Chapter 337: An Impenetrable Barrier
During the cooking process of egg drop soup, the egg wash must be poured down in a thin line, and it must be poured on the water surface so that the egg wash is evenly sprinkled into the entire water surface, so that it can be. When boiling the soup, the water should be slightly more so that after the egg liquid is poured, the overall water temperature will not drop too quickly, and the egg flowers will really be as soft and colorful as the flowers, and they will look very beautiful.
In the final analysis, the main thing to look at when making this soup is egg drop, as long as the egg drop is successful, the soup is naturally clear, and the two complement each other, and the soup cooked is the best in terms of appearance and taste.
In order to maintain the beautiful shape of the egg drop, the egg wash should not be stirred with something after it is put into the pot, because once it is stirred with a spoon during the cooking process, the egg drop will fall apart, and the scattered egg drop will become quite a failure if not rotten in appearance.
In the process of cooking egg drop soup, Tong Ran ordered a few drops of balsamic vinegar in it, the amount of balsamic vinegar is just right, as long as a little more sour taste is drunk, then this pot of soup will be defeated, a little bit of green vinegar can enhance the deliciousness of the whole soup, and at the same time, it will also make the egg drop in the egg drop soup become soft and tender, tender, but it also has a refreshing tenacity, can not eat sour, but feel extraordinarily appetizing, which is the genius of this soup.
In terms of handicrafts, especially in ancient handicrafts with a long history and inheritance and innovation, the simpler things seem to be more complicated and difficult to make, and the simple things are completely opposite to the complexity of this simplicity in the cooking process, and such complexity is not reflected in the steps. Rather, it is reflected in the real craftsmanship and real strength. Not all of them will do it as ordinary, as it is popular, and it is commonplace. For a craftsman, the biggest challenge to himself is also the biggest test of his own craftsmanship is how to turn ordinary, seemingly popular, and commonplace things into special, vibrant and individual, seemingly common but actually unique things, to be able to do this perfectly, which is definitely the greatest embodiment of a craftsman's excellent ability.
Such a flawless embodiment of Tong Ran was successfully displayed, and the commonplace, impossible for anyone who had not drunk, ordinary egg drop soup passed through his hands, but turned into an extremely tempting soup, even if it was placed on the table of the state banquet at the moment, it would not be inferior to other dishes.
This is a very light bowl of clear soup, and the soup is very clear. It is as clear as water, there is no oil star at all, and the floating egg flowers are like the flowers of the goddess. Delicate and moving, slowly scattered, floating in the clear soup very vividly. The soup is transparent, and the egg drops are light yellow. Originally, these two combinations should be monotonous to boring in appearance. But because he has become different in the technique of pouring egg liquid, the egg flowers are quite beautiful, one by one, floating in the clear soup, it is really like the petals are soft and delicate, and the light yellow egg flowers fall in the transparent soup, the picture is like the golden and elegant autumn chrysanthemums are floating in the blue water of the lake, and they are passing with the waves. Lovely view.
Not to mention the texture that almost melts, the egg blossoms are very tender. It's as if it melts in your mouth. Usually like this soft and tender taste as if to melt is the most difficult to master, too tender will make people feel raw, too old and feel firewood, or there is no place from the taste that can make people remember, too tender and smooth directly into it, and there is no unforgettable taste, but Tong Ran has done it properly in grasping the taste, this process has probably exhausted all his experience and experience, the egg drop he boiled is soft and tender, which retains the smooth and soft taste that can melt the tip of the human tongue. At the same time, it strengthens the presence brought by this taste, which seems to be soft and tender, but the toughness inside is very strong, and at the same time, the light egg flower slides over the tip of the tongue, giving people an unforgettable pleasant mouthfeel.
