Please come inside, tea is ready." Yuan Zhou extended his hand to signal the two of them to come in.

"Excuse me, Chef Yuan. Next time Chef Yuan goes to Yun Province, we will be our guests." Liu Jiandao.

"Then I, an old man, will lead the way to your province." Liu Xi also continued.

"Okay, I'll bother you two then." Yuan Zhou also responded.

"You're welcome. Sharing cooking skills will help everyone improve, which is a good thing." Liu Jian said in a cheerful tone.

"That's right, you're welcome, Chef Yuan." Liu Xi also waved his hand.

"Then let's go in and get started." Yuan Zhou opened the cherry shrimp wall view door and said.

As soon as the door opened, the crabapple tree was revealed. It was covered with green crabapples, the leaves were slightly red, and the branches stretched out very beautifully.

Walking inside, the yard is not big, but it is cleverly and elegantly arranged. There is a stone table on the side of the house facing the sun. White steam is rising from the small red clay stove above. Apparently the water in it has been opened.

Next to the small stove are tea cups, small cups for drinking tea, tea boxes for placing tea leaves, small bamboo clips, and three matching purple clay cups.

The stone bench next to the table is covered with finely woven thatch mats.

Such an environment with such a tea stove makes people feel comfortable and has a sense of communication, which is very good.

"Although the place in front of Chef Yuan is small, it is a magical place once you enter." Liu Jiandao.

"The second floor here is a tavern, where they drink at night." Yuan Zhou pointed to the place on the second floor that was wrapped in bamboo trees.

"Wonderful, Chef Yuan's design is wonderful." Liu Jian praised.

"It's really a clever idea." Liu Xi also nodded repeatedly.

"Let's communicate here." Yuan Zhou led the two of them to the table.

"Okay." Liu Xi and Liu Jian nodded, and then followed Yuan Zhou to the table.

"Please sit down." Yuan Zhou extended his hand to signal.

"Sit together." Liu Xi said.

Then the three of them sat down together.

After sitting down, Yuanzhou personally demonstrated a simple tea ceremony, and finally poured tea for all three people smoothly.

"Please drink." Yuanzhou put down the teapot.

"I didn't expect that Boss Yuan's cooking skills are so good at such a young age, and his tea ceremony is not bad either." Liu Jian said with emotion.

"I'm not proficient in tea ceremony. I only know a little bit about it. I can only moisturize my throat." Yuan Zhou said seriously.

The three of them chatted for a while while drinking tea. After finishing the first cup of tea, Yuan Zhou poured tea for the two of them before speaking again.

"Let me start by talking about Yunnan cuisine." Yuan Zhou said.

"Let's not say any polite words, Chef Yuan just say it directly." Liu Xi and Liu Jian sat up straight, with serious expressions on their faces.

"Okay, then I'll start right away." Yuan Zhou nodded, and then spoke calmly.

"The cuisine of each region is related to the local natural environment, and Yunnan cuisine is no exception." Yuan Zhou said: "So I roughly divide Yunnan cuisine into five categories by region, Northeast Yunnan, West Yunnan, Southwest Yunnan and Southern Yunnan Region, Central District.”

Liu Jian listened attentively, this division was very strange.

“Because Northeast Yunnan is close to the inland and has relatively convenient transportation, it has had many contacts with the Central Plains since ancient times and borders Sichuan Province. Therefore, the cooking and taste there are similar to Sichuan cuisine, such as Zhanyi spicy chicken and Qujing steamed shredded bait. , spicy stir-fried wild mushrooms and other spicy dishes are represented.”

“Western Yunnan and southwestern Yunnan are areas inhabited by ethnic minorities. In my opinion, because Yunnan Province is adjacent to Myanmar and Laos, its cooking characteristics are influenced by Tibetan, Hui and monastic cuisine, but each retains its own unique characteristics. Our own characteristics are mainly developed with our own ethnic dishes, among which Dali milk fan is one of the representatives.”

Yuanzhou paused and continued: "Finally, southern Yunnan,

There are rich natural resources, abundant products and a mild climate. The staple food is glutinous rice, and the flavor is more Southeast Asian, such as pineapple rice. "

"And the Central Yunnan region in the middle is eclectic and draws on the strengths of others. It has gathered famous chefs like you, Chef Liu Jian, right?" Yuan Zhou said in conclusion.

After Yuan Zhou finished speaking, Liu Jian looked at Yuan Zhou with a complicated expression, and then at his brother Liu Xi before speaking.

"In the beginning, he was my brother," Liu Jian pointed at Liu Xi and continued: "Chef Yuan, you are proficient in Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan cuisine. You also know some dishes from the south of the Yangtze River, and you are even a pastry chef." Master, even comparing ice sculptures with the masters in the ice sculpture world, I didn’t believe it at the time.”

Yuan Zhou and Liu Xi listened quietly without speaking, waiting for Liu Jian to continue.

Liu Jian sighed and continued: "I know there are geniuses in the world, but human energy is limited after all. How can one accomplish so many things at such a young age."

"Old man, let me say something shameless about boasting. I have studied Yunnan cuisine all my life, and now I can only say that I am the master of it. And what about you, Chef Yuan? You are the master of the three cuisines. This person really can't Compare."

Liu Jian said a long paragraph to express his emotion.

Because it was Yuan Zhou himself who was being praised, Yuan Zhou could only let people praise him with a straight face, and it was not easy to disturb the nature of others' praise. After all, being praised was quite comfortable.

On the other hand, Liu Xi on the side had a gentle look on his serious face and joked.

"How about it? Are you convinced after hearing this?" Liu Xi said with a smile.

"I'm not convinced. Although Chef Yuan just briefly talked about the taste of Yunnan cuisine, from this in-depth explanation, you can tell that Chef Yuan is very familiar with Yunnan cuisine and has his own understanding." Liu Jiandao.

"I'm still learning." Yuan Zhou said.

"Chef Yuan is so humble. It's the two of us who are about to be buried who need to learn. It's the right time to come and communicate." Liu Jian shook his head.

"Let's continue. I know that old man Ke Lin came here some time ago. He is good at taste. Let's talk about the cooking of Guizhou cuisine today." Liu Xi couldn't wait to talk about what he wanted to exchange.

"Then let's talk about Yunnan cuisine as a whole. Chef Yuan hasn't talked to anyone about Yunnan cuisine yet," Liu Jian said quickly.

"Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded directly.

Anyway, Yuanzhou is fully prepared and has nothing to fear.

Just when the atmosphere was warm and the three of them were talking to each other, a strong voice came from outside the door.

"Xiao Yuan, Boss Yuan, Chef Yuan, Yuan Zhou, is your bowl rack really made of huanghuali wood?" The voice sounded very clear from far to near, and the three of them stopped in unison.

"Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap )) Following the sound of heavy footsteps, Zhang Yan appeared in front of the three of them.

In the past, Zhang Yan was as gentle as he could be towards Yuan Zhou. He always regarded Yuan Zhou as his treasure. He was a standard Yuan Chui.

This was the first time he yelled at Yuan Zhou like this. Today he came here in a hurry mainly because of two things. The first one was about the bowl rack. As for the second one...

As soon as he saw the two people sitting with Yuan Zhou, the two things were not important in advance. Zhang Yan immediately stopped his angry look and looked at the two brothers Liu Jian and Liu Xi seriously and defensively.

"Why do you, a chef of Guizhou and Yunnan cuisine, come to our Xiao Yuan's place?" Zhang Yan asked seriously.

There is no way, Zhang Yan is naturally wary of chefs who are not from his own province. Who knows that now even people who do carpentry work have to come to their Sichuan cuisine chef world to rob people?
