One is willing to teach and the other is willing to learn. Jia Dongsheng and Nan Yi would discuss other dishes from time to time. Not to mention, Nan Yi's cooking skills at this time were certainly not as good as Jia Dongsheng's.
However, Nan Yi can cook some dishes that Jia Dongsheng can't.
There is no way. As I said before, cooking skills will get better and better with the development of time, and the upper limit will become higher and higher. However, many dishes will gradually be lost as time goes by.
Not to mention other things, many recipes will be lost when the wind blows.
There is no way around it, the recipe is also one of the four olds.
So, the profession of a chef is very safe, but the recipes are not safe.
As a top chef of later generations, Jia Dongsheng knows many chefs of the older generation who have spent their entire lives trying to reproduce delicacies that have been recorded in writing but whose recipes have been lost.
For example, the delicacies recorded in "Dream of the Red Chamber" are so delicious that later chefs cannot even make one tenth of them, and all of them have been lost.
Therefore, Nan Yi knew some dishes that Jia Dongsheng didn't know, which made Jia Dongsheng very happy. This was a good opportunity to improve the recipe.
Taking this opportunity, Jia Dongsheng and Nan Yi had a long talk, from the four major cuisines in ancient times to the eight major cuisines today, and talked about some of the famous dishes of each cuisine.
It can be said that the more we talked, the more interested we became. Before we knew it, the afternoon had passed and it was time to eat the roasted whole lamb.
"Dongsheng."
Suddenly, Xu Damao's voice was heard, but the tone was a little unclear. Jia Dongsheng and Nan Yi were still unfinished in their discussion, but they had to stop.
But at this moment, Jia Dongsheng had already decided that he must transfer Nan Yi to the steel rolling mill. This guy is worthy of being the state banquet chef in the play. He is very talented and has very high skills. He must be brought around to train.
After the reform and opening up, Nan Yi's skills will definitely allow him to run a big restaurant. By then, he will make a fortune every day and count money until his hands cramp.
That’s right, Jia Dongsheng was thinking about this.
"Da Mao, you're awake."
At this time, Xu Damao still looked sleepy and drunk. There was no way, on the wedding day, how many grooms could stay sober.
"Dongsheng, how about the bet between me and Shazhu? Who wins and who loses?"
When saying this, Xu Damao had already become energetic. There was nothing he could do about it. He was really looking forward to seeing Sha Zhu pouring him some wine.
Unfortunately, Jia Dongsheng could only disappoint him and shook his head: "Nan Yi's level is already very good, but in terms of taste, it is half a step behind Sha Zhu."
"Maybe after another year or two, this small gap can be closed, but it's not possible now."
When this was said, Nan Yi was fine. It was not that he did not care about winning or losing, but Jia Dongsheng had already told him before, and also told him where the gap was, so that Nan Yi had room for improvement.
It was precisely because of Jia Dongsheng's advice that Nan Yi became even more grateful to Jia Dongsheng.
But Nan Yi had no problem, but Xu Damao couldn't accept it. Although he knew in his heart that there were wins and losses in betting, this time the loss was a bit big. He needed to bow his head to pour wine for Sha Zhu. Hiss... This was the wedding day, and the groom had to bow his head to pour wine. Is this fair?
"Xu Damao."
A voice that almost frightened Xu Damao to the point of jumping up rang in his ears. When he turned around in disbelief, Sha Zhu was already standing quietly behind him.
"Silly, Shazhu." Xu Damao spoke with a stutter.
How could it be such a coincidence that he didn't even have time to escape the bet. If Sha Zhu hadn't shown up, Xu Damao was planning to take Lou Xiao'e to stay overnight at his father-in-law's house.
He really didn't want to bow his head and pour wine to admit defeat on his wedding day!
"Why are you like this? Are you drunk?" Sha Zhu saw that Xu Damao was in a bad state and thought that Xu Damao was still drunk.
Xu Damao was indeed not sober, but more importantly, he didn't want to face Sha Zhu at this moment, especially because he was afraid that Sha Zhu would bring up the bet.
"Well, I drank too much. I'm going back to the house and lie down for a while."
Xu Damao was about to walk back after saying this, but before he left, he paused and said, "The roasted whole lamb is ready, you can eat it now."
"The whole roasted lamb is ready. I'm hungry."
Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu seemed to have really forgotten about the bet. He turned around and wanted to find a stool to sit down and eat meat. However, his body just turned away and then turned back again.
"Xu Damao, don't leave yet."
"What's wrong, Shazhu?" Xu Damao's face turned bitter, but he tried to pretend that nothing had happened.
"What's the matter? It's a bet. The winner and loser have already been decided."
After saying this, Sha Zhu didn't look at Xu Damao, but looked at Jia Dongsheng, and also noticed Nan Yi. However, Sha Zhu didn't know Nan Yi, so he didn't talk to Nan Yi. Instead, he asked Jia Dongsheng: "Dongsheng, how is the chef that Sha Zhu found? Is he as good as me?"
To be honest, when asking this question, Sha Zhu's heartbeat quickened. There was nothing he could do. Xu Damao was so sure and confident, and he was not sure either.
There was no way. He knew Xu Damao so well that he knew clearly that Xu Damao rarely fought unprepared battles. If he dared to bet, he would definitely have a chance of winning.
"You win. The chef Xu Damao hired is half a step behind you."
Jia Dongsheng was not one to lie, so he spoke frankly, "If Damao had come to make the bet with you a year or two later, you would have lost."
"So strong?"
Sha Zhu also opened his mouth, but he didn't expect that the other party was half a step worse than him. On this point, Sha Zhu absolutely believed what Jia Dongsheng said. In his heart, he was very convinced of Jia Dongsheng.
But, winning is winning.
Then, Sha Zhu Zhuantou looked at the dejected Xu Damao and couldn't help laughing wildly: "Wahahahahahaha..."
This laughter made Xu Damao's face look even more depressed. On his wedding day, he had to admit defeat. Where could he go to seek justice?
"Why am I so stupid? So stupid! Why didn't I call Nan Yi back before making the bet and cook a meal for Dongsheng to taste first?"
Xu Damao frowned and said three words with an unpleasant expression: "You win."
"Hahahaha, I knew I would win, Xu Damao. You will never be able to beat your Master Zhu. When you see your Master Zhu from now on, walk with your head down. When you eat with me in the future, remember to sit at the table for the children."
At this moment, Sha Zhu was almost dancing with excitement. On the day of Xu Damao's wedding, he became the biggest winner. This feeling, in one word, was awesome.
"Xu Damao, come on, pour me a glass of wine." Sha Zhu quickly found a stool, sat down with his legs crossed, and began to give orders.
"you......"
Xu Damao was so angry that his teeth were itching, but as a man in Beijing, he had to do what he said, admit his mistakes, stand at attention when he was beaten, and get some wine.
"Just wait for me."
After saying that, he walked towards the backyard and went to get the wine, willing to accept the loss.
