Chapter 165: A Special Secret (Part II)

is worthy of being a professional judge, and he does have real kung fu, and after drinking a small half bowl of porridge, he knows that three different kinds of rice are used in it.

Bai Xiaobai didn't intend to hide the ingredients, he said very straightforwardly, "My special lotus leaf lean porridge is indeed made with three kinds of rice. They are pearl rice from Northeast China, brown rice from Huxiang Province and jasmine rice from Thailand."

Lao Tie asked repeatedly, "Why do you use three kinds of rice for your lotus leaf lean porridge?" ”

Bai Xiaobai almost didn't think much about it, and calmly replied, "The reason why I don't use a single kind of rice is actually really saying." We all know that a bowl of top-notch porridge not only needs a good taste, but also needs to have good nutrition and good aroma, commonly known as three good porridge. However, each type of rice has shortcomings, for example, some rice tastes very good, but the fragrance is insufficient, and some rice is full of flavor but not nutritious enough. Therefore, one kind of rice alone cannot make a pot of top-quality porridge. ”

"The mixed rice porridge I use, among which the Northeast pearl rice can ensure that the porridge is soft and glutinous and has an excellent taste, while the embryo king brown rice in Huxiang Province, because it is brown rice, its minerals and fiber are several times that of ordinary rice, which can ensure that the porridge is more nutritious, and the remaining Thai jasmine rice has a strong fragrance, which can make the porridge overflow with rice fragrance and become more attractive. In summary, after these three kinds of rice are mixed, they can make up for their own shortcomings, and each of them can give full play to their strengths, so that the taste, nutrition, and aroma of a pot of porridge are impeccable, and it can be regarded as a top-class porridge. ”

Although Bai Xiaobai's words are a bit pretending to be X, he is not messing around, but has been carefully organized.

In fact, the system did not explain why three kinds of rice were used, and Bai Xiaobai expressed the above opinions completely according to his own understanding.

Chef Lao Tie was obviously very satisfied with Bai Xiaobai's explanation, and while he listened carefully, he nodded slightly from time to time.

"Bai Xiaobai, what is the ratio of your three types of rice, how can it taste so good?" a chef judge wearing a high hat next to Lao Tie suddenly asked.

Rao is this chef judge said very earnestly and sincerely asked.

But the white vernacular is only half spoken.

"I can only say that the dosage of Northeast pearl rice is more than the other two kinds of rice, as for the specific ratio of the three rices, I can't disclose, this is the key to the special, but also my unique recipe. ”

Bai Xiaobai is very principled, he won't be hesitant to say what he should say, and he won't say more than half a sentence if he shouldn't say it.

The combination of the three types of rice has already involved the mystery of the special method of the system, and it is naturally impossible to tell anyone.

Lao Tie naturally knows that every chef has his own unique way of cooking food, Bai Xiaobai doesn't say that it's excusable, and he won't reluctantly ask.

"Bai Xiaobai, I want to ask you a second question, your porridge is called special lotus leaf lean porridge, but there are no lotus leaves in the porridge, how can this be explained?

In fact, there are few restaurants that sell lotus leaf lean porridge, the main reason is that it is not easy to make.

Because lotus leaves are born with a bitter and astringent taste, it is not easy to remove them, and it is easy to bring the bitter and astringent taste into the porridge when boiling porridge, which will affect the taste to some extent.

"Actually, my approach is very simple. Bai Xiaobai returned to the competition area, the No. 6 stove, picked up a lotus leaf that had turned yellow-green, and continued:

"My method is to put down the whole lotus leaf when the porridge is almost ready. If you add lotus leaves too early, or cut the lotus leaves, or cook them for too long, the lotus leaf porridge can not present the most beautiful light green, and it is very easy to turn yellow, and if you cook the lotus leaves for a long time, the lotus leaf tannin alkaloids in the lotus leaves will be integrated into the porridge in large quantities, which will make the porridge have a faint bitter and astringent taste, affecting the overall taste of the porridge. ”

"Of course, in order to eliminate the slightly bitter taste of the lotus leaves themselves, I also soaked them in light salt water before using them. ”

Lao Tie's two questions are completely difficult for Bai Xiaobai Rong.

Next, not only Lao Tie asked questions, but the remaining nine judges also raised their own questions.

