(PS: Thanks to everyone’s strong support, the little chef finally reached sixth place, and Xiao Xi finally sat back on the chair, full of motivation. In order to thank everyone for their support, Xiao Xi worked hard to code nearly six times in this chapter.
A thousand words, I hope you will accept it. Today I posted a total of 12,000 words. According to the standard of 3,000 words, it is four updates. This is already the limit of Xiaoxi. Now there is a plaster on her left wrist, but now
It’s not time to be complacent yet. The gap between us and those behind us is only a dozen or so votes. In the blink of an eye, we may be blown away. So please work harder and try to push the little chef to a higher position. The coding matter will be left to us.
It’s for Xiao Xi. So far, Xiao Xi’s moral integrity is still very good. As for the monthly ticket, I’ll leave it to you. Thank you.)
The taste is shocking all over the world.
Four simple words have already pushed this dish to another level.
Not only that, this dish also reminded Cai Jing and others of the unforgettable Wu Xiang. It has to be said that the two dishes have many similarities. They both look plain and ordinary, but they contain the highest quality.
The essence and flavor are distributed from the inside out, very restrained.
However, there are still many differences between the two dishes. Wuxiang looks more bland, colorless and phaseless. The dish is just a bowl of water, but as long as your tongue touches it, even if you dip it lightly, it will feel like
There are no words to describe the feeling of eating all the delicacies in the world, and you can't use delicious to describe Wuxiang. It can only be said to be a dream, because the taste is too ethereal and difficult to capture.
It's unreal. How could this kind of smell exist in the mortal world?
It can be said that Wuxiang is already superior to mortals, and perhaps only the gods in the world are qualified to possess it.
This Thousand-Hand Guanyin dish is relatively down-to-earth. Its taste is very real, and as you eat it, the taste becomes stronger and stronger, forcing people to chew it forever and be reluctant to swallow it.
This is undoubtedly a delicacy worthy of lingering on the tip of your tongue.
Everyone was full of praise for this dish.
As Zuo Boqing ate, he suddenly felt a little disappointed. Although he had known for a long time that his cooking skills were not as good as Li Qi's, he did not expect that Li Qi was still making breakthroughs in himself, and the gap between him and him was getting wider and wider. In addition,
, even Zhang Chun'er is on par with him, or even better. Looking at the delicious food on the plate, her heart is filled with mixed emotions.
Cai Jing looked at Zuo Boqing and asked, "Boqing. I wonder what Li Qi's dish is about." He was a gourmet, but he didn't know how to cook. Regarding some professional issues, Zuo Boqing obviously
Know more than him.
Zuo Boqing was startled for a moment, pulled his thoughts back, and said hurriedly: "The Grand Master may not know that this dish is very particular. It also requires a lot of effort, and it is not something that ordinary people can make."
Gao Qiu was curious and asked, "How do you say this?"
Zuo Boqing picked up his chopsticks, ordered the delicacies on the plate, and said: "I wonder if you have noticed that when this fish was just presented, it looked like a very complete fish from the outside, even the skin was intact.
It’s not broken, but from the inside, it can be said to be a mutilated fish.”
Wang Zhongling asked curiously: "General Manager Zuo, aren't your words contradictory?"
Zuo Boqing shook his head repeatedly, used chopsticks to open up a large piece of fish meat on the surface, and said, "Didn't the right prime minister realize that the fish bones and internal organs were not included?"
Since everyone was focused on the smell of fish just now, they didn't pay much attention. Now after hearing Zuo Boqing's words, they picked up their chopsticks and took a closer look. They found that there were no fish bones, and they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"Getting fish bones without breaking the skin, this--" Cai Jing shook his head repeatedly and said, "This is too difficult."
Zuo Boqing exclaimed: "The most bizarre and rare thing about this dish is that it holds everything in its belly yet does not leak any water from its body."
Zheng Yi thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure out how to do it, so he hurriedly asked: "I wonder if Mr. Zuo knows how to make it."
Zuo Boqing shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Zuo is ashamed that he didn't know this method of preparation, and this method of preparation is also the first time I have seen, but this is only one of the reasons. The second is that the fish will not be disemboweled.
Under the circumstances, wash and remove the fishy smell. The key to this dish is that there should be no fishy smell, otherwise it will fail. But this step can be done as long as you are careful enough, but the next step is also very rare. Just eat it.
At that time, everyone must have discovered that there is a delicious and rich soup hidden in the belly of the fish. Filling the fish belly with soup and then sealing it is very demanding. There are probably no people in this world who can do this.
