Chapter 245: The Chick Pecks at the Rice Map
Compared with the Earl Hotel, the Bauhinia Hotel is obviously a step behind, but the high score of 26 points is also against the sky, these three food judges are not invited casually for five cents, when the three of them were young, they were all national special chefs, and they have worked in major famous restaurants.
It was not easy to get a high score in the mouths of the three of them.
Okay, next......
"The taste is on the bland side, I can only give you 7 points!"
"The presentation is a little worse, I only have 6 points on my side!"
"I personally don't like to eat sour, I'm sorry, I can only give you 6 points......"
……
Next, the dishes were tasted by the three judges one by one, and they also got scores one by one.
Overall, except for the first Earl's Hotel, which scored a super high score of 28 points, the rest of the scores were similar, most of them were between 23 and 25, and only a few scored more than 26 points.
"Okay, here's ......"
Obviously, because there are too many hotels, and Tianyutian, a broken hotel in the eighteenth-tier county, is not qualified to be remembered in particular, so Liu Jinlai temporarily forgot the name of the hotel participating in the competition, and finally could only wave to Ma Tianyao awkwardly.
"Hehe, little girl, that's all you have left ...... hotel?"
Ma Tianyao was holding a special porcelain bowl with the name of Tianyutian printed on it, and Liu Jinlai hurriedly added after seeing it.
"Now we are going to taste the last one, a beautiful chef from Tianyutian, hehe, this chef looks very young, according to the information submitted, she ...... Well...... She doesn't seem to be certified as a chef......"
This sentence made all the participating hotels bite their tongues again.
"I'm Cao, not a chef?"
"No wonder I can only make a white porridge......"
"In the end, it's a small hotel under the county, and it can't be compared with our big hotels. ”
In the eyes of all chefs, before the certification, everyone thinks that they are also chefs, but once they take the level certificate, they will never think that other chefs who have not been certified are chefs.
Ma Tianyao came to the three of them with the porcelain bowl in both hands, and the three judges who smiled and were a little disapproving looked down and only glanced at it, and the smile froze on their faces......
"This, this, this ......"
"It's incredible......"
"How the hell is this done?"
The reaction of the three judges surprised everyone below, pointing to the blue and white big names on the table, shocked beyond measure......
A group of chefs and hotel representatives next to him were really curious, and they also gathered around to watch the excitement, and when they saw it, everyone reacted the same as the three judges......
I saw that the sky blue and white bowl was crystal clear, and when I looked at it obliquely, it was like a still lake, clear to the bottom and shining. There are few rice grains in the middle of the bowl, and each grain is vertical, horizontal, and oblique, like embellishment and reflection in the stars in the lake, each shining with brilliance.
The most amazing thing is that, in addition to these, on top of the upper porridge noodles, there is also a 'chicken' protruding from the porridge noodles, which looks like a chicken standing on the surface of a calm and frozen lake......
The pale yellow shape makes this chick vivid, with its head down, its small mouth open and facing the plane of the bowl, and there are exactly three grains of rice on the bottom plane......
At first glance, it looks like a yellow fluffy chick foraging on the ice......
Liu Jinlai nodded excitedly and clapped his hands vigorously, laughing and praising him.
"Seconds, seconds, what a second!! simple honey can make such a plating !!"
Huang Hao next to him nodded in agreement.
"Yes, a kind of honey, but can make two colors, through the precise control of the heat, first mix the previous honey with rice, mountain spring water and boil it into a transparent color, and then use the true color of honey to decorate it into a chicken pattern, it's just amazing!! right, do you have anything to say about this plating?"
Everyone looked at Ma Tianyao, only to see her pretending to be B for a moment, pinching her chin and nodding her head.
"This picture shows a chicken eating rice, so I gave it a common name, called the chicken pecking rice picture......"
The crowd of onlookers almost fell down......
Everyone shook their heads, secretly saying that it was a pity that such a good chicken was in the hands of this master, and it was a waste......
Xu Guanghua's eyes flashed, and he asked her with a smile.
"I saw you adjusting the temperature of the freezer back and forth just now, I'm afraid it's not a fool's errand, right?"
Ma Tianyao said with a smile.
"Hehe, such a serious game, how can I play blindly, just because after the porridge is boiled, it needs to be cooled naturally, but you only stipulate an hour, there is not enough time, and the freezer will make it up.
However, if the cold porridge just out of the pot is directly put into the freezer, due to the low temperature in the refrigerator, the water contained in the boiling water will evaporate sharply and then solidify on the internal evaporator, forming a thick frost layer, blocking the evaporator from transferring the heat in the refrigerator to the outside, which affects the refrigeration effect.
