Mr. Minguo's kitchen

Put the cut tofu into the high-quality broth with a relatively light force, and use chopsticks to open it with a skillful force to form a blooming golden autumn chrysanthemum. Put a vermilion wolfberry in the center of the flower and boil it The clear chicken soup is like a transparent yellow lake under the setting sun, which dyes the white tasteless tofu with color and fragrance. From a distance, it seems to be shining!It's tempting.This is the best golden chrysanthemum tofu.

Although there is still the last process of judges tasting and scoring, everyone present knows that the winner of this first round of competition must be the young gentleman Youfeng Laiju.

Hui Xian Tang actually lost at the beginning...

At this time, Duan Fangyuan had lost the smirk that was on his mouth at the beginning, his face was so gloomy that water dripped out, but because of his face, he had to make a generous gesture, it was really embarrassing for him who is always conceited.The judges were also shocked and looked at each other in blank dismay.After tasting the works of the two, they became even more speechless.

I don’t know what Lin Weirui put in the soup base, but Feng Laiju unexpectedly found that the soup was clear and delicious. The “chrysanthemum” tofu, which was as thin as a hair, soaked in the soup base, had a deep taste. Tofu is the real meaning. It melts in your mouth without any extra chewing!No matter the chefs on the stage or those in the audience, they were all amazed in their hearts: Which family and school of kitchen knife skills is this?I have never seen it before, it is really the ultimate knife skill that subverts people's imagination.

Duan Fangyuan thought of his master's knife technique that was once named the best knife in the kitchen, and for a moment he wondered whether the knife technique that he had thought about for a long time was as good as the young man in front of him?

This is a chrysanthemum tofu that is perfect both in knife skills and taste.Against the backdrop of such a delicacy, his opponent's work looks a little bleak, with no sense of surprise cut, and a regular soup base.

In this game, the loss was too obvious.

In full view, the eight judges on the high stage could only pinch their noses and announced that the winner was Youfeng Laiju.

"Okay!" The audience Chang Yanxi applauded, and the applause was thunderous for a while.

"The chrysanthemum floating in the soup is really lifelike, it's worthy of Wei Rui's handwriting." In the auditorium, Yu Zuotang stroked his beard and said with a smile.Although Marshal Ye has not visited Lin Weirui's residence for a long time since he arrived in Peiping, he still wants to stand for his friend in today's competition.Yuan Xiaolan on the side also nodded, not looking at the people around her, and only now came to her senses, under the leadership of Young Master Chang, the sound of applause and applause might blow off the roof in the next second.

Lin Weirui didn't think it was a big deal, after all, his sword skills were inherently gifted, and with more than ten years of training in his previous life, he naturally belonged to the upper class.So very calm.On the other hand, his opponents, the younger and inexperienced apprentices were a little panicked.

Duan Fangyuan's big apprentice worried: "Master, this... Youfeng Laiju has already won the first round, what should we do! Will it..."

Duan Fangyuan was just getting annoyed, now when he heard such dejected words, he immediately lowered his voice and scolded him angrily: "Trash! Why panic, this first competition was just a fluke for him. We have already prepared for the second round, and we will definitely win it, action Hurry up, and bring me that soaked sea cucumber!" The second round of questions was very rare, and he didn't believe that Lin Weirui, who was in his early 20s, could not only achieve something in sword skills, but also in other areas. blossom everywhere.

Then this person is not a mortal, but a god.But people are people, where are the gods?

Sure enough, when the topic came out, many people were surprised.

The title is simple to say, there is only one word in black and white - feast.

feast?What is a banquet, a banquet is a banquet dish.There are many famous banquets for Chinese people. In ancient times, there were large-scale banquets such as township drinking ceremony, banquet for hundreds of officials, banquet for thousands of elders, and banquet for fixed tripods. Small ones such as family banquets, casual banquets, wedding banquets, funeral banquets, and wedding banquets. , farewell banquet and so on.It can be said that there is no feast without food.

So this topic is too broad, and there are too many dishes that can be cooked, which makes people lose their mind for no reason.

Yu Zuotang couldn't think of the dishes that Lin Weirui could cook for a while. It can be said that most of the dishes that you have come to live with are not home-cooked dishes, but whichever is more in line with the theme of the banquet, then there are more choices.

