Chapter 156: Discernment

"Bastard!"

When he made a mistake in his busyness, the more nervous Boss Cai was, the more frequent he made mistakes, and in the end, he almost hit his finger.

Fortunately, the assistant chef on the side was quick-eyed, which helped him escape the catastrophe.

However, it was also because of his constant mistakes that Boss Cai's anger became more and more vigorous, so he almost didn't smash the pot and leave on the spot.

However, although Boss Cai was busy for a while, the speed of cooking was not slow, and it was actually completed in the third.

Jiang Liang stood in the pavilion, seeing Boss Cai's fat body swaying on the boat, people couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for him, for fear that he would suddenly fall from the boat and splash a circle of water.

Jiang Liang watched Boss Cai arrive at the pavilion with a cold eye, stepped forward with the food box, and showed a flattering smile to the judges.

"Judges, please also taste the "Fish Play Lotus Pond" that I carefully cooked.

Jiang Liang understood when he heard this introduction, it seems that Boss Cai's dish is lotus seed fish soup, but he has taken a very elegant name.

At first glance, the name can easily appeal to the judges.

Several judges were very interested in this dish when they heard this, and asked the maids to serve a bowl each.

Jiang Liang glanced at it casually, although it took some time on the boat, this lotus seed fish soup was still steaming when it was delivered.

Several judges first made a comment on the appearance, and then began to move the chopsticks.

It can be said that they have to taste several dishes in the morning, and each one must be carefully tasted, and there are only a few who can attract them.

Jiang Liang knew that in order to ensure fairness and justice, these judges would evaluate from all angles when tasting, and it was normal to spend a little time.

She looked at the sky and couldn't help but let her thoughts fly, not caring what kind of high score Boss Cai's dish got in the end.

In her opinion, everything she can do has already been done, and the rest is only up to what the results of these juries give.

At this moment, a sudden burst of shouting came, which frightened her and pulled her away from her thoughts.

Jiang Liang looked at Boss Cai arguing with Zuo Lao with a red face, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he looked quite dissatisfied.

"Have you always tasted it wrong? I clearly made fish soup made with silver carp from Yuhe, how could it not be! Don't talk nonsense and slander others! ”

When each chef was asked to prepare the ingredients before, the origin of the ingredients was deliberately stipulated, and it was because of this that Jiang Liang had to take the risk of picking them on Yushan Mountain.

Lu Yiyue was quite unimpressed with this before, feeling that they were all bamboo shoots, even if they were tongue-in-cheek, they might not be able to eat differently, and she also came up with the idea of asking Jiang Liang to simply spend a lot of money to buy more bamboo shoots to cook.

She felt that not only did she not have to waste time searching for ingredients, but she could do more with less and save herself the hard work of traveling.

Even on the way home, she heard Lu Yiyue complain that she went to Yushan with a lot of effort, and even almost died because of the thieves.

But at this moment, Jiang Liang made an unexpected discovery, and it seems that the reason why there is such a request is not without reason.

At this moment, Boss Cai still doesn't know what the problem is, he only thinks that Zuo Lao is deliberately making things difficult for himself, and he is so angry that he blushes and has a thick neck, so he has to reason with his old man.

"Isn't this dish delicious?"

Looking at Boss Cai's angry face, Zuo Lao looked calm, but his eyes were full of disdain when he looked at the other party.

Boss Cai was stared at like this, and when he saw this, he immediately threw a fist on the long table, as if he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, but his voice was obviously irrepressible.

"The ingredients used in my fish play lotus pond are all first-class, whether it is the side dishes or the craftsmanship, I think they are all good. I dare to pack a ticket, you just search the entire Rongquan City, and there is no second person who can make this dish! ”

Boss Cai's words are really arrogant, as if there is no stronger chef than him in the entire Rongquan City.

This sentence immediately attracted a cold snort from the chef on the edge of the river fence, but the other party obviously didn't dare to provoke Boss Cai, just glanced at him and quickly retracted his gaze.

Zuo Lao listened to Boss Cai's clamour, and he was not angry, but smiled faintly.

Bai Xian on the side saw it, but he was the first to speak.

"Boss Cai, are you sure that your fish is the best product this season?"

When Boss Cai heard Bai Xian's question, he thought that he was planning to stand on his side, so he immediately nodded yes. "Naturally! This is the best silver carp from Yuhe that I have painstakingly purchased. ”

"Why, don't you think there's something wrong with this fish?"

In the face of Zuo Lao, Boss Cai still dared to shout, but he didn't dare to offend Bai Xian easily, after all, Zuo Lao was a literati, and he didn't have anything to do with him on weekdays.

But Bai Xian is different, he is still very interesting.

Bai Xian sneered when he heard this, and there was undisguised mockery in his voice.

"I won't say anything, you can taste it yourself."

Boss Cai didn't believe in evil, so he snatched the tableware from the hand of a little maid, picked up a spoon and scooped it from the bowl, but he didn't rush to put it in his mouth, but looked at it first.

The meat of the fish is indeed the normal state of silver carp, and there is no peculiar smell.

He looked at the spoonful of fish, and the heart that was still hanging before fell back to its original place, and it was directly put into his mouth and chewed carefully.

The flesh of the fish was quite delicate, but for some reason, he felt that there was a strange earthy smell in it.

Once this smell was discovered, it seemed that it could no longer dissipate, making Boss Cai's face become gloomy little by little.

No way, there is no problem with his cooking skills, no matter what shortcomings the fish itself has, he should also get rid of this fishy smell in his cooking, how can it be ......

"The biggest problem with your fish play lotus pond is this fish meat!"

Zuo Lao watched Boss Cai's expression change, and finally couldn't help but sneer, glanced up at him, stroked his beard slowly, and explained slowly: "The old man is unfortunately a native of Rongquan, and what he knows best is the silver carp in the Yu River. This month, only the silver carp in Yuhe is the most delicate and refreshing. ”

"Moreover, at this time of year, silver carp elsewhere will have a unique earthy smell of freshwater fish, I didn't know before, or Zuo Lao mentioned it, I just went to try it once, sure enough, it's really this truth!"

Bai Xian listened to Zuo Lao's words and interjected at the right time, saying: "If you don't know how to do this kind of thing, it's really not clear. ”

"Indeed, just like Miss Jiang's bamboo shoots on Dinghu Lake, it is indeed from Yushan."

Zhang Zhixian, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly spoke and added.

"I've only eaten it once, but you can't be wrong with the taste. When I was young, I traveled to many places and ate bamboo shoots from many places, and the taste may be the same to ordinary people, but I can clearly recognize it. ”
