Chapter 482: Potato Feast Version 2.0
"The first topic: potatoes. β
Jiang Yan announced the topic decided by the judges, and then continued: "Potato, also known as potato, is a perennial herb of the Solanaceae family, and the tuber is edible, and it is the third most important food crop in the world, after wheat and corn. β
Potatoes are one of the most common and common vegetables, and they are all over the world and can be accepted by people all over the world.
"Potato tubers are rich in dietary fiber, which helps to promote gastrointestinal motility and unblock the intestines. It is rich in potassium salts and belongs to alkaline foods. In addition to this, the tubers of potatoes also contain carotene and ascorbic acid, which are not found in cereal grains. From a nutritional point of view, it has more advantages than rice and flour, and can provide a lot of heat to the human body, which can be called "perfect food". Potatoes and whole milk alone are enough to sustain life and health. Because the nutritional content of potatoes is very comprehensive, the nutritional structure is also reasonable, but the amount of protein, calcium and vitamin A is slightly lower, and this happens to be supplemented with whole milk. β
When the contestants were choosing ingredients and thinking about what food should be made, Jiang Yan began to popularize science for the audience.
"Oh, I see, no wonder the British eat potatoes all day long!"
Yi Jingjiao suddenly realized, then took out a piece of fries, asked for half, and fed He Chen half. This is authentic British french fries, and it was also brought by He Chen to participate in the food festival.
He Chen's face turned dark, his mouth was closed, and he never opened his mouth, Yi Jingjiao was not discouraged, and persistently "fed" the fries to He Chen.
In the end, Yi Jingjiao had a victorious smile on her face, and He Chen looked dead.
"Potato tubers have more water, less fat, and are quite low in calories per unit volume, and contain about four times more vitamin C than apples. There are 4 times more B vitamins than apples. Various minerals range from several times to dozens of times that of apples. Potatoes are also a blood pressure lower food. β
"Potatoes have anti-aging properties. It is rich in B vitamins such as vitamins B1, B2, B6 and pantothenic acid, as well as a large amount of high-quality fiber, as well as nutrients such as trace elements, amino acids, proteins, fats and high-quality starch. β
"Potatoes are rich in dietary fiber, and some sources say that they contain as much as apples. Therefore, the absorption of potatoes by the stomach and intestines is slower, and after eating potatoes, they stay in the intestines for a longer time than rice, so they are more satiety, and at the same time, they can also help take away some fat and garbage. It has a certain laxative and detoxifying effect. β
"Potatoes are carbohydrates, but they contain only about 1/4 of the same weight of rice. Studies have shown that the starch in potatoes is a resistant starch that has the effect of shrinking fat cells. Potatoes are a very good high-potassium and low-sodium food, which is very suitable for edematous obese people, and its rich potassium content is almost the highest among vegetables, so it also has the effect of weight loss. β
"And it also has great medicinal value, can be used to treat stomach pain, ribs, carbuncles, eczema, burns, and stomach health Chinese medicine and antidote and swelling medicine. Flat and sweet. Modern research has proven that potatoes have a special effect on regulating indigestion. It is a good medicine and high-quality health care product for patients with stomach problems and heart diseases. It contains antimicrobial ingredients that help prevent stomach ulcers, and it not only has an antibacterial effect, but also does not cause antimicrobial resistance. β
Since it can be used as a world-class staple food, potatoes naturally have their huge advantages.
Listening to Jiang Yan's introduction to potatoes, Yi Jingjiao's eyes are getting brighter and brighter - anti-aging, weight loss!
Her mind was occupied by these two words, which for any girl could be compared to the lethality of a nuclear weapon!
He Chen no longer feeds French fries, and he eats French fries in his mouth more and more happily.
"Potatoes have anti-aging and weight loss benefits, but french fries obviously don't...... There are a lot of fat people in Europe and the United States. β
As if in revenge for Yi Jingjiao who just stuffed French fries in her mouth, He Chen pretended to inadvertently remind Yi Jingjiao when she had already eaten a lot.
Fried food - this is an objective fact that cannot be ignored, although this kind of food tastes really good, but even the most nutritious food, after a lot of oil to fry, will become junk food. Fried foods are extremely high in calories and fat, and long-term intake can lead to obesity or some related diseases.
This is the exact opposite of Yi Jingjiao's goal of weight loss and anti-aging.
Yi Jingjiao's hand stiffened, and the fries that had already been taken in the air were slowly put into the paper bag, and then elegantly stuffed the paper bag into He Chen's bag.
This is the easiest and most common food, but the simpler it is, the more difficult it is to compete. Making the simplest and most common ingredient into an outstanding taste is the most challenging skill of a chef.
The official competition only limits the time of the game, but does not limit the number, after all, this is a world-class competition, and it is natural to meet the specifications of "world-class".
