Chapter 583 Failed Boiled Cabbage

As time passed, dishes were served on the table one after another.Each dish has a different story, and each dish is one of the most important moments in Mr. Jiang's life.

Every time Ren Pengcheng serves a dish, he will tell a story.Jiang Yang listened intently, as if he had seen a chef's life.

There are many dishes, but unfortunately none of them are the boiled cabbage that Jiang Yang expected.

Finally, before the dish was served, Jiang Yang smelled a familiar smell.That mellow aroma is exactly the smell that Jiang Yang is very familiar with - the aroma of boiled cabbage!

Jiang Yang couldn't help but his eyes brightened. The dish he had been waiting for for a long time was finally coming.

The boiled cabbage is served in a cup, and each person has a small cup.The cup is white with a picture of fish playing with lotus flowers on it.

"Jiang Lao... the dish at his peak, boiled cabbage can be said to be the most proud dish of Jiang Lao's life. At that time, with this dish, many dignitaries rushed to taste it. Someone once said that if you can taste a cup of Jiang Lao The boiled cabbage in the water is not in vain! After many years, I can finally taste this dish again." This time, it was not Ren Pengcheng who spoke again, but another person at the table sighing.

This is an old man. Although he doesn't know his exact age, his tone should be younger than Jiang's.

Jiang Yang knew that Jiang Lao's boiled cabbage was very good, but he didn't know how good it was.He has never experienced that era, so he doesn't know the influence of Jiang Lao's boiled cabbage at that time.

"Yeah, how many years... the scene at that time seems to be still in front of our eyes." Another old man at the same table sighed.

"Thousands of mountains and rivers can't stop it, and the road to Shu will be difficult. These two sentences are perfectly suitable to describe the scene at that time." Another old man went on to say.

They have all experienced that era, and now seeing the dishes of that era again, they can't help feeling a little nostalgic.

"Boiled cabbage from Sichuan, boiled cabbage from Guangdong, crispy fried chicken in Beijing, Buddha jumps over the wall in southern Fujian! Today, only Mr. Jiang, who cooks boiled cabbage from Sichuan, is still alive. Unfortunately, he is also old and frail, and has not cooked boiled cabbage for many years. That The light of the times is blooming again today, maybe after today, that era will be completely over." They said, with a hint of sadness in their tone.

In their eyes, this dish represents an era, that glorious era.Jiang Lao is the legacy of that era, and also the last light of that era.

Several people each sighed for a while, and then prepared to taste.

Jiang Yang lifted the lid of the cup, and a strong fresh fragrance came to his nostrils. In an instant, the whole nasal cavity was filled with this smell.

This smell is both familiar and unfamiliar to Jiang Yangli. What is familiar is that this smell is very similar to the aroma of boiled cabbage that he cooks on weekdays; what is strange is that there is something different in this aroma.

In terms of aroma, the boiled cabbage cooked by Jiang Lao has a stronger aroma and more impact.

People can't help but want to drool when they smell it. The kind of impact is far inferior to the boiled cabbage cooked by Jiang Yang.

Looking at the color of the soup, the boiled cabbage cooked by Mr. Jiang is clear and clear without any magazines.The soup has a slight brown color, just like a good oolong tea, slightly yellowish but clear and bright.

In the middle is a cabbage, which has no extra carvings and basically retains the most original shape of the cabbage.The cabbage lay quietly in the soup, its color was bright, and there was no feeling of yellowing, as if it was a living cabbage that had not been cooked.

Although it has never been carved, the cabbage and the brown broth still look very good.

When tasting boiled cabbage, you must take a sip of the soup first, so that the soup carefully hoisted with various ingredients fills your entire mouth.Then take a bite of the cabbage to taste how the soup blends with the cabbage.

Jiang Yang scooped up some soup with a spoon and put it into his mouth. As soon as the brown soup entered his mouth, there was a fresh and mellow taste.

The freshness of the chicken, the fragrance of the duck, the beauty of the ham, the richness of the elbow, the flavors of several ingredients are mixed together to form the unique and charming taste of this boiled cabbage.

Try the cabbage again, there is no peculiar smell, only the fragrance of cabbage and the thick soup.The cabbage was handled very well, the tendons outside the cabbage were torn off, and it didn't taste like a bite at all.

After the high temperature of the steam, the taste in the soup has completely integrated into the cabbage, and the cabbage has absorbed enough soup flavor.The special cooking technique makes this extremely ordinary ingredient taste extraordinary at all.

After Jiang Yang tasted it, he sighed secretly. The boiled cabbage cooked by himself was far inferior.Even if Mr. Jiang taught it himself, the gap is still obvious.

Jiang Yang could tell that there was nothing special about this boiled cabbage dish, all the seasoning ingredients used were those.The reason why there is such a big gap is actually because the chefs have different skills.

This tasting of boiled cabbage gave Jiang Yang a deeper understanding of this dish.how to say?In the past, Jiang Yang had never tasted the real peak boiled cabbage. Even though someone described it, he didn't have a clear understanding of what taste was good.Now he knows what boiled cabbage tastes like at the peak, and he knows how to work hard only after experiencing the peak.

Of course, Jiang Yang will not follow Jiang Lao's path, he already has his own path, and will not follow someone else's path.If it had been earlier, maybe Jiang Yang would have followed Jiang Lao's example and tried to make the same boiled cabbage as this boiled cabbage.Now, Jiangyang will learn from it and integrate good places into his own path to make his path broader.

However, to Jiang Yang's pity, he didn't taste the emotion in this dish.That said, this dish is not exactly a master dish.

This made Jiang Yang feel strange. Boiled cabbage of this level cannot be said to be unpalatable, but it is seriously inconsistent with the rumors!
The others at the table had obviously tasted it too, with a look of regret on their faces.

"pity……"

"It's no longer the taste of the past."

"After all... still no match for time."

Several people sighed one after another, with deep regret in their eyes.Originally, I thought I could experience the scenery of that era again, but who would have thought that it was just a memory.

………………

in the kitchen.

"Master!" Yu Qiquan hurriedly stepped forward to support Mr. Jiang.

Mr. Jiang waved his hand and said, "I'm fine."

However, his face was extremely pale.

"Master, why don't you rest, you've already cooked so many dishes." Yu Qiquan persuaded.

Mr. Jiang sighed and said, "After all, it failed. I'm fine, just the last dish, I'll finish cooking it."

Yu Qiquan opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything to stop him.

"Master, you have done a good job." Yu Qiquan comforted, although the comfort seemed so feeble.

Mr. Jiang smiled: "It's not a master dish, how can you say it's good? But I've tried my best, time doesn't forgive me!"

After speaking, Mr. Jiang started cooking the last dish again.
