Chapter 68: The Decisive Battle at the Top of the Forbidden City 2
"Dear audience and friends, today is in the reopening ceremony of Dejuquan. Deju Catering not only brought traditional programs, but also brought everyone a gluttonous feast competition. And the competition of this feast ......"
The host of Beijing Satellite TV was holding the microphone at this time, standing not far from the console of Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong, and was explaining. The subtlety of the words, the excitement of the expressions and tones, simply stood in front of the console and just stared at each other, Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong, who were standing in front of the console and just staring at each other, and did not even raise their hands, praised Ximen Blowing Snow and Ye Gucheng, who were about to fight at the top of the Forbidden City.
Li Gengxin stood on the stage and stared at Hong Honghong in front of him, listening to the host's explanation at this time. Extremely helpless, he turned his head to the host with a helpless expression and said, "I said this eldest sister, can you not be so exaggerated." Are we all at the top of the Forbidden City? ”
The host turned his head and grinned at Li Geng, and asked loudly, "What?" Don't you think you're fighting for the top of the Forbidden City? In my opinion, the competition to challenge the King of Chefs is a battle against the top of the Forbidden City! Don't let us down, let's get started as soon as possible! ”
Hong Honghong turned her head at this time and looked at the countless pairs of eyes below the stage, quietly looking at herself. His eyes jumped and glanced at the old man and the girl at the door, and then he threw his eyes to the huge flower wall outside Dejuquan. After a long time, Hong Honghong's gaze withdrew, and she turned her head to Li Gengxin and said, "Li Gengxin, I didn't expect you to prepare the ingredients in such detail this time." ”
Li Gengxin smiled and said softly: "Hong Honghong, I've been waiting for you for a long time, just waiting for me to compete with you on seafood risotto today!" If you still feel like you're missing something. Speak! I'll have the kitchen guy prepare it for you right away! Today is different from last ......"
"Oh? Why? Hong Honghong asked curiously.
Li Gengxin smiled slightly, lowered his voice and said, "Today is the day of the reopening of Deju. Naturally, the ingredients are complete! ”
Hong Honghong snorted. He looked down at the ingredients he had prepared in front of him.
The most conspicuous of these ingredients should be the plump grains of rice.
There are several kinds of seafood on the side of the rice. Among them, Jiwei shrimp, cuttlefish, mussels and other ingredients look fresh, and the color looks as if they have just been caught from the sea.
Mussel sea red is less common. Or ordinary people don't know what seafood is when they see it, and most of them are classified as scallops and clams.
But most of the people here today are foodies among foodies, fighters among foodies, so they are all aware of this black shell, delicious and nutritious precious seafood.
The delicacy of eggs in the sea, there are really few people in Deju who don't know each other at this moment.
Hong Honghong didn't move the cuttlefish on the table, and she didn't look at the Jiwei shrimp that was still alive. The hand stroked the sea red mussel a few times. The sea red mussels, which had been slightly open, closed instantly, and Hong Honghong nodded with satisfaction.
The dragon fish, chicken thighs and sausages were placed together, and Hong Honghong didn't move much about these ingredients.
Looking up at the vegetables, I saw that green beans, green bell peppers, red bell peppers, yellow bell peppers, onions, carrots, and shallots were arranged in an orderly manner. In the lime pile next to it are saffron and bay leaves.
Hong Honghong nodded with satisfaction, then reached out and grabbed the white wine bottle placed in the upper left corner of all the ingredients, twisting the bottle and not knowing what to look for......
Li Gengxin looked at Hong Honghong's movements and smiled slightly.
"What the hell is that girl looking at with a bottle of wine?" Yang Mingdian stood in the audience, frowned and turned his head to ask his daughter.
Yang Hongli stood beside Yang Haotian, frowning and muttering softly to his father, "Maybe...... Maybe you're looking at the year, right? ”
"Hehehe......" Yang Haotian smiled helplessly, and said to Yang Hongli and Yang Mingdian: "I think that girl is thinking about whether the white wine you prepared can achieve the effect she wants, right?" ”
Yang Hongli frowned, turned his head and retorted at Yang Haotian: "The matter of white wine is still specially approved by me. The bottle of white wine she had in her hand wasn't a bargain! The best white wine in the kitchen cooking class! ”
Luo Badao didn't know when he came over, and retorted in a low voice: "Yes! Mademoiselle, you yourself say that it is the best white wine at the culinary level. I think the girl must have proved it at this point, and the more she tried to prove it, the less certain she became. After all, being a good cook. Compromise and attention are never the same thing. ”
Burst......
