The dough with mutton fat is fluffy and shiny after it has been allowed to rise for a while. He Xuanxuan took off a piece, kneaded it slightly, added some chopped green onions, sprinkled with a little salt, rolled it into a round cake, and put it in the electric baking pan.

A few minutes later, the lid of the electric baking pan was lifted, and the smell was filled, and three mutton fat cakes were out of the pan, each with a golden color and a crispy crust. In particular, the strong aroma of the lamb and the burnt aroma of the green onions after being roasted blend together in a way that makes you drool when you smell it.

The three mutton fat cakes were cut into small long pieces by He Xuanxuan, two pieces were placed on each plate, and served to the judges together with the service staff next to them.

At this time, Zang Jinliang just finished doing it, and walked over with his hands on the mutton. Because the ingredients are only two catties, Zang Jinliang can only cut the mutton into small pieces because of his ugliness, and insert bamboo slices on each piece of meat as a handle.

"Let's bring it together!" said the referee. The two contestants happened to meet together, and let the judges taste the dishes separately, making it easier to distinguish the high and low.

There are a total of 64 contestants this afternoon, and they are all making mutton, and if all seven judges eat it with their stomachs open, I am afraid it will break their stomachs. Therefore, the judges are very cautious, and each time they taste, they only taste a little, and if they are in doubt, they will taste it again.

Rao is like this, and after eating it so far, several judges already feel that their stomachs are a little supported.

After the judges rinsed their mouths, they began to taste the dishes of He Xuanxuan and Zang Jinliang.

The mutton fat cake had just been baked, the temperature and taste were just right, and they made eye contact, as if they had discussed it, and first cut off a piece of mutton fat cake with a knife to taste.

A piece about the size of a fingernail is cut off, forked into the mouth with a fork, held slowly at first, and then gently bitten off with your teeth.

"Smack!"

The sweetness of starch, the aroma of mutton fat, and the pungent aroma of chopped green onions are all contained in that "pop". The crispy crust and the flexible and flexible core make people want to take another small bite.

After all, the high-level judges are more determined, and as soon as this idea came to them, they quickly drove it away.

In fact, just a small bite of mutton fat cake is enough to judge the chef's accomplishments in cooking.

As the chief judge, Wu Tianba did not just smell it and decide the score as before. After seeing the mutton fat cake this time, he picked up a rare piece, put it in his mouth and chewed it, looking quite satisfied.

After eating one piece, I ate another piece on the plate.

The other judges put down their knives and forks and looked at him fixedly, their eyes full of doubt.

Wu Tianba smiled, pointed to the empty plate and said, "The taste of my hometown, I haven't eaten it for a long time, it's still old." ”

After speaking, he took a sip of milky mutton soup along the edge of the bowl, the soup was rich and delicious, although a few slices of mutton were cut a little thinly, but the taste was not salty or light. The coriander just suppressed the faint smell of the mutton and made it fresh.

When the hot soup was entered, the sweat on Wu Tianba's body came out, and the air conditioner couldn't hold it down. In the hot weather, he felt surprisingly comfortable with a hot sweat.

The 6 judges saw that Wu Tianba was enjoying eating, and they all knew it. But let them score according to their conscience, He Xuanxuan's package is also very good.

The mutton soup with mutton fat cake not only makes perfect use of mutton, but also does not cause waste at all, and it is very well matched, which can see He Xuanxuan's good intentions.

After tasting He Xuanxuan's set meal, the judges began to taste Zang Jinliang's hand-handled mutton.

This dish is very simple, the lamb is boiled in plain water, the meat is rotten, and then dipped in fine salt to eat, but it is not easy to really make a little color.

The first is the processing of mutton, the rough chef slaughters the sheep and cooks it directly, accompanied by the smell of fishy food. Some people like this kind of meal, but not all diners can enjoy the smell of bloody mutton.

