I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

But this sense of ritual is indispensable.

The two of them are locked in a room in private, you come and go, it's so lively, you can also decide a winner or a winner.

But if you say it, others may not believe it, and if others believe it, they may not take it to heart.

Why do all kinds of competitions have to be so ostentatious?
It is because of this sense of ritual.

The more witnesses and the more formal, the more weighty the result will be.

Embarrassing is more embarrassing.

Make money, not shabby.

The competition officially started, and the cooks of Mingyue Building acted quickly.

Yin Xuan poked his head, instead of cooking his own dishes, he watched with interest—the soup was already cooked, and the remaining steps were relatively simple.

Cook it now, but you have to wait for the other side to finish it. If the dish is cold and lacks some flavor, then the loss outweighs the gain.

But wait now, wait for the other side to make it, and then bring out the dishes to kill people. No, it's a fair and objective comparison.

The theme is "boiled vegetables".

"Shuizhu" is a cooking technique, and the essence of Datang's "boiled in water" lies in "soup".

The chef of Mingyuelou is very sophisticated in handling ingredients.

At least you only need to wash the mutton several times with onion and ginger water to remove the smell of the mutton as much as possible.

When it was time to cook the soup, the cook raised his head and gave Yin Xuan a vicious look, then secretly poured some ingredients into it from a small pot.

This is his unique recipe!

Yin Xuan curled his lips, and with his toes, he could guess what was poured in. It was either hawthorn or orange peel. These two unorthodox ingredients are very effective in getting rid of the smell of mutton.

Outside the crowd, in the shed.

Li Shimin looked at the two people on the table with his head, and was a little surprised: "I see that the cook next to him has been working for a long time. Why is the store just watching and not doing anything?"

Wei Zheng frowned, and shook his head: "I'm afraid the store owner is a little too big."

Li Lizhi snorted: "That's not true."

"Brother Zhengyang started preparing the soup last night. He boiled the soup all night. When he came over this morning, neither my sister nor I could eat!"

"Even the bento for Lulu to go to school was prepared by brother Zhengyang last night, so he didn't take care of it."

Li Shu also nodded: "I went to the Shangshi Bureau to find out. The key to boiled vegetables is the soup. Brother Zhengyang has already cooked the soup, and the dishes are more than half done."

"The dishes are ready now, but it's not time for judging. When the dishes are cold, the dishes will lose more than half of their flavor. How can such a thing be done?"

Li Shimin stroked his beard, nodded and laughed loudly: "So that's the case, but I don't understand."

Wei Zheng opened his mouth, looked at the two princesses, and sighed lightly.

There is something wrong with these two princesses.

Why didn't His Majesty notice anything?
It wasn't just Li Shimin who started talking.

The crowd also discussed it.

"What's the matter, the store owner of Tongfu Restaurant still doesn't do anything?"

"That's right, the cooks in Mingyue Tower have already started cooking soup."

"Shouldn't it be admitting defeat?" Someone raised such a question.

Some people shook their heads: "No way, after such a big battle, wouldn't it be too useless if you admit defeat?"

Someone had a bad temper and was already gearing up: "Damn it, if he admits defeat, wouldn't he be playing us like a monkey? I came all the way to Huaizhen Square just to see him admit defeat?"

"If he dares to admit defeat, damn it, I'll take his arm off!"

The person next to him rubbed him: "The bad guys are waiting there."

His momentum gradually weakened, but his mouth was still very strong: "No, what's wrong with the bad people, I am not, do you think I will be afraid of them?"

"Huh? I'm afraid of them?"

Some people frowned and worried: "I heard that the reason why Mingyuelou wants to compete with Tongfu Restaurant seems to be because of a secret recipe of Tongfu Restaurant."

"Do you think this is Mingyue Tower bullying others?"

There is always a market for conspiracy theories.

As soon as he said this, he immediately attracted many conspiracy theory enthusiasts around him, whispering and discussing in a low voice.

The shopkeeper of Mingyue Tower was also at a loss, not quite sure why Yin Xuan hadn't moved yet, but there was no trace of joy on his face.

It was precisely because of Yin Xuan's attitude that he felt a little uneasy.

He still remembered that early in the morning, the clay urn brought by Yin Xuan was now simmering on the charcoal stove, so it should be Yin Xuan's support, right?
But what is that thing? Not to mention the movement, but there is no fragrance at all.

After the cook of Mingyuelou finished cooking and fished out the meat and lamb bones, Yin Xuan finally made a movement.

He took out a cabbage.

Cabbage is no stranger to people in Datang. Of course, its name is still "Song", but it is such a cabbage that can be seen everywhere that attracts the attention of the crowd.

I have been single for a long time, even looking at a cabbage, I feel that it has beautiful features.

It was the first time they had seen such a plump and juicy cabbage.

Yin Xuan took a deep breath and peeled off a piece of cabbage leaf, feeling pain in his heart, this piece was worth ten cents.

After peeling off nearly two hundred coins, only cabbage hearts less than one-third in size remained, Yin Xuan finally stopped and cut off the excess cabbage.

The kitchen knife in his hand was turning like a flower, cutting the cabbage heart into the shape of a budding flower bud.

Take the pot and boil the water.

It was not easy for Yin Xuan to use the stove, and it was the high-speed rail that helped to light the fire. This clumsy appearance made the crowd boo even louder.

Can a cook who can't even start a fire be a good cook?
You know, if you want to send your children to learn cooking, you have to burn the fire for at least three years, and then you can continue to learn how to cook.
They felt that there was no need to watch it any longer, Mingyue Tower would definitely win, this comparison was like adults beating children.

Yin Xuan ignored the boos of the crowd.

Do you know what social death is?
Ever tried running and wrestling and falling under your skirt?
Did you accidentally tear off your skirt when you knew what it was called?

No, the fire was not lit, which is a big deal.

A pot of boiling water was boiled, which stunned many people who knew how to cook.

Boiling water at this time?Are you going to make soup now?

Yin Xuan's actions answered them, no.

He directly threw the cabbage into the boiling water, blanched the cabbage until it changed color slightly, immediately took it out, and put it into the ice water prepared aside.

The ice was also bought from the system mall, and it cost him ten cents for a mere two taels of ice.

What is a profiteer?
That's it.

Wait until the cabbage is completely cooled and release your enthusiasm in the ice water, then you can fish it out for the next step.
