Chapter 68: Preliminaries (2)

Princess Ziqing and Lin Muyang's eyes always shot at the two people in the field, but Princess Ziqing looked at Jin Haoxuan, but Lin Muyang looked at Xiang Zixi.

"Bring it on!" Princess Ziqing said indifferently: "This palace wants to taste it with the three highnesses!" ”

Xiang Zixi's expression was always faint, pretending that he didn't know the princess or Lin Muyang.

"You can start preparing the second course!" Lin Muyang's figure flashed, he tasted it first, and said immediately.

You know, if any of the four judges question or criticize or complain, the competition will be stopped at any time! Lin Muyang was the first to try it, and then made a decision for everyone, which immediately made the other three judges stunned.

The prince of the kingdom of Ling was the first to react, and said in a low voice: "That's the rose that my brother likes, right?" Sure enough, with thorns! ”

Lin Muyang's eyes narrowed and he didn't answer, but everyone present could see his maintenance.

Princess Ziqing smiled lightly, this kind of ending was something she was happy to see, so she immediately echoed: "You go and prepare the second dish!" ”

Of course, the King of Qi of the Dark Kingdom and the Prince of the Kingdom of Xuan would not disobey the meaning of Lin Muyang and Princess Ziqing, and immediately nodded cooperatively: "Crisp and refreshing-smooth, sour and spicy but not greasy, it is indeed suitable for appetizers!" ”

He bowed to Zi Xi and turned around to continue preparing the second course.

Xiang Zixi turned around and came to the workbench again, throwing a few potatoes again, Xin Zeyang skillfully took it, peeled it, cut it into pieces, Jin Haoxuan quickly cut the green onion and ginger and other seasonings and prepared it, cut the beef into standard squares, and placed them neatly in order to prepare for Xiang Zixi.

The cooperation of everyone was smooth and extremely smooth, which made all the chefs present secretly admire.

Qian Yingying, who was on the hundredth, rolled her eyes, and when she turned around to get hot oil from Zixi, she suddenly stretched out a foot, ready to trip over to Zixi!

said that it was too late, and then quickly, Xiang Zixi's waist was pressed down suddenly, and the hot oil in his hand flew suddenly in the direction of Jin Haoxuan! Jin Haoxuan seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, grabbed the already heated oil pot with one hand, threw it over, and instantly swept all the hot oil that was spilled in the air, and the hot pot spun around and flew back to Xiang Zixi's hand.

Xiang Zixi had already relieved herself at this time, her waist was twisted, and the thick-black braid was thrown out fiercely!

Snap β€”β€”β€”β€” "Oops! Qian Yingying suddenly covered her face!

"You pariah! How dare you whip me with your braids! Qian Yingying was furious, and was about to rush up to find trouble with Zixi, but was suppressed by her four assistants: "Miss can't!" If you fight now, you'll be disqualified from the competition! ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiang Zixi's mouth, skillfully grabbed the ingredients and main ingredients, and threw them in order. Close the lid and start counting the time.

At this time, the fast-moving chefs also finished the first dish, and they also sent their own dishes just like Xiang Zixi. It's just that their luck is obviously much worse than Xiang Zixi, there are more than a dozen people on the list, but only two continue to stay to prepare the second dish, and the others are all withdrawn and disqualified from the competition.

While waiting for the potatoes to be fully cooked, Xiang Zixi and the other two were not idle, took out a few potatoes from the basket, and slowly played juggling. Jin Haoxuan and Xin Zeyang performed knife work, but Xiang Zixi played magic tricks with a few potatoes. The huge potatoes were originally in her hands, but when she made a mistake with both hands, the potatoes that were originally whole turned into potato chips in an instant, and when she made a mistake with her hands, she turned into one again.

The potatoes in his hand were thrown to Jin Haoxuan, and he took two small potatoes from Xin Zeyang's hands, and knocked them lightly, indicating that the two potatoes had never been cut in their original form, and then with a slight mistake in both hands, the potatoes in his hands were instantly steaming, and they were thrown to the plate by Xiang Zixi, Jin Haoxuan spun and flew over with a flying knife, and the steaming potatoes were cut in an instant, and the heat inside was more emanated, and the entire competition venue was full of potato fragrance!

On the judging platform, the prince of Lingguo said in surprise: "This girl's internal strength is so high? Got that magical egg cooked in an instant? ”

Lin Muyang's eyes were wrong, staring at Xiang Zixi, who was performing in the audience, and said casually: "She doesn't know martial arts!" It was hot that she had prepared a long time ago, but the technique was very fast, and the angle of conversion was very ingenious, so people thought that she was heating it with her hands! ”

The prince of the Kingdom of Ling took a deep look at Lin Muyang: "Taishi, there are a few courtesans in my house, and they are exquisite, I don't know if Taishi is interested?" ”

"Your Highness is kind and understanding, such a rare performance is really rare, don't miss it!" Lin Muyang politely rejected the kindness of the prince of the kingdom of Ling, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of the prince's mouth.

It is the first time in her life that a woman who can make Lin Muyang pay so much attention!

