1739 Apt Evaluation
PS: Thank you for the tip from Blue Night Stardust!
Under everyone's gaze, Choi Jung-won first chose Choi Hyun-seok's dumpling sunshine.
He scooped up the dumplings with a spoon and put some creamy broth on top by the way.
He didn't eat much, he just bit the dumpling wrapper, and incorporated the filling inside and the skin on the outside into his mouth, as well as some broth.
After chewing slowly, all the food entered his stomach.
Unlike the other guests' overly contrived expressions, Choi Jung-won has always been calm. It wasn't until I had tasted all the connotations of the food that I smiled peacefully.
Choi Hyun Seok was much more nervous, his two big hands just stirred together, and the protruding joints showed how hard he worked.
"How does it feel to be in the office?" Seeing that Cui Zhengyuan didn't speak, Zheng Hengdun couldn't help but ask urgingly.
Cui Zhengyuan already had the answer in his heart and began to say his evaluation. "The food looks light on the surface, but when you eat it, it feels greasy. No matter how you make the meat itself, it is impossible to be absolutely light. If you add milk to it, it will be a bit more than a healthy meal. If you want to make your food feel refreshing, it's a good idea to put some effort into your choice of condiments. In my opinion, it would be better if lemon juice could be used appropriately. ”
When Choi Jung-won was commenting, Choi Hyun-seok couldn't care about being nervous anymore and was already listening attentively.
He didn't expect Cui Zhengyuan, who was so picky-mouthed, to praise him, on the contrary, proper guidance would make him take a step forward in his cooking skills.
Now when he heard Cui Zhengyuan mention lemon juice, he couldn't help but slap his face anymore. "Heck, I was trying to solve the greasy problem when I started it, but I never thought of lemon juice. Thank you, Chef Choi, I will definitely improve this dish carefully. ”
Cui Zhengyuan nodded, and he had a good impression of this chef who was modest on the surface. Therefore, when commenting on the dumplings themselves, he doesn't mind mentioning more. "Because the soup is thicker. Then using such a thicker dough will not be conducive to chewing and swallowing, and here I will learn from Master Li Lianfu. In China, there is a way to make zuò thin-skinned wontons, and it is believed that it will be better after improvement. And because the dough is thin, then the juices inside will penetrate out better, further neutralizing the oiliness of the broth and achieving perfect unity. ”
Choi Hyun Seok bowed repeatedly, but the figure on his face was unusually flying.
Cui Zhengyuan's just a few words made him feel very empowered, and he vaguely realized that his cooking skills might be able to go further.
In addition, the addition of wheat sprouts is the finishing touch, which adds a touch of natural taste to the rich meat. If you replace the wheat sprouts with a little green yang chili. If you want to use spicy flavor to hit the oiliness, it may be more appropriate. Cui Zhengyuan even made some comments on the selection of materials this time.
Not only Choi Hyun-seok, but even other chefs who did not have a competition sat down and remembered every word he said.
After commenting on Choi Hyun-seok's cuisine, the next thing is Hong Seok-cheon.
Compared with the sunny plain hue of dumplings, Hong Xitian's beef dishes are saffron and green.
Cui Zhengyuan's way of tasting is still very light, but before eating, he deliberately picked up the water cup and rinsed his mouth with the water inside.
Watch his movements. Zheng Hengdun couldn't help but laugh again: "Ah, we don't have a great cooking competition here, we don't need to be so serious." ”
Cui Zhengyuan's expression was very stern, "The chefs used dishes that were prepared sincerely. How can you treat it with a casual attitude? ”
As soon as his words came out, all the chefs present burst into unprecedented applause.
"Wow, it's really Executive Cui, who understands the mind of our chef." Park Jun-woo eagerly ran over. hugged Cui Zhengyuan's back and didn't let go at all.
Although the others were not as frivolous as him, the appearance of tears in their eyes showed that they were deeply moved.
They are celebrity chefs though. But I didn't participate in a real cooking competition.
In ordinary variety shows, the guests pay more attention to the effect of the show, and how many people know the etiquette when tasting food?
Therefore, everyone eats very casually, one after another, and does not know that the mixture of various flavors in the mouth will affect the evaluation of food.
Choi Jung-won was the first to take each of their carefully prepared works so seriously.
Seeing that everyone was moved, Zheng Hengdun said unexpectedly: "It's the first time I've found out that you have unannoying times on the show." ”
Cui Zhengyuan immediately ridiculed him. "This is also the last time it was found."
With just one sentence, Zheng Hengdun immediately regained his virtue of crying and laughing. "How can there be threats on the show? Saying such horrible things will teach bad children. ”
Choi Jung-won's answer brought an unexpected laugh. "Isn't this show banned for fifteen? What do you not know if you are over fifteen? ”
Jeong Hyong-don held his heart in his hand and fell to the back of his chair. Sadly grabbed Jin Chengzhu's hand, and said weakly as if he was telling a will: "No, I want to ask for leave to recuperate." The future show will depend on you alone, and you must hold on until I come back alive. ”
Kim Sung-joo laughed with tears in his eyes, and as a result, his eyes were blurred. Regardless of whether Zheng Hengdun is dead or alive, he just takes off his glasses and keeps wiping them. "Don't worry, I'll find another partner."
