Chapter 49: Kitchen Gas Rubbing Knife
Dean Cai shook the big sunflower fan and said with a smile: "Since both of you agree to the competition, is it okay for the old man to be the judge?"
Luo Dayou hurriedly patted his ass and said: "The dean is highly respected, and he is a master of the food world, so it is best for you to solve the question." ”
Lin Xiaogou shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't care. ”
Seeing Lin Xiaogou so calm, Steward Zhao faintly felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart, remembering that when Lin Xiaogou first arrived in the cafeteria, he said that he wanted to be a chef, did he really have the ability to be a chef?
Dean Cai cleared his throat and said: "Cooking skills are not only a test of cooking skills, but also to cook excellent and fragrant dishes, your own sense of smell and taste must also be first-class, so it is better than smell, taste, knife work, and finally cooking." The first to win three games wins, and if there is a draw, there will be an extra game. ”
Lin Xiaogou's heart moved, and asked, "How do you compare smell and taste?"
"It's simple, blindfolded, and then people are served various ingredients to sniff, and then say the names of these ingredients, which is compared to olfactory sensitivity, which is simple and fair. ”
Lin Xiaogou was secretly happy in his heart, and asked himself if his sense of smell was quite sensitive, not to mention that he had a keen smell soup, he would definitely not lose this game, and nodded: "How can the sense of taste compare?"
Old man Cai smiled and said, "Choose three different years of cooking wine, taste it with your tongue and say the year." ”
Lin Xiaogou frowned secretly, this is very difficult, it is a technical job to identify the year of the wine, maybe those professional bartenders can do it, and ordinary people can tell which wine is already good, and it is impossible to distinguish the year.
Lin Xiaogou glanced at Luo Dayou, and when he saw that this guy also frowned, he was obviously not sure, so he couldn't help but settle down a little, and nodded: "Okay, just do it." ”
"Since you agree, let's start quickly, so as not to delay the lunch of the bunnies in the academy, and start the first olfactory test immediately. Dean Cai said with a wave of his fan.
He Shangzai, the head of the canteen, immediately ordered someone to get a clean strip of cloth, and was about to blindfold Lin Xiaogou and Luo Dayou, the former hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Wait!"
Dean Cai said curiously: "Lin Xiaogou, what else do you have that you don't know?"
Lin Xiaogou grinned and said: "Suddenly in a hurry, can I go and lighten two catties first, so as not to affect the performance!"
The crowd snickered in low voices, and the pretty rice porters covered their mouths and snickered.
Dean Cai said angrily and funny: "It's still two catties, how many days have you not gone to the toilet, and your stomach has become a manure tank, go and pull it out!"
Lin Xiaogou grinned, deliberately lifted the waistband of his pants and ran towards the backyard of the cafeteria, and everyone laughed to get out of the way.
Lin Xiaogou ran into the toilet and offered to boil Tianding and cook a pot of Min Sniff Soup, and then returned to the back kitchen.
Luo Dayou said sarcastically: "Someone is scared to pee before they start the competition!"
Lin Xiaogou said with a grin: "It's better than someone being so scared that they can't pee." ”
Before the competition began, the strong smell of gunpowder spread, and all the onlookers were excitedly looking forward to it, and it was not uncommon for the students in the academy to compete, and even duels, but it was the first time to compete in cooking.
He Shangzai waved his hand, and immediately two people stepped forward to blindfold Lin Xiaogou and Luo Dayou.
He Shang said loudly: "Now the first game of the competition begins." ”
The four female workers smiled and lifted the two tables to Lin Xiaogou and Luo Dayou, each with ten different things on the table.
He Shang was asking, "Who will come first?"
Lin Xiaogou's sensitive sniffing soup has a limited time limit, and he hurriedly said, "I'll come first!"
The female worker next to her immediately picked up a bottle of black liquid on the table and handed it to Lin Xiaogou's nose and lowered it, Lin Xiaose sniffed lightly and said lightly: "Soy sauce!"
The female worker immediately switched to the second type.
"Garlic!"
"Cool melon!"
"Sand cucumber!"
"Salted fish!"
"Salt!"
The female worker changed six or seven kinds in a row, and Lin Xiaogou guessed it as soon as she heard it, and bursts of exclamation sounded all around. Steward Zhao's face was ugly, and he quietly glanced at the female worker, who immediately understood, and at the same time picked up the last three things and put them under Lin Xiaogou's nose.
The female worker's behavior made everyone stunned, He Shangzai frowned, but seeing that the old dean was still looking at it with a smile, he did not say anything to stop it, obviously acquiescing to the female worker's action.
Lin Xiaogou sniffed, and his sword eyebrows suddenly wrinkled, why did he seem to have several flavors?
Steward Zhao was secretly happy, and said lightly: "Lin Xiaogou, if you can't smell it, admit defeat!"
Lin Xiaogou gritted his teeth and said stiffly: "Pea ......!"
The female worker's face changed slightly, and there was one kind of pea in her hand, fortunately, there were two kinds of Lin Xiaogou obviously couldn't smell it.
Just when everyone thought that Lin Xiaogou had been fooled, Lin Xiaogou said: "There are two more...... Pumpkin flowers and tung oil!"
