Heavenly Gourmet

"Okay, now all the ingredients have been prepared, and the next step is to make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

After processing all these ingredients at once, Lin Hai was a little exhausted, so he sat on the bench and rested for a while.

Because it takes some time to steam these ingredients, at least two hours.

"It only took you about 40 minutes to prepare all these ingredients. That's amazing. You deserve to be the champion of the Young Chef Competition."

Song Shu gave Lin Hai a thumbs up. He originally thought that it was a bit unrealistic for Lin Hai to become the champion of the Youth Chef Competition at such a young age.

But now it seems that the other party is an absolute master whether it is cooking or processing ingredients.

"Nothing special, just practice makes perfect."

Lin Hai shook his head and said to Song Shu with a smile.

"Would you like to have some tea and let it steam?"

Song Shu invited.

"These ingredients are extremely precious. I have to watch over the fire for two hours. If they get burnt, it will be a waste."

Lin Hai shook his head. To be honest, he didn't really want to have anything to do with Song Shu. If the other party had not refused to sell these ingredients to him, he would not have been able to do this here.

"Yeah, I'll go with you then."

Song Shu nodded.

The two chatted while waiting, but as the conversation deepened, Lin Hai gradually became interested in Song Shu.

This person is not as vicious as he looks. Instead, he often helps poor families.

However, Song Shu also has a not-so-good side, which is that he controls the entire high-end food industry.

"why?"

At this point, Lin Hai didn’t quite understand.

"What else could it be for? Ordinary people can't even afford these things, right?"

Song Dynasty calligraphy.

“That’s true.”

Lin Hai thought about it and nodded.

"So, these ingredients can only be eaten by rich people. Which of those big bosses is clean? So I didn't control those daily household vegetables, but all the high-end ingredients. Then I used part of the money I earned to operate this cold storage, and half of the money was used for donations. This is why no inspector came to take over this cold storage. They want face, but I don't need it. So, you should understand, right?"

Song Shu described it as a light breeze and cloudless.

Lin Hai glanced at Song Shu, and after a while he said, "You are quite a nice person."

"Two hours, almost."

Song Shu didn't discuss this issue too much. He raised his hand and looked at his watch and said.

Lin Hai immediately stopped talking and turned around to continue making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

After taking out various ingredients from the steamer and pouring out the soup, Lin Hai took out a few bamboo shoots, blanched them briefly in boiling water, and then cut each one into four pieces and flattened them gently with a knife.

After finishing all these, it is time to actually start making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Lin Hai turned on the stove, and after the pot was hot, he poured some cooked lard into it.

After feeling the temperature of the oil, Lin Hai put the pigeon eggs and winter bamboo shoots into the pot.

boom!

When the hot oil met these two ingredients, a sizzling sound immediately came out.

A fragrance also burst out instantly at this moment.

This aroma is a mixture of the flavors of various ingredients, but it presents a perfect harmony.

It doesn't make people feel confused.

Keeping the old oil, Lin Hai threw the already cooked fish lips and fish belly into the pot.

Soon, the whole pot was filled with fragrance again.

The fish lips and belly also became extremely soft, and it seemed that with just a slight bite, they would turn directly into rich soup.

Lin Hai took out the two ingredients and heated up the oil which was infused with fragrance again. He then added onion segments and ginger slices. After a while, the flavors of the two seasonings were fried out.

After smelling the fragrance, Lin Hai threw in the processed chicken, duck, lamb elbows, pig trotter tips, duck gizzards, pork tripe pieces, etc.

After simply stir-frying it for a few times, he smoothly took out the soy sauce, MSG, rock sugar, shochu bone broth and other seasonings and threw them in.

Such smooth flow of words once again dazzled Song Shu who was standing by.

Isn't this guy's first time doing this?

How come it's like it's the same thing you've done dozens or hundreds of times?

Most old craftsmen don’t have such a knack for doing it, right?

"Brother, are you sure this is your first time making this dish?"

Song Shu couldn't help but wonder in his heart and asked.

“This is really the first time I’ve made this dish, no lie.”

