Chapter 818 Winning the Game
Moreover, the presentation of this dish is also very eye-catching. In order to get a higher score, all the small things that Mu Jie brought before were placed on this dish, including small colored lanterns and small noodles.
.
At first glance, it has a strong Chinese style. Although after the display, several other people, including Chen Nian, felt that there were too many elements, but at the same time, they also felt that it was a bit magical, and the more they looked at it, the more interesting it became.
In fact, these customers are indeed attracted by these gadgets.
Then they heard the name of this dish again, and some knowledgeable people told the origin of the dish of Pu Cai in Milk Soup.
"Pu Cai is one of the specialties of Daming Lake, but it is also grown in other places, and this dish is also called Pu Bamboo. This dish had a high reputation as early as the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it is still famous today.
It still exists, and Pucai in milk soup is also a flavor dish from Jinan among the eight major Shandong cuisines.
It’s seasoned with stock, and although it’s called milk soup, it’s actually milky white stock.”
As the man spoke, he took a sip of the soup first, and then continued to praise: "The taste is rich and delicious. It looks like a carefully brewed stock. I feel that it may be beef bones, and the side dishes added are quite good."
It’s very particular, although the ingredients are not that complete, but I guess the ingredients that can be used in the kitchen are limited, and you can’t just use whatever you want.”
As he spoke, he picked up another piece of cattail leaf and nodded after eating it: "The cattail leaf is very tender and crispy in taste, and the color combination is very fresh."
After everyone heard what he said, they couldn't help but follow his actions and taste it.
He drinks soup, and others also drink soup.
He eats vegetables, and others also eat vegetables.
After commenting on the dishes, the man picked up the bread that came with it.
First, he brought it close to the tip of his nose and smelled it: "This bread smells very fragrant. It must have been made by a master who specializes in pastries, and I seem to smell some fruity aroma in it."
As he spoke, he put the bread into the soup and soaked it for two or three seconds before taking it out.
When he took a bite, the crispy baked Chinese bread did not soften immediately after soaking in the soup. Instead, because he ate it in time, it made a slight clicking sound in his mouth.
As soon as you bite into it, the soup contained in the slightly tough bread will flow out, which is warm and delicious.
At the same time, he seemed to taste some fruit flavor in the bread, but it was not that strong.
It's very subtle, but it shows its presence all the time.
Just when he was talking, Beibei had already brought the cameraman to his side with a microphone to listen to his comments.
"To be honest, this dish is a bit beyond my expectation. First of all, the milk soup with pucai is already a very qualified soup dish, and it is very well done.
At first, I was worried that blindly combining Chinese and Western food would have the opposite effect. And after smelling the fruity flavor in the bread, I was also worried that the added fruits would ruin the taste.
But now I find that this chef is really good. Although fruits are used, there is no fruit visible. After dipping the bread into the soup and eating it in your mouth, it is another wonderful feeling.
The umami flavor of the soup dominates, and the fruity flavor seems to be suppressed at that moment. It is not until after eating that you can feel the faint sweetness in your mouth. I think this dish is the best of all the dishes today.
of a piece.”
After the man finished speaking, others nodded.
Although they can’t quite understand what they’re hearing, how about letting people talk a lot?
And it looks very professional.
People follow the crowd. After he finished speaking, others started to eat, as if they had really understood the contents of all his comments.
Everyone nodded with great satisfaction.
Including the guests at other tables also heard this, and when Beibei went to interview again later, they all said different words of praise.
Beibei felt a little greedy when she heard it, but as the host, she couldn't taste it directly.
So after interviewing a few people, she returned to the podium.
At this moment, the chefs from both sides were invited over again.
The scoring forms were handed out as before, and after the customers completed their scores and handed the forms back, the staff tallied the scores, and the chefs began to taste each other's dishes.
This time both sides showed their true skills.
"First of all, there are the fried spring rolls made by the chef of the Italian team. I personally like them better because it combines some of our Chinese cooking methods, but I can't stand the smell of the folded spring rolls in it. If the folded roots can be removed,
, I think this dish is perfect.
But there is nothing we can do about it, just like I don’t want to use preserved eggs, but I have to use them when I get them.”
“Also, their pasta, I feel it’s okay when I eat it. It’s a very authentic Western way of cooking, but there’s still one drawback: there’s too much soup.”
