748 Yangquan Restaurant Showdown (Part II)
Time passed minute by minute, and he was sweating like rain on the edge of his stove, and on the other hand, Merlin, although he did not make a sound, his sweet sleeping face made the onlookers look unpleasant.
Hum! The only way to be strong is now, and the big one will make you taste failure!
Almost everyone's fans are fantasizing about the same scene.
They believe that Jidi can defeat this kid who came out of nowhere, because he is Jidi!
This kind of blind new appointment, to be honest, really made the other chefs present feel envious.
It's a pity, perhaps because of their talent, among them, the highest achievement is only worthy of stepping into the threshold of a senior chef, and more people are still dangling at the level of an intermediate chef.
It would be absolutely deceptive to say that you are not envious and jealous.
But now, these chefs look at Jidi's faces, full of sympathy and helplessness.
and the first technique, they who have worked with him for a long time naturally understand, no matter how you look at it, there will be no change, and Merlin on the side, his cooking skills, maybe he can let himself learn from it.
So, with this thought, almost all the chefs of Yangquan Restaurant, their eyes converged on Merlin's side.
And it was this look that made each of them show an expression of disbelief.
Absolutely perfect cooking, as well as the sauce ratio used to marinate the meat.
Every skill that Merlin has come out of has terrified the chefs present, and this technique seems to have been precipitated for tens or even hundreds of years. Is it really something that the teenager in front of him can use?
Fight against such monsters. In addition to tasting the bitterness of failure. There will be no other results!
Even after Merlin ran to the side to rest, none of the chefs present thought that he would eventually lose to Jidi.
There are too many differences in the level of skill, and what is the relationship between the meat ball that has not been seen by everyone until now and the theme of 'sun'?
No one could understand, not even Abbey, who couldn't see the purpose of the meat balls on Merlin's table, which were skewered with an iron frame.
This must be roasted on a fire. But if you don't bake it now, isn't it...... It's too late, right?
Of all the people present, perhaps, only Abbe was really on Merlin's side.
Looking at the teenager across from her, who was always working hard to cook, Abbe was really worried, she didn't want to see her sweetheart fail.
But if Merlin doesn't get up again, the allotted time will come!
Hurry up, Merlin!
Perhaps it was Abbe's prayers that worked. Or maybe it's just Merlin's enough sleep, after stretching. He opened his eyes leisurely, and at the same time, looked at the referee on the side.
"Is it time?"
It was a very simple question, but it was answered very seriously by the referee.
"Well, it's time for a stick of incense."
"Well, I'm going to start the final work."
With a confident smile on the corner of his mouth, Merlin walked to his stove, and ignored the crowd of people who kept booing, he just waved his hand to Abbe, motioning for the other party to come up and help him.
"Merlin, is there really no problem?"
Abbe stepped forward and looked at Merlin worriedly.
"Rest assured, if there are no accidents, victory is already in hand."
Merlin smiled easily, his body was exuding a very strong confidence at the moment. Perhaps sensing this confidence, Abbe finally let go of the worries in his heart.
"Yes, I believe in you."
The girl's smile made the whole venue fall into a momentary sluggishness.
But in the next second, many FFF members who reacted raised the torches in their hands one by one, shouting that they wanted to rush towards Merlin.
"Show affection must die!"
"Bear the wrath of my big FFF group!"
"You're brother and sister! Brother and sister don't understand?! ”
"My eyes, my 24K pure titanium dog eyes!"
"Remember, if you are proud in love, you must be disappointed in the game!!!!"
……
If it weren't for the people at Yangquan Restaurant who saw the situation and immediately stopped the people who came forward, maybe this game would have ended here.
"So, are you done?"
Merlin didn't pay attention to the shouts of the people behind him, at this moment, he just turned his head and looked at Ji Di on the other side.
"Humph!"
Faced with Merlin's question, Jidi did not choose to answer. However, the plate he was holding in his hands had already explained a qiē.
"Since that's the case, then ask Master Shiquan to come down and comment."
Merlin was smiling all the time, and by the aroma wafting from the gap between the plate and the lid, he could already judge the ingredients and cooking methods used by the other party.
It's just that...... There's no way to beat yourself with this kind of cuisine.
Merlin muttered to himself.
Originally, he was only six or seven percent confident, but now, he can be completely sure of the fact that he is about to win this duel.
It's not arrogance, it's not pride, it's just the difference in quantity and quality between the two dishes.
"Hehehe, it looks like you've all finished your cooking."
With the arrival of Shiquan, the hall, which was still a little noisy, began to slowly become quiet.
Everyone is looking forward to the moment when the Master of Ten Perfection will say that rule!
"Well, welcome to Yangquan Restaurant as usual, and thank you for watching the duel between two young chefs in our restaurant."