Yang Hongli was slightly stunned, and saw that at this time, Hong Honghong poked the corkscrew in his hand into the oak cork of white wine. Biting lightly, the jade hand gently began to turn the corkscrew. ”
Hong Honghong's forehead was crooked, and her hair was tied into a ponytail. But it still swayed as she wrung the wine.
Li Gengxin was facing Hong Honghong. Look at the scene in front of you. sighed slightly in his heart and said silently: Okay, it's not the speed of the wind, it's the calmness of relying on Marco.
Hong Honghong's calmness at this moment. Let everyone in the audience can't help but have a kind of spiritual enjoyment of sitting and watching the branches under the eaves and sitting on the ground to drink tea.
Li Gengxin was moved by the scene in front of him. Subconsciously picked up the bottle of white wine under his hand.
With a pop, Li Gengxin also began to twist the oak cork.
Hong Honghong looked up at Li Gengxin opposite her. Frowning slightly. He raised his hand and put the cork between the corkscrews under the tip of his delicate nose and sniffed it.
Li Gengxin smiled slightly, and casually put the sumo cork in his hand directly and gently placed it between the porcelain plates.
At this time, Hong Honghong picked up the mussel sea red that had been soaked in the basin for a long time, and began to use a brush to brush off the impurities between the shells. At this time, Li Gengxin used a wooden brush to rub the layer of fine sand in the mussel sea infrared.
I can't say who is before and who is behind. Not to mention who put a basin of clean water in the induction cooker and boiled it first.
The audience saw that Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong were carrying white wine at the same time and began to pour it into the pot.
Almost the same height, continue at the same angle. The slightly fruity green pulp in the white wine bottle flowed down like mercury. The symmetrical beauty of the golden boy and jade girl suffocated everyone watching the battle at this time.
Li Gengxin took the cleaned mussels in his hand and poured them into the basin. Hong Honghong gently tossed the mussel on the plate into the boiling water. The two of them looked up at each other at the same time, and then looked down at the changes in the pot.
"Chopsticks?" Yang Hongli muttered in surprise.
Originally. Li Gengxin picked up the chopsticks, and Hong Honghong also picked up the chopsticks at the same time. The two of them began to put sea red in the pot.
The reason is naturally that both of them are choosing which sea red are alive. Which ones are already dead.
A moment later, the two of them fished Haihong out of the pot at the same time. After soaking in cold water. The two of them lowered their heads at the same time and began to pick out the sea red meat with chopsticks.
At the same time, the two of them kept a few of the most beautiful sea red shells in comparison, and threw away most of them. Then pick up a white towel and wipe your hands. casually grabbed the fish of the dragon.
The knife flashed, and there were a few muffled sounds.
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong let out a soft sigh at the same time. The two of them looked at each other's same steps as themselves, and frowned slightly at the same time.
If you say, just now when the wine was opened, it was a coincidence that the mussels were washed and boiled in sea red. So there are so many ingredients in front of you that you can cook. The two of them grabbed the dragon fish again and dealt with it at the same time.
Same steps, same actions. This has to make Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong a little helpless with each other.
Is it true that the thoughts are as synchronized as the other party shows?
"Red carp! So is Hong Honghong plagiarizing Li Gengxin? Yang Hongtian couldn't stand it anymore. turned his head and asked Yang Hongli beside him.
Yang Hongli sighed with a strange expression on his face. I think of the scene as if it was yesterday. Thinking that when Hong Honghong came to challenge Li Gengxin, Li Gengxin couldn't even make a seafood risotto. At this time, how can I say that Hong Honghong plagiarized Li Gengxin?
Say something. Yang Hongli seems to be able to say only one sentence: Li is updated, and he has improved......
……………………………………………………
For the competition on the stage at this moment, some people see the beauty, some people see the symmetry of yin and yang between the golden boy and the jade girl, and some people see the gorgeousness of the duel between the masters, while some people, such as Yang Haotian, are a little unbearable!
"Red carp! So is Hong Honghong plagiarizing Li Gengxin? Yang Haotian asked Yang Hongli a little helplessly.
Yang Hongli turned his head to look at Yang Haotian, knowing that he didn't know about some things. Then he said indifferently: "Li Gengxing, ...... improved"
"Huh? Did Lee update his progress? Yang Haotian was a little confused by everything in front of him. I can't figure out why Yang Hongli would say that Li Gengxin has made progress again. Then his eyes were fixed on Li Gengxin and he became a little dazed.
