Looking at Li Cheng's operation, everyone in Class Nine fell into confusion.

Even Ren Yan is a little unclear.

A state banquet-level dish, this product really dares to use thick soup treasure instead?

Are you really afraid that the taste of the finished product is not even half of the original?

But then again, why don't these foreigners seem to think there's anything wrong with this kind of thing?

What do you mean by those still-calm eyes?!

Li Cheng, this kid is using a thick soup treasure!

An industrial product produced to facilitate the production of dishes~

Is there really nothing wrong with such behavior in this kind of competition?

Shouldn't the daily use of this thing be on a small family stove?

Ren Yan had to admit that he was a little messy at this moment.

I thought that Li Cheng's kid was a bit suspicious, but now it seems that Li Cheng's approach is not too much of a problem except for some tricks.

On the contrary, I seem to be a little unaware of the pursuit of food by these foreign friends!

But after thinking about it carefully, Ren Yan nodded secretly.

Also...

No matter how long it takes to make their dish, it can be at the level of two hours at best.

Under such prerequisites, it may seem a little too difficult for them to understand the process of making a meal that starts nine hours in the first few hours.

At this moment, Ren Yan suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have to worry too much about the outcome of this game.

After Li Cheng used the thick soup treasure and withered the cabbage with peace of mind, the scene calmed down again for a while.

The emotions of several judges can be regarded as returning to normal.

Except for occasionally commenting on Leo and Li Cheng's techniques, they spend most of their time popularizing some knowledge of food.

For example, the grading of beef, and the origin of world-famous cabbage, etc.

Through these small knowledge, I can speculate on the materials used by Li Cheng and the others.

In this respect, it cannot be said that these people are unprofessional.

But this kind of profession really doesn't seem to know much about the food system of the Dragon Kingdom.

Most of the systems they talk about are still in places like Europe and America.

When it comes to Dragon Kingdom, it is still a starting point for world-famous delicacies such as dumplings and roast duck.

As for the state banquet-level food, it is not mentioned at all, and even the Panlong cucumber, which is often used as an appetizer at the state banquet and is the most widely recognized, is not mentioned.

From this point of view, the judges invited by the European Union Education Agency are still quite one-sided.

Otherwise, the food made by Li Cheng has already been pointed out, and the judges and the masses are still in a state of half-understanding, and they basically rely on guessing the food made by Li Cheng.

Thankfully, it wasn't a very long game.

After nearly two hours, the rich fragrance around the arena had almost formed a substance, and unconsciously aroused everyone's cravings.

From the beginning to now, the time is close to 11:00, and it is almost time for lunch.

The combination of the two made the hunger of the crowd who watched this kind of game for the first time even stronger.

Especially the moment Leo lifted the lid of his gourmet pot, this hunger was at its peak.

As Li Cheng and the judges had guessed before, Leo made a relatively standard stewed Charoli steak in red wine, and through the stewing method, the sweetness of the red wine was completely integrated with the steak.

Not only does it combine the two flavors perfectly, but it also makes the steak taste more soft and glutinous.

With the addition of Leo's carefully crafted tomato sauce concentrate as the base, this steak raises another dimension on top of the flavor level.

Therefore, after he evenly sprinkled the sauce on top of the steak, the taste and visual impact was extremely strong.

Most people start to swallow saliva unconsciously when they see such a steak.

Needless to say, they also know that this steak is extremely well finished, and even in a Michelin-starred restaurant, it should be in the type recommended by the chef.

However, for the true reflection of the masses, Leo did not have any waves in his heart.

Although the main body of the steak is finished, aren't some of the ingredients yet decorated?

Without these, a dry steak looks so monotonous~

So after doing this, Leo skillfully placed the previously blanched broccoli on top of the steak, and placed two cherry tomatoes (small tomatoes) on the side.

After that, the mayonnaise-based sauce was mixed and placed on the plate, and then the spoon was slightly hooked, and a perfect egg yolk arc appeared on the plate.

It makes the whole steak look more meaningful.

But Leo still felt a little inadequate, and after finishing this, he stubbornly placed a small mint leaf next to the steak and made a glass of lemon sparkling water on the spot, and then he nodded with satisfaction.

