The center of the canteen is a circular kitchen surrounded by crystal glass, there is no roof, all the glass is spread outward in an arc, like a crystal palace, which is placed with all kinds of kitchen utensils and some special cooking utensils, and there is a spacious open space around the kitchen, and all the food shelves are centered here, in a circle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Qiu Bo walked in front and said, "You two can now choose the ingredients you use, and you can cook them at any time when you are ready, I don't have a time limit for dishes like yours, let's start now." ”
Chen Tianhai looked at Qian Shi and snorted coldly: "Boy, I think you should admit defeat as soon as possible, this place is not suitable for people like you." With that, he walked to the shelf of ingredients.
At this time, Qian Shizheng was surrounded by Li Cai and several others, Sun Jiuwei was worried: "Qian Shi, are you sure, Chen Tianhai is the youngest son of the president of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce in Dongpo City, he has been exposed to all kinds of ingredients since he was a child, although he has an arrogant personality, his cooking skills have also been guided by famous teachers." ”
Qian Shi smiled lightly: "It's okay, you don't have to worry, it's just a cooking competition." Several people looked at Qian Shi, who was walking towards the ingredient shelf, and could only wait anxiously.
Chen Tianhai quickly chose the ingredients and walked back, only to see that the main ingredients in his basket were a few jade-footed bird eggs, which were blue-green like gems, as well as two giant potatoes with purple skin, as well as some condiments such as half a ham, and he walked straight into the kitchen with a confident face, and what everyone didn't expect was that Qian Shiye quickly selected the ingredients and walked back.
It's just that after seeing Qian Shi's main ingredients, the surrounding apprentices all started to talk about it, and the voices of doubt continued, obviously a little surprised, Li Cai even patted his head and shouted: "This, this stupid boy, how did you choose these two ingredients in the canteen of the Drunken Immortal Building." ”
It turned out that Qian Shi's basket contained several eggs of red jungle chickens, this kind of egg is the most common and homely kind of farmed eggs on the Tianhua Continent, compared with the wild jade-footed bird eggs selected by Chen Tianhai, it can be said that it is a lot worse, a high-grade ingredient and a low-grade ingredient, and when you see the vegetable ingredients selected by Qian Shi, it is even more confusing, it is actually a tomato!
And it is the most common tomato in the traditional ingredients, not a new ingredient or improved variety in the Tianhua continent, you must know that the dishes with these two ingredients have a name that everyone in the mainland knows, that is, tomato scrambled eggs, although this dish is also delicious and delicious, but for the food era, this dish has been forgotten by people, although it is the same food, but people are more yearning for high-end diversified ingredients and dishes, each chef wants to have his own unique recipe, develop unknown ingredients, tomato scrambled eggs have even the chef of the country shop disdainful to do。
Qian Shi ignored the eyes and discussions of the people around him and walked into the kitchen, Qiu Bo on the side looked at Qian Shi's ingredients and his eyes lit up, looked at the two people who entered the kitchen at the same time and said to himself: "Interesting, interesting." ”
Chen Tianhai's movements were very fast, after cleaning the ingredients, he chose a small sharp knife, raised the large potato wrist with one hand and forced, with the rotation of the sharp knife, the light and shadow flashed, a thin layer of potato skin was peeled off, and a smooth potato was placed on the board after a few turns, so that the knife flower in one hand.
Then put the potatoes into the water, start cooking, knock open the jade-footed bird's eggs, sort out the seasoning accessories, cut the ham and onion into small pieces, put them aside, and put some flour aside, watching Chen Tianhai make it skillfully and quickly, Li Cai said softly: "I really didn't expect this boy's basic skills to be good, looking at his preparations, it should be to crush the potatoes and mix the flour and the jade-footed bird's eggs into cakes, the jade-footed bird's egg white is fragrant and tender, which is very suitable for other ingredients, and the dishes made should not be bad." ”
Sun Jiuwei on the side said: "I just don't know what that kid in Qian Shi is going to do, I'm really afraid that he will lose this competition now, and then there will be cynicism." ”
"Look, he doesn't seem to be making tomato scrambled eggs!" Zhao Yiman said loudly as he looked ahead.
Originally, they all thought that Qian Shi was going to make a home-cooked tomato scrambled egg, but at this time, it was beyond their expectations, Qian Shi was cutting off the top cover of the tomato with a curved scimitar in front of the board, and then hollowed out the inside of the tomato, made the tomato into a round container, and then put some golden corn kernels into it, and finally beat the egg into it.
Seemingly simple action, but the processing is very meticulous, every knife can not make mistakes, otherwise this shape is difficult to make, soon Qian Shi has made five tomato containers, which are filled with cracked eggs, the yolk is crystal clear, is floating in the tomato, looks extraordinarily bright, and sprinkled with golden herbs, shallots, black sesame, sea salt, eight pins, make the seasoning accessories, apply a layer of oil on the skin of the tomato, and then put them into the tray one by one.
"It's baked eggs! Tomato baked eggs! Using tomatoes as grinding, not only can you better blend the two flavors, but also make the eggs softer and more refreshing during the baking process! I really didn't expect him to have such a method!"
In the amazed eyes of everyone, Qian Shi has put the plate into the oven, waiting quietly, the oven of the drunken immortal building is specially made of scorching volcanic stone, the flame will not be extinguished for a hundred years, the maximum high temperature can reach 1,000 degrees, and it will not damage the freshness of the ingredients, and the ingredients baked by this fire will have more taste, charred but not hard.
At the same time, Chen Tianhai has also reached the final stage, because of his many production procedures, so it has also been delayed a lot of time, and now he has made the purple potatoes and jade-footed bird eggs into a dough and kneaded into a cake shape, and the potatoes are not completely crushed, but cut into fine pieces, which are fused with jade-footed bird eggs and a small amount of flour, and smeared with black pepper, onions, oil, and tempeh hot sauce.
With the movement of Chen Tianhai's hand, the egg cake circled on the pot, and from time to time it swept in the air, with the sound of "zizi", an attractive fragrance also wafted out, and the people around kept sniffling and drooling.
Half an hour later, the two of them came out of the pot at the same time, and everyone stared at these two dishes tightly, one plate is a delicate and small scone, which is made of jade-footed bird eggs and potatoes, and the spiral plate is stacked one after another, mixed with ham, which makes people have a great appetite. The other plate is the tomato baked eggs, each close together, in a circle, red and yellow fragrant, golden herbs and chives decorate, the baked egg yolk in the middle of the tomato is like a sunset, the brilliance is shining, it is really full of color and fragrance, salivating.
A dish of traditional ingredients and new ingredients was placed in front of Qiu Bo at this time, and the surrounding voices were quiet, all waiting for the tasting and judging at this moment, who is the genius apprentice of this year!
