Chapter 45: A Difficult Final
Since Zhong Tianzheng came to this world, he has always been quite confident in his cooking skills, after all, he was once a chef god.
Then a series of smoothing allowed him to confirm his ideas.
"It seems that I am a little fluttering, and I have been busy practicing steel boxing and internal strength for a while, neglecting the practice of cooking, and I will still insist on cooking in the future. Zhong Tianzheng secretly made up his mind.
Zhong Tianzheng observed the surroundings, it didn't matter if he looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that his heart was not bound.
"I have detected that there are a large number of cooking masters around, who are competing with the host, triggering special tasks, and successfully defeating other opponents can obtain high-level rewards, and failure will deduct the durability of the inn. ”
"What is durability? Why haven't I heard you say it before?And what are the premium rewards?"
"Before, because of the host, in the novice protection period, so the durability of the inn is fixed, and now the host has entered the rookie stage, so the durability of the inn will drop a little bit every day, the total value is 100 points, when the meal drops 50 points, half of the inn's functions cannot be used, and when the durability of the inn reaches zero, the host will be wiped out. ”
Zhong Tianzheng took a breath of cold air, but the movements in his hands did not stop, there were a large number of chefs in Fengshi Villa around, and there was no chance to enter the cooking space at all, otherwise, it would be much easier, Zhong Tianzheng compared with these, the chefs of this world, the hand speed is still a little insufficient.
However, cooking is a combination of talent and hard work, some people are born unable to cook, and some people are easy to learn to cook, which is normal.
"Premium rewards are different from general rewards in that you can get the base value of a special ability, please note that the ability obtained is randomly selected. ”
"Abilities?" Zhong Tianzheng's heart was moved.
But now it's time to win the game!
"Two contestants are cooking Cantonese cuisine, one is cooking Lu cuisine, the others should be local specialties, I haven't seen them, and the other is also cooking Sichuan cuisine, which is the player Zhong Tianzheng met before. ”
When Zhong Tianzheng was cooking, he kept cutting the ingredients, constantly stirring the spoon in the pot, adding firewood regularly, and sometimes pulling the bellows, or adjusting the gate to control the size of the fire.
The same is true for other contestants, in the absence of modern kitchenware, this world has a lot of effort to cook, and it is also slightly different, but it is basically the same, stir-fry is stir-fry, cooking skills are not good, no matter what, the dish will not be delicious, this batch of goods is eternal.
Among the crowd of onlookers, the two middle-aged people were the most conspicuous, Long Zaitian, who was sitting in the center, and the local county keeper named Zizaidi. Comfortably the same age as the dragon in the sky, but Comfortably is obviously a little older.
Behind him, with several private soldiers.
This country allows large families and some high-ranking officials to raise private soldiers, but they must be truthfully registered, and at the same time, they cannot make armor, and violators will be connected to the nine clans.
In addition, the state regularly sends some people from these private soldiers to the front line in proportion to the situation, and regularly conducts training in school competitions.
"Brother Zi, what do you think of the strength of this year's players?"
The county guard touched his beard, as a prefect, it is also his duty to regularly select people with excellent cooking skills to the imperial court.
"Hahaha, yes, yes, there are a large number of new culinary talents, which is also a blessing for the country, and these people will be the pillars of talent in the future. ”
The county guard of the Black Leopard Mansion said.
In this country, the clothing of officials of different ranks is also different, and the dignity of officials can be seen at a glance.
Long Zaitian is also very satisfied, he has been immersed in cooking for many years, and it can be seen that the strength of these players is not tacky, especially that Zhong Tianzheng and another player, their performance is very exciting.
"The old man seems that the player who makes Sichuan cuisine is relatively good, and his unhurried knife skills are also good, although he is not as good as the eight chefs of the imperial court, but if he polishes it over time, he will also be a talent that can be created in the future, hehehe. Zi Zitian said.
"Oh, by the way, I don't know if my lord came here suddenly, but what do you want to announce?" said Long Zaitian.
