Chapter Twenty-Three: Confronting the Iranian Team

Iranian chef Battmanri eventually lost to Li Tiegang.

Li Tiegang has to hold on to the victory, and then face off against Turkish celebrity chef Kaya to win the match.

The Iranian team was very unlucky to have a shaved head and has not won a single point so far.

However, Li Tiegang still failed to get out of the group stage.

On December 5, Turkey played against Lu cuisine, Fang Hong had already exerted huge pressure on the Turkish side before, and Chef Li Tiegang, who had lost many important seasonings, was constrained, and many famous dishes could not be served on the table, with one draw, one win and two losses, and the total score of the four dishes was lost to Turkey.

Lu Cai's exit is definitely something that everyone didn't expect at all, Fang Hong is helpless about it, if Li Tiegang can enter the knockout round, maybe a new soy sauce can be made, and then the potential of Lu Cai can burst out, but it's a pity that this is a group of death.

Will Turkish celebrity chef Kaya let go of the chance to advance? No way.

However, Li Tiegang himself is much more open-minded, why he is out, everyone knows, then there is nothing to explain: "If you lose, you lose, no matter what it is, you will lose, and it will be a big deal to come back next year." ”

Now the identity of the Sichuan cuisine team has been confirmed, and there is no pressure at all.

In the morning, Fang Hong turned on the live broadcast, and now it is like this every day, either on the match day to study the menu live, or on non-match days, to visit other chefs early in the morning.

As soon as he turned on the live broadcast, Fang Hong saw the sunspot.

Originally, Fang Hongli didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of sunspot Fang Hongli, but today he was interested, and he read what the sunspot said: "What's so good about a broken food competition, and there are so many people watching, is there nothing to do after eating?" Why don't you care about education and current affairs? ”

Fang Hong: "Tell me the difference between the Virgin and the Virgin." ”

A sailor said: "Our Lady is: This man is so pitiful, I will save him." The Holy Mother of Bitch is: this man is so pitiful, why don't you bastards save him. ”

Fang Hong snapped his fingers: "If you think that education is important and current politics are important, you can just care, what are you beeping here, can you give you the Nobel Peace Prize here?" ”

“666”

The man said again: "There are so many important things in the world, I'm not convinced that at this stage, the Internet is still live TV, and they all care about a broken diet program, I want to care about those, your broken program occupies a lot of space, and I can't care about it." ”

"Ignorance is glory." Fang Hong: "Then let me tell you why we care about food culture. ”

"In the pre-Qin period, the combined population of our country was about 20 million, and in the Han Dynasty, the peak was more than 50 million. Why? Because of our exchanges with the Arab world, a large number of Arabic foods have entered China, including sweet potatoes and beans, which have caused a large number of population explosions, and China's civilization has exploded rapidly, and it has been the largest empire in the human world for two thousand years. ”

"However, after the Han Dynasty, the global temperature dropped, and our ancestors discovered rice, and everyone may think that rice is sparse and ordinary, but in fact, it flourished through exchanges with ethnic minorities in the south, and rice culture can represent the great Chinese culture to a certain extent. With this discovery, our population has been stable, and China has always been a huge empire. Do you know when the third population explosion in our country was? ”

The answer is the Qing Dynasty.

The reason is that the Age of Discovery arrived, and potatoes spread all over the world.

Potatoes had a faster cycle and greater yields than sweet potatoes, and the population of the entire Qing Dynasty exploded from 100 million in a century to 400 million in a century.

"In the Age of Discovery, we took Southeast Asia as a node to trade with the Western world, and although the Ming and Qing dynasties banned the sea, we still let potatoes enter China, and the population also showed explosive growth. If, I mean, if, if potatoes had entered China fifty years earlier and began to be cultivated in large quantities, the land annexation of the Ming Dynasty would have no meaning, and the Ming Dynasty would not have been destroyed. And the emergence of potatoes from the Americas was also the beginning of the explosion of global civilization. ”

"Why did potatoes enter China? That's because of the food culture exchange between the various ethnic groups. ”

There are always people who think that the development of science and technology is the foundation of human development, but in fact this is not the case. The exchange of food is the foundation of human strength. Without a huge population base, there will be no massive population growth.

And what about our country? If it weren't for Yuan Longping and Yuan Lao's hybrid rice, how could my country's economy progress, why did it return to the world stage, and what would people who couldn't afford to eat perform?

To a certain extent, in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was the concept of people taking food as the sky, and in essence, the emergence of television and movies is nothing more than a change in the form of opera and dance, and the automobile and airplane are just a change in power.

Humans are human because they wear clothes.

Humanity has advanced because of food.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation, now this bizarre world, back to the essence, is still just in the pursuit, eat better.

"The pursuit of eating better is the source of human progress, and who is doing this? The cook is cooking. ”

Of course, you can give an example of a world-class rich man who doesn't like to eat and pays more attention to ambition or something, but the pursuit of better food is the common goal of the whole human race or some large base classes.

Fang Hong wrote out his own menu while pulling the calves: "The appetizer is the husband and wife lung slices, the side dish boiled fish, the main dish spicy chicken, and the dessert flower rolls." ”

"Damn, Brother Gun, you just don't want to have a good time!"

In this menu, all four dishes are spicy, and even the dessert flower roll is spicy.

"I want to try these referees, I can't stand the spiciness." Fang Hong: "It stands to reason that they should be able to accept spicy, otherwise the Mexican team would have been eliminated a long time ago." ”

The first group is also a group of death, with Hui Cai appearing early, and the French team of Champagne Aden and Mexico will compete for the last place to qualify today.

This almost shows that these judges are actually receptive to spicy food, because Mexican food also has a spicy character.

"Brother Gun, after eating your meal, these judges will all have diarrhea tomorrow."

Fang Hong shrugged: "Then I can't care about it." ”

"Iran's menu is here!"

The sailors are familiar with the routine, and the people of the organizing committee will send the menu away and then come back, which must be the menu for the Iranian team.

Fang Hong showed the sailors: "As I expected, the appetizer is minced meat, the side dish is salad, the main dish is kebab scones, and the dessert is safflower ice cream." ”

Iranians really like saffron, they can add saffron to any food, and maybe the first few dishes will also add saffron, but the menu is not long enough to be written.

"Brother Gun, do you really want to use spicy chicken?"

"Yes."

"Why do I think that when the spicy is cooked, the whole arena will have to run for their lives."

Fang Hong raised his head and looked at the sky: "Then it depends on whether they are lucky or not, which way the wind is blowing." ”
