Chapter 183: Losing Streak or Reversal?

"Chanchan, why do you want to put the plate on the fire and roast it first?" Lin Yan, who was sitting in the VIP seat, ate the preserved fruit used for tooth sacrifice, stretched her neck to look at the stage, and asked curiously.

Su Chan shook her head while swallowing melon seeds, they couldn't eat the delicious food made on the stage, they had to find something to chew, who knew that the more they chewed, the hungrier they became.

"Baking the porcelain plate with a stove fire to maintain a uniform heat on the porcelain plate, which can keep the meat slices fresh and tender, and will not affect the taste of the meat due to the sudden shrinkage of the meat due to one hot and one cold, which can lock the fat in the meat slices, and it is easier for the aroma of the beef to come out." Tong Ran on the side shook the folding fan carelessly, his narrow willow eyes narrowed slightly, looked straight at Su Miao on the stage, and replied in a soft tone.

Lin Yan didn't expect him to answer, she was stunned, and then nodded in a sudden understanding.

"This dish is braised fish head stewed tofu!" On the judges' bench, the guy put a black background painted gold rich peony purple casserole in the center of the round table, lifted the lid, and the hot aroma rose, permeating the surroundings, the casserole has just left the fire, and the inside of the fresh soup is still tumbling, and the delicious taste of the nose is coming to the face, which makes people feel appetizing!

The judges took it personally, and each scooped a small bowl of braised fish head stewed tofu, and ate a bite of the soup with fresh and fragrant vegetables, the soup is fragrant and thick, the tofu is delicate and tender, the fish is fatty and glutinous, crispy but not rotten, not greasy.

The tofu fish head is fried first and then cooked, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, smooth and juicy. A simple and honest dish, bright in color, simple and pure. The aroma of the soup seems to evoke the simplest but most unforgettable happy memories of childhood for people who grew up near the water. Belonging to the freshwater fish, the fresh and sweet smell of the natural fishy smell of the mud and sand falls on the tip of the tongue, which makes people can't help but think of the endless waves in the south of the Yangtze River. Because the simple and beautiful fisherwoman smiled in the mist and rain, like a black and white ink painting, the charm is deep, beautiful and charming.

"This fish head stew is softer than the fish head I've ever tasted before, and there is a feeling of simplicity in it." Sun Juren said with a smile on his face.

"I suddenly remembered the smell of fish soup stewed with tofu in the evening when I was running bare-bottomed on the river, and fishermen on the boat!" Wu Zhizhou was a little embarrassed when he remembered the naughty things when he was a child, but he smiled very nostalgically.

"Stewed tofu with fish head is not a rare dish, everyone has eaten it. But this dish is stewed, and the taste is so fresh! Mother Jiang scooped up another spoonful and took a bite, and wiped her lips with a handkerchief.

"His sauce is a mixture of two sauces. It is not only salty but not heavy, but also retains the umami of the fish head and the tofu itself. The sauce is just right. Just right! Xia Chang squinted his small eyes and nodded in praise.

After eating half a cup of braised fish head stewed tofu, the judges fell silent one after another, and began to think about how to score in their hearts.

"This one is a pan-fried beef roll with fresh vegetables!" On the other side, the guy who served the dishes for Su Miao's group stepped forward with a large tray and placed the beef rolls divided into eight small plates in front of the judges one by one.

In contrast to the braised fish head stewed with tofu, the portion is small and the dish is finely plated, especially with the pale yellow sauce that tops it at the end. Not just on the beef rolls, but also on the empty space of the porcelain plate. It seems that the sauce is poured on it casually, and it looks like it is just a series of intermittent slender lines, but if you look closely at the overall appearance, you will find that those lines are not casually poured on the plate, but like an abstract line painting, which sets off the overall shape of the dish more ornate and colorful.

The soft and elastic beef roll seems to be casual, but in fact it is solemnly placed in the square porcelain plate, exuding a very light and graceful but also very warm meat aroma, and the light but deep mellow aroma quietly penetrates into the nose, which can make people's hearts suddenly move!

"Our people here in Qin'an Province are not very good at making beef, and the little girl grew up here, and it is already amazing to be able to make beef." He Yuanwai said with a smile, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, but he only felt that the nerves in his whole body trembled, his eyes opened suddenly, and he opened his boss!

When he put down his chopsticks, everyone else also stretched out their chopsticks and grabbed a piece of beef roll, and the amazing thing is that after this roll is rolled into a roll, it does not seem to use any mysterious tricks on the surface, but no matter what angle it is clamped, this roll will not fall apart. It is obviously a thin and paper-thin piece of meat, but it has a strong toughness, even if the clamping is accidentally used too much, the meat slice will not be poked, which shows that the thickness of the meat slice is cut just right, which can ensure that the heating is uniform and will not affect the appearance.

Everyone looked at it carefully for a while with a little surprise, and then slowly put it in their mouths, and when the mouth closed, the palate and the tip of the tongue naturally pressed lightly on the beef roll, and the silky and tempting gravy came out from between the texture of the beef, quickly spread and spread between the lips and teeth, and spread on the taste buds, and the warm and mellow taste made people have an indescribable comfort.