For example, why is porridge so smooth?

Why does lean pork taste so good?

The three types of rice are different, how can you ensure that all three types of rice are cooked?

Is boiling rice under water, or rice under cold water?

When boiling lotus leaf lean pork porridge, do you add salad oil to the pot......

Regardless of the judges' bombardment and raising all kinds of tricky questions, Bai Xiaobai answered them fluently.

Of course, if it involves the secret of the special method of the system, such as the ratio of three kinds of rice, he still does not say Tai Chi.

Because Bai Xiaobai explained to the microphone, every word he said could be heard clearly by the onlookers outside the venue.

Most of the crowd are rational, seeing that Bai Xiaobai is calm and unhurried, and responds easily to various problems of the judges, almost all the onlookers are impressed by this young man.

A male compatriot who watched onlookers, looking at Bai Xiaobai with admiration in his eyes, "The questions asked by the judges, this guy is really the answer, and there are so many details of cooking lotus leaf porridge, it's really not simple, I learned it today, and I will cook a pot for my wife and children tomorrow, and drink it in summer to cool off." ”

"As the old saying goes, details determine success or failure, not to mention anything else, this buddy is really careful to make porridge. ”

"Don't stop thinking, this brother's knowledge of ingredients is really rich, what lotus leaf tannins alkaloids such a professional word, I heard it for the first time. ”

"I admire this guy so much, although his name is Bai Xiaobai, it feels weird, but the voice is very magnetic, very good-sounding, and he looks very manly, not girly. ”

Although Bai Xiaobai's usual personality is a bit big and nervous, and he even occasionally makes a joke, but when it comes to formal occasions, he is extremely serious.

When answering the judges' questions, he exudes a calm and unhurried temperament all over his body, which is the charm of a confident chef.

This kind of charm can infect many people.

Lao Tie is now infected by Bai Xiaobai's temperament, from the previous criticism, to the later recognition, to the current liking.

If he could, he really wanted to accept Bai Xiaobai as a closed disciple.

But this kind of gifted person, even if he has no teacher, can teach himself, and take him as an apprentice, but there is nothing to teach.

A hint of the idea of accepting apprentices flashed in his mind, Lao Tie came back to his senses, he picked up the topic and said to the onlookers in the audience:

"You don't have to say it now, this special lotus leaf lean porridge is not ordinary porridge, it takes a lot of effort from a chef, and how many steps and details can be cooked. ”

"And I also want to make a special note that Bai Xiaobai's porridge was slightly cold when it was served. In this summer, no one wants to drink hot porridge, and he knows how to cool the pot with cold water to cool the porridge, which shows that he cares very much about the feeling of the taster, and is a chef who really cooks food with heart. ”

As Lao Tie said.

In fact, Bai Xiaobai had already made the porridge a few minutes before the deadline of the game, but he found that the porridge that had just been boiled was too hot, and it was too hot tonight.

Compare your heart to your heart, in such a hot weather, no one wants to drink hot porridge, let alone a picky judge.

In order to adjust the temperature of the porridge, Bai Xiaobai had to frequently change the cold water to cool down the pot containing the porridge, so he spent a lot of time, resulting in the final step on the point to complete the porridge for the competition.

Lao Tie was impassioned, full of enthusiasm and continued, "In the last sentence, Bai Xiaobai was able to get the first place and break the record, not only because the porridge he cooked was delicious, but also because he was cooking with his heart. Details determine success or failure, and now who else says that this competition is shady and unfair, you just say that our ten judges definitely have a clear conscience!"

After Lao Tie's impassioned words, the onlookers who had dissent before were now speechless.

Bai Xiaobai noticed that on the stage, the duo who shouted that the judges were scoring unfairly and that there was a shady competition just now, I don't know when it had slipped away.

The girl with a ponytail and her uncle, the fat chef, where do they still have the face to stay on the stage, the two of them have already known each other and slipped away, and now they don't even have the courage to receive the second prize.

In fact, even if they don't leave, Peng Ruhai plans to cancel their second prize as the chairman of the organizer's judges.

This kind of person who is not good at cooking, does not know how to find problems from himself, but uses nonsense to talk about the shady scene of the competition, does not deserve to win the award at all.
