Yipin Chef

It's not martial. "Jia Le said seriously with a straight face.

Ye Chengfeng was angry and funny: "Why are you so pedantic? Aren't ten-year cows and two-year cows both cows? What if Yangyi also uses two-year calves? Don't forget, you We will represent our country to fight against foreigners, if we lose, we will lose the face of the Chinese people.”

Jia Le still said firmly: "I am not as good as others, even if I lose, I will be convinced, but stealing opportunities is not my principle."

Ye Chengfeng knew his temper, and he had to stick to his belief no matter what, so he had no choice but to let him go.

Three days later, the competition officially started. The venue was Zhengyang Tower. Several referees were also sitting in their seats, preparing to taste new dishes. There were more onlookers preparing to watch the three chefs show off their skills. Naturally, they were looking forward to China One side wins.

"We played two-on-one, and we shouldn't lose to that foreigner." One of the onlookers said.The others nodded yes.

Thomson, Jiale, and Master Wei from Zhengyang Building each cooked a beef dish in the back kitchen. To show fairness and selflessness, they did not specify in advance which dish was cooked by whom, and the waiter in Zhengyang Building served it from the back kitchen. Come to the hall.

The first dish is grilled beef kebabs. Beef strips are sandwiched with shallots, shiitake mushrooms, carrots, and bellflowers, grilled with pine branches, and then sprinkled with white sesame seeds. It is colorful and fragrant.

The second dish is fried beef slices, served with mashed potatoes and dried broad beans, and some unknown yellow sauces, which are very fragrant.Surrounded by brown shiitake mushrooms and green cucumbers and yellow carrots also look beautiful,

The third dish is also sliced ​​beef, without ingredients, the sliced ​​meat is very thin, and there are small oil bubbles when it is served, covering the green cabbage heart, which is beautiful and generous.

Several referees tasted it carefully, and Ning Chun expressed his opinion first.

"In terms of taste, I think the No. [-] dish, that is, the colorful beef skewers is the best. It has bright colors, beautiful colors, and an attractive aroma. When you eat it, it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, yet chewy. It has a complete color and fragrance."

Hearing the judgment, Master Wei of Zhengyang Tower showed a complacent expression.

Ning Chun continued: "I think this dish should be eliminated first."

"Ah..." All the onlookers murmured in surprise, how could the No. [-] beef dish with the best color and flavor be eliminated first? Why?

Ning Chun explained: "What is the original purpose of our competition using beef as the material?"

Everyone stopped whispering and stared at him with wide eyes.

"Our country is based on agriculture, and the cultivated land mainly relies on cattle. Therefore, the imperial court has issued an order prohibiting the slaughter of cattle. Only the cattle that have passed the useful life can be slaughtered for human consumption. However, the quality of ten-year-old beef is a bit rough, and it tastes a lot worse. The taste is not very good. The requirement of this competition is to use [-]-year-old cattle as ingredients to make a beef dish to test the chef's cooking skills. If a new dish is developed, it can be promoted to the common people. But..."

Ning Chun paused for a moment, and said sternly: "The taste of the No. [-] dish is excellent, but the calf used is two or three years old. Although it may not be slaughtered by the chef, but using the calf as the material in this way is indirect. It has seriously damaged the imperial decree. If you do it with your heart, a ten-year-old cow can be delicious. There is no need to use a calf. In order to win, abandon the basic attitude towards food and do some opportunistic things. This is not a food. People's beliefs that should be adhered to.

Therefore, I propose that dish No. [-] be eliminated directly. "

The other referees nodded in agreement.The onlookers were also convinced, and Master Wei in Zhengyang Building was downcast.

The remaining ones who are eligible to win are dishes No. [-] and No. [-].Both dishes are beef slices, both of which are delicious, and the color and aroma are equally good, making it difficult to decide which is better.

Several referees picked up their chopsticks and closed their eyes to taste carefully. The beauty of the taste is really comparable.

"No. [-] beef is delicious, with a novel seasoning, and a spicy taste that I have never tasted before. It is so spicy, but not overbearing. It is rare. I have eaten all kinds of food, and I have never eaten such a novel taste. I don’t know. What kind of seasoning is this?" Ning Chun expressed his opinion on No. [-] beef.

Bao Qi prefers the No. [-] beef, and said: "I think the third dish of beef is better. It is hot, smooth and tender in the mouth, and it smells like beef."

Everyone laughed: "Of course the beef smells like beef. Does it have other flavors?"

Baoqi said: "Yes, beef should have a beef flavor, but now many chefs use a lot of ingredients to make their dishes stand out, completely losing the original flavor of the food. You can’t taste the aroma of eggplant at all, and a dish of shredded radish has to be boiled repeatedly in chicken soup until it loses the original radish flavor. The way of cooking is to make it tasteless and make it tasteful. The role of ingredients is to remove the peculiar smell of the main ingredient , to bring out the deliciousness of the main ingredients, rather than drowning out the original taste of the main ingredients.

