"Quick, taste this boiled cabbage in hot water!" As soon as the waiter left, they couldn't wait and looked at Zhou Chao, eager to see his expression after he tasted it.
Boiled cabbage in hot water was one of the Sichuan dishes Zhou Chao had been wanting to try, followed closely by mapo tofu.
As a national banquet essential, the preparation of boiled cabbage in hot water was quite intricate. It was made from the hearts of large cabbages from the north, simmered with chicken, duck, and spare ribs, seasoned with chicken and pork broth, and finally garnished with a bit of chicken oil when serving. That's how boiled cabbage in hot water was made!
It might seem simple, but all these processes took several hours. A slight mistake in the broth could result in it not being clear and transparent, so the quality of the broth was crucial!
Zhou Chao looked at the teacup in front of him, gently lifted the lid, and a rich fragrance immediately wafted out.
