Chinese chef

60 vegetarian dishes

By the time Mu Feng stir-fried the third pot of dishes, he had already mastered the most suitable method for this 【Braised Winter Melon】.

Immediately, he told Jiming what he did.

Jiming immediately started cooking according to the method Mu Feng said.

Although he is not very familiar with it, but under Mu Feng's hands-on teaching, after two pots of cooking, he has basically mastered the method.

Mu Feng and Jiming fried [Braised Winter Melon] for 120 people.

Jiming got excited and wanted to continue, but was blocked by others.

"Senior brother, I will make too much later, if I can't eat it, it will be a waste!" Someone said.

The other monks immediately followed suit.

Only then did Jiming helplessly put down the spatula in his hand.

The monks in the back kitchen began to send all the food to the front dining hall.

Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng also followed to help.

At noon today, the Zhaitang has a total of four dishes and one soup, which are [Stir-fried Tofu], [Stir-fried Radish], [Braised Eggplant], [Tofu Soup], and the one made by Mu Feng and Jiming together Dao 【Braised Winter Melon】.

After the food was delivered to the Zhaitang, Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng went to the front of the Zhaitang to look for Grandpa Su and Grandma Su.

"Grandpa and grandma, you can go in for dinner." As soon as Mu Feng came out of the entrance of the dining hall, he saw the figures of the two old men and ran over quickly.

"Where did you two go just now? I just wanted to call you! When did you enter the Zhaitang, why didn't I see it?" Grandpa Su asked suspiciously.

"I'm going to help with the cooking." Mu Feng said with a smile.

"Oh, that's a good thing! Hehehe~" Grandpa Su said with a smile.

"Come on, grandpa and grandma, let's go in." Mu Feng said.

Then, Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng each supported an old man and walked into the dining hall.

"Mu Feng, Nan Cheng, after you enter, try not to talk. If you have to speak, you must keep your voice down. The rule of the Zhaitang is not to speak. If you want to add more food, you only need to put the empty rice bowl on the table By the side, there will naturally be little masters who will come forward to help. Also, the sound of eating should not be too loud, eat slowly, you know? Also, the food must be eaten clean, even the vegetable juice must be drunk." Su Grandpa explained carefully.

"Understood, Grandpa." Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng nodded.

After entering the dining hall, it really was a quiet scene. When Mu Feng arranged the meals just now, there was no one else in the dining hall, so he didn't feel much.

However, there are at least a hundred people sitting in the Zhaitang now, but it is still a quiet scene, which is a bit shocking.

In such an environment, anyone who is in awe will unconsciously quiet down, for fear of destroying the quiet atmosphere and affecting other people's meals.

Mu Feng and his party found a place to sit down, and soon several monks came over with meals, each with a bowl of rice, a bowl of vegetables, and a bowl of soup.

Although it is four dishes and one soup, the four dishes are all put in one bowl, and they are not served separately.

The monk who delivered the food recognized Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng, and when he came in front of them, he nodded slightly to them and smiled.

After the food was ready, Mu Feng and his party began to eat.

Although there are [braised winter melon] in the four dishes, but all the dishes are mixed together, which still makes the taste of the winter melon much worse.

However, even so, Mu Feng still noticed that many people's eyes were obviously different when they ate [Braised Winter Melon].

Looking at them, they seem to have doubts about the dishes in front of them, and they look a little unbelievable.

Soon, someone ate all the dishes.

Then, put the bowl on the table.

The little master who was waiting on the side immediately brought the food over.

"Little master, can I just want winter melon?" the man asked in a low voice.

"The food is distributed equally. If you only want winter melon, what will the others do?" The little master replied.

"Can I have more wax gourd?" the man asked again.

"...Yes." The little master looked at the quantity of the pot of [Braised Winter Melon] on the table not far away, and nodded.

"Thank you." The man thanked quickly.

Then, one after another, people asked the little master for winter melons. At first, the little master saw that there were a lot of winter melons, so he agreed.

