you are in the depths of time [gl]

"The leader is—"

"Yu Chusheng."

After the host's voice fell, the people in the restaurant began to chatter, apparently discussing the answer given by the judges: Why did Yu Chusheng get the vote and not someone else?

The four judges of Yuexia Restaurant all sighed secretly in their hearts.

In fact, in their view, these two people have their own merits.

Yu Chusheng's method perfectly restores the characteristics of the technique that will be lost, and integrates the unique flavor of the cured meat into the rice in a casserole method, which is much more difficult than cooking rice in an electric rice cooker.

Although the stewed rice is harder than the rice in the rice cooker, the locals really like this type of rice, especially children, who chew the surrounding layer of rice with relish.

Compared with his cooking content, Cheng Youyou's is a bit monotonous.

The advantage is that such a simple and quick method can make more people feel the joy of cooking, and as long as the materials are used properly, the setting of the rice cooker is naturally much more convenient than people trying their best to watch the fire.

But even though the taste was quite delicious the moment it was put into the mouth, in terms of layering, they thought it was still slightly inferior to Yu Chusheng.

What's more, Yuexia Restaurant has the longest history in the capital, and it is also a gourmet restaurant that is good at ancient cooking methods. It has inherited countless secret recipes of palace cooking. Every chef and apprentice will have a concept in their hearts:

There are no shortcuts in cooking.

The taste reflected by the complicated craftsmanship will be superior to that measured by those western precision instruments, or cooked by modern simple methods.

This is what they insist on.

Although the considerations of the four were slightly different, in essence, they all voted for Yu Chusheng in the end.

……

Xie Tiao naturally knew their choice. The moment the host announced that she had won the votes, she turned her head and looked at the chef of the restaurant next to her for a few months, and then she calmly looked away.

Ying sat on the farthest side, and whispered into Xie Ruo's ear next to him:

"Are you and I the only ones who voted for Yoyo?"

Xie Tiao nodded slightly, but the magnitude was not obvious.

She knew what those chefs were thinking. Many ancient skills in Huaguo are gradually being lost and inherited. If even the Yuexia Restaurant is completely transformed into a new style, then these people who rely on old skills to eat will have no room to survive. .

But her point of view is not the same as these chefs.

After all, the rice hardness of claypot rice is quite special, and it can only be welcomed in certain regions, but the rice cooked in an electric rice cooker is fragrant and soft, and it will always be generally accepted.

In her opinion, Cheng Youyou's ability to use the rice cooker to achieve the same level of deliciousness as claypot rice is a victory in itself.

only……

She looked at the apprentice who was standing behind the cooking table, only showing thoughtful eyes, but not at all disappointed, and thought to herself:

If it was me, I would use a rice cooker to cook dishes that make these guys shut up and vote.

What will be the result if the rice cooker is better than the traditional one?

……

When Cheng Youyou heard the answer, she didn't feel disappointed at all, but as early as when she heard the question, she expected that the votes for this part would be lost.

After all, if Yu Chusheng lost to her in all his hometown cuisine, it would be a bit of a failure, and it would be a complete disappointment to Xie Tie's evaluation of him.

After thinking about it in her heart, she frankly accepted the fact that she lost in the first round, and decided to continue working hard in the remaining two rounds.

The host asked the two of them if they had any objections to the result, and both of them shook their heads.

So the host standing in the center immediately changed a word card. When he saw the content of the second link above, the smile on his lips grew bigger, obviously thinking that the content of this challenge was extremely interesting.

The three links of Yuexia Restaurant are slightly different from other culinary challenges.

Except that the theme will be clearly given in the first session, the organizers will randomly give questions in the second and third sessions. It may be a scene setting, it may be poetry, and what’s more, it may be medicinal food In terms of content, there are various methods of examination, and it all depends on the chef's on-the-spot adaptability.

There have been many times that, in addition to the first link, in the second and third links, both parties participating in the challenge gave up the competition because they could not solve the problem.

Immediately afterwards, the content announced by the host reflected this feature:

"Before telling the content of the second round of competition, here is a story. You all have opened a restaurant now, responsible for customizing food for the guests, and making a dish based on the same ingredient given by the diners."

"It's hot summer now, and a three-year-old kid came up to you with a bag of potato chips and asked you to make a dish he had never seen before, and the only thing you need to do is to satisfy his request .”

After the voice fell, she paused for a while, and quickly announced:
