105, the most lovesick can't stay
Roast chicken, but it's just a skin water bath, hanging on the stove and roasting. As long as there is no problem with the spice ratio, the taste is not bad.
But this time it was clear that there was a problem for both sides, that is, how to make a roast chicken in 20 minutes, which was very difficult.
Even if you take the ordinary road, you can't make roast chicken at all, and even if you get it, you can't call it roast chicken.
This is actually quite embarrassing, but Brother Zhang has a unique skill of cheating, which is a recipe developed for the fox who is anxious to eat chicken.
Originally, it was just a simplified version of roast chicken, but I didn't expect it to become a classic secret menu of Chang'an Lane milk tea shop.
The meal is fast, delicious, and easy to make.
You only need to smear the outside of the processed chicken with a layer of honey plum powder and soy sauce water-mixed juice, then pass a light oil, then hang the chicken on the oil pan and pour it down, a spoonful from the chicken belly into a spoonful of chicken skin, wait until the skin changes color, and then put it on the stove, and smoke it with fragrant wood and dried fruits.
This operation is 20 minutes to ensure that the meal is served, and the flavor is special, strictly speaking, it is a lot of roast chicken, but the taste is really good, the chicken skin is burnt and crispy outside, the chicken is not for eating that bite of tenderness but for eating that strand of chewing, fragrant, salty, sweet, sour, both satisfying and full.
Peter, who was still doing things next to him, saw that Brother Zhang had begun to smoke the chicken with a strong fire, and he didn't understand that this roast chicken was ...... That can also be called roast chicken? This is how crispy chicken and smoked chicken are made, right?
But now is not the time to focus on others, because there are less than five minutes left, and you may not be able to complete the production in five minutes.
However, Peter is also a young leader in the chef world, and he saw that he was about to finish, so he simply came to Brother Zhang with the chicken, and slipped the chicken into Brother Zhang's hot oil with a bang.
Brother Xiao Zhang glanced up at him, and probably understood his intentions, but he didn't stop it, after all, if he can think of this method at this time, he can be regarded as a talent.
While the chicken was being fried at high temperatures, Peter began to play tricks by putting all the ready-made seasonings in the pan, stir-frying, and then starting to thicken them.
When it was almost ready, he took out the chicken in the hot oil and passed it through the hot paste, hung it on the hook, quickly used kitchen paper to absorb the excess water on the head, and used the residual temperature of the chicken and oil to tighten the juice twice, the color was so bright, at first glance it looked like a real roast chicken.
Then he began to slice the roast chicken, like a BJ roast duck, and finally, with less than a minute left, he put the chicken on the stove with an iron plate and turned on the steelmaking mode.
In less than a minute, he and Brother Xiao Zhang ate almost at the same time, the two glanced at each other, saw the "roast chicken" they made and looked at each other's products, and laughed tacitly.
Neither of the chickens of the two is roast chicken, but now it's actually not more authentic than whose roast chicken is in the end, anyway, everyone is not authentic, they are all strange methods, so everyone just spells the taste.
Compared to the roast chicken for two people, Peter's roast chicken is more like an iron plate flavor, because the cooking time is short, so the juice is retained. The cooking time of Xiao Zhang's roast chicken is stable, and the juice is less, but it is full of burnt aroma, chewy and flavorful.
Compared with the two sides, Peter's chicken tastes brighter and fresher, with a very simple taste. Brother Zhang's chicken has an artificially carved taste, and the fusion of various spices is very thorough, with the dual flavor of crispy chicken and smoked chicken.
For these two flavors, it is difficult for most ordinary people to evaluate which one is better, because they are obviously not the same thing, and neither is roast chicken, so it is very difficult to evaluate.
Is it delicious? In fact, they are all delicious, it doesn't matter if it's roast chicken at this time, they can imitate the appearance and taste of roast chicken to this extent, which is already a great level, and the control of the heat is quite good.
After ordinary people tried a round, in fact, everyone still didn't come up with a specific result, and just now their game was so exciting, in fact, it was not easy for everyone to vote with their feet.
At this time, the chefs of the individual restaurants next to them began to put on a show, and they put on the most professional posture and began to take turns to taste the food, and there was no shortage of the kind of chefs who have been famous for a long time.
After they finished eating, they began to meet and discuss, if it was roast chicken, both of them were actually unqualified, but purely in terms of taste, these two young people still have some skills.
Finally, after some review, they think that Brother Zhang's dishes are more flavorful, the disadvantages are obvious but the advantages are more obvious, not everyone likes to eat tender and raw food, this kind of dry but not burnt chicken is obviously a different way, it can be said that it fully meets the evaluation criteria of new dishes and extended dishes.
So in terms of creativity, Brother Zhang is better, although Peter's side is also quite interesting, but compared with his opponents, it is a little less comfortable.
Specifically, the difference lies in experience and control of the heat.
