When Kong Baimo’s dishes are served, they don’t need too much introduction.

After opening the lid, anyone who can see it will know the name of this dish.

The ultimate expression of Shandong cuisine - nine-turn large intestine!

This dish was created at the Jiuhualou Hotel in Quancheng during the early years of Guangxu’s reign in the Qing Dynasty.

It was originally called Braised Large Intestine. After many improvements to improve the taste, it was liked by many literati. In order to enhance the appeal of this dish, the dish was renamed Nine Turns Large Intestine based on the allusion of Nine Turns Golden Elixir.

It has been passed down to this day.

It is the most famous and classic dish of Shandong cuisine.

This dish is not easy to make and the process is very complicated. Very few people can make it at home, so it has always been a popular dish in Shandong cuisine restaurants.

Whether it is a wedding banquet or a dinner party, this dish is almost always a must-order.

Its specific status in Shandong cuisine is comparable to the boiled dry shredded noodles in Huaiyang Restaurant. It is a dish that requires a chef's basic skills.

Kong Baimo brought up this plate of nine-turn large intestine. From the appearance, there was nothing wrong with it.

But... what everyone is more curious about now is what question he got, and how he was so lucky to be able to directly serve a dish without having to change it.

You know, even Mapo Tofu uses different creativity.

If Kong Baimo could draw someone who didn't even need to update his creativity, he would definitely be jealous.

At this time, Kong Baimo handed over the question paper, and everyone finally saw it clearly.

“Giblets, beans, rich flavor.”

As soon as this topic came out, everyone lamented Kong Baimo's luck.

I don’t know how many old ladies I had to help cross the street in my previous life to get this question back.

You know, Su Zi asked several of them to come up with similar scenes and dishes, and almost racked their brains before finally passing the test.

If it were as simple as Kong Baimo, I'm afraid they would all laugh out loud while cooking.

But there was still one doubt that troubled them.

"bean?"

Beans are not used anywhere in the dish of Jiuzuan Large Intestine, but looking at the dishes made by Kong Baimo, it doesn't seem like beans are included in them.

Several thoughts flashed through his mind, but were driven out of Su Zifang's mind.

Even he couldn't add beans directly to the Nine Rotations Large Intestine, and Kong Baimo certainly wouldn't do it.

But there are only so many kinds of beans that can be thought of. If you don’t add beans directly, is there any way to incorporate them into this dish?

After being stunned for a moment, Su Zi glanced at Kong Baimo's cooking table. There was a soymilk machine on it that caught his attention.

You must know that for Su Zifang, soy milk is almost a kitchen utensil that has accompanied him for most of his career as a chef.

Now just looking at that soy milk machine, Su Zifang can clearly tell its model, manufacturer, price, the proportion of raw materials and the time used to make the soy milk...

Of course, the most important thing is that he knows what can be done with soy milk!

After thinking about it, he instantly understood how Kong Baimo integrated the beans into the Nine Rotations Large Intestine.

Moreover, Zhao Xiaoman also used this method when making Jiuzhuan Fu Sausage!

Beside, Ma Jinglun took a look and whispered: "Vegetarian chicken!"

Several other chefs also suddenly realized.

"I see!"

Vegetarian chicken is a classic traditional soy food that can be traced back to the era of Emperor Wu of Liang.

At that time, Emperor Wu of Liang believed in Buddhism and replaced meat with vegetarian chicken. Since then, it has spread among the people and is distributed throughout China. It is a famous vegetarian food that imitates meat.

Until now, many vegetarian restaurants use vegetarian chicken to make imitation meat dishes.

Several people looked at the plates that Kong Baimo brought up. Some of them indeed looked different from the others. They were probably imitation large intestines made from hollowed-out vegetarian chickens.

The judges took one look and nodded in approval, but did not move their chopsticks first. Instead, they looked at Ren Jiahua.

"Mr. Ren, can you tell me about this dish first?"

When several people in the audience saw this situation, they noticed that this was obviously a rhythm that could be eaten, and they immediately became concerned.

Ren Jiahua smiled lightly, did not refuse, picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth.

It’s a serious large intestine!

The casings are crispy and have a caramel flavor. When you bite into them, the outside is charred and the inside is tender. The inside of the intestine wall has absorbed enough soup, and the texture is soft but not melt-in-your-mouth.

It's the kind of tendons with a little bit of rebound, and there's a little bit of reluctance between the bites of the lips and teeth, but it's not too tough.

It's the kind of taste where if you add one point more, it will be rotten, and if you take one point less, it will be tough.

Just watching Ren Jiahua taste it, Su Zi made everyone's saliva secretion speed up several minutes.

In addition, the nine-turn large intestine itself is a heavy-flavored dish, which contains oyster sauce, light soy sauce, soup color, pepper, cinnamon powder, and Amomum villosum powder.

The chefs' sense of smell is more sensitive, and now every breath is filled with the fragrance of the nine-turn large intestine.

It actually made them want to take a bite.

Ren Jiahua took a bite leisurely and then took a bite of a piece of imitation large intestine made from vegetarian chicken.

It's equally juicy and chewy, with a perfect chewy texture, and the carving technique is used to make the inside taste the same as the intestines.

It can almost look fake!

"good!"

After hearing Ren Jiahua's comments, the other judges quickly moved their chopsticks to taste this rare delicacy.

Ren Jiahua then looked at Kong Baimo with a smile.

"How much do you think you have learned about your master's cooking?"

Su Zifang recalled the relationship Ma Jiang said.

Kong Baimo is Kong Yan's cousin, and his master is Kong Yixian. Kong Yixian is Kong Zhengming's junior brother, and his famous dish is the nine-turn large intestine.

Suddenly, I felt like I was watching a version of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" where the heirs of the Confucius family struggled in the kitchen.

Just as he cleared his mind, he heard Kong Baimo reply: "Three points."

Um?

This answer really shocked everyone else, including the chefs in the audience including Su Zi, who all looked at Kong Baimo blankly.

Generally speaking, in this situation where there is a teacher-student relationship, it is about eight or nine points.

What is even less likely is to learn eleven points or twelve points, and it is better to be better than the master.

It is really unheard of for someone like Kong Baimo to speak so directly.

The judges' bench suddenly became quiet. They looked at Kong Baimo and asked, "Why three points?"

Kong Baimo looked at the nine-turn large intestine on the table and explained calmly.

"Because the master is relatively fixed, he will try his best to use the same standard ingredients. If there are no suitable ingredients that day, he will not make the dish."

"And I felt that this went against a chef's true nature, so there was a disagreement."

"Later I improved his method and changed the method of cooking the large intestine to steaming."

"It can further retain the taste and toughness of the large intestine while removing the flavor, and melt some of the fat and oil, reducing the inability to cook due to the large intestine."

"Because it is steamed instead of boiled, many subsequent processes have also changed."

"It's completely different from what my master taught me, so I said I only learned a third of this dish from my master."

After answering, he looked at the judges and added the last sentence.

"But I think the Nine Turns Large Intestine I made is no worse than what my master made!"