In this round of reviews, Mu Jie told the truth and no longer spoke high-sounding polite words to Xi Ni like before.
Because he felt that only in this round did the other party really become serious.
Looking at Abraham, after having tasted two rounds of Chinese food before, I have a full understanding of the cooking style of Chinese chefs.
"The beef stewed with tomatoes tastes very good and the soup is very rich. It is hard to imagine that they can process the beef in such a short time, because as far as I know, there are some things in the city where we are now due to the air pressure.
Not that familiar.
But this must also be the wisdom of Chinese chefs. I admire this very much, but I think the taste becomes a little weird after adding preserved eggs, and the color is not that beautiful."
Abraham also talked about this issue, but just as Mujie understood him, he could also understand why Mujie did what he did.
There were so many photographers taking pictures there, so of course they couldn't hide this dish secretly.
Since you can't hide it, you can only use it.
Then he started to taste the second dish prepared by the Chinese chef in the third round.
Like those diners, he also took a sip of milk soup with pucai first. The light and rich feeling shocked him, because the soup stock is also made in the West.
And even if this dish of pucai in milk soup was placed in their place, it would still be a perfect dish.
Then he looked at the toast again, but he didn't eat it immediately. Instead, he broke off a small piece with his hands. When he saw that the color inside was slightly yellow, and there was some fruity smell, he just
I understood how Yao Guangbin handled things in the kitchen just now.
"The bread is baked quite well. A piece of bread would cost about eight euros in my restaurant."
After speaking, Abraham soaked the bread in the soup again, took it out and put it in his mouth after a few seconds. The taste was basically the same as the customers just now.
The crust of the bread remains slightly crispy after entering the mouth, and when you bite into it, the soup inside bursts out.
"I have to take back what I said before. I think this dish is more delicious than the previous rice noodles with kumquats."
Mu Jie was watching from the side as Abraham spoke happily. Although he couldn't understand what the other party was saying, he always felt that the other party was praising him.
Finally, the staff also calculated the scores of both sides in this round, as well as the total scores of these three rounds.
“The third round of Chef King Yunnan Station was a fierce competition between the chefs of the Chinese team and the Italian team. Our public judges also gave their final scores for these four dishes in the third round.
In the third round, the Italian team scored 35 points and the Chinese team scored 45 points!"
"The Italian team scored a total of 100 points in the three rounds, and the Chinese team scored a total of 111 points in the three rounds. Now I announce that in this showdown between China and Italy in the Yunnan Station of Chef King, the Chinese team won!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the guests below began to applaud.
Including Abraham applauded after hearing the translation. Now he sincerely admires these Chinese chefs.
In the past, he had always been cooking Western food at his place, and he really didn't have much contact with Chinese food. Unexpectedly, he was given a slap on the wrist when he came here this time.
But even so, he still felt that the last dish he cooked was really amazing.
Not to mention that Chen Nian got along well with them before. Instead of targeting them because this was a home stadium in China and the two sides were competitors, he generously provided rice noodles to them.
After the competition, the chefs from both sides will give speeches, starting with Mujie.
They won the game, and the smile on Mujie's face never stopped.
So when I said it, I also praised the other person very well.
The same goes for Abraham.
Although he lost the game, this time he was convinced that he lost, but even if he lost here, he didn't think he would lose again when he returned to Italy.
Because most of the customers here are Chinese, Chinese chefs understand Chinese people's taste habits better.
After arriving in Italy, the customers became Italians.
There is no way these Chinese people know the tastes of their own country better than themselves.
Even if the difference between the two sides is eleven points now, he feels that he will definitely overtake this score when he returns.
But since they lost the game, they must be punished accordingly.
That is to eat the bugs living in the bowl.
After seeing the bug, everyone in the Italian team put on a mask of pain on their faces.
Finally, Arab Khan let out a long sigh, picked up a piece of worm and threw it into his mouth.
Seeing that the restaurant chef had done this, the others had no choice but to pick up the bugs and throw them into their mouths with their eyes closed, and started eating.
However, Mu Jie is not the kind of person who just likes to have fun. After they had eaten, Mu Jie also brought a bowl with worms from over there. He picked it up and ate one first, and then put the bowl away.
