God of Cookery Live Room

Chapter 226
The next day, when Dou Yitong came to Chen Er, he told him about it.

Shen Yinian also listened beside him.

I couldn't help expressing my opinion, "What does that person mean, that each dish must have strict requirements? Including how much salt to put, what temperature is the heat, and the serving size of each side dish?"

Dou Yitong nodded repeatedly.

Shen Yinian showed a puzzled expression, "At first glance, it seems to make sense..."

Dou Yitong asked Chen Er, "Is it really necessary to be so troublesome to select a Michelin star restaurant?"

Chen Er glanced at Dou Yitong, "Have you ever eaten at a Michelin restaurant?"

Dou Yitong shook his head.

Shen Yinian was very surprised, "Aren't you the rich second generation? How come you haven't been there?"

Dou Yitong explained, "Because there is no such thing in China, and I rarely go abroad. I have only been to island countries. There seem to be a few Michelin-starred restaurants in island countries, but I don't like Japanese food very much, so I didn't eat it."

Shen Yinian nodded.

But he didn't quite understand, "I think Japanese food is delicious, and I really like sushi!"

Especially with strong wasabi!
Dou Yitong still shook his head, "I think one of the amazing things about Japanese food is that different chefs make the same kind of sushi, but the taste is almost the same. I think it's so boring."

Dou Yitong felt that perhaps the only difference was the choice of ingredients.Or with different degrees of sophistication.

But there is not much difference in taste.

Chen Er picked up the topic just now, "The selection of Michelin restaurants is really troublesome."

Michelin was originally a tire company.

In 1900, the founder of Michelin published a food guide.

It is called the "Michelin Guide" to help passengers choose delicious restaurants during their journey.

Later, it gradually developed into a professional restaurant evaluation guide.

Michelin will evaluate the stars of the selected restaurants, the lowest one star, the highest three stars.

The selection of restaurants includes many aspects.

Michelin restaurants will send inspectors to secretly enter this restaurant for dinner.

Then evaluate the restaurant from the aspects of the restaurant's environment, food, service, and wine matching.

"Actually, Michelin restaurants used to use their own country's dining habits to evaluate the quality of a restaurant. Later, when they were rejected in other countries, they gradually chose to integrate the local dining culture and habits."

"Therefore, it is understandable that there are not many Chinese restaurants selected by Michelin. After all, different countries and regions have different eating habits and have different feelings about food."

Just like the same mapo tofu, the taste is definitely different in the south and the north.

Because eating habits are different.

It was only at this time that Dou Yitong suddenly realized, "Mr. Lin, is he so strict about the division of labor for food, is it just for the selection of Michelin?"

Chen Er nodded, "Maybe."

However, Chen Er felt that this process should be more difficult.

There are many cooking methods for Chinese food, and it is impossible to strictly control the heat of a certain dish, how much seasoning to put, and how many knives to cut.

Especially for stir-fried dishes, it is even more impossible to be as precise as western food.

The Chinese chef's grasp of the heat depends entirely on personal feeling and experience.

Even if it is the same restaurant, two different chefs cook the same dish, and the method will be slightly different.

These are different from Michelin's selection requirements.

For example, the representative food in Western food is French food.

French cuisine likes to pair dishes with wine.Therefore, in French cuisine, there are strict requirements on the ingredients of each dish.

When pairing a certain dish with a certain wine, you must strictly follow the requirements and will not make changes easily.

In Western food, it is even required that the ingredients of a certain dish must come from a certain place of origin and how much it weighs.

The cuisine of the island country is deeply influenced by Western food, so it also has strict requirements on the ingredients, even the place of origin.

But most Chinese food does not have such requirements.

Therefore, in a sense, the cuisine of island countries is more popular than Chinese food in the world.

Chen Er remembers the several Michelin-starred Chinese restaurants in the SAR, which are fusion of Western food.

It is very close to Western food in terms of food handling and presentation.

This approach, in a sense, is also an innovation.

Shen Yinian was sorting out the guest list at the side.

Suddenly he said in surprise, "What a coincidence, today's guest is also named Lin!"

Dou Yitong hastily leaned over to have a look.

I saw it said, Lin Shaofeng.

"No!"

"It's actually the same person!"

Dou Yitong's mind suddenly opened.

He looked at Chen Erdao, "Master, I really doubt whether this person came to ask you to kick the hall..."

Chen Er glanced at him, "What are you thinking, at most he wants to come and lure me into the gang."

Dou Yitong and Shen Yinian called out at the same time.

"Nani?!"

Chen Er did not guess wrong this time.

Lin Shaofeng returned to Huaxia with the mentality of wanting to recruit Chen Er into his gang.

Lin Shaofeng was very happy to be able to eat the dishes made by Chen Er today.

His assistant Xiao Zhou sorted out some address information suitable for opening a restaurant.

While sorting out the information, he looked up at Lin Shaofeng.

"Mr. Lin, I don't understand why I have to come back when I can promote Chinese food in the United States."

Lin Shaofeng froze for a moment, then remembered a person he met when he opened a restaurant in the United States.

The man said that Chinese food was greasy and spicy, and it tasted very unhealthy.

Huaxia doesn't even have a Michelin star restaurant, so it has no right to say that its food is delicious.

"When Huaxia can have its own Michelin restaurant, it can truly be regarded as going international."

Xiao Zhou was a little discouraged, "But, Young Master Lin, you have also opened a restaurant in the United States, and you know what the selection criteria of Michelin are. They simply cannot accept our set..."

Lin Shaofeng straightened his back, "So, I am changing, and now I have a new idea."

He watched Chen Er's show.

With Chen Er's current influence in China, the first stop of Michelin's entry in China must be his restaurant.

As long as he cooperates with Chen Er, it will be a matter of time before he wins the Michelin restaurant.

Xiao Zhou didn't understand why Lin Shaofeng did this.

"Young Master Lin, aren't you making wedding dresses for others?"

Lin Shaofeng thought it didn't matter, "As long as China has its own Michelin restaurant, then what does it matter who owns this restaurant?"

Xiao Zhou wanted to say something, but Lin Shaofeng had already strode away.

In the restaurant, Dou Yitong and Shen Yinian were still chattering about the script about Chen Er and Lin Shaofeng.

Chen Er has already started to roll up his sleeves.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

Chen Er looked at the chattering Dou Yitong.

Dou Yitong glanced at the muscles on Chen Er's arm, and immediately shut up.

"I didn't open until noon, it's still early..."

Chen Er waved his hand and said, "Then go to the kitchen and cook some sweet-scented osmanthus sauce."

Dou Yitong said with a smile, "Excellent!"

Then hurriedly walked towards the kitchen, Chen Er's voice came from behind him.

"Put less salt."

　PS: There have been Michelin restaurants in mainland China since 16, but the world in the novel is different, and it is assumed that there are no Michelin restaurants for the time being.
