The daily live broadcast of the cute pets of the empire

After 15 minutes, the works of the first group of three contestants have been sent to several judges one after another.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the three contestants in this group are all food anchors on the live broadcast platform.Among them, Ah Hui, who is the most popular, is good at various improved recipes, a female contestant named An Qi is good at making pastries and desserts, and Jiang Ke is best at cooking with various new varieties of vegetables.

"This honey red heart fruit tastes pretty good," Lukas nodded after tasting the dish of the first female contestant, Angie, "The heat and time are very well mastered, and the red heart fruit is also well pre-processed , especially the honey added in it, it always feels like a light floral scent, which should be specially prepared by her."

Director Wang Rui put down the knife and fork in his hand and said: "Yes, the idea is very clever, but it's a pity that she chose to change the ingredients before the competition, which will probably become a big penalty in the future."

The female judge next to her couldn't help showing a regretful expression.

Although the contestants knew that points would be deducted for changing the ingredients, they didn't know that the points in this item were actually far more than they imagined. Once a player chose to change the ingredients, then unless the remaining two All players made major mistakes, otherwise it would be almost impossible to win.

Skip the regrettable first dish of honey red heart fruit, and the second rib soup was quickly served.

"Hey, this is the dish made by Master Sun Chang's apprentice." Seeing the label on the edge of the porcelain plate, Lukas immediately showed an expectant expression. Delicious, the flavors of ribs and lotus root blend very well, oh, by the way, the taste of this lotus root should have been steamed beforehand."

As an ingredient that has only slowly started to be used in recent years, lotus root can actually be regarded as a new type of vegetable to some extent. At first, the taste of lotus root was even worse, and the bitterness and spiciness in it were almost impossible to remove.

Although the improved lotus root is no longer so difficult to swallow, it is still difficult to put it into ordinary dishes if it is not handled properly.

Lucas couldn't help sighing in his heart, this Ah Hui is indeed the apprentice of the state banquet master.It is really rare to be able to cook with ingredients that I am completely unfamiliar with in a short period of time.

Ignoring Lucas's compliment, Sun Chang's expression was not good, he just took a sip of the pork rib soup and put the spoon aside: "No, the heat is wrong, the time is wrong, and the bitterness in the lotus root has not been removed at all. .”

"That..." Lucas gave him a helpless look, especially wanting to say that he is also his apprentice after all, so don't be so harsh.

Although this pork rib soup is not completely flawless, it can also be said that the flaws are not concealed. If there is no accident, it should be able to advance directly.

"I know what you want to say," Sun Chang shook his head, "It's because I'm his master that I have to be strict with him. Don't need to say anything else, let's bring the third dish first."

Knowing that the other party is stubborn and cannot be persuaded by himself, Lucas can only temporarily put aside the previous topic, and reached out to the staff to bring up the last contestant's work.

...

According to the rules of the third game, all the conversations between the judges cannot be broadcast live outside before the final score.

That is to say, even if a few contestants can see the judges' seats not far away, they can only judge their scores by observing the expressions of a few judges.

In front of the cooking table, Ah Hui frowned and paced anxiously on the spot.

The assistant next to him really couldn't see it anymore, so he could only comfort him in a low voice: "It will be fine, don't worry, isn't your master also in the judges, he will definitely not give you too low a score."

"Who knows if he will give me a low score?" Ah Hui took a deep breath, "It's not like you don't know about my master. He has a stubborn personality and is usually the strictest to me. Let alone give me a high score. Thank goodness for deliberately lowering my score."

"Probably not." The assistant was also a little uneasy by what he said, "I think the pork rib soup you made before is very good, no matter how low the score is, it won't be so low."

Ah Hui shook her head, just as she was about to speak, the scores for the third game over there had already come out.

Ah Hui finally ranked second, a full six points behind Jiang Ke, who was in first place.

However, this is not the most important thing. What makes Ah Hui even more angry is that, just like what he said just now, his master did not give him too high a score. Compared with the high score given to Jiang Ke, it is dazzling. It's just unbearable.

"Well, don't be too sad. This is only the first half of the game, and there is still the second half. It's hard to tell the final outcome," the assistant couldn't help comforting, "...and then again, it's just a game Forget it, so what if you can't win in the end, this is your first time participating in an open competition outside, even if you lose, no one will say anything, at worst we can come back next year to participate."

Ah Hui nodded with an ugly face.

It would be great if this game was really as unimportant as the other party said, but it was not the case.

The master is already very old, and it is uncertain when he will retire, and he is the youngest apprentice around the master, no matter in aptitude or ability, he is inferior to the other senior brothers and sisters, he needs to win in this competition , so as to use it as a bargaining chip to fight for the inheritance of the hotel that Master left behind.

