After Director Jin announced the content of the note, many people on the judges' bench sighed.

As professionals in the food industry, they naturally know what this assessment question represents, unless Li Yu has a rebellious performance, he will never be able to set foot in the chef world in his next life.

Even Lin Jing, who was babbling before, was silent at this time, Li Yu is like this, aren't they the same? The good interview opportunities on weekdays are tightly grasped by those seniors.

To live, you have to learn to face injustice.

Among the people present, only Yiyi and Yun Siduan knew Li Yu's strength, and the little girl waved her hand at Li Yu full of vitality: "Brother Xiaoyu, come on!"

Li Yu stretched out his right hand and made a muscle-showing gesture towards the little girl, then turned around and went to the ingredients area to choose ingredients.

The time is only one hour, which is not enough for Li Yu to carve a complex flower carving, if it is just an ordinary carve with radish, it is difficult to highlight the advantages of knife work.

Li Yu also understands that in this assessment, the similarity is negative, and if you want to succeed in the duan, you must crush the opponent with an absolute advantage.

So he is ready to make a finished dish – Wensi Tofu.

Wensi tofu is a traditional dish with a long history, belonging to Huaiyang cuisine and Suzhou cuisine.

It was created by the monk Wensi monk in Yangzhou during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and Yu Yue of the Qing Dynasty "Tea Fragrance Room Cong Banknote": "Wensi word Xifu, Gong poem, and good at sweet porridge for tofu soup." Those who have followed its example so far are called Wensi Tofu. ”

Wensi tofu is very strict in the selection of materials, fine knife work, soft and mellow, melts in the mouth, and has the effect of regulating malnutrition, replenishing deficiency and nourishing the body, etc., and is the best recipe for the elderly and children.

The method of making Wensi tofu is very simple, and the core of the whole dish lies in the processing of the tofu.

Tofu has a soft texture, and most of the home-cooked tofu made on weekdays is cut into pieces the size of a little finger, but Wensi tofu is not, and the tofu needs to be cut into long filaments before it can be boiled in a pot.

You can imagine what it would be like to cut a piece of tofu by cutting cucumber shreds.

Taking the GZ Garden Hotel in Guangdong Province, the only platinum-level five-star hotel in South China, as an example, the standard specification of Wensi Tofu in the Garden Hotel is each strip of tofu shreds, and the width cannot exceed 0.15 cm.

In the chef world before Li Yu's rebirth, the hallmark of the success of the knife was to cut out 0.07 cm of Wensi tofu shreds.

Wensi Tofu's strict requirements for knife work can be seen.

Li Yu's current body is far inferior to that before his rebirth in all aspects, and he actually has no bottom in his heart about what specifications of tofu shreds can be cut.

Wensi tofu is a soup product, and it is most suitable for cooking soup gypsum tofu, which is soft and delicate in texture.

Li Yu picked a moderate piece of tofu, and took a small piece of ham, a piece of bamboo shoots, and a little vegetable.

After returning to the stove, Li Yu put the tofu flat on the cutting board, took a deep breath, held the knife, and cut it!

"Tuk Tuk Tuk-", the kitchen knife was in Li Yu's hand, at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, cutting in and lifting rapidly, and after two breaths, Li Yu's speed under the knife reached the fastest, and as far as the eye could see, only the afterimage was seen!

The kitchen knife was in Li Yu's hand, like a machine assembly line, fast and accurate, and after a minute, the originally square piece of tofu turned into countless filaments.

"Whew-" Li Yu exhaled a breath of turbidity, wiped the sweat on his head with a dry towel, and nodded with satisfaction.

With his eyes, he can naturally accurately see that the width of these tofu shreds is controlled within 0.15 centimeters.

Considering Li Yu's current finger sensitivity, coupled with the kitchenware he uses, it is a very ordinary 'Zhang Xiaoquan' brand kitchen knife, 0.15 cm of shredded tofu, it is a miracle!

The most difficult problem has been solved, and the remaining steps are easy to do, simply put the tofu in the pot, shred the ham and fresh bamboo shoots, and finally add seasonings to enhance the flavor, and within a few minutes, a Wensi tofu will be out of the pot.

Gently put Wensi tofu into a bowl, Li Yu walked to the judges' table with the dish and brought the soup bowl to the table.

Prior to this, Marin's work had been completed: an ordinary carrot flower, not ugly, but by no means delicate, roughly the knife level of an ordinary hotel chef.

"It's... Shredded rice noodles or rice noodles?" asked the eldest of the three judges, looking at Wen Si Tofu.

This is Lin Siduan, who works at another four-star hotel in Tree City, Jingsheng Hotel.

Wensi tofu because the ingredients need broth, and the broth needs to be boiled with meat and bones, and the auxiliary materials need ham, so the inheritance of Wensi tofu was broken during the meat fasting period, and it is understandable that Lin Siduan can't see it.

When Li Yu heard this, he shook his head slightly, pointed to the soup bowl and introduced: "This dish is called Wensi tofu, and the main material is ordinary gypsum tofu, its origin..."

"This is tofu? impossible!" Li Yu was interrupted by another fourth paragraph, a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses, his expression was a little stunned: "How can tofu be cut so finely?"

Li Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, "A few people, please put down the chopsticks, and the entrance will be self-explanatory." ”

The three of them nodded, and one of them took a small bowl of Wensi tofu and slowly began to taste it.

After a moment, all three raised their heads almost at the same time, looking at each other.

After half a minute, Lin Siduan slowly put down the small bowl, looked at Li Yu with a complicated expression, and said, "This round of winning the section - Li Yu wins!"

"Lin Siduan, what are you kidding?" Fang Erduan, who was on the side, couldn't stand, Ma Lin was taken away, but it was him, the master, who was embarrassed, he separated the crowd with a black face, and walked quickly to the table.

Without waiting for a few Sidan to speak, he directly scooped a spoonful of soup, looked at it a few times and stuffed it into his mouth, and said disdainfully while stuffing: "It's obviously rice dough cut into shreds, but I insist on saying that it's beans..."

As he spoke, he froze there, holding a spoon in one hand and stuffing it in his mouth, as if petrified, quite funny.

Li Yu walked up to Fang Erduan and said with a smile: "Fang Erduan, why don't you speak? I shredded this rice dough and made it into your eyes? I didn't put chili peppers this time." ”

With a "snap", the porcelain spoon in Fang Erduan's hand fell to the ground, shattered, Fang Erduan stretched out his hand, and pointed at Li Yu tremblingly, looking like he wanted to say but couldn't say anything, then rolled his eyes and fainted directly.

The scene was suddenly chaotic, fortunately this is the headquarters of the Kitchen Association, with a resident physician, after the doctor hurriedly came to check it, Director Jin and others breathed a sigh of relief: the doctor checked the whites of the eyes and ear cavity, there was no sign of bleeding, and the breathing was also very stable.

Fang Erduan is fine, but everyone is in trouble: how to proceed with this seizure?

In the end, after discussion by several judges, the second round of winning the dan was handled with Fang Erdan's abstention, and Li Yu succeeded in winning the duan - but he must continue to challenge Jiang Sandan to determine the result of the third round.

Li Yu readily accepted this, anyway, Jiang Sanduan would challenge him, and it had nothing to do with Fang Erduan's abstention.
