There is a Liu Chuanhai in Quanjiao, and all the catering circles and chefs in China know Quanjiao. He is an indispensable factor. As a chef, Liu Chuanhai lived a harmonious life with pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. "Different life ideals and attitudes determine a person's position in the battle." This sentence by Paul Wu Yunduo of China inspired Liu Chuanhai. He found his attitude in the ideal of life, and the chef became his firm position in the battle.

See Liu Chuanhai for the first time.

Knowing Liu Chuanhai originated from the "scholar banquet".

It was early winter four years ago, and Mengcheng County held the Zhuangzi Health Food Festival. In many food stalls in the province, the dazzling "scholar banquet" made me approach quickly. The Scholar's Banquet is elegant, gentle, rich in connotation and innovative. Just looking at the name of the banquet makes people feel impatient

? Traditional banquets in China are generally named after utensils, such as "eight or eight seats", "eight or four seats", "five dishes", "eight bowls" and "Sai Qiong Bowl". Or named after the raw materials, such as "barbecue", "whole fish banquet", "whole duck banquet" and "vegetarian banquet"; There are "Confucius Banquet", "Li Banquet" and "Taishou Banquet" named after the official family. Then there is the "Manchu-Chinese banquet" named by the court. "A Dream of Red Mansions Banquet", named after pure cultural design, appeared in modern times and originated from the novel A Dream of Red Mansions, creating a cultural feast.

? The Scholars undoubtedly originated from the novel The Scholars in Qing Dynasty. Who is the "scholar banquet" in front of us? Which hotel? Show such skills?

Liu Chuanhai has a square face and big ears, and is strong and honest. On the round head of the square face, both sides were shaved off, leaving a bulge like snakehead hair in the middle. Because of the hair style, I have been questioned a lot. Moxigan people's comb-shaped heads are cool and full of strings, and they feel a little rebellious. I'm a little worried. How can such a shape create a "scholar banquet"? Later, "Scholar Banquet" participated in the cross-strait cooking competition in Hefei, which increased the image display of sound and light and won the gold medal; His kind smile, vigorous figure and striking hairstyle make me feel more and more cordial.

Nostalgic "Scholar Banquet"

Wu is a pepper man. His History of the Scholars is not only a history of the Scholars, but also a history of local conditions and customs. The living soil in the book is provided by whole pepper. It is not surprising that The Scholars was produced in Quanjiao, but what is strange is Liu Chuanhai. He was born in an ordinary family. After graduating from junior high school, he just wanted to learn a trade to make a living. Later, I got started, studied abroad, studied extensively and opened a shop. Liu Chuanhai, a master of Huizhou cuisine in China, came to the crossroads of life, and the "scholar banquet" became his homesickness. Among the many celebrities he received, he was constantly questioned; Is there a feast of all peppers? The creation of The Scholars drove him to Liangshan.

There are three major problems in the design of The Scholars: one is to restore the Confucian diet described by Wu; Second, the Scholars should be used to control the social life of that year and people's aesthetic and visual aesthetic needs today; Third, a complete cultural heritage is not a patchwork of local dishes.

In order to write The Scholars, I asked Liu Chuanhai how many times he had read The Scholars. He said hundreds of times that among the 298 places where he mentioned food, several copies of The Scholars in front of him were thread-bound, traditional and simplified, and one of them was covered with bars and remarks, folded and worn. Why do you want to watch the traditional version? He said make it feel closer. At first, he ordered 12 cold dishes, 20 dim sum dishes and 48 big dishes on the basis of the "scholar banquet", and constantly invited fellow teachers to choose. After choosing and choosing, it seems that there is a genre painting in front of me. The dishes were cleared, the characters appeared, and the etiquette followed. The clear picture of life seems to be immersive, and the dishes seem to come alive one by one. How to further approach the appreciation taste of contemporary people, he consulted experts in literature and history and gourmets to further integrate tradition with the times. Can traditional food stories, folk food rituals, bitterness and hypocrisy of scholars be in harmony with modern people's diet? Therefore, Liu Chuanhai integrated the eating habits of contemporary people into historical and traditional dishes, making "Confucian banquet" dishes more suitable for people's progressive aesthetic and taste habits. The menu of The Scholars is traditional, and the basis can be found in The Scholars, but the aesthetics embodies the contemporary spirit of the times. While enjoying The Scholars, I seem to have heard Wu's statement that "public interests are above everything else, and disadvantages are pointed out", and I can also feel the happiness of the traditional era. He was shocked when he first entertained an expert with a carefully carved "Confucian banquet". The folk dishes of Quanjiao seem to be pearls strung into necklaces.

The "Confucian banquet" was fixed and the operating standards were formulated. Liu Chuanhai personally explained the allusions and reception customs of each dish to chefs and waiters, and invited experts in literature and history to give lectures to dispel doubts. "If you want customers to enjoy it, you must feel it yourself." Liu Chuanhai was so successful that countless sleepless nights were finally comforted.

