Food starts with noodles

Even looking forward to closing down early.

For being so rebellious, the old man was kind enough not to hang him up and beat him.

Next, the juniors of each family began to enter the arena.

Xu Zhuo, as the representative of Xu's restaurant, naturally ended up too.

However, he didn't want to pretend to be aggressive as the old man expected to intimidate the audience.

Boss Xu always had the idea of ​​coping with the errand.

Let's just go through the motions, everyone has no grievances or enmities, so why step on others.

Besides, the rewards for this sparring are completely uninteresting.

If the reward is a set of houses in the provincial capital or the like, you can fight for it.

But the reward was Zhao Jinma's advice, Xu Zhuo really wasn't interested at all.

This is not because Zhao Jinma's culinary skills are not as good as the old man's. In fact, even if Zhao Jinma is a top chef, Xu Zhuo has no intention of learning from him.

Compared with growing up under the guidance of others, Xu Zhuo is more willing to explore by himself.

Even without a system in hand, he doesn't like that kind of cramming education.

Walking to the sideboard, Xu Zhuo picked out a few cucumbers.

There were so many people present, one coir raincoat cucumber might not be enough, so I made a few more.

He had just picked out cucumbers when several young people came over.

He grabbed two of them and left without even picking them.

Perfunctory can no longer be perfunctory.

Boss Xu was very happy.

It seems that there are quite a few people who have the same thoughts as me.

The next process should be easy...

Chapter 147 Don't Blame Me You're Welcome

As a result, after 10 minutes, Boss Xu couldn't laugh anymore.

He thought that those who picked cucumbers would be a cucumber shooter or something.

It turned out that they were actually carving flowers.

Yes, it is carved.

A young man who was not as old as Xu Zhuo cut up a cucumber and made it look like a bamboo forest according to the color of the skin.

Xu Zhuo has heard of this dish before, what is it called 节高进.

The meaning is very good, it seems simple, but the practice is very cumbersome.

The bamboo decorations around the light are overwhelming.

Another person who also chose cucumbers is currently holding a kitchen knife and cutting cucumbers into slices as thin as a cicada's wings using the flat cutting method.

Then roll up the cucumber slices and place them on a plate.

Xu Zhuo knew that this dish was called "Sound Oil Cucumber".

Because the cucumber is cut with a flat cut, the edge of the knife is easy to deviate.

In addition, the cucumber rolls made should be consistent in height and thickness.

Relatively speaking, cutting coir raincoat cucumbers is really much simpler.

In the end, the one deliberately picked a somewhat crooked cucumber.

Hollow out the middle, cut off the two ends, and make it look like a flat boat.

Prepared corn with pine nuts is placed on the boat, and at the end, a spoonful of soup for corn with pine nuts is added to soak the boat in it.

It really feels like a boat with blue waves rippling.

Rely on!

The more Boss Xu watched, the more unhappy he became.

Is it really necessary to force Lao Tzu to use a unique trick?

Boss Xu sighed lightly.

Since you are showing off your skills, don't blame me for being rude.

He washed the five pickled cucumbers and placed them neatly on the chopping board.

I chose a longer slicer knife from the knife block.

Then he took a long towel from a nearby towel rack and covered his eyes.

Now, everyone around couldn't sit still.

"Whose child is this? What are you going to do blindfolded?"

"Old Xu's family, I heard that he has been ignorant, and Lao Xu was so angry with him."

"This kid must have watched too many cartoons. Now that he is blindfolded, he is probably going to cut the cucumber."

"For the chefs present, cutting coir raincoat cucumbers with their eyes closed is like drinking cold water. This kid probably thinks that no one else can cut them, right?"

"Hehe, just wait and see this kid make a fool of himself, he has no foundation at all."

"I really don't understand, what is the purpose of Lao Xu bringing him here, as a background board for everyone?"

Even the old man couldn't stand it anymore.

"This brat is really messing around. If you cut the coir raincoat and cucumber, you should cut them properly. It's useless to clean them up."

"It's good to make sheep's trotters or stewed noodles. The mung bean paste is also good. The worst thing is braised pork rice..."

The old man was a little anxious, he was going to show off his grandson in front of everyone, but now Xu Zhuo planned to blindfolded and cut cucumbers, which is not attractive at all, okay?