Moreover, the thermostat probe is also wrapped in a frost layer, which cannot detect the temperature in the box, so that the compressor stops working, resulting in the inability to refrigerate. That's why I opened the freezer to dispel the mist to prevent condensation, and when the temperature dropped, I naturally turned up the temperature and closed the freezer door......"
The onlookers next to him were stupid, and said Nima, you are engaged in freezer maintenance, right?
Xu Guanghua nodded again and again when he heard it, and praised in surprise.
"I've always stressed that a great chef is more than just cooking, and now it seems that I am right. ”
Liu Jinlai nodded solemnly in agreement.
"Yes, it is enough to see from the production and presentation of this cold porridge that the little girl not only understands the principle of the operation of the freezer, but also can accurately control the heat, temperature and time, this ability, I am ashamed of my !!"
The people next to him were stupid, and said in their hearts that I Cao, Liu Jinlai is a super first-class chef, it is said that he once represented the country in the World Chef Competition, although he did not get the ranking in the end, but this is enough to prove how good he is, I didn't expect that today in front of a little girl, he actually admitted that he was inferior to the other party? Are you sure this is not a deliberate compliment?
"Little girl, what's your name, and which one is the master?"
From Liu Jin's point of view, it is absolutely impossible for the other party to be self-taught at this level, there must be guidance from a master, and he has definitely been cultivated since he was a child.
Who knew that Ma Tianyao shook his head lightly and explained with a smile.
"My name is Ma Tianyao, there is no master, this porridge is just made more times, so it is better than others......"
Liu Jinlai let out a meaningful sigh, thinking that it was inconvenient for the other party to say, and he didn't dig deeper, sighed, regained his expression, and commented seriously.
It not only tests the chef's calculation of the heat, temperature and time, but also considers the chef's mastery of the perfect ratio of water, rice and honey.
Especially the addition of honey, honey itself has a floral fragrance and sweetness, to do not suppress the rice aroma, but also to make its gain amplification complement each other, this is very difficult, the most difficult may be the temperature and time control of the freezer, it is not an exaggeration to say, if you don't do half a year and a year, I can't make the most perfect ......"
Liu Jinlai talked a lot endlessly, and the first-class chefs and special chefs below listened very seriously, but Ma Tianyao was amazed, and said in his heart, I Cao, who is this little old man, I only saw that I did it once, and I actually said a thing, seven or eight eight, which is exactly the same as what Bai Feng, the god of food, told him at the beginning.
Huang Hao next to him thought for a moment and raised his doubts.
"That'...... Can this porridge add other ingredients? Just adding honey seems to be a bit monotonous......"
Liu Jinlai's mouth opened, and finally shook his head with a wry smile.
"Master Huang, you underestimate the difficulty of this, simply add a honey, you have to refer to the fragrance, sweetness and other related fits, if you add another ingredient, you have to take into account even the fused honey, can be added, but without a year and a half of research, I ask myself if I can't add another one to it, and it will not destroy the original structure of the ingredients!!"
The people listening next to him were shocked, but then everyone frowned and thought, most of these people are first-class chefs, and they have a deep knowledge of food, Ma Tianyao can make it if she does it, but let her say it, she can't tell it.
Liu Jinlai shook his head with emotion, and then carefully picked up the spoon, as if facing a work of art, slowly, slowly, put a spoonful of cold porridge into his mouth.
"It melts in the mouth, and the taste is like the first melting of ice and snow in March, delicious, delicious...... Cold porridge is not cold, soft as jade!!"
Huang Hao and Xu Guanghua couldn't wait for a long time, so they hurriedly picked up the spoon and tasted it, and immediately hummed and praised it with a smile.
"Yes, refreshing and springy, after chewing in the mouth, the floral and rice aroma is rich, like separation, and seems to be intertwined, slightly sweet and not greasy......"
These two have not finished boasting, Liu Jinlai has already raised his cards with a smile and scored.
"This time, I will make an exception and give you 10 points for this cold porridge!!"
Wow!
The crowd at the scene immediately became lively, but the most surprising thing was Zheng Guangming, who slapped his thigh and shouted hello fiercely!
Huang Hao and Xu Guanghua glanced at each other, and then spoke.
"Hehe, there is no doubt that maybe your cooking skills are not very good, or maybe you don't have a special or first-class chef level, but I have to say, in terms of this bowl of porridge alone, I am not as good as you, so I can only give you 10 points!"
Xu Guanghua smiled and said.
"Hehe, Mr. Liu has given you 10 points, I must also be 10 points, congratulations, so many contestants, you are still the first ...... to get a full score"
Bang bang bang bang bang ......
Liu Jinlai took the lead in applauding, and the chefs below also applauded.
"Hehe, okay, let's rest for ten minutes and prepare for the knife competition. ”
Hearing this, Zheng Guangming completely let go of the heart hanging in his stomach......
