Chapter 416: One More Try
For Su Congshuang's cooking, Xie Xiongfei is full of praise, but in addition to exaggeration, he still has a trace of doubt, thinking for a long time, and finally no longer reluctant, people will always have things that they are not good at and do not know, Xie Xiongfei is no exception, even as the first chef of Chaoshan, Su Congshuang's cooking has a secret that he can't eat.
Xie Xiongfei shook his head self-deprecatingly, but he didn't care at all, but asked Su Congshuang for advice: "But in this soup base, it should be far more than just using Huadiao wine, right?" β
Su Congshuang nodded, compared to Yao Xu's stinginess, Su Congshuang was much more generous, and didn't care that others would steal her skills, and said: "Yes, Master Chef, I also added two catties of thick soup left over after boiling in this chicken soup." β
Xie Xiongfei pondered for a while, and then had an epiphany: "I see, it is not easy to steam the chicken with Huadiao wine to make it mellow and fragrant, and then use the extremely sweet soup left over from the boiled thin shell to cook the chicken, and then keep hanging it, it is really not easy to make such a clear soup." β
Xie Xiongfei laughed lightly, and then reborn confused, as a Chaoshan person, he has an almost paranoid fanaticism for making soup, Guangzhou people love to make old fire soup, and clear soup is the favorite of Chaoshan people. Xie Xiongfei also developed a clear soup in private, but he had never cooked such a clear broth.
Xie Xiongfei then said modestly: "I don't know if this chef can tell me the secret of your selection of ingredients?" β
In addition to cooking skills, ingredients are one of the keys to absolute taste of food. The quality of the ingredients will affect the basic taste of the dish itself, and cabbage with sour ingredients will not be able to bring out the sweet and refreshing taste no matter how much you cook it. A good ingredient will bring out the best in the chef. If kitchen utensils are guns. Then the ingredient is ammunition, and the firepower of ammunition can also affect the lethality of the gun.
Su Congshuang can make such a clear soup, and he must be very particular about the selection of materials.
Xie Xiongfei said self-deprecatingly: "Even if it's a free-range chicken in Qingyuan, I'm afraid it won't be able to cook such a clear soup, right?" β
Su Congshuang smiled and explained, "No, the chicken I used to boil chicken soup." It is a thin-shelled rice chicken bred by the Hong family. This chicken is grown using thin-shelled rice, the meat is smooth and sweet, and the meat is free of impurities, and I also remove the fat under the skin of the chicken before putting it in the pan. When boiling soup like this, the intestines will be reduced as much as possible. I also have the elbow meat, which is also made of the best black pig's trotters, although the black pork is firmer. But it only takes its sweetness, and the smell is even lower. The taste is also purer. β
Xie Xiongfei laughed and said, "Hahaha, good, it's really beautiful, ordinary ingredients." It can also be done to the extreme, which is the essence of the way of cooking, a dish that is truly attentive. That's how it should be, to be able to make a home-cooked dish to such an impressive level. The afterlife is terrible, the afterlife is terrible! β
Xie Xiongfei's praise for Su Congshuang made Yao Xu a little unhappy to a certain extent, Xie Xiongfei's words obviously had a good impression of the sharp rice pills made by Su Congshuang, and some belittled Yao Xu's use of the top ingredients of the best ivory mussels.
Yao Xu clenched his fists, and looked at Su Congshuang's eyes with a little viciousness, in his opinion, Su Congshuang's approach was simply opportunistic, in order to comply with Xie Xiongfei's preferences, he specially made this clear soup sharp rice ball.
However, people who have such thoughts will never be able to understand Su Congshuang's heart for the will of the sea god in their lives. Su Congshuang's inspiration was inspired by Hong Guni to make his own style of cooking. At that Hong family's wedding banquet, Hong Guni's cuisine was really atmospheric, each dish was extremely delicate and high-grade, and the taste was impeccable, but no matter how you ate it, it was just a famous dish sold in a restaurant outside, and nothing belonged to Hong Guer's style. β¦
In contrast, although Hung's thin-shell dishes are slightly inferior, each dish can be eaten with the piety he poured into it, so in comparison, Dao feels that Hung's dishes are more worth savoring.
Based on this foundation, Su Congshuang continued to experiment for a day and a night, and created this dish, which is ordinary but not simple, and extremely attentive to the dish. It is no accident that this clear soup sharp rice pill can capture Xie Xiongfei's heart.
Seeing Xie Xiongfei's appearance full of praise for himself, Su Congshuang was also a little helpless, the selection of ingredients is important, but the chef's own skills also need to be exquisite, when hanging the soup, Su Congshuang also used a slice of bread to suck off the oil lying on the liquid surface. Although sliced bread cannot absorb the foam on the consommΓ©, it has a strong adsorption power for fat, which will also determine the quality of the consommΓ©.
