Chapter 80: The Foundation

"Chef White wins!"

"I also support Chef White!" The judges' voices sounded one after another, all of them supporting Bai Caier. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"What? Are you mistaken? Chef Li suddenly realized that the results he heard were not the same as he had imagined, and he exclaimed in disbelief.

"Hey, it's the first time that a contestant has questioned the judges, so please ask the judges to explain your doubts, so that the contestants are willing to lose and lose!" The host immediately seized this breaking point, and shouted for fear that the world would not be chaotic.

Chef Li was unlucky this time, a lot of thoughts came to his mind at that moment just now, causing him to keep his mouth shut for a while, and said what he shouldn't have said, but he didn't expect to be stabbed by the host.

But since this is the case, he also let it go, maybe it was because the judges took pity on the jade and gave himself a pit! Therefore, the judges must say a reason, otherwise they will never give up.

Four of the judges voted for Bai Caier, they glanced at each other, and finally Li Tiegang solved everyone's doubts: "You must think it is strange, why is the opinion of the public judges five or five, but the opinions of the judges are one-sided?" Actually, it's very simple, we said that today's game is the foundation, so we focus on the foundation first. When it comes to noodles, texture is the most basic thing. In comparison, this jade shredded chicken noodles are firmer and very refreshing! ā€

"As the saying goes, salt is bone, alkali is tendon. One of them uses salt and eggs, and the other uses vegetable juice, both of which have made their noodles muscular, which can be described as equal. But Chef Lee made a fatal mistake that led to the loss of the match. ā€

"The time for the competition is limited, but he has too many excellent ingredients to deal with. Originally, his dough would have to be crushed for at least an hour, but he paid too much attention to the best ingredients, which caused him to shorten the kneading time. In this way, although the flavor of the toppings is perfect, the heat of the noodles as a base is not smooth and yellow, and the muscles are strong. ā€

Chef Bai is the opposite, she focuses on kneading the dough, so the kneaded dough is smooth and delicate, there is not even a little bubble, and there is a faint light through, indicating that the distance between the gluten protein molecules in the dough has been reduced and the density has increased to the extreme. Only such a dough can make perfect noodles. What's more, the taste of her shredded chicken and laba garlic is not lost to the three fresh toppings made of the best ingredients, and it is certainly a matter of course to win, which is not surprising at all. ā€

"I see! In the eyes of ordinary people, it is difficult to distinguish between winners and losers, but in the eyes of the judges, there is such a huge gap! The host kept flying out of the knife and poked Chef Li in the chest.

Chef Li looked at Long Shao, who gave him a bunch of excellent ingredients, and he was also angry. After being reminded by the judges, he suddenly woke up, and it seemed that he had taken advantage of the best ingredients, but in fact, he was stunned by this sudden happiness. But this failure also made him sober up and deepened his understanding of the basics. The so-called Seon lost his horse, but that's it!

And Long Shao is also a baby's heart, and he gave Chef Li such a big gift, but it achieved the opposite effect. This person is so useless that he can't even bear such a little blessing, as if he is helping Bai Cai'er.

This game is over, and the biggest gain among everyone is not Bai Cai'er who won, nor Chef Li who has woken up, but Rob who is watching the game from the sidelines.

Originally, he didn't have a clue how to make his next steamed buns, but the result of this competition made him suddenly understand what he should do: since the most important thing in a good bowl of noodles is to make the noodles well, the most important thing for a good bun is to adjust the filling well.

Why? If the noodles, soup, and toppings in a bowl of noodles are indispensable and an organic whole, then the noodles are the protagonists, and the other parts are the supporting characters. The main character is top-notch, plus top-notch supporting characters, and of course top-notch.

But if the main and supporting characters are not all top-notch, then the difference is huge. The first-rate protagonist plus the second-rate supporting role is still first-rate, but the second-rate protagonist plus the first-class supporting role can only be regarded as second-rate. This is also why Bai Caier won on a good foundation, her noodles are first-class, no matter how they are in other aspects, they are first-class, while Chef Li's noodles are only second-rate, no matter how they are done in other aspects, they can only be second-rate.

For Rob, buns can of course also be divided into skins and fillings. And the stuffing is the protagonist, and the skin can only be counted as a supporting role. Getting the stuffing right is the basis for winning, and getting the skin right just increases the odds of winning.

"The topic of the third group of contestants is steamed buns, please start with the two of you!" As the host said and introduced, Rob and Chef Zhou, who also drew this topic, walked to the edge of the stove and started their own competition.

Chef Zhou walked to the stove with a struggling look on his face, as if his heart was full of great contradictions. Because he is also the one who received the best ingredients from Long Shao, Chef Zhao used too many excellent ingredients to make toppings, and he lost a lot, and he was also ready to use a lot of excellent ingredients? He was afraid that he would get the same result, so he hesitated.

But this game is not waiting for anyone, although the time stipulated for this competition is quite long, and no one has overtime until now. But today's topic is to make a staple food, which takes a lot of time, and Chef Zhao just now had a problem because of the tight time, so this week Chef has no time to hesitate.

"Forget it, I'd better not use these superb ingredients, so as not to make a bad impression on the judges. I'll make a vegetarian bun, it's all ordinary ingredients, and the judges of the buns made in this way should have nothing to say! Chef Zhou thought about it, and finally felt that it was important to please the judges, so he unexpectedly chose to make vegetarian buns.

Making dough for buns is not the same as making noodles, and you need to make dough. First put the yeast and sugar in warm water to dissolve, the water temperature should not be too high, otherwise it will kill the yeast.

Then pour it into a plate according to the ratio of flour and water to one, stir it into a honeycomb shape with chopsticks, and then knead the dough with your hands to the extent that it is smooth, hand, and basin. Once reconciled, cover the pot with a damp cloth and place it in a warm place to leaven.

The dough made by the two is a routine, so there is no difference. After reconciling the noodles, the two of them began the process of making the filling. This week, the chef had a lot of excellent ingredients, but when it came time to make the fillings, he threw them all aside, and instead found ordinary ingredients such as dried vegetables, frozen tofu, soybean sprouts, and vermicelli.

"What is this? Crab roe, shrimp, scallops, ham are not used, do you want to raise us as livestock? "The public judges, who had seen the best ingredients and wanted to have another enjoyable time, were not happy and shouted!
