CH.258 Questioning and Rebuttal
Zheng Ke, who had just pushed open the door, had no idea what was going on in the examination room.
Seeing the three judges, everyone's expressions were very serious, especially the white-haired beauty sitting on the far right, pouting and looking angry.
Zheng Ke was taken aback when he saw this beauty - he hadn't seen her in reality, but he had seen her on the mobile phone screen.
This white-haired beauty is none other than Alice's mother, Nagi Reaurola, the head of Nagi International.
Why is she here?
Zheng Ke frowned slightly, but soon thought that Romon had said that Everton and Nagi International had cooperated, and it was thought that Everton should have hired her over.
"Hello, Lady Nagiche, judges. Zheng Ke hurriedly greeted the three judges.
The strange stares of these judges made him confused, but he tried to keep it natural.
According to common sense, no matter how strict and harsh the three judges are, they should not have this kind of expression.
Nagi Le Aurora was visibly sulking, while the middle-aged blond man sitting on the other side had a less friendly gaze, and the old man sitting in the middle looked more serious, with the most normal expression of the three.
"Now, it's your cooking show, can you start now?" Mena asked.
"Yes. β
Zheng Ke nodded slightly, and at the same time pushed the cooking cart to a place about 1.5 meters away from the three teachers, turned on the stove, turned it into a strong fire, put the iron pot on the car on the stove, poured the cooking oil into the pot, and slid the pebbles prepared before into the pot along the wall of the pot.
Mena and Manfred looked stunned when they saw the pebbles, they hadn't seen the qualifying matches and weren't too familiar with the sauna dishes.
Nagi Cheret Aurora had seen pebble beef tenderloin on the Internet, but even so, he was surprised when he saw Zheng Ke take out the pebbles.
"Sauna cooking?" said Nagi Cherretla Aurora.
"You know this dish?" Mena asked, turning to Nagi Cherretla Aurora.
"I first saw an Oriental student cook it at the qualifying competition of a prestigious school at the beginning of the year. Nagi ChelΓ© Aurora explained, "Your dish is not going to be pebble beef tenderloin, is it?"
Nagi Cheret Aurora looked at Zheng Ke again.
"It's not. Zheng Ke covered the pot and said softly, "My dish is called pebble goose gizzard, and the ingredient used is goose gizzard. β
"Children, what are sauna dishes?" Mena asked Zheng Ke, but there was a kind of enthusiasm in his eyes.
"Sauna dishes are a kind of Chinese cuisine, and it has only been around for about 20 years since it appeared. It is far away, and it is not complicated, using stones as the heat transfer medium to heat the dishes in turn. β
Manfred snorted coldly and said, "You came to apply for a lecturer at Everton, but you cook Chinese cuisine, just look at this, you are not qualified." β
When Zheng Ke heard Manfred's words, his brows raised slightly, and he looked at Manfred with a vigilant look.
He looked at the middle-aged man with a resolute face in front of him, "Teacher, may I ask who you are ......?"
"The gourmet, Manfred, is also an advisor to the Finita Gastronomy Agency. Manfred said coldly.
Zheng Ke bowed slightly, he had been in Paris for half a year, and he had heard of the top 30 gourmets in Europe, but Manfred in front of him had not heard of it.
As for the food institution in the back, Zheng Ke knows that it is also a food institution that develops dishes, but it is not as large as Nagiri International in terms of scale.
Since Manfred has brought out the Finita Food Agency, it means that his fame is not loud enough, and he needs to use other institutions to raise his value.
The more famous people, such as Milne, he is in France, and even in the European culinary world, as long as he says his name, naturally someone knows him. The same goes for Catherine, who now that she has gone through the-blue and qualifying, she no longer needs the blue logo to increase her fame.
After this trip to the United States, it is estimated that even the American culinary community knows about the existence of this genius chef.
Really powerful characters don't need to rely on the fame of other institutions at all, because their names themselves are highly recognizable.
As for Manfred, who knows where he came from as a foodie?
"Mr. Manfred, when did the competition for a lecturer at a gastronomic institution limit the cuisine? and I didn't hear from Everton that he had to cook French food. Zheng Ke patiently explained.
"This is Paris, does your Chinese cuisine attract diners?" Manfred asked rhetorically.
"As long as the food is good enough, I think it's fine. Zheng Ke said.
"That's just what you think. Manfred snorted.
"Teacher, I can give two examples right now. The first is that in last year's The-Blue competition, senior Cheng Huaizhi won the senior Bayer, and the second is the qualifying competition at the beginning of the year, Dongfang won the first place in the qualifying competition of the famous school with the highest score. These two competitions are relatively large international competitions, both held in Paris, and the judges are all famous European gourmets. Mr. Manfred, these gourmets believe that even in a foreign country, Chinese cuisine can make delicious dishes. Zheng Ke said softly.
Manfred's brows were furrowed, his face was not normal, he just wanted to open his mouth, and suddenly remembered that there was still Mena sitting next to him, so he turned his head stiffly, looked at Mena in the middle, and asked anxiously: "Teacher Mena, what do you ......see?"
"Very good...... I think he's right. Mena bowed slightly, "Food lies in the subjective feelings of diners. If the diner thinks it's delicious, it's a good dish, and if the diner doesn't like it, then the dish isn't good, no matter how delicate it is. Kid, am I right?"
"That's right, grandpa, that's what I meant. Zheng Ke bowed slightly.
"However, I approve of this Chinese dish, but I also have a small request. Mena continued.
"What request?" Zheng Ke looked at Mena suspiciously, not sure what he had in mind.
"You're right, even in Paris, the best Chinese cuisine is a very good existence. But one thing, can you guarantee that the chefs you teach can also cook Chinese cuisine of a very high standard?"
Zheng Ke's expression tightened, and he shook his head again and again, cooking Chinese cuisine requires a long time of accumulation. Even Catherine's talent can only cook basic Chinese cuisine in a short period of time, let alone other Western chefs.
"That's it, if you want to teach a chef who can cook good food, or a chef who is very good at cooking, take it a step further, at the end of the day, you have to go back to French cuisine. So, if this Chinese dish can satisfy all three of us, I hope you can put on a Western cooking show. I can assure you that Huaxia cuisine determines the score of this game, and that Western food, we won't even use it as a reference. How?"
Mena narrowed his eyes, and a sly gaze leaked from his eyes, making Zheng Ke feel a kind of discomfort.
