Chapter 152: Wife Cake
This time, Lin Miao shook the handles on both sides with his hands, and at the same time moved the wings of his nose, carefully discerning the difference in the fragrance in the air.
Soon, the fragrance emanated from the square tin again.
"Well, it smells so good!" In the audience, some people already smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but admire.
And Lin Miao knew that the heat was not enough at this time, so she accelerated the action of shaking the handle, so that the iron plate in the square iron box could rotate more quickly. In this way, it can not only ensure that the wife cake in the iron plate is heated evenly, but also reduce the time it is in contact with the charcoal fire, so as not to burn.
As time passed, the warm scent became stronger and stronger, and the audience began to get agitated.
"Oops, this scent is stronger than the last time. It smells so good! ”
"Last time, I didn't want to swallow my saliva, but this time, my saliva couldn't help but flow out, oops, sucking saliva is dripping."
"Miss Lin, is this wife's cake ready? The gluttonous worms in our stomachs are about to be hooked out. A big man simply stood up and shouted at Lin Miao.
Lin Miao's attention was all in the square iron box in front of him, and he didn't notice the words of the big man at all.
Guan Yan hurriedly stepped forward to stop "What are you doing?" Didn't you see Lin Miao busy roasting? What are your names? Besides, even if it is baked, it will not be your share, and the judges will have to taste this wife cake first. ”
In a word, the big man was extremely disappointed, he sat down in his seat stupidly, but his eyes were still reluctantly staring at Lin Miao's movements, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and he kept swallowing saliva.
Suddenly, Lin Miao stopped what he was doing, opened the square iron box, and then took out the iron plate, separated, and put the steaming wife cake on the plate on the side.
The freshly baked wife cake has a bright yellow surface, steaming hot, and full of aroma, which is stronger than the taste in the iron plate just now.
Everyone in the audience couldn't help but stand up and stretched their necks to watch, wanting to see what the wife's cake looked like.
Ling Rui also looked curiously in the direction of Lin Miao, as soon as the wife cake came out, the fragrance spread out, Ling Rui was shocked: This tastes so fragrant! And it's so special, I've never smelled such warmth and happiness before.
Lin Miao took a closer look at the appearance of the wife's cake on the plate, and saw that it was golden all over, fluffy and full, and the three openings cut by the knife were steaming hot, and the filling was also moist and full, which made people can't help but want to taste it.
"Lin Miao, is this wife's cake ready?" Guan Yan couldn't resist the stimulation of the fragrance, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked. While asking, he carefully looked at the wife cake made by Lin Miao.
Well! Yes, the color and aroma of the dishes are exquisite, it already accounts for two things, and this taste must be judged by the judges.
Lin Miao nodded weakly, "It's done." ”
She wanted to try it for herself first, and if it didn't taste good, she could try it again.
But when I looked at the people in the audience and the judges, I swallowed back the words that just came to my mouth.
"Haha! Now that the two wives have finished their cakes, let's ask the judges to start tasting. Guan Yan said loudly.
Ling Rui and Lin Miao's wife cakes were brought to Meng Huaiqiu and the other three judges respectively. These three judges are all top culinary talents in the dark cuisine industry, namely Li Ji, Liu Panzhou, and Zhou Haoyi.
These three are recognized as iron-faced and selfless judges in the dark cuisine world, not only each chef is superb, but also can be objective and fair in evaluating other people's dishes, and the prestige in the entire dark cuisine industry is very high, whenever there is a cooking competition, or a mutual challenge between the doors, one or several of them will be invited to be a judge.
Lin Miao stretched out her head to look at Ling Rui's wife's cake, and couldn't help but have a black line on her face. Isn't this Ma Yuan? Why is it called a wife cake? Aren't all loaves flat?
Unexpectedly, Li Ji first asked this question, "Ling Rui, you said that the dish you made is called a wife cake." But why is it not flat like a cake, but round like a ball or a rice ball? ”
"That's right, this should be called Ma Yuan, and what I make is called a wife cake." Lin Miao couldn't help but echo in agreement.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present frowned.
Lan Yue hurriedly reminded, "Lin Miao, the judges are asking Ling Rui, you must not be rude." ”
Lin Miao also realized that she had lost her words, and she hurriedly looked back at Ling Rui, afraid that he would be unhappy for a while and have any opinions about her.
At that time, people were kind enough to help themselves get the ingredients, and they poured it themselves, and now they are here to dismantle other people's tables.
Unexpectedly, Ling Rui just smiled, "Well, you're right, this is more appropriate to call Ma Yuan." It's called Ma Yuan. ”
As soon as he said this, the audience was petrified.
Hey, please be professional, it's a game now, Lin Miao is your opponent. She said that it should be called Ma Yuan, you should be called Ma Yuan, what about the wife cake that she said?
Lin Miao was obviously also shocked by Ling Rui's reaction, and she said embarrassedly, "I said nonsense, don't you care." ”
Li Ji was also stunned, and confirmed with Ling Rui again, "Do you really want to temporarily change the name of this dish of yours to Ma Yuan?" In that case, what you make will be different from the topic you set before. In other words, what you are doing is not right in the text. ”
Ling Rui nodded and said, "Well, I've decided, change its name to Ma Yuan." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Meng Huaiqiu was the first to stand up against "nonsense!" The topics you set yourself have already been done at this time, so why do you need to change your name temporarily? Are you blind when we are all here? Fool us? You're deliberately putting water on this little girl, right? ”
Meng Huaiqiu asked a few questions in a row, and Ling Rui was stunned.