It was only at this time that he finished his plating, and after preparing five portions, he walked to the judges with his food on his face with a smile, put them down one by one, and waited for the judges to taste and score.

Seeing this scene, before the judges started eating, Ren Yan sighed helplessly.

He couldn't figure out what this Leo was doing with all this bells and whistles?

Isn't it a waste of time that the judges don't eat it?

With this time, he is not afraid that the steak has passed the best time to eat?

You're a stewed steak, it's still winter, it's cool, it's cold, are you really okay like this?

Sure enough, just like the helplessness in Ren Yan's heart.

When the judges got their share of the steak, the first action was to skillfully pull the broccoli, cherry tomatoes, and mint leaves aside, leaving only the steak as the staple dish.

However, on the way, they still sighed that Leo's plating skills really understood the essence of French cuisine.

As soon as they saw it, they couldn't help but move their index fingers.

Of course, not all judges gave such an evaluation.

At the very least, the lazy beauty who looked unusually noble before was unmoved, and even frowned imperceptibly between breathing.

After that, it's time to expertly cut the steak and put it in your mouth.

In this process, the judges carefully tasted each bite, and each bite was extremely slow, and some even narrowed their eyes to carefully taste all the flavors of the steak.

As the minutes passed, the expressions of the judges changed from the initial taste to appreciation and intoxication.

These extremely varied and extremely rich facial expressions made the surrounding crowd even if they didn't hear their comments and could already imagine the taste of it.

I couldn't help but feel even more hungry in their stomachs.

And when the judges swallowed the last bite of steak, they couldn't help but smile on their faces, and the chef man stood up and applauded:

"I have to say that the finish of this steak is just too high."

"From the beginning of the appearance, to the later aroma and taste have been excellent, and the nutritional level of Charolali steak is not far behind."

"Coupled with France's famous red wine, the whole steak has a qualitative leap."

"It's just such a bottle of well-known red wine as an adjunct to the steak, which makes people feel a little wasteful."

"However, I am still willing to give a full score of 10 in terms of appearance, aroma, taste, and nutrition."

"It's the last two hours of production time, a little too long, and if it is placed in the restaurant, it will definitely be complained by customers."

"But considering you're still a high school student, I think it's okay to give a ninety in terms of time."

"Then my overall rating is 9.8."

The chef man applauded again, his eyes full of appreciation.

In his opinion, Leo's cooking skills as a high school student are really remarkable, and if this is placed in his back kitchen, he must be a good player.

It's much better than other ordinary chefs.

As long as you cultivate it well in the future, it will definitely be the material of a well-known chef.

When the words fell, the royal sister next to the chef man also nodded in agreement:

"My evaluation is the same, so I'm too lazy to think about it, and I give it a rating of 9.8."

"I believe that Leo will become an excellent chef in the world."

After the two judges got up, the two middle-aged men in the back also immediately followed the team.

However, there are slight differences between their concepts and the previous two.

They think that cooking for a long time is a long time, and it has nothing to do with whether they are students or not.

So they only give a rating of 8 in terms of time, with an average score of 9.6.

But even then, it's a terrible score.

If you have a perfect score in the first four items, you are basically invincible, and even if there are some flaws in the later time points, does this matter?

The students of the Dragon Kingdom are still working on it, and it will only take more time.

If Leo's time points are like this, then the opponent will only be lower, even if the opponent is all four in the end, all the full scores, isn't the final winner still Leo?

At this moment, some people and netizens who are proficient in analysis unconsciously have this thought.

I think Leo is really stable this time.

However, just as they had this thought, a lazy voice came out.

The last judge, the noble beauty of the purple evening dress, spoke:

"I'll give you a nine."

"Although it has a good performance in terms of appearance, taste, and nutrition, there is still a certain gap from the full score."

"At the very least, when the steak comes out of the pan to the time it is served to me, it has already cooled down a little, which affects the taste of the steak a lot."

"In this regard, I'll deduct one point from each of my first four items."

As she spoke, the lazy beauty looked at Leo.

Leo's expression collapsed when he heard this, but he still nodded.

