Chapter 68 God of Cookery Contest
The annual God of Cookery Competition in Cangzhou City is being held in full swing. A row of stoves and spatulas are placed in the place where the city usually watches the show, and the chefs participating in the competition stand aside to prepare.
Most of the chefs who came to participate in the competition were young chefs from the Cangzhou City Restaurant. They shouldered the mission of the restaurant. Even though they had experienced many battles, they were still a little nervous.
The sixth child from Yunyinzhai was also among them, but he was not nervous at all. His relaxed appearance, which was different from other contestants, was very eye-catching in a row of people. The audience thought he was planning a strategy.In fact, it is not the case that Lao Liu is not nervous because he is confident that he can win the game, he is still very self-aware.Although he has a great talent for cooking, he just figured it out for himself, how can he compare to the chef of a restaurant.So Lao Liu never thought that he could defeat the chefs, and he had never participated in the God of Cookery Competition before, and he had a mission to participate this time.
As for the task... The sixth child looked up at Lin Cheng and the others. Lin Cheng and his son made a cheering gesture to him, causing him to grin and nod with his mouth open.
"The competition is about to start. Today's competition is to make vegetarian dishes. You can cook after you choose your own ingredients. After a stick of incense, you need to make the finished product!" The person hosting the competition shouted from the high platform.
Now it's the audition for the God of Cookery Contest. The audition is relatively simple but not that simple, and the dishes for the audition are the same.Just like this time, what everyone has to do is to make vegetarian dishes. Making vegetarian dishes seems simple, but it requires basic skills. Cooking too much will affect the taste.What is even more challenging is that the taste of pure vegetarian dishes is also a problem without other side dishes.
"Start!" The host gave the order, and the contestants rushed forward to get those green vegetables that tasted better.
The sixth child didn't follow the crowd, instead he took a few cucumbers, and he planned to make cucumber shoots.
The vegetables used in the competition were all washed. After taking it, Lao Liu put it directly on the cutting board, split the cucumber with the back of a knife, cut the cucumber along the crack with the knife, and then cut it into pieces.
The practice of patting cucumbers is so simple that even a child can do it.At the beginning, those who were optimistic about Lao Liu booed in unison.
It's not that they think Lao Liu is not good, but that patting cucumbers is just like that. Add light soy sauce, mature vinegar, sugar, garlic, chili and sesame oil. There is no skill in the dish.
The audience sighed for Lao Liu, then turned their eyes to the others.
At this time, other contestants have already selected their dishes and are ready to cook them.A chef from Fu'an Restaurant took the eggplant, and his superb knife skills attracted everyone's attention.He quickly cut the eggplant and put the oil on it to preheat.
After the oil boiled, he first put some spices in it, the spices were ground so finely that it was impossible to tell what kind of spice it was.The spices are self-contained. The contestants only provide the usual salt, soy sauce and vinegar, and other seasonings are self-contained.
The competition provides the same. In addition to the basic skills, each contestant also has a secret, which is their own seasoning.Seasoning is generally made with spices, and the combination of different spices forms different seasonings, which is also the secret recipe of each family.Generally, everyone grinds the spices and brings them in small jars, so that outsiders can't learn it even if they want to.
Spices are imported from the Western Regions, and they are not cheap at all. Ordinary people generally do not buy them for cooking, which would be a bit extravagant.This is a cheap restaurant. If ordinary people want to eat a delicious meal, they have to go to a restaurant to eat.
When the spices are put into the pot, the aroma is immediately overflowing.
"What kind of eggplant is this, so fragrant!" A viewer has been captured by the aroma.
"As expected of Fu'an Restaurant, you need to add spices to make eggplant, no wonder it can be made so delicious." Another audience member sighed.
"Is there anyone who doesn't put spices, otherwise the taste will be the same as ours?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at the guy who didn't put spices.Hehe, what spices are needed to shoot cucumbers!
The audience who thought Lao Liu didn’t put spices wanted to turn their heads to look at others, but Lao Liu took out a small jar, opened it, scooped a spoonful of yellow powder with a spoon, and mixed it in the prepared cucumber.The whole movement was done in one go, but the crowd of onlookers were stunned.
"What did he put in?" Everyone was puzzled, but they were inexplicably looking forward to it.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The drum sounded, and the game was over.
The sixth child was the first to finish, so his dishes were the first to be sent to the judges for tasting. The judges were composed of real chefs from various restaurants, prestigious people, and some audience members who were selected on the spot.
The sixth cucumber was sent up, and the judges raised their eyebrows before tasting it.
"Hmm..." The judges who tasted it first froze for a moment, and the audience held their breath in fright, and they didn't dare to say "how does it taste?"
"Not bad!" The judges picked up another piece before passing it to the next judge.
It was indeed not bad, the taste of the cucumber was beyond his expectation.Although the taste of patting cucumbers is good, it still has the same taste when it comes and goes, and there is no freshness.However, compared with the ones he had eaten before, Lao Liu's Pai Cucumber was more crisp and refreshing, and the taste of the dipping sauce was even more wonderful. This is not something ordinary people can make.
The first judge felt very pleasantly surprised, and couldn't help but take another look at Lao Liu. If their restaurant could...
Unexpectedly, Lao Liu's cucumber shooting was unanimously praised by the judges. What was thought to be the simplest dish won a good start, which surprised everyone.
"Why is your cucumber shooting different from usual ones?" asked one of the judges.
"I added the special seasoning made by our restaurant to the cucumber. The function of our seasoning is the same as that of spices, but it is more convenient than spices. You can put it in any dish and mix it." Lao Liu said while Display small jars for spices.
"Really? Show me it!" The judge who spoke was the chef of Fu'an Restaurant, and he was very interested in the can of stuff in Lao Liu's hand.
The sixth child brought it up to him, and the chef opened it up and tasted it as soon as he got it.The yellow powder looks bland, but tastes fantastic.
The chef smacked his lips and returned the seasoning jar to the sixth child.He could only taste a few spices, but there were other things in Lao Liu's seasoning, but he couldn't taste them.
The chef was quite sorry, but he had other ideas in mind.Viewers were also curious about the spice jar and wanted to see what it was.
The sixth child smiled slightly, and their goal was achieved.
That's right, the purpose of Lao Liu's participation in the competition is not pure. He came to the competition to promote their seasoning.
This idea was thought up by Zhao Yixin, it's really cunning...
The lively audition is over, and the sixth child has entered the semi-finals.The rematch will be held on the second day, and the players who have entered the rematch will continue to compete the next day.
"Father is amazing!" Shen Chengfeng trotted all the way over, his face full of pride.
"Hey!" Lao Liu hugged him and smiled happily.
"That's it, it doesn't matter who he is!" Lin Cheng also looked proud, his man is just powerful.
For the praise of his wife and son, Lao Liu kept giggling, feeling very sweet in his heart.
