Episode 142 Audit
At this moment, Gao Jian'an, who was opposite Hua Zemu, was also busy.
After removing the head and tail of the eel, Takami cut the middle of the eel into several sections, put it on a plate and set it aside for later use, and then began to pour the prepared ingredients into the pot one by one.
"I used eel. Zheng Ke rubbed his chin and watched Gao Jian'an's actions.
When the picture was focused on Hua Zemu just now, Zheng Ke was very confident in Hua Zemu's cooking, but when the TV turned to the picture of Gao Jian'an handling the ingredients, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Let's not talk about the quality of Gao Jian'an's cooking, but for now, Gao Jian'an's basic skills are very solid, and he is no worse than Hanazawa Mu.
Although the level of basic skills does not determine the outcome of a game, it shows that it is no accident that Takamian was able to surpass Akane Kubo Momo and Takasugi Shouji in terms of scores. He even doubted that if the group stage was allowed to be held again, it would still be the result.
Gao Jian'an and Hua Zemu's cooking skills turned out to be comparable to Qihu, and seeing this, Zheng Ke actually felt a kind of uneasiness in his heart.
Senior Hanazawa...... You should be able to win, right?
After the two people put the ingredients in the pot, it was a long wait, the white water vapor loomed, and the preparation of the soup also came to an end. Although it may seem boring, the process is very much about the chef's firework.
"Zheng Ke, you say, can Senior Hanazawa win this time?"
"It shouldn't be a big problem, right? At least, for now, Senior Hanazawa has not made a mistake. As long as the characteristics of the soup can be fully brought into play, the winning rate of senior Hanazawa is still quite large. ”
Although Gao Jian'an's cooking is also very good, Zheng Ke obviously believes in Hua Zemu more.
Zheng Ke...... If Hanazawa loses, will you be disappointed?" Catherine, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke.
"Huh, you won't say that Hua Zemu will lose, right?" Catherine's Western food attainments are higher than Zheng Ke's, and hearing her words, Zheng Ke's heart is still quite empty.
"I'm not convinced, I just think that from the current point of view, it is possible for two people to win or lose. I'm not sure. Catherine held her cheeks and looked at the big screen.
Although the process of cooking soup is very important, however, this process is really boring.
There was silence in the hall, and everyone was quietly waiting for the final result. In contrast, the outside of the hall is much more lively. Many people drank cold beer, ate snacks, and watched the big screen while expressing their opinions.
"Haha, I like to eat eel, I think that little guy's cooking is excellent. A man touched his chin, picked up the beef from his plate, and took a sip of beer.
"Also, what's so delicious about vegetables? When I see those vegetables, my face is almost green, and there is no oily smell at all, well, it is really uncomfortable to eat. The person next to him also echoed and said.
"Let's toast the eels. ”
The people around raised their glasses.
The girl also imitated the people around her, and wanted to raise the juice and shout with them, but was stopped by Eizan Ezu.
"Don't make trouble, shut up if you want to watch the game here, if you dare to make a noise, I'll send you back!" Ezuyama also glared at the girl.
The girl opened her mouth and was about to refute, but Ruishan immediately said "shut up", and the girl rolled her eyes in anger.
Although the crowd on the beach seemed to be very lively, most of them gradually shifted the conversation as time went on, until someone began to remind the contestant that "this contestant's meal seems to be ready", and the audience returned to the big screen.
I saw that Gao Jian'an poured the soup into the bowl, held the tray, and walked up to the judges' seat.
"Teacher, this is my dish, it's called conger eel soup. Takamian put the fish soup in front of the three judges and said quietly.
"Moray eel soup?" Chief judge Booker took a deep breath, the rich flavor of the soup rushed into his nostrils, and the delicious taste made his eyes light up, and when he looked at the conger eel soup, his eyes also had a little more joy.
In the white soup plate, there is an orange-yellow soup, and the surface of the soup is sprinkled with trivial bay leaves, as if to tell everyone that the taste of this soup is not as ordinary as it seems on the surface. However, the real heart of this dish lies underneath the soup. Fragrant eel fillets emerge in the soup, while other vegetables loom in the background.
This looks like an ordinary dish, which catches Booker's attention. In many cases, fish soup is served with broth, or with other seafood, so it is very fresh and thick, and it is rare to see so many vegetables used.
Just now, from the sense of smell, I can basically tell that the taste of the soup is relatively light, but the real taste will not be known until the actual tasting.
"Let's get started, two," Booker suggested.
Ayumi Akimoto and Kojima Yukiharu were already salivating, and when they heard Booker's proposal, they immediately picked up the soup spoon and swallowed the soup in one gulp.
Delicious!
Ayumu Akimoto gripped the spoon tightly and closed his eyes slightly.
Celery, scarlet, onion, bay leaf...... After a long period of boiling, the flavor of these ingredients has already penetrated into the soup. The middle of the delicious eel is boiled with these ingredients, and the unique seafood flavor of the eel is paired with the fragrance of other ingredients, which instantly occupies the taste buds.
"The flavor of the soup is so strong, it must have been boiled for a long time, but these vegetables still taste very strong, why is that?" Kojima asked curiously.
Vegetable?
Akimoto immediately lowered his head, and sure enough, he saw that the carrots were still square, not as if they had been boiled for a long time, and the eel in the soup had already become ripe, and it didn't take any effort to swallow it, and it had already disappeared into his mouth.
"Indeed, normally speaking, these vegetables should have been boiled. Akimoto looked at Takamian in astonishment.
"The reason is simple: although the ingredients are the same, the ingredients used to make the soup are not the same as the vegetables in the bowl. The corners of Gao Jian'an's mouth curled slightly.
Not the same?
The three judges guessed the meaning of Gao Jian'an's words, but Zheng Ke in front of the TV suddenly realized and said, "So that's what happened." ”
"What the hell is going on?" Akane Kubo Momo looked at Zheng Ke strangely, and Catherine was puzzled.
Zheng Ke lowered his head, thinking about Gao Jian'an's production process.
It's too similar...... Yes, this cooking technique is too similar to the Western-style apple meal that Kohei Sozane once cooked.
The only difference is that Zheng Ke uses apple juice to absorb the flavor, while Gao Jian'an's soup uses the way the ingredients are boiled, so that the flavor of the ingredients flows into the soup.
Although he couldn't taste the taste of this dish, from this technique, Zheng Ke could almost deduce that Gao Jianguang's strength was even more powerful than he imagined.