After a while, he suddenly found that as everyone gave more, before he knew it, the pot of wax gourd was actually less than other vegetables.

At this time, he discovered that not only the believers in the area he was in charge of wanted winter melons, but also the believers in charge of other monks wanted winter melons.

The needs of so many people came together, and the number of winter melons began to decrease rapidly.

Seeing that this was not going to work, the little master had no choice but to discuss it with other monks.

In the end, it was decided that all dishes will be distributed uniformly according to the original regulations.If anyone wants to add dishes, they must add a little of all four dishes.

Only in this way, food will not be wasted.

Even so, some people are willing to eat other dishes of the same amount in order to eat winter melon.

Because of the strict rules of the Zhaitang, everyone ate much faster than usual.

Within five or six minutes, people began to leave the Zhaitang one after another.

In fact, if it weren't for this 【Braised Winter Melon】to whet everyone's appetite today, everyone would eat faster.

After all, when a person can't speak, can't play mobile phone and watch TV, and can only concentrate on eating, the speed can't be slowed down even if he wants to.

Mu Feng and his party also finished their meal, put away the tableware and cleaned it, and walked out of the dining hall.

As soon as he left the dining hall, Mu Feng heard someone discussing how the food tasted just now.

At a glance, several young people were discussing.

"The wax gourd just now is not bad! I didn't expect that vegetarian dishes can be so delicious!"

"That's right, the little master just gave me a little more, but unfortunately it's still not enough."

"I came with my mother. I originally wanted to save my stomach and go home to eat meat, but my mother dragged me in. I didn't expect it to be good. But it's a pity that only winter melon is delicious."

......

To be honest, this [Braised Winter Melon] mixed with the other three dishes is far from qualified according to Mu Feng's own standards.

He didn't expect so many people to like to eat it.

Maybe everyone's expectations are not high, and the comparison between winter melon and other dishes is too obvious!

The group walked slowly, and Mu Feng suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Master Ci Yuan just now, so he asked Grandpa Su: "By the way, Grandpa Su, why didn't we see Master Ci Yuan just now?"

"You know Master Ci Yuan?" Grandpa Su looked at him in surprise.

"I met you in the back kitchen just now." Mu Feng said.

"Master Ciyuan doesn't eat after lunch, so he should be in the Buddhist hall right now!" Grandpa Su said.

Mu Feng nodded.

At this moment, Mu Feng suddenly heard someone calling his name, stopped in his tracks, and looked back.

I saw Shen Songtao walking towards him from a distance, followed by several people.

"Mu Feng, you made the braised winter melon just now, right?" Shen Songtao said after approaching.

"Master Jiming and I made it together." Mu Feng said with a smile.

"My first guess is, haha, the wax gourd is bright red in color, and it tastes salty and soft when bitten into it. Compared with the other three dishes, it's this one!" Shen Songtao smiled and compared his thumbs.

Several people around Shen Songtao also echoed.

After leaving the Zhaitang, the big guys don't have so many scruples about speaking.

"By the way, old man Shen, these are my grandparents." Mu Feng smiled and introduced the two old people, Grandpa Su and Grandma Su, to Shen Songtao.

"Hello, hello." Shen Songtao hurriedly greeted the two old people with a smile.

"Hello." The two old people replied with a smile.

Why does this person look so familiar?

Grandpa Su thought to himself.

"Mu Feng, do you have anything to do this afternoon?" Shen Songtao said.

"No more, I'll be back in a while." Mu Feng said.

"Mu Feng, let's find a place to sit down! I have something to talk to you about." Shen Songtao said with a smile.

Before Mu Feng could answer, Grandpa Su suddenly said, "You are Shen Songtao, King of Emeralds!"

After hearing Grandpa Su's words, Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng were stunned. They first looked at Grandpa Su, and then at Shen Songtao together. After looking at it for a while, they all showed expressions of sudden realization.

I said why the name Shen Songtao sounds so familiar to me!