His defection left Jung Hyung-dun in utter despair, leaving only a howl in exchange for a louder laugh.
After making enough trouble, Cui Zhengyuan picked up the spoon and began to mouth at Hong Xitian's cooking.
He first tasted a bit of cold beef, and then he tried a slice of salad. Finally, the beef and salad are mixed together, and each chewing time is long.
When he put down the spoon, everyone's feelings tightened.
"Is there grapefruit in the beef? There is a very natural aroma. Choi Jeong-won asked Hong Seok-tian.
After receiving an affirmative answer, he continued, "If you don't add yuzu, it's just ordinary beef. As a result, the taste is now refreshing, and there is no fishy smell of raw beef. If you add it to the salad, you won't feel the smoke at all, and it is a great dish to share with your loved one on a summer night when the moon and stars are shining. ”
Everyone's mouths were wide open. looked at Hong Xitian in disbelief.
If they remember correctly, this is the first time that Cui Zhengyuan has said praise since the recording of the show.
Unexpectedly, the person who grabbed this honor was actually Hong Xitian.
Unwilling, Jung Hyung-dun asked, "Isn't there any flaw in this dish?" ”
As expected, Cui Zhengyuan really left a foreshadowing. "In the raw beef salad, a lot of fresh and crispy vegetables are added. Together with the flavor of yuzu, it neutralizes the fishy smell of beef. If that's less than perfect, it might be better if you add some chopped apples. Because the fragrance of fruits is definitely more than that of vegetables, it will make girls like it more. In addition, the beef chosen by Hong Xitian is not very good. It is not very suitable for making zuò raw mixed beef. If the quality of the beef is a little better, this dish is a masterpiece. ”
While Jin Chengzhu was fascinated by what he heard, he shouted to Hong Xitian: "Ah, you want to be on fire, do you know?" Executive Cui gave you the highest evaluation! Listening to Hendon, he rarely boasted like that. ”
"That's right, at least it's the first time I've heard him say so many nice things." Zheng Hengdun shook his head and looked like a person who had come over.
Hong Xitian squinted, smiling as brightly as his big bald head.
The completely different evaluations before and after also led to the loss of suspense. Hong Seok-cheon unexpectedly got a crucial victory from Choi Hyun-seok's hands, and he dreamed of being a celebrity chef.
As for Choi Hyun-seok, who failed, he was not very upset. Although Choi Jung-won pointed out various problems with his cooking, he did not say that it was not delicious.
More importantly, he got a lot of guidance from Cui Zhengyuan today. After going back and digesting it, the progress can be imagined.
Compare it to. This kind of superficial victory or defeat is really nothing.
Next is the afternoon tea competition, which was replaced by Chinese cuisine master Li Lianfu and Li Yuanri, who returned from studying abroad.
The appearance of the two after they were in place caused everyone to laugh.
Zheng Hengdun pointed out unceremoniously. "Hahaha, it's the first time I've seen Master Li Lianfu look so respectful."
It's okay if he doesn't say it. As soon as they said it, everyone's laughter couldn't be suppressed.
As the eldest of all chefs, he is also a master chef who has been famous for decades. Although Li Lianfu is usually very quiet, he is also arrogant and awe-inspiring, and he is not convinced by anyone.
Even if he loses to others in the show, his high-minded eyes make others think that he is not a loser.
But today, I saw this master standing obediently in front of the board. The two arms, which were particularly strong because of years of hard work, were tightly folded downward, and finally the two hands were tightly attached to the lower abdomen, just like the little brother who had been taught by the eldest brother.
What a rare sight, it's no wonder that Zheng Hengdun will complain.
Being laughed at by everyone, Li Lianfu became even more nervous, and sweat stains began to be visible on his forehead.
Afraid that he would not play well, Cui Zhengyuan hurriedly encouraged him in Chinese: "Master Li, just do it with your heart." Cooking skills in the heart, love delicious, do not be bound by foreign objects. ”
The familiar local voice sounded in his ears, which instantly calmed Li Lianfu. smiled gratefully at Cui Zhengyuan, and also restored the chef's calmness. "Executive Cui, I would like to consult, can you eat spicy?"
Seeing Li Lianfu enter the state, Cui Zhengyuan was very satisfied and nodded. "I'm casual, as long as it's not too spicy. Afternoon tea is a casual diet, and too spicy is not in line with the purpose. ”
Li Lianfu's eyes were calm, he took notes carefully, and he had already begun to conceive his own works.
Compared with Li Lianfu, Li Yuanri on the side was even more nervous.
This little fat man, who is more popular than cooking, is like a schoolboy who is blocked at the door after school, his eyes are blank, he is sweating, and he doesn't know if he can pass the test.
He has a good face, and it is difficult to make people hate. So Cui Zhengyuan also smiled gently at him: "Chef Li Yuanri, I like the leisurely of Western Europe very much. Please let me taste the rare relaxation. ”
Choi Jung-won's smile is infectious, as warm as the Sicilian afternoon sun. The pure sunlight washed Li Yuanri's eyes, which magically calmed his heart.
When the two top chefs are in the groove, it is believed that another fierce battle will begin soon. (To be continued......)
