Mou Chuanren's Old Diet Culture in Dalian

The catering industry is so developed, why are there fewer and fewer famous chefs?

Mou Chuanren: The main reason is that the chef is not careful enough, cooking is not diligent enough, and there is no spirit of hardship. When I was a student, I worked in the kitchen for six or seven years. When I could cook, the master didn't teach me. He stole the teacher himself. Old chefs like me teach them by hand, and they don't care much. And young people's basic skills are not solid enough. Two-inch elephant eye mask is the simplest knife method for chefs. Some chefs can't even cut this, don't even know how thin and thick it is, and don't know how to ask.

What's the difference between Dalian old cuisine and other cuisines?

Mou Chuanren: Dalian's old dishes actually originated from Shandong cuisine. It is different from Shandong cuisine in that it pays more attention to the original flavor. Many cooks use many condiments when cooking. But I advocate that only salt, soy sauce, monosodium glutamate, vinegar, sugar and cooking wine should be used, and then they should be prepared by themselves when cooking, so as to ensure the delicious dishes.
