Not far below the No. 5 ring, Fang Yuan's face showed a rare confusion, a pair of small eyes looked at the sky, and murmured softly, but he didn't know that in a remote ring dozens of zhang away, Wang Yan took advantage of the gap in pickling, and had already selected the raw materials suitable for carving among the many raw materials, and began the production of the third link.

Carving is not only an art, but also an indispensable part of the kitchen, according to Wang Yan in the kitchen to get some information, and then after synthesizing some of the Oriental College library collections, he also has a deeper understanding of carving.

Although there is no specific level of carving, from a certain aspect, it is related to the level of cooking, a Huang Pin master carved out of the food carving, and the gap between the Xuan Pin is very obvious, and after a certain realm, even if the carved food carving, will have a different effect.

Wang Yan selected a kind of fruit and vegetable called gourd, which is golden all over, shaped like a pumpkin, and oval, which is extremely suitable for food carving, and is also one of the common raw materials in food carving.

According to the requirements of the competition, the selected dishes, from the selection of materials to the matching, from pickling to accessories, to the final dish out of the pot, are all subject to the processing and modification of the knife skills, and the inclusion of the knife skills, as well as carving.

Therefore, after the pickling of the raw materials, most people begin to choose some suitable for carving grass and wood raw materials, according to their imagination, carved into the dish decoration, this kind of plate decoration, not only can enhance the overall beauty of the dish, but also the effect of appreciation, making people pleasing to the eye.

In addition, some masters of the matching of raw materials for food carving can use the selection of raw materials for food carving, and match each other with the cooked food, so that the overall taste and taste of the dishes are also more prominent because of the effect of food carving.

Above the No. 10 ring, Wang Yan selected the golden gourd, cleaned it repeatedly, and then put it on the conditioning table, at the same time, after his eyes swept over the various carving props under the knife holder, he groaned slightly, and took out the Xuangang knife in the storage bag.

The sharp Xuangang knife exuded bursts of cold sharpness, which was held in Wang Yan's hand, and the cold knife reflected a subtle light under the refraction of the sun.

Wang Yan held the Xuangang knife in his hand, the back of the knife was facing down, fast and constant, and between the flashes of white light, the skin of the golden gourd was scraped off, and the skillful technique and the strength of the knife made people dazzled.

It is not difficult for him to carve a food carving, using the gourd as a cup to hold the finished dish of the last step to achieve a pleasing and complementary effect, and the first thing is to carve the peeled gourd in front of him into the shape he wants.

Wang Yan's eyes drooped slightly, and various different patterns began to flash in his mind, and finally, he was frozen on top of a pair of utensils like melon cups.

In his mind, the utensils made of the golden gourd were quite exquisite, like a hanging basket, with various patterns of birds and beasts carved on it, which made Wang Yan nod slowly, and then, the slightly closed eyes opened.

After being scraped off a layer of skin, the flesh of the gourd is more golden, and the juice formed by the internal fibers seeps out, rendering the golden flesh shiny, revealing a sweet fragrance of melons and fruits.

Wang Yan stood beside the cooking table, began to conceive of the pattern shape that flashed in his mind, looked at the golden gourd in his hand, groaned slightly, and the tip of the Xuangang knife in his hand fell lightly on the top and began to outline.

The golden gourd like a big bowl lay quietly in Wang Yan's hand, and as the Xuangang knife in his right hand slowly slid through, the criss-crossing lines were also slowly outlined by Wang Yan.

Food carving, roughly divided into four kinds, the first one, called the whole carving, also known as three-dimensional carving, in the carving technique is more difficult, the requirements are extremely high, and has the characteristics of a sense of reality and practicality, especially some details of the processing, is extremely complicated, but also makes few people can complete independently.

The second is called relief, the so-called relief, is on the surface of the raw material, showing the carving method of the picture, the technique in the relief, more particular, divided into yin relief and yang relief.

The so-called Yin pattern relief is to use a V-shaped knife to carve, directly use the knife to outline the pattern on the surface, this method is more convenient in operation, and the yang relief is different, what is needed is to carve out the excess part of the picture on the surface of the raw material, and remove the excess accessories, so as to make the picture convex, and Wang Yan used, is this kind of knife technique.