"As for the final timing, I don't think it's a big problem."

"Good things, there is always a need to wait, but the premise of this wait is that it is worth it, if you can make me have nothing to say in the first four items, I will give you full marks for this one."

"But now I can only give you nine points."

"You don't have an opinion~"

The lazy beauty looked at Leo with a smile.

Leo nodded bitterly: "No comment..."

"Still, you're doing pretty well this time."

"I'm quite satisfied."

"Then based on the ratings of the five of us, your final average score is 9.56."

"Congratulations, that's a good result."

When the words fell, the lazy woman stood up and applauded, and the other judges immediately followed.

Even the surrounding crowd was gradually infected, and applause gradually began to ring throughout the arena.

Seeing this scene, Leo quietly breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and retreated to his place.

Then he looked at Li Cheng, who was still busy.

"Okay, then now only Li Cheng is left."

"Now there are 40 minutes left before the end, can Li Cheng finish it in the last time, and what kind of food will he bring to us?"

"Let's wait and see~"

After Leo went down, the middle-aged man eased the atmosphere of the scene again.

For a while, all the eyes in the audience were focused on Li Cheng.

Now everyone is very curious, what kind of food is Li Cheng cooking, and he will use so much time, obviously it looks like his movements are quite neat~

However, Li Cheng did not waver in this, as a person who has long been accustomed to being live and being lived, some eyes are just some eyes, and they can't make him panic at all.

He is still carrying out his own operations steadily.

Now, the cabbage has been blighted and has been put into the water for breaking.

The whole cabbage looks like a flower bone ready to be put away.

And the soup stock is also added with the addition of thick soup treasure, and the taste is beginning to form.

It's certainly not as delicious as the slowly brewed broth, but it's barely usable.

At the very least, the other ingredients have been simmered for at least two hours, during which he has purified them several times.

In terms of nutrition, I don't know where it's taller than a steak.

Even if the essence is not completely squeezed, this pot of stock is still not a steak that can touch porcelain.

Now, it's time for the final combination. ’

Li Cheng thought secretly in his heart, and at the same time, he took out the broth that had been purified many times again and extracted it again.

After this last purification and extraction is complete.

The whole pot of broth is only about half a pot of stock, but this small half pot of stock is no longer free of impurities.

Not only is the color bright and golden, but it can also be penetrated.

When this scene was broadcast by four projections at the same time, the whole scene fell into a gasping sound.

They couldn't figure out how the soup, which originally seemed to be mixed up, could exude such a luster after a series of treatments by this kid.

Except for the difference in color, it is almost like a stream that can be crystal clear.

It caused an indescribable feeling in their hearts.

After the final extraction, Li Cheng served five bowls of soup, poured all the remaining broth into a copper kettle, and then put five completely processed cabbages into the bowl and put them on the plate.

In the end, he came to the judges with a dinner plate and a copper kettle.

From the pot to the end to the judges, the whole process takes less than two minutes.

When the bowl of cabbage was placed in front of the judges, they could even see the slightest hint of heat on it.

However, at this moment, these judges are more at a loss than a little surprised.

The chef man sniffled and scratched his head and looked at Li Cheng:

"This classmate, are you sure this is the food you made?"

"And not the meat you're putting aside?"

As he spoke, the chef also pointed to the ingredients that Li Cheng used to hook the soup before.

The other judges also nodded, with a slight doubt in their eyes.

In their opinion, although this cabbage smells good...

But compared to those meats, they are not nutritious at first glance.

Take this, why do you compare it to a piece of 5A beef?

Hearing this, Li Cheng smiled: "Oh, this dish is still one step away from being completely completed." ”

"But this step is usually done in front of guests in our Dragon Kingdom."

"Only then can it achieve the best results visually."

Saying that, Li Cheng ignored the strange looks of the judges, and poured the broth in the copper pot on top of the cabbage.

In an instant, a rich and extreme fragrance immediately wafted out.

It's subtle, subtle, and not strong, but it has a refreshing fragrance that makes you linger.

The moment this fragrance appeared, the judges' eyes flashed a trace of horror.

