In my spare time, I discussed recipes with chef Yu Cun, and I was full of emotion, if people didn't eat, it would be good to save a lot of time in their lives!Yu Cun replied: If people don't eat, what desire do they have, what is the meaning of living in the world!
** Finally preaching: People eat to live, and the living must serve the people. This is dialectics!”
Yu Cun is a Sichuan chef who has entertained Nixon and Kakuei Tanaka, and is skilled in culinary arts.
Yu Cun, such a well-known chef, has been a private chef for 14 years since 1962, with a martial arts and no stage to play. He has said many times: "For 14 years, he has not eaten good food in his old age, and when he thinks about it, he regrets it for the rest of his life." ”
This matter is not to blame, because *** set his own recipe too simple: four dishes and one soup, the amount is not much, and many times boiling cereal or roasting three sweet potatoes counts as a meal. The staple food is coarse rice grains, often eat two rice, and sometimes add some lilies, sweet potatoes and the like.
** of four dishes and one soup, except for braised pork is a rotating meat, the rest are vegetables, purslane is a common dish, red pepper is a must-have dish from childhood to old age;The soup is either celery leaf soup or coriander leaf soup.
Yu Cun wanted to change the recipe many times, but he was rejected by ***.
Once, when I was chatting with Yu Cun, I talked about eating. He said: "The food we eat every day is already very good, and if the common people live like this, my heart will be much better." ”
** Since childhood, I have developed a good habit of thrift and thrift, and this is also the case later. Once, **'s rice grains fell on the table, and he used chopsticks to pick them up, but he couldn't hold them, so he glued them with his hands and put them in his mouth. I have also been educating the staff around me: waste is a crime, and we must learn from Zhuge Liang to "cultivate oneself quietly and cultivate virtue through thrift." ”
Another time, ** talked about eating. Xu Tao also told *** foreigners like to eat Chinese food, which can also reduce diseases.
** proudly said: "There are two things in China that have made great contributions to the world, one is traditional Chinese medicine, and the other is Chinese cuisine. ”
**After pondering for a while, he told everyone: China has a lot of land, a lot of treasures, and a lot of land, but there is not much arable land, so you should eat a little less. Eating a vegetarian diet is good for health. Americans have too much fat in their food and are prone to heart disease.
World nutritionists have proposed that in order to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and tumors, "Chinese cuisine" is an ideal and healthy diet.
Yu Cun's house has been hanging a *** swimming in the Yangtze River**, and Yu Cun is behind the chairman. When he swam to the heart of the river, a wave knocked Yu Cun down, and he just pressed on ***, Yu Cun was very embarrassed. But he didn't mind, joking: "I've lived for so many years, and no one has dared to touch me, you're the first", and everyone laughed.
He once said to him, "You have to read some books and learn some knowledge, and when I die, you can find a job." Yu Cun is not highly educated, so he personally taught him literacy and tutored him to study. Once, Yu Cun was punished for not completing the study task.
** often said to people: "Ancient princes bothered to find the elixir of immortality, but in the end they died." He also said: "There is life and there must be death, and no one can escape and resist, this is the law of science." ”
Yu Cun has followed *** for many years and made a request, it turned out that the chef wanted to go abroad with the chairman to open his eyes. In fact, ** only went abroad twice, all of them to the Soviet Union. **After thinking for a while, he said meaningfully to Cun: "Our country is big, in fact, foreign countries are not as round as China's moon, if you really want to go abroad, it will cost a lot of money!."I'll take you along the Yellow River. ”
Yu Cun's desire to go abroad has not been realized when he was alive, and it was not until the 80s that Yu Cun fulfilled his dream of going abroad.
