Chapter 184: Soup Dumplings

At the next moment when the fight began, Qin Lang and Ji He's movements were quite consistent.

They picked up the flour they had prepared.

In the competition with the theme of pasta, noodles are naturally the top priority.

Although there are processed pasta dishes on the market, this is obviously not the choice of the two chefs who have won the municipal culinary championship.

Even with flour, the choice of the two is also different.

Qin Lang chose high-gluten flour with higher protein content, and the protein in the flour combines with water to form gluten during the dough mixing process, which directly affects the gluten of the dough.

Jihe's choice is all-purpose flour with moderate protein content.

While taking out their own flour, the two were also looking at their opponents' dough making process with their spare eyes.

The audience around and even the five judges on the judging bench also watched carefully with wide eyes and carefully watching the movements of the two Imperial Spirit Chefs in the field.

It's not often that you can see the whole cooking process in a public way like this.

Qin Lang's dough is relatively simple, the high-gluten flour and water are mixed evenly according to the ratio of two to one, then knead the dough vigorously, and wait until the dough shows a state of "three lights", wrap it in plastic wrap and put it aside.

On the other hand, in addition to adding the necessary water in the process of mixing noodles, a lot of seasonings and other things that cannot be seen are added.

"It's kind of interesting."

Retracting his gaze from the basin in Ji He's hand, Qin Lang muttered in a low voice.

After that, he began the next step of cooking.

The noodle dish that Qin Lang is going to make today, the noodles are very important, but there are still many steps that are as important as the noodles to be carried out, if it weren't for the help of spicy cooking speed, he wouldn't have considered taking it out on such an occasion at all.

Thinking of this, Qin Lang opened the foam box that was kept cold on the side and took out the ingredients to be used next from it.

Five... Ten... Fifteen... Twenty...

In the exclamations of the surrounding audience, twenty extremely large female crabs were taken out of the foam box by Qin Lang.

Ji He, who treated Qin Lang as a fierce rival with all his might, had already slowed down the movements in his hand the moment Qin Lang opened the foam box, focusing more attention on the ingredients that Qin Lang took out.

As soon as this fight began, he noticed the tightly covered foam box beside Qin Lang.

At this moment, when he saw the size of the twenty hairy crabs, his pupils suddenly shrank.

The pasta prepared by the other party actually used hairy crabs?

And it's not your average hairy crab.

Seeing that head, Ji He knew very well that the local ingredient market would never be able to easily provide hairy crabs of such quality.

These hairy crabs are exchanged for cooking event points!

After winning the culinary event, Ji He, who also got 100 points for the culinary event, had a solemn look on his face.

Qin Lang exchanged event points for ingredients in such a competition, which was obviously a bit beyond his expectations.

Fortunately... He wasn't unprepared, either.

Glancing at a small box beside him, Ji He withdrew his gaze and continued to concentrate on his own process of making the face.

Under his eyes, a faint blue light flickered slightly.

Food skills and ingredient insights.

This cooking skill, which Lake has also demonstrated before, has the ability to clearly detect deeper changes in the ingredients during the cooking process, which can be said to be a tiger and a tiger for a seemingly simple process such as noodles that involves changes in the internal structure of flour.

This is also the reason why he dares to add more seasonings and accessories in the mixing process without fear of overturning.

When I saw the hairy crabs, it wasn't just Jihe who was surprised.

The eyes of the five senior judges sitting on the judging bench sparkled in unison.

To be able to advance from the low-level judges, their eyesight goes without saying.

At a glance, they could see the bottom of the twenty hairy crabs.

"Hairy crabs from Mengze Prefecture, this has to be exchanged for cooking event points, right?"

"Willing to take out the event points to exchange for ingredients for the competition, this Qin Lang doesn't seem to be an ordinary person?"

"I seem to have heard of him, if I remember correctly, he is the champion of the cooking competition in Dongxia City, and his cooking skills are also superb."

"I see, I didn't expect this unofficial-looking competition to be able to make two municipal culinary champions fight."

"Interesting."

Several people whispered a few words in voices that only each other could hear, and quickly paid more attention to Qin Lang's side.

Before that, they paid more attention to the more famous Ji He.

Completely unconcerned about the exclamations around him, after sending the hairy crabs into the steamer, Qin Lang quickly began to deal with the old hen.

This noodle dish also needs chicken broth!

After quickly processing the old hen and blanching it, Qin Lang immediately took out a large piece of pigskin weighing several catties.

Standing opposite him, Ji He, who had just completed the process of making the meeting, frowned slightly.

Hairy crabs, chickens, pig rinds.

In just a few moments, Qin Lang had already taken out three different ingredients.

In his opinion, these three ingredients are not very related to each other.

What kind of pasta is this guy going to make?

While his mind was full of thoughts, Ji He opened the box beside him and carefully moved out the ingredients inside.

Qin Lang's movements, which Yu Guang noticed this scene, paused slightly, and his eyes swept over the ingredients in Ji He's hand with a little surprise.

Is that... Blowfish?!

Ji He's pasta actually uses puffer fish?

His expression suddenly became a little solemn.

If I am not mistaken, this should be a brocade puffer fish from Wuhe Prefecture, which has been artificially bred to basically have no tetrodotoxin, but it has not reduced the deliciousness of its meat in the slightest.

This is also an ingredient that needs to be redeemed with Cooking Event Points.

Just by seeing this ingredient, Qin Lang could imagine that the final pasta must be outstanding in terms of umami.

What a tough opponent.

Of course, the pasta you prepare yourself will not be bad.

He scooped up the blanched pigskin with a confident look in his eyes.

There is often only one possibility for pork rind to be used in pasta.

That's soup dumplings!

The gum in the pork skin is used to solidify the delicious soup and mix well with the filling, and then add it to the steamed buns, and as the steamed buns are heated, the solidified gum is re-transformed into soup on the inside of the steamed buns, and it becomes a soup dumpling with a delicious soup wrapped in the dough.

And there is only one possibility to use hairy crab soup dumplings.

That's crab roe soup dumplings!

This is the dish that Qin Lang prepared for this competition!

Qin Lang lowered his head again, and scraped off the surface grease after the blanched pork skin cooled.

And as Ji He took out the pufferfish, there were exclamations one after another around again.

Qin Lang, who was busy with his head down, didn't notice that in the exclamation, many people showed expressions of "sure enough".

Seeing the pufferfish, they had already guessed the dish that Ji He was going to come up with.

What he wanted to come up with was the noodle dish that won him the championship of the Qingyang City Cooking Competition-

Qingjiang porpoise noodles!
