Chapter 24 Buddha Jumps over the Wall
Jiang Feng took his schoolbag and arrived at the store at 12:40. The teacher in the last class lived up to expectations and successfully helped all the students solve the problem of grabbing food, so that everyone could enjoy the happiness of leftovers in the empty canteen.
Jiang Feng saw a lunch box on the counter in the kitchen.
A blue, three-layer, expensive lunch box, very insulating, very common in high schools and very rare in universities.
"Senior, is this your lunch box?" Jiang Feng asked. He really couldn't think of anyone who would use such a lunch box in college.
"It's not mine, it's Zhang Wei's. He also has another one. He asked me to put rice on the first layer, vegetables on the second layer, and soup on the third layer." Ji Yue explained.
Jiang Feng nodded, it's good, environmentally friendly.
It seems that Zhang Wei has made up his mind to eat their takeout every day. He is worthy of the legend of a rich family who has sold software for tens of thousands. This month's food expenses can cover the living expenses of most of his classmates.
It was clearly past meal time, but Jiang Jianjian was still busy in the kitchen. He took out his precious Shaoxing wine, and there were twenty or thirty large and small plates on the cooking table.
Shaoxing wine jar?
Jiang Feng came closer and found that, sure enough, there were many precious ingredients such as lamb knuckles, pork belly, hoof tips, tendons, abalone, shark fin, sea cucumber and scallops, all of which were necessary for the Buddha to jump over the wall. And judging from the appearance alone, they are not common items on the market, nor do they look like Comrade Jiang Jiankang could assemble them in a short period of time.
Theirs is just an ordinary stir-fry restaurant, but it doesn't have as wide a range of purchasing methods as a big hotel.
Jiang Jianzheng was operating deer tendons, scallops were soaking, and on his left hand was a piece of authentic Jinhua ham that the old man's friend sent him a few years ago.
Looking at this, Comrade Jiang Jiankang is going to spend a lot of money.
This piece of Jinhua ham is his treasure, and Jiang Feng has never tasted it.
"Dad, where did you get so many ingredients?" Jiang Feng asked curiously.
"The guest brought it himself, that professor of yours who came for lunch on the opening day. His surname seems to be Chen. He is quite old." Jiang Jiankang said, pointing to the abalone on the plate, "Go and crack the abalone. .”
Jiang Feng went to get the knife.
The abalone is a four-headed abalone, which is of excellent quality. I don’t know what method Professor Li used to get fresh and alive four-headed abalone in City A, which is not on the coast. Generally, dried abalone is used to make Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, because the fragrance of dried abalone is stronger, but since the guests have brought the ingredients, they all have their own preferences for radish and cabbage. For Comrade Jiang Jiangan, who is good at soup stock, fresh abalone is more suitable for him. appetite.
Jiang Feng had never tasted the dish of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall.
It’s not because the ingredients are expensive. If you go to a hotel now, you can buy a cup of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall for a few hundred yuan. But Mr. Jiang has very high requirements for ingredients, and he doesn't like hormone meat or pesticide dishes. Therefore, if the Jiang family wants to make Buddha jump over the wall, they must use the best ingredients.
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was also one of Tai Feng Restaurant's signature dishes back then. Mr. Jiang would never allow his unscrupulous descendants to taint the Jiang family's signature dish.
There are 18 kinds of main ingredients and 12 kinds of auxiliary ingredients. Jiang Jiankang patiently processed each ingredient in turn. During this period, he took the time to make a scribbled lunch for everyone. Before Jiang Feng went to the classroom, he was soaking fish maw in hair.
Jiang Jiankang is no longer the head chef of the state-owned chefs he used to be. It is a rare opportunity for him to get such good ingredients to make a big dish.
The sun was shining brightly at noon, and the scorching rays made people dizzy.
On the way to the classroom, Jiang Feng called Mr. Jiang.
The old man has never been in the habit of taking a nap. According to his biological clock, he should be cooking pig food for his precious pigs now.
Afternoon tea plus meal is really enviable.
"Hey, Xiaofeng, are you okay?" Mr. Jiang's angry voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Grandpa, the professor at our school would like to invite you to come over and make a clear soup with agarwood." Jiang Feng went straight to the point.
"No." The old man refused very simply.
"Our professor prepares his own materials. He came to the store today to find his father to make Buddha Jump Over the Wall. He also brought his own ingredients. I saw that the ingredients are very good, and they are definitely rare and top-notch." Jiang Feng still hopes to complete this branch line. task.
The words "the ingredients are very good" obviously moved Mr. Jiang. He was silent for a moment and said, "Why did the professor from your school come all the way to ask me to cook this dish?"
If someone came to ask Mr. Jiang to make a special dish 30 years ago, he would not be surprised. After all, he was still a well-known state-owned chef at that time, and he also entertained many people who came here because of his reputation. But now that he has retired for so many years, there are so many good chefs in the world, and he is not the only one missing.
