Chapter 218 Master Wang, I don’t accept you!
The moment they put it in their mouths, neither of them cared whether there was pepper in it or not. Nothing else mattered because the braised pork made by Chef Wang was so delicious.
Not fat or greasy, melts in your mouth, rich taste...
The chef of Tianfu Food House and Li Hui were savoring the food carefully. "It smells really good."
Before I knew it, tears of deliciousness couldn't stop flowing.
The chef of Tianfu Food House was very surprised.
Although he knew that the braised pork and spicy and sour potato shreds made by Master Wang of Fengze Garden were so delicious that it made people cry, he thought that only ordinary people could make such a delicious dish.
A chef like him from a big restaurant has eaten and seen many delicious things, and even prepared state banquets with his predecessors. He must have a very broad vision and will definitely not be like those ordinary people who eat to the point of crying.
But now, the chef of Tianfu Food House was wiping his tears in embarrassment. He didn't expect that after tasting the food, it was so delicious that he cried. It was so embarrassing.
But the same was true for Li Hui on the opposite side. With someone accompanying him, the chef of Tianfu Food House felt much better.
"It seems that Hanyuan peppercorns are added to this braised pork. Although the taste is very light, it is indeed the taste of Hanyuan peppercorns, not some other variety of Sichuan peppercorns."
After wiping away his tears, Li Hui took a small bite of the braised pork and gave his opinion.
The chef of Tianfu Food House didn't pay attention just now, but now he took another bite and savored it carefully, "It's true, Master Wang didn't lie to me, he bought the Hanyuan peppercorns to make braised pork..."
"But how did he handle it? He actually made the braised pork with Hanyuan pepper, a very strong peppercorn, not taste dry or have the aroma of meat covered by the peppercorns..."
Li Hui frowned. With his level of skill, he couldn't imagine it at all.
The chef of Tianfu Food House was also confused, so he asked the waiter to call Chef Wang from the kitchen.
When Wang Jianye arrived, he saw that it was the chef of Tianfu Food House who had argued with him the day before that Sichuan peppercorns should never be added to braised pork, especially Hanyuan peppercorns, which have a strong Sichuan pepper flavor. He smiled and asked, "How is it? My braised pork tastes good after adding Hanyuan peppercorns, right?"
"Master Wang, I would like to ask, how did you handle it?"
The chef of Tianfu Food House and Li Hui both wanted to know.
Wang Jianye smiled and didn't rush to answer. Instead, he looked at the chef of Tianfu Food House and said, "My name is Wang Jianye. I haven't asked for your last name yet."
"Please don't mention your surname. My name is Gao Qianjin." The chef of Tianfu Food Restaurant just wanted to know how Master Wang prepared the braised pork. "Master Wang, can you tell us a little bit?"
"It's very easy actually..." Wang Jianye told Gao Qianjin and Li Hui how he handled it.
After hearing this, Gao Qianjin, the chef of Tianfu Food House, frowned and asked, "Can this prevent the meat from becoming tough due to adding Sichuan peppercorns?"
Li Hui also looked at him in confusion, "Master Wang, did you really handle it this way? You weren't worried that we would go back and replicate it and steal your Fengze Garden's business, so you just made up a random method?"
"Of course I did it this way. You can go back and try it. It sounds simple, but there are many other key points in my braised pork dish. If you don't know them, it's impossible to replicate it."
Wang Jianye smiled and shook his head. "Even if you knew, it would be hard to do it well because the required level is too high. I, Wang Jianye, am the only one in the whole Sijiu City who can do it!" "Master Wang, are you too conceited? Sijiu City is the capital, with a population of millions and many talented people. What makes you say that only you can do it?!"
Li Hui was not convinced.
Who isn't a genius? He is one too!
Li Hui stared at him and continued, "Master Wang, if you are confident enough, then tell me how you made this braised pork and the process. I promise to replicate it within a month, no, within half a month. Do you believe it?!"
"Then let's make a bet. I'll teach you how to make this braised pork. If you can make it within half a month, oh no, within a month, I'll also teach you how to make the spicy and sour potato shreds that made our Fengze Garden so popular for the first time. If you can't make it, you'll tell me all the sources of your Tianfu Food House's seasonings. How about that?"
After that, Wang Jianye looked at Tianfu Food Court's chef Gao Qianjin and asked with a smile, "You should know how popular our Fengze Garden became after I made that high-quality spicy and sour potato shreds. Don't you want to learn how to make a dish of this quality in your Tianfu Food Court?"
Gao Qianjin, the chef of Tianfu Food House, certainly thought about it, so he looked at Li Hui and said, "A month's time, are you confident?"
"Of course!"
Geniuses are always conceited. Li Hui felt that he was no worse than anyone else. He could definitely cook the dishes that other chefs could cook. It was just a matter of time. "But you have to teach me seriously. When I learn from you, you have to teach me whatever I ask. You can't hide anything."
"can."
Wang Jianye agreed readily.
He firmly believed that Li Hui would never be able to learn and replicate it. By then, he could obtain the supply channels of various seasonings for Tianfu Food House based on the bet.
You know, the most important thing about Sichuan cuisine is the seasoning.
Tianfu Shifang is the top-notch restaurant in the city that specializes in Sichuan cuisine, and the quality of all the seasonings used are very high.
If Wang Jianye could control the purchasing channels of Tianfu Shifang seasonings, then he wouldn't have to go through the trouble of looking for them himself, and he would be able to make the most authentic Sichuan cuisine.
"A word is settled!"
Li Hui said seriously.
Gao Qianjin, who was standing by, felt that it was unreliable to just talk about it, so he asked for paper and pen. In the presence of Zheng Hao, the manager of Fengze Garden, and Xu Youliang, the head waiter, he wrote out the bet in written form and asked Wang Jianye and Li Hui to sign two copies, each of which they kept.
"I hope Master Wang can fulfill the bet."
Gao Qianjin put away one of the paper bets. If their Tianfu Food House could learn how to make this delicious braised pork and this delicious spicy and sour potato shreds, they would definitely be able to attract a lot of customers.
Wang Jianye agreed with them to come over at 2:30 in the afternoon, and he would teach them how to make his superb braised pork.
On the way back, Gao Qianjin couldn't help but ask Li Hui beside him, "Are you sure?"
"As long as he teaches well, I am confident that I can learn it! A month is already a lot of time. I can replicate it for him in a week at most! There is nothing special about Master Wang!"
Li Hui was full of confidence in himself. He was sure that whatever Wang Jianye could do, he could do too!