This clear soup only uses a little balsamic vinegar and a little salt to taste, the soup is very clear, the egg drop soup made is not egg drop and soup greasy together, the ingredients and the soup greasy together soup will give people a mess feeling both from the appearance and from the taste, especially the type of ingredients is monotonous, the clear soup made looks very simple and bland, needless to say the taste, just looking at it is very unappetizing, but Tong Ran's egg drop soup is different, not only the egg drop and the soup are separated, Both are independent individuals, and the taste of the soup is definitely not light, and the seemingly clear soup is delicious and mellow so that everyone who has tasted it can't help but sigh and appreciate.
In the process of the competition, the selection of topics is actually a key, although the King of Chef competition itself is based on the competition of craftsmanship, but there is also a difficulty coefficient difficulty index, just like the same degree of completion of the work, the higher the difficulty coefficient of the performance method chosen by the contestants, the more willing the judges are to score because of this exclamation, this is not partiality or unfair judgment, this is a knee-jerk reaction in people's hearts, people will have a good impression of the high difficulty that is usually considered "unfinishable", This kind of affection will prompt people to move their hearts closer to the work that they think is "unfinishable", and this kind of unconsciously close to people directly affects people's judgment, so that people can make emotional thoughts.
In particular, the industry insiders on the judges' bench, and the majority of those insiders on the judges' seats, know very well how difficult it is to make a very ordinary diet into a diet that looks extremely noble on the high seat, so when judging, it is inevitable that they will be emotional.
This kind of emotional behavior is difficult to change with rational thinking.
When Master Jiang saw that the judges had almost tasted it, he came to the stage and rang the golden gong.
When the judges were asked to score, the judges did not think about it and raised their cards one after another.
The last round of the finals of the Qin'an Division is also the last final of the finale of the Qin'an Division, and the two finished products that came out of this competition are actually the rich folk style crockpot soup simmered in an inconspicuous crockpot, and the other is the egg drop soup that all housewives will make even if it is an ordinary farmer and is often served to the home-cooked table.
This game is quite unexpected, both in terms of work and results. I always feel that there should not be such a light and inconspicuous thing in such a finale, even though Su Miao likes to go the opposite way the most, Tong Ran, who has always been sunny and snowy, has also begun to take the route of Miss Su's cards not according to the routine. This left many people dumbfounded.
However, the taste of these two soups is really good, and the taste is so delicious that it seems that it can't even match any delicacies from the mountains and seas, making it difficult to forget after just one bite. No matter which soup it is, after tasting a sip, there is a feeling of sudden brightness, very comfortable, very bright, although the soup in today's game is all relatively simple and simple soup. But there is no doubt that these two soups today are the most impressive and the most pleasant. From the point of view of being happy, the final round of the final was very successful.
It's just that the score of this last round of the game is very unsatisfactory, and the sense of powerlessness rises again, while rising. There is a mixed sense of anticipation in people's hearts. Although I felt a little powerless, I was faintly eager to look forward to it at the same time.
Crockpot simmering soup VS high-grade egg drop soup -
Seventy-four points against seventy-four points.
Su Miao and Tong Ran are tied again!
"It's a tie again!" On the small building on the side, Liang Jin supported his cheek with one hand, and said boredly, "Is it that when I have to go back to Liangdu, that girl still can't win, Weiwei also said that the girl's craftsmanship is so powerful, how can you not even beat the kid who was won by Weiwei last time?!" ”
"The child of the Tong family has also benefited a lot in the past two years." Hui Xiang put down the spoon and said gently. glanced out the window at the stage that fell under the dark sky, "He didn't play his full strength back then. ”
Liang Jin glanced at her. Somewhat bored, he asked: "Now that the final between the two of them has been tied, what should I do next?" Do both of them enter Liangdu? ”
"There is no such thing as a tie in the regional competition, the winner must be decided, it's time for overtime, it's just ......" Hui Xiang looked at the table downstairs and said quietly.
"Just what?" Liang Jin asked curiously.
"I'm afraid that girl's hand won't hold it." Hui Xiang said lightly, got up, and left silently.
Liang Jin's slender eyebrows raised slightly, glanced out the window, stood up, and followed back to Huixiang.
