Chapter 41: The Champion of the Neighboring City

"Uncle, which of the two of them do you think cooks more delicious food?"

Outside the kitchen, Fu Guan looked curiously at the closed kitchens on both sides and asked.

"How do I know?" Fu Xing couldn't help but roll his eyes, "I don't know much about the cooking skills of the two of them, but they shouldn't be too bad, so let them test it together." ”

"You'll have to taste it to know." He leaned against the table with his hands on his chest, a little expectant in his eyes.

"Uncle, can I taste it later?" Fu Guan swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but speak, "It's time for lunch..."

"Humph! You kid. Fu Xing glanced at his nephew amusedly, "Wait, if there is any leftover, you can also taste it together, but it can't affect my tasting." ”

"That's nature!" Hearing his uncle's permission, Fu Guan was happy for a while, and quickly nodded.

"By the way, what are you doing today?" Fu Xing asked.

"Ahh I almost forgot. Fu Guan patted his head, and then suddenly remembered that he had come this time to do business, "Uncle, there is a royal spirit chef who knows out where I am your nephew, and asked me to pass you a letter." ”

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Fu Xing.

"Letter? Why don't you contact me directly? Fu Xing raised his eyebrows, took the letter and opened it to read.

After a moment, there was a little more interested look on his face, "It's kind of interesting." ”

"Uncle, what's the matter? Tell me no? Fu Guan asked curiously.

"There's nothing wrong with that." Fu Xing put the letter aside, "It's a royal chef in Danju City next door, and after knowing my Zhenniu Pavilion, I hope to be able to participate in the next Zhenniu Pavilion beef tasting feast." ”

Every year, Fu Xing will hold a beef tasting feast at the Zhen Niu Pavilion, inviting his approved Royal Spirit Chef to come and enjoy the top quality beef.

Calculate the time, and the next beef tasting feast is about to begin, just after the municipal cooking competition.

"This Imperial Chef named Lake is not simple." Fu Xing tapped the letter with his finger, with an interested expression on his face, "A month ago, he won the championship in the city-level cooking competition in Danju City, and won the second-level food recommender badge in Danju City. ”

"And he will also participate in the city's municipal cooking competition that will be held in a few days."

"The raptor crosses the river." Fu Guan sighed, "It seems that he is preparing for the state-level cooking event." ”

State-level culinary competitions on top of municipal culinary competitions require five second-level referrer badges to qualify.

The second-level food recommender is different from the first-level food recommender, and there is only one in each city.

There are only two ways to obtain the Level 2 Referrer badge.

First, if you win the championship in the local municipal cooking competition, you will directly receive the badge awarded by the local second-level food sponsor.

Second, visit the local second-level food referrers.

The second-level food recommender is not as easy to visit as the first-level food recommender, not only does there be a certain threshold for accepting the test, but the difficulty of the test will be much higher.

Therefore, the overall difficulty of the two methods is similar.

"Not bad." Fu Xing nodded, "Li Yuantu, the second-level food recommender in our city, has set the test threshold is to have two second-level food recommender badges, and he only has one, which can only be obtained through competitions. ”

"But then..."he rubbed his eyebrows, "This time, it will be even more difficult for our local Imperial Spirit Chef in Dongxia City to win the championship in this city-level cooking competition." ”

"Uncle, will you invite Lake to a beef tasting feast?" Fu Guan asked.

"There's no hurry." Fu Xing said calmly, "Since he will participate in the municipal cooking competition in a few days, then I, as one of the eleven judges, will naturally see his strength as the champion of the Danju City Municipal Competition." ”

"If you can get my approval, I can invite him when the time comes."

"If you're not qualified, don't think about it."

Fu Guan nodded.

The letter had been forwarded, and his business was over.

Soon, the door to one of the kitchens was opened.

With the rich aroma gushing out of the kitchen, Tang Xie walked out step by step with a plate of delicacies that looked quite exquisite, and delivered it to Fu Xing and Fu Guan.

"Mr. Fu Xing, this is my beef fruit bun cooked with beef tenderloin, please taste it!" Tang Xie noticed that Qin Lang hadn't come out of the kitchen yet, and his eyes suddenly felt a little more proud.

"Oh?"

Fu Xing smelled the special baking aroma in the air, and then looked down at the food in front of him, which was two fists in size, and the outer bread had a faint burnt brown feeling, showing a somewhat interested look.

"I've heard of this cooking before, but this is the first time I've seen it." He smiled, "The beef inside is sliced and layered with slices of fruit, cheese and other toppings, and the outside is wrapped in bread and sent to the oven to be baked together?" ”

"Yes." Tang Xie nodded.

"It's not difficult to make this kind of dish, but it's a lot of exquisiteness, after all, it's not easy to keep the ingredients inside in perfect condition when you can't see the inside." Fu Xing made a simple comment, and then picked up a table knife to divide the whole beef fruit bun in two.

As the outermost layer of bread is cut, the rich aroma of the various ingredients inside bursts out as if it were ignited.

The rich aroma of beef, the aroma of various fruits, the aroma of salty cheese with a milky aroma...

These flavors mix together and escape in the immediate vicinity.

Fu Guan on the side couldn't help but drool.

It is worthy of the dishes cooked by the Royal Spirit Kitchen, which is much better than his own cooking skills.

Thinking that he would be able to taste it himself later, he was already looking forward to it.

Compared with his nephew's unbearableness, Fu Xing's expression was still calm.

He carefully discerned the flavors of the various ingredients in the air, then picked up the fork and began to savor the dish slowly.

The outer layer of the bread coat is quite crispy under the oven, but the inside of the bread has a unique flavor because it absorbs the fat of the beef inside and the juice of the fruit when it is heated.

The heat of the beef inside is very good, and it does not deteriorate the taste of the originally tender beef.

The salted cheese melted by heat and the juice from the flesh after heating penetrate into the gaps in the texture of the beef during the roasting process, and fully integrate into it, which also gives the beef more flavors.

In addition, the soft and sweet fruit after roasting is also surprisingly good.

Under Tang Xie's nervous gaze, Fu Xing slowly put down the fork after tasting.

"It's a delicious dish."

Eventually, he nodded approvingly.

Hearing Fu Xing's evaluation, Tang Xie smiled with relief.

Just then, another kitchen door opened with a "squeak".

This made Tang Xie, who wanted to say something, temporarily shut down and turned his head to look.

Qin Lang walked out step by step with the dinner plate and came to Fu Xing.

He nodded to Tang Xie on the side, and then spoke.

"Slippery egg beef tenderloin, Mr. Fu Xing, please taste it."
