Chapter 132: Drawing lots
At the end of the meal, Su Zifang wanted to say goodbye to Xue Yi before going back to the room, but after waiting for a few minutes, there was no chance, and Xue Yi was surrounded by members of the organizing committee and other chefs.
"Are you looking for my grandfather?" Xue Xinjian looked at Su Zi and kept drifting to the rostrum to guess one or two.
"It's not a big deal, I just want to ask when I should make Longjing shrimp. Su Zi said honestly.
He only has this trump card, but the competition system does not have the opportunity to race horses, so he naturally wants to use this S-level dish at a more critical time.
"Well, if it's just this matter, I think it's good for you to ask him on WeChat, he doesn't have time now. Xue Xinjian said firmly, "He chats with these old friends, usually for at least half a day, unless he is so tired that he wants to rest." ”
"Okay. Su Zifang took out his phone and began to edit the information.
"Aren't you going to take the lead in the first place?" Xue Xinjian asked suddenly.
"How to take it?" Su Zifang stopped typing and looked up at Xue Xinjian, his eyes full of light that grabbed a life-saving straw.
"For example, if you directly make a dish of Longjing shrimp tomorrow, so that the judges will be impressed by you, so maybe they will show mercy to your subordinates when you overturn the car in the next day, and besides, what if any of the judges guesses that you are my grandfather's apprentice by relying on Longjing shrimp, and you will take care of it?" Xue Xinjian's words were full of temptation.
"Like, it's feasible!" Su Zifang began to frantically test on the edge of a gamble.
"Oh, by the way, you...... How is my master's popularity in the circle of friends?" Su Zifang suddenly thought of something and said tentatively.
"It's okay, someone texts him every Chinese New Year. Xue Xinjian recalled.
"That's good. ”
Su Zi put his mind at ease.
I'm afraid that there are really people who have a bad relationship with Xue Yi, once they know that they are Xue Yi's apprentices, they will give themselves a 7 points for the original 10-point cooking, and finally the average score will be eliminated with a gap of 0.1 points.
It's upsetting to think about.
A few days ago, he also said that he received a text message from someone asking him about his Chinese New Year's Eve dinner reservation this year. Xue Xinjian didn't know Su Zifang's inner activities, and said slowly.
Su Zifang: ......
Okay, excuse me, he's still trying to figure out how to be safer on his own.
"Actually, I think it's good for you to play normally, after all, your level is still okay, there are Longjing shrimp and shrimp rot, it shouldn't be a problem to mix the first two days. Xue Xinjian comforted.
"So in Xue Xinjian's opinion, his specialty dish is Longjing shrimp and shrimp curd......
Su Zifang sighed silently: "If only I could master Wensi Tofu." ”
"I really deserve B-grade cuisine, and there are no human rights!"
"Boss Su, I think you may have fallen into a misunderstanding, just let you eat so many masters' dishes, not to make you think that this is the level of competition, but to let you feel what the top Huaiyang cuisine tastes like before the game, and it is to let you have a new understanding of creative cuisine. Xue Xinjian handed him a calm look.
"I've also eaten a few dishes made by your competitors, and in terms of creativity and basic skills, they are indeed slightly better than yours. But that doesn't mean you can't beat them, because your strength lies in ......"
Xue Xinjian's words suddenly stopped.
"Hmm, what?" Su Zi tightened in relief, looking forward to Xue Xinjian's comments as a professional gourmet.
"Good fate. ”
"After the celebrity chef, the talented man of the academy, the family is very rich, he is apprenticed to a master, he restores ancient dishes, and participates in the big competition...... Although I don't watch many male frequencies, this is basically the protagonist template, and the next plot is to punch competitors and win Bai Fumei's favor. Right?"
"Hehe!" Su Zifang rolled his eyes at Xue Xinjian, indicating that you are simply in your head: "Obviously there is just a food management system, how can it be as exaggerated as you say, low-key, low-key." ”
"Actually, except for the few people I told you before, most of the chefs here should be at the same level as you, and this competition system is very beneficial to you, come on!"
Xue Xinjian saw that Su Zifang's nervousness had faded a little, and he was about to get up and leave.
"Thank you!" He also saw that what Xue Xinjian just said was half ridicule and half to help him relieve his psychological pressure, so he thanked him seriously.
But the format is good for him?
He didn't feel it at all!
"Rest early, there will be a lottery tomorrow, good luck! ”
"Hmm, isn't the lottery sorted together?" Su Zifang wanted to ask again, but found that Xue Xinjian had already left with his backpack.
"That's right, there's a lot draw tomorrow. Zhao Xiaoman showed an expression that he really knew that you didn't look at it, and patiently explained: "The lottery is to draw the order of the ingredients. ”
"Do you want to limit the order of ingredient selection?" Su Zifang frowned.
"Yes, due to the limited space and storage facilities, it is not possible to supply unlimited ingredients, and on the first day of the competition, the contestants need to draw lots to determine the order of food selection. ”
"And after that?" Su Zifang was more concerned about this issue.
"In order of achievement, the lower the score, the first choice. Zhao Xiaoman smiled slightly.
"Shhh
As a chef, there are opportunities to encounter all kinds of ingredients, but it is impossible to use good ingredients all the time or not use bad ingredients all the time.
However, if the ingredients of the same dish are different, the final effect is likely to be worlds apart.
For example, Su Zifang's best Longjing shrimp can reach S-level when using Longjing shrimp, and even Su Zifang thinks that if he uses the original buff, he may be able to achieve the taste of real S-level cuisine. However, if you change to ordinary farmed shrimp in water, it will probably only be A- grade at best.
This is a defect at the level of raw materials, and even with extremely high technology, it can only be equaled, but cannot be repaired.
If the ingredients are the same, the chef with good skills will naturally win the relaxation, but the organizing committee's trick completely separates the selection of ingredients and the performance of the chef, and it may be difficult for a good chef to cook without rice.
However, the advantages of this format are obvious, which not only takes care of the audience with some cooking skills, but also ensures the viewing of the professional part.
"I understand, Sister Xiaoman, you mean that most chefs should just try it out tomorrow to avoid being targeted later, right?" Mu Fei suddenly shouted.
"Shhhhhhhh
"So you're saying that we can even release a little bit of water to ensure our priority for the next day, as long as we play steadily?"
"Theoretically, this is better, after all, we don't know the strength of others, so it's the safest. Zhao Xiaoman analyzed: "But in fact, if many people are determined to play well on the first day, they will not hesitate to enter the second day, and the control strength may be eliminated." ”
"This ......"
Su Zifang also frowned: "Exposing or hiding strength, it's really a question!"
