Chapter 42: The Victory and Defeat Have Been Decided (Part I)

Foster's cooking competition was accepted by Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi naturally didn't pay attention to this matchup, and Foster also seemed full of confidence:

"Boy, don't say I'm bullying you. In order to show fairness, www.biquge.info the method of the competition is up to you. "As arrogant as ever, it was as simple as if he could flick the bugs off his body with just a touch of his fingers.

"Well, since you said so, I might as well obey my fate. Listening to the tone just now, you are quite good at making high-grade dishes, right, it is better than the dishes of the banquet dinner, preparing dishes for five people, including appetizers, soups, main dishes and desserts, and completing them in two hours!

Listening to Xiao Yi's test conditions, Foster was obviously stunned, first of all, in his impression, he never looked down on Xiao Yi and his restaurant that was going to open in the civilian area, whether it was from the perspective or from the technical point of view, he didn't think that Xiao Yi could be compared with himself. But as the saying goes, 'connoisseurs will know if there is one as soon as they make a move', after all, he is a chef at the level of a craftsman, and he can naturally see that the competition conditions that Xiao Yi just proposed are very professional, not to mention that the meal distribution system and the structure of the classification order of dishes that are only used on the table of high-level nobles are not something that anyone can understand, or several restrictions seem to be casual but are specially built around the conditions of a restaurant chef.

You must know that a four-course meal for five people is equivalent to a total of 20 dishes, if it is a banquet of the nature of an ordinary banquet, it must have already begun to prepare before the guests arrive, and like this, only in the case of the restaurant will appear on the spot, only two hours will not be easily solved by ordinary chefs, at least he has already given Xiao Yi a certain apprenticeship level is completely impossible.

In addition, the method of judging adopts mutual reliance, which means that the performance of the other party is evaluated by the two parties participating in the competition or the person representing the interests of both parties, which is completely dependent on the degree of compliance with fairness and industry ethics by both parties, because it is not uncommon for the competent factors to deliberately make judgments in favor of oneself against one's will, and secondly, because it is not the elder in the professional guild who has been responsible for evaluation and rating for many years. Commissioner, it is difficult to quantify the performance of the two sides into a measure that can be directly compared, so the result is often half a catty and indistinguishable result, unless the strength of one of the parties is much higher than that of the opponent to make the outcome obvious, and Xiao Yi, who took the initiative to propose these conditions, actually did not fight for too many advantages for himself.

Sensing this, Foster's heart began to feel a little unsteady! Could it be that the little hairy kid in front of him in front of him was so sure that he could easily defeat himself with such a flexible scale!

But in the blink of an eye, he put this idea behind him, after all, he is a craftsman-level chef certified by the chef guild, although he has not been able to break through in the level for more than ten years, but the hard work he put into cooking back then is by no means what the opponent in front of him can achieve at this age, and he no longer thinks about it, and swaggers to follow Xiao Yi into the back kitchen.

After passing through a very strange outer compartment and entering the large kitchen, Foster and his group of apprentices were shocked again, which made the hobbies who were traveling together show a little disdain, this kitchen they also frequented during this time, and they also had to watch Xiao Yi operate how to cook in training courses that needed to be tasted, and in their eyes, this kitchen was nothing special, just these chefs who were said to have worked in high-end restaurants came in with an expression like a bun, just what qualifications did they have to be so arrogant in front of their own boss!

But because the hobbies are laymen, their evaluation of Foster is actually not very fair, because at this moment, the more high-level chefs will be shocked by Xiao Yi's kitchen, unlike the hazy and mysterious common magic lamps, which emit white light on the walls. The magic lamp's light intensity is very high, even if it is now night, any corner of the entire kitchen is illuminated, coupled with the orderly placement of various equipment and storage shelves full of ingredients will make any chef have the desire to try, far more than the general restaurant kitchen floor space makes the aisle and operation space extremely spacious, just imagine in the mind feel that in this kind of environment without worrying about turning around or walking will accidentally bump into the companion work how comfortable it would be.

Not to mention, after watching Xiao Yi generously demonstrate to Foster how to operate kitchen equipment that they had never seen before, their brains were completely stunned.

For example, the strange pipe that can flow out water as soon as you turn on the switch not only solves the pain of preparing kitchen water in advance every day, but also the pipe is still separated from hot and cold water, and even the dishwashing sink next to it has hot water directly supplied, so you definitely don't have to worry about freezing your hands in winter!