Ten smiled, and at the same time, as everyone expected, announced a rule that would satisfy everyone.
"Next, naturally it comes to the tasting part, as usual, in order to show fairness, we will select ten spectators to join the ranks of the judges, and the selection method is to draw lots."
"The little note that was handed out to you can now be taken out, and it has a number written on it. There's nothing wrong with that. Just report the number you have in the next draw. Congratulations, you can enjoy the skills of two excellent chefs. ”
Obviously, this is not the first time that Yangquan Restaurant has done this, and all kinds of details have been handled properly.
And with the end of the draw, a total of ten people with six men and four women were invited to sit in the judges' positions.
"With me, eleven people in all. And the one of you who gets six of the votes is the winner of this showdown. After Shiquan finished speaking, he looked at Ji Di and Merlin, "So, who will come first?" ”
"Me!" "Him!"
Jidi and Merlin's words rang out almost at the same time, and what they wanted to say was exactly the same.
Merlin pointed to Jidi, and Jidi raised his hand aloft.
"Hehehe. Looks like Merlin wants to be the finale. ”
Shiquan glanced at the iron frame that Merlin and Abbe were holding at the same time. His eyes were full of contemplation, and he was also quite curious about what Merlin would cook.
Of course, it doesn't mean that Shiquan is not interested in Jidi's cooking, he wants to know what kind of realm his apprentice has reached now.
"You'll see it soon."
Merlin held up the iron frame in his hand and said with an unfathomable expression.
And hearing his words, and the love that had already calmed down, was almost violent again at this moment.
"You!"
"And the first!"
Needless to say, the one who prevented the first, was naturally perfect.
The chef doesn't have much to ask for his state of mind, but if he gets too angry, he will behave out of his way, and the ingredients that could have been successfully processed will end up in a pile of garbage.
I hope that Merlin can promote the first, not let the first sink, so a timely reminder is very necessary.
“…… I see, Master of the Perfect. ”
Under the gaze of Shiquan's majestic eyes, he could only choose to compromise in the end.
He placed the plate on the table, and then lifted the cover over it.
- Boom!
A golden glow rises into the sky, a visual effect that only Grand Chefs and the best senior chefs can achieve.
In the entire Yangquan Restaurant, there will be no more than four people who can do this, plus the Ten Perfections and the Rank......
And now, in front of everyone, the table has shown its top strength, which is almost comparable to that of a super chef.
"This?! This is?! ”
"That's right!"
As the golden light dissipated, the dishes on the plate finally appeared in front of everyone at this moment.
In the center is a coffee-colored disc with small spines, surrounded by yellow petal-like ornaments...... No! It's also delicious!
Looking at the scene on the plate, all the referees, including Abbe, who was standing with Merlin, showed shocked expressions.
Because......
The pattern on the plate is clearly the sunflower that can often be seen on the edge of the field!
Sunflowers, flowers whose flower surface is always facing the sun......
It's true...... It really matches the theme 'Sun'!
"Well done!"
"That's amazing!"
"And the first is really a genius, such an idea can be thought of."
…… At this time, the people around finally saw Ji Di's work clearly, followed by their tsunami-like cheers.
"Thematically, it's perfectly fine, but you know, what is the most important thing in cooking."
"It's the taste!"
Even now, Shiquan is still teaching and grading.
Although, he could already smell the fragrance, and he could almost feel that he had brought out the ingredients to a certain extent.
"So, let's start tasting."
The 'sunflowers' made by Ji Yi were divided into 11 equal parts, and then each judge began to taste the one on his plate.
…… What does that feel like?!
Even if the dishes are overestimated, but now, among the eleven judges, ten are still directly immersed in the illusion of the food.
The only one who hasn't fallen into the illusion is the teacher of Shiquan and the first!
"Yes, you're better off than you were a month ago."
Shiquan opened his eyes and looked at Ji Di with appreciation.
"Thank you, teacher!"
Compared with the praise of the other ten laymen, Ji Di obviously wants to hear the praise of the whole.
But. Look at the satisfied smiles of the other ten. and the first also admitted. I got great satisfaction in my heart.
Next, as long as you defeat Merlin, one qiē, it's over......
At the same time, he looked at Merlin on the side.
He's waiting for the other party's cooking, the other party's meat dishes, which haven't gone too far.
"So. Next, let's start with Merlin's cuisine. ”
When the other ten judges woke up from the illusion, they did not hesitate, and then announced Merlin's food tasting.
He was staring at Merlin like Jiyi, waiting, waiting for Merlin's next move.
Merlin, on the other hand, did not let Shiquan wait for a long time, and after smiling lightly, he took out a burning firewood from under the stove next to him.
"My name is 'Sun'."
