Chapter 171 Chicken Sauce White Fish
"What's going on with those things in front of him?" Gu Pingping asked in confusion.
"I guess he's just practicing. Judging from his appearance, I guess it's his first time making Yangzhou fried rice." He Jianmin murmured in a low voice.
"Then this talent is pretty good. I have become so confident after practicing a few dishes. The rest seems to be poured directly into the pot." Yang Tan sighed as he looked at a pot full of Yangzhou fried rice.
"Looking at the color, it looks a bit like it. Let's taste it first before talking about it." Huang Sheng scooped up a spoonful and put it into his mouth.
Fragrant and glutinous, salty and fresh.
The various ingredients are mixed together in a particularly harmonious way. The rice grains are distinct but evenly mixed with the side dishes. Every bite is full of deliciousness. After tasting it carefully, you can also feel the crispy and delicious duck gizzards and shrimps.
"It tastes good." Huang Sheng nodded with satisfaction.
"It's not bad." Yang Tan, as a white man, often eats Yangzhou fried rice. It's rare to be able to say such a good thing.
"Did he really not know how to Yangzhou fried rice before?" He Jianmin was still struggling with this point.
"Bring over the dishes he made before and have a look." Xue Yi arranged.
Within a few minutes, Su Zi put the previous plates of fried rice on the table and were brought to the judges' table.
"Eh!" Gu Pingping took a taste and put down his spoon in disgust.
"Provoke." Huang Sheng looked embarrassed.
After tasting it, Yang Tan decided to change the topic: "It's great to have made so much progress in a short period of time."
"But the taste is a bit worse than Master Du's." He Jianmin replied.
"How old is he? Compared with Master Du?" Gu Ping rolled his eyes at He Jianmin and said: "Everyone who has eaten Master Du's Yangzhou fried rice is full of praise. It is a unique skill that is on par with tofu. Besides, you guys cut it like this.
If you don’t even prepare sea cucumbers, how can it taste that way?”
"It only takes half a day to give him sea cucumbers. Will he be happy?" He Jianmin replied angrily: "Hey, do you think that little girl can make Yangzhou fried rice?"
He Jianmin didn't say his name, but everyone knew he was talking about Zhang Zidan.
"Probably...no way? After all, it's difficult to master one of Master Du's dishes, let alone two." Yang Tan guessed.
"Is it okay to ask alone when the time comes? Let's give the score first." Huang Sheng simply wrote down his score.
Several judges looked at each other and after some discussion announced Su Zifang's score.
8.8 points, a decent performance, neither bad nor very good.
Su Zifang looked at the score and expressed his satisfaction. After all, he only spent one night studying Yangzhou fried rice. To get such a high score was considered a blessing by the system. As a human being, you must be content.
"Didn't he score 9.7 points in the last game? Why is he so easily satisfied?" Huang Sheng showed an expression of hatred for steel.
"Have you ever gone to school?" Yang Tan asked.
"What do you mean?" Huang Sheng turned his head and asked.
"The subject you're least good at was told to take the exam the next day, and you actually got 88 points in the exam after reviewing for one night. How do you feel?" Yang Tan analyzed philosophically.
Huang Sheng:……
He actually really understood Su Zifang's mentality at this moment!
While the judges were chatting, Zhao Xiaoman's food was also brought to the table.
"White fish in chicken sauce? This is the first time I've eaten this shape. It looks pretty good." He Jianmin knew that this dish was the signature dish of Jingling Food Stall, but he usually eats it steamed flat.
It doesn't have such an exquisite shape, so it's a bit novel for a while.
As a girl, the dishes made by Zhao Xiaoman are naturally exquisite.
There is a layer of bright yellow oil on the bottom of the mackerel plate. The aroma of the oil is mixed with the smell of chicken soup, and the aroma is fragrant. A white fish (Qiaozui Ni) is cut open from the bottom of the fish head along the belly, the back of the fish is arched, and the mouth is
It is also garnished with a cherry, ginger slices and green onions neatly arranged, and one look at it will make you think of something delicious.
