Zhang Shan seized the time and increased the firepower, and in just two or three minutes, the sweet and sour cherry wine sauce was ready. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the same time, there was a "ding" sound from the oven.
When you pull out the baking tray, a sweet and sour flavor mixed with duck meat immediately comes out.
Zhang Shan put the duck meat on the board, cut it into more than a dozen small pieces the size of a pear slice, and found a white four-cornered sailing plate, according to the order of a piece of pear and a piece of duck meat, like a "domino", and circled half a circle.
There were only a few minutes left, but he did not panic, but calmly took a spoonful of cherry wine sauce with a spoon, carefully sprinkled it on top of the duck breast and pear slices, and picked out two large cherries from the sauce pot that were not crushed and placed them aside, and found two lettuce leaves as a foil.
"When the time is up, all the contestants raise their hands and stop cooking immediately!"
At this time, Cao Kefan suddenly shouted.
All the contestants immediately raised their hands high, some of them looked proud, and they were very confident in their dishes, while some of the contestants had panicked faces, as if they had not completed their due ideas within the stipulated time.
Zhang Shan smiled and looked at his meticulous work, the time was just right!
"Okay, now the six players in the first row are invited."
Li Zongsheng clapped his hands and said, and the six players in the first row immediately walked up to the dining rack with their own dishes, and the six dishes were colorful, and it seemed that they had put a lot of effort into the plating.
The three judges walked up to the first person, "What kind of dish are you?" ”
"Sichuan Spicy Duck."
Liu Yifan pursed his mouth, stepped forward to add a piece, chewed for a while, shook his head and said, "There is nothing new." ”
"yes, I see." After Li Zongsheng tasted it, he also said.
After Cao Kefan tasted it, his small eyes narrowed, full of deep meaning.
Subsequently, the three of them tasted the dishes of the six contestants in turn, and after discussing for a while, Liu Yifan nodded and called the names of the three people, "You three are out of the ranks!" ”
"I want to congratulate you on staying on the stage of Top Chef."
"Great!"
"Oh my God, I made it!"
……
The three of them were overjoyed and immediately hugged each other excitedly.
Cao Kefan turned and said: "The remaining three people, it's a pity to take off your aprons, you failed." ”
The remaining three rows of players were a little moved, Zhang Shan knew that nine players would be eliminated in this round, and the top 15 players in the country would be finally selected.
Immediately after, the second row walked up, including Liang Yi and Li Qiurui.
Li Qiurui closed her eyes, she really had her back, how could she be in a group with such a pervert!
Liu Yifan first tasted her dish, which was a duck with cranberry sauce, and after a few seconds, he said solemnly: "The time for pouring the sauce is not right, and the duck meat is not fully flavored." ”
"I'm sorry, teacher, this is my first time cooking duck meat, please forgive me."
Li Qiurui was not good at making duck, so she spent most of her time creating dishes on the spot, and in the end she was short of time, so she was a little flustered when she finally put it on the plate.
After Li Zongsheng and Cao Kefan tasted it, they nodded and shook their heads, but they didn't speak.
Li Qiurui was in a hurry, it's over, two of the three judges are too optimistic, is it going to be eliminated now?
When it was Liang Yi's turn, his five-spiced medicinal food and eight-treasure duck was picked up whole, and his stomach was full of various ingredients and medicinal food, which was fragrant and good-looking.
Liu Yifan tasted the ingredients in the duck's belly, and tore off a piece of duck meat, "Very good, with a hint of spicy flavor in the fragrance, it is positive enough, Babao duck, good color!" ”
"Nice, delicious!"
……
Of the six contestants, Liang Yi undoubtedly made the cut, and there were four others with him, leaving Li Qiurui and a female nail salon owner.
"I'm sorry, please take off your apron and leave." Cao Kefan sighed at the nail salon owner, and then said to Li Qiurui: "Li Qiurui, first of all, I have to tell you that you didn't complete this challenge well, so I'm sorry......"
It's over, it's over!
Li Qiurui's eyes were red, is it really going to end?
Who knows, Cao Kefan's voice changed, and he said with a smile: "Because you have to meet more severe challenges next, congratulations, you have successfully advanced!" ”
"I ...... Did I make the cut? Li Qiurui was a little dazed, the surprise came too suddenly.
Liu Yifan nodded in confirmation, "That's right, although your dish has some flaws, we saw your idea on the sauce, using cranberries with duck meat, it's very bold, I hope you can continue to work hard!" ”
"Thank you, teacher!"
Li Qiurui excitedly clapped her hands and thanked her, and immediately ran to the stage.
Zhang Shan wanted to laugh a little in his heart, obviously, Cao Kefan only asked the nail salon owner to leave, indicating that there was only one person eliminated in this row, and the remaining sentences were all for the effect of the show.
Next, it was Zhang Shan's turn to step forward.
Liu Yifan was the first to come to his dish, "Are you sure your dish is finished?" ”
Zhang Shan nodded: "It's done, roast duck breast with sweet pear and red wine, please use it slowly with the three judges!" ”
Cao Kefan's eyes lit up when he saw the dishes, on the white sailboat plate, the yellow pear slices and the crispy duck breast were neatly arranged, and a purple-red sauce was poured on it, and then with the green lettuce leaves and two big red cherries next to it, from the color matching, it gave people a very pleasing feeling.
He picked up a knife and fork, inserted a piece of duck meat and pear slices, and put it in his mouth, "Hmm! Quite good, the duck meat is tender and fragrant, the sweet pear is moist but not greasy, with the cherry wine sauce, it is sour and delicious, a good dish! ”
Li Zongsheng also tasted it, "It's really delicious, red wine with duck meat, that kind of sour and mellow, it seems to put me on the streets of Bolivia, full of exotic wonder!" ”
Liu Yifan finished eating duck meat and pear slices, and ate a decorative cherry and lettuce leaves, and said while chewing: "The decorations are not random, the combination of ingredients is very good, not bad!" ”
In order to look good, ordinary people may choose something that looks good at will.
But Zhang Shan's plating, the sourness of the cherries can be appetizing, the bitterness of the lettuce leaves can reduce the sweetness of the pear juice, and the taste of the duck breast is first-class, which has reached the taste of a Michelin-starred Western chef.
Liu Yifan looked at Zhang Shan thoughtfully, a Chinese chef with such good knife skills is not easy to cook Western food.
Without any suspense, Zhang Shan successfully advanced with this sweet pear red wine roast duck meat, and then, two rows of players eliminated a total of six, but I didn't expect that the bearded man actually passed again.
At this point, the top 15 in the country of "Top Chef" was officially born!