The two thought to themselves.

Immediately, memories began to emerge in my mind.

That was five or six years ago. At that time, Fengze Daily made a series of reports introducing top figures from all walks of life in Fengze City.

One issue published Shen Songtao's photos and deeds.

Shen Songtao was very lucky in gambling in his early years, and he could cut the price every time he gambled on stones, and soon became a well-known king of stone betting.

Later, several large jewelry stores were opened in Fortress.

Mingcuixuan Jewelry and Jade Store has a long-standing reputation in Fengze City.

However, Shen Songtao only did the interview for that period, and never accepted an interview again, so Mu Feng and the others thought it was very familiar, but they couldn't remember it.

To be honest, Mu Feng and Shi Nancheng might not have remembered the name Shen Songtao if the report at the time hadn't used the eye-catching title "Shen Songtao-The Stone Gambler Who Gambled [-] Million Sky-high Imperial Green Jade".

Grandpa Su naturally wouldn't remember Shen Songtao's appearance.

The main reason is that the words [gambling stone] and [[-] million] are so impressive that they are inadvertently imprinted in my mind.

Seeing Mu Feng and the others looking at him, Shen Songtao immediately waved his hands and said with a smile, "What kind of jadeite king? I'm just an ordinary jadeite seller."

"Ming Cui Xuan is very famous in Fengze!" Mu Feng joked.

"The main reason is that I spent a lot of money on advertising." Shen Songtao laughed at himself.

Mu Feng smiled and didn't continue to tease.

After a pause, he asked, "By the way, Old Man Shen, did you just say you wanted to talk to me?"

Seeing that Mu Feng brought the topic back so quickly, Shen Songtao had a better impression of Mu Feng in his heart.

On weekdays, anyone who is not familiar with him will inevitably compliment him when he first learns his identity.

Especially when young people face him, they always unconsciously bring a sense of caution or compliment.

Few people are like Mu Feng, after knowing his true identity, he remains calm as usual.

After listening to Mu Feng's words, Shen Songtao smiled and said: "That's right, my son has foreign friends coming to Fengze in a few days, I was wondering if I could invite you to my house to be the chef."

"To your house?" Mu Feng scratched his forehead, "Can't Zhonghua Building work?"

"It's like this. I mainly think that Zhonghua Building is still noisy after all, and it's quieter at home, which is suitable for talking about things." Shen Songtao said with a smile.

At this moment, Shi Nancheng's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he leaned closer to answer the question: "Uncle Shen, if there is a quiet and secret place, and it's inside the Zhonghua Building, what do you think?"

"Inside the Zhonghua Building?" Shen Songtao was taken aback.

"Yes, it's inside the Zhonghua Building. It's guaranteed to be very secret and no one will disturb you!" Shi Nancheng said.

"By the way, you...you are the young man who stood with Mu Feng in Zhonghua Building yesterday, right?" Shen Songtao said.

"Yes, it's me. My name is Shi Nancheng, and I'm the general manager of Zhonghua Building." Shi Nancheng said with a smile.

"Shi Nancheng? Shi Chunxin is you...?" Shen Songtao asked.

"It's my dad." Shi Nancheng said with a smile.

"Oh, so it's the owner of Zhonghua Building." Shen Songtao smiled and nodded, "What did you mean just now?"

"That's how it is. We have VIP boxes on the top floor of the Zhonghua Building. You must have heard of it?" Shi Nancheng asked.

Shen Songtao was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he had heard about it before. It seemed that there were VIP boxes on the top floor of the Zhonghua Building, and there was an elevator directly to the underground parking lot. Access control cards were required to go up, and the privacy was very good. It is the first choice for many celebrities and dignitaries to eat.

It's just that the Zhonghua Building has been in decline for more than ten years, and no one has mentioned the so-called VIP boxes for a long time.

Although Shen Songtao was rich more than ten years ago, he was not that kind of top person, so naturally he had never been to this so-called VIP floor.

