Chapter 525: The Cheap-Mouthed Dog Thing Admitted Defeat......

Hansen lost the first course.

Although he was a little unconvinced, he immediately put away his reluctance and focused on the game.

The second course is salmon.

Still, he chose a champion dish, salmon with verbena kiwi jam.

Verbena kiwi jam is the finishing touch.

Soak the verbena in hot boiling water for 5~6 minutes, let the aroma release in the hot water, strain the grass blades and pour the juice into the jam to mix.

During the boiling process, the smell of jam overflowed the glass room, and the green jam was covered with small black dots.

As for the smell of the green prairie, the fragrance of grass wafts away. Seeing it makes people appetite great.

Through the glass house, the five judges can still imagine the enchanting aroma.

Qiao Zhi is working on an Australian filet mignon.

Gently pat the beef with the back of the knife, and there is no change on the surface, but in fact the fibers of the beef have been broken up.

There are many kinds of beef, either tender and bloody, such as Kobe beef from the island country, or rotten, such as Angus beef, which must be fully cooked and crispy.

Australian filet mignon is somewhere in between.

He's cooking a steak that combines East and West.

Half of the steak is simply fried, not with black pepper sauce, but with a secret tempeh.

The other half of the steak is first marinated with green onions, ginger, spices and salt, after blanching, cut into large pieces and stewed with old marinade, and change the knife when it is seven or eight medium cooked to ensure a neat appearance. Roast over a fire and place on a plate.

Thicken with marinade and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

The broccoli is then stir-fried in garlic butter and garnished next to the beef.

Qiao Zhi's handling fell into the eyes of the judges as it was.

For them, steaks are generally fried.

As for the taste of the steak, it is important to look at the different ingredients and control the heat.

Medium-rare, medium-rare, or full-cooked.

Different degrees of doneness represent different tastes.

The second is the preparation of the sauce.

It's usually black pepper paste.

Qiao Zhi actually chose tempeh, which is commonly used in Chinese food.

The mood of the five judges at the moment was not eye-opening, but doubtful.

However, because of Qiao Zhi's first dish of tofu salmon, their impression has changed, so they still have great expectations for Qiao Zhi's dish.

It was Hansen who prepared salmon with verbena kiwi jam first.

After waiting for five minutes, Qiao Zhi prepared his Chinese tempeh marinated steak double.

Qiao Zhi and Hansen tried it separately.

Gao Xiaobai asked Hansen to evaluate first this time.

After Hansen finished eating, he suppressed the expression on his face.

"It tastes worse than the last dish. In particular, I can't stand the taste of tempeh, and the steak has completely lost its original taste, and it is a mixture of plastic and rag in my mouth, which is difficult to swallow. ”

Hansen's comment, after being translated by Gao Xiaobai, left all the audience dumbfounded.

"This guy is endless! Why is he talking so ugly, I really want to tear his mouth apart. ”

"I found a piece of news on the Internet. Two years ago, he used to maliciously slander the opponent's food, and as a result, they fought directly together at the game site, when he was knocked out several teeth, but I didn't expect this guy to know the truth of eating a trench and growing wise. ”

After the last round, everyone became accustomed to Hansen's style.

This guy is a dog who can't spit out ivory.

Whether it is delicious or not, he will attack his opponents with foul language.

After Hansen said these words, he still felt a little guilty in his heart.

The tempeh marinated steak is a double platter that fully shows off two different flavors. The tempeh steak is only lightly pan-fried, which retains the original flavor of the steak.

The marinated steak is very rotten, it tastes very smooth in the mouth, and it leaves a fragrant taste on the cheeks.

The judges began to taste salmon with verbena kiwi jam.

After Mark's finish, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Although it is delicious, because Qiao Zhi's previous tofu salmon taste was too strong, the salmon dishes cooked by Hansen now are obviously slightly inferior in comparison.

Although verbena kiwi jam is well boiled and eye-catching, it is never as good as tofu salmon, which makes people have an endless aftertaste.

Mark remembered this feeling and began to taste Qiao Zhi's steak with tempeh and marinated steak.

There are two ways to eat steak, and the taste is completely different.

This dish showcases the high-end of the steak ingredients and the chef's high level of seasoning.

Beef can show both a fresh and refined taste, as well as a rich taste, with tempeh and marinade highlighting the taste of both types of beef.

It makes people forget the taste of Hansen's first steak with morel mushrooms in an instant.

The high and low are immediate.

Judge Mark and the other four judges began to communicate.

"What do you think?"

French judge Florent sighed: "It must be admitted that Qiao Zhi is more professional and innovative than Hansen. The food he cooks, both in terms of appearance and taste, is impeccable and impressive. I still have to give 10 points for this dish. ”

The rest of the judges gave high scores.

Mark, as a Western chef, prefers Hansen, but he has to follow fairness.

Qiao Zhi's performance is really good.