At this time, Su Miao didn't know how the game should end after the two sides were tied, when the scores were announced, even the judges were stunned, and then the judges fell into discussion, and there was no discussion of why it happened, and when it was not discussed, because it was late, Lord Jiang announced the end of today's game, and the follow-up matters would be announced after the discussion and study of the review meeting, and someone would be sent to inform Su Miao and Tong Ran at that time.
Su Miao and Tong Ran can't help it, it's really late, how to break the situation of a draw between the two sides, this is a problem that the judges need to worry about, they just don't relax psychologically, so as the people in the audience area dispersed one after another, Su Miao and Tong Ran also left with their own people, this is the first time, Tong Ran did not take the initiative to talk to Su Miao after stepping down, the two just looked at each other quietly from a distance, and then turned around and left.
In the quiet night, the leafy branches gently comb the heavens, the clear night sky is lit up with blue crystal star lanterns, and the sleeping pool water reflects the blurred night sky, turning into a fantasy dream.
Su Miao stood in front of the tranquil pond with her hands on her chest, the silvery white moon casting a cool shadow in the mirror-like pool water, and with the blue-white moonlight, she saw her own vague reflection in the mirror-like pool water. The reflection was a little dark, a little dark, but she could clearly see her own pair of black eyes on the blurred reflection.
She stared at the blurred shadow cast by her in the cold water.
It's not that she doesn't realize that she has reached a bottleneck now, she has begun to feel that she is bound by something intangible, it's not that she doesn't want to untie the shackles on her body, she's trying her best, racking her brains, she feels that she has used a lot of methods, but this layer of bondage is like an unbreakable barrier, more and more clearly in front of her eyes, no matter what method she uses, she can't break this thick barrier.
She doesn't think that her current defeat is a problem of ability, she doesn't think it's a problem of her mentality, in fact, she thinks that everything is in her best state, neither increasing nor decreasing, not slowing down, not blindly moving forward, not cowering backwards, she has always been in a calm and stable state. But why, even though she had been in the most stable state, she still felt as if she had touched an invisible hard barrier that she couldn't break through no matter how hard she tried.
She frowned.
A cool summer breeze blew, and she looked down at her bandaged hand.
At this moment, a warm wet towel was pressed against her cheek from behind, and without warning, she was startled, and when she looked over, the person holding the hot towel turned out to be aftertaste.
"Put a compress on your ankle, don't get swollen." He said.
Su Miao flattened her mouth, said "scared me", took the hot towel and sat on the bench by the pond, took off her shoes and socks, and applied the hot towel to her reddened ankles.
She accidentally twisted her foot in the previous explosion, although she was not injured, but her foot was at the point where she was about to sprain and not sprain, and standing for too long would still have a certain impact on her ankle.
Aftertaste sat silently at the other end of the bench, quietly looking at her slightly red and swollen ankles, and after a while, asked softly:
"What are you thinking?"
"Huh?" Su Miao was stunned.
"What were you thinking when you were standing here just now?"
Su Miao's eyes rolled, she really didn't figure out what she was thinking just now, paused, and replied:
"Didn't think about anything."
Aftertaste was silent for a while, and then spoke again, but what he said: "You...... Isn't it because I brought you this state after being with me? ”
Su Miao was slightly stunned, tilted her head and thought for a long time, clapped her hand, and laughed: "Maybe it's really like that!" ”
Aftertaste looked straight at her and didn't smile.
Such an expression made Su Miao burst out laughing, paused, raised her head, quietly looked at the starry sky above her head, looked at it for a while, and suddenly felt an indescribable depression in her heart, she let out a long breath, glanced at the aftertaste of the same looking up at the sky with the tips of her eyes, and suddenly poked him with her elbow and said with a smile:
"Xiaoweiwei, it's so boring, let me tease you for a while, right?"
Aftertaste glanced at her, still not smiling, and replied lightly:
"Okay." (To be continued.) )