Since then, the thirteen dishes have been presented, and after some comments, Xie Xiongfei also has a score in his heart, and he has also made a decision on who will win or lose, and then slowly got up and said: "Then I announce that the winner of this championship of Shenqian cuisine ......."
At this time, the thirteen contestants, regardless of their strength, were all inexplicably nervous, even those who knew that they would never win the dishes of Yao Xu, Su Congshuang and the Lin family sisters and others, they were also looking at Xie Xiongfei extremely nervously. As a chef, everyone has the recognition of their own cuisine, and this expectation is an affirmation of themselves, recognition of their own cuisine, and the belief that their cooking will be the best. With such self-confidence, I still hope for the outcome that will not happen at all.
But even so, the onlookers are also nervous, who is the flower, what is the ownership of the mackerel farm, this is the most important thing.
Some of the Su family members who were originally prejudiced against Su Congshuang were also completely united at this time, and they all sincerely hoped that Su Congshuang would win. In the end, when facing outsiders, he is always the same person surnamed Su.
The head of the Yao Xu family didn't expect to kill a dark horse in the end, and his face was a little ugly. Also as a chef, his experience is much higher than that of his son Yao Xu, the method of Sichuan hot pot was originally taught to Yao Xu, and he clearly saw that Yao Xu had a slight deviation in the proportion when mixing the sauce, although it was not a big problem, but if Xie Xiongfei wanted to study it carefully, I am afraid that it would be a little troublesome.
This god-front cooking duel is nominally to choose the guardian of the sea god, but in private everyone regards it as a status competition. Whoever is the heir of the family can win, which family can become famous, and which family can make money.
Tan Taoluo timidly looked in the direction where his father was, but he just happened to see a pair of stern scolding eyes, and he lowered his head in fright, angry and hateful in his heart, thinking that he would be able to win this game steadily, and he could become Xie Xiongfei's assistant, but now it seems that he is afraid that all of them are in the soup.
Xie Xiongfei held a plate in his left hand, and everyone exclaimed, "It's that red soup ivory mussel!" β
"Yao family! It was the Yao family who won."
The cheers sounded, and the solemnity on Yao Xu's face suddenly faded, and he couldn't stop the ecstasy in his heart, and before he could make a victory speech, something happened to him.
"That's not right! It's not the Yao family! And another such cry was heard.
Yao Xu's face sank, and when he looked at Xie Xiongfei, he found that his right hand was holding another plate.
"It's the Su family! The Su family's cuisine! β
The head of the Yao family saw that the mackerel farm in his hand flew away, and he was furious at the moment, stood up and asked, "Chef, what does this mean?" Why are there two dishes? ββ¦
Xie Xiongfei laughed and said, "Because these two dishes are delicious, they are the best dishes I have tasted among the younger generation so far, and it is really difficult for me to divide them into high and low." One is spicy to express the ultimate sweetness, and the other is to create pure sweetness with clear, which is really difficult, so in the end, my decision is to be a double champion. The guardian of the sea god, a man and a woman, complement each other, isn't it also good, haha! β
"What about the mackerel farm!" The head of the Yao family waved his sleeves and reprimanded, his voice obviously containing anger. In this game, the Yao family paid a full five million, but in the end, he only shared the profits of the mackerel farm with the Su family, which is how can he accept it.
Xie Xiongfei frowned slightly, and said, "Mackerel Farm? And this? Doesn't Kamimae cuisine only determine the ownership of the Poseidon Guardian? β
It seems that Xie Xiongfei is not aware of the current chaos in Qinglin Village, and the judgment of the double champion is not an acceptable judgment for many people.
Not only did the Yao family disagree, but the Su family also refused to back down, and reprimanded: "This mackerel farm is my Su family's thing, why do you want to share the benefits with the Yao family, we absolutely disagree!" β
Yao Xu saw that Xie Xiongfei actually compared Su Congshuang's cuisine with his red soup ivory mussels, and his heart was also angry, and when he heard the Su family's wild words, he was even more angry, and shouted: "Your Su family has ruined my reputation in Qinglin Village, and you dare to make a big statement here, don't you think that the mackerel fish farm can be redeemed, isn't it our credit!" What are you without us! β
Although Su Congshuang is a daughter, she is not afraid at all, and she retorted at the moment: "My Su family has asked you to help, if you don't have the intention of helping, you can return the share of the mackerel fish farm to us, and within three years, the Su family will definitely pay back the amount!" β
Su Congshuang knew that the Su family was at a disadvantage now, and it was not easy to make too many enemies, but she also did not give in to the ownership of the mackerel farm.
Xie Xiongfei was a little headache by this unprovoked quarrel, originally he thought it was a very simple trial among young people, but he didn't expect it to involve a mackerel farm, he shook his head helplessly at the moment, and said: "That's it, don't quarrel, since you have to fight for you and me, then give it another try!"
