Chapter 67: Dolphin Poison
A total of 21 chefs participated in the Rogge Town Cooking Competition, which was divided into two stages: preliminary and final. In the preliminary competition, the chef's knife skills are mainly tested, and the final requires the chefs to make exquisite dishes with a specified ingredient, and when the four judges taste them, they will use the scoring method to determine the quality of the dishes, and the one with the highest score will naturally be the champion of this year's cooking competition.www.biquge.info
"I'm sure all the chefs are well aware of the competition, so we're going to send the ingredients to the test now," said the host Kassan, standing on the high platform.
I saw more than 20 young women in red ceremonial clothes slowly walking out of the backstage, each of them holding a plate covered with a garden lid, and the plate was the ingredients for the knife test.
"What could it be? I know that the hardest thing is the cloud halogen, if you use the knife to offset it a little, it will shatter completely."
"Not necessarily, it may also be a jade in the snow, his vegetable leaves are as white as ice, and there is only a small fine line on it that can be cut, once there is a deviation, the taste of the food will be much worse"
Tang Ming on the judge's seat also showed curiosity, although it was the first time to participate in such a cooking competition as a judge, he also knew that knife work was the basic skill of a chef, if this was not qualified, then he could not become a top chef at all.
"Colonel Tang Ming, it's a pleasure to meet you here," Hessel, the flower of Rogue Town, who was sitting next to Tang Ming, said with a sudden smile.
"Miss Hessel, hello, I've been in Rogue Town for so long, I've often heard your name" Tang Ming told a little lie, in fact, if he hadn't participated in today's competition, he really didn't know that there was such a big beauty in Rogue Town.
Hearing this, Hessel's face turned slightly blushing, and the whole person was even more dazzling, bright and moving, Tang Ming was a little stunned for a while.
"I'll go, it's a poisonous dolphin, this is highly poisonous food"
"Yes, I heard that a drop of poison juice in his body can poison the tiger in the mountains, but fortunately, it has no attack ability"
"How could you choose such an ingredient!"
The sudden exclamation from below suddenly woke Tang Ming, and he looked down curiously, only to see a series of snow-white, small and cute fish appearing in front of him.
"It's a sea poison dolphin, it's a bit difficult," Florence, the eldest, showed a hint of surprise on her face when she saw it.
"Master Florence, can you explain it to me? I don't know much about this," Tang Ming asked with some curiosity.
"Colonel Tang Ming is polite, this kind of sea poison dolphin is actually not a rare material, on the contrary, it can be salvaged in many places, but because it contains toxins in its body, it is not edible for ordinary people at all," Florence explained carefully with a smile.
"Then why are you still using it to test your knife skills," Tang Ming continued to ask.
"This is because the toxins of the dolphin come from the poisonous gallbladder in the body, the poisonous gallbladder is very easy to break, once broken, then the whole fish is completely inedible, but if the poisonous gall is taken out through superb knife skills, then the poisonous dolphin is a rare delicacy, but there are too few chefs with such knife skills" Florence's face showed a hint of memory.
After listening, Tang Ming finally understood, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your doubts, Master Florence."
"Colonel, you're welcome"
The chefs in front of the cooking table, who were originally full of confidence, suddenly looked nervous when they saw the dolphin.
"Chefs, the ingredient for this test knife skill is the sea poison dolphin, as long as you can successfully remove the poisonous gall in its body within half an hour, you can advance to the next round, and the timer starts now" Cassana's passionate voice came again.
After listening, the chefs carefully took out the dolphins, and most of the hands holding the knives trembled slightly.
"Ahh It's too deep" I saw that a chef accidentally punctured the poisonous gallbladder because he was not paying attention with the knife, and suddenly the whole snow-white dolphin slowly turned black.
"I'm sorry, you've been eliminated," one of the people in charge said with an apologetic face.
"It looks like this round will wipe out a lot of people," said Dolo, the founder of the food magazine, with some sighs.
After a short while, many chefs were taken away from the arena, and their faces were extremely ugly.
"Wow, this is the ninth"
"The tenth, the Hebrew master turned out to be a failure"
"It's a bit too difficult."
In the end, only six contestants remained on the field, and five of them looked extremely focused, carefully cutting the skin of the dolphin, but the last one surprised everyone.
"What's going on with that guy, why don't you do it!"
"Are you scared, your hands have become weak?"
On the right side of the arena, in front of a cooking table in the corner, a young man in a white chef's suit, a chef's hat on his head, and a slight smile on his face stood motionless.
"Hello, Mr. Chef, the preliminary round is only half an hour, and now 20 minutes have passed, don't you start yet?" After a person in charge saw it, he walked over and kindly reminded him.
"Don't be in a hurry!!" The man's face showed a deep confidence.
Hearing this, the person in charge glanced at him suspiciously, and finally could only shake his head and leave.
"Look, Mr. Brenda has succeeded, and he is worthy of being the best disciple of Master Florence" I saw a middle-aged man in his forties, who had successfully taken out the poisonous gall, and the body of the sea poisonous dolphin did not change color in the slightest.
"Master, congratulations, congratulations, Mr. Brenda was the first to take out the poisonous gall, and sure enough, it was a true legend, and I think the champion of this competition is likely to be him" After Dolo saw it, he said to Florence with joy, and Tang Ming and Hessel next to him also smiled and said hello.
"Thank you, thank you, this guy is not my best disciple, but he definitely works the hardest, after so many years, he finally has his own faction" Florence's face looked very relieved.
After a while, two more chefs succeeded in removing the poisonous gall, but two others unfortunately failed, and in the end, the only man in the whole arena was the man who had not yet moved.
"What to do, it's only five minutes, can you do it, don't delay everyone's time"
"It's just that it's not a shame to not be able to take it out, but it's shameful to be on the field like this"
The crowd of onlookers saw the man who had not moved on the field, and immediately screamed impatiently.
"Who is he??" Tang Ming glanced at the young man in the corner and asked with some curiosity.
"I haven't seen it, it shouldn't be a local chef, what the hell is he doing, I've seen the poisonous dolphin and it takes 8 minutes at the earliest" Doro said with a frown.
The handsome man didn't care about the shouts around him at all, but slowly smoked a cigarette in his hand, and then picked up a kitchen knife on the table at random, showing a confident smile on his face, only to see that after a flash of knife light, a black poisonous gall had fallen into the small bowl next to him.
"I'll go, who is he, he took out the poisonous gall so quickly"
"Oh my God, I've only had a few flashes of swords in my eyes."
Seeing this scene, the onlookers at the scene suddenly shouted in surprise, with an incredible look in their eyes. Dolo, Florence, and Hessel on the high platform were also full of surprise.
But Tang Ming's brows furrowed slightly at this time, and his eyes looked at this strange man carefully.
"So deep and domineering"
