Chapter 89 Bamboo Leaf Zongzi

"President, I lost." Liu Hui said with a dejected expression.

Jiang Chengren squeezed a smile on his face, and sighed: "Cui Yuhao has won national awards after all, it's normal for you to lose. Don't take the victory too seriously, you can get more than 80 points in the hands of Wang Nianhua , has done very well.”

Afterwards, the host announced the winner of the match. Cui Yuhao looked indifferently, looked at the crowd watching the match below, and said loudly: "There is still a lot of time today, who is willing to come up and compete with me?"

As soon as the words came out, the people below immediately exploded.I think Cui Yuhao is too arrogant.

"You guy, do you really think that your culinary skills are invincible in the world?" A man with a Chinese face and a strong figure stood up in casual clothes, and walked to the competition stage angrily, "I, Luo Xuan, came to teach you cooking."

"President, who is this Luo Xuan?" Liu Hui asked.

Jiang Chengren said in a deep voice: "This Luo Xuan is a disciple of an old friend of mine, and now he is the head chef of the Kyushu Hotel in Qingchang City. His cooking skills are amazing."

Although Liu Hui didn't know Luo Xuan, he also knew Kyushu Hotel.Kyushu Hotel is a very famous five-star hotel in Linjiang Province. It is good at cooking Hunan cuisine and is quite famous in the province.

Although he felt that Luo Xuan's culinary skills were superior to his own, Liu Hui still couldn't help worrying: "President, although Luo Xuan is powerful, this Cui Yuhao is not a vegetarian, can he win?"

Jiang Chengren sighed, and said: "I don't know, I just hope that Luo Xuan can kill Cui Yuhao's prestige. If things go on like this, our country's catering industry will be like Yingzhou, who will be severely punished by this Cui Yuhao." stepped on the ground."

At the same time, people in Daqing Village and others also received news from the urban area.

Huang Buhua's face was a little heavy. After all, it was his apprentice who was defeated. "This Cui Yuhao is very strong! He can beat Liu Hui by more than ten points in every dish."

As a senior chef, Huang Buhua naturally knows what it means to lead by more than ten points.

Generally speaking, after chefs reach a certain level, the gap between them will not be too obvious.If two people cook a dish at the same time, it will not happen that one has only 90 points and the other has more than [-] points.The difference between most chefs is only two or three points.

According to the [-]-[-] law, two points of effort can achieve eight points of achievement, while the remaining two points of achievement require eight points of energy.So the higher the chef level, the smaller the gap between them.But it is this small gap that is the key to determining the cooking skills of the two chefs.Because the gap is limited, the difference in points given by food judges is also relatively small.

Liu Hui lost about ten minutes to Cui Yuhao, pay attention to prove that Cui Yuhao's strength is extremely strong, and he is not at the same level as the former.

Huang Buhua thought to himself, even if he played, the end would not be too good, and he might be five or six points behind.

The few people present were all sensible people. After knowing the news, even Si Wu, who had always encouraged Yang Chen, looked a little depressed.Although I thought Yang Chen had a low chance of winning before, he might be able to make a big upset.Now that she has learned of Cui Yuhao's record, she has completely lost confidence in Yang Chen.

A smile appeared on Si Wu's face, and he said, "Why do you all have such heavy expressions? Now Yang Chen hasn't even started to compete with Cui Yuhao, whoever wins may lose."

"Yeah! Let's not think about this." Wang Huan also said.

Huang Buhua's expression slowed down a bit, and he changed the subject and asked, "Brother Yang, is your medicinal diet really effective? Can Xu Qingshan really make us this bamboo-leaf rice dumpling tomorrow?"

Yang Chen nodded affirmatively, "There shouldn't be a problem, I'll leave after tasting the bamboo leaf rice dumplings tomorrow."

Si Wu jokingly said: "Yang Chen, since you are so good at cooking medicinal food, you might as well become a doctor, what kind of chef should you be?"

Yang Chen said with a smile: "Actually, this medicinal diet is also a kind of food, and there is no rule that food cannot cure diseases. On the contrary, there are many sayings about diet therapy."

"Your statement is interesting." Si Wu said with great interest: "Then according to what you say, if everyone takes diet therapy, then the hospital will have to be closed?"

Yang Chen smiled, "I can't say for sure. There are many reasons why patients get sick, and there are many diseases that cannot be cured by diet alone. Moreover, the medicinal materials for making medicinal meals are not cheap, how can ordinary people afford them?"

A few people chatted for a while, and there was really nothing to do in the village, so they each took out their mobile phones and started playing.

In the early morning of the next day, Xu Guang ran to Yang Chen's room and knocked on his window, and shouted excitedly outside the door: "Brother Yang, Brother Yang, wake up!"

Xu Guang yelled loudly, and several people were woken up by him.

Seeing Xu Guang's agitated expression, Huang Buhua's face darkened, "Xu Guang, is there something wrong with your father's body? At that time we were..."

"It's not this!" Xu Guang spoke incoherently excitedly, "My dad... my dad can get out of bed and walk!"

"That's great?" Huang Buhua was extremely surprised.

Si Wu also looked surprised, "Yesterday I was lying on the bed and couldn't move, but today I can get out of bed and walk. I said, Yang Chen, what kind of magic medicine is this that works so well?"

Yang Chen's face remained unchanged, he had expected this result, and said softly: "Xu Guang, take us over to have a look."

