Chapter 60: This stuff is delicious
“It smells so good, are you inviting everyone to dinner?” That’s when Le Meixuan came running over.
“Yeah, this is my full meal of medicine, so everyone try it and see what you think.” Tang Han said.
These chefs saw Tang Han made it in a good way, but they didn’t know how it tasted. Hearing Tang Han said it was for everyone to taste, they picked up chopsticks and tasted it.
“Mmm, delicious, boss you make it much better than us ……”
“Boss, you are really a genius at being a chef ……”
“Boss, this tofu is even better than the original palace jade tofu made by head chef Li Hanting ……”
As everyone talked and ate, it was clear that the compliments came from the heart and were not flattery.
Le Meixuan saw that everyone was eating more and more happily, and said urgently, “The boss just let you taste the food, not let you eat enough, save some for me.”
“Tang Han, what is this dish called?” Le Meixuan asked as he grabbed a piece of lettuce from a plate and ate it.

“Then I’ll have some more, what is this made of and why is it called the Four Beauties?” Le Meixuan asked as he ate.
Tang Han explained, “This dish is made of lettuce, lotus root, winter melon and white radish, each ingredient is a beauty good for women, and I added the essence of sixteen kinds of Chinese herbs, women will become more and more beautiful and become a great beauty when they eat, so I named him Four Beauties.”
“Well, the food is delicious and the name is good.” Le Meixuan praised.
She pointed to a plate with a little more onion and asked, “What about this one? Is it sautéed dollar onions?”
Tang Han said, “My dishes are all medicinal, how can I have fried yuan onions.
This dish is called Friends of the Heart, the main ingredient is round onion, and I added the essence of nine kinds of herbs, which is especially good for heart patients after eating, so I named it Friends of the Heart.”
Le Meixuan picked up another thinly sliced piece of meat from another soup bowl and put it in his mouth, saying, “This is delicious, nice and chewy, what’s this dish called?”
Tang Han looked at her with a strange expression and said, “This dish is called Eight Faces, and it is specially for men.”
“Oh, why is it called eight-faced? Is it very powerful after eating it?” Le Meixuan said and ate another slice of that stuff.
“Uh …… this, a man’s prowess is not reflected from his strength.” Tang Han has some bad explanations.
“Stammering, just tell me what this dish is made of.” Le Meixuan asked. the less Tang Han said, the more curious she became.
“This man eats a little more, and that ingredient is a little more special.” Tang Han said carefully?
“Men eat a little more? What’s the big deal about kidney tonic. Mysteriously, do you have kidney deficiency?” Le Meixuan did not care to say, but she did not intend to give up, and asked again, “Come on, what is it.”
“That …… Chinese medicine has a saying called form tonic, in the words of the common people is to eat what is tonic. This is some kind of object from the donkey, but I added some herbs that nourish the yin and tonify the kidneys, men eat it, the effect will be better.” Tang Han said vaguely.
“What do you eat to make up for it? Is it a donkey kidney? What’s there, it’s still worth you swallowing.” Le Meixuan finished and studied it curiously, looked at it for a while, and then picked up a piece and sent it into his mouth.
Han Han cried and laughed and couldn’t help but say, “Auntie, you’re not studying this table, why are you studying this alone?”
At this point, the chefs next to them have understood what is going on, a burst of laughter.
Le Meixuan felt a little off, and stared round with wide eyes, “Not a donkey kidney, could it be a donkey whip?”
“It’s not all donkey whips, we generally call this the donkey three pieces.” Tang Han said.
“You …… are disgusting.” Le Meixuan spit out the pieces of meat he hadn’t swallowed yet in his mouth, and then had another dry heave.
“Hey, don’t throw up, this ingredient is very expensive.” Tang Han laughed.
After the fuss, Tang Han said to the chefs, “How do you feel about these medicinal meals? I have studied it with Manager Le, and our restaurant will be changed to a medicinal food workshop immediately. If you all have comments try to put forward, we will work together to find ways to improve.”
A fat chef said, “Boss, are these really medicinal dishes? I can’t taste the herbal medicine at all.”

The reason why you can’t eat the taste of Chinese medicine is because I have used a secret method to suppress the medicinal taste of these Chinese medicines, but they do exist.”
Tang Han took out a piece of dulcimer from the friend of mind and said, “Look, this is dulcimer, just like a fake, but you can’t eat its taste.”
The chefs couldn’t help but be surprised, and began to look at their little boss with astonishment.
Zhang Dajiang, the deputy head chef, said, “Boss, I’ve been a chef for more than 20 years, but I’ve never eaten a dish with such a unique flavor, I really can’t tell what you put in it.”
Tang Han smiled faintly, did not say anything, the dish is full of aura, the world is also his only one.
Zhang Dajiang turn of phrase, and said: “But if we change into a medicinal food workshop, there are still difficulties, we are all chefs, know nothing about Chinese medicine, simply can not do medicinal food. Can’t be such a big hotel on the boss a person as a chef, then we are not laid off.”
The other chefs laughed after Zhang Dajiang finished, but I could see from their eyes that this was also their question. Tang Han just gave them a raise in salary, so they can’t afford to leave.
Tang Han said, “There is no problem, I will take care of the ingredients of each dish in advance, labeled with the name, you only need to make the dishes, I am completely responsible for the Chinese medicine. Otherwise, I can’t even get busy with such a big restaurant.”
Zhang Dajiang said: “Then I have no problem, according to my old Zhang’s experience, the boss’s medicinal food will certainly be popular in Jiangnan City.”
Tang Han said, “Then, we will learn the preparation of medicinal food in the next few days, and open for business when the rest of the restaurant is ready.
Then again, the hotel’s head chef is temporarily served by Zhang Dajiang, with the same treatment as Li Hanting.”
Zhang Dajiang a burst of excitement, although his culinary skills are very high, but the restaurant used to focus on court dishes, is the secret recipe of Li Han Ting, so even if he is a good cook can only be the sous chef. Today, he finally got what he wanted and became the head chef, and his salary will be significantly increased, which is a real fame and profit.
“Boss, don’t worry, we’ll definitely get the job done.” Zhang Dajiang said.
After that, Zhang Dajiang greeted the other chefs and got busy, learning to make various medicinal meals according to the recipes prescribed by Tang Han.
Le Meixuan secretly said to Tang Han, “It’s not appropriate for you to do this, right? Just send out the recipe for the medicinal food?”
