127 Winners and Losers
The so-called "Sword Flower Cake" is a new dish made by Long Lie with reference to the traditional snack lotus cake with slight modifications.
Lotus crisp, which looks like a blooming lotus flower, is originally a flour-stacked bud, but once fried, the dough is fried to a light and crispy light, and naturally bends into the shape of petals. Each petal of puff pastry can also be separated into layers, usually composed of seven or eight layers, leaving enough gaps to be clearly visible. After feeling the difference with the lotus in reality, it shows the charm of pastry even more.
This style, even in the previous life, is a rare and rare dish, not to mention the cultural heritage behind this exquisiteness.
The most critical step of lotus cake is the process of rolling into the oil pan and slowly blooming. Therefore, it has very high requirements for oil temperature, and it has to be tightened to that standard. If it is too high, the puff pastry will stick together and will not bloom, and if it is too low, it will be difficult to stand up and become loose and crumbling.
In the pastry pastry, making lotus cake requires all aspects to be taken into account, which can be called a difficult dish, so even if Long Lie generously demonstrated the whole process, it would be impossible for those present to learn it.
And Long Lie's sword flower cake, in terms of shape, is completely inspired by the eldest sister's natal beast, not like the six petals of the lotus, but he took a risk to cut out twelve petals, and the impact of this flowering is naturally multiplied. What's more, after passing through the dragon xu, the petals become thin and thin, like hundreds of erect needles, just like the sword flower.
Such a bold attempt, to be honest, even Long Lie couldn't be completely sure, he originally thought that if it failed, he would take the shapeless sword flower cake and reshape it with a new shape. I didn't expect them to be so competitive in one step.
As for the filling of the sword flower cake, in order to improvise, he had asked Zhong Xuanyang to make many alternative ingredients long ago. When the sword flower was really finalized, Long Lie did not use the mild coconut bean paste. On the contrary, in order to restore the luster of the sword flower "Red Pearl", the most partial small fragrant pork balls in it were used, as long as they were done, meat would always be a sharp weapon in the game.
And the key to Long Lie's meatballs, an ingredient that has changed from cheap to expensive, is his flower sauce. These flowers obtained from Longcheng Ning's house had only appeared in the "Sifang Chengxiang Porridge" before, and now it is the second time it has shined.
It turned out that he made a very steady move, at least in appearance, the meatballs soaked in flower sauce, after the process of frying and moisturizing, penetrated into the meatballs little by little, and even its pink color was dyed into an emerald ruby, and from a distance, I thought that a cherry was placed in the petal puff pastry.
Long Lie ignored the eager looks of the guests, picked up a sword flower cake, looked left and right, and always felt that something was missing. A key point that can completely overpower the hedgehog and let him win steadily.
Long Xu, who was standing on the side, only felt that her depression had disappeared suddenly after witnessing the blooming of the flowers, and even her mood had changed a lot, so she added fuel to the fire, "Don't you try the fragrance?" His star skills, which are not often displayed, can definitely become the last straw that overwhelms the Chef League.
Long Lie hooked the corners of his mouth when he heard this, since this is the case, he is not polite.
He waved his hand to summon an ear of wheat, and the crowd suddenly erupted in an exclamation, after all, the name "Goddess of Wheat Ears" has been quite loud recently.
In the next second, the pale golden mist that rose to the sky directly wrapped hundreds of sword cakes on the desk, and they were blown to a slightly yellowed puff pastry.
In the five flavors of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, Long Lie deliberately released a sweet flavor, which should be combined with the flower sauce inside and outside, and joined forces.
Although Long Lie is only aimed at this small area, the fragrance is also irrepressibly diffused to the audience, and the more crowded the occasion, the more interesting the scene is.
Some of the guests who smelled this aroma were intoxicated, some had their hands around their chests, and some jumped on the spot...... It is a hodgepodge of performance art.
At this moment, the steak next door was officially baked, but it became no longer inconspicuous, Ning Xinghe couldn't help but darken his eyes and grit his steel teeth.
Owen on the stage smelled this smell, and hurriedly blocked his nose, this kid's evil nature directly ruined his brewing good temper. Even if the new generation of the Long family will one day repeat the mistakes of the past, the anger he suffered at this time is not weaker than that of the Long family's three evils.
Long Lie saw that Ning Xinghe had come out, and finally stopped moving, and he said casually, "EU master, this cooking competition is also over, how do you think we should tell the winner?"
He wasn't ready to ask Owen to answer at all, and then added, "Seeing that we have made such a large portion on both sides, it is better to distribute it and let the guests try it, and directly vote for the public."