"When our professor's father was young, he once tasted the clear soup of willow leaves made by his great-grandfather in Tai Feng Tower. He wanted his father to try it again." Jiang Feng explained.
"I will go to City A next week." The old man sighed, "It has been 70 years, and there are still people who remember Tai Feng Tower."
Jiang Feng hung up the phone, but after talking for a few minutes, the phone actually felt a little warm. I don't know if it was the sun or Xiaomi's instinct for having a fever.
During class in the afternoon, Jiang Feng had been a little absent-minded.
This was the first time he had seen Comrade Jiang Jiankang jump over the wall as a Buddha. He was not able to witness the whole process with his own eyes, so he kept thinking about it.
"Brother Feng, what are you thinking about? You've checked your watch three times in the past two minutes." Wang Hao nudged Jiang Feng with his elbow.
"My dad is doing Buddha Jumping Over the Wall in the kitchen at noon," Jiang Feng said.
"I've eaten Buddha Jumping Over the Wall before. There's one in Yipinxuan in our city. It's six hundred and eighty-eight cups a cup, and it's gone in two bites. It's delicious, but it's not as magical as what is written in novels." Wang Hao said that he too He is considered a person who has seen the world.
Yipinxuan Jiang Feng knew that the main dish was Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, and Buddha Jumping Over the Wall was not even their store's signature dish.
"If you have eaten 1888, you won't think so. My grandpa said that there is a restaurant in Fujian where the Buddha jumps over the wall. The fragrance spreads for ten miles. The limit is 100 servings per day. Even if you make a reservation for three months, you can't make a reservation. Jiang Feng said, pretending to be listening to the class, and cooperated with the teacher to turn a page of the book.
"Can uncle make it today with the same effect?" Wang Hao began to salivate involuntarily.
"Definitely not, but it's definitely better than the 688 one you had." Jiang Feng said.
The former chef of that restaurant in Fujian can be regarded as half of Mr. Jiang's master. Mr. Jiang's Buddha Jumping Over the Wall was taught by him.
They now own a restaurant that is famous all over the country, and the Jiang family now owns a restaurant with a prosperous business.
There is also a drug store that is about to open, a tailor shop that is resigned to fate, a pet shop that survives on small profits but quick turnover, and the old man's three beloved pigs.
As soon as get out of class was over, Jiang Feng and Wang Hao rushed to the store with their schoolbags.
Comrade Wang Xiulian was sitting in front of the counter, with her legs crossed and her chin propped up while watching a drama. Comrade Jiang Jiankang moved a chair and sat in the kitchen watching her Buddha jump over the wall.
The chairs in healthy stir-fry restaurants all have one characteristic: they are sturdy.
The lotus leaves sealed all the fragrance, and the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall looked like an ordinary wine jar.
"Son, chop the vegetables." Jiang Jiankang ordered, without looking away from the jar in front of him.
Jiang Feng took a knife to chop vegetables.
Starting at five o'clock, customers began to arrive in the store.
Jiang Jianjiang gave full power to Jiang Feng. Although he was a little cruel to the guests, Jiang Feng had not heard the beautiful experience value prompt for a long time. There has been no increase in experience points for two days. In the morning, I spent 1,000 to upgrade physics, successfully achieving reverse growth.
At nearly six o'clock, Professor Li and his wife walked into the store supporting an old man on crutches.
"Dad, be careful." Professor Li helped his father walk to the nearest table and sit down.
Ji Yue went into the kitchen and told Jiang Jianjian that Professor Li was here.
Jiang Jiankang directly brought out the entire wine jar.
Uncover and unfold the lotus leaves.
The aroma hits your face and permeates the entire store.
In the store, the customer who was playing with his phone with his head down couldn't help but raise his head, looking for the source of the fragrance.
"What dish is so delicious?" asked a boy wearing glasses.
"Buddha jumped over the wall." Ji Yue replied thoughtfully.
Poverty shut his mouth.
Li Mingyi shook his head and stood up tremblingly. Professor Li and his wife quickly helped him up, for fear that he would fall.
"It doesn't taste like this." Li Mingyi's voice was extremely hoarse.
"Sorry, Master Jiang, please pack it up!" Professor Li said apologetically.
"It's because I'm not good at cooking."
Ji Yue quickly went to find the packing box.
"Classmate Xiao Jiang, don't you know your grandfather?" Professor Li turned his attention to Jiang Feng.
"My grandpa said he will come to City A next week." Jiang Feng said.
"Trouble, I'm really troubling you." Professor Li said repeatedly.
"Your grandfather, is he Jiang Weiguo?" Li Mingyi asked.
"Yes." Jiang Feng nodded.
"I remember him. At that time, he was no taller than my waist. When serving food, Hui Qing praised him for how handsome he was." Li Ming's cloudy eyes gained a hint of brilliance.
Then he murmured some nonsense that no one could understand, and left the store with the support of Professor Li and his wife. (End of chapter)