Shen Songtao really became rich, in fact, in the three or four years after the downfall of Zhonghua Building, it was because of the jadeite rough worth more than [-] million that he was truly called a billionaire.

But when it comes to the current status and wealth of the Shen family, they are no longer the same.

Shen Songtao's son, Shen Yaoguang, after his father offered [-] million sky-high jadeites, used rough stones as collateral for loans and invested in real estate. Real estate kingdom.

However, ordinary people don't know the relationship between Jade King Shen Songtao and Fengze City real estate tycoon Shen Yaoguang.

Shen Yaoguang is very low-key, except for investing in real estate, there is no gossip in his private life.

Shen Songtao still had a report, but Shen Yaoguang didn't even have a personal report.

Therefore, the Le Cuiyuan Real Estate Company of the Shen family is well-known in Fengze City, but Shen Yaoguang only has a few very simple random photos.

Later, Mu Feng also found out when Shen Songtao and his son brought foreign guests to the Zhonghua Building for dinner.

----

After thinking for a while, Shen Songtao nodded, "I've heard of the boxes on the top floor of the Zhonghua Building."

"Cooking in Zhonghua Building, I feel more comfortable, and this dish will be more delicious. Moreover, the back kitchen of Zhonghua Building is equipped with all kinds of equipment, so cooking will be much more convenient." Mu Feng immediately assisted, smiling Said.

He had heard Shi Nancheng mention this top-floor box before, but now that he saw what Shi Nancheng said, he guessed what Shi Nancheng was thinking.

"Uncle Shen, don't worry, you will never be disturbed by outsiders when you eat in the box on the top floor! If you think it's okay, then let's set a date, and I will let the people below prepare in advance, and I will definitely provide you with the best food when the time comes." service!" Shi Nancheng said.

"Okay, then ten days later! Is it possible?" Shen Songtao thought for a while and said.

"No problem!" Shi Nancheng said with a smile.

The box on the top floor of the Zhonghua Building has been abandoned for too long, and Shi Nancheng has always wanted to revive it, but he couldn't even handle it with the chef, let alone this box on the top floor.

Now is a good time to take this opportunity to slowly bring the top-floor box into everyone's sight.

"Okay, then it's settled!" Shen Songtao said with a smile, "Then Mu Feng, I have something to go back first, do you want to take you along?"

"No need, we have a car." Mu Feng said with a smile.

"Okay, that's it for now. Let's go first." Shen Songtao said with a smile.

After Shen Songtao left, Mu Feng and his group walked around for a while, and felt that they had almost digested it, so they were ready to go back to Fengze.

As a result, when they arrived at the parking lot, they found Jiming waiting for them.

"Mu Feng, you're here. I've been waiting for you for a long time." When Jiming saw Mu Feng, he immediately ran over.

"Um, Master Jiming, why are you here? What do you want from me?" Mu Feng asked.

"I forgot to leave your phone number just now. After I finished packing, I couldn't find you when I came out of the Zhaitang. So I went directly to this parking lot to wait for you." Jiming said.

"Oh!" Mu Feng smiled, "Then let's add a WeChat account!"

"Okay." Jimin nodded.

Then, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

"Master Jiming, do you often play with your mobile phones?" Shi Nancheng asked, remembering all the rumors he had read on the Internet.

"Basically I don't play games. I only have snakes in my phone. Our master will give us lectures every day, and he will also tell us about the various disadvantages of mobile phones. My master said, just use the mobile phone to talk, and other things The function must be used with caution, otherwise you will become addicted, which is not good for your practice." Jiming said.

Shi Nancheng smiled and nodded.

"Come on, let me scan it." Mu Feng said to Jiming.

The two immediately became friends with each other.

"Mu Feng, can I learn how to cook from you in the future?" Jiming said with a embarrassed smile.

He could clearly feel everyone's love for the dish [Braised Winter Melon] in the Zhaitang just now, which strengthened his idea of ​​making vegetarian dishes delicious.

