Li Xiao smiled and chatted with the audience for a few words, but did not pick up the topic about the star chef competition.
Although after the game, Li Xiao received an apology from Mr. Cai Rongsheng and the vice chairman whose name he had forgotten.
But he really couldn't forgive the Chefs Association.
After all, this is blatant cheating, and I don’t want to get the ranking.
In fact, their ten judges only deducted a few points from him, so that he would get the lowest promotion result, and he might still think it was okay.
After all, being able to obtain a four-star certification actually exceeded his expectations.
However, he clearly has the ability to advance, but he was abruptly evaluated as last place by them, which is a bit disgusting.
He shook his head and threw these unhappy things behind him.
He always had a strong premonition that one day he would get rid of all the judges who deliberately disgusted him and get back what belonged to him.
Attention returned, Li Xiao and the old man were polite, then picked up the spoon and scooped up a spoonful of pork belly soup.
When the pork belly soup was put into his mouth, a burning sensation spread across his taste buds.
Spicy is not the burning spiciness of chili peppers.
Instead, it has a mild spiciness composed of black pepper and purple ginger, because the slightly sweet barley and yam are added to the soup, making this warm spiciness more comfortable.
The flavor of the pork belly is not very strong, probably because I am afraid that cooking it for too long will cause the guanine in the soup to spike sharply.
Pork belly should be boiled before being boiled with water before making soup.
The strong fishy smell of pork belly is almost undetectable, and the taste is also very strange.
Logically speaking, if pork belly is not simmered for a long time, it will lead to a certain result.
That is because the toughness is too strong, and ordinary people cannot bite it, let alone the elderly.
Although it is such a high-end place, the number of customers eating soup dregs is definitely very small.
But the chef carefully thinks of all possibilities, and will make every part of the dish perfect as long as there is a chance.
Obviously, a lot of effort was put into the processing of the pork belly.
Li Xiao took out two more pieces of soft pork belly from the soup, and this time he tasted them more carefully.
After swallowing the pork belly, I understood why the pork belly in the pork belly soup, which does not have a strong pork belly flavor, is so soft and glutinous.
Pressure cooker!
The chef puts the blanched pork belly into a pressure cooker filled with a small amount of water, so that it only takes a short time to make the pork belly that is difficult to cook tender become soft and waxy.
In the end, the chef only wanted pork belly, not the milky white soup in the pressure cooker.
This approach can also further reduce the guanine in the pork belly soup and reduce the risk of gout recurrence.
"Yes, this soup is really good. The pork belly is soft and has no peculiar smell."
"The four ingredients of purple ginger, yam, barley and black pepper work together perfectly."
"For the elderly who have rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis at home, this soup is really good to make at home."
"But it is recommended to eat it in spring, autumn and winter."
"Summer itself is very hot. Drinking another bowl of this soup may turn your body into a furnace."
“The taste is quite good. It’s a good start from the beginning. I’m looking forward to the next dishes!”
Li Xiao only drank a small bowl of soup and then stopped. It wasn't that he didn't like it, but he saw that Zhang Haoquan seemed to like it more.
After drinking, he immediately pretended that he was still interested, and of course he gave up any intention of competing with the other party.
The second dish came soon, but the moment he saw the dish clearly, he had the urge to close the live broadcast room.
And when the young lady said the name of the dish, he wanted to cover her mouth.
"Hello, the steamed Yangtze saury has a lot of fish bones, so please be careful when tasting it."
!!!!
When he heard the name of the dish clearly, not only Li Xiao was startled, but many viewers in the live broadcast room were also startled.
"!!!Wait a minute, isn't this thing a protected animal?"
"I'm looking at the punishment, and it's getting more and more severe!"
"Anchor, calm down, there are 400,000 people in your live broadcast room!"
"I have already reported it. What kind of thing is eating protected animals in public?"
"Calm down, maybe it's just like the Yangtze River saury!"
"That's right, many fish are very similar to Yangtze saury. In order to sell them at a higher price, those unscrupulous merchants like to say that they are common saury!"
"The anchor is not this kind of person. I feel like the old man tricked the anchor!"
"What did I just say? I told you that when you come to such a remote place, you must eat wild animals!"
"It's really bloated, I've already reported it."
At the same time, perhaps due to the large number of reports received, two super managers came into the live broadcast room instantly.
[Super Administrator 09] Enter the live broadcast room.
[Super Administrator 05] Enter the live broadcast room.
In an instant, Li Xiao broke out in a cold sweat. He knew that if he didn't handle it well today, let alone 5 million fans, even 50 million would be in vain.
Seeing that Li Xiao had not moved yet, Zhang Haoquan turned his head strangely:
"What's the matter? Not to your liking? Even though this swordfish is small and has many bones, it's really delicious."
Li Xiao resisted the urge to kill and asked mechanically:
“But isn’t this Yangtze saury a nationally protected animal?”
Hearing Li Xiao's words, Zhang Haoquan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted immediately.
He finally understood why Li Xiao suddenly stopped using his chopsticks.
He laughed and explained quickly:
"Don't worry, don't worry, although it is Yangtze River saury, it is farmed. The farmed saury is not wild. This thing was developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences near the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River."
"This is to prevent the Yangtze saury from becoming completely extinct, so now a large number of artificially bred fish are released every year."
"Of course, in order to reduce research pressure, the Chinese Academy of Sciences will also set aside a certain share for sale to external parties."
"However, although it is cultured, the price of swordfish here is still very expensive because the technology is not yet mature."
Seeing that Li Xiao still had a doubtful expression, Zhang Haoquan shook his head helplessly:
"Now, young men, each one is more timid than the other. I know you are running a live broadcast, so how can I harm you?"
As he spoke, he pressed the call button on the counter. Within 3 seconds, there was a knock on the door, and then a young lady with good-looking features walked in.
To be able to come in so quickly, it was obvious that he was nearby from the beginning.
Before the young lady could ask, Zhang Haoquan pointed at the two Yangtze saury fish on the table and said:
"This kid is worried that this is wild and wants to see your purchase certificate."
The young lady didn't have any surprises. She nodded and replied in a gentle voice:
"Two distinguished guests, please wait a moment and they will be available immediately."
After saying that, she quickly left the room, and not long after, she appeared next to the table with a sales certificate and purchase list.
In fact, when the young lady left, Li Xiao's worries basically disappeared. There was really no need for the other party to lie to him in this place.
However, for safety reasons, Li Xiao still read the evidence provided by the other party.
Of course, while watching, he also pointed the camera at the sales license and delivery list of Yangtze River cultured saury.
When it was confirmed that Li Xiao had done nothing illegal, the two super administrators disappeared without saying a word.
In fact, their worries are no less than that of Li Xiao. After all, he is the number one anchor of the Cat Live Food Zone. If he is really caught for eating protected animals, the money tree will wither in an instant.
It is still the kind of burning to death directly. After all, the state control is very strict now.
Internet celebrities will not be given any chance to prevent them from having too bad an impact on society.