More than ten people. Third, of course it is cooking. It is not difficult to cook a fish, but it is not easy to cook a fish filled with soup, because when you cook it, you must not let the soup flow out.
Otherwise, it will fail, and I ask myself that I can’t do it.”
Cai Jing and others were amazed when they heard that such a simple fish actually took so much effort. You must know that this is not just one fish, but eight fish. It is incredible to think about it.
Originally, Zhang Chun'er's Nine Turns Golden Elixir was already shocking, and they couldn't think of any other delicacies that could compare with it, but Li Qi quickly gave them the answer.
This series of questions made everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to Li Qi on the stage. Only he could reveal the answer to the mystery.
Zheng Yi smiled and said: "I wonder if the Golden Knife Chef King can solve all these doubts for us."
Li Qi almost fell asleep when he heard it. He said, "Brother Zuo said it very well. This fish does take some work. If you really talk about the whole fish and bone removal, you will be very knowledgeable."
, but it can also be simply said that practice makes perfect. There are no shortcuts to this, and it does not require any talent. Success can only be achieved through constant practice. As for soup-making, it is indeed very difficult.
If I were alone, I could do it, but it would only be for one fish. If I cook eight fish in a row, I would be almost done."
Zuo Boqing asked curiously: "Is it possible that the young master Liu Zi has mastered this method?" There was a hint of disbelief in his voice.
"Brother Zuo, you think too highly of him. He's still awake."
"Then---why is this?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Have you forgotten that I also invited a heavyweight helper?"
"It's a beauty---no, it's a fairy."
The speaker was none other than Gao Yanei, who was ousted from power. He was focused on the stone statue and didn't care about any delicious food.
Li Qi smiled and nodded, saying: "Ya Nei is right, it is this fairy."
This brought everyone's thoughts back to the stone statue. However, there was no light now. The stone statue was not as stunning as before and looked more ordinary. However, the scene just now made everyone full of curiosity, but
This curiosity was covered up by the delicious food for a while.
Zheng Yi suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Could it be that what just flowed out of the fairy bottle was the soup in the fish belly?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone else suddenly realized.
Zuo Boqing kept saying: "It must be so, it must be so."
Sure enough, Li Qi nodded with a smile and said: "What the Third Secretary said is absolutely right. In fact, the step of filling the soup is not difficult to do as long as you master the know-how. The key is that the big yellow croaker filling the soup is in the pot.
When cooking, you have to keep turning the fish, but you have to ensure one thing, which is what Brother Zuo just said. You can't let the soup flow out, otherwise, the whole dish will fail, so,
This requires the chef to devote himself wholeheartedly, which is very energy-consuming. I have done it before, but just making a fish is very tiring for me, and a small mistake may lead to failure, so I
I thought of asking Bodhisattva for help."
As he spoke, he walked to the stone statue again, pointed to the lotus seat, and said: "Actually, this lotus seat is just a stove, but I put a lot of effort into the design. There are eight in total in this stove.
Iron armor. These eight iron armors correspond to the eight small holes on the lotus base. I deboned the eight large yellow croakers and removed their fishy smell, then applied oil and some spices on them, and then hung them in the iron armor with their mouths facing towards
On the top, eight small holes are seamlessly aligned. It can be said that these eight small holes are actually fish mouths. How to place the eight hands of this stone statue is also very particular. In addition to looking at the posture
In addition to being elegant and unpretentious, I also have to ensure that the soup flowing out of the bottle falls into the fish's mouth accurately. In this way, I can use the temperature of the iron wall to cook the large yellow croaker without anyone operating it.
Next, the fish will not be burnt. This method is something I learned from a method of roasting whole lamb."
Zuo Boqing said: "But this requires very accurate control of the heat, otherwise, it may still be burnt or not cooked."
"That's right." Li Qi nodded and continued: "Since the fish mouth is facing upward, it is impossible for the soup to be exposed during the cooking process. As for sealing, it is only done after taking it out.
Seal the mouth. In fact, the key to the whole fish lies in the soup, not the fish itself. If you put aside the soup, I believe many chefs can make it. I also put a lot of effort into this soup, using
It is made of the finest materials, including scallops, bird's nests, shark's fins, skirts, abalone, sea cucumbers and other eight kinds of precious seafood, and is boiled with clear chicken soup. The finished product of this soup was originally made into tea."
Gao Qiu said: "How is this possible? Just now we clearly saw that the water column flowing out of the bottle has eight colors, which is very beautiful."
