Chapter 134: Analysis
The two of them each came to the judge's seat with their own noodles.
Walking in front of them, the three judges were actually two old men and an old woman.
This is the first time Gao Dian has met this old woman, and she is the only female pastry chef here.
"You're Gao Dian?"
The old woman asked first.
Gao Dian was stunned, this old woman knows herself?
Lu Caixia naturally knew Gao Dian, the person who defeated her apprentice, Lu Caixia also went out of her way to find out.
"You know me?" Gao Dian asked.
Lu Caixia nodded kindly and said, "I've heard of it." ”
Gao Dian answered, and Lu Caixia didn't talk to Gao Dian too much.
However, Lu Caixia paid a little more attention to Gao Dian, and she really wanted to see what was so good about this young man who won his apprentice.
"Alright, each of you will come up with your own pastry." The old man on the far left spoke.
Gao Dian and Yu Haohu each put their pastries on the stove, one was a big white steamed bun, and the other was a roasted golden wife cake.
Regarding the origin of the wife's cake, it is said that it was invented during the uprising of Zhu Yuanzhang in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty.
Of course, at first, this kind of cake was made only to satisfy hunger, and the name was not called wife cake.
Regarding the origin of the name of the wife's cake, [According to legend, in Guangzhou, there is a time-honored teahouse founded in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, which is famous for all kinds of dim sum and cakes; One day, a dim sum chef from Chaozhou in the teahouse brought all kinds of signature refreshments in the store home for his wife to eat, but after his wife ate it, not only did he not praise the dim sum in the store for being delicious, but even said with disgust: "The dim sum in the teahouse is so plain, nothing can compare to my mother's dim sum winter melon corners!" ”
After hearing this, the master was naturally unconvinced, so he asked his wife to make "winter melon horns" for him to taste! My wife used winter melon puree, sugar, and flour to make a browned and unique "winter melon horn"; As soon as this Chaozhou master ate it, the flavor was really sweet and delicious, and he couldn't help but praise his wife's dim sum!
The next day, the Chaozhou master brought the "winter melon corner" back to the teahouse for everyone to taste, but the teahouse owner was full of praise after eating, and asked who made the dim sum in which teahouse? The masters said: "It was made by the wife of Chaozhou!" So the boss casually said that this was "Chaozhou wife cake", and asked the Chaozhou master to improve it and sell it in the teahouse, and the result was very well received! Hence the name "wife's cake". (Excerpted from the Internet.) )】
The wife cake made by Yu Haohu looks golden and attractive on the surface, with some black sesame seeds on the face.
On the other hand, Gaodian's steamed bun does not have so many details, it is just a white and chubby steamed bun.
The three judges are all more interested in steamed buns.
Lu Caixia knows some things about Gao Dian, and the other two judges are interested in daring to make steamed buns in this arena, presumably this steamed bun must be extraordinary.
The three are all top pastry chefs in the industry, what pastry haven't you seen? In their eyes, there is not much difference between the wife cake and the steamed bun itself.
"How about we try this steamed bun first?" The old man sitting on the far right proposed.
"Yes."
"Exactly."
The other two chimed in.
…………
In the audience, the opponents who had been defeated by Gao Dian with steamed buns were watching the game.
Among them are Zhang Lan and Lou Xiangpeng, the two of them are sitting together, Lou Xiangpeng is a little excited in his heart, it feels good to sit with the goddess.
"Which of them do you think will win?" Zhang Lan turned his head sideways and asked Lou Xiangpeng.
is also a defeated general under Gao Dian, and the two have a common topic.
Lou Xiangpeng was slightly excited in his heart, the goddess took the initiative to talk to herself, alas, she was so happy.
For a while, Lou Xiangpeng suddenly felt that being defeated by Gao Dian did not seem to be a bad thing.
On the surface, Lou Xiangpeng made a contemplative gesture and said: "I have heard of Yu Haohu, a very powerful young pastry chef. Although it is not as good as those perverts, the strength will not be too different. Even against those people, Yu Haohu still has a chance to win.
But I don't like this guy very much, it's so arrogant and arrogant, it seems that everyone else in the world is rubbish except him. ”
Zhang Lan nodded, in fact, the gap between the young pastry chefs is not so big, and the perverts that Lou Xiangpeng said are just a joke. No one has pulled the gap in strength to the extent that it is an insurmountable chasm, and those who can enter the top 32 are not far behind.
"However......" Lou Xiangpeng's voice changed, "I'm still more optimistic about Gao Dian winning." ”
"Why? Do you think Gao Dian's strength has reached that level? Or do you dislike Yu Haohu? Zhang Lan asked with some curiosity.
Lou Xiangpeng said: "Although I personally hate Yu Haohu, I also hope that Gao Dian can win. However, I am optimistic about Gao Dian, not because of my personal preference. ”
After a pause, Yu Haohu lowered his voice and said, "You also saw it just now, the steamed buns made by Gao Dian are different from those usually made." ”
Zhang Lan nodded, of course she saw it, not only did she see it, but she saw it very clearly. She has been paying attention to Gao Dian, and it can be said that she has not missed any movements.
It's not because Zhang Lan was defeated by Gao Dian that she fell in love with Gao Dian or something, the reason why she paid attention to Gao Dian was very simple.
Know yourself and know your opponent to win all battles!
She felt that there would definitely be a chance to compete with Gao Dian in the future, she lost this time, and she didn't want to lose next time.
"It's really different, not only do we use more ingredients, but it's also more complicated to make." Zhang Lan said.
"That's right, that's why I think Gao Dian can win. You think, the white-flour steamed buns he made before could win us, but the steamed buns he made this time are obviously more complicated. Lou Xiangpeng said.
I don't know why, when he said this, Lou Xiangpeng suddenly felt a little sad.
It's that he doesn't deserve it.
Zhang Lan was thoughtful, and soon she said: "What you said makes sense, but you forgot a little. That is, we have never seen this kind of steamed bun, do you really think it will be better than the white flour steamed bun he made? ”
Lou Xiangpeng asked rhetorically: "Do you think Gao Dian is the kind of person who uses noodles that are not as good as white flour steamed buns to participate in the competition?" ”
Zhang Lan hesitated and said, "It should be ...... No way. ”
"You can remove the should, I'm sure, Gao Dian will have other pastries, very simple logic. How many types of pastry do I need to pass the Level 3 pastry chef exam? Lou Xiangpeng asked.
"At least three." Zhang Lan said, suddenly realized.
So, until now, he has only shown two kinds of pastries, and what he makes today is also steamed buns, although with some changes. He's sure there are other pastries, but he never showed them.
I think the reason why he didn't show it is probably because his other pastries are not as good as the steamed buns and steamed buns he made. Lou Xiangpeng said.
Zhang Lan nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but what if his other pastries are not lost to steamed buns or steamed buns?" ”
Lou Xiangpeng thought for a while and said, "Then he is the biggest pervert." ”
