The selection of famous snacks in Meitan County is scheduled to be held on August 30 and 31 at the Tianhu Hotel. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Tianhu Hotel is a five-star hotel located on the banks of the Meijiang River in Mae Tan County.
Different from ordinary hotels, the shape of Tianhu Hotel is a large teapot more than 70 meters high, which is a national 4A-level scenic spot and one of the top ten charming attractions in Qianzhou Province.
This large teapot is a landmark of Mae Tan and has passed the Guinness Book of Certification, which is the largest physical teapot shape in the world today, and is known as the first pot in the world. Therefore, the hotel hidden inside the teapot was named "Tianhu Hotel".
Tianhu Hotel is the reception unit of famous snacks, and Zhou Xianying is the general manager of Tianhu Hotel. Therefore, she knows the number of people who participate in the selection of famous snacks.
She told Rao that so far, more than 200 people have signed up.
Zhou Xianying expects that by the time the selection event begins, it is estimated that about 300 people will bring their own food to participate in the selection of famous snacks in Mae Tan.
These delicacies include stinky tofu, kebabs, toothpick meat, fried artichoke, egg wrapping, skewers, ice powder, cold noodles, hot pot, game, fried rice, mutton noodles and other hundreds of snacks.
It is not easy to stand out among so many delicacies, get the top eight, and get the qualification to participate in the selection of famous snacks in Zunyi City.
Therefore, in order to participate in this selection and win the award, in addition to improving the taste of chicken soup, Rao Mingyang also wanted to improve his cooking skills.
Although it is very simple to cook soup powder, just cook the mung bean flour, put it in chicken broth, put seasonings and sauerkraut, crispy pork, and chopped green onions, and you can cook it.
The selection of famous snacks is not a competition to test the level of chefs, and there are no rigid requirements for the operation process of chefs.
But if Rao Mingyang can improve his cooking skills and show the beauty of a professional chef in the process of cooking the soup noodles, it will undoubtedly leave a better impression on the judges.
If you want to improve your cooking skills, in addition to going to a chef school, you can only rely on the system.
Going to study at the chef school, Rao Mingyang naturally didn't have time, so he could only hope for the lottery of the food system.
After more than half a month of accumulation, conquering the taste of dozens of guests every day, Rao Mingyang's cumulative achievement points have reached more than 1,900 points, and the balance of achievement points is still dozens of points away before the lottery can be held again.
According to the system, if you are lucky, it is possible to draw a cooking skill book, and you can directly become a junior chef after learning.
In this way, the well-known culinary skills can be raised to the level of culinary school graduates.
Therefore, Rao Mingyang is looking forward to reaching a balance of 1,000 achievement points, and then conducting a lottery and winning the cooking skill book.
On August 26th, when there were still 3 days left to start the selection of famous snacks, Rao Mingyang's cumulative achievement points finally exceeded 2,000, and the balance of achievement points also reached 1,000 points.
In the evening, after returning to his bedroom after dinner, Rao Mingyang couldn't wait to open the food system and start the lottery.
The lottery box quickly scrolled, and Rao Mingyang couldn't help but worship the gods and Buddhas in his heart, looking forward to drawing a cooking skill book for him.
After half a minute, Rao Mingyang clicked the "stop" button nervously.
Then, the lottery box quickly stopped, and a line of text popped up: 1 cooking skills book.
Rao Mingyang waved his fist excitedly and shouted, "Yay! ”
Tian Wenying's voice came from downstairs: "Mingyang, what are you shouting?" ”
"It's nothing, I'm playing a game!"
Rao Mingyang answered, and then clicked on the system package, only to see a blue book lying in the second compartment of the system package. The first box is a few packets of stock essence powder.
However, when Rao Mingyang wanted to take out the cooking skill book to take a look, he found that he couldn't take it out at all.
At this moment, the system spoke: "The cooking skill book is an item that cannot appear in the real world, and the host can double-click to learn it directly!" ”
"I see!" Rao Mingyang nodded.
This kind of unscientific object really shouldn't be in the real world.
Then, Rao Mingyang double-clicked on the skill book with his mind. I saw that the skill book turned into a streamer, flew out of the system screen, and rushed into Rao Mingyang's body.
The next moment, Rao Ming felt a mysterious feeling in his mind.
He thought about mung bean flour for a while, and information such as how much mung bean flour to put in, how much time to cook, how much seasoning to put in, how much to scoop chicken soup, and how much to sprinkle green onions naturally appeared in his mind, as if it was his own skill.
By the way, how to boil the chicken soup, how many condiments to put in, and how much fire to put also clearly appeared in Rao Mingyang's mind.
Thinking about egg fried rice again, information immediately appeared in my mind about what kind of cold rice I wanted, how much oil and salt, how big the heat was, and how to turn the pot.
Moreover, Rao Mingyang felt that his body had also undergone some changes. I clenched my fist with my hand, and it felt like both hands were much stronger.
The chef is a manual job, and fried rice and stir-fried vegetables are all about turning the pot. Obviously, this cooking skills book has adjusted Rao Mingyang's physical condition to the physical level of a junior chef.
Then, Rao Mingyang thought about the Manchu and Han Dynasty again, but his mind was blank, and there was no information.
It seems that junior chefs have not been able to master the cooking skills of the Manchu and Han full banquets, and can only master some ordinary cooking skills, which is also in line with the title of junior chef.
The next morning, Rao Mingyang went to the store to make preparations, and when he cut sauerkraut, crispy meat, and green onions, he found that his knife skills had improved, his speed had accelerated, and his movements had become more beautiful, and the crispy meat and green onions he had cut out had become even and beautiful.
When the chicken soup is boiled and Rao Mingyang cooks himself a bowl of mung bean flour for breakfast, he has a more accurate grasp of the cooking time and the amount of seasoning, and the taste of mung bean flour seems to have improved a little.
Feeling the earth-shaking change in his cooking skills, Rao Mingyang was very excited.
After learning the cooking skill book and obtaining the skills of a junior chef, there is an additional chef skill in Rao's system menu, and the skill bar on it is displayed as 0. To upgrade to an intermediate chef, you need 10 skill points, which is 10 cooking skill books.
After Rao Mingyang drew the cooking skill book, the product of the cooking skill book also appeared in the mall, and the price was also 1 gold coin, equivalent to 1,000 yuan each.
Rao Mingyang has made a profit of more than 20,000 yuan in the past half a month, and there is still 10,000 yuan to buy ten skill books.
So, after closing that afternoon, he went to the bank to withdraw 10,000 yuan and rushed into the system, bought ten cooking skills books to learn, and improved his cooking skills to the level of an intermediate chef.
Then, Rao Mingyang saw that the skill points required to upgrade from a mid-level chef to a high-level chef had become 100. That is, 100 skill books, 100,000 yuan.
Now Rao Mingyang doesn't have so much money, so he can only wait until he earns 100,000 yuan!