He thought to himself, this old fox, he can't afford to be early, he came to the finals uninvited today, and he doesn't know what the hell he is doing.
"Bo, since I came here this time, it is also for official business, and when the game is over, I will announce it. Zi Zitian said.
He thought to himself, "The old thing asks questions like a fly." ”
The two men sat there with different thoughts.
The families and some officials in this world are mutually contained, and they often have the most core conflicts of interest, and no one looks at anyone well, which Zhong Tian understood after studying some books in this world.
Zhong Tianzheng thought to himself: "It is estimated that the emperor deliberately did this, so as to stabilize the regime, the wisdom of the ancient emperor's art is not something that ordinary people can think of." ”
......
Shangguan Yan also came to the scene of the kitchen competition, and she kept looking at Zhong Tianzheng.
"Come on. She secretly cheered him on.
But she didn't dare to say hello to him, she was afraid that Zhong Tianzheng would be distracted, and after getting along for so long, she understood what this game meant to him.
Shangguan Yan's thoughts went back to that night.
On the roof of the inn, Shangguan Yan asked, "Xiao Tianzheng, what is your ambition?"
She looked at Zhong Tianzheng with big watery eyes.
Zhong Tianzheng's answer made a deep impression on her.
"I want to be the best chef in the world. Zhong Tianliang said in a firm tone.
At that moment, Shangguan Yan was attracted by this man's determined eyes, she seemed sure that she was in love with him, but she was embarrassed to say it.
In her concept, only men chase women, and women chase men, and she doesn't dare to do it, but she feels that now is not the time.

Method nine, he used 2 chicken thighs
, 25 dried chili peppers
, 30 peppercorns
, 2 cloves of garlic
, 2 slices of ginger
, 1 teaspoon of salt
, 10 grams of sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon of starch
, 1 teaspoon of cooking wine
, 1 teaspoon light soy sauce, 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
Preparation of diced spicy chicken
1. Large collection of materials
2. Wash the chicken thighs and chop them into small pieces, the smaller the better, and pay attention to safety when chopping the chicken thighs
3. The chicken is almost cut to such a size
4. Put the chopped chicken thighs into a bowl, add starch, cooking wine, light soy sauce and salt, stir well, marinate for half an hour, and put more salt
5. Cut the dried chili pepper into sections, and slice the garlic and ginger
6. Heat the pot and add vegetable oil, the disadvantage of this dish is that it costs oil, so put more oil
7. When the oil is heated to 7 or 8, that is, there are small bubbles on the surface of the oil, but it has not yet boiled, put the marinated chicken in the pot and keep stir-frying to prevent it from sticking to the pan
8. When the chicken changes color two or three minutes, it can be fished out, and the oil can be controlled for later use
9. Fill out the excess oil, leave some bottom oil in the pan, turn to medium heat, after the oil is hot, stir-fry the ginger and garlic
10. Add dried chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, and stir-fry constantly to prevent sticking
Put the diced chicken that has just been fried into the pot, continue to stir-fry and stir-fry until the diced chicken is cooked thoroughly, add it to the plate before coming out of the pot, it is spicy and pressing, "rice killer", and the weight loss is soaked in the soup
Here is an explanation of why more salt should be added to raw chicken, because after the first time it is fried in the pan, the surface of the chicken is already crispy, and if you put salt, the taste of salt can no longer penetrate the soft heart of the chicken, so in order to absorb the flavor, you must put more salt at the beginning;
2. Personally, I think this dish is more delicious when fried dry, but this one has a slightly stricter requirements for the heat of the final stir-fry, so you do what you can, and it is definitely better to do it once than once. When stir-frying dried chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, the heat should be low, and the stir-fry should be excellent. Cook an appropriate amount of fresh soup, not only to make the fried chicken soft, but also not too much water.
The chicken is fried quickly with pheasant chicken, the chicken is tender and can be fried quickly, the old chicken needs to be pressed in a pressure cooker and then taken out to fry, and some red chili peppers can be added before the pan to match the color.