...... The ability to light a stove without burning firewood, according to the young boss, uses a fire-based magic crystal nucleus as fuel, oh my God, isn't that something that only magic professions use?

...... And that boxy metal thing turned out to be an oven, why didn't you see the big and tall hearth? What! The fire circle and magic pattern bake the food directly inside, and the knob on the outside can control the temperature change at any time! Are you sure this is not telling a mythological story?

...... A machine that stirs the dough by itself......

With Xiao Yi's in-depth introduction and demonstration, not to mention the eager expressions of these apprentices and ordinary chefs, even Foster has a feeling that if he can cook in this kitchen, it will be a very happy thing for any chef. Maybe I was a little too harsh on this young boss just now, even if he won for a while, he would save him a little face, maybe he would be more convincing and courteous to me after seeing my strength, maybe it would be a good choice to work here!

On the other hand, Xiao Yi took out his clothes directly from his own space, and completed the costume change by dividing it by two, only to see a dress similar to the style of male aristocratic clothes worn close to Xiao Yi, without too many breasts and exaggerated tassel pleats, it looked extremely simple and capable, and a snow-white apron was tied around his waist and integrated with a kitchen outfit, which made Xiao Yi's originally not very prominent height suddenly look a lot taller. A pure black turban completely covered the back of his head and tied a knot, and the contrast of colors and serious expression set off the momentum of extreme concentration.

Foster and Xiao Yi's eyes looked at each other slightly, and they suddenly felt the confidence and majesty revealed in the other party's not-so-sharp gaze, and that feeling made him go back to the time when he was studying art in a trance, and this kind of momentum can only appear in his teacher's teacher.

Shaking his head and forcing himself out of the illusion, Foster felt that his heart was already a little messy, but his fighting spirit was also fully aroused by the self-esteem of a high-level chef, and at this moment, he decided to do his best, because his instinct told him that the young man opposite him was worth it.

After a short period of preparation, Zod's "start" Under the prompt, Foster and Xiao Yi, who were standing in front of the two desks, started together, Foster really deserved to be a master chef, the movements of his hands were very skillful, the same ingredients were broken down and cut into small parts of different shapes in front of his eyes, and after a while, he had already completed the preparation of the first dish, with a low cry from among his many disciples next to him, Foster was also very satisfied with his state today, perhaps because of his fighting spirit, he even felt that his state today had surpassed his previous peak performance。

"It seems that it is very beneficial to have the opportunity to have more high-level duels, maybe my level can go up by one level!" When he wiped his hands with a cloth towel and prepared for the preparation of his next dish, Foster, who was in a good mood, turned his head to look at Xiao Yi's progress for a while, but this time he couldn't turn his neck back.

Because he happened to see Xiao Yi's cutting and finishing action, the flowing knife almost made him unable to capture the trajectory of the blade, and after the knife was closed, he wiped it with a cloth and placed the knife directly on the board, indicating that Xiao Yi had completely finished the cutting process, what kind of speed is this! Foster realized that the exclamation just now was not for him, because if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that he had already completed the cutting of all four dishes with the effort of just processing the ingredients needed for one dish, and judging from the situation in front of the other party's table that was covered with several boards, the degree of completion was absolutely undoubted.

Shocked, completely shocked, Foster, who regarded the level gap as extremely important, naturally understood that for a chef, no basic skill could be faked, and he had completely lost in terms of knife speed alone.

Am I going to lose? Forster couldn't help but wonder in his mind.

Do you want to give up? No, never! He didn't give up when he was ridiculed for not being a disciple for four years, he didn't give up when he was scolded for being a waste when he was swept away by his employer, and he didn't give up when he was hungry in a leaky house, so he won't give up today!

Resolutely turning back, concentrating all the senses and powers of the eyes, nose, and hands, and completely devoting his mind to the step-by-step process of his mind, frying, stir-frying, stewing, and roasting, the samples were presented, and it was not until he put the last dish on the plate that he came back to his senses, as if he had just entered a very magical state, which made his senses sharper and more flexible than usual.

Knowing very well that his craft would have a very obvious improvement after this training, Foster, who was ecstatic in his heart, returned to his previous state of full confidence, which made him ignore the fact that Xiao Yi, who was next to him when he had just finished it, seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time.

"It's a pleasure! No matter what the result of this competition is, I will remember your name!Come on, I'll let you taste my craft first!" Foster said excitedly, but in exchange for Xiao Yi's coldness.

"It's a pity that the winner has already been decided, and there is no need to try your food at all!"