Blindfolded and cutting a coir raincoat cucumber...

The old man stared blankly at Xu Zhuo in the arena, he had no thoughts at the moment, only full of shock and disbelief.

Because now Boss Xu is actually cutting five coir raincoat cucumbers at a time.

This operation...

Everyone present counted as one, and none of them dared to try this way.

They also cut it blindfolded, but it was one root.

Also cut several at the same time, but not blindfolded.

And if you cut at the same time, no more than three.

Because after more than three, the plane of the knife edge is not easy to grasp.

They really have never tried this blindfolded cutting operation.

It's not that it can't be done, but it's too easy to overturn and can't afford to lose that person.

Boss Xu's hands were nimble. He quickly cut five cucumbers to the end, then rolled the cucumbers forward, and began to cut diagonally.

He cut very fast, the blade was flying up and down, and he couldn't even see clearly.

When the old man saw this, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "You brat, your knife skills seem to have improved again."

Zhao Jinma turned his face to look at the old man, his eyes were a little complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The gossip at the scene has disappeared now.

At this time, no one said that Xu Zhuo was an incompetent person.

Those people who laughed at Xu Zhuo seemed to have swallowed a fly.

Really answered that sentence, slapping the face too quickly is like a tornado.

As far as this knife skill is concerned, does he seem to be an ignorant person?

After the cucumbers were cut, Xu Zhuo took off the towel, grabbed the two ends of the five cucumbers, and shook the cucumbers away like playing with a puller.

The knife edge is uniform and the depth is consistent.

There is no breakage when the five sticks are pulled apart at the same time. This knife skill is really good enough.

Next, Xu Zhuo brought a tray and started making cold sauce.

Pull and soak the cucumbers for a few minutes, then remove.

Restore the cucumber to the way it was when it was not cut, and wipe off the sauce on the surface with oil-absorbing paper.

Then just put it on the plate like this, and Xu Zhuo's coir raincoat cucumber is ready.

Soon, everyone's dishes were ready.

Maybe it's because of time constraints, or maybe it's because I don't want to show my true skills.

Almost half of the people present made cold dishes, and everyone tried their best to pose.

Various shapes emerge in endlessly.

Xu Zhuo even saw peacocks made of cucumbers, flowers made of carrots, roses carved of watermelons, and even various birds and beasts, which made people dazzled.

Only Boss Xu's plate arrangement is relatively simple and unpretentious, even a bit earthy.

It doesn't match at all with the surrounding flowers, birds, fish and insects.

But now no one underestimated Xu Zhuo anymore.

And all the famous chefs present know that the more you get back to basics, the deeper your understanding of culinary skills.

When everyone was still showing off their skills and kung fu, only Xu Zhuo chose to be reserved.

A few old men whispered to each other, constantly praising Xu Zhuo for his deep understanding of cooking.

In fact, Boss Xu really didn't know what to pose for.

He is used to being lazy, and everyone else is trying their best to show themselves, but he is the only one looking forward to the end.

Then what to do.

The celebrity chefs started off, everyone with their chopsticks.

While tasting, comment on the pros and cons of the dishes.

The old man also went down, but he took Xu Zhuo's cucumber and ate half of it, and sat back down after saying it was delicious.

After returning to his seat, he clicked his mouth: "It's past twelve o'clock and it's not over yet. I'm a little hungry."

Xu Wenhai didn't eat, and wanted to get half a cucumber.

But in the end he was not as thick-skinned as the old man, so he held back in the end.

Wei Junming took the chopsticks, tasted them around, and praised everyone.

Finally, he came to Xu Zhuo, tasted a coir raincoat cucumber, gave Xu Zhuo a thumbs up, and then returned to his seat.

The meaning of this thumb is self-evident. Of all the dishes present, Xu Zhuo's cucumber tastes the best.

Zhao Jinma took the chopsticks and tasted it too.

Except for the shock when he ate the coir raincoat cucumber, the more he tried the other dishes, the more disappointed he became.

After tasting it, he sighed, a little disappointed: "Why do you pursue the shape so persistently, and don't improve the level of seasoning?"

"Cooking is about making the ingredients delicious, not fancy!"