After three passes in The Scholars, he regained his confidence in cooking culture from an ordinary chef. He is no longer an ordinary master of Huizhou cuisine, but has become a gourmet creator, designer and master of cooking culture.

Become attached to Fangfang and walk into "Lin Ru Fang Wei"

? On the Spring Festival Evening of 20 18, Fangfang performed the essay "Going Home", telling the story of Quanjiao in her hometown. Quanjiao County invited her home to "go to peace". 20 18 On the 16th day of the first month, Fangfang set foot on the land of Quanjiao in her hometown for the first time and "went to peace" with tens of thousands of people. At noon, Liu Chuanhai was invited to dinner. It is no accident that he became attached to Fangfang. Without his "scholar's banquet", he would not be arranged to receive it that day, so it is natural. Fang Fang ate the bacon, sausage, egg dumplings and meatballs in the "Scholar's Banquet", and her eyes suddenly became moist. He didn't smell like his mother when he was a child for many years. "Scholar banquet" is not only delicious in her mind, but also a kind of homesickness. At this time, Fangfang has sprouted the idea of doing something for her hometown.

? 10 days later, Fangfang found Liu Chuanhai with a group of investors and pointed out that a "scholar banquet" was to be held. In this unusual activity, a loving developer invested nearly 10 million yuan to plan a "book fragrance" for Fangfang. Scholar refers to Liu Chuanhai's Scholar Banquet; The fragrant taste is delicious in Fangfang's eyes. The Scholars finally decided on 12 dishes and made a 12 food documentary. Quanjiao County Government fully cooperated to introduce Quanjiao local cuisine in a classic way, integrating mountains, rivers, products, people and vegetables. Hosted by Zhou Qun and Fangfang of Anhui TV Station, the Quanjiao Confucius Banquet is like a wonderful flower in a hundred gardens. In the film, Liu Chuanhai stirs up the girder, waving pots and pans, with vigorous skills and smooth movements, which not only makes food and animals beautiful, but also makes people particularly beautiful. 20 19165438+1October19 "Scholar Flavor" was broadcast on Los Angeles City TV Station. As a Sino-American film festival, 20 tables of The Scholars were put on that day, which caused a sensation among Chinese. Liu Chuanhai and his The Scholars appeared on the overseas stage as China. Without Liu Chuanhai and Fang Fang, The Scholars would hardly shine.

? The Scholars brings Liu Chuanhai and Fang Fang closer and closer. Liu Chuanhai is a real person in Fang Fang's eyes. They added WeChat to each other and often talked about food and family. Fangfang said that the "scholar banquet" is her feelings of going home, and it is a faint homesickness.

Take care of yourself.

In Liu Chuanhai's study, he wrote a song "Awakening Song" by a famous monk (Quanjiao Man) in Deqing in Ming Dynasty, which attracted my special attention. Since he/kloc-founded Quanjiao People's Farm 0/4 years ago, The Song of Awakening the World has been with him. He believes that cooking is a kind of culture, an art and a science, and the landscape and people of Quanjiao inspire his feelings of patriotism and love for his hometown. Self-cultivation and learning calligraphy have become Liu Chuanhai's greatest hobbies in his spare time, and Mr. Qin, a calligrapher of Quanjiao, has also become his old father. In "Awakening the World", "accepting ups and downs" became his attitude towards catering, friends and life, and songs such as "following fate", "calming nature" and "fairness and integrity" constantly cultivated his sentiment.

In order to study art, Liu Chuanhai went to Huzhou, Zhejiang Province as an apprentice for three years when he was 18 years old and returned to his hometown for six years. With the ambition of "endless learning", he went to Yangzhou to learn from Chen (a famous culinary master in China who once represented China in Hongkong, the United States, Thailand and Japan). They hit it off like father and son. Under the guidance of the master, Liu Chuanhai's skills have greatly improved, and Liu Chuanhai's cooking has now entered a new milestone. Later, Liu Chuanhai worshipped Jiao Fu, a master of Huizhou cuisine, and his foundation became more and more solid. He traveled to Liaoning, Jilin and Heilongjiang in the north, Sichuan, Xi and Taiyuan in the west, and Guangzhou and Nanning in the south, making extensive friends. At this time, Liu Chuanhai has built a tall building overlooking the cabbage, laying a solid foundation for innovation.

In the process of learning art, practicing skills, learning from teachers and making friends, Liu Chuanhai has always been full of enthusiasm. His ups and downs are unknown to outsiders. He respects teachers and is strict with himself. He is also a teacher and friend of his peers. Elected President of Quanjiao Catering and Cooking Industry Association. With the people in his heart and his hometown in his heart, Liu Chuanhai founded the "People's Farm", opened a shop for the people and named it after them. As the inheritor of county-level intangible cultural heritage, his model and introduction of The Scholars are displayed in Wu's former residence, which is rare in the chef world.

? Walking out of Wu's former residence, I walked to People's Farm, recalling the image of Liu Chuanhai cooking in the movie The Scholars. He is no different from an ordinary chef, except that he practices hard all the way!