When Xu Guang came to his house with a few people, Aya was supporting Xu Qingshan and walking carefully. Both of them looked excited and couldn't believe it.

"Benefactor, I can go, I can go!" Seeing Yang Chen, Xu Qingshan was about to throw him over with excitement, but because he just got out of bed, the injury has not been completely healed, but fortunately Aya helped him in time It didn't fall to the ground.

"Benefactor, thank you so much, if Qingshan keeps doing this, we mother and son really don't know what to do!" Xu Qingshan's wife Aya said in a crying voice, and she was about to kneel down.

Yang Chen hurriedly supported Aya, and firmly held her up to prevent him from kneeling down, "You don't have to be polite, this is just a little effort, it's nothing."

"A little effort?" Si Wu curled her lips when she heard this, "It can also be called a little effort to make a paralyzed patient walk again? You really are really good at pretending."

Huang Buhua retorted: "Those who are difficult will not, and those who meet are not difficult. This kind of thing is really unbelievable to us, but in Yang Chen's view, it might really be a matter of little effort."

Si Wu didn't argue about this matter, "I said Boss Huang, if this matter is revealed, will Yang Chen quickly become famous as a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine?"

Huang Buhua shook his head and smiled, "Of course not! Maybe he will be scolded and hyped up by others."

"That's true." Si Wu nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, without waiting for Yang Chen and the others to open their mouths, Xu Qingshan readily proposed to make bamboo leaf rice dumplings for them.After that, Xu Guang went to the forest to get some kind of relatively wide bamboo leaves, and several people helped prepare the raw materials.

The raw materials are very simple, and the same is the unique bamboo leaves called big-leaf bamboo.The bamboo leaves are about the same size as ordinary reed leaves, but they are a bit more slender. Yang Chen and the others carefully inspected the bamboo leaves, but they didn't find anything special.However, after the bamboo leaves are torn apart, a light green juice flows out, which has a very sweet taste.

The other is glutinous rice, the ordinary glutinous rice that grows in the ground, and there is nothing special about it, it is exactly the same as the glutinous rice sold in the market.

"Are there any other raw materials?"

Yang Chen couldn't help asking.It is really incredible that these two materials can make the bamboo leaf rice dumplings that Wang Huan admires so much.

Xu Qingshan said with a smile: "That's all. Although there are few materials, it is very important to control the heat. If the fire is too high or the cooking time is too long, the bamboo leaves of the big-leaf bamboo will be boiled; If it’s too small, it won’t be tasty or cooked well.”

Yang Chen naturally understood this truth.The most basic knowledge that almost every chef learns when he enters the industry is to control the heat, but this most basic ability, coupled with two seemingly ordinary raw materials, can really cook delicious bamboo leaves Zongzi.

Seeing that Yang Chen didn't believe it, Wang Huan said with a smile: "Brother Yang, he did this when I came last time. Don't worry, the taste will definitely satisfy you."

Because Xu Qingshan's health is still not very good, Yang Chen and the others helped to wash the rice and wash the bamboo leaves. According to Xu Qingshan's request last night, they put it in the pot and boiled it.Xu Qingshan carefully controlled the heat, sniffing the steam from time to time.

All procedures and steps are no different from those of ordinary people making zongzi.

If there is a difference, it is just that the reed leaves used to wrap the seeds have changed to the leaves of big-leaf bamboo.

After about half an hour, the steaming rice dumplings came out of the cage, and a hot air mixed with the fragrance of bamboo leaves escaped. The few people took a deep breath, and their mood was immediately relieved, because Cui Yuhao came to challenge. The depression was relieved immediately.

"Try how it tastes. I haven't made it for a year or two. The taste may be a bit bad." Xu Qingshan said shyly.

Regardless of the scalding, Wang Huan took the lead in peeling off a zongzi, only to see that the glutinous rice inside had been stained a faint green by the bamboo leaves.He took a bite without hesitation, and immediately closed his eyes with enjoyment, as if he had been intoxicated by the deliciousness of the bamboo-leaf rice dumplings.

"Is it so delicious?"

Yang Chen didn't believe it, he picked up a rice dumpling and peeled off the bamboo leaves, only to see that the grains of glutinous rice were extremely crystal clear, sticking together like a piece of special-shaped fine sapphire.

Bite lightly, a faint fragrance drifted from the tip of his nose, Yang Chen was stunned.

"This taste..."

After eating two more bites in a row, Yang Chen's brows became more and more wrinkled. At first glance, this zongzi tasted no different from ordinary zongzi, but when he tasted it carefully, it was somewhat different.

But what is the difference between them, Yang Chen couldn't grasp it in a daze.

Just as he was thinking, Yang Chen took a sip, but suddenly there was an astringent taste in his mouth, and before he knew it, he had already eaten all of a zongzi.

"Benefactor, how do you feel?" Xu Qingshan asked.

Yang Chen nodded first, then felt something was wrong, and shook his head again.

Xu Qingshan hurriedly asked: "Isn't it delicious? Is there something wrong with the rice dumplings I made?"

"No, no." Yang Chen hurriedly said, "Zongzi is very delicious. But if I really want to talk about it, I can't find out how delicious this zongzi is."

Xu Qingshan was taken aback, then suddenly laughed, "You are the first one to comment on my bamboo-leaf rice dumplings like this."