Two wins in three games, the third game was invisible, Xiao Zhang won two victories, won the game by chance, and won the reward he deserved.
At this time, a person hurriedly ran out from the back of the restaurant, and he rushed to Brother Xiao Zhang and said, "Hello this gentleman, our boss wants to see you." ”
At this moment, the pony, who had already carried a 100-inch TV on his shoulder, stepped forward and said, "What? Can't afford to lose? ”
"No, no, no, our boss is just a simple love talent, seeing this gentleman's exquisite cooking skills, the boss is very interested in chatting with him."
And Peter next to him lost two games in a row, but he didn't seem to have any special reaction, just sat there and took a piece of roast chicken made by Brother Zhang and tasted it slowly.
When he takes the first bite of roast chicken, the first thing he can feel is the slightest bit of meat, that is, he is relatively old. But as he chewed, he realized that there was actually a taste in this chicken, although it was old but full of flavor, and it would not turn into slag when chewed carefully, but slipped down his throat.
Pick up another piece and chew it again, this time you can clearly feel the layering of the more detailed tasting, there is a clear boundary between the skin and the meat, and when the two are mixed together, there will be a very special satisfaction when chewing, and it will make people want to have a glass of beer.
Right! Peter suddenly remembered that this was what the master had told him, that the real food that makes people linger is never above the temple, it is this kind of wandering in the market, it is easy to get, this most ordinary thing can be made brilliantly, it is enough to explain the skill of the chef.
"Wait a minute, the third course hasn't been finished yet." Peter stood up at this time and said to Brother Zhang with a smile: "The third course, I still want to see your technique." ”
Brother Xiao Zhang hummed and returned to the stage again, although he had already won and did not need to compete anymore, but Brother Xiao Zhang still wanted to steal another teacher, after all, Peter's craftsmanship also added a lot of inspiration to him.
Seeing that Peter lost but still took the initiative to challenge, the surrounding spectators became interested again, after all, who can refuse a street chef competition, although people lost two games, but it doesn't mean that it is very bad at a glance, there are still some things, and although the third game cannot decide whether to win or lose, it should be the anger of young people, isn't this more exciting than watching football?
The host was also quite confused, he discussed it with the staff present, and then after the two sides were docked, he nodded and returned to the stage, continuing to be emotional.
And this time, Peter and Brother Zhang put on their aprons again, the two looked at each other, and Peter stepped forward and said in Mandarin with a thick accent: "In the third game, we will draw lots." ”
Brother Xiao Zhang nodded, and then said with a smile: "I just ate a piece of your chicken, I learned, I want to take it back and sell it for money." ”
Peter was stunned: "Sell for money? ”
"Well, I own the restaurant." Brother Xiao Zhang said: "Your method is fast and delicious, and it should be very profitable." ”
Peter smiled helplessly, walked back to his place, and then waited for the staff to move all kinds of delicacies one after another.

Anyone who has watched the King of Chefs knows that it is the turn of the lottery to win, that is, to consider the adaptability of a chef, what is drawn is what it is, there is no room for cheating, and the dishes of two people are not the same, innovation in such an environment is basically equivalent to a dead end, because once people make a very representative dish, all the novelty here will be written off.
In fact, this restaurant is still very patterned, although he has lost two, but the third can still supply the treasures at the bottom of the box, and this pattern will be opened up all of a sudden.
And because of the wonderful performance of the first two plates, the attention of this third one is particularly high, because the preliminary preparation takes about an hour, and there must be high-end ingredients such as broth, shark fin, nine-head abalone, big yellow croaker, tiger grouper, and East Star Grouper, so when Brother Zhang was waiting on the stage, the chefs in the surrounding areas came, and even Zhuang Wenqing, the president of Peter's Master's Provincial Federation of Hong Kong and Macao Chefs, came to the scene.
"Master...... I've disgraced you. ”
Peter was a little embarrassed when he saw the master, and Zhuang Wenqing listened carefully to Peter's report, and then nodded: "You are arrogant." ”
"Yes......"
After speaking, Zhuang Wenqing came to Brother Xiao Zhang and looked at him with a smile: "Young man, do you have a teacher?" ”
Brother Xiao Zhang shook his head busily: "I learned to cook by watching recipes and your TV show." ”
Zhuang Wenqing almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood: "You taught yourself?" ”
"Hmm." Brother Xiao Zhang nodded and said, "It's quite interesting." ”
Peter and Zhuang Wenqing didn't speak for a long time, because if the young man in front of him didn't lie, then he was a self-taught player who was a halfway monk, and a self-taught player could directly defeat his own closed disciple, which either was too good for Peter, or this young man was too talented.
Zhuang Wenqing turned his head sideways and glared at his apprentice, while Peter lowered his head in shame.
"Don't embarrass me anymore." Zhuang Wenqing said sharply: "It's not like that! ”
