Chapter 180: The Best in the Audience
With Su Zi's dishes delivered, a burst of delicious smell wafted in, and Xue Yi first put his mind at ease.
Lao Jianghu doesn't need to make a move, just smelling the smell can judge seventy percent.
This Wensi tofu is obviously much better than the knife work practiced by Su Zifang before, although it is not as amazing as Longjing shrimp, but it can also be ranked among the best in this Huaiyang Cooking Exchange Competition.
"The taste is good, but it's a pity that it's too spread, and if you can lock in the flavor, it's definitely a top-notch dish. Mei Yuanbai saw it more accurately, and was more picky than Xue Yi, so he took a bite and put down the spoon.
"Nice, delicious!"
He Jianmin had no scruples, drank the whole bowl and exhaled a long breath happily, and half of his thoughts were so angry that he wanted to beat people.
"The extreme freshness, there is the shadow of the mushroom soup, it should be the help of the kid from Mu Wangfu. But it's not bad. It's a pity that the Longjing shrimp he made is not as delicious!" Huang Sheng sighed with half praise and half pity.
After a little exchange, Su Zifang's score was also announced.
9.0 points.
The highest in the audience!
Su Zifang frowned slightly when he saw this result: "Do you really want to be the first?"
Although he will not refuse the honor he gets based on his strength, compared to the 100,000 yuan bonus, he feels that Wu Ping and Zhao Xiaoman can save themselves again, such as 0.1 points higher than themselves.
In the waiting area, Su Zifang had just sat down, and a voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "You did a good job." ”
Su Zifang turned his head and saw Ao Zuo standing beside him (shēn) with a hand outstretched: "I underestimated you before, I'm sorry." ”
This scene is familiar!
Su Zifang thought of the scene when the two met at the beginning, but the order was reversed, and Ao Zuo took the initiative to shake hands, hesitated for a few seconds, and stretched out his hand to symbolize a shake.
"Uh...... Never mind. ”
"I know you must have been arrogant and ignored you before thinking about me, and now it's almost right to come (tào) when you see your good grades?" Ao Zuo grinned, and without embarrassment, he pierced Su Zifang's thoughts.
Su Zifang: ......
"Actually, I don't have any other ideas, I just want to compare cooking with you. I didn't think you would be in vain, so I didn't pay much attention to you. Ao Zuo smiled honestly, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, "A few days ago, Miss Xue said that your yang (chūn) noodles are good (tǐng), why don't we compare them tomorrow morning?"
I didn't say it! Don't talk nonsense! No!
Su Zifang denied the triple.
He finally understood why Ao Zuo's attitude suddenly became so good, and he also thought of Xue Xinjian's previous comment - "He is such a person, don't mind." ”
Well...... Looking at this (shēn) tendon (ròu) comparable to a calf, no one dares to mind!
"I'm going back to Jingling tomorrow, it's too late to catch the car, or when you come to Jingling, let's have a good comparison, right?"
Su Zifang suddenly thought that he could leave overnight after the game, and gave thirty-two likes for this reason.
Based on his knowledge of the chef's job (qíng), as long as Ao Zuo returns to the Ao Stove Noodle Restaurant, he will not have any holidays to come to Jingling, and he can avoid the competition.
Unexpectedly, Ao Zuo smiled even more happily when he heard this.
"It's okay, I happen to be going to Jingling next week to visit a master, and I will definitely come to ask for advice when the time comes. ”
Ao Zuo left happily after saying this, leaving Su Zifang to look at the task that suddenly popped up in front of him in a daze.
[Quest (Shiliyang (chūn)): Ask the host to take on Ozuo's challenge and win the challenge. Reward: Salted duck eggs. 】
Why did you suddenly come to the mission, and you must defeat Aozuo......
Su Zifang looked at the task, counted the time when Ao Zuo went to Jingling, and his mind was full of a classic quote from the host of the sports channel: "There is not much time left for the Huaxia team!"
