Sun Xing and the small actions of the Cihang Gang are not mentioned for the time being, and Xiong Shoushan and Chen Shanzang have also entered the middle game in the front game.

Xiong Shoushan's work has already taken shape, it is a classic honey cake roll, and Chen Shanzang's steamed bun slices inserted on the iron plug and started to grill are enough to explain his work.

The three "Jun" level judges are not picky for such works, in the final analysis, a small place like Chanyuan County, itself does not expect to be able to eat any dishes of famous chefs in the world, taste every day, maintain taste sensitivity, and then find a way to get a higher title in the evaluation, going to Longgong City, Tiangong City and other big cities is their pursuit.

However, it is precisely because of this that their evaluation must not make mistakes.

Since the Li Huang case involved the Monkey King, the gourmets in the Central Plains have become cautious one by one, although the Zhao family's food appearance is becoming more and more ugly, but that is the Zhao family's business, they have no background gourmets only understand one thing-

If they don't make mistakes, at most they will be put in small shoes, but if they leave a little bit of control, they may directly cut off their careers.

"What do you think of honey cakes and baked buns?"

Because there was no host and commentator, the three judges chatted on their own, and the chubby judge on the left glanced at the progress of both sides, and said softly:

"Xiong Shoushan, I know, his honey cake is also a masterpiece, although it can't be said to be a top dim sum, but put it in the Longmen pastry competition, it should be no problem to pass the preselection."

When the judge sitting in the middle heard this, he shrugged his nose and shook his head: "This fighting flavor is not only based on the taste, but also on the examination question, Xiong Shoushan's honey cake roll has a smoky taste, I am worried that it will be noisy in the end, and it is not certain whether it will be baked dim sum or smoked dim sum at that time." ”

"Xiong Shoushan is not the first day of fighting, he shouldn't make such an obvious mistake." The judge on the right who provoked the topic denied it, but the fat judge on the left said unexpectedly:

"So you're also optimistic about Xiong Shoushan?"

"No, I'm more optimistic about that little bald head." The judge on the right looked at Chen Shanzang, who began to brush egg whites on the steamed bread slices, and said in a leisurely tone.

"Him?" The fat judge's tone was a little disdainful, "Just this baked bun, if nothing else, the taste itself can't surpass the cake, right?" ”

This is not biased, but the limitations of the fighting flavor itself.

It's like Yingzhou cuisine is easy to be sought after by the people because of its exquisite presentation and deliberately created high style, but in major competitions, Yingzhou cuisine rarely wins.

There is a balance in the game, but reality does not need it, and the dishes are inherently suitable for fighting and not suitable for fighting flavor.

Well-cooked boiling cabbage is not as easy to grab the judges' taste buds as the stir-fried pork on high heat.

It is not impossible to defeat the well-seasoned Buddha jumping over the wall with a plain sashimi, but that can only be because of the crushing of the realm, unless the opponent at the same level makes a major mistake at the level of overturning the salt pot, otherwise the moment the dish is decided, the game is already out of suspense.

Now the two contestants are showing a similar situation, cake vs. steamed buns, in the case of dim sum, steamed buns are naturally on the weak side.

The judge on the right was noncommittal about this statement, he just maintained that calm look, always watching Chen Shanzang's every move, and said in a quiet tone:

"You might as well calm down and watch the movements of this little bald head."

"Calm down?" Although he was not very optimistic about the baked buns, the fat judge did not refuse, he used his mental method to calm the restlessness in his heart, let his spirit slowly calm down, and then set his eyes on the little bald head.

But the scene in front of me has not changed much.

Chen Shanzang is like an ordinary ordinary person, slicing the leftover steamed buns and grilling them, and he can't see any characteristics at all.

"Featureless."

Without waiting for the fat judge to speak, the judge in the middle took the first step and said, and the judge on the right did not deny this statement, but nodded and said:

"Yes, there is no characteristic, starting from the noodles, it is an ordinary appearance, but why can't we find fault with the 'steamed bun' in this non-characteristic approach?"

A word woke up the dreamer, and the other two judges finally realized where the blind spot was.

Although they haven't tasted it yet, being able to get the title of "Jun" means that they have quite a tasting resume, and they can basically draw the advantages and disadvantages at a glance of ordinary dishes.

