Chapter 748: Pre-Match Preparations
"Not necessarily! I don't think it's capable!"
"Not bad. Not to mention his comeback more than ten years later, even back then (referring to when Zheng Rentu was the master of the chef), under our constraints, he couldn't do many things in Yaotai. Someone agreed.
"Now, he just wants to practice, so Yaotai has to cooperate with it!"
"I've seen enough hanging, now the high-level of Yaotai is very protective of him!" Some people gloated.
"Perhaps, people are trying to keep it secret?"
"The possibility of this is not ruled out. Even then, not all of us knew what he did, let alone now, so it would be wise for him not to take action!"
"But, then, it will be difficult for us to get a sense of his depth. "There are concerns.
"Well, it's not all good for us. "Someone is disdainful.
"What do you mean by that?" asked several people in unison, surprised.
"The so-called 'music does not leave the mouth, the fist does not leave the hand', this cooking technique, similar to it, also needs practice to make perfect. In order to keep it secret, he did not touch the kitchenware for a long time...... Hehe, there will inevitably be mistakes when the time comes!"
When the other seven chefs heard this, they all smiled with relief on their faces, as if they were already in the winning cooking competition in the near future.
Finally, the day of the much-anticipated cooking competition has arrived. On this day, in front of the Yaotai Gatehouse, many people gathered early. Some people really want to go in and watch it at all costs, and some people just come over to join in the fun. Of course, those with status and status will definitely not be crowded together with these many ordinary people. Because, they have a dedicated VIP access as well as VIP seats.
This time, Dugu Tianfeng finally got together with his apprentices and grandchildren rarely. Of course, there is definitely an element of concern for the outcome of the game. But, more importantly, Dugu Tianfeng didn't want to miss the perfect opportunity to taste food during the competition. Because, Dugu Tianfeng knows that only in the extremely intense competition process will the chef's potential be completely stimulated, and he can make a more peak delicacy than usual.
As soon as I walked into the competition venue, I was shocked by the magnificent hall building. This huge building, which can accommodate more than 10,000 people, is definitely not inferior to the most modern large-scale stadium on the planet. It seems that the wisdom of human beings is really infinite! To be able to build a building of this scale without the assistance of any modern machinery really amazes someone who has crossed over!
Soon, the huge hall was already crowded. Except for a few of those of high status, everyone else stood. But, even so, everyone was in a surging mood and emotional. Because, those who can come in are considered lucky. More people are now wandering anxiously outside the halls!
There is no doubt that this game is the home game for the eight chefs of the Eight Restaurants. So, they don't need to be familiar with the environment at all. It wasn't until the start of the competition that the eight chefs walked in from the contestants' tunnel with a large group of chef-level players.
Seeing Dugu Tianfeng, Piao Wu and Zheng Rentu, the three of them had already come to the scene. The eight chefs couldn't help but smile smugly. Because, this shows that their opponents seem to be lacking in confidence. Otherwise, why wait here?
However, after a closer look, these eight chefs couldn't help but be confused. Because, the three people in front of them came almost empty-handed. There was really nothing left except for a tray covered with a black cloth in front of him, which looked like the ingredients for the game.
"Could it be that they want to just give up the game?" the eight chefs had doubts in their hearts almost at the same time.
"No, if they want to give up or admit defeat, then why do they need to make such a big move? Even if they want to ruin their reputation, they don't need to make such a big and vigorous noise, right?" Soon, the eight chefs rejected their conjectures. But it is precisely because of this that they are more and more aware of the true intentions of their opponents.
"No matter, let's put on a good performance first!" The eight chefs are all masters and know that the first impression on the judges and the audience is very important. Therefore, they are very decisive to abandon the entanglement in their hearts!
Soon, the judges and the audience were dazzled. Because, these eight chefs acted almost at the same time.
Someone shows off their sword skills. The cold light shimmered, and then everyone was surprised to see pieces as thin as cicada's wings or as thin as hair. Not to mention the people of this other world, they are stunned to even see the absence of a trace. This speed, this effect, is definitely three points stronger than the modern machines on the highly technologically advanced earth.
Someone shows off the carving method. Just listen to the sound of "sirp", and then a vivid picture appears on the various ingredients. The most shocking thing is that one chef actually carved a piece of tofu into an eagle with wings fluttering in just a few breaths. Even the feathers are clearly visible.
In addition, there are also people who show off their basic skills in other aspects. For example, top pot, turn spoon, etc. Obediently, look at the people, the top of the pot, not only ensures that the heating is even, but also does not spill out, the spoon, pushing, pulling, turning, turning, is more flexible than the palm of ordinary people's hands.
Of course, there are many things that are difficult to perform, such as the control of the heat, the skill of feeding, thickening and pouring juice, and so on. However, there is one scene that impresses me without a trace, that is, these eight chefs actually have the ability to show "jumping in the oil". Because, in this oriental cooking, "frying" is quite commonly used. But "frying" is also the most difficult to control the heat. Because the temperature of the oil is too high, it is easy to burn due to overheating. The so-called "jump in oil" is to make the ingredients in the boiling oil constantly tumble and jump at regular intervals, so as to eliminate the possibility of burning.
Ordinary cooks, when "frying", are auxiliary tools that constantly turn in the boiling oil. But the approach of these eight chefs is different. In order to make the audience see more clearly, these eight people even tilted the iron pot. However, the boiling oil in the pot seems to be covered by a transparent film, and there is not a trace of it flowing outside, and the ingredients in the pot can also rotate at high speed one by one and jump out of the oil surface from time to time without being turned.
When you look at it without a trace, you know: these eight chefs are all extraordinary. Because, the magical scene just now was undoubtedly achieved with the help of not weak internal forces.
