[Orc] Food Age

The exam venue is built on a large wooden loft, and there are a lot of participants in each session, Mu Bai only went to one of the venues.But there were about two hundred people in this venue.

Mu Bai found that, probably because of the exemption from the test, almost everyone looked at him openly and secretly.In this way, Mu Bai's nervousness was relieved a lot.It reminded him of his previous life.At that time, although he was young, he had a high status in the culinary world, and every time he participated in any conference in the culinary world, he also attracted everyone's attention.

This world is used to being cautious and cautious, and once in a while it attracts so much attention, it makes Mu Bai feel a little familiar.

There are a total of three rounds in the intermediate exam, the first round is a unified proposition.This time the proposition is "Mifeimi", as the name suggests, is to use rice to make dishes that are not rice.To put it bluntly, you can't make rice, fried rice, porridge and the like.

This proposition, Mu Bai thinks it is quite simple.There are many foods made from rice, among which pastries are the most common.

Apparently everyone thought so.They have begun to choose the rice they need to grind noodles and make various snacks.This dessert is not just sweet, and rice is only the main ingredient, and there are no restrictions on auxiliary ingredients, so the judges are still looking forward to this cooking.

Perhaps because the ingredients are too simple, in order to show their superb skills, the chefs obviously prepared high-grade ingredients as auxiliary ingredients.But since the proposition is "meters are not rice", then meters are the main thing.If the ingredients are too brilliant and suppress the "rice", then the cooking will obviously be deducted points.

Mu Bai only thought for a while, and he roughly grasped the scoring points of this competition.Although the cooking techniques in the two worlds are different, the format of the exam is similar.Mu Bai has also been a judge of many international cooking competitions, and his grasp of the test sites is still very accurate.

So many people make pastries, no matter how many kinds of pastries there are, they will be aesthetically fatigued.The first plus point Mu Bai gave to his choice was not to make pastries.The food Mu Bai chooses is popular all over the country, and every place has its own characteristic Han snack——rice noodles.Rice noodles Rice noodles refer to strip-shaped and silk-shaped rice products made of rice as raw material through processes such as soaking, cooking, and layering.The rice noodles are elastic and will not become mushy when boiled in water, and not easy to break when fried. It is one of Mubai’s favorites for breakfast with various vegetables or soup ingredients for soup or fried. It is smooth and tasty.

Taking rice noodles as the food for the first test, not only can you add various seasonings to show Mu Bai's cooking skills, but also rice noodles will always be the main food, and will not overwhelm the guests.Considering that the judges like different tastes, Mubai chose to make small bowls of rice noodles with various flavors, and the judges still tasted them.

The most common way to eat rice noodles is soup noodles, and the soup is the most important.Mubai chose big bone soup, fish soup, various poultry soups, etc. as the base material, with various rich side dishes.The rice noodles hadn't been put into the pot yet, and the smell of the soup was already wafting around, making the judges swallow.

Although the dim sum is delicious, but in terms of aroma, it is still not as good as the rich soup.

Rice noodles are actually a very easy food to make, and the details are just soup and ingredients.It takes a certain amount of time to make rice noodles even with today's very advanced machines. During that time, Mubai just had to prepare the soup and ingredients.After the rice noodles are made, they can be boiled in a pot.The time for Mu Bai to complete the finished product is neither too early nor too late among all the contestants.

In order to be fair, the judges only tasted a few sips of each finished product, and every time they finished eating a contestant's dish, they would take pills for digestion and to clear the mouth.

Not every contestant's food has the opportunity to be presented to the judges.Many chefs are not good at cooking this kind of food, and they may be biased when choosing their products, such as rice being purely reduced to an ingredient.So this star test is not just a test of strength, luck is also a part of it.

There were only about a hundred pieces of works presented to the judges, and nearly half of them were eliminated simply because they were relevant to the topic, which surprised Mu Bai very much.But after thinking about it, I felt that it was justifiable.The ingredients in this world are too rich and excellent, and many chefs are used to presenting the original taste of the ingredients directly, without bothering to think about the further processing of the ingredients.So as rice, it is probably food such as rice, fried rice, and rice porridge. The big deal is that it is served with various ingredients.It can be said that the world is full of miraculous and excellent ingredients, and a group of chefs have been disabled.

While thinking, Mu Bai picked up a small bowl of rice noodles reserved for himself and slurped the soup.After cooking so much food, he was also hungry.Mu Bai prefers spicy food, so he kept the famous Mianyang rice noodles for himself.Mianyang rice noodles have a history of nearly 2000 years, and its taste has the traditional spicy and spicy flavors of Sichuan snacks.Mu Bai especially likes numbness, so he added rattan pepper oil and green peppercorns to the condiments, just smelling it makes people's scalp numb.