Think a random name with the same theme is relevant?
How could it be so simple!
What sun? Sun, your sister!
What we see. It's just a lump of raw meat on the iron frame!
Everyone is complaining, and even worse. There was also a deliberate mocking laugh.
"Merlin ......"
"It doesn't matter."
In the face of the ridicule of everyone behind him, the smile on Merlin's face did not change in the slightest, and he even had the afterglow to comfort Abbe on the side.
"It's true that the current appearance is a ball of meat, but in the next second, it's completely different."
With that, he moved the firewood in his hand towards the meat ball, and wanted to touch the meat ball with the flame on the firewood.
Just listen to the 'boom'!
The whole meat ball actually burned like this!
In less than a second, the flames grew larger with the mass of flesh, and finally, what appeared in front of everyone was such a completely burning, like a fireball.
"What the hell is going on?!"
"Oh my God, what a horrible dish!"
"Is that what people can eat? Just getting close to it was like being scorched. ”
The people who were still laughing at it were intimidated by the cooking methods that Ataku came out of in a blink of an eye.
That kind of momentum of opening and closing, it is really ...... It's horrible!
"This form is indeed very similar to the sun."
Looking at the iron frame held by Ah Zhai, as well as the flame meat ball that was running on the iron frame, Shiquan couldn't help but be a little shocked.
But......
"But then we won't be able to taste it."
As Shiquan said, it is difficult to get close to the meat balls that burn all the time, let alone take the barbecue from it and taste it slowly.
"Don't worry, the sun isn't fully formed yet."
As if he had already guessed the perfect idea, Merlin just smiled at this time and made a silent gesture at the same time.
"Then I'll see."
Not only Shiquan, but the other ten judges, even Ji Di, were a little looking forward to Merlin's cooking at this time.
The 'sun' that has not yet been completed already has such courage, so what kind of scene will the 'sun' be when it is completed......
Time passed minute by minute, but with a cup of tea, the flame on the ball of flesh began to slowly extinguish.
When the flames on the lump of flesh disappeared completely, what appeared in front of everyone was a completely dark thing.
"It's a pity, it's completely scorched."
"Hehehe, let you come up with this scary thing."
The people in the hall were still irresponsibly voicing their thoughts. Arrogant prejudice, they completely ignore the subtle changes in the atmosphere on the field.
"Don't you think Dalian is not playing enough? Smell it closely, is that the smell of burning?! ”
Finally, there was an expert guy who couldn't see it, he pulled the mocking man to the side, and pointed to the iron frame held by Ah Zhai in the distance.
"Would anyone who can come up with this dish ignore the problem of over-burning flames?!"
This person's questioning was sonorous and powerful, and more importantly, at the moment when his voice fell, Ah Zhai also started the next steps.
Place one end of the frame on the ground while gently rubbing the other end of the frame with your hands together.
As Ataku moved, the black carbon-like object attached to the barbecue began to fall off one after another, revealing a real 'sun' that was even more golden than ......the sunflower in the previous work!
That's right, it's the sun!
Ignoring the sun that no longer radiates light, warms everyone, and feeds life!
"Oo!!!!oo
Such a work, even if it is the people who are in their hearts, have to sigh at this time, and more importantly, the refreshing aroma, even if you stand at the edge of the hall, can still smell it really.
Color and fragrance, and the first defeat!
That's a fact that can be seen without anyone commenting at all, and the referee on the stage doesn't seem to intend to distort the facts.
I just don't know if the taste of this 'sun' can be as good as its surface......
The eleven judges, including Shiquan, couldn't help but swallow their saliva one by one at the thought of being able to eat this delicious dish right away.
It was a reaction that would not have occurred at all when faced with the dishes made by Jidi, and when the judges saw such a thing, it was as if they had already guessed the result.
Myself...... Lost......
As he expected, the next tasting can really be said to be a carnival.
"Oh!!!! This, this is Peking duck! ”
"And here, the smell of beef sauce!"
"The deliciousness of fish-flavored shredded pork!"
"And here, here's the grilled fish!"
……
Merlin's 'sun' turned out to be a layer of delicacy wrapped in a layer of delicacy, and the first layer of charred things was just a protective film he made out of the remaining minced meat......
As a result, there is no need to say more.
Look at the sincere smiles on the faces of the judges, everyone, and the results have already been obtained.
It's not that the cooking skills of the Dietetic are too bad, but that ...... His opponent is a demon at all!!!
Those who support Jidi are constantly excusing Jidi.
And Merlin's supporters are pilgrimage to look at the boy not far away, such a cuisine, such imagination, perhaps, the Chinese cuisine world that has been calm for a long time, will bloom her unique charm again because of the appearance of this teenager! (To be continued......)
