"The two of us are going to compete." Fang Ze raised his eyebrows and said to Lin Xiaoxin, "Do you want to come over and be an assistant?" ”

"Ah, you two aren't kidding, how did you become a chef, you shouldn't be messing around. ”

"How could it be. Fang Ze took out the temporary participation card given to them by the staff just now and handed it to Lin Xiaoxin, "Look, we are a regular participating team." ”

Fang Ze asked Lin Xiaoxin to come to the exhibition area first, and then told her what happened just now.

"Awesome. Lin Xiaoxin was dumbfounded. "It's still like this. ”

"Anyway, there is no loss in participating in the competition, and you can still eat delicious food. Fang Ze prepared the utensils while waiting for the staff to deliver the ingredients.

"By the way, do you really know how to cook?" Lin Xiaoxin still didn't believe Fang Ze a little.

Fang Ze turned the kitchen knife handsomely, and then said to Lin Xiaoxin, "Even if I don't know how to do it, I can be an assistant to chop vegetables, is it more difficult to cut vegetables than to dissect them." ”

"When you say that, it's a little bit, people don't want to eat what you cook. Lin Xiaoxin looked at Fang Ze and said.

Forehead.

Fang Ze thought to himself, if you knew who I learned my cooking skills from, you probably wouldn't want to eat my cooking in your life.

Not long after the two chatted, the staff brought the ingredients that Fang Ze and Liu Pleiades needed.

At the same time, the food competition on the first floor has officially begun.

All contestants are required to prepare two or three dishes in half an hour to enter the competition, but the final result is determined by the highest rated dish rather than the sum of the scores of all dishes.

Chefs who are not confident in their own dishes will usually cook three dishes in order to have a good chance of getting a high score, but Fang Ze and Liu Pleiades certainly don't, and the two are confident that they will have a dish to conquer everyone present.

Of course, Liu Pleiades' confidence comes from himself, and Fang Ze's confidence comes from Liu Pleiades.

However, Fang Ze was not completely prepared to lie down and win, on the contrary, his task was also very important.

If you want to make a different green pepper shredded meat, knife work is the key.

In the original plot of the Chinese master, Liu Pleiades once cooperated with his senior brother Tang Sanjie to make shredded green pepper pork, but the first time he made it was just ordinary shredded green pepper pork, which did not reach the level of perfection.

Because the key to shredded pork is the knife work, all the ingredients must be cut to the same size so that they can be heated evenly.

In the limited time, Liu Pleiades also had to season the meat, so all the work of the knife fell on Fang Ze.

If it was someone else, Fang Ze didn't dare to pack the ticket, but the knife work.

Fang Ze is absolutely confident, because his cooking skills are inherited from Hannibal, and Hannibal's greatest ability is to be particularly stable in the knife, no matter where it is.

So Fang Ze picked up the kitchen knife and began to process the green pepper first.

There is no specific rule on which green pepper to use in the stir-fried shredded pork with green peppers, and it varies to a large extent according to regional characteristics.

If it is in some areas where spicy food can be eaten, Fang Ze and Liu Pleiades will definitely be inclined to Erjingtiao when choosing green peppers.

Because the spicy green pepper will have a strong aroma, the fried shredded pork with green pepper will taste delicious, especially the fresh tender green straight two wattle strips, and a bite will definitely make the mouth explode.

However, the host location of this food festival is Lin'an, a typical southeastern city, so choosing Erjingtiao will make some diners who can't eat spicy food feel uncomfortable, especially the diners on the first floor they have to face are unprofessional raters, and once it is too spicy, it will definitely lead to polarization of ratings.

So for the sake of safety, the two chose bell peppers with fragrant and tender characteristics.

Although bell peppers lack a lot of spiciness, the flavor definition of shredded green peppers is 'salty'. Whether it's spicy or not, purely depends on the region.

This is also a characteristic of Chinese chefs, who will change the way they cook according to different regions and different tastes, so that people are used to eating.

That's why there are so many improved Chinese food in the United States and Europe to cater to the tastes of Westerners, and it is the greatest thing about Chinese cuisine that is not confined to tradition.

Fang Ze held the kitchen knife in his hand, just like holding a scalpel, each knife was extremely accurate, and the length and width of the green peppers cut out by each knife were exactly the same, looking extremely beautiful.

Not only were some curious spectators stunned, but even the reporters and photographers who were shooting the video were also attracted to it.

"May I ask where you are from and what kind of dish do you want to cook?" A reporter who looked extremely young walked over and asked Fang Ze with a microphone.

"We are chefs from Sichuan Juxialou. Fang Ze said into the microphone.

"Chef from Sichuan, yes. The reporter said while looking at the various ingredients being prepared on Fang Ze and Liu Yuexing's booth, "Then it seems that what I brought to you today is Sichuan cuisine, right?" Can you tell me what kind of dish it is? ”

"Shredded pork with green peppers. Fang Ze cut his green pepper seriously, without much excitement, the whole person looked cold. After all, he is not a professional chef, and being famous is unlikely to bring him any good.

What's more, it is very tiring to cut all the green peppers exactly the same.