Li Qi smiled and said: "That's because in the last step of making the soup stock, I mixed eight kinds of unparalleled cooking wine into it. The purpose is to add color to it, but the taste is relatively light so as not to cover up the delicious taste of the soup.
, for this reason I made some changes in the materials. In fact, the taste of each fish is different, and everyone will know it once they taste it."
When the judges heard this, they all exchanged their tastes. Although the taste was roughly the same, after tasting it carefully, they found that it was really different and they couldn't help but secretly praise it.
"Brother Li, what is that fairy bottle made of? It's so magical."
Hong Tianjiu, who was curious about any fresh food, suddenly shouted.
Gao Yanei then asked: "And what's going on with those golden lights?"
The words of these two idiots also made Li Qi the focus of the audience again.
As expected of Xiao Jiu, he really understands me so well. The main show finally begins. Li Qi coughed lightly and cleared his throat. At the same time, Wu Xiaoliu had already taken down a glass bottle from the stone statue and handed it over to Li Qi.
Qi took the bottle, raised it slightly, and said: "The bottle you are seeing now is of course not a fairy bottle, but it is definitely not an ordinary bottle. It took me, Zuixianju, four years to develop it.
A new product has come out, called glass. This bottle can also be called a glass bottle. As you can see, transparency is the characteristic of this glass bottle. As for the few rays of light just now, they are also related to this glass.
A great relationship.”
In fact, the reason for those rays of light is also very simple. Li Qi attached the prepared glass to the petals made of the lotus seat. He placed a lit candle in front of it and relied on the principle of light reflection to create that phenomenon.
As he spoke, he handed the glass bottle to a maid next to him. Wu Xiaoliu also led two apprentices to take the remaining seven glass bottles from the stone statue's hands.
Cai Jing and others naturally thought that Li Qi was going to show them the glass bottle for appreciation, and they were all gearing up and looking forward to it.
In Gaoyanei, Hong Tianjiu sneaked forward, preparing to follow Brother Qiu to appreciate it.
Just when everyone was looking forward to it, the maids came down from the stage with glass bottles, turned around in a very chic way, and walked back, leaving only a graceful back to everyone.
what's the situation?
Cai Jing and others were immediately stunned and agreed to appreciate it.
Hong Tianjiu became anxious and said: "Brother Li, where are they going to send the glass bottles?"
Of course I have to hide it quickly, otherwise I will ruin it for you. I really don’t know what to say. Li Qi smiled slightly and saw a series of complaints from the audience. We haven’t seen it clearly yet. How can you take it back?
Li Qi pressed his hands. The audience quickly stopped and waited for Li Qi's explanation. Li Qi smiled and said: "Today is a cooking competition between me and Madam Zhang. I also respect this competition very much. I believe Madam Zhang
The same is true, and I hope you can respect this competition. This glass bottle is the latest product of our Zuixianju. If I introduce it too much here, I may overwhelm the guest, which is undoubtedly a dissatisfaction with Mrs. Zhang.
I respect you and I hope you all will respect me."
When Zhang Chun'er heard this, his mind was filled with dirty words. If you didn't want to use this competition to build momentum for this glass bottle, why did you say so much? You have a glass bottle on the left and Zuixianju on the right, but for me, Jinlou
.I didn’t mention it at all. You can’t be so shameless!
Haihan?
My appetite has been whetted to this extent, how can I be so generous!
The audience in the audience unanimously criticized Li Qi and quickly took out the glass bottles for us to observe.
When Li Qi heard these cries of criticism, not only did he not panic at all, but there was a trace of evil smile in his eyes. If this kind of beautiful scenery were not hyped, then all my business over the years would have been in vain. Feel free to despise it. Which business tycoon?
Not to be looked down upon, he hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, please be patient, please be patient, please listen to the next words." His tone was full of embarrassment.
In fact, for Li Qi, any competition is just an appetizer. Building momentum for glass is the main purpose of Li Qi's visit today. Zhang Chun'er is just a stepping stone before glass goes on the market.
The audience fell silent again.
Li Qi was very confused: "I understand your feelings very well, but you also have to understand me. Even if you don't understand me, you still have to understand Mrs. Zhang. There is no winner in this competition yet. However, everyone
Don’t worry, as I said before, this glass is our new product from Zuixianju. Do you understand the product? It is for sale. Since it is for sale, of course you will see it, so why rush it?
?”
Hong Tianjiu immediately said: "Brother Li, when do you plan to come out with the glass and sell it?"
There is a tacit understanding! However, these words sound so evil. Li Qi corrected him: "It's not me holding the glass to sell it, and when did our Zuixianju launch this glass? Xiaojiu, you really should go back.
Read more books."
Hong Bajin hummed: "If this kid is willing to read more books, the stone statue can turn into a fairy."
Uncle Bajin is a very forthright man, he will say whatever he catches.
The crowd burst into laughter.
Especially Gao Yanei, who put his hands on his hips and looked up to the sky and laughed. This was the happiest scene.
No matter how thick-skinned Hong Tianjiu Rao was, his face was as red as a monkey's butt. He looked askance at Gao Yanei who was gloating about his misfortune. He was so angry that when others laughed at him, he admitted that he was indeed inferior to others in skills, but Gao Yanei was not as good as others.
The illiterate Yanei also came to laugh at him. How could he bear this tone? If Ba Jin and Brother Qiu were not there, Xiaojiu would really pounce on Gao Yanei and fight for three hundred rounds.
As soon as the laughter subsided, Zhou Hua asked again: "Brother, when did you, Zuixianju, launch this glass?"
Li Qidao: "Because this glass is very difficult to make, and the process is complicated and you won't believe it. So far, our inventory in Zuixianju is very small. If we take it out tomorrow, many people may not be able to buy it.
They will also destroy the small store, so the specific date has not been set yet, but it will definitely be launched within this year. At that time, we at Zuixianju will hold a press conference for this glass, which will introduce this glass in detail.
, but during this period, everyone should pay more attention to us, Zuixianju, so as not to be preempted by others."
Zheng Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this and said: "It's so impressive that this business is so successful!"
Li Qi kept saying that he wanted to respect this competition, but he never left Zuixianju and continued to build momentum for Zuixianju. Even if he lost this competition, it was still worth the money. You should know that almost the entire Tokyo
All the dignitaries and dignitaries are here. It would be worth a fortune to place an advertisement here.
Cai Jing laughed and scolded: "This kid loves to make secrets."
Gao Qiu said: "But even so, we will still be fooled by him."
As soon as these words came out, the helplessness in everyone's hearts was revealed.
Not to mention others, Cai Jing and the others are also very interested in this glass and will definitely pay attention to this news. As long as the glass is not released for a day, Zuixianju will always be paid attention to.
But how could everyone let Li Qi go like this? They protested again, you are giving us a bad check!
The smile in Li Qi's eyes not only did not dissipate, but became even stronger. He smiled secretly, "You guys really have never seen the world. What does it matter? Back then, the stupid Apple company had a mobile phone that made people all over the world have all kinds of desires."
Death, I kept putting it off again and again, but I just couldn't get out of it. I used the constipation trick to the extreme. Compared to those big capitalists, I am so damn kind.
Obviously he still has everything under control.
Li Qi pressed his hands again, signaling everyone to calm down, and then said: "To be honest, if the opponent was not Mrs. Zhang, I really would not have taken out this glass bottle. I am really sorry about this.
Everyone, but you must give me time to prepare. So, in order to make up for the harm I have done to everyone, I decided to put this stone statue up for auction after the results of the competition. Compared to the glass, this stone statue is probably
There is no need to give in too much. If nothing else, let’s just say that this carving technology is the most advanced technology and is very collectible. As for the money from the auction, all the money will be donated to the charity foundation for charity.
On the other hand, we at Zuixianju won’t take any money from us, so that’s alright.”
But I thought, wait until the money goes into the charity foundation, and then I will use it to invest in my Zuixianju. When I get over this, I can just return the capital with interest to the charity foundation. Haha, it seems genius.
There is no way to describe me anymore.
"This is good, this is good." Gao Yanei shouted hurriedly, but kept staring at the stone statue.
The other wealthy businessmen also began to make calculations. Listening to Li Qi's tone, it seemed that it was impossible for him to take out the glass immediately. This stone statue was indeed very attractive and of commemorative value.
But there was one person excepted. This person was Wang Zhongling. He looked at Li Qi with murderous eyes and muttered, "How can this be true? How can it be true?"
Li Qi had said everything he needed to say, and the goal had been achieved. He quickly skipped the topic and said to Cai Jing and others: "I wonder if the judges can come up with a result after discussion."
Did we discuss it just now? How can we discuss it when you have done so many things?
Having said that, the main topic today is the competition between Li Qi and Zhang Chun'er. Cai Jing, Zuo Boqing and others also returned to the delicious food. They first exchanged eyes with each other and were about to discuss it.
Suddenly Zhang Chun'er stood up and said: "I am convinced that I lost in this competition."