Flashing blade light swung between them. A fish with tender and white flesh is deboned and cleaned at the same time, the meat is cut into strips, and then the blade is passed, and the strips of meat are cut into diced meat.
The meat is white. Resilient.
After the skillful knife handling, many people in the audience even remembered the process of raw food in Japanese cuisine.
In addition to the association, Li Gengxin and Yang Hongli completed the division of fish meat at the same time. Both sides wiped the knives in their hands with snow-white towels at the same time.
Lee updated. You are shameless......" Hong Honghong suddenly whispered at Li Gengxin.
Li Gengxin looked up at Hong Honghong, and shook his head helplessly. I wanted to say, "I haven't said you learn from me." You call me shameless? But the words didn't come out, because Li Gengxin looked at Hong Honghong's expression and the light in his eyes. I always feel that this Hong Honghong's momentum makes my heart can't help rippling.
A pool of spring water rippled with waves from the angry expression of the little woman Hong Honghong......
Hong Honghong didn't speak, lowered her head and grabbed a long carrot and glared at Li Gengxin fiercely. The hand holding the carrot suddenly exerted force and waved the other hand.
A long carrot was broken off by Hong Honghong!
Li Gengxin watched Hong Honghong's movements, and a trace of white sweat appeared on his forehead. And Hong Honghong glared at Li Gengxin provocatively at this time, as if asking Li Gengxin: "Are you harder than this carrot?" ”
The gaze collapses at the touch of a button......
Li Gengxin hurriedly lowered his head, also picked up the carrot in his hand, and began to use a knife to make fun of the carrot skin. Then start dicing, followed by onion dicing.
Hong Honghong lowered her head and began to cut the carrots, and when the carrots in her hand were cut, she looked up at Li Gengxin again.
Seeing that Li Gengxin was tearfully figuring the ingredients in his hand at this time, Hong Honghong felt a lot more relieved. Then I grabbed the onion and began to cut it.
"......Forehead" Not long after, Hong Honghong's eyes were also filled with tears, and she suddenly understood something in her heart, and looked up at Li Gengxin opposite. I saw him wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes while pouring olive oil into the pot.
"It turned out that I was choked on onions! I thought he was scared of me! Hong Honghong wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and began to pour them into the pot.
Sneer...... Zizizi......
After the onions were fried in the pot by Hong Honghong and Li Gengxin respectively, the two poured the carrots into the pot and stir-fried at the same time. Then the bones of the dragon fish are just put into the pot.
Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong's movements were one after the other. Although Li Gengxin's movements were one step faster, Hong Honghong's movements were not slow, and the production of ingredients required a heating process, so gradually Li Gengxin was chased by Hong Honghong and hit the horse's tail.
After the surface of the bones of the dragon fish turned milky white, Li Gengxin picked up the bucket of mineral water that had been prepared a long time ago and began to pour water into the pot.
Hong Honghong was also pouring water into the pot with a mineral water bucket at this time. Two pots of soup were boiled on the fire by the two at the same time.
Li Gengxin picked up the white pepper powder and began to put it into the pot, and Hong Honghong also picked up the white pepper powder in his hand at this time. However, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Li Gengxin holding the pepper, so he estimated that he put the pepper aside, then pinched two bay leaves and carefully threw them into the pot.
And when Li Gengxin picked up the bay leaf. Subconsciously looked up and found that Hong Honghong had already thrown the leaves into the pot. Li Gengxin, who was slightly embarrassed, scratched his forehead with his fingers, and still put the bay leaves into the pot.
After Hong Honghong smiled proudly, she picked up the white pepper powder on the side......
Li Gengxin smiled. Turn around and raise your hand to catch the ready cuttlefish.
Hong Honghong sprinkled some pepper as if she didn't admit defeat, and quickly grabbed the cuttlefish on the side and began to slide the surface of the cuttlefish with a knife.
The cuttlefish has a black film on its surface. This one is very difficult to chew on when used. So when cooking, the chefs will tear off this black film.
At the same time, the internal organs were also sorted out by the two at the same time. The two of them cut down almost at the same time.
After the cuttlefish was cleaned, Li Gengxin and Hong Honghong cut out a cuttlefish ring with almost a knife. It barely took a few seconds for a single cuttlefish to cut out a dozen cuttlefish rings.
This is followed by the treatment of the shrimp, cutting off the whiskers of the shrimp, and then using scissors to make an opening in the shrimp head to squeeze out the dirt of the shrimp head. Pick open the back of the shrimp with a backhand knife and draw the fishy line...... (To be continued......)
