Chapter 236: Duel, Tuna! (Lower middle)
Approaching 9 o'clock, a minibus drove into the compound of the Food Association, and the international referee Liao Yuan and the five judges got off the bus one after another. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Then, four or five more black cars stopped, and Hirobumi Ito, the consul of the Neon State, and Zhou Yuguang, an official of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, got out of the cars first, and then seven or eight foreigners got out of the cars.
These foreigners are also envoys to China, and the embassies of the United States, France, Italy, Spain, and other countries were invited by Ito Hirobumi.
You know, today's high-end cuisine is dominated by neon and French cuisine, sushi, foie gras, truffles, caviar, and wine. Although Chinese cuisine has a long history and the eight major cuisines are broad and profound, it has not achieved its due position in the world's high-end catering market, and is basically at the same level as Italy and Spain.
Even, many culinary masters in Huaxia have gone to Neon Country to learn cooking in order to gain high international influence.
In this competition, Ito Hirobumi invited envoys from several countries to come, one is to witness the invincibility of neon chefs, and the other is to show the charm of neon catering, because he knows that Okawa Sawahito's junior brother, a small fifth-level chef, cannot win.
Mayor Chen of Canghai City led the way in front and led the group into the competition hall, and the scene after sitting down made it even more interesting.
The audience seat below the competition hall was divided into three parts by the aisle, Mo Fei came early and was arranged to the innermost area, Hu Chuan Longhai and others sat in the outermost area, and the envoys of the newly arrived embassies and consulates sat in the middle front row area.
With Okawa Zeren and his friends coming one after another, the area where Hu Chuan Longhai was located was basically full, and although there were not many people in the middle, there were more than a dozen. And in the area where Murphy is located, he is the only one in the big place, and he seems to be alone.
But Mo Fei didn't seem to care, he was closing his eyes to recuperate, and the initial tension and throbbing had already disappeared.
The game started immediately, and the referee Liao Yuan walked up to the stage, when the door was quietly pushed open, and a few more people came in outside. They held their breath and sat quietly behind Murphy.
Mo Fei opened his eyes sensitively, glanced back, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The person who came was none other than Ge Liang, Gao Hua, Yan Cuishan, Su Muge, and of course, Yu Xiaoyu.
After seeing Mo Fei, they all nodded at him, and Yu Xiaoyu opened his mouth wide and tried to make a lip shape, meaning to say, "Boss, you are too unrighteous enough, why don't you call me."
"The game is about to start, so ask Chef to come to the front. The referee Liao Yuan got straight to the point, omitting the red tape of introducing the guests, and went straight to the point.
Liao Yuan continued: "The theme of this competition is 'tuna', are you both ready with the ingredients? If not, you can choose from the cold storage of the Food Association. ”
This sentence is the procedure as it should be. Of course, there is tuna in the cold storage of the Food Association, but it is all frozen hard pieces of meat, I don't know if it is stored in the year of the dog, although it can still be eaten, but the taste is terrible.
Seeing the two nodding, Liao Yuan motioned to show the ingredients to the judges and the audience to show that he had not cheated on the ingredients.
Mo Fei opened the incubator first, let the judges look at it, and then walked in front of the audience and asked them to verify it. The judges were silent after watching it, and the audience, especially the chefs brought by Zhu Yanming and Okawa Zeren, were confused.
"Haha, do you see, his piece of fish seems to be bad. ”
"That's right, I seem to smell stinky fish. ”
"I think it's a piece of aged fish, does he dare to use this kind of meat in the competition?"
"What a fearless man is the ignorant!"
……
After those envoys saw it, although they didn't know much about the quality of the ingredients, they could also see some clues, and they covered their noses and shook their heads.
Ge Liang let out a long sigh and said to Gao Hua beside him: "Do you say that our boss Mo is stupid, you can tell me in advance, a fresh tuna is not unavailable." ”
"Don't worry, maybe Boss Mo has a plan. While Gao Hua comforted Ge Liang, he was also comforting himself.
Yan Cuishan didn't say a word, his eyes turned quickly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Su Muge asked in a low voice on the side, "Elder Yan, what do you think?"
He stroked his goatee and said, "I don't understand it either, but Boss Mo chose aged meat, and he must have the bottom in his heart." ”
Yu Xiaoyu roared anxiously and said, "What are you afraid of, you have to have confidence in my boss!"
The referee Liao Yuan gestured to the judges, and then said: "After the judges judged, there is no problem with Mo Fei's ingredients, it is tuna meat." ”
Then, Hu Chuan Longhai also opened the incubator, which turned out to be half a tuna, more than a meter long, divided into two along the ridgeline, the silver bright skin flashed with light, there was no trace of scar on the skin, and it was the masterpiece of a very experienced old fisherman.
When the box was opened, even the eyes of the five judges lit up. They had to be moved, because such fresh tuna can only be seen in professional seafood markets, and it is difficult to encounter them in events above the star level, let alone such low-level friendly matches.
It is no exaggeration to say that with such fresh tuna ingredients, it is almost certain that the opponent will lose. Sometimes, it doesn't mean that good cooking doesn't mean you win, and the ingredients also play a big role.
Besides, Hu Chuan Longhai is an eighth-level professional chef, while Mo Fei is only a fifth-level chef, the gap in the realm and the absolute crushing of ingredients are clear to anyone - the game has not even started, and it is already doomed.
The attitude of the judges is basically the same as that of the audience. The judges were still reserved, and they remained silent except for their eyes and faces, while the outermost stands were already full of cheers.
"Oh my God, does that still need to be compared?"
"The referee just ends the game, so it is also merciful to the opponent!"
"What am I talking about, that Mo Fei is humiliating himself, and he uses fermented fish to fool things without good ingredients, get out of here!"
……
Okawa Zeren smiled slightly, what his friends around him said was right, taking that piece of aged meat to compete, did he still think he was a star chef, he was too self-conscious.
Neon's consul Ito Hirobumi was very happy, his good friend Okawa Zehito invited him to watch the game, and thought it would be a wonderful battle, but he didn't expect to see the beginning and predict the result, although he was happy, he still had a little regret.
He smiled reservedly and joked to the envoy friend beside him: "See, this is the freshest ingredient, the specialty of my great neon country, you can taste it in a while, it's really delicious." ”
Several envoys nodded one after another, in today's world, neon catering has long been popular all over the world with its fresh taste and beautiful color matching, coupled with exquisite ideas and ingenious tableware. Even in this low-level competition, the freshest ingredients can still be brought out, and Neon Dining truly lives up to its name and is breathtaking.
"Damn it!"
Ge Liang said hatefully: "Isn't it great to have fresh tuna, Lao Tzu can get it too!"
Gao Hua glanced at him and said in a disdainful tone: "Boy, don't talk nonsense here, give you a day, you can't buy such fresh tuna if you have money." ”
Ge Liang was stunned for a moment, and asked Yan Cuishan without giving up: "Teacher Yan, you are fair, can't you really buy it?"
Yan Cuishan nodded, "The tuna we eat is basically imported, and there is only sporadic distribution along the coast of our country, and the tuna caught by the ocean-going fleet is basically not in the eyes of the chefs because of poor preservation." Mr. Gao is right, it is true that money can't buy it. ”
"***!" Ge Liang scolded.
Maybe Yu Xiaoyu in the audience turned a deaf ear, turned a blind eye, clenched his little fist, and pouted his cheeks to secretly cheer for Mo Fei.
Looking at this situation, Mayor Chen, who was sitting in the front row, had a sad look crawling on his eyebrows, but he still had a smile on the corner of his mouth, chatting with Zhou Yuguang, an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
