Chapter 147 Respect Him
Because it was time for dinner, everyone gathered in the cafeteria.
Several leaders of the county party committee, including the county governor and the county party secretary, stayed in a private room.
There were eight people sitting there.
Zhou Zhengqi spent two hours preparing this meal and was almost done.
When Master Kang was preparing the big pot dish, he inadvertently looked up and smelled the aroma of the braised pig's tail.
He had to admit that this was the most fragrant smell of braised meat he had ever smelled since he became a chef.
I didn't expect that Zhou Zheng is really capable.
The pig's tail that has just been braised may not be flavorful enough, so you have to take it away with the braising liquid and set it aside for a while.
When you are sure that the seasoning is fully absorbed, use a knife to cut the whole pig tail into sections, place it on a plate, add garnishes, and serve.
Zhou Zheng was not the one responsible for serving the food. He was the chef, so naturally he was not in charge of serving the food.
Even the person standing on the buttress was someone else. He asked a young man under Master Kang to help him.
At first, the young man surnamed Wang was reluctant.
But Zhou Zheng just gave Master Kang a look, and the other party immediately ordered Wang Bing:
"Just do what I tell you to do, stop nagging me."
So, Zhou Zheng had an idea.
Wang Bing's cooking was not very good, but he was still a good helper. He stood well on the stool and cooked the vegetables evenly.
He could make whatever Zhou Zheng asked him to make, hair threads, hair strips, hair segments, hair slices, all with ease.
This was the first meal Zhou Zheng prepared for the leaders.
In this era, there is no such thing as a banquet standard. It is considered good to have meat, wine and vegetables.
After Zhou Zheng prepared the dishes, he had them served one by one.
One dish, one soup, and two dishes, for eight people.
There is enough rice and all the dishes are provided.
The braised pig tail is served as a cold dish.
There is also a mixed three-shred dish.
The rest are hot dishes.
The stewed pork absorbs the aroma of garlic and fermented black beans, and the meat becomes fat but not greasy and tastes very refreshing.
As soon as the dishes were served, Mayor Hu of Kaiyuan Township said to Mayor Zhang, "Come, try the cooking of this new chef.
I tasted it myself before, so I brought it to you."
After hearing this, County Magistrate Zhang's eyes lit up: "Really? Then I have to try it."
The table was full of delicious dishes. Even though there were more vegetables and less meat, the dishes were bright in color and made people feel appetizing at first glance.
There are even some decorations on the edge of the plate, made of celery leaves or coriander leaves.
It also looks very distinctive.
It can be seen that Zhou Zheng is still cooking with all his heart.
Several leaders started to eat.
Everyone had a great time chatting at the dinner table.
After just one bite, everyone had a strange expression on their face.
That expression was as if one had eaten the most delicious food in life, and the whole person felt relaxed.
It's as if the delicious food passes through the stomach and intestines, allowing every part of the body to achieve the most wonderful enjoyment.
"Well, Mayor Hu, where did you invite this chef from?
This dish is really good, isn’t it?”
Mayor Hu was praised and his face was full of pride:
"I just happened to eat this young man's food when I was attending a meeting in my hometown, and I thought it was delicious.
So we took the opportunity of this county meeting to invite him over.
His cooking is delicious, right? "
"Indeed."
The county party secretary, who rarely spoke, also spoke.
But he was doing ideological work, and then he gave a lot of truth:
"We are working here, we can't just talk about food and nothing else, right?