Of course, Ling Rui didn't dare to bump into him in front of Meng Huaiqiu, so he had to respectfully salute and replied, "Elder Meng, it's not that Ling Rui wants to release water for Miss Lin, it's just that I think this name fits the god shape of this dish very well, so I borrowed it." ”
Lan Yuejiao stood up at this time and said to the three judges and Meng Huaiqiu, "Everyone, I think that the name Ma Yuan is very suitable for what Ling Rui made. However, it would be biased to veto what he did altogether just because he changed his name at the moment. Today's matter, I'll just talk about it, the name is not used as the standard for this round of judging, only taste, and the winner is determined by taste. ”
The reason why Lan Yuejiao said this was because she had already smelled the smell of the wife cake made by Lin Miao just now, and her confidence in her craftsmanship was greatly increased. In addition, if she grasped the name of Ling Rui's dish at this time, she was afraid that it would be difficult to convince the public, so she pushed the boat down the river and became a good person in the middle.
These words were exactly what Meng Huaiqiu wanted, he nodded, and hurriedly echoed, "What the sect leader said is that the temporary name change is not enough to test, and this round is only decided by the taste of the two." ”
Lin Miao was annoyed that he had lost his words for a while, and when he heard this, he naturally agreed, "Yes, yes, yes, only the taste determines the winner." ”
Meng Huaiqiu and Lan Yuejiao both glanced at Lin Miao coldly at the same time, and their expressions seemed to be saying: Say less.
Lin Miao closed her mouth in amusement.
The other three judges had no objections, Li Jixian picked up Ling Rui's hemp balls with chopsticks, looked carefully, and saw that on the orange skin, the sesame seeds were also fried to golden brown, and the unique fragrance of flour came to the nose, making people salivate.
Li Ji took a bite, and the round and soft taste made Li Ji can't help but nod and praise, "Hmm!" It's fragrant, the surface is crispy, the inside is soft and glutinous, and the sesame seeds on the surface are crispy but not burnt, and the heat is really well grasped. ”
Liu Panzhou and Zhou Haoyi also picked up a hemp ball and tasted it, both nodding and praising it.
Liu Panzhou said, "The most difficult part of this hemp round is the heat, if the heat is a little weak, the inside is not ripe, and if the heat is a little strong, the sesame seeds on the skin are charred and black." Ling Rui was so young that he was able to control the heat to such an extent, which was really terrifying. ”
Meng Huaiqiu also took a bite, smiled noncommittally, and did not comment too much.
Then, everyone's eyes turned to Lin Miao's wife cake.
Li Ji first looked at the cake, only to see that its surface was glowing with moist light, the golden skin was steaming, and the filling inside could be faintly seen at the knife edge in the middle, and it was about to come out.
"What a chic wife cake, this fragrance is really special, I have eaten baked cakes before, why have I never smelled such a taste?" Liu Panzhou seemed to be talking to himself, and it was as if he was asking the two judges next to him.
Zhou Hao nodded, and then asked Lin Miao, "Lin Miao, why does your cake have such a peculiar fragrance?" ”
Lin Miao hurriedly smiled and explained, "Because I bake it in a closed environment, the dough cake is not in direct contact with the charcoal fire, but is overheated through the guò iron plate, so its moisture will not be dissipated quickly." In addition, my wife's cake has winter melon and glutinous rice flour as fillings, which ensures sufficient moisture. When you have enough moisture, the natural flavor will be lively. ”
"I see." Li Ji nodded, then took a piece and put it in his mouth, suddenly, his eyes widened, and he looked at Lin Miao in disbelief, "This taste!" It's so delicious. I never knew scones could have such a fluffy and fluffy texture. You must tell me how exactly you did it. ”
Liu Panzhou also tasted it at this time, and he was stunned, "Different from steamed buns, there is more than enough porcelain, and it is different from baked cakes, which are fluffy and moderate." It's really evocative, and I can't get enough of it. ”
Zhou Haoyi also nodded again and again, and his evaluation was simple: "Well, it's delicious, it's delicious!" ”
Meng Huaiqiu listened to the three judges praise again and again, although he was not convinced, he couldn't help but pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.
At the beginning of import, the soft taste of porcelain, like the mountain wind blowing through the wilderness, and then chew carefully, the fluffy and moist taste, such as thousands of flowers blooming, mountain springs moisten wood, make people feel refreshed. Meng Huaiqiu was completely stunned, how could this be possible, how could she be a little girl and make such a dazzling delicacy?
However, I obviously watched her do it with my own eyes, and I can't admit it if I want to.
Of course, Lan Yuejiao also saw Meng Huaiqiu's strange expression, she smiled at the corner of her mouth, and deliberately asked, "Old Meng, how does it taste?" ”
"Uh-huh." Meng Huaiqiu nodded awkwardly, although he didn't want to admit it, but the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't let him say it badly, otherwise, everyone would question his sense of taste. R1152
