It is the final time for all teams in the food competition to complete their dishes.
In the giant hourglass, the left and right gravels finally dripped from top to bottom. The host appeared out of nowhere, holding the microphone high and announcing the end of the game.
Xiangyuan Restaurant was the most troublesome. They used the charcoal stove early, and Yu Jian "fed" the extra charcoal blocks. Finally, they made six dishes in a hurry. But Chef Fang frowned for a while.
He didn't dare to let go, probably because the dish he made didn't meet his requirements.
Fang Zilu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was pretty good to be able to finish——
Jiang Cheng reluctantly put down the spatula in his hand. Without the blessing of a strong fire, the roasted pigeon was just a pickled semi-finished product that had no time to be roasted in the oven. The second chef was kicked off the stage, and Dongpo Pork was also aborted.
In a hurry, I could only substitute fried shredded eels, add braised lion's head, Tibetan fish with lamb and an edelweiss tofu and abalone soup, barely enough for four dishes.
The one that should be most worried should be Haicheng Restaurant. Most of the time on a charcoal stove is used to simmer the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, leaving only a few dozen minutes for the other dishes.
However, Chen Achun didn't care. He happily gave instructions to his disciples and did not forget to teach his disciples. He seemed to have let go of his heart and regarded this place as a friendly match.
He also thought about it silently for a long time, and suddenly felt that this situation might not be bad after all.
The little girl from the Yu family could only win the championship, but he was really convinced!
It didn't matter to him that he had failed, but the apprentice might still have knots in his heart. Chen Achun glanced at the apprentice whose lips were tightly pursed, and sighed slightly. It doesn't matter, just go back and enlighten him.
One thing about his apprentice is exactly the same as him, that is, he doesn't hold grudges and can think openly about everything, so that he can live longer, right?
When the staff came to serve the food, Chen Achun was stingy and scooped out half a jar of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, only filling each small bowl... half.
"You... please give me more. What if the judges don't have enough to eat?" The staff member scratched his head.
Chen Achun's eyes widened: "What's enough to eat? There are so many dishes for the four teams. Each pot will be full with just one bite. And...ask the three people sitting there if they are still hungry?!
"
What answered him was a loud burp from Shi Jia Chuan——
Chen Achun's arrogance became even more arrogant. He covered the lid of the big sand pot and started to chase people away: "Go, go - just give it a try, I'm not willing to part with it!"
After the staff left, he opened the lid again, took out a small casserole, and filled the pot with great enthusiasm. He saw that the shark's fin, abalone, pork belly, chicken and duck were all clear and bright, and they all had an oily color.
I also smelled the strange fragrance, and just when everyone was coveting it——
"Click".
He closed the lid again. Then he walked towards the direction where Yu Jian was standing. When he arrived, he put it on the cooking table. Under Yu Jian's doubtful eyes, he showed a loving smile: "It's for you. Use it."
The taste cooked over charcoal fire is even better.”
"No, no, no - Chef Chen, you are too polite..." Yu Jian was stunned and waved her hands repeatedly. The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall! The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is filled with rare ingredients! It is still the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall cooked by a famous chef!
And it’s still so big…one pot.
Yu Jian was flattered, but also felt it was too precious.
"Don't refuse! If it weren't for the charcoal stove you gave me, no one would be able to eat it today. You are a great contributor, so naturally you should get more. Girl, taste it well and remember to give me your opinion when the time comes!" Chen Achun did not allow her to refuse.
So...under the slightly fiery gazes of Huang Nuan and Chen Xinyi from a distance apart, Yu Jian accepted it shamelessly, her words showing respect and admiration for Chef Chen: "How can I give you any advice..."
"Hahaha," Chen Achun laughed heartily, "little girl, don't belittle yourself. Which dish you cooked today was not a hit, a simple yet authentic one? I would like to try the turtle meat you cooked, I don't know...
…”
"There are some, let me put some for you!" Yu Jian quickly found the largest deep-mouthed plate, but felt that it was not big enough, so she simply picked up the casserole and presented it to him: "You can just put the pot in front of him.
Take it away!”
The lines on Chen Achun's face became deeper, and he didn't refuse, just took it and left: "Thank you then!"
This chance encounter, thanks to a small steaming charcoal stove, narrowed the distance between the two chefs and established an unforgettable friendship.
Of course, this is a story for another day.
There are brocaded turtles all over the place, with turtle meat as the main body, mixed with a large number of precious ingredients, with unique flavor of mushrooms, sprinkled with spice powder and slowly cooked.
The soup has been dried by the fire, leaving only a little bit at the bottom of the pot, but it is just this little bit of soup that makes the ingredients inside become soft and juicy, and the fresh, salty and mellow aroma lingers in your mouth.
The turtle meat is stewed until it is soft and glutinous, and when you bite it, you will get the gelatinous texture of collagen. The mushrooms are rich and sweet, and you can taste the unpretentious and authentic taste.
It's like the blending of the earth and the lake, so moist that all your senses are infinitely magnified.
"Apprentice, do you understand?" Chen Achun swallowed the fungus in his mouth and asked slowly.
The apprentice was immersed in this wonderful taste and nodded in response: "I understand."
Smiling in relief.
Sure enough, in the light of Yu Jian's six dishes, other dishes have become embellishments.
In fact, it’s not that everyone doesn’t want to eat it, it’s because——
I was so hungry just now that I had already eaten a whole bowl of rice with the delicious dishes, and also ate all the dozens of wontons made by Yu Jian.
Right now, I really have more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
Of course, face still has to be given.
It's just that the first six dishes are all comparable to Qiongxian Yulu. No matter how good the subsequent dishes are, they don't have the feeling of being astonishing.
The result of this game is obvious to everyone. A little-known girl won the championship. The gold content of this championship is surprisingly high!
Wang Song was very happy. Before the results of the competition were announced, people from other provincial and municipal food associations had already come to congratulate him. The look in his eyes at Yu Jian was indescribably kind and kind, as if he was looking at his own daughter.
Same.
No……
At this moment, Yu Jian is his daughter. His biological daughter!
Looking at the interview invitation messages sent by Beijing media on his mobile phone, he was so happy that he grinned to the back of his ears.
The award ceremony will be held five days later, and after the red case competition is the white case competition. Yu Jian stood on the stage, constantly accepting congratulations and congratulations coming and going, and returned the gifts restrainedly.
"Girl! Can you let me take away your remaining sheep?" When Shi Jiachuan came on stage, he held Yu Jian's hand and did not forget to make a slightly "shameless" request. After eating, he still wanted to take it away even though it was not him.
tradition, but he couldn't bear it and thought about it all night long.
Yu Jian: "Hun Yang Shihu doesn't eat the wrapped mutton."
Shi Jiazhuan let go of her hand and said quietly: "I know! But the mutton makes people drool just by looking at it. The taste must be extraordinary!"
He looked much more carefully than others, and the sauce used to cook the lamb was definitely not ordinary.
This guy is quite knowledgeable.
Yu Jian secretly laughed. Originally, the mutton was intended to be kept for Teacher Guan and Mr. Liu. The climate in the capital city must be humid and northerners would definitely not be able to bear it. She used an ancient secret method of medicinal diet to make the concoction into a sauce and bake it at high temperature.
Then it fully penetrates into the meat.
It is no exaggeration to say that this sheep now is no ordinary sheep.
"Uh... ok, you can wait in Teacher Guan's lounge later and I'll have someone take it to you."
