Heavenly Gourmet

Chapter 227

"But I have a question."

Wu Qingzhi frowned slightly as he watched Lin Hai's operation.

"what is the problem?"

Everyone else looked at Wu Qingzhi.

"Qinglong dumplings seem to be the most proud noodle creation of the Southwest Noodle King. I remember someone went to ask him how to make Qinglong dumplings, but was turned down."

Wu Qingzhi said slowly.

These words startled the other three people present, and their faces suddenly became strange.

Since the reception was rejected, it means that the method of making Qinglong dumplings must be a secret that is not passed on, so ordinary people can't learn how to make it at all.

How did this guy know this? And it seems that he has quite mastered the method of making Qinglong dumplings.

"Who is behind this guy? It seems like he can make any dish."

Zhou Qing sighed and tried to guess who Lin Hai was.

Whether it is Lin Hai's knife skills or carving skills, it is not something that ordinary people can learn.

Therefore, there must be a very powerful master behind this kid.

"Tsk, what kind of expert is that? He's just a chef in a small restaurant."

Xu Ding didn't want this guy to have someone behind him. He and the other party were not on good terms. What if the person behind this guy wanted to retaliate against him?

Suddenly, he remembered something.

Something related to Lin Hai.

Fighting chefs!

"That mysterious woman seemed to care about this guy a lot. Could it be that there is some kind of connection between that woman and this guy?"

Xu Ding thought to himself, and there was a little more fear in his eyes when he looked at Lin Hai.

If we let the other party win the championship of this Youth Chef Competition, it will be difficult to trip him up in the future.

Liu Dongjin looked at Lin Hai, then at Li Chen.

The candidates for the provincial food competition this time are basically between these two people.

At this time, Lin Hai had no idea what the judges were thinking. After squeezing the Qinglong grass juice into the flour, he poured the water and stirred it at the same time.

His technique was very professional. He stirred it ten times clockwise and ten times counterclockwise.

Soon, the originally loose flour began to form small lumps, and then became a small dough.

After Lin Hai kneaded the small lumps into dough, he picked up the plastic wrap and fermented the entire basin containing the dough.

The dough was fermenting, and Lin Hai was not idle either.

He put the bowl containing the dough somewhere else, then picked up the other ingredients and put them on the stove.

These ingredients include green dragon grass, shiitake mushrooms, green onions, and some other seasoning ingredients.

Very simple.

However, the simplest things are often the most difficult.

Because, in this kind of competition-style dishes, it is difficult for simple ingredients to bring out the ultimate deliciousness.

Especially pasta like dumplings, which are different from other delicacies.

Lin Hai looked at the ingredients and did not panic. Instead, he processed them step by step.

Taking some more Green Dragon Grass, Lin Hai picked up a kitchen knife. A few cold lights flashed, and the Green Dragon Grass instantly turned into grass foam.

Knife skills!

Lin Hai used his swordsmanship!

"Falling Snow Sword Technique!"

Liu Dongjin's pupils shrank slightly, and a figure appeared in his mind.

"Lin Xin, this is your son."

Liu Dongjin smiled.

Some past events in my mind also emerged.

After Lin Hai displayed his knife skills, the originally complete ingredients continued to become fillings. He placed all the fillings separately on the plate. After a while, the plate in front of Lin Hai became colorful.

After processing these ingredients, Li Chen has also completed the preparation of the ingredients.

Lin Hai glanced at Li Chen, then put all the fillings into another bowl and continued to stir until all the fillings were blended together.

The space, which was originally filled with the aroma of flour, burst out with an even stronger fragrance again.

This aroma amplifies the flavors of mushrooms and green onions, and then quickly spreads around.

"This guy, why does he have to make dumplings when he can't just participate in the competition..."

When Zhou Buyan smelled the fragrance, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lin Hai.

You know, Jiaozi is the least favored one in the competition.

Whether it is adjusting the filling or changing the taste, it is more difficult than ordinary dishes.

What's more, not all judges like eating dumplings.

"court death!"

Xu Changqing snorted coldly. Making dumplings?

It seemed that in all the competitions, only one person had ever made dumplings.

King of the southwest.

However, he only competed in the pasta competition.

Xu Changqing regained confidence in himself.

Lin Hai was ruined. He had failed from the moment he thought of making dumplings.

As long as he cooks the dishes well in this round of competition, the probability of defeating Li Chen is still very high.

Afterwards, Xu Changqing began to concentrate more on preparing his dishes.

As for the last contestant, his dish was simple.

Fried potato slices.

The only ingredients he got were enough to cook shredded potatoes.

I saw that his knife skills were pretty good. Although he had no knife skills, he cut each potato shred into the same size without any major differences.

Many people were also looking at the last contestant. Although the former was miserable, he was able to enter the third round and was also a relatively strong contestant.

Drain the water, heat the oil, add the seasoning ingredients and start stir-frying.

After about a few minutes, a plate of shredded potatoes was ready.

The steaming shredded potatoes have a unique flavor, and the aroma spreads all around, causing bursts of exclamations.

"Wow, he actually made the shredded potatoes."

"Yeah, this plate of shredded potatoes looks pretty good."

"If someone can make it to the third round without being eliminated, how can his cooking skills be bad?"

Some viewers stared at the plate of shredded potatoes, licked their lips, and talked about it.

"I'm done. Can I enter the review now?"

The last contestant raised his head, looked at the judges, and spoke slowly.

"of course can."

Liu Dongjin nodded slightly. This was indeed a promising talent.

Being able to stay so calm and not give up on himself even when he was the last one and the only ingredient left was potatoes, he can be considered an excellent chef.

Immediately afterwards, the last contestant brought out his dish and placed it in front of Liu Dongjin.

Liu Dongjin signaled the other party to return to the competition stage, and he and Chen Cheng and others began to taste the shredded potatoes.

"Well, these shredded potatoes are sour, spicy and delicious. It's a rare home-cooked dish."

Wu Qingzhi swallowed the shredded potatoes in one gulp, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Although the shredded potatoes are simple, they taste great under the skillful hands of the contestant.

Afterwards, the four judges gave corresponding scores.

Eighty percent.

When the 80 points appeared, everyone present was shocked.

No one could have imagined that a dish of shredded potatoes could get a good score of 80 points.

As for the contestant, he was also surprised when he heard that he got 80 points.

I originally thought I could only get the lowest score.

But unexpectedly, it is not only not low, but also at a medium level.

A blessing in disguise.

Being able to get such a score, I am afraid that after this young chef competition is over, many restaurants will extend olive branches to me.

On the other hand, Lin Hai and others were busy and intense.

When Lin Hai saw that the dough in the basin had fermented, he tore off the plastic wrap and took the dough to the chopping board.

Next is the most important point, which also affects the taste of dumplings.

Knead the dough.

The strength required to knead the dough requires not only strength, but more importantly, skill.

Lin Hai was seen kneading the dough, kneading it continuously in a clockwise direction. His technique seemed very smooth, as if it had some kind of shape.

"This technique... seems to be Cloud Hand."

Wu Qingzhi stared at Lin Hai's technique closely, with a hint of surprise on his face.

"Do you remember that the Southwest Noodle King also performed Tai Chi Cloud Hands when kneading dough?"

Liu Dongjin recalled and said to everyone.

"Cloud Hands..."

"It is said that this method can make the dough more fragrant."

Zhou Qing said, "I've always wanted to see what Cloud Hands can do. Now I know what it is. It uses the opposite method to make the dough more resilient. No wonder the Southwest Noodle King was able to get the first place in noodles. He really has some skills."