Unlike Su Zifang who had to check information in advance, Zhao Xiaoman lives in Jingling and has eaten this famous Jingling dish more than once. Before he passed the hurdle of practicing cooking, he had already simulated it in his mind.
Many times, I came up with no fewer than five improvement plans. I finally had the opportunity to practice, so naturally I didn't hold anything back.
The large white fish provided by the organizing committee had been raised for enough time to spit out the sediment. Zhao Xiaoman took the fish, opened it, cleaned it, and directly added onions, ginger, and pepper to boil water and then mixed it into salt water to marinate.
The recipe of chicken fat was modified by Zhao Xiaoman based on the taste of Jingling food stalls. The chicken fat cubes are added with sand ginger and carrots to make a golden and translucent oil juice. This kind of chicken fat juice will bring the aroma of sand ginger and lack the aroma of sand ginger.
It's a bit spicy and goes well with fish.
The marinated fish is blown dry with a fan and steamed in a pot. In order to make the fish taste delicious, Zhao Xiaoman specially uses stock as the soup base. After it boils, it is steamed over high heat for eight minutes and immediately served on the plate.
"It's still a bit steamed. If it were a few dozen seconds shorter, it would be fresher! You have to pay attention to the time next time." Zhao Xiaoman was still a little annoyed when he saw the staff walking away with the plates.
When Zhao Xiaoman blamed himself, the judges on the stage had already put down their chopsticks.
"It's very delicious. It's even better than the food at the Jingling food stalls. Steaming the fish in chicken soup doesn't affect the original taste of the white fish. This technique is not simple. If the people at the Jingling food stalls know about it, I'm afraid they will have to pay a high price."
Come buy this recipe." He Jianmin nodded.
"Not bad." Gu Pingping cherished words like gold.
"I think it's great to have such ability at this age. In terms of potential, she may be the highest in this cooking competition. I have to say that his father has a good daughter." Huang Sheng did not talk about cooking, but praised Zhao Xiaoman.
.
"Hey, the cold-faced Master Huang actually wants to take on a disciple?" He Jianmin said jokingly.
"When you see a good young man and want to take him on as a disciple, what's the problem?" Huang Sheng rarely said more, and He Jianmin was stunned and retorted: "Then you have to be willing to become a disciple!"
"I heard that she works as a water table in Old Apprentice Xue's shop. Why don't I go back to Jingling and take a look around?"
He Jianmin had nothing to say for a moment. He was just teasing. Who would have thought that Huang Sheng kept talking about wanting, but actually he had already found out the good news and made a plan to recruit a disciple.
All I can say is that I can’t afford to offend him, because ginger is still spicy!
The episode of recruiting a disciple is over, and the score of Zhao Xiaoman’s white fish with chicken sauce is also announced - 9.0 points.
Slightly higher than Su Zifang, worthy of an intermediate chef.
Su Zifang was very pleased with Zhao Xiaoman's score, even happier than himself getting 9.7 points!
After all, the Wensi Tofu test was still difficult to pass, and the road to the intermediate level was long. Su Zifang felt that he should be the inheritor of the worst food system in the world.
Not only do they not have high-priced dishes, they also have high loans, and they don’t even have a high-end cuisine.
Finally, Zhao Xi came out and commissioned a dish of ginseng chicken, but Zhao Xiaoman, who did not eat oil or salt, made him understand what the world is not worth.
In Shibuya, no matter what method he used, Zhao Xiaoman just didn't want to touch the cooking table. He thought that she came to Guanglin just to watch the fun, but he didn't expect that he actually started to show his strength.
"This score should be enough to complete Zhao Xi's mission!"
When he thought about getting the ginseng chicken dish soon, Su Zifang suddenly felt that he was getting lucky, and his mood improved a lot. When he saw Zhao Xiaoman, he was even more enthusiastic than before.
"Congratulations, take a break and come on!"
"Well..." Zhao Xiaoman frowned and looked at Su Zifang cautiously.
Chapter completed!
