Chapter 194: Against Luo Badao (4)

After a long time of stirring and straining, the soup in the barrel is now transparent and slightly yellowish, like a fine rice wine that has just come out of the cellar. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

When I got closer, a faint aroma came to my nose, which lifted the whole person's spirit.

"Well, that's good!" Liu Mang nodded again and again, very satisfied with the results of his nearly three hours of labor.

"Little Wu, help me prepare the soup cup and plates, I'm going to start blanching the cabbage!"

"Okay!" finally waited for the main event, and Five Eyes hurriedly lined up dozens of fist-sized soup cups on the table.

Liu Mang took out a large spoon and took another large bucket to divide the prepared clear soup in half.

Then use a large colander to hold the processed cabbage hearts, and then use a frying spoon to scoop up the piping hot broth and pour it over and over again.

This 'watering' technique is also the unique feature of this 'boiling cabbage'.

After blanching the cabbage sum, rinse it with water, remove the fishiness of the vegetables, and then pour it with 'boiling water' chicken broth until it is blanched.

The blanched cabbage broth should be discarded, and the blanched cabbage sum should be put into the bottom of the cup, and finally the fresh chicken broth should be gently poured in, and the dish will be considered successful.

It can also be seen from this that the exquisiteness of this 'boiling cabbage' uses so many good materials and takes a lot of effort, and in the end, more than half of it has to be discarded.

Liu Mang held a colander in one hand and a soup spoon in the other, and poured the clear soup in the spoon on the cabbage heart slowly and orderly.

Again... Twice... Four times... Five times......

After nine times of pouring and using up most of the bucket of clear soup, the cabbage sum of this 'boiling cabbage' is finally blanched.

Liu Mang used chopsticks to carefully put the choy sum into the soup cup that had been arranged. Just as I was about to pour in the fresh chicken broth, I announced that the dish was finished. The bell on Luo Badao's side suddenly rang, and his 'Buddha jumping over the wall' was actually the first to complete!

"Don't worry! We're not in a hurry!" Liu Mang said when he saw a hint of panic on his face when he saw Wuyan who was arranging the plate.

Hearing the bell of Luo Badao, the judges and the audience in the hall were in high spirits.

Because of these two dishes, the waiting time is so long that many people's butts are numb in their chairs.

Luo Badao's assistant had already set up the soup bowl, ready to welcome the opening of this dish that gathered a large number of rare ingredients and attracted countless eyes.

"Judges, please come to the stage! My 'Buddha jumping over the wall', at the moment when the altar is opened, is the time when the aroma is the strongest!" Luo Badao, who was wearing asbestos gloves, hugged the wine jar to the board, picked up the microphone and said.

"Good!good!good!" Han Shaobai laughed: "Brother Tan Shi, it is said that when the real 'Buddha jumps over the wall' opens the altar, the fragrance can float for ten miles, let's go up and see it together!"

When the judges walked onto the platform, Luo Badao lifted the lid of the wine jar and carefully tore off the lotus leaves covering the altar.

As the lotus leaves were peeled off, a thick hot air mixed with a strong strange fragrance gushed out from the mouth of the wine jar.

"It's fragrant!" the surrounding judges couldn't help but sniff and exclaim.

This fragrance is like substance, wafting and wafting, only drilling into the nostrils of people, like using a feather, teasing people's taste nerves. Let all the judges present can't help but stir their Adam's apple.

Moreover, the aroma was so strong that after only a minute or two, the whole hall was occupied.

Most of the audience in the auditorium had their eyes slightly closed, already intoxicated by the aroma.

How do you describe this aroma?

Let's put it this way, the scent feels like mixing several expensive bottles of perfume together and spraying them together – passionate, intense and timeless.

"Oh my God, this smell is too strong, you smell my clothes, and you get caught in this smell in a few moments!" said one viewer, pulling his sleeve to the end of his nose.

"The host is right! Real food can stand up to waiting! I can smell such an aroma, and let me wait for four or five hours, it will be worth it!" said his companion next to him excitedly.

"There is no suspense! This Luo Badao has won! Because I really can't think of any other dish that can beat this 'Buddha jumping over the wall'!"

"Yes! It's a dish made with a lot of expensive ingredients! It's worth the money! No, even if it's expensive, I'll try it again in the future! Otherwise, I'll have regrets in my life!" said another viewer, wiping the saliva from the back of his hand.

"It's a pity! I was optimistic about that Liu Mang at the beginning, but now I see that he has been defeated!" Not only the audience, but even the judges on the stage, many of them secretly thought in their hearts.

"Luo Badao is really a dark horse! maybe he can really make him the top of this year's kitchen god!" said another judge.

"Boss, it really smells so good! do you smell it?" said Wuyan, who was wiping his plate, sniffed.

"I smell it early! My nose is not an ornament!" Liu Mang, who was adjusting the shape of the soup cup and cabbage sum with chopsticks, raised his head and said.

"It's not good, can we still win?" asked Five-Eyes with a worried look on his face.

"Of course I can win, the dishes of Luo Badao and I are different!" Liu Mang laughed.

"Huh, what's the difference?" asked Five-Eyes, surprised.

"Luo's 'Buddha jumping over the wall' is stewed with all kinds of rare ingredients in Chinese cooking. This is just like a business tycoon, at the peak of his life, he is rich and noble! It seems to be bland, but it is actually light and flavorful, just like a general who returns from a hundred battles and returns to the countryside after becoming famous. It's two completely different realms, and if you really want to compare them together, it's really hard to say whether you'll win or lose!"

"I seem to understand, but I don't seem to understand!" "Five-eyed scratched the back of his head, his face confused.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, just do it in front of you!" Liu Mang laughed again: "Ready, let's start serving the food too!"

The cameraman carried the camera up to the platform and aimed at the entrance of the altar with the 'Buddha jumping over the wall'.

As Luo Badao used a wooden spoon to divide the dishes in the jar into small bowls, a louder exclamation rang out.

The various ingredients in the jar have been sealed and stewed for a long time, which has forced out all the gum and color contained in the jar.

The wooden spoon is golden and brilliant. This yellow, really, is made of pure gold, emitting a sparkling light.

Its soup is different from Liu Mang's clear soup, but slightly thicker, like freshly cut honey. As the ingredients pass out of the altar, the strange fragrance brought by them becomes more and more intense.

Abalone, shark fin, sea cucumber, fish maw... The ingredients are treated separately and stewed together until they become soft and wrapped in a golden broth.

Just one look at it will make you think of its wonderful taste.

"The altar opens the meat incense and floats all around, and the Buddha abandons Zen and jumps over the wall! The name is well deserved! The name is worthy of it!" Even the well-informed Han Shaobai and Tan Shi were also amazed at this moment. (To be continued.) )
