Chapter 1297: Celebrity Chef, I Have Other Career Plans (64) (Page 1/1)
Although Lan Zhaoyu and Fu Qingyu have already arrived at the recording site, the star guests of the support group have not yet arrived because of the tight schedule. But the program team is very good at saving time, and plans to record some cooking videos in advance for editing.
When it comes to the showdown between the two chefs, the rules are simple. The two chefs need to choose the ingredients they want to use on the table to cook, and then hand over the cooked dishes to a review team composed of food critics and a support group composed of celebrities to taste and score.
There is more than one round of duels, which means that there will be fewer and fewer ingredients available on the long table, and the ingredients that have been selected by yourself and the other party cannot be reused, and the difficulty will become higher and higher. At the end of the day, it's likely that two chefs will need to grab the ingredients quickly.
However, grabbing ingredients is not a test for people, and those who have worked in the kitchen for a long time, which one is not quick with his hands and eyes?! The real difficulty is how to make a decent dish with limited ingredients when there are only a few ingredients left on the long table.
Even if there is only a lone potato or a green onion left on the table, both sides will have to rack their brains to make a dish with this limited material. This is the most challenging chef's skills!
However, if it is for the convenience of the last few rounds, try to choose dishes that do not cost materials in the first few rounds, and save ingredients to pass the test smoothly? Not necessarily. Because the saved ingredients are likely to be selected by the opponent, this is actually a fast-paced duel, and Qian Qian figured it out from the beginning.
The program team wanted Fu Qingyu and Lan Zhaoyu to put the big dishes with complex materials at the beginning of the show, first with exquisite dishes as the first small climax, and then the competition for materials as the second breaking point, and the third climax was the duel between the chefs of the two sides when there were not many ingredients left.
Qian Qian, who has been an actor before, of course knows very well that this is a very conventional variety show routine, the rhythm of the whole process is reasonably controlled, and the program team is indeed very experienced in production, which is worthy of being a long-established variety show that is ever-popular.
The preparation was completed quickly, and this time, because all the dishes were made under the camera, the chef needed an assistant, so Qian Qian would also appear in the camera with Fu Qingyu, not like usual, all in the background to help prepare.
Lan Zhaoyu also brought an assistant, a middle-aged chef with a clear face, who looked neat. Qian Qian knew that he was the sous chef in Lan Zhaoyu's shop, a very good chef, with excellent skills, when Xia Yeliang had not resigned before, Qian Qian went to her and met this chef. The middle-aged chef was obviously very happy to see Qian Qian, and greeted Qian Qian in a friendly manner as soon as he came.
Before the recording began, Qian Qian asked 7788 to keep an eye on Lan Zhaoyu, walked around the long table where the ingredients were placed, and then returned to Fu Qingyu and asked, "Aren't you going to see the ingredients?" What do you want to do with the first course? ”
"What do you want to eat?" Fu Qingyu didn't answer, but turned around and asked Qian Qian: "It's almost two o'clock, you must be hungry." You left the store before lunch, didn't you eat lunch? ”
"I ate late for breakfast." Qian Qian looked indifferent: "This morning is Xiao Liang staring at the purchase, we went to the store late, and we didn't have breakfast until ten o'clock." ”
"Then it's time to eat, too." Fu Qingyu moved two steps, stretched his neck and looked at the long table: "There is a Dungeness crab, the quality looks good, do you want to eat crab claws?" There are many varieties of fish, can I make fish soup protein steamed crab claws for you to eat? ”
"Yes." Qian Qian also stretched out his head and glanced at the long table: "But you have to make it for many people to taste, I don't think I can get the crab claws." ”
"One crab, two crab claws, fifteen judges, nothing is enough." Fu Qingyu replied very indifferently: "The crab claws of Dungeness crab are for you to eat, and their share is made up with snow crab legs." ”
Casually, Qian Qian and Fu Qingyu ordered the dishes to be made in the first round. Qian Qian felt that Fu Qingyu's choice of fish soup protein steamed crab claws as the first round of dishes was very reasonable, for no other reason, this dish seemed simple on the surface, but in fact it was very material-intensive.
Cooking fish soup requires several different kinds of precious fish, not including ingredients such as scallops and snails, and the jury is so large that there must not be enough crab on the table, so they will consume a lot of high-end seafood ingredients.
It's better to use it yourself! Qian Qian was ready to help Fu Qingyu grab the ingredients. It's better to use it yourself than to leave it to Lan Zhaoyu. Moreover, this dish is created by Fu Qingyu, it looks simple, but it is actually very complicated, and the processing of crab claws is not as simple as others imagined, but it is very difficult to teach kung fu, Qian Qian thinks that this dish can fully demonstrate Fu Qingyu's strength as a celebrity chef, and it is a very suitable opening dish.
And Fu Qingyu's idea is very simple - his wife didn't eat eggs for breakfast. You have to eat one egg a day to be healthy! If it weren't for him, Xiangxiang would never have remembered that she should drink milk and eat eggs every day. So Xiangxiang really can't leave him, and she can't take good care of herself if she is alone.
Recording soon began. Fu Qingyu and Lan Zhaoyu stood by the stove on both sides of the long table, while Qian Qian and the middle-aged chef stood near their own chef.
The host began to ramble on the opening remarks, but almost no one on the stage paid attention, and the four of them, with eight pairs of eyes, were staring at the long table in front of them, calculating what ingredients they would take for a while.
Qian Qian originally thought that she needed to be quick to grab ingredients in the first round. She was ready to wait for the host's order to be active.
Who knew that she was nervous for a long time, after the host's order was issued, Lan Zhaoyu on the opposite side unexpectedly did not move, nor did he let the assistant next to him act, but smiled at Qian Qian, and made a "please" gesture to her, which meant to let Qian Qian and Fu Qingyu choose the ingredients first.
This seemingly gentlemanly move immediately attracted the host's praise, and he threw it out like money, and praised Lan Zhaoyu for being a celebrity chef and being very personable at any time.
Qian Qian was only slightly stunned, and immediately reacted to the meaning of Lan Zhaoyu's move. This guy is really a bit of a brain, this step is good! This is the first round, the ingredients on the table are very rich, even if Lan Zhaoyu asks Fu Qingyu to choose the ingredients first, the materials he can get are still very rich, let Fu Qingyu choose first, it will not cause him any trouble at all, but can also create his image of a gentleman and generosity.
And this humble move is also a subtle hint that his Lan Zhaoyu's status as a senior Chinese chef, generally speaking, only those with a huge advantage will give in generously in the duel, right?
