Chapter 053
Su Lan has never seen a vegetable with such a perfect appearance. The first half of the lettuce is extremely green and extremely tender, and it shows a perfect gradient color towards the roots. It only turns into a white rhizome when it is almost two centimeters from the roots. The whole piece is not only big enough, but also not dispersed at all. It looks great.
The red color of cherry tomatoes, the slightly gradual color of tomatoes, and the full and flawless body shape, makes people wonder if it is a waxy sample, otherwise how could it be so uniform and perfect?
Broccoli, onions, and cabbage also look impeccable, and even looks better than the ingredients you imported.
Su Lan's originally somewhat contemptuous attitude immediately changed a lot. She really wanted to taste the vegetables brought by Chen Wenhao. They looked so perfect and the taste should not be too bad, right? But it is hard to say that vegetables with too good quality are generally inseparable from fertilizers, hormones and pesticides. If they were not organic food, no matter how good the quality was, Shilin Group's restaurant would not use them.
Moreover, Su Lan felt that these vegetables were samples brought by Chen Wenhao. Judging from her experience, in order to negotiate a business, the quality of the samples was not only the best, but also likely to have been secretly processed and modified. I am afraid that I can't even see the quality of them myself, and I have to let my stunt chefs judge it.
A group of special chefs raised by Shilin Group will not appear in the kitchen of any store. The task of these special chefs is to stay in the R&D center and rack their brains to think about various dishes and ingredients, and improve them.
They are real diet experts, with extremely profound research and sensitivity to ingredients. They can even taste any kind of fertilizer on a lettuce. Any ingredient that has been used to make hands and feet will definitely be exposed in front of them. There have been countless overseas companies trying to sell domestic ingredients to themselves as imported ingredients, but all the people with ulterior motives have been discovered and none of them succeeded.
After a while, five special chefs wearing chef clothes walked in one after another. After Su Lan greeted them one by one, he said to the five people: "Please come here temporarily, just hope everyone can identify the ingredients samples taken by Mr. Chen. I saw that the quality of these ingredients is very good and perfect. As for the actual quality, it depends on your professional judgment."
The five super chefs all turned their eyes to the eight plates on the table, and when they saw them, they all looked surprised.
These five people are absolutely senior experts in the chef industry and have extensive knowledge. However, the appearance and appearance of the eight fruits and vegetables are so perfect, which is the first time they have seen each other.
The five people immediately walked forward and observed carefully. Some people picked a piece of lettuce leaf, some people rubbed the buds at the top from the broccoli, and some people picked up a cherry tomato.
The five of them took turns to watch for a long time. Chen Wenhao was a little anxious from the side and couldn't help but say, "If you are interested, you can try it. My fruits and vegetables are organic vegetables without chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and can be eaten directly."
One of the super chefs frowned and asked, "Young man, I'm afraid that you can't grow such good vegetables with ordinary organic fertilizers?"
The person who spoke was an old chef about fifty years old. His name was Li Yuanhua. He was an overseas Chinese. He has been engaged in the Western food field for 30 years. He was hired by Shilin Group from overseas. He is also the oldest and most experienced chef among all these special chefs.
Li Yuanhua has his own opinion. The main reason why organic vegetables are expensive is that they are laborious to plant and cannot use pesticides. It takes a lot of effort to prevent insects and damage. If you cannot use fertilizers, you need to put more effort and money into organic fertilizers. Moreover, the fertility of organic fertilizers is not enough, which is far worse than that of fertilizers. Therefore, the yield per mu of organic crops is much lower than that of ordinary crops.
This also gives organic vegetables a very prominent feature: they are generally not big in size, but generally have poor appearance.
Chen Wenhao's vegetables are exactly the opposite of organic vegetables, so he immediately determined that although these vegetables are of perfect quality, they are definitely not pollution-free foods.
Faced with Li Yuanhua's doubts, Chen Wenhao smiled calmly and said, "Old sir, I'm going to tell you that organic fertilizers really can't grow vegetables like me."
When Li Yuanhua heard this, he couldn't help but snorted with smugness and contempt, and his expression seemed to be saying: I can't hide it from me at all, I'm very confident.
The expressions of the four chefs around were basically the same, and they should be the same as Li Yuanhua thought.
Su Lan's expression was a little unfavorable.
Master Li was indeed not simple. He asked in one sentence that these are not organic foods. What is Hu Jing joking about herself? When did Shilin Group use non-pollution-free ingredients? Food ingredients are related to Shilin Group's reputation!
Su Lan's face was gloomy and she thought Chen Wenhao was here to make things difficult for him, but she didn't expect that Chen Wenhao added with a smile on his face.
"However, I can't grow vegetables like me, either. These vegetables are excellent varieties I have cultivated myself, and they have grown in the fertile land at the foot of Huinan Mountain. Not to mention fertilizer, even organic fertilizers, I have never used them."
"This is impossible!" Li Yuanhua immediately shook his head and said with a firm look on his face: "No fertilizer, you will definitely not grow such vegetables!"
Chen Wenhao didn't want to argue with the old man, so he said, "You can try it, whether the vegetables are good or not. Experts like you will definitely be able to taste it at once."
What Chen Wenhao didn't expect was that Li Yuanhua was indeed an absolute old stubborn man. He didn't take Chen Wenhao's words seriously at all. He just hummed and said disdainfully: "I can conclude without trying it!"
Seeing that the other party was so stubborn and confident, Chen Wenhao had no choice but to look at the other four super chefs and said, "You four may as well try it."
Unexpectedly, Li Yuanhua snorted again at this time, looked at Chen Wenhao contemptuously, and said, "I said, you can conclude that your vegetables are dirty things made of fertilizers and hormones and pesticides. They can't get into my eyes and mouth, and they will definitely not get into our Shilin Group's kitchen!"
Chen Wenhao held it back and forth, but unexpectedly, Li Yuanhua pressed step by step, and his words became more and more aggressive. Chen Wenhao's face couldn't help but look a little ugly, and he said coldly: "Master, you are so confident, aren't you afraid that you will take a look at it?"
"Impossible!" Li Yuanhua waved his hand and said impatiently: "I'm so arrogant, I don't want to talk nonsense to you here."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Su Lan and said, "Mr. Su, if there is nothing wrong, I want to go back and continue to develop new dishes. You must not waste time with such people."
Su Lan naturally believed more about the old chef who carried the tripod here. Just as he was about to nod, Chen Wenhao suddenly pointed to the pile of equipment on the test bench and spoke to Su Lan:
