As soon as Uncle Chen finished speaking, the two of them tasted, thought, scribbled and revised on the paper, and wrote down the ingredients of the dish.
Although both are top chefs in the industry.
But it’s very difficult to write down all the ingredients after just a few bites.
After a while, I saw two people writing it and handing it to Uncle Chen.
The Michelin chef brought by Qin Xiaoman put down his pen and said with some pride:
"Uncle Chen's original dish of 'Qiao Cui Dian Huang Full Mouth Fragrance' is quite creative. In addition to traditional Chinese seasonings, such as star anise, nutmeg, aniseed, dried ginger, aniseed, etc., there are also
Many Western condiments, if I guess correctly, there are also cracked black pepper, Italian vanilla powder, and thyme..."
As soon as the chef finished speaking, he looked at Uncle Chen.
Uncle Chen nodded slightly and glanced at him approvingly.
Then, Uncle Chen carefully looked at the ingredients written by the two people and announced:
"There are seventeen kinds of spices in this dish. This Michelin-starred chef has written down a total of fifteen kinds. These fifteen kinds are all correct!"
The Michelin chef was a little proud and nodded at Qin Xiaoman.
Then, he glanced at Xiao Ding provocatively.
I heard Uncle Chen immediately say:
"Mr. Xiao wrote a total of fourteen types, and they were all correct. However, he wrote one less than the Michelin chef. It's a pity..."
It was obvious that Qin Xiaoman came out on top when it came to tasting the dishes.
As soon as Uncle Chen finished speaking, the Michelin chef suddenly said:
"Uncle Chen, this original dish of yours is indeed good. But I think that your dish uses too many traditional Chinese seasonings. On the contrary, it masks the taste of Western seasonings. If your dish
, using mainly Western seasonings and excluding traditional Chinese seasonings. Then your dish will definitely be even better!"
This Michelin chef had a very loud voice. As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Chen frowned slightly.
Before Uncle Chen could speak, the Michelin chef immediately said:
"From a gourmet perspective, Chinese dishes are too rough and the flavor of the seasonings is too strong. In other words, the seasonings cover up the taste of the ingredients themselves. But Western dishes are more refined and nutritious.
.The seasonings are also very different. In cooking, Western seasonings only play a decorative role. Try to retain the taste of the food itself as much as possible. It tastes healthier and more delicious!"
The Michelin chef was talking eloquently. He knew clearly that Uncle Chen was unhappy, but he still kept talking to himself.
"I went to Japan to study cooking when I was 16, and went to South Korea when I was 18. Later, I went to the UK. It can be said that after traveling around the world, I increasingly discovered that Chinese food is lagging behind."
Seriously, Chinese food is rubbish, there is no delicious food at all. This time Ms. Qin invited me to be the chef of Yongdeyuan. I will remove all traditional cuisines and replace them with new ones that are exquisite, nutritious, and delicious.
Dishes…”
Because there are seventeen spices, he guessed fifteen.
This Michelin-starred chef is a bit arrogant.
His words made everyone in the audience quite dissatisfied.
After all, everyone grew up eating Chinese food.
Qin Xiaoman was also afraid that he would anger Uncle Chen and that Uncle Chen would not agree to transfer Yongde Garden.
She said hurriedly:
"Uncle Chen, what he said is just his personal idea. We will not implement it!"
Qin Xiaoman's words made people feel that she already had a chance to win.
It seemed that Yongde Garden was hers immediately.
But Uncle Chen still had an indifferent expression and said nothing.
The chef looked at Xiao Ding again and asked provocatively:
"This Chef Xiao, do you think what I said is right?"
Xiao Ding has only studied traditional Chinese cuisine in these years and has little understanding of the cuisines of other countries.
In addition, he was not good at debating, so he didn't know how to speak for a while.
Seeing that Xiao Ding was silent, the Michelin chef became even more arrogant and said disdainfully:
"Not only is Chinese cuisine lagging behind, but the quality of Chinese chefs also needs to be improved!"
As soon as the chef finished speaking, a man suddenly asked him:
"You speak of China. I want to ask, which country are you from?"
The person who spoke was none other than Xia Xiaoyu.
Originally this round was a competition between Chef and Xiao Ding.
It has nothing to do with Xia Xiaoyu.
But Xia Xiaoyu couldn't stand the chef's expression.
He couldn't help but stand up and question.
When Xia Xiaoyu asked him, he was stunned for a moment and then said disdainfully:
"What does it matter which country I am from? What does the garbage of traditional Chinese dishes have to do with which country I am from?"
Xia Xiaoyu couldn't help but sneer.
He slowly walked onto the stage.
The chef thought Xia Xiaoyu was going to fight him, so he took two steps back in fear.
As soon as he arrived on the stage, Xia Xiaoyu immediately asked Leng Leng:
"Thankfully you are still a three-star Michelin chef. You don't even understand the simplest Chinese cuisine, and you dare to comment here! Let's not talk about Korea and the UK. Let's talk about Japan. His cuisine is completely from the Meiji period, that is, China.
It was only in the Qing Dynasty that our own cuisine began to gradually form. And our food culture has lasted for thousands of years at this time! From this perspective, Chinese food is the ancestor of Japanese food!"
"As for the exquisite and beautiful food you mentioned, I guess you have never tasted truly exquisite food in China, or cannot afford it. Take the boiled cabbage in Sichuan cuisine as an example. It requires twelve techniques and seventy
Two hours of processing. There is also the walnut Buddha jumping over the wall to get rice. The preparation method is not sparing any complexity, and it insists on 15 hours of cooking. No matter the color, aroma, taste, or utensils, they are all exquisite without losing the grandeur..."
"As for the eight traditional Chinese cuisines, I won't go into details. Because if you take out any one, it will be enough to crush the delicious food in your mouth!"
As soon as Xia Xiaoyu finished speaking, there was a burst of applause.
Everyone has long been disgusted with how arrogant this chef is.
Xia Xiaoyu's words made the chef feel guilty.
Xia Xiaoyu snorted coldly at him and continued:
"As for you talking about going to Korea to learn food? Are you going to learn how to make kimchi? The kimchi made by our street aunts is no less than Korean kimchi..."
As soon as Xia Xiaoyu finished speaking, the people below burst into laughter.
Even Qi Huairen, who was his opponent, couldn't help laughing.
"As for British food, I think there is no need to talk about it, right? Fish? Chips, or beef?"
Indeed, anyone who has been to the UK knows that there is no such thing as delicious food in the UK.
But this chef just said that he studied cooking in England.
Xia Xiaoyu's words made the chef blush.
But he was still dissatisfied. He pointed at Uncle Chen's delicate emerald yellow dot and said:
"Since you know so much, why don't you tell me what seventeen kinds of seasonings are in this dish! Can you tell me?" (To be continued)
