"Hahaha, old Mike, you don't know. Ji Ran is a companion we met in our adventures, and his cooking skills are superb! Baker laughed.

Old Mac felt that his authority had been challenged. As a two-hundred-nine-year-old dwarf, immersed in cooking all his life, he is actually said to be inferior to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old human?

"Hmph, very well, you have succeeded in angering old Mike, so you have to pay the price for your words and deeds! War! It's a war! I'm going to challenge you, your name is ...... Ji Ran, right? Wacky name...... I'm going to challenge your cooking skills! If you win, I'll treat you to this meal today! If you lose, stay and wash my dishes for a week! ”

Old Mike was so angry that his beard was blown up—even so, Ji Ran still didn't see his mouth, which showed how long and messy his beard was.

Ji Ran was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't cry or laugh. Does this have anything to do with me? I didn't speak, this old Mike's food was quite delicious, why did things automatically find the head?

"Old Mike, stop making a fuss. Baker just said the wrong thing, and I apologize for him. With so many people watching, aren't you afraid of affecting your tavern's business? Rice spoke on the side. It can be seen that he doesn't want to cause attention here.

But it's a little late now. The adventurers who were also eating and drinking in the tavern had already set their sights on their table. The dwarf's voice was already loud, and old Mike was the shopkeeper, so he naturally attracted the attention of others even more.

"Apologize? Apologizing won't solve the problem! My reputation has been heavily affected and I have to compete to reclaim my dignity as a foodie and chef! Old Mike stood straight, and at this moment his figure was surprisingly tall, and he could even catch up with the seated Rice......

"That...... Old Mike, right? How to say, everyone has different tastes when it comes to food. Some people like to eat sweet, and some people like to eat salty. Some people prefer to be lighter, but some people just like big fish and big meat. It's unfair to simply say that one food is better than another. As food lovers and chefs, we don't have to score a lot, right? ”

Ji Ran didn't want to have a cooking competition. As soon as I came out of the blue pine forest, I wanted to take a break and then prepare for the exam to go to school. I'm not afraid of losing in my cooking skills, but as Rice said, there are too many things to reveal, which is not necessarily a good thing......

The dwarf old Mike listened to Ji Ran's words, and the expression on his face softened a little, but he refused to let go of the competition at all.

"It's a pleasure for you kid to talk, but this time I'm really determined! How many years, how many years have no one questioned my craft! As a dwarf who loves food and lives his life, I must wash away this shame! ”

No one is ashamed of you, old man! Ji Ran felt that he was really wronged, so he cast a vicious gaze on Baker.

Baker is a character who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Seeing Old Mike propose the competition, his excited eyes lit up.

"Ji Ran, just compare with him! Anyway, it's all ordinary meat, and it's nothing to cook it once, so that he knows that there are people in this world who are better than him! Hey, old Mike, we don't have to slack your money for a meal, and if you lose, how about you give us a bucket of your treasured ice liqueur? ”

As soon as they heard the name Ice Dew, Les and Ben's eyes lit up at the same time. Even Erin seemed to show a little bit of interest.

Ice liqueur? Is this thing delicious? Ji Ran doesn't particularly like to drink, and naturally doesn't know anything about the wine in this world. But seeing other people's expressions, it seems to be a very precious liquor?

"Ice liqueur...... Hmph, Beck, you kid, you've been thinking about ice wine for a long time, haven't you? No problem, if this kid's cooking skills really pass me, why not bring you a barrel of ice liqueur? But compared to this, the stakes of washing a week's plate are too small, at least a month! ”

Old Michael heard the name of Ice Dew, and there was a clear look of pain on his face. But for the sake of the dignity of a gourmand and a chef, he let it go!

"Old Mike, Ji Ran and Lydia are about to go to the Azure Wind Academy for the entrance exam, but they don't have time to help you wash the dishes. Les, ......hearing that old Mac was willing to bet on ice and wine, did not object to the game, but pulled out a piece of something that looked very plain.

"Purple silk potato?" Seeing this stem, Old Mike's eyes were immediately attracted.

"That's right, purple potato. I heard that the dwarves can use this thing to make wine, and it can make quite mellow wine. Enough to bet on your ice wine, right? Les tossed the fist-sized tuber up and down.

I have to say that this thing hit the soft underbelly of the dwarf old Mike at once. The dwarves' love of wine is unparalleled, and every dwarf can do nothing else, but never without drinking! On the other hand, the dwarves' winemaking skills are also quite high, and several dwarve-specific wines are even more expensive luxury goods on the big 6.