They didn't expect that the cabbage, which originally smelled only a surging fragrance, could actually exude such an amazing taste under this pouring.

The effect was like a close-up magic performed by the greatest magicians, and although they did not understand it, they were greatly impressed.

Even the cravings that had just been reduced by the steak were inevitably ticked out again.

However, this amazing aroma is only the beginning.

In the next few seconds, the look of horror in the judges' eyes gradually magnified, and even slowly spread to the entire eyes and even the entire face.

Their eyes widened, their mouths widened more and more, and even when they finally couldn't open their mouths, they gradually heard the sound of coughing.

At this moment, what was in front of them was no longer the cabbage at the beginning, but a lotus flower that was gradually letting go.

In the midst of this amazingly delicious soup, it began to gradually let go of itself, like a bright fairy lotus that had been moistened.

It's like a shy girl who shows her true face because of the beautiful taste.。

All in all, in the eyes of these judges, what they see in front of them is not a piece of food at all, but a beautiful work of art.

The crystal clear soup and the beautiful lotus flowers.

This couldn't help but remind them of an ancient poem in the Dragon Kingdom.

[Out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons.] 】

Before, they didn't understand what this ancient poem meant, but now, they seem to understand.

Isn't what is in front of you the best representation?

"One of the state banquets of the Dragon Kingdom, boiling water cabbage, and the judges are invited to taste it."

After this last step was completed and each cabbage had completed its own transformation, Li Cheng spoke softly.

Hearing this, the judges subconsciously leaned back.

Even if the author himself told them that it was just a dish, they still couldn't believe it.

I picked up a knife and fork several times, but I didn't know what to do.

It's not that they don't want to eat, they really don't know how to eat~

They are good at pulling flowers, but can they eat flowers?

They really haven't done this before!

Not to mention that this thing is actually a dish...

Such a dish, they really feel that as long as the knife is moved, it is a kind of defilement.

For a moment, the judges fell silent.

And above the stands, the crowd was dumbfounded.

After the dumbness, there was an uproar:

"Oh God, who can tell me that I'm not dreaming."

"That, that lotus, is it really just a dish?!"

"It's a work of art, it's a work of art!"

"Its form of presentation, its artistic value, is not something that a delicacy can have."

"Oh my God, what did this student of the Dragon Kingdom make!"

"It's not a matter of food or not food now, even if he puts this thing in front of me, I'm sure I'll talk to the judges, and I don't know where to start."

"It's... It's amazing. ”

"It's still cooking, it's a magic show, or rather, it's magic!"

"A magician, put on an amazing show in front of all of our audience~"

At the scene, the audience in Daying was in an uproar, and subconsciously sighed from the bottom of their hearts.

In the face of these feelings, everyone in Class 9 expressed emotional stability.

It's just boiling cabbage~

They've eaten the full version, even though it's the same in appearance.

But now the aroma is not even half of the full version, and it can only be considered a half-finished product.

However, the high school students in the European Union are instantly unable to fall in love.

Originally, they were still complacent about Leo's achievements.

I think this is definitely stable.

As a result, this student of the Dragon Kingdom played magic again with his backhand?!

And even more than the last one?!

Earlier, this guy said that if he had enough materials, he could come up with something even more scary.

I thought it was bragging, but it turned out to be just a statement of facts?!

Co-authored, our pattern is still small?

In addition to these students, Leo at this moment is in an unusually complicated mood.

Looking at Li Cheng's eyes, it was like looking at a giant.

At this moment, even if the judges haven't eaten yet, he knows that he has already lost.

You say you're a cook, how can you compare to someone who can do magic?

Especially the other party's magic, the things made seem to taste good.

As soon as he thought of this, Leo found himself even more helpless.

Even, it's a little numb...

And Li Cheng is here to look at the stunned judges and be speechless.

If it weren't for the international live broadcast, maintain your image.

He really wanted to say: "You guys are eating~"

"What are you looking for, what are you looking at if you can see enough of this thing?"

In the end, after signaling several times to let the other party move the knife to no avail.

Li Cheng, who was really helpless, could only personally grab a judge's hand and cut it on the boiling cabbage...