For the rest of the time, he had been thinking about how to complete this task, and he didn't notice that Wu Ping and Zhao Xiaoman had returned from the game.
It was Zhao Xiaoman who took the initiative to interrupt him before he came to his senses: "Congratulations to Boss Su!"
Wu Ping smiled as sincerely after her (shēn): "Congratulations to Senior Brother!"
Su Zifang was a little stunned by these two congratulatory sentences.
Congratulations on what?
Are you really the first?
It is understandable that Zhao Xiaoman's crystal dish (ròu) is not done well, after all, it is the first time to make it, but how can Wu Ping's fish cake overturn?
Su Zifang returned to the cooking area with the staff full of questions.
Gu Pingping picked up the microphone: "I won't say anything about the guest (tào), congratulations to the five of you! You have proved your cooking skills with your own strength, and you have not disappointed everyone! Next, I will comment on several dishes on behalf of the judging team."
"First of all, let's talk about the last place of the day, fried prawns. ”
"Today's fried prawns do not show the flavor of this classic Su dish very well, the contestants obviously refer to the stewed prawns in Lu vegetable oil in the production technique, but the processing method of the fusion of the two dishes is relatively unsuccessful, perfectly avoiding all the essence of the two dishes, and the finished product seems a little nondescript. ”
He so-called lowered his head in shame after listening to his evaluation, he had been scolded by He Jianmin on WeChat in the waiting area just now, if it weren't for He Jianmin's deep thinking of father and son (qíng) for so many years, he had no doubt that he would be expelled from the house.
Gu Pingping didn't notice the so-called action, and continued to speak: "Crystal dish (ròu) is another classic Huaiyang dish! Zhao Xiaoman's performance in this dish is good enough, frozen like amber and colored like a rose. Although the overall taste is a little worse due to the simmering time and the lack of nitrate for marinating, we believe that if we had enough time to show our cooking skills, this crystal dish (ròu) would never have been as good as it is now. ”
"But we also have a question, why did you choose to add pork rind to your crystal dish (ròu) to preserve its shape better, or to enrich the taste?"
"Yes, because my father makes jelly every year, and I learned this from him. ”
"No wonder!" Gu Pingping nodded, clearing up his doubts.
"I wish you better and better development on the road of chefs in the future!" Gu Pingping said.
"Thank you!" Zhao Xiaoman responded with a polite smile.
Gu Pingping turned his gaze to Ao Zuo.
"Plum blossom cake is a special snack in Jingling area, and it is not easy for you to do this. The outside is glutinous and sandy, and the fruity flavor is rich, and the use of egg rolls to hold it is also a little more subtle, and the change in taste is very ingenious. Several of us thought (tǐng) was delicious. It's just that you may have overlooked one point, dessert (shēn) is to use sugar to awaken dopamine in the human body, and your plum blossom cake is slightly restrained, and the sugar is not enough, and the happiness produced is a little bit worse. After Gu Pingping finished speaking, he still had some regrets.
"The reason why you have a lower score is that you are in this place, I don't know if it is a personal habit or a deliberate one, if you can add more sugar or honey to this dish next time, I believe it will have a better effect." ”
After saying Ao Zuo, Gu Pingping looked at Wu Ping.
"Today's Wenju fish cake is a combination of hairtail, mackerel, catfish and other fish, and the flavor is extremely rich. The gelatinity is appropriate, the elastic (xìng) is just right, and there is no fish bone. In terms of taste, it is indeed the most tender time I have eaten in so many years, and the method of original, grilled and fried three spells makes the delicious display of fish cakes incisive, the only drawback is that the taste is too strong and there is no soup, and the balance of flavor is lost. ”
"But this should be caused by both the competition system and your own factors, with your strength, if this time the investigation is not a dish, but a combination, maybe the first place is yours. Gu Pingping gave very pertinent advice.
Wu Ping nodded in understanding.
"Last ......"
Gu Ping breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Su Zifang in the middle of the team.
"Let's talk about today's best in the game. ”