If you're only going to have one or two specials, go home early.
Customers don't care what kind of dishes you will make, and as a special chef, you must make all customers in Tiannan and Haibei satisfied, otherwise how dare you call a "special grade"?
Therefore, in the official competition, the chefs are given the maximum room to play, and the questions are very open!
The competition also allows these chefs to bring assistants to assist them and save time.
However, there is one exception.
That's Asamiko, who was promoted from the voice team, and she was the only one of all the chefs who didn't bring an assistant - there were so many foodies at home, and this amount of cooking was commonplace for Asamiko.
Other top chefs didn't take Asamiko to heart at first, thinking that she was just an "ordinary" person, and Tianman's activities allowed its dubbing to participate, and Bobo's eyeballs and fame were not a big deal. Even the onlookers felt the same way, after all, compared to other chefs who are all in charge of the world's famous catering industry, Asamiko is just a dubbing, and people subconsciously think that her cooking skills belong to the top level among ordinary people, and there is no comparison with professional chefs.
The chefs' main competitors are the well-known chefs (touches) next to them, but they soon realize that they are very wrong. Compared to Asamiko. They are the real "ordinary people"!
I saw that Asamiko looked relaxed. Her mouth seemed to hum some tune, but her subordinates gently cut the ingredients into the shapes she needed in a flicker of cold light.
The gorgeous knife work, in contrast to her relaxed and freehand attitude, caused people to exclaim, took out their mobile phones and directly turned on the video recording function, and filmed this Asamiko.
ββ¦β¦ Hiss, suddenly discovered. Asamiko isn't that stupid and cute. He Chen touched his chin and looked at Asamiko carefully.
So it became natural, if it weren't for the comparison with the group of top chefs next to him, He Chen wouldn't have noticed that Asamiko's cooking skills had reached this point now.
He thought to himself, should I consider replacing the main character of the food manga he was preparing?
Speaking of potatoes, what can be made?
Most people think of roasting, boiling, frying, shredding, dicing, mashing, etc., but do you think that's the end of it?
To think of this, it is just a mortal Cheng dΓΉ, if you want to reach the level of a special chef. It's about breaking through the limits of mortals!
Potatoes can be processed into flour......
What can be processed into flour and what can it be done?
That's a lot of change!
The flour piece next to it is clearly marked with potato flour. It has already been explained that a qiΔ.
Speaking of the country of potatoes, some people may think that the UK is ...... Or maybe European chefs have a natural advantage, they must be the best at eating these all day long, right?
However, in the first game, Asamiko completely refreshed people's eyes.
It didn't stop for a moment, the whole process of cooking was like a cloud loss, organized, N dishes were cooked at the same time, but there was no mistake in the process of each dish, even the heat could make me just right, this kind of miraculous performance, stunned a group of people - in fact, it is already used to the habitual method of making N food for many people by one person.
They are all very common ingredients, but when they reach Asamiko's hands, it is as if they have applied magic, and in the blink of an eye, they turn into exquisite dishes.
A total of one hundred and eight dishes...... I was stunned by the audience, stunned by the other chefs, and even stunned by the judges.
It's hard to believe that the main ingredient of these mouth-watering dishes is potatoes!
Compared to Asamiko, the British no longer dare to say that they can eat potatoes.
"It's not cooking, it's magic!"
A European judge gave an incredulous high opinion of Aamiko.
All of this was done in front of the public, and there was no possibility of fraud.
"It's delicious, 10 points!" Ling Yan was very happy to eat, and brought her a plate, swept a plate, served a plate, swept a plate, and swept a plate, although the judges used small plates when they tasted it, but with the addition of other chefs, there were hundreds of dishes, and Ling Yan swept them all away.
Her belly is also truly amazing, but here it is overshadowed by Asamiko's light.
Speaking of which, in fact, it was her belly that cultivated Asamiko's gorgeous cooking skills.
Potato Feast 2.0. In fact, she is also lucky, I am afraid that no one in the world except her will specialize in the 108 methods of potatoes.
After knowing that He Chen "loves" potatoes, Asamiko devoted herself to studying various cooking techniques of potatoes, integrating the essence of the world, comparing the Manchu and Han banquets, and making a potato feast that shocked the world!
To her regret, He Chen never let her make potato-related food. This competition is about this topic, so she simply made it, wanting to see the reaction of others and improve it by the way.
It's luck, but it's also strength. This is her complete original dish, and she can make 108 dishes with potatoes as the main ingredient, and her cooking skills have reached the pinnacle.
No, it's not cooking anymore, it's art! (To be continued......
PS: The third part of "9999 Ways to Die for Porters":
Asamiko (shy): Chen-kun, Chen-kun, I have developed version 2.0 of the potato deluxe feast for you, a total of one hundred and eight dishes, please, please taste it!
He Chen, pawn.