Xiang Zixi's wrist is very flexible, the fingers are slender but very powerful, and the ten-fingered orchid is very eye-catching. Her performance not only attracted the four judges on the judging stand, but even the contestants who participated in the competition.

Everyone was curious about what the chef was doing and what she was doing, and some of the chefs even forgot about their work and watched Zixi's performance!

"Report to Your Highness, the first dish has been completed on the hundredth!" Qian Yingying suddenly stretched out her hand and shouted loudly.

She didn't want Xiang Zixi to steal all the limelight alone!

Xiang Zixi smiled lightly, ended all the magic performances with the last perfect finish, stepped forward, raised his hand and said loudly: "Ninety-nine to complete the second dish, beef stewed potatoes!" ”

As soon as Xiang Zixi's voice fell, Jin Haoxuan quickly got out of the pot and poured all the dishes in the pot that had been fully cooked into the glass bowl that had been prepared a long time ago.

Xiang Zixi gently inserted two small golden umbrellas carved from vegetables on it. At this time, someone had already come over and brought the dishes prepared by Xiang Zixi on a plate, and Qian Yingying's face was almost green on the hundredth.

Princess Ziqing tasted it slowly, and said in surprise: "It's so strange! It's the same thing, but the taste is completely different! The first dish was crispy, sour and spicy, and the appetizer was really good. And this one is full of fragrance and makes people appetizing! It's just that I'm really curious, what the hell is this thing made of? Why haven't you seen it before? ”

Xiang Zixi was just about to answer, but Jin Haoxuan suddenly stepped forward, knelt down on one knee and said: "Back to Her Royal Highness Princess, this is a new variety that my young lady has just cultivated, the raw materials are taken from the deep mountain ginseng fruit, and through many grafting and cultivation, a brand new vegetable has finally been formed, named Potato!" ”

Xiang Zixi was stunned for a moment, I don't know why Jin Haoxuan is lying, this is obviously cultivated by himself with potatoes brought from modern vegetable supermarkets, why does he say that it is a new variety formed by grafting?

Princess Ziqing smiled faintly and said meaningfully: "I see! ”

Jin Haoxuan raised his head slightly, the eyes of the two people met fiercely in the air, and when Xiang Zixi saw it, his heart suddenly became a little uncomfortable. Anyway, that princess covets Jin Haoxuan, this is already a fact! When she followed Lin Muyang to follow them that day, the princess clearly asked Jin Haoxuan to return to her side, it can be seen that the two of them are indeed old acquaintances!

All the chefs in the audience knew that there was a novel vegetable in the world on this day, called potatoes! And it is this potato that has attracted the attention of the four judges present!

King Qi of the Dark Kingdom tasted a bite and was just about to speak, when Lin Muyang suddenly said, "Lord Wang, do you also think this beef stewed potato tastes good?" ”

King Qi laughed meaningfully.

Frankly speaking, Xiang Zixi's cooking skills are really average, very ordinary, and they are definitely far from the cooks in the palace! Even if Xiang Zixi wins with the novelty of the raw materials, it is impossible to hide the fact that the taste is monotonous.

However, Lin Muyang suddenly preemptively hinted that King Qi gave up his speech, and his maintenance of that woman was so great that King Qi had to give him three points of thin noodles.

"Yes, I am very consistent with the opinion of the Taishi, this beef stewed potatoes are fragrant and soft, and they melt in the mouth, and they are really rare and top-notch!" King Qi wiped the corners of his mouth: "I think, I can let No. 99 make the last dish!" ”

"What!" Qian Yingying, who was number one hundred, shouted: "How could that pariah come to this point!" Hmmmβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” her four assistants covered her mouth desperately, if she was allowed to spit out that mouth again, it is estimated that she will really be disqualified from the competition!

Princess Ziqing tasted the dishes presented by Qian Yingying, and immediately admired: "The ingredients are high-quality, noble, flashy but not greasy, it is indeed a first-class dish!" ”

Qian Yingying glanced at Xiang Zi with a calm face.

"Number 100 can continue to prepare the second dish, and β€”β€”β€”β€” No. 99 can also start preparing the last dish!" Princess Ziqing said lightly.

Xiang Zixi breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She knew that if it weren't for Jin Haoxuan forcing the princess to give in her own way just now, she was afraid that she would stop there.

After all, I still know best how much I can do. I'm a thief, not a cook!

However, to be able to come this far, Xiang Zixi is already very satisfied! At the very least, she's managed to let everyone know that there's another vegetable in the world, and it's called potatoes!

Taking a deep breath, Xiang Zi Xi nodded at the same time as Jin Haoxuan and Xin Zeyang, and the three of them turned around again to get the remaining potatoes and prepare the last dish!

"Don't be nervous! Everything will be fine! Jin Haoxuan and Xin Zeyang cheered her up at the same time, gave Zi Xi a confident smile to the two of them, slowly closed his eyes, and kept repeating the production process of the last dish in his mindβ€”β€”β€”β€” pulling out the sweet potato!