"Xiao Lan, what kind of dishes do you think this Weirui can cook? I really don't have a clue about this topic," Yu Zuotang asked Yuan Xiaolan who was closer to Lin Weirui.

"No rush, I think Wei Rui already has something in mind." Yuan Xiaolan is an old god.

Indeed, Lin Weirui on the stage made a decision after a little thought. He took out the pen pinned to his shirt, took a piece of paper, wrote down the menu in a flash, and began to give Xiaobao and the other two people from Fengtian the menu. Help the kitchen disciples assign tasks.He even moved faster than Duan Fang Yuan who already knew the topic, after all, there is only one hour, and to prepare a banquet for eight people, the time is still very tight.But Duan Fangyuan had a guilty conscience and pretended to be contemplative and hesitant.

The first thing Lin Weirui made was the cold dishes that did not require too much heat and coldness. The completion time of the dishes was early and late. It is a habit that Lin Weirui has developed in his nearly ten years of chef career in his previous life until the completion time of each dish.

He took the broccoli that had been blanched in boiling water—the dark green color is very refreshing in summer, and it was fried in the oil pan with tender yellow potato cubes, bright red tomato cubes and light purple onion slices. Collision of colors is particularly eye-catching.The addition of broth and boiling fire adds a bit of savory and lively.

In another pot, pour flour and butter and fry until golden brown, then add milky white fresh cream and fry until it becomes a creamy paste.The creamy and juicy fruits and vegetables meet unexpectedly. At the end, green peas are added for the final embellishment, and it becomes a refreshing and delicious butterscotch that combines Chinese and Western.The fragrance of milk and the fragrance of vegetables and fruits are mixed during heating to form a peculiar food aroma, which makes people appetite unconsciously.

When making Buttercream, Xiaobao had already ripped open the mandarin fish and marinated it. He had never seen this dish cooked before, because it looked more like a foreigner’s vegetable salad—in fact, it was prepared Except for a mixed fried rice dish that he had heard of before, he had no clue about the other items on the menu.

In fact, the best time to eat this dish is not when it is out of the pan, it tastes better after cooling for a while.But Xiaobao was still very greedy when he smelled it, and when he turned around, he saw that the young master stole a piece without paying attention, and swallowed the dates whole, but he still couldn't hide its delicious taste.Xiaobao felt completely overwhelmed by the food in his mouth, even though it was only a vegetarian dish!Although he has already seen the old and the young invented new dishes too many times, so he is more confident.

While the mandarin fish was being marinated, Lin Weirui started a special dessert. He was still wearing the white shirt, without a special chef uniform, and only wore the same white apron around his body.Rolling up the sleeves, the hands full of freehand style add water to the soybean powder to make a paste, boil it with broth and fresh cream, and keep stirring clockwise until the juice is all collected, and it condenses into a jelly-like paste.Sprinkle fried diced steamed buns on the surface of the bowl like feeding pigeons—there was no bread, so Lin Weirui used steamed buns, and it was another dessert with Chinese characteristics but using Western ingredients and methods—cream bean paste soup.

While Lin Weirui was making intensive preparations, their opponents also vowed to conquer.When Duan Fangyuan got the title before, he had already thought about many dishes that fit the theme of "banquet".In the end, it was decided to make a version for a family banquet.But their family banquet is not a banquet when ordinary people reunite, but a family banquet of emperors.

Duan Fangyuan was trained by the old imperial chef, so he is quite familiar with the things in the palace.Pea yellow is served as a cold dish, and the pea yellow cake of Huixiantang is also a must in Beiping. The hot dishes are delicacies from mountains and seas, which are full of royal style - grilled preserved swallows, shark's fin in casserole, ants and sea cucumbers, braised deer tendons, and seasonal vegetables The assorted ice bowl is the signature game of Huixian Hall.This is their "Royal Banquet" today.

A rich aroma filled the surroundings, and the people in the auditorium were already in a commotion.

"Youfeng seems to have asked for something here. It has been brought up."

"It's a clean iron plate."

"What are they going to do?" Soon, they knew what Lin Weirui was going to do.
