Chapter 99: It's Too Fast
Although he doesn't know all kinds of dishes, he understands that the most important thing in cooking is to make the people who eat it feel the beauty of the food, rather than piling up all the bells and whistles that are just what is on the table.
It can be said that this Zhang Zhixian is a pragmatist, and he believes that everything must be done from reality, even if it is cooking. How to determine the quality of these chefs, in his opinion, as long as they taste it, the result will be known.
This chef didn't think about how hard to perfect his own dishes, but turned around and took care of other people's affairs, which is simply putting the cart before the horse.
And he still has a good impression of Jiang Liang, although the last time he saw Jiang Liang was in the county office, Jiang Liang was in court with Jiang Dashan's family, but her bearing as a young girl is incomparable to many men.
Such a woman, Zhang Zhixian is willing to give her a chance.
"Since it is one meat and one vegetable, and this Jiang girl has also completed it according to the conditions, where is the problem?"
The chef who questioned it didn't expect Zhang Zhixian to say this, and his face immediately turned red.
Originally, he didn't look down on Jiang Li, a little girl who had to steal the limelight among a group of big men, and he was unhappy, so he thought about giving her a little color, but he didn't expect to be reprimanded by Zhang Zhixian instead, and he immediately felt embarrassed.
The others didn't expect that Zhang Zhixian, who had always been silent, would suddenly speak for Jiang Liang at this time, and they were all a little surprised.
However, Zuo Lao, who knew Zhang Zhixian's personality, felt that it was very normal, snorted lightly, and took the lead in expressing his position.
"The old man also thinks that there is no problem with this girl's approach, I don't know what a few people think?"
Since someone took the initiative to stand up and support Zhang Zhixian, Bai Xian and Wang Fushen naturally would not put forward contrary opinions and make people unable to step down. As for Zhou Yuan, although he didn't look at Zuo Lao very well, he also felt that there was nothing wrong with this matter.
Zhou Yuan felt that Jiang Liang was only shallow in the end and his skills were not proficient, so he thought of using the cooking method to make up the numbers.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel proud, only to feel that Boss Cai was also sure of this matter.
Anyway, Boss Cai is sure to win, and it doesn't matter what other people do with him.
"There are not many chefs in Baiweiju who have the ability, and this Jiang girl should have practiced cooking so quickly."
The last time Chef Gu competed with Jiang Li, he found that she was very proficient in cooking, and every step was able to be done in an orderly manner without any chaos. While admiring it, he felt that Jiang Liang was also forced by the environment, and he also had some sympathy for her in his heart.
Hearing what Chef Gu said, the other chefs gradually regained their composure, feeling that what he said made sense.
"It's not about the speed of cooking, it's about the taste. This little girl is being reckless. ”
Someone listened to Chef Gu's words, quickly found the steps, and consciously said a truth and was proud of it.
Several other chefs also had similar thoughts to this person, thinking that Jiang Liang only had speed, and he might not be able to make good dishes.
"Yes, we were too nervous."
"I don't think there's anything to show for it, they all say that color and aroma are the criteria for judging whether a dish is good or not, just these points, this Jiang girl didn't do it at all."
A few people whispered for a while, and then went to do their own things with peace of mind.
The onlookers outside also talked about it when they saw all this, and they were very curious about why Jiang Liang made such a bland dish on such an occasion.
Could it be that she consciously felt that she would lose to these chefs, and she didn't want to lose too ugly, so she used this kind of strategy and simply gave up?
If this is really the reason, it is better not to participate in the first place, and it will save people from being embarrassed.
Regardless of what everyone thought in their hearts, soon the chefs' dishes were ready.
The officials acted as servants and brought their dishes to the table in the middle of the hall.
After they had laid out the dishes and marked who had made them, the judges got up and stepped forward to start tasting and scoring.
"Well, I wonder where we start trying this?"
Walking to the middle of the lobby and looking at the dazzling array of dishes, several judges couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't know where to choose chopsticks.
"Since Miss Jiang was the first to make it, it is better to start with hers to taste it first. How is it? ”
Wang Fushen glanced at the dishes on the table, and felt that they really had their own merits, and they all looked delicious at first glance, but he didn't know what to do.
However, when his eyes fell on the two dishes made by Jiang Li, he was immediately attracted to it.
You must know that the dishes made by everyone present are rich in color and look delicious, but they give people a feeling of similarity, but the simple style of Jiang Liang is particularly eye-catching.
As soon as he said this suggestion, several judges looked at each other and felt that there was some truth.
"However, if you taste Miss Jiang's dishes and then taste the craftsmanship of other chefs, isn't it unfair to her?"
Bai Xian hesitated for a moment when he heard this, he still had some pity for the jade, it was already rare for a young girl in Jiang Li to have the courage to participate in the competition.
And she has to be crushed and bullied by a group of adults with superb cooking skills at such a young age, which is really unbearable. Maybe she lost interest in cooking from then on, and refused to pick up a knife to cut vegetables again.
And Bai Xian is actually a person who doesn't like to eat staple foods very much, and what he doesn't like the most is to eat white rice, so looking at the white rice made by Jiang Li, he actually has some resistance in his heart.
But since he is a judge, he naturally wants to try it.
"It's better to start tasting with the dishes of Barilla first, and eat a bite of each dish, so that it will not delay too long, and you can try all the dishes as quickly as possible, so that you will not lose the original flavor because the dishes are cold, resulting in errors in judgment."
As the president of the business community, Zhou Yuan is still quite bold in doing things, and he quickly made a judgment.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Zhixian and wanted to ask for his opinion.
Zhang Zhixian also felt that this method was feasible, and nodded when he heard the words, which was considered to be agreed to his proposal.
Seeing this, everyone didn't say much, and directly raised their chopsticks and began to taste them officially.
"Let's start with this bowl of white rice."
Wang Fushen had been hungry for a long time, and at this time he wanted to eat something that could fill his stomach, and when he saw that there was no one on the table who was a staple food except Jiang Li, of course he wanted to try Jiang Li's cooking.
In fact, he was quite curious about what kind of idea he would choose to cook during the competition.
"Well, I'll eat too."
Seeing that the judges next to him all moved their chopsticks, Bai Xian could only start tasting.