This purple silk potato was found by Ji Ran, and it was originally intended to be used as a spice, but Les asked for this purple silk potato - Les knew the value of this thing in the eyes of the dwarves.

Ji Ran didn't know that this purple silk potato could actually be used to make wine, and now he sighed in his heart, the civilization of the other world is not as backward as he imagined, for example, this dwarf can use the spice purple silk potato in the game to make wine, and it seems that the wine made is not bad......

"Good! That's it! Old dwarf Mike immediately made a decision.

Next, the two sides discussed the criteria for judging the food, and finally decided to select 10 customers as judges in the tavern. Only when you get more than half of the praise can you become a winner.

Ji Ran was inexplicably involved in a cooking competition, and he really didn't know why. But since everyone else thinks they should compare, give it a try. Anyway, Baker also reminded him just now that cooking with ordinary meat is still delicious, but the special effect is gone, and the secrets on his body will not be exposed.

To show fairness, Old Mike the Dwarf decides that both of them will cook the same type of dish to determine the winner's choice - so he brings out two large pieces of beef.

"Whatever you want, as long as it's made from this piece of beef!" Old Mac made a confident statement, and then began to fiddle around with the frying pan on the side—he was going to make his specialty, fried steak with black pepper.

A piece of beef, what do you want to do? Ji Ran glanced around. This is the kitchen of the tavern and is equipped with all kinds of kitchen utensils. And there's a wide variety of seasonings...... Although there is no soy sauce or anything, it is quite rich.

"Okay, let's have a simple dish." Ji Ran sighed, picked up the kitchen knife, and began to cut into pieces.

What he is going to make is braised beef. This dish is considered home-cooked, but it takes a little more time. But that's okay, there's the cooking skills in the game to help.

The people who were still in the hall of the tavern were all waiting for the two of them to be baked.

In fact, Old Mike's craftsmanship is really good, at least in this Songpan Town, it is quite reputable. If it is compared to the chef of the big restaurant in the big city, it may be a few points worse, but compared to the rest of the town, it is a big crush.

But that young boy, so respected by Rice, should have two hits, right? Aside from the bystanders, the ten selected judges are all a little salivating.

About an hour later, both men came out.

Old Mike's black pepper fried steak was a lot of effort, otherwise it wouldn't have taken so much time. Judging from the momentum of his holding this plate of steak, he is really full of confidence.

And Ji Ran is much simpler. The braised beef took a little longer, but it was more flavorful. At least from his own point of view, the dish was already at his best - except, of course, the quality of the ingredients and the lack of seasonings.

The two of them put their own dishes on the table, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Oh...... Old Mike's fried steak with black pepper! The aroma is still so enticing...... Also What's that dish? Is it beef? ”

"This dish...... There is a special aroma...... Even more fragrant than steak! What kind of dish is this? It looks pretty good too......"

Ji Ran's braised beef is indeed full of color, flavor and flavor, and it is placed on the plate, giving people an indescribable **. The thick soup is soaked in red pieces of meat, and the radish and green onion are served on the side, and it looks like the mouth can't help but flow down.

Several judges glanced at each other, and then invariably stretched out their knives and forks, aiming at the two dishes in front of them.

"This steak is fried just right, and the tenderness of the beef is completely revealed. Coupled with the aroma of black pepper, it's really delicious...... "Most people's first choice is Old Mack's fried steak with black pepper. The price of this dish is not low, the key is that Old Mac does not make it for everyone. If you do it with your heart, it will take too long, so you don't have to worry about it...... Didn't that smash your own sign?

And Old Mack's dish didn't disappoint them either, still with that familiar taste. Hearing the admiration of the judges, Old Michael happily stroked his beard, his head raised high, and looked proud.

However, the two judges who ate two pieces of Ji Ran's braised beef were all stunned after the meat was eaten. After a long time, they exclaimed, "It's so delicious!" ”

Then, the two judges immediately couldn't wait to deliver the two pieces of beef to their mouths.

"Hey, don't go too far, it's just such a dish, don't let you all eat it all!" Several of the other judges immediately stopped doing it and immediately came over and started sharing this plate of braised beef.

"Oh my God...... It's something I've never tasted before! Tender and delicious, juicy...... I've never eaten anything so good before! It's wonderful! After several judges ate the braised beef, their eyes widened one by one, and their faces were full of incredulity.

In an instant, Old Mack's plate of fried steak was gone.