"Yes. However, I may not be able to come here often." Mu Feng said with a smile.

"It's okay, I can go find you." Jiming said with a smile.

"Can you go down the mountain?" Mu Feng asked.

"Of course, as long as you ask the master for leave, you can tell where you are going. Generally, as long as it is a serious matter, the master will agree." Jiming said with a smile.

"Okay, then come to me when you are free, and I will teach you how to cook." Mu Feng said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you!" Jiming said.

"You're welcome, let's go then!" Mu Feng said.

"Goodbye, drive down the mountain more slowly!" Jiming waved goodbye.

----

The Shen family's car was on the way back to Fengze.

Shen Songtao was sitting in the back seat, next to an old man his age.

"Old Shen, is that young man just now the chef of Zhonghua Building?" the old man asked.

"Yeah, how is it? Don't you think it's not quite the same? Hehehe~" Shen Songtao said with a smile, "When I saw him yesterday, I couldn't believe that the chef of the Zhonghua Building is so young. Are you I don’t know, the shacha chicken and lychee chicken balls he made taste really... endless aftertaste!" Shen Songtao said with emotion.

"Looking at you like this, it makes me want to go." The old man said with a smile.

"Before I knew it, Shi Chunxin from Zhonghualou had been there for more than ten years. Shi Chunxin was really a prominent figure in Fengze City back then! This Zhonghualou was also a top restaurant back then. Unfortunately, world affairs Impermanence." Shen Songtao sighed.

Speaking of Shi Chunxin, he couldn't help but feel emotional. Although he and Shi Chunxin were not old acquaintances, Shi Chunxin was a well-known legend in Fengze City back then.

Just sigh that fate is impermanent.

Shen Songtao shook his head.

When people get older, they will always involuntarily sigh with emotion about life.

"Another day, let's go to Zhonghua Building for dinner!" said the old man just now.

"Okay! Hahaha." Shen Songtao said with a smile, and after a pause, he asked, "Lao Yu, how is your son's vegetarian restaurant doing? It's been so long and you haven't asked me to eat."

"Hey, at the beginning, the business was not very good." Lao Yu shook his head and said.

"It's okay, take your time!" Shen Songtao said with a smile.

"By the way, the winter melon dish just now was well done. Tell me, if the chef of my son's vegetarian restaurant is to learn how to cook vegetarian dishes from Master Mu, I don't know if Master Mu will be willing to teach you." Lao Yu said suddenly.

"I don't know about that." Shen Songtao said with a smile, "I only met him yesterday."

"Hey, you also know that I have always been a son, my son, hey..." Lao Yu said with a sigh.

Shen Songtao patted his hands: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings."

----

After Mu Feng and his party left Wuquan Temple, they went down the mountain along the original road.

"Huh..." Shi Nancheng drove the car on the mountain road, his eyes were fixed on the road, he stepped on the brake lightly, then released, stepped on, and released...

On weekdays, he feels that the off-road vehicle has a high chassis and feels good to drive.However, now I suddenly feel that the chassis of this off-road vehicle is too high, and there is always a feeling of lightness.

The off-road vehicle slid all the way down the mountain, without any need to increase the accelerator, and I was afraid that it would not be able to stop even if I just stepped on the brakes. The slope is too steep!

After finally going down the mountain, Shi Nancheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's more exciting than riding a roller coaster, hehe." Shi Nancheng said with a smile. Although he was nervous, he was also very excited.

It was because of the suffering of the two old people that when they went down the mountain, they dared not open their eyes.

"Grandpa and grandma, let's come down." Mu Feng said.

The two old men opened their eyes cautiously.

"It's better to walk next time!" Grandma Su said with fear.

It doesn't feel like going up the mountain, but going down the mountain is too exciting!

"Hehe~" Shi Nancheng laughed twice, "Then let's go back!"

----

The next morning, Mu Feng came to Su Ji early.

He is going to open a new treasure chest and prepare for Shen Songtao's banquet in ten days' time!