The whole back kitchen was boiling instantly, it was amazing, the three things together were actually sniffed out by Lin Xiaogou, is this guy a dog?
"Brother Xiao Gou is mighty!" Han Xiaobao clapped his palms and shouted excitedly, his eyes were full of admiration, and the pyrotechnics of 106 cheered.
Steward Zhao's face was extremely ugly, and he said loudly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, he must be cheating, his eyes are not blindfolded!"
Dean Cai said unhappily: "Steward Zhao, after the two of them were blindfolded, they were personally examined by this hospital, do you mean that this hospital is cheating, or is this hospital old and dizzy?"
Steward Zhao was suddenly swallowed, and said, "My subordinates don't dare!"
He Shang said in a business-like manner: "Steward Zhao, if you have no objection to the result, you will step aside, and then it will be Luo Dayou's turn." ”
Luo Dayou didn't expect Lin Xiaogou to be able to guess all ten things correctly, and he suddenly felt a lot of pressure, and even sweat oozed from his forehead, and he patted his chest boldly and said, "Let's start!"
The female worker immediately picked up an object and put it under his nose, sniffed it, and said happily, "Fire Fruit!"
"Green onions!"
"Ginger!"
"Leek!"
Several kinds of them were guessed by Luo Dayou, and the people around them saw that they were tired, and what they gave to Luo Dayou smelled were some seasoning materials that had a strong taste and were often used, which was no different from cheating, and even the female worker who was in charge of taking things blushed a little.
The female worker picked up the last thing and put it under Luo Dayou's nose, this is a piece of watermelon, which is relatively difficult to distinguish among the ten items, if the watermelon is eaten, it can be identified immediately, but the smell is not obvious.
Luo Dayou sniffed and sniffed, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sweet...... Sweet sauce!" When he tore off the blindfold and looked at it, he was immediately dumbfounded, and glared at the female worker fiercely.
Dean Cai shook the big sunflower fan and said: "In the first game, Lin Xiaogou successfully identified ten kinds of items, Luo Dayou identified nine, and Lin Xiaogou won!"
Luo Dayou's face was gloomy, like a dead old lady.
Immediately after the second taste competition, the year of the wine is about experience, and it is impossible to take advantage of it, when it comes to the experience of drinking, Luo Dayou is naturally much stronger than Lin Xiaogou, who has never even drunk red and white wine.
In the second game, Lin Xiaogou undoubtedly lost, and now the two of them have won and lost one game each, and in order to win, the knife work and cooking in the back must be won.
Dean Cai said with a smile: "Now that it's a draw, the next knife competition, you can choose one of your best skills to perform, and then this court will judge the superior." ”
Luo Dayou won a game, and now he is full of confidence, not to mention that knife work and cooking have to go through a long period of immersion, Lin Xiaogou is only fifteen or sixteen years old at most, how can he compare with himself.
Luo Dayou said with a smile: "I'll come first this time!" After speaking, he picked a carrot, and quickly peeled and carved it with a kitchen knife, just a few teas, and a phoenix with wings about to fly appeared in front of everyone.
Luo Dayou put the phoenix carved from radish on the table, and said triumphantly: "This is called Danfeng Chaoyang, Lin Xiaogou, it's your turn!"
Lin Xiaogou glanced at the phoenix, although it was not lifelike, but it was also vivid, it can be seen that the surname Luo does have two brushes in terms of knife work, and it may not be easy for him to win, and now he can only take a risk once.
Lin Xiaogou also chose a carrot, but he was not in a hurry, his feet opened naturally, he held a kitchen knife and looked straight ahead, and stood like this for a quarter of an hour.
Everyone couldn't help but whisper, what is this kid standing stupidly with a knife!
Luo Dayou said impatiently: "The surname is Lin, don't pretend, just do it, if it doesn't work, you can't do it, do you want everyone to stand with you until the night." ”
Lin Xiaogou seemed to be deaf, still standing and moving.
Dean Cai's eyes lit up, and he said secretly: "It's a little interesting, could it be that this kid has been able to release his spiritual sense?"
At this time, Lin Xiaogou suddenly moved, and the blade moved quickly on the carrot, or spinning, or sweeping, or horizontally, or diagonally cutting...... Some finely chopped radish crumbs rained down.
At this moment, Lin Xiaogou has completely entered a state of emptiness, not looking at it with his eyes at all, but completely relying on his feelings to copy the shape of the radish in his "heart". If someone can see through Lin Xiaogou's qi sea acupoint at this time, they will definitely see that the kitchen qi in it is forming a radish shape, exactly the same as the one in Lin Xiaogou's hand.
As time passed, the carrot in Lin Xiaogou's hand gradually took shape, and it was actually three round balls connected together, which looked a bit like a string of rock sugar gourds.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, your carved rock sugar gourd came out, there was no technical content, and the appearance was simply scum compared to other people's Danfeng Chaoyang.
Luo Dayou had already laughed, his face was full of ridicule and disdain, this kid must have had his head caught by a donkey's egg, and he wanted to compare with Lao Tzu when he cut a few round balls.
At this time, Lin Xiaogou slashed twice, separated the three balls that were connected together, put the knife down with a long breath, only to feel a feeling of exhaustion coming, and said secretly: "Zhu Dazui's kitchen gas rubbing knife is really very draining, and I almost can't withstand it." ”