Yes, he knew that his chances of winning were not great, but if he couldn't win the game, then he really didn't even have one chip left.

Now that the network is being updated so fast, no matter how popular an anchor is, there will always be a day when his popularity will decline. He must leave more ways for himself.

So the next game can't be lost anyway.

In the second half of the game, the program team provided a total of three ingredients. Because Jiang Ke had the highest score, he had the priority to choose, and Ah Hui and the girl could only choose from the remaining two ingredients.

Carrots, cucumbers and potatoes, ginger chose potatoes, and the remaining two are not the ingredients that Ah Hui is good at using.

If he still had some hesitation just now, then looking at the ingredients in front of him now, Ah Hui finally made up his mind.

Calling the assistant to her side, Ah Hui lowered her voice and said, "There are still more than ten minutes before the start of the next match, so you can help me with one thing later..."

The assistant was taken aback by his words, and after a long time, he finally nodded: "Okay, I see."

...

Looking at the ingredients provided by the program group in front of him, Jiang Ke was silent.

Mmm, purple potatoes.

I think when he first came here, he was still entangled with the fans in the live broadcast room about whether potatoes were purple. Now, even he has started to cook with purple potatoes.

It is not accurate to say purple. The potatoes here are actually a kind of reddish purple, and most of the color is concentrated on the skin. It was still the color of ordinary potatoes, not as abrupt as Jiang Ke imagined.

Just after peeling the potatoes with his supernatural power, Jiang Ke sniffed, and suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickly called Chen Yan over.

"What's the matter?" Chen Yan was washing other things nearby, when she heard Jiang Ke's voice, she hurried over.

Jiang Ke hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head: "Meow."

Nothing happened, maybe I made a mistake.

Chen Yan scratched her hair, and returned to the original position to wash vegetables in a daze.

Jiang Ke replaced it with a new potato and continued to peel and cut it into pieces.

Since the potatoes in this world have a strange taste, they must be processed in advance before they can be used.Ginger can simply spread the cut potatoes with salt, put them in the oven and bake them slightly, then put them in a steamer and steam them over high heat to soften them, take them out and press them into mashed potatoes while they are hot, and set them aside to cool for later use.

Because this competition not only needs to use the ingredients provided by the program group, but also requires that there must be vegetables and meat.After Jiang Ke processed the potatoes, he quickly chopped the beef filling, and added various seasonings to the beef filling, stirred in one direction, and then poured in the cooled mashed potatoes.

Prepare a piece of oily bean curd and spread it on the cutting board, spread a thin layer of starch water on it, spread the stirred meat filling evenly on it, and take another piece of oily bean curd that has also been coated with starch water , press it on top of the meat filling, flatten it with a tool, and then cut it into strips for later use.

Pick up the oil pan, heat it up to [-]% to [-]% heat, carefully put the minced meat into the oil pan, fry until the surface is golden, a golden and crispy fried loose meat is completely done.

Over there, Chen Yan couldn't bear it anymore, and quickly picked up a piece of loose meat and put it in his mouth before Jiang Ke could put it on the plate, and then couldn't help but open his eyes wide in an instant.

"I won," Chen Yan nodded while eating, "I think as long as the judges score normally, you will definitely win this dish. It's really delicious."

"It's good as long as it's delicious, but it still depends on whether it can meet the tastes of several judges in the end."

Because there is no way to eat human food, and the vegetables used are not in the system, Jiang Ke is actually not very sure about the taste of the dishes he cooks.

"Don't worry, it's definitely in line," looking at the subtitles displayed beside Jiang Ke, Chen Yan said hastily, "I've been to more than [-] famous restaurants and restaurants in the capital at least, and they can compare to yours." There are really not many dishes, don’t worry, you will definitely be able to advance smoothly.”

Jiang Ke meowed and nodded slightly.

Ten minutes later, the judges finished scoring, and the results were quickly displayed on the screen in front of the cooking table. Jiang Ke was still the first, and Ah Hui was second with a gap of nine points. The girl who was given a low score because she chose to change the ingredients, although she caught up with a little score, she still ranked third with a gap of [-] points from Ah Hui.

Seeing his ranking, Jiang Ke breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to talk to Chen Yan when he suddenly saw a notification pop up on the screen.

[Because some players applied for complaints, the results of the third match are temporarily invalid. Please stay calm and wait for the staff to investigate. 】

Result temporarily invalid?

What do you mean, Jiang Ke was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask Chen Yan to ask what was going on, when he saw the staff had already walked over.

"I'm very sorry. Some players complained and reported that you used ingredients outside the regulations in the game just now, so I need your cooperation to check it now. Please forgive me."