Just like human beings, they are born simple and natural, but after entering the world, they are contaminated with material desires, submerged their innocence, and have completely lost their original true colors. This is inferior.The same goes for cooking. A lot of miscellaneous ingredients drown out the original taste of the main ingredients, and no matter how good the taste is, it is inferior. "

As soon as these words came out, most people nodded in agreement.

Finally, several referees discussed and announced the result: "The final winner is Beef No. [-]."

Everyone in the hall whispered, who made the winning beef?

The author has something to say: competition, competition, who will be the final winner?

I finally climbed to the tail of the monthly list, I am so tired, I will continue to make a fist during the daily update...

30

30. Picking the moon...

Finally, several referees discussed and announced the result: "The final winner is Beef No. [-]."

Everyone in the hall whispered, who made the winning beef?

However, the chef just kept silent, and he didn't know whether he was being modest or trying to tease people's appetite. Only Ye Chengfeng, as if realizing something, took a look at Jiale.

"Who made this No. [-] beef? Express the name." People shouted.

Finally, Jia Le stood up with a blushing face.

When everyone saw that the final winner was a young man they had never heard of, they were all surprised. It was really hard for such an unremarkable young man to defeat a well-informed foreign businessman and a first-class chef in the county. confidence.

Baoqi gave the winner a gold-plated spatula. Although it is not very valuable, it is meant to encourage. It was the first time for Jiale to show his face in front of people, and he took it excitedly. Hearing the praise around him, he was even more at a loss , I also forgot to post an acceptance speech or something.

With a smile on his face, Ye Chengfeng looked at the person in the center of everyone's attention from a distance, and was actually happier than himself for winning the award, and was sincerely proud of him.

The performances of the two losers were different. Master Wei blushed and hid aside, while Thomson put down his chopsticks and savored the three dishes carefully.Putting it into his mouth and savoring it carefully, his eyes shone with surprise, and he exclaimed: "Oh, this beef is very tender, without too much seasoning, just the original taste of beef, which makes people want to eat more and more. How do you do it? ? What tricks did you use to make the ten-year-old cow do this?"

"Don't dare to do it." Jiale replied modestly, "spread out the beef tenderloin, beat it repeatedly with a wooden stick for nearly an hour, break the thick and old fibers in it, make it smooth and tender, and cut it into thin slices against the grain. Then marinate with minced pepper, rice wine and ginger, put it into the oil pan and quickly stir-fry, pour in the gravy that has been sautéed with oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice wine, garlic, shallot and ginger."

"Well, it's really crooked Ruigu, I admit defeat." Thomson expressed his conviction boldly.

Jiale was also very happy to see him refreshing. He also tasted the beef he made. The beef slices were mixed with a lot of mashed potatoes and dried broad beans. what is it.

"I use curry," Thomson told him.

"Ga... what... Li?" Most people didn't understand what it was.

Thomson gave a generous introduction. Curry comes from India. It is mainly composed of various spices. The usage is to fry it with oil, add onion, ginger and garlic and boil it. There are many colors, usually yellow and red, and the taste is spicy and strong. Restricted, a variety of different spices come together to form an unexpected fragrance.

The spices in his beef dish mainly use spices such as lemongrass, fish sauce, turmeric powder, cinnamon, cloves and coriander seeds, which contain spiciness, which is different from the spiciness brought by pure chili.It not only attracts appetite, but also can appetizer, remove blood stasis and help digestion...

Thomson introduced a lot of curry's deliciousness and health benefits, and also took out various curry samples in the box. There are several colors and types of red, yellow, white, and green. People are interested and take them one after another. I picked up the bottle to study, and some even ordered the goods on the spot.

Ting Shuang said with a smile: "Lao Tang, you are very good at creating business opportunities."

Thomson also laughed: "You are also great. A fire made you think of buying garbage, and an earthquake made you famous and made a lot of money. That's Gao Claw."

"That's called a master, not a high claw, please don't use words indiscriminately, okay?" After finishing speaking, Ting Shuang patted Jia Le's shoulder heavily, and praised vigorously: "Good boy, it saves face. I made you my friend. What will happen in the future?" Please find me, please."

Jia Le smiled and agreed, and they chatted with each other while eating good food. They were very speculative. Hearing Thomson's story about overseas, Jia Le opened his eyes wide and made no secret of his envy. He kept asking questions curiously. He didn't care about Ye Chengfeng who was left hanging aside.

Seeing him ignoring him, Ye Chengfeng felt very depressed, but it was rare to see the light in his eyes, and he was reluctant to deprive him of his last happiness, so he endured silence and watched those few people chatting until the sun set.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the bustling streets,