Long Lie turned his head and went down, "Do you think it's okay?"
"Okay!" such a question, of course, would get such a reaction, and suddenly blocked the possibility of Owen. Let him rise into a pig's liver face, it won't help.
Long Lie directly took the initiative and began to explain, "My dim sum is called Sword Flower Cake" Before he finished speaking, the eldest sister interrupted quietly on the side, "It's too ugly, it's not like it at all" Long Lie's whimsical idea, she actually disliked it.
Long Lie couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only immediately change his mind.
His gaze swept back and forth from the audience, and finally recognized the golden-masked Prince Nishigami, who was still low-key and silent as he had been at the graduation ceremony of the chef's class before. But around him, with an invisible aura, a wonderful magnetic field was formed, gathering a large number of dignitaries and dignitaries, which was really impossible to ignore.
Long Lie bent his eyes and said in a loud voice, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you want to try it first?"
As soon as these words came out, Owen immediately interrupted, "Presumptuous!" If Long Lie really borrowed the power of His Royal Highness the Prince, there would be no suspense in this game, "You unfamiliar cuisine, how dare you let His Royal Highness the Prince try it first!"
"It's okay" Prince Xiyuan suddenly spoke, his voice was as warm as jade, but full of energy, as if he had generated an irresistible king's qi, which instantly restrained the atmosphere of the scene, and even Long Lie couldn't help but miss half a beat of his heartbeat.
The guests were amazed, and no one could have imagined that the prince would agree to such an impudent request.
Jia Ru in the audience also suddenly widened her eyes, she was a little overwhelmed, watching the prince walk through the surging crowd and step by step onto the high platform.
"Your Royal Highness, why don't you try my apprentice's steak of light first," Owen hurriedly cut off his beard, causing Long Xu on the stage to roll his eyes.
Owen is still wearing a bright chef's uniform, intentionally or unintentionally showing his alliance leader label.
As the only prince of the empire, Nishigaki has always been known for his steadiness and will not easily offend others. The prince is also a gourmand in the capital, so he naturally wants to give the chef alliance leader a few thin noodles, he nodded, "Okay, then I'll try the steak first, and then try the sword flower cake."
The prince moved to Ning Xinghe's stove, and Long Lie followed closely behind, and when he saw the finished steak of light, he even praised sincerely, "It's a great job!"
But when these words fell into the ears of Ning Xinghe and Owen, they were automatically filtered into full mockery.
At the same time, Long Lie also picked up a plate of steak directly from the beginning, chewed it carefully and stuffed it into his mouth.
As soon as the mouth is entered, it is still the bright taste, directly washing the body and mind, sweeping the pores of the whole body, and after chewing, the effect of the heart fire is even more revealed, and the warm touch is lingering between the lips and teeth, as if a soft flame has burst open, and it has vitality out of thin air.
Even Long Lie felt the warmth of embodiment because of this, and his thoughts suddenly pulled back to the fiery temper of the master in the previous life, Rongyi Garden......
If the previous steak of light belonged to the D-level high-level cuisine, then this enhanced version, relying on the powerful star skills of the Heart Fire Hedgehog, directly entered the C-level intermediate level, which is undoubtedly stronger than the C-level beginner fan scallop of Long Lie.
Prince Nishigaki's golden mask only covered the upper half of his face, which did not affect his eating, and after Nishigaki finished eating the steak, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and finally nodded heavily to show his affirmation. This scene fell to the Star Shadow screen in its entirety, and the floating minds of the guests gathered again, pushing the momentum of the steak of light to the peak.
His Royal Highness the Prince, who has never been obtrusive, can make him react so much, and this so-called "purifying cuisine" is undoubtedly the first step to success.
Owen was secretly happy in his heart, Ning Xinghe's performance this time was completely extraordinary, and now he can take the lead in inviting the prince to occupy the high ground of public opinion, and it is stable!
Then, Prince Nishigaki walked towards Long Lie's sword cake, and under the watchful eye, everyone held their breath.
Long Lie was still immersed in the steak of light, and did not follow, leaving Long Xu stationed in place, she saw the arrival of the prince, and handed a pair of chopsticks casually, and her movements could be called careless. Prince Nishigaki suddenly bowed down and saluted before taking the chopsticks.
Before everyone had time to be surprised by this unreasonable scene, the prince had already stuffed the little sword cake into his mouth.
In the next second, Prince Xiyuan lost his temper like never before, and he suddenly looked back at Long Lie, "How did you do it?!"
After this sound, Ning Xinghe's heart also shattered.