"Is it such an ordinary dish!" The reporter didn't expect that in this kind of competition, there would be people who would come up with home-cooked food. Aren't you afraid that diners won't buy it?

Taking advantage of the time he spoke, Fang Ze had already finished cutting the green peppers, and by the way, he cut the bamboo shoots, and then pushed the bamboo shoots to Liu Pleiades, and continued to cut the tenderloin himself.

"The dish is ordinary, the main thing is to look at the chef who does it. Fang Ze began to cut the tenderloin while answering the reporter's words.

Being a chef means that you are not an ordinary chef.

After listening to Fang Ze's crazy words, the reporter couldn't help but observe the three people who were cooking on this platform.

Needless to say, Fang Ze, who is serious about chopping vegetables, looks like he has good knife skills. But what the hell is that kid next to him?

Can a thirteen-year-old cook too?

At first, the reporter thought that Liu Pleiades was probably brought over as a mascot because there was no one to take care of him at home, but then she saw Lin Xiaoxin who was standing behind and taking pictures of Fang Ze, who was concentrating on chopping vegetables.

This Lori seems to be the one who can't cook.,It's a real mascot.。

So the three chefs who came all the way from Sichuan brought a Zhengtai and a Lori as mascots, and then cooked all the dishes by themselves?

Judging from the fact that he made shredded pork with green peppers, he probably came to travel and cook by the way.

The reporter who lost interest was about to leave, when he saw Liu Pleiades starting to oil the bamboo shoots.

I saw that there was Liu Pleias's face, and the three big iron pots were lifted up by Liu Pleiades in an instant. Under the illumination of the vigorous flames, Liu Pleiades effortlessly shook the iron pot and began to oil the bamboo shoots.

At this time, Fang Ze also finished cutting the tenderloin and poured a neat pile of meat into the pot.

Then wait until the oil is filtered at the same time, put the green pepper on the fence and add it, so that the green pepper is also disguised as oil.

Because there is no light soy sauce in traditional Sichuan cuisine, the oil used in the traditional shredded pork with green pepper is soy sauce, which is also called soybean oil in Sichuan dialect, and it is rarely seen on the market now.

But fortunately, there is a time-honored taste of river soy sauce in Fang Ze's memory that can be replaced, so it is not a big problem.

The real difficulty lies in the fresh soup to be added to the shredded pork with green peppers.

Fresh soup is the essence of traditional cuisine, and its effect is equivalent to that of today's MSG. If there is enough time, Fang Ze and Liu Yuxing can use dozens of catties of good meat to make a pot of soup that can be seasoned.

But because the time was short, the two could only use chicken broth, bone broth and monosodium glutamate chicken essence with boiling water instead.

At this time, Liu Pleiasion's ability as a special chef is truly reflected. After tasting a few bites of modern chicken essence and monosodium glutamate, he immediately judged the amount and added it to the chicken broth and bone broth, and then made a seasoning soup that could be used as a substitute for fresh soup, and poured it into the shredded pork with green peppers.

Just when Fang Ze and Liu Pleiades were busy, the reporters who were observing on the side found that this child was really powerful, so they hurriedly asked the cameraman to give a few more shots to this child who was cooking.

"May I ask if this kid is your assistant, how old is he now?" the reporter then asked Fang Ze.

However, Fang Ze didn't answer him for the time being, because he was busy pressing persimmons.

Liu Pleiaus's green pepper shredded pork has a key secret, which is persimmons.

The ripe persimmons are pressed into a paste to replace the sweetness of the sugar, and then seasoned with sauce and taibai powder to make the shredded green pepper meat more rounded and bring out the purest fragrance.

The overripe persimmons and vegetables go well with the flavor, and the crispness and tenderness of the shredded green pepper can be brought out even better, and the shredded green pepper is perfect.

After Fang Ze pressed the persimmons, Liu Pleiades quickly returned the shredded green pepper meat back to the pot for seasoning, and began to prepare to make the most perfect shredded green pepper pork.

There is one last question, though.

"Assistant, are you talking about the one next to me?" Fang Ze picked up a large cauldron lid as he spoke to the reporter.

"Actually, I'm the assistant, and the one next to me is the only heir to our chrysanthemum. ”

"What?!" the reporter was a little surprised, he involuntarily turned his head to look at Liu Pleias, the child-like cook, and at this time Liu Pleiades was ready to put the pot down.

Because at this time, the shredded pork with green pepper is about to be made.

It was also at this time that Fang Ze, who had always looked serious, suddenly pointed to the ceiling on the first floor and looked up and shouted, "Look, plane." ”

What airplanes?

Although everyone didn't know what Fang Ze was talking about, human beings all had a herd mentality, so including the camera in the cameraman's hand, everyone looked up at the place Fang Ze was pointing.

It was naturally empty, and it came out with a quaint looking ceiling, and nothing else.

And at the moment when everyone looked up, Fang Ze had already buckled the lid of the pot on top of the iron pot, and if he looked closely, he could vaguely see a few traces of light exposed in the gap of the lid of the pot.

That's right, this shredded pork with green pepper inherits the greatest advantages of the dishes in the Chinese little master.

It glows!
