Summer Food Charm: Fu Yueliang's Summer Poetry
This summer, Chef Fu Yueliang and Ms. Iris, together with their team, present a lively and elegant summer taste with the theme of "Summer Food Charm". In the menu, the seasonal and elegant Jiangnan scenery blends with the summer charm of a foreign land far away from the mountains and seas. On the deep roots of local water and soil, it sucks nutrients from other places, and the spirit of "eating in season" sprouts new branches from the old roots.
"Qingliangfeng Stone Bamboo Shoots" debuts, ten kilograms of fresh bamboo shoots can produce one kilogram of dried, condensing the essence of "wild, clear, fresh, and crisp", which is a natural delicacy to relieve summer heat and stimulate appetite. "Sauced Dalian Two-Head Abalone" is based on the surging texture of fresh abalone, and uses precise heat and Hangzhou-style sauce to achieve a quartet of "elastic, tender, fresh, and glutinous". Tradition is reborn in innovation. The "crispy skin and soft stinky tofu" has a crispy skin like a thin shell, and the inside is soft and juicy like a soft heart, perfectly unifying the fermented flavor and taste level. The "West Lake Lotus Root and East China Sea Squid" is not only a combination of ingredients, but also a collision of cultural symbols - the generosity of the ocean meets the elegance of lotus root, and a delicate balance is achieved between salty sweetness and crispness, with a far-reaching artistic conception. The "Tianmu Water Duck Lychee Soup" is well versed in the way of summer health preservation. With water duck nourishing yin as the base and lychee warming yang as the blending, it has achieved a delicious and nourishing classic medicinal diet. The highly anticipated "74 West Lake Vinegar Fish" uses grass carp from the source of Qianjiang River in Kaihua, Zhejiang this summer. Kaihua grass carp, born in green mountains and clear waters and cold and flowing water, has lake freshness without mud taste. The whole fish is deboned and boned with complicated techniques, allowing diners to enjoy the deliciousness without fear of fish bones, which not only demonstrates the exquisiteness of traditional techniques, but also conveys respect for local high-quality ingredients. How can you miss the soup dumplings that can be called works of art? "Emerald Sponge Gourd Soup Dumpling" is the epitome of this summer's customs. It also requires "lifting gently, moving slowly, opening the window first, then drinking the soup", but the tip of the tongue lingers with the refreshing and summer sweetness brought by the sponge gourd. The finale is the "Gold Medal Braised Pork Summer" hidden deep in my heart. This classic dish that accompanied the grand feast of childhood is now reproduced in a more refined form. In response to the season, the filling of the tower is replaced with lily, which is sweet and glutinous in summer, and it achieves a wonderful balance with the fat of braised pork, and is garnished with a few smoked sweet beans. The satisfaction and happiness are hard to describe in words.
The lotus wind leads the way, and the star wish is tasted for the first time; the lychee fragrance moisturizes, and the fireflies illuminate the wish. The summer banquet in Ruyuan is a harmony of customs and craftsmanship, and it is also the most elegant poem dedicated to summer.