Select crispy and refreshing vegetables, evenly wrap a layer of thinly sliced beef, fry them in clear oil, and then squeeze the fat out of the beef through the mouth, so that you can fully feel the unpolished clear and original taste of fresh vegetables. The unique pure and clear aroma of natural fresh green vegetables is mixed with the unique graceful and tender taste of the finely carved beef tenderloin, which makes people can't help but have an illusion, in the beautiful and quiet garden of Shuimu Qinghua, the luxurious golden silk nanmu tables and chairs are placed on the boundless lawn, and the round table is also covered with a noble double-sided embroidered silk tablecloth, and the sunny noon, the exquisite workmanship and exquisite gorgeous and attractive dishes seem to make the people who eat it can't help but become noble, elegant posture and dignified manners, Sven sits in the beautiful and luxurious garden, like a brightly colored oil painting, elegant and proud.

After a few chopsticks were clamped, when they stretched out again, they found that the plate was empty, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned, looking down at the empty plate when they crossed a touch of regret in their eyes, all in their hearts secretly said that the little girl on the platform was "too stingy".

Xia Changren was more casual, and simply dipped the tip of his chopsticks in the sauce on the blank floor of the porcelain plate and put it in his mouth.

None of the judges spoke, and the scene was silent, until it was about to start scoring, Wu Zhizhou suddenly let out a long breath, smacked his lips, and said:

"I used to eat beef made by Chef Liangdu once in Liangdu, and I thought the meat tasted so good, but I didn't expect that our Qin'an Province would also have a chef who could make beef, and this taste was not as good as the chef in Liangdu Restaurant!"

Before he finished speaking, the ceremonial officer announced the start of the scoring.

The judges fiddled with the scoring cards in their hands.

The braised fish head stewed tofu with simple and fresh selling points, Wu Zhizhou, He Yuanwai, and Jiang's mother all gave three points, and Xia Chang, Sun Juren, Li Shopkeeper, Mrs. Chen, and Ge Yuanwai all raised two points, after all, although this dish tastes good, it can also recall some warm memories, but on the whole, this dish is a bit ordinary.

Wan Guoan scored a total of 19 points in the fourth game, and the two consecutive victories made Wan Guoan regain his confidence, and he turned back to the invincible arrogance of a famous chef.

"Next, please judge the score of the pan-fried fresh vegetable beef roll, starting with Lord Wu, please!" The ceremonial officer made a gesture of please, motioning for the judges to start scoring the second course.

This is the most crucial score, and if you win, the game will be reversed; If there is a draw, Su Miao still has a glimmer of possibility; If she loses in a row, she can immediately step down and go home.

Su Miao looked at the judges' seat intently.

Almost without hesitation, the eight judges did not think about it anymore, starting from Wu Zhizhou to the shopkeeper Li raised the cards one by one very smoothly, one raised the next one immediately, and there was almost no pause in the middle, which shows that everyone immediately had a conclusion in their hearts after tasting this dish, and it is a conclusion that does not need to be changed at all.

Wu Zhizhou, He Yuanwai, Xia Chang, Sun Juren, Mrs. Chen, Jiang's mother, and Ge Yuanwai all raised three points, and only Shopkeeper Li raised two points.

To be honest, Shopkeeper Li doesn't like to see women come to participate in such a competition, he thinks it's ridiculous and unorthodox, but the rules are set by the county lord of Jiayang, and he is not very good at showing his prejudices, so he gave Su Miao three points in the first game, and then he repeatedly watched Su Miao's dishes unpleasant, and he didn't know whether it was unpleasant to the dishes or the gender of the cooks, in short, he didn't feel guilty about giving Su Miao a low score, because he felt that her dishes were worth such points. But now, when everyone scored three points for the pan-fried beef rolls, he was the only one to score two points, and for the first time, he was a little weak-hearted, and although he turned the sign around slightly, he finally held on and only gave two points.

As if she understood what he was thinking, Mother Jiang glanced at him disdainfully, snorted from her nose, and gave a thumbs up to Su Miao on the stage.

Su Miao saw it, bent her eyebrows, and smiled.

made Mrs. Chen laugh and say, "This little girl is so cute!" ”

Nineteen points to twenty-three points, after Wan Guoan won two games in a row, Su Miao finally achieved a reversal with a dish with a niche but atmospheric taste with fresh and gorgeous ingredients as a special ingredient, and won the second victory.

At this time, Wan Guoan and Su Miao were both two wins and two defeats, the preliminary round was nearing the end, and the victory and defeat were also in the finale.

The dramatic reversal made the spectators under the stage boil again, and the teahouse diagonally opposite the stage, the table was crowded with people, and it was more popular than at the beginning of the game.

Su Miao glanced at Aftertaste, who was looking at her, he held her fingertips and smiled lightly.

The auspicious gong sounded again.

Game 5 starts! (To be continued......)