Lin Hai didn't know how to explain to Song Shu, so he spoke quickly.

Now the Gourmet Divine Codex has been deeply engraved in Lin Hai's mind. The reason why he can do it so smoothly is that these steps have been engraved in his instincts.

It didn't take long for the ingredients and bone broth in the pot to begin boiling, and the flavors of the auxiliary ingredients had already penetrated deeply into the ingredients.

Lin Hai threw away all the green onion slices and other irrelevant seasonings, put the ingredients into a basin, and kept the broth for making the soup base later.

"Is there a jar?"

Lin Hai looked at the ingredients, turned around and asked Song Shu next to him.

"Yes, I'll get it."

Song Shu hurried towards a room and took out a brown jar.

Lin Hai washed the wine jar, then added a pound of water into it and placed it on the stove. After heating it, he poured out the water, took out a bamboo grate that just fit the jar, and placed the various cooked ingredients on it.

But for things like shark fins, ham slices, scallops, and abalone slices, he would wrap them carefully with gauze before putting them in.

After doing all this, Lin Hai picked up the soup that was cooked earlier and poured it carefully into the bowl. Finally, he took a lotus leaf and gently spread it over the bowl, pressing it down with a small bowl.

“It’s finally done.”

Lin Hai stretched lazily. The production process of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was the most complicated he had made so far.

If it weren't for the help of the Gourmet Divine Book, it would be difficult for him to do this well.

I have to say that Guanyin Bodhisattva is Guanyin Bodhisattva.

The food is so particular.

“Where are the ingredients?”

Song Shu looked at the sea cucumbers, tendons, fish lips and fish stomachs left in the basin and asked hurriedly.

"These need to be put in later. They will ripen easily. If you put them in now, it will ruin the taste."

Lin Hai explained: "Now we just have to wait for these ingredients to be simmered over low heat."

"Would you like to sit for a while?"

Song Shu asked, as if Lin Hai was now his big brother.

In fact, it is no wonder that Yu Songshu said this. Lin Hai’s actions just now have conquered the former.

"That's fine. We don't need to light the fire now. Wait two hours and the soup will be ready."

Lin Hai exhaled, as if to spit out all the fatigue of the day.

At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva sent another WeChat message: "Daoist friend Lin Hai, is my dish not ready yet?"

Lin Hai took out his phone and replied, "It's almost done. These ingredients are all high-end ingredients. It took a lot of effort to find them. But, I finally found them."

Guanyin Bodhisattva quickly replied: "Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist Lin Hai!"

Lin Hai and Song Shu walked into a tea room. The tea room was antique and Lin Hai's eyes lit up when he entered.

"You did a really good job on this ice storage."

Lin Hai praised Song Shu.

"No, actually this place is my home. I can't spend all the money I earn on doing good deeds, right? At least I have to keep some for myself."

Song Shu smiled slightly, and the two sat down. The former poured Lin Hai a cup of tea.

"I'm a little curious, why do you do this?"

Lin Hai took a sip of tea and asked curiously.

"I used to be a chef. Although I wasn't very famous, I was still well-known. Unfortunately, I was framed and forced to leave the hotel. I didn't know what to do. It just so happened that the government wanted to transfer the ice storage, so I took it over."

Song Shu said.

"I see."

Lin Hai understood, and couldn't help but admire Song Shu.

After two hours, Lin Hai stood up and went to the kitchen to check the fire. At this time, the smell coming from the kitchen was already extremely fragrant.

"Oh my god, this fragrance is too stimulating, isn't it?"

After taking a deep sniff of the fragrance, Song Shu suddenly felt his spirits become very high.

"It's done."

Lin Hai smiled, put on gloves, opened the lid, put the remaining ingredients in, sealed the jar, and continued to simmer.

The cooking method of simmering requires the use of low heat to fully release the flavor of the ingredients. Only this cooking method can make a perfect Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

"Next, just wait. You can eat in another hour."

Lin Hai looked at Song Shu and said.

"Great! I never thought that one day I would be able to taste the authentic Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

Song Shu's eyes lit up. The aroma alone made him want to devour it.
