"Matsue perch!"

Hearing Xia Yu's whisper, the radiant Old Lady Tang nodded at him with satisfaction, "You have finally forgotten your roots, and you still recognize these ingredients that have been praised by ancient sages." ”

"Songjiang perch, only produced in Shanghai Songjiang County West Gate outside Xiuye Bridge, is the specialty of Shanghai Songjiang County, since the Wei and Jin dynasties are famous throughout the country, its meat is fat and tender, fresh and no fishy, no fine burrs, the taste is delicious, is the most delicious one of the wild freshwater fish, naturally praised as the four major freshwater fish in China. ”

The old woman held her cane and stood in front of the No. 1 kitchen counter, talking to Xia Yu, and at the same time looking at the camera and talking to everyone watching the audition.

Suddenly, her tone changed sharply, and the change in her tone was astonishing.

"I've often heard Arjun mention you recently, she said that you are very powerful, so powerful that she can look up and can't catch up with ......" Speaking of this, Mrs. Tang's eyes flashed with a hint of elusive color, "The topic of this round of auditions was announced three days ago!"

"Fish cuisine!"

"Isn't it ordinary?"

The old woman smiled, but the talents on the stage were secretly pinching cold sweat.

The other freshwater fish are okay, but it is the Songjiang perch!

It is precisely because of its fame that this freshwater fish, related recipes have long been developed by chefs from all walks of life, steamed, fried, fried, boiled, anyway, the culinary power of the past and present has shown its magic in the ingredients of 'Songjiang sea bass'. You must know that "innovation" is also the evaluation point of the judges, and it is quite difficult for the teenagers and girls on the stage to score points in this regard, but if they can't get high scores, how can they compete for the top 10 on the list?

Today's three auditions, as usual, are 300 points ranked, and only the top 10 will be taken in each game, which is a total of 30 promotions.

"Ordinary?" Xia Yu also shook his head, "The more famous the ingredients, the greater the pressure on the chef's shoulders." ??? ? A look at the book ??· y K?A?NSHU.COMAfter all, as you said, the Matsue perch, which has been praised by the sages of ancient times, has received too much praise, and if it does not highlight its praised side, it will mean failure. ”

Mrs. Tang's cautious answer to Xia Yu was quite unexpected, obviously she didn't expect the young man with the nickname of 'Demon King', his words and deeds didn't match his nickname at all, and he was not arrogant at all.

"Cook an extra sea bass delicacy and take special care of my old lady. ”

The crutches clicked on the floor crisply, and Mrs. Tang said with a smile.

Xia Yu met her clear eyes full of stories, and muttered in her heart, is this old lady the old monster hidden in the depths of the Tang Clan?

Before holding the cane and turning around, Mrs. Tang paused, "By the way, I haven't had a good appetite lately, and if it's too mediocre food, I may not have an appetite." ”

Very vague warning.

"Hey, is this an order?" Xia Yu stopped Mrs. Tang with a smile on her face.

"Order?"

Mrs. Tang was stunned for a moment, and heard what Xia Yu meant, she was not a judge, just a guest watching the competition, and according to the rules, she was not qualified to let the talents on the stage take special care.

"Sort of, if your cooking is approved by me, I won't eat the overlord meal, old lady. ”

The crutches hit the floor, and the clatter sound went away.

Xia Yu raised his head and raised his hand to the stunned master of ceremonies on the stage to apply: "With one more mouth, the ingredients may not be enough, can you provide more ingredients?"

The master of ceremonies came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly, "No problem!

So, in the next ten minutes, one after another aquatic trucks took the stage and exited, and hundreds of kitchen tables were distributed with enough live fish ingredients.

It is worth mentioning that the No. 1 kitchen counter where Xia Yu is located has two clear water basins, and in each basin there are 3 fresh 'Songjiang perch' swimming.

In these ten minutes, Xia Yu also thought of a recipe.

Sea bass?

In fact, the simplest and most convenient sea bass dish is still fish belly, that is, sashimi, sashimi.

However, considering that he didn't bring his kitchen utensils, including carving knives, ice knives or anything, he didn't prepare, in this way, there is a gap between the quality of the fish and his cooking skills, and it is easy to be disliked by Mrs. Tang and Wei Qinglian.

Therefore, not only for Xia Yu, but also for all the talents on stage, "fish tart" is the most difficult form of cooking to present.

"In the eight major cuisines, such as Shandong cuisine, Cantonese cuisine and Hunan cuisine, there are steamed sea bass and braised sea bass. ”

Xia Yu has a lot of sea bass recipes for major cuisines, and a random search in his head is a sea of words.

The sound of hot oil in pots began to be heard from the stage, and the other kitchen counters were moving.

Not far away, a busy teenager of the same age cast an observational gaze, seeing that there were shallots, sesame oil bottles, and pepper granules on the stage, Xia Yu nodded secretly, "Hey, if you start from the perspective of Sichuan cuisine, a fish dish, from the taste classification, there are spicy, sour and spicy, pepper and so on, such as pepper and sesame soaked sea bass, the method is to slaughter the sea bass, cut the fish into small pieces, first steam it over a strong fire, and then fry it with green onions, and then soak it in soup and pepper oil, and add seasonings, and a large pot of delicious fish soup is ......completed."

At this time, the staff came to Kitchen No. 1 and delivered a basket of ingredients.

"Chef Xia, this is the ingredient you asked for by name. ”

"Thank you!"

took the basket casually and put it on the table in front of him, Xia Yu didn't care about the camera around him.

Because basic seasonings such as salt, soy sauce, cooking wine, etc., are available on the kitchen counter, and the players do not need to ask for the logistics of the event, Xia Yu's food basket is less than many bottles and cans.

In addition to a few pieces of ginger and two shallots, Xia Yu kept taking out packets of medicinal herbs from the basket.

The medicinal materials were all wrapped in yellow paper, and when the camera came, Xia Yu opened a certain bag at will, and it turned out to be a few small particles that had been dried and gray in color.

Lowering his head and sniffing the faint astringency, Xia Yu's eyes lit up, "This white cardamom, the quality is quite good!"

"Huh, cardamom?"

The camera gave him a close-up of the medicinal herb bag in his hand, and there were discussions in all corners of the Longmen Pavilion, and many viewers recognized this ingredient. It is said that it is an ingredient, but in fact, it is also a taste of Chinese medicinal materials and spices.

In the private room, Li Han and Tang Yuqiong were condescending, looking down at the stage on the ground, and seeing Xia Yu at least take out seven or eight packets of medicinal materials from the basket, they couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.

Diet?

Suddenly, there was a lot of commotion in the venue because of Xia Yu's next move.

I opened the second yellow paper packet, which was very large and contained more than 20 black bean-like ingredients. Tang Yuqiong propped her hands on the windowsill, half of her body leaned out, and she stared at Xiu Xiu, "Tempeh?"

"Oh"

The competition hall was full of discussions, and people naturally paid the most attention to the boy with the nickname "Demon King", "Is he going to make tempeh bass?"

In another box in the Longmen Pavilion, Fan Jiaorou, Yuan Lanzhi and Mu Xiaoyue were present.

Fan Jiaorou, who had just eaten a closed soup at Xia Yu's place a few days ago, opened her mouth very wide, "Tempeh?"

"Is this a coincidence?"

It's no wonder that Fan Jiaorou thought about it a lot and was deeply shocked, three days ago she sent a notification letter and planned to ask Xia Yu to help her improve the spice recipe related to the tempeh, but she didn't expect that in today's audition, Xia Yu planned to use "tempeh" to cook dishes!
