Siheyuan: Tanjia Cuisine He Daqing, destroying Yi Zhonghai

He Daqing knows that he still has a long way to go, but he believes that as long as he keeps working hard and stays true to his original aspiration, he will also always keep in mind the neighbors in the courtyard and the teachings of Master Liu, and make every dish with care and give back to everyone who supports him.

He Daqing's work in the restaurant was getting more and more handy, but he always felt that he needed more breakthroughs and innovations. One day, he decided to go to the market to look for some special ingredients to add new flavors to his dishes.

He Daqing got up early and went to a well-known food market. Specialties from all over the country were gathered here, and the dazzling array of food was dazzling. He carefully observed each stall and asked the stall owner about the characteristics and usage of each ingredient. A stall owner recommended a unique spice to him, saying that it could add a special flavor to the dishes. Sure enough, he found that this spice was different from what he had used before, so he bought some without hesitation.

After returning home, He Daqing couldn't wait to start experimenting with the new spices he bought. He carefully mixed the proportions of each spice and carefully recorded the results of each attempt. Although he failed several times, he was not discouraged, but kept adjusting and improving. After several days of hard work, He Daqing finally prepared a new dish that satisfied him. He decided to try this dish in the restaurant, hoping to bring a new taste experience to the guests.

At the restaurant's food tasting meeting, He Daqing served the new dish with great anticipation. The boss and colleagues gathered around, smelling the fragrant aroma and showing their anticipation. After tasting it, everyone was immediately impressed and praised the dish for its unique taste and endless aftertaste. Hearing these compliments, He Daqing was filled with a sense of accomplishment and joy. He knew that his efforts were not in vain.

However, He Daqing also understood that innovation is not something that can be achieved overnight. He decided to continue exploring more ingredients and seasonings to improve his cooking skills. Every weekend, he would go to different markets and stores to look for those uncommon ingredients. Sometimes, he would visit some old chefs to ask them for their experience and tips. These efforts not only enriched his knowledge, but also broadened his horizons.

One day, He Daqing found a rare wild delicacy in an old shop in a small alley. He asked the shop owner about the origin and usage of this wild delicacy. The shop owner told him that this wild delicacy can only be found in specific seasons and specific mountains and forests. It tastes delicious and is rich in nutrition. He Daqing immediately bought some, brought it back to the restaurant, and began to study how to incorporate this wild delicacy into his dishes.

After repeated experiments, He Daqing finally made a special dish with wild delicacies as the main ingredients. In order to ensure that the dish would be recognized by the guests, he decided to launch it at an important banquet. That day, the banquet hall was full of people, and the guests were looking forward to the delicious dishes. He Daqing served the new dish with a nervous and excited mood.

"Dear guests, this is a newly developed wild delicacy. Please taste it and give us your valuable suggestions." He Daqing said with a smile as he stood beside the table.

The guests took a bite and burst into praise. "This dish is so delicious!" "I have never tasted such delicious mountain delicacies." Various praises were heard one after another.

He Daqing felt a sense of pride in his heart, knowing that he had taken another important step on the road of cooking. However, he also understood that the world of cooking is endless and he still has a lot to learn and explore. So he studied harder and worked hard to improve his skills.

Whenever it was late at night, He Daqing would often sit alone in the kitchen, thinking about how to bring out the best of the ingredients. He remembered what Master Liu once said to him: "Cooking is not just about skills, but also about understanding and respecting the ingredients." This sentence was deeply imprinted in his heart and became his motivation to keep moving forward.

He Daqing's efforts and persistence were gradually recognized by the restaurant owner and colleagues. The owner decided to let him be responsible for the restaurant's training and train more young chefs. He Daqing gladly accepted this task, hoping to pass on what he has learned to more people and help them realize their dreams.

During the training, He Daqing not only taught cooking skills, but also often encouraged apprentices to be innovative and keep trying new ingredients and methods. He knows that only by continuous exploration and innovation can the art of cooking remain vibrant.

On a sunny morning, He Daqing brought a group of apprentices to the market and personally selected ingredients for them. "Look, this fresh seafood has bright colors and firm meat. It is the best choice for making seafood dishes." He said as he picked up a lively fish and demonstrated it to everyone.

The apprentices watched He Daqing's careful explanation and nodded their heads, saying that they benefited a lot. "Master, you are really our role model. We will definitely work hard to learn from you." A young apprentice said gratefully.

He Daqing smiled and patted his apprentice on the shoulder: "As long as you do it with your heart, every dish will have life, and every taste will tell a story."

As time goes by, He Daqing's reputation grows, and more and more people come to learn from him. He knows that the responsibility on his shoulders is getting heavier, but he is willing to take it all because he loves cooking and loves this career that can bring happiness to people.

In the courtyard, He Daqing is still the diligent and studious young man. Whenever he comes back here, the neighbors always entertain him warmly and share their daily lives and thoughts. He Daqing is also happy to listen to their stories and feel the strong neighborhood love.

One day, He Daqing met a strange old man in the yard. The old man looked plainly dressed, but he had an extraordinary temperament. Out of curiosity, He Daqing took the initiative to approach him and said, "Old man, are you new here?"

The old man smiled and said, "No, I just passed by here and smelled a familiar smell, so I couldn't help but come in to take a look."

He Daqing was moved and invited the old man to sit down in the house and personally made a signature dish for him. After tasting it, the old man praised it repeatedly: "I haven't tasted such a pure taste for a long time. You are really a talented young man."

He Daqing was filled with gratitude and pride when he heard the old man's comments. He knew that his efforts were recognized, which made him more determined to continue pursuing the art of cooking.

He Daqing's reputation in the hotel grew, but he never forgot the life in the courtyard house, which was his original starting point.