Mark held the microphone, "Joe's dish reminds me of two dishes I've seen in the materials. One of the dishes, called Meiling Steak, is a common dish in the official families of the Republic of China, and the other dish is the tempeh steak that must be included in the state banquet for foreign guests in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. ”

The judge, Mark, is not only a chef, but also a foodie.

There is a study on the development of catering in various countries.

He also pays special attention to the development of Chinese catering culture.

In recent years, I have read a lot of historical materials about the development of Chinese catering.

I pay special attention to the fusion of Chinese and Western food.

So he can easily tell allusions.

Qiao Zhi didn't expect someone among the judges to be able to tell the source of his creative dish.

These judges still have two brushes.

From Mark's focus on Qiao Zhi, the results of this round can already be known in advance.

When the judges announced Qiao Zhi's scores.

The audience erupted in thunderous applause.

Indisputably, Qiao Zhi received fifty points.

And Hansen only scored forty-three points for the second course.

After the first two rounds, Hansen has fallen behind Qiao Zhi by ten points in total.

Only the last dish is a creative dessert.

Both main courses failed, and Hansen's mood felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He never thought he would lose.

I didn't expect to lose so badly.

Even against Max, he only lost the game by a slight disadvantage.

Tasted two dishes cooked by Qiao Zhi.

Especially after the second course, he actually has a sense that he will lose badly.

Qiao Zhi's second steak cooking is extremely targeted.

The flavor is a bit heavier than that of your own steak with morels.

If it is heavier, it will stand out and make people shine.

Carefully recalling, when he cooked the first dish, Qiao Zhi seemed to pause for a long time, did he deliberately compare with his wrong dish.

The wrong dish is within the scope of the rules.

But most people don't do that.

Normal people will compete with their opponents on the same ingredients.

If you really deliberately make the wrong dish, you can also form a difference in taste.

But only if you have enough confidence in your first course.

If that's the case, then Qiao Zhi's city is a little too deep.

Losing is losing, and there's no need to find a reason.

is also because he is too light on the enemy, and he doesn't consider that the other party will adopt tactics at all.

The final course is a creative dessert.

It has no impact on the outcome, but it is a battle to preserve one's dignity.

Hansen showed his housekeeping skills.

For Western chefs, the status of dessert chefs is very high.

A good pastry chef will be a good chef, but a good chef will never be a good pastry chef.

Dessert is like a mathematical puzzle that requires precise calculation of each step.

An extra 20 or 50 grams of flour or sugar can be a disaster when it is put into the oven.

In addition, the pastry chef must also have a good aesthetic and know how to match colors and symmetry.

Hansen made a puff tower.

In foreign countries, puff towers have many meanings, such as birthday celebrations, weddings or Christmas dinners.

Small puffs filled with creamy filling, stacked with caramel to form a tower.

Garnished with a nougat basket of iced almonds, cream, strawberry jam, in addition to powdered sugar and rose petals.

In order to show off the magnificence of the puff tower, a circle of colorful macarons is also added, and the chocolate ganache is squeezed.

When Hansen finished, the audience outside let out a shocking exclamation.

"This riffraff chef still has two or three hits. In just a few dozen minutes, such a luxurious puff tower was piled up. ”

"I really want to eat it!"

"Are you a mutiny?"

"Alas, no way, my girlish heart!"

From the visual point of view, the French puff tower made by Hansen is too impactful.

The moment it was removed and placed on the table, a sweet smell of caramel filled the air.

The venue was empty, and everyone smelled a peculiar smell.

Seeing that Qiao Zhi was already ready, Hansen shrugged, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time this time." ”

The first two dishes were all Hansen waiting for Qiao Zhi.

After Hansen stood still, Qiao Zhi opened the silver grille.

Hansen's eyes were filled with consternation.

"Opera cake?"

It is called an opera house because the cake resembles a branch of the opera house, with eight layers from the bottom up.

The inner core is stacked on top of each other, and the four layers are cake slices, which cannot exceed 0.5 cm.

The middle brush layer is composed of coffee rum syrup, and the top layer is a chocolate mirror, which is made of Valrhona black diamond mirror, so it looks brighter than the ordinary mirror, which is used to lock in the moisture of the cake, and the mirror surface is inlaid with gold leaf, and the eight layers of different flavors are perfectly blended.

Before tasting, Qiao Zhi took out the red marinade from a small bowl and poured it on the opera cake.

Hansen picked up the spoon and tasted it, his face showing disdain.

The first bite goes into the belly.

There was indescribable shock in his eyes.

The sour taste of raspberries, the sweetness of coconut, the bitterness of chocolate, and the slight astringency of blueberry seeds are actually sweet and sour from the cake.

It was difficult to speak for a long time.

Wait for Gao Xiaobai to hand the microphone to his mouth.

Hansen smiled bitterly at himself, "I have to admit that Qiao Zhi has won my approval, he is an excellent chef." ”

Everyone was stunned that this cheap dog thing actually admitted defeat......
