Chapter 118: The Contest Begins
"Was it glowing just now?"
Xia Meng just felt that the plate of tofu seemed to be glowing red, rubbed her eyes, and when she looked at it again, it looked like the mapo tofu was no different from last night's, as if the light she had just seen was her own illusion.
Blinded?
Xia Meng looked out of the window, it was afternoon at this time, maybe the sunlight outside the window had just reflected in.
"Magic mapo tofu? It's a strange name, but the mapo tofu made by my brother is really delicious, and it's nothing to have this name," Xia Meng flipped through the note and found that there were still words on the back.
It's my brother's handwriting.
[This plate is a successful work, you may come back late tonight, so you can eat this first.] γ
"Successful works, do you say that the previous ones are all failures?" Xia Meng's eyelids picked, the mapo tofu she made last night was already so delicious, could it still be improved?
She had always thought that her brother was enchanted, and he wouldn't really be able to improve, but if it was, how much could he improve.
But my brother is not bad, he knows that he will leave food for himself when he comes back late, and he didn't run away without saying a word, for this, Xia Meng nodded with satisfaction.
The note in his hand was put aside, and then he went to look at this plate of mapo tofu.
"Is this a success?"
I always feel that this plate of mapo tofu is very different.
Each piece of Mapo Tofu's tofu is just the right amount of perfection, perfect to the extreme, not like a plate of home cooking, but more like a work of art.
Xia Meng felt that his brother couldn't make progress before, the main reason was that even if mapo tofu was delicious, the essence of this dish was tofu, no matter how you did it, it would taste like tofu, and there was no way to make the texture and taste of top ingredients.
Tofu is tofu after all.
"But why? It's just a plate of mapo tofu, why does it give me this feeling. β
Xia Meng saw this plate of mapo tofu, and her saliva flowed out unconsciously, as if the mapo tofu in front of her had a fatal attraction to herself.
I couldn't help it, Xia Meng gently scooped it with a spoon.
When the mapo tofu in the spoon was put in his mouth, Xia Meng was directly stunned.
Click!
A bolt of lightning flashed from Xia Meng's back.
"This is ......"
"Wait a minute, where am I now?"
Xia Meng felt that his brain was a little confused, obviously he was still eating at home just now, but in the blink of an eye, Xia Meng suddenly found that he appeared on a mountain, no, it was not an ordinary mountain, it was a volcanic crater.
Boom!
The volcano behind Xia Meng erupted, and the huge and scorching magma erupted hundreds of meters high, and countless magma erupted from the volcano, and even the magma spewed out formed two huge words in the air.
γDelicious! γ
"It's ...... What ......"
Before Xia Meng came back to her senses, at the foot of the volcano, there was another huge tsunami, volcano, tsunami, these two completely different feelings sandwiched Xia Meng in the middle, washing her world view wave after wave.
The dream mapo tofu is so delicious, and the strong impact stimulates Xia Meng's five senses and brings her into the world of illusions.
By the time Xia Meng reacted, the mapo tofu in front of her had already been eaten.
Smack.
The spoon in Xia Meng's hand fell to the ground, and the taste just now directly impacted Xia Meng's three views, a dish is so delicious that it can make people hallucinate.
"What did my brother put in the tofu?"
β¦β¦
In the world of the Chinese master.
At this moment, the people downstairs made a mess, there was no way, they were all about to compete, Shao An and Admiral Li were in place, and the time for the competition was coming soon, but the chef had not yet appeared.
"Did you find it? Where the hell did Xia Ruo go," Jin Ling anxiously asked the people around her, "It's almost time to compete, why haven't you seen his people yet." β
"I've searched all the places, but I haven't found them," Master Liu also looked anxious.
"Wait a minute, did you say that Xia Ruo felt that he couldn't win, and then deliberately disappeared, so that he couldn't compete, and he could let the little master compete instead of him," Jin Ling suddenly thought of this possibility.
When the little master heard this, he shook his head.
"A lot of mapo tofu ingredients in the kitchen have disappeared, I guess Brother Xia Ruo must have found a special place to practice, and he will definitely come."
Shao An looked at the little master's side, with a sneer, as if he had already won the game, because he had already mastered the secret of the sixth flavor of mapo tofu.
Just about ten minutes before the time of the competition, the door of the hall was pushed open.
The moment the door opened, a huge wind blew in, and many people subconsciously squinted their eyes, accompanied by the wind, there was a familiar figure.
"Xia Ruo, you're finally here," Jin Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Xia Ruo.
Xia Ruo, who was dressed in white, and a cat beside him, walked straight in.
"I'm sorry, although I calculated the time, but I was a little late because I left dinner for my sister," Xia Ruo's tone was very flat, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he was much more confident than yesterday.
"Hey, sister, are you home?" Although Jin Ling was a little strange, she didn't ask too much.
"Brother Xia Ruo, how is the situation," the little master asked quietly after approaching Xia Ruo.
"No problem."
Xia Ruo made an OK gesture to the little master, but the little master couldn't understand it, but even if he couldn't understand it, the little master also understood Xia Ruo's confidence.
"This kid is a little different from yesterday," Shao An looked at Xia Ruo's direction and frowned.
At this time, the time for the competition has also arrived.
"When the time comes, let's start the competition," Admiral Li said, standing up.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
β¦β¦
After some cooking, Xia Ruo and Shao An both brought their respective dishes to Admiral Li.
Admiral Li didn't go directly to taste it, but glanced at Xia Ruo and Shao An below, and asked questions first.
"Now that you have all done it, then now I ask you, mapo tofu, pay attention to the five flavors of numbness, spicy, color, fragrance, and hotness, I will now ask the two of you, magic mapo tofu, its most important key, what is the sixth taste?"
"It's crispy!"
"It's crispy!"
Xia Ruo and Shao An gave the answer at the same time.
Shao An squinted his eyes and glanced at Xia Ruo, "It turns out that that kid has also found out." β
When Admiral Li heard the answers of the two, he seemed very satisfied, "Very good, you two have thought of it, the so-called crispy is the crunchy taste, and the sixth flavor I asked for is crispy." β
Admiral Li also glanced at Xia Ruo at this time, he didn't know it before, but after yesterday, he learned about it, and only then did he know that this young man was just a trainee chef downstairs from Ju Xia.
Being able to not be afraid of Shao An's challenge, and finding the answer to his question so quickly, he is still so young, and the future is limitless, Ju downstairs does not seem to have declined.
Admiral Li nodded.
"Next, I'll taste the mapo tofu of the two of you."
After that, the two entourages beside Admiral Li stepped forward and opened the round lids on the two plates of dishes at the same time, and suddenly, the two dishes emitted a dazzling red light.
The red light slowly spread out like ripples. 166 Reading Network