But what they discussed was that steamed buns were not as good as cakes, not that there was anything wrong with this little bald head, which was a bit intriguing.

"With ordinary methods, I can make steamed buns that can't be faulted, and I suddenly look forward to what kind of baked buns this little bald head can serve."

The fat judges have no tendencies, and after realizing that they have made the mistake of empiricism, they can't help but look forward to it.

It's really been so quiet in this small place in Chanyuan County that he hasn't been in it for a long time, and he's looking forward to the surprises that the next meal can bring.

"I'm done!"

Suddenly, Xiong Shoushan raised his hand, and in front of him, among the five plates, there was a light brown mosquito-coiled cake.

In terms of shape, this is undoubtedly a classic cake roll, but if you look closely, you will find that the surface of these cake rolls is coated with a crystal film.

"Xiong's honey baked cake rolls, please taste them."

Xiong Shoushan glanced at Chen Shanzang, who was still slowly spreading barbecue ingredients, and a sneer appeared in his heart, calculating the time, those two have now reached the last moment.

Glancing vaguely at the ventilation equipment of the venue, Xiong Shoushan handed the cake to the staff, but Chen Shanzang was completely unmoved, sitting quietly in front of his small honeycomb coal stove, constantly flipping the bun in his hand.

Although there will always be an unspoken rule that the first to go up and lose in major food-themed film and television works, it is essentially to serve the tension of the plot, which is like the so-called finale and big axis in the past, why should a good show be placed in the back? is to avoid watching the best show, which will lead to a boring situation in the future.

If you put out the winner's dish first, will the loser's work still appear? How to boast after debuting? exaggerated, why can the previous exaggerated small works win? If it is exaggerated, the victory or defeat will be known at a glance, and the results announced later will be no longer suspenseful.

But the reality is just the opposite, all of the above reasons why film and television works should be weak first and then strong, can be seamlessly transformed into proof of strong first and then weak in reality.

The strongest one will be able to occupy the taste buds of the judges first, weakening the impact of subsequent dishes, which is the most effective among similar dishes.

For example, for the same spicy dish, if you first serve a set of devil's spicy, even if the judges gargle and contain ginger, when you serve the dish to your opponent, the taste will inevitably be a little weaker.

Although this time it was a snack, the taste fatigue caused by sweetness far exceeded the spicy taste that acted on the pain!

The three judges can naturally see this strategy, but they don't care, in the end, this practice does not violate the rules of douwei, or rather, the cooking speed itself is also a part of the cooking level, if you can't compete with others, the taste can't break through the blockade laid by the former, then you deserve to lose!

The three rolls of cake were placed in front of the table, and the staff in charge of filming focused on them, and the judge sitting in the middle took the lead in picking up the fork and gently pressed it on the surface of the cake that could smell the rich honey aroma.

The slight feeling of fragmentation was transmitted from the fork to the fingertips, and the corners of the judge's eyebrows in the middle rose, and instead of cutting off a piece in a more Sven way, he inserted the whole cake roll and brought it to his mouth like an anime character forking the whole steak......

"Click!"

The crisp sensation expands from between the teeth, and under the thin crispy crust, the fluffy bread also responds with the ultimate contrast, and the soft and fluffy cream taste is slightly lighter, but just the right amount of sweetness to reconcile the slightly sweeter crispy crust.

The whole egg cake is moistened with honey, and as your lips and teeth squeeze, the smoky flavor that penetrates deep into the cake also evaporates.

But the smoky caramel-like flavor and the layer of sugar shell plated on the surface have a kind of innate bond, and the unification of the taste is easily completed, just like the smooth and delicate quilt cover wraps the fluffy and soft quilt core, and holds it firmly in the arms, warm and comfortable.

"Not bad...... Actually used the smoking method to plate the sugar on the cake, while baking, while smoking, it will not affect the baking, nor will it melt the appearance of the sugar shell because of heat, such exquisite control, without ten years of hard work, it will definitely not be done! ”

The fat judge had an approving expression on his face, even if he put aside the competition questions, this cake roll was delicious.

The corners of Xiong Shoushan's mouth were raised high, and he could already faintly smell the "strange fragrance" wafting from the venue next door, but before he could turn his head to Chen Shanzang and cast a provocative look, the little bald head had already raised his arm-

"I'm done here!"

