Chapter 657 Chapter 664 The Lion Head of Diaoyutai Executive Chef
Afterwards, everyone visited the headquarters of Yixin Entertainment Company. The headquarters of Yixin Entertainment Company is well-equipped and elegant, and the employees are full of enthusiasm for work.

However, Lin Haocang was a little surprised that the entire headquarters was very brand-new, and praised: "Mr. Yang, the headquarters is very brand-new, very good."

After all, with an investment of 4 million yuan, Yixin Entertainment still satisfied Lin Haocang, and the first impression was very good.

Yang Xinwei hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin, we used to live in a small building, but recently moved to a new headquarters."

Speaking of this, she was secretly grateful. Fortunately, some time ago, she decisively moved to the new headquarters. Otherwise, if Mr. Lin came to visit the headquarters today and saw a dilapidated and messy headquarters, it would be really embarrassing. No matter how strong the ability is, Mr. Lin will be disappointed in his heart.

Wu Yu on the side also smiled and said: "Mr. Yang, the environment here is very good and the location is very convenient. I even want to move the headquarters of the Sky Entertainment Group's branch in Kyoto here."

Yang Xinwei smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Wu, I can just be a companion."

Lin Haocang smiled and said, "Old Wu, you can think about it."

Listening to Lin Haocang's words, Wu Yu immediately understood Lin Haocang's meaning, and quickly said: "Chairman, I think the location here is very convenient, the surrounding environment, and public facilities are also very good. It is very suitable for the headquarters of the branch company."

"Then you can figure it out!" Lin Haocang nodded, and continued to visit various departments of Yixin Entertainment Company with everyone.

Time flies, Lin Haocang left the headquarters of Yixin Entertainment Company after receiving a call from Luo Xueqiong, and it was already twelve noon when he returned to the State Guest House.

Luo Xueqiong smiled and pulled Lin Haocang to the banquet hall, and said, "Today, Mr. Huang from the back kitchen prepared some special dishes for us!"

Lin Haocang was a little surprised, and blurted out: "Specially prepare dishes for us?"

"Well, yes." Luo Xueqiong said happily: "It's specially made for me. I said a lot of food suggestions last night, and the old man behind took it seriously. He insisted on making a special state banquet for us!"

"That's the executive chef of Diaoyutai!"

Housekeeper Chen on the side smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Lin, it is our responsibility to satisfy the distinguished guests. Actually, it is not a special case. As long as Mr. Huang has time, he likes to communicate with guests who know how to eat. Please don't mind."

Lin Haocang was a little excited after hearing this, he didn't expect such a blessing, he gave Luo Xueqiong a weird look.

It's really lucky to be able to see the highest level of the Imperial Dining Room.

Butler Chen went to the back kitchen to make arrangements. Lin Haocang was looking forward to it, and soon the first dish was served, and the blue and white porcelain lid was opened.

"Lion's head in clear soup!" Chen Butler smiled and said, "It's clear and not light, fat but not greasy."

"Wow, it's really good!" Luo Xueqiong grabbed Lin Haocang's hand excitedly, "The housekeeper in our courtyard also makes lion's head. It's delicious. How about the ones here?"

The light yellow lion's head, soaked in milky white broth, is dotted with two slices of green vegetables, refreshing and simple.

Chen Guanjia explained: "This dish was originally a classic of Huaiyang cuisine. It is plump and looks like the head of a lion. It was originally called sunflower chop meat. When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was traveling, chefs used Yangzhou Wansong Mountain, Qianqiandun, Ivory Forest, Sunflower Gang Four dishes of squirrel mandarin fish, money shrimp cakes, ivory chicken strips and sunflower chopped meat were made with the theme of the four famous scenes, which will be famous forever."

Lin Haocang also nodded secretly, picked up the chopsticks, gently picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and it instantly turned into rich gravy, like nectar after rain, sweeping across the dry land, and his entire taste buds were like hungry elves, jumping for joy.

As the big waves wash away the sand, all kinds of flavors come in one after another, like sparks of fire, detonating the taste buds again.

Wave after wave of fragrance, like the endless stream of torrential river, with clear layers, makes people linger and forget to return.

Lin Haocang couldn't help closing his eyes, enjoying it.

At this time, Luo Xueqiong was also pretending to learn, these days when she was in the courtyard, she did not learn from the professional housekeeper and asked for advice.

Last time she learned how to make a lion's head, but her skills were too low and she couldn't cut it very well, so she opened her eyes and exclaimed: "It's so good!"

As she spoke, she picked up another piece of lion's head with her chopsticks and held it up to her eyes. After careful observation, she said, "From meatballs to lion's heads, the biggest difference lies in chopping and cutting."

Butler Chen said with a smile, "Miss, the result of the so-called chopping is similar to minced meat, and the subsequent process of pounding or throwing is obviously more complicated and delicate than the former."

"Back then, Wang Xiaoyu, the cook of Yuan Mei, a gourmet in the Qing Dynasty, once chopped pork into minced meat, which was half fat and thin, and made it into lion heads for the owner to comment on. Yuan Mei left only seven words after eating: meatballs should be cut, not chopped."

"The cutting process is inseparable from beating. The purpose is to loosen the fibers on the surface of the diced meat and make it stick to the diced meat."

"Chefs usually choose pork belly that is four fat and thin six by hand, cut into small pieces, and add other auxiliary materials, which are beaten and boiled, and served with clear soup."

At this moment, Luo Xueqiong suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "This is the Eight Treasure Meatball!"

Her housekeeper in the courtyard was a professional chef, and told her about this weird method, but unfortunately she couldn't learn it at all.

···
"Well, not bad, I can actually see it"

At this time, an old man came slowly, with a ruddy complexion and a dignified look.

Butler Chen hurried forward and said respectfully, "Old Huang, you are here."

"Well, let's take a look." Huang Feili came to Lin Haocang and Luo Xueqiong, looked up and down, and said politely: "Hello, both of you."

Lin Haocang said modestly, "Mr. Huang is good."

"Hello, Grandpa Huang!" Luo Xueqiong said sweetly,

"Xiaoxueqiong met again, you know the eight-treasure meatball?" Huang Feili glanced at Luo Xueqiong curiously, then looked at the lion's head, and said softly: "Pork essence and fat are half and half, chopped into fine sauce, mixed with pine nuts, Vanilla, bamboo shoots, cayenne, melon, ginger, etc., chopped into a fine sauce, added fiber powder and kneaded into a ball, put in eight plates, added sweet wine, and steamed in autumn oil."

"Chop with the back of a knife for half an hour, and all the tendons of the meat will be broken, so that you can have the feeling that the roots are broken."

"Wow, that's amazing, Grandpa Huang, shall I let my housekeeper sister come to apprentice with you?" Luo Xueqiong was very excited, "Grandpa Huang, why don't you just come to our house to be the head chef?"

"Uh, cough cough, I'm old, I'm afraid I'm powerless." Huang Feili was suddenly embarrassed, and didn't know how to answer Luo Xueqiong's childish question for a while.

Lin Haocang flicked Luo Xueqiong's pink face, and said with a smile: "My sister is open-minded, don't take offense to Mr. Huang." Lin Haocang pointed to the lion's head and asked, "What is the origin of such a lion's head?"