Next, there are hollow, die buckles and other carving methods, each carving technique is also different, the artistic level of carving, there is a substantial difference.

Wang Yan's choice belongs to the relief, but the yang pattern relief in the relief he chooses does not have a V-shaped knife equipped with a professional, and all the patterns are completed independently with the Xuangang knife in his hand, but even so, all the experience in the previous life is enough for him to carve it easily.

Between the continuous swings of the Xuangang knife in his hand, the strength and depth of each knife, Wang Yan can be said to control it exactly the same, there is spiritual power immersed in the inside of the golden gourd, and the feedback is always in his mind, and Wang Yan also knows the internal structure of the golden gourd.

Time passed, and all the contestants in the ten rings were playing their specialties in an intense and orderly manner, in order to get a good result in the third event in the ring, which had already begun.

The same is true above the No. 10 ring, especially the man in the cyan robe, the whole person exudes a sense of stability, he does not only use one of the files like Wang Yan, and the knives that are almost suitable for his own carving are placed in front of him, and at a glance, there are as many as seven or eight kinds.

At this time, the man in the green shirt picked up a U-shaped knife again, and carved the golden gourd in his hand quickly and constantly, there was no difference between him and Wang Yan's original materials of plants and trees, even the food carving part was the same, and the only difference was the work uniform under his hand, with his ability, it seemed that he could use this Yin pattern relief to exert his ability.

At this moment, the almost hollow golden gourd in his hand has been carved seventy-seven eighty-eight, and it can be seen from the regiment above that the entire golden gourd has been carved into a lotus platform like a lotus flower, and in the center of the lotus platform, there is a bowl mouth only the size of a palm, which is used as a dish for holding dishes.

The movement of the man in the green shirt was very fast, and after exchanging a file again, looking at the almost completed work in his hand, his face showed a smile.

"This round..."The man in the green shirt said with a chuckle, and immediately looked at the pickled snow mountain beef on the side, and the file in his hand poked out again, quickly repairing the last parts that needed to be fine.

In another place, the Xuangang knife in Wang Yan's palm was taken back by him, and his dark eyes also swept over the snow-capped beef on the side, any meat and the like pickled will have a constant time limit, the time is short, the meat tendons and compact internal fibers will not be broken, and if it is a long time, it will make the taste and texture of the dish decline.

"It's almost there..."Wang Yan muttered softly, his eyes retracted from the pickled snow mountain yak meat, and he didn't know if he was talking about beef, or if he was talking about the food eagle in his hand, which was also almost complete.

"Whew..."Wang Yan took a deep breath, and then the Xuangang knife in his hand quickly poked out, like the finishing touch, and gently clicked on a few connection points above the golden gourd, and then turned his palm over, and put the Xuantian knife into the storage bag, and his gaze was swept over the food eagle in front of him, turned around and came to the front of the stove, and the flames on his fingertips shot out, accurately falling into the stove.

The flames roared and burned, making the temperature in the ring quietly higher, and everyone in the audience looked at each other, although most people also believed that Wang Yan would always be ahead, but when it really came to this point, they were still a little surprised.

The man in the green shirt looked at him slightly, and then put down the file in his hand, and at this moment, in front of him, the golden gourd was also carved into a vessel in the shape of a lotus platform.

"Still slower than him, this boy... Could it be from the Oriental Academy?" The man in the green shirt frowned slightly, he knew in his heart that with his ability, above the tenth ring, it was appropriate to squeeze into the top five, but for some reason, he, who had always been calm, began to have a trace of comparison after seeing Wang Yan's cooking skills that were extremely inconsistent with his age.

However, since the first item, he has been left in the second position, which made the man in the green shirt feel a trace of frustration in his heart, and as his gaze passed, the burning wok in front of Wang Yan had already been injected with some mountain spring water, and it was burned hot.

"I don't know what kind of food sculpture he carved. The corner of the green-shirted man's mouth murmured, and he immediately looked at the golden gourd in front of Wang Yan that seemed to be intact, took a deep breath when his gaze was withdrawn, and then turned on the flame in front of him.

"Then let's take a look at the comprehensive strength of this last item, who is stronger..."