Therefore, when Zang Jinliang was handling the mutton, he carried out fine washing, and cleaned all the blood and water in the meat until there was nothing at all. Then soak it in cold water and boil it on fire, and put shallots, red ginger, tender garlic, peppercorns, peppercorns and other flavors in the soup. In the process of cooking, the foam must be skimmed off continuously, and finally the soup must become clear and transparent, and the figure can be found to be qualified.

The mutton cooked in this way is fat and thin, without a trace of peculiar smell, and is eaten directly with salt, which is both tender and delicious. If you don't feel like it's enough, you can dip it in minced garlic or chili pepper, which is a different flavor.

After tasting the hand-handled lamb, the judges fell silent. These two dishes can be said to have their own characteristics, and it is difficult to distinguish them for a while.

In addition to Wu Tianba, the 6 judges got together and discussed in a whisper, and finally they unanimously decided to decide who won and who lost by voting on the spot. In this regard, Wu Tianba also agreed.

The referee announced the decision on the spot, and asked for the opinions of He Xuanxuan and Zang Jinliang, who thought about it and nodded in agreement. Because other than that, there doesn't seem to be a better solution, you can't always score the same two and both enter the next round, right?

"Voting begins!" the referee announced.

Soon, the voting ended, and the result was that the six judges were divided into two factions, with He Xuanxuan and Zang Jinliang each getting three votes.

The scene was silent, and everyone in the audience focused on Wu Tianba, who held the most critical vote, and whoever he voted for would enter the next round.

In the Le Food Workshop, Mo Fei, Yan Cuishan, Li Qinghua, Chen Yansheng, and Gao Hua all held their breath and watched this scene nervously.

They all knew that it was not that He Xuanxuan was not outstanding, but that this ingredient was too beneficial to Zang Jinliang. If you change to another ingredient, maybe He Xuanxuan crushed Zang Jinliang.

That's the hallmark of the tournament system – you can't win a game because you're strong!

In the limelight, Wu Tianba picked up a piece of mutton with a fork, sniffed it gently, put it down, and then said to Zang Jinliang with an extremely indifferent expression: "Not bad." ”

Wow!

The scene resounded.

The word "good" is a rare praise given by Wu Tianba. Most of the time, he just glances at it, doesn't even want to smell it, and gives a rough score at a glance.

Five-star masters, with this capital, also have this strength.

"It's a pity to lose, it's so rare to have such a temperamental female chef, and I still want to see her ......"

"Alas, doing this line of work, women are congenitally disadvantaged!"

"Appearance does not mean strength, her opponent is really strong. ”

"What is stronger, I think he is a lot worse than He Xuanxuan, the food advantage is just that!"

said everything on the scene, but there are still many people who regret it, after all, He Xuanxuan's appearance is very popular.

Yan Cuishan looked disappointed, but he was helpless, so he had to sigh again and again, crying out for the little sister.

Li Qinghua and Chen Yansheng also sighed, according to He Xuanxuan's strength, this was a crushing game!

"She hasn't lost yet......" Murphy said softly, perhaps only he had hope that He Xuanxuan would win the match.

On the stage, Zang Jinliang heard Wu Tianba's words, smiled a little happily, and nodded his head again and again to thank him. It is not easy to get the praise of a five-star master.

He glanced at He Xuanxuan a little, and saw that her expression was as usual, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart, it's all at this time, and he still pretends to be indifferent, it won't be long, I'm afraid I'm going to cry.

After the noise subsided, the audience calmed down again, and everyone looked at Wu Tianba, wanting to hear what he was going to say next.

Wu Tianba was calm as usual, squinted slightly, and said to He Xuanxuan: "If this vote in my hand can be divided into two halves, I want to give you half of each." But according to the rules, this is not allowed. Well, it's a pity......"

Stone hammered.

Yan Cuishan fell on the seat in a gloomy manner, Li Qinghua shook his head gently, Chen Yansheng said "It's a pity" repeatedly, although Gao Hua was silent, his heart was full of regret.

Mo Fei was unwilling, but he tried his best to maintain his demeanor on his face.

Is that how you lost?

That's He Xuanxuan, a genius chef in the capital!
