The digital display board on Li Xiao's workbench jumped a few times, and then the number changed from 66 to an eye-catching 106.
There were many people in the examination room, all paying attention to the last result of Li Xiao, the dark horse.
When the judges started to taste the food, everyone had already focused their attention on the No. 26 workbench, so as soon as the results came out, there was an exclamation in the venue.
"Shall I go to 106 points?"
"This record is probably unprecedented."
"Indeed, I have never seen anyone's score exceed 100 points!"
"This is too outrageous, 100% there is an inside story!"
"I remember that the total score of the first place in the last session was only 96, which is a whole higher score than the one in the previous session!"
"It's impossible. All 10 judges actually gave full marks to the last item. This is impossible!"
"There is definitely a shady story. I am complaining. This is so unfair!"
"Yes, I apply for review!"
"Yes, I also support review!"
Hearing the commotion in the venue, Cai Rongsheng, who originally had a smile on his face, immediately frowned.
Seeing him lowering his head and thinking, the host next to him didn't dare to interrupt.
But facing the excited candidates, he held the microphone and felt a little at a loss.
Just when the host was about to cry, Cai Rongsheng stood up from his seat, took the microphone from the host's hand, patted it gently, and said seriously:
"First of all, insider trading is impossible and will not occur in our association."
"All 10-member judging panels are randomly arranged by the computer system on that day."
After hearing Cai Rongsheng's feeble explanation, the venue immediately started to become noisy again.
Cai Rongsheng didn't hesitate when he saw this, and slapped the microphone heavily with his big, wrinkled hands.
A piercing chirping immediately came from the speakers at the venue. Everyone subconsciously covered their ears and stopped opening their mouths.
"Since everyone thinks there is something wrong with this exam, the vice chairman and I will review it now. In addition, we will randomly invite three candidates who have completed the exam."
He glanced at the tablet in his hand, which showed the numbers of those candidates who had completed the exam.
"No. 3, No. 25, No. 67."
Cai Rongsheng took the vice president and immediately rushed to Li Xiao's workbench.
The three candidates who were named also left their workstations and came to Li Xiao's side.
Looking at the messy scene of cups and plates, Cai Rongsheng raised his eyebrows.
When he was young, he also participated in the selection of star chefs many times.
I clearly understand that being a judge is not an easy task.
In the eyes of outsiders, perhaps participating in this kind of high-level chef competition is a kind of enjoyment.
This sentence is actually both true and false, because even if there is a large number of judges to share the work, the amount of food each judge needs to taste is still very large.
Moreover, since the candidates come from all over the world, there is no precise menu for the dishes they prepare, which causes the stomach to be stimulated by the various flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy.
This resulted in the judges' tongues feeling numb at the end of the meal.
It's not even easy to tell carefully whether the food you eat is delicious or not.
Therefore, the judges will not only taste every dish on the table, some will only take one bite, and some will only take two or three bites.
Moreover, most of those who take two or three bites have too complex flavors and too many layers, so they need to taste carefully before taking two more bites.
So when Cai Rongsheng saw the few dishes left on workbench No. 26, he immediately understood why the judges gave such a perfect score.
Since only 10 servings of glass prawn balls were made, they could only taste 7 dishes, but this did not have a big impact.
Although the 10 judges were very dissatisfied with their professionalism being questioned.
But the chairman was here, and it was hard for them to say anything.
After all, a score of 10 perfect points is indeed a bit exaggerated.
If they themselves saw someone giving such a score, they might also have doubts.
Since they were coming for a re-examination, they didn't have any worries. After all, they were not afraid of slanting shadows.
Many candidates who could stop their hands gathered around. They didn't believe in their hearts that anyone could get such a perfect score.
Especially for those candidates who have already completed the exam, most scores hover around 30-35 points.
This made them even more dissatisfied. How could a little-known boy stand on top of all of them?
In full view of the public, five people began the reexamination work.
In fact, the so-called review is just like the judges just now, tasting every dish carefully.
Then score on the tablet, and finally get the total score of the entire dish after eating.
Li Bingsheng looked at the messy scene of cups and plates approaching, and the chopsticks stretched out in the air were a little stiff.
He turned to look at his work table, where most of the dishes were left.
His whole body felt a little bad, but his finishing speed was much faster than Li Xiao's.
After all, there are a lot of star chefs in the family, and they are still very proficient in some tips for exams.
One of the most important tips is to try to avoid dishes that have been marinated for too long.
Especially in competitions like the One-Star Exam where there are a huge number of candidates, the slower you finish, the greater your disadvantage.
Therefore, the dishes he selected were all dishes that took a short time to prepare, so they were completed very quickly.
But even so, the judges didn't taste too much, they just started scoring after a brief taste.
Although his score is also very high, he scored a full 38 points, only two points short of a full score.
But his mind immediately rang with what the judges had just said to him in the knife-making project.
Candidate No. 16 can get 10 points because the total score is only 10 points.
It is possible to apply that sentence to the present.
That is, the reason why Li Xiao was able to score 40 points was because the total score was only 40 points, not because he only had 40 points.
After all, seeing this scene in front of you, you can tell how satisfied the judges are with this set of dishes.
He took a deep breath and stabilized his Taoist mind, which was on the verge of collapse.
He picked up a piece of winter melon and scallops with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
!!!
Fresh! Sweet!
The moment the tongue comes into contact with food, all the taste buds on the tongue that can accept sweetness are forcibly pried open.
He felt that the pores on his body stood up, and the winter melon was full of the fresh and sweet taste of the original shellfish.
If it weren't for the huge difference in taste between scallops and winter melon, he would even feel that he was eating scallops instead of a piece of winter melon.
The texture of winter melon is very soft, and it melts in your mouth when you chew it gently, without a trace of fiber.
When you bite open the scallops with your teeth, the sweet juice contained in the scallops immediately pours out.
At this time, Li Bingsheng no longer had many other thoughts in his mind, and all his attention was focused on the food in his mouth.
He swallowed the food in his mouth with dull eyes, and when he was about to pick up another piece, he found that the food in the winter melon cup was already empty.
His eyes widened as he understood what a perfect score meant to a chef.
This means that even a person like him, who has some grudges to begin with, cannot find even a trace of fault when he tastes it.
He smiled bitterly and reached for other dishes with his chopsticks.
Barbecued pork, the most common barbecued pork, becomes unattainable after simply being smoked.
The taste of the eight-treasure rice is even more explosive, and the golden rice grains are actually the essence of the eight-treasure rice.
As soon as you bite into it, the juice inside overflows and merges with the already fragrant rice.
The taste and texture are intoxicating.
The salted egg Huang Jinhua ham is the most salty among all the dishes in my opinion, even a little on the heavy side.
After all, ham and salted egg yolk are both salty, but precisely because they are salty, they have a strong stamina and a long aftertaste.
The more you chew the ham in your mouth, the more fragrant it becomes, and the more you chew it, the stronger the flavor becomes.