When the three judges heard this, they did not delay, and immediately picked up the ginger slices prepared by the douwei field to reset the taste buds and put them in their mouths, and when the staff served Chen Shanzang's dishes, they had completed the process of rinsing their mouths with tea and turned their attention to Chen Shanzang's works.

But in terms of appearance, Chen Shanzang's roasted steamed buns are not outstanding, and they can even be said to be a little shabby, and half a palm-sized steamed bun slice is roasted brown and browned, although there is no trace of carbon ash staining is an advantage, but that's all.

How so?

It's a bit of a lift-up in terms of modest rules, just from the outside, the steamed buns produced on the assembly line in the factory will not be worse than it.

But the three judges did not show the slightest disdain at this time, even the fat judges showed a dignified look.

Again, the dishes without any special features, but they can't find fault with them, which in itself is already very abnormal.

Give it a try.

The judge on the right side of Chen Shanzang's special right side stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the steamed buns, and his movements were careful, for fear of damaging the structure of the appearance.

This is not unfounded, but the ethics of a food judge, after all, no one knows whether the seemingly ordinary burnt yellow shell embodies the chef's whimsy.

The slices are brought to the mouth, the teeth are bitten down, a subtle hardness spreads out with the force, and the loose structure brings a subtle frosting feeling, followed by a flexible resistance.

A hint of saltiness spreads out on the tongue, a pinch of salt is mixed with the tasteless egg white, creating a wonderful gauze skirt under a temperature art called barbecue.

Xiong Shanjun's sweet cake did not pose any hindrance, because Chen Shanzang's cake was salty from the beginning.

After rinsing my mouth, the memory of a little sweetness that still remains, but instead it has become the afterglow of this salty taste.

The outer layer of the gauze is torn apart, revealing a soft inner lining, precise heat control and egg white protection, so that the loss of moisture stays on the surface, and under this fluffy skin, the inside is still "steamed bun".

There is no taste, but the soft and tough texture makes people can't help but chew, and as the chewing continues, a hint of sweetness overflows from it.

Under the seemingly rugged appearance, it is like a delicate nesting doll, which needs to be slowly uncovered layer by layer before you can feel the humor.

However, there are different ways to eat dim sum, some people like to taste carefully, and naturally there are also people who chew peonies, as judges, they naturally can't be judged from one angle alone.

After chewing and slowly feeling the core of the work, the fat judge looked at the remaining half of the bun in his hand, threw it directly into his mouth, and chewed it in a big gulp.

The tasting may seem rude, but the other two judges noticed, and the partner's chewing became slower and slower, as if out of control, and began to savor.

It's just that he didn't speak, and the two didn't know the reason, so they followed his example and threw the bun directly into his mouth.

Ordinary.

That's the first impression.

The salty taste with no characteristics and the spicy aroma brought by a small amount of cumin powder are the main theme of the taste, and the texture is similar to the feeling of fried steamed bread slices, except for the uniform taste, there are no more characteristics.

But how to put it, it's this bland feeling, but it seems to have the magic of all-inclusiveness, and people can't help but want to eat it with something else.

It is precisely because it is bland, so it can be versatile, and as the chewing continues, all kinds of delicacies that the judges have eaten begin to emerge, such as caviar, foie gras, garlic, spicy sauce......

The flavors of the various side dishes and spices hit the taste buds of the judges in a reminiscent way, and then mixed with the slightly bland baked buns to turn into even more rich memories.

"Hoo ......"

The three judges woke up one after another, and they all breathed a long sigh of relief, but in this short time of half a mouthful of steamed buns, they seemed to have a memory of the food they had eaten.

Picked up the teacup on the table and gave a sip of tea, reminiscing about the non-existent residue on the tip of the tongue, the three judges did not hesitate, only the middle judge asked Chen Shanzang before the staff asked for a vote:

"Does this roasted steamed bun slice have a name?"

"Name? This is a baked steamed bun slice! Still need a name? Chen Shanzang asked cutely, but the judges who spoke were stunned, and the names such as "memory", "reminiscence", and "memory of food" in their minds were shattered, and all that was left was a sense of returning to the basics.

He exchanged glances with the other two judges, and then laughed at the same time, and without waiting for the staff to ask, the result of this fight was no longer suspense-

"Winner, Chen Shanzang!"

"I'm not convinced!"