Yi Xuan was sitting in the auditorium, watching with longing eyes that Mubai was drinking soup and sucking on rice noodles, almost drooling.Originally, with his status, he should be one of the judges of the star rating competition, but he was worried about Mu Bai, so he came here to the audience.But when the audience had nothing to eat, and seeing Mu Bai come up with a new dish, Yi Xuan's soul was about to be seduced by the aroma and go out of his body.

Obviously, Mu Bai's actions also attracted the attention of the people around him.The chefs were very nervous at first, but seeing Mu Bai gorging on the rice noodles, their stomachs started to growl. Finally, everyone silently saved a copy of their own creations to eat for themselves. Other people's cooking.After all, I have eaten my own dishes many times.Although those present are opponents, they are also good colleagues in the industry. The food they make should be delicious, right?

"Want to change?" Mu Bai raised his head and met a pair of longing eyes.

The little fat man on the opposite side nodded vigorously.

"Do you eat spicy or not? Are there any taboos? What kind of soup do you like?" Mu Bai wiped his mouth, he was also greedy for other chefs' food.

"It's rare, not spicy." The little fat man immediately offered a dessert made by himself.A small, translucent colored snack with a rich floral fragrance.

"Here!" I didn't expect the fat man to be a vegetarian.Mu Bai cursed silently, took the snack, and happily took a piece into his mouth.Woohoo, not only does it smell like a strong floral fragrance, but when you eat it, the fragrance seems to bloom in your taste buds.

"..." The judges silently watched the two people who had eaten themselves during the exam, feeling inexplicably happy.

The other chefs seemed to feel ashamed of these two, but they were also full of longing for food in their hearts.For a moment, the atmosphere of the people around was a little weird.

But fortunately, the judges soon tasted all the pastries and scored them.Mu Bai naturally topped the list.When the things were about to be removed, Mu Bai whispered in the ear of the little fat man who was also shortlisted in the first exam: "All these things have been removed? What a waste. Why don't you let everyone eat them together? You can also communicate skill."

"I think too, I'm so hungry." The little fat man also whispered in Mubai's ear.

Obviously, the two brats didn't realize that the people present—especially the judges were very strong.So what the two of them thought was very quiet, naturally passed into the ears of the judges.

Coincidentally, the leader of the judging panel this time is also a casual person. He directly left all the food with a wave of his hand, preventing the chefs from packing it away as usual, and then let everyone taste it together.Of course, the audience also plays a part.

The first one to run down was naturally Yi Xuan.When Mubai saw Yi Xuan looking at him with a standard salivating expression, he silently cooked a big pot of rice noodles for him, so Yi Xuan directly took the pot and ate it.

"Ah, isn't this Ah Xuan?" The head of the judges greeted with a smile.

While pouring rice noodles into his mouth, Yi Xuan greeted the leader of the judges with his eyes.

"..." This person really hasn't changed at all.The leader of the jury was silent.

"That, hello." Mu Bai looked at the interaction between the two embarrassingly, "Well, did you hear what I said just now?"

When the judges announced the news of this similar party, Mu Bai knew that what he said must have been heard.People in this world are so powerful, maybe my whispering is not a secret at all.

"I think what you said is right, it's quite interesting." The leader of the judges group smiled, "What's the name of your dish? It's the first time I've tried it."

"Rice noodles." Mu Bai answered honestly.

"...The name is a little too simple." The head of the judging panel was surprised.

"Simplicity is not good... This is rice noodles." Mu Bai was surprised.What's wrong with rice noodles?I don't understand the psychology of those who have to give the dish a so-called elegant name that is completely incomprehensible.It's like stewed pig's trotters with shredded kelp named after my hands through your black hair, and Peerless Shuangjiao is fried with green peppers and red peppers. Isn't that cheating?

"I didn't expect that someone who can make such an elegant pastry as chocolate truffles has such a simple side." The leader of the judging panel smiled.

"Does truffle chocolate have anything to do with elegance...it's just delicious chocolate." Mu Bai felt that this man's words were really strange.

"Well, it's just delicious chocolate." The head of the judges rubbed his nose.When others praised chocolate truffles as a luxurious and elegant pastry, the creator himself said that it was just delicious chocolate and had nothing to do with elegance.I don't know why, but I suddenly want to laugh.

"It's delicious." Yi Xuan finally spoke.He burped, touched his stomach, and reached out to pick up Mu Bai, "There are still a few days before the second competition, let's go shopping!"

After speaking, Yi Xuan carried Mu Bai and jumped out of the window.

Others =_=... Is this the rhythm of grabbing... No! ! ! ! !They are making a psychological defense for themselves, and they are going to send a representative to ask the chef to make more delicious rice noodles!A small bite for one person is not enough!How did you carry people away!asshole!Come back soon!
