I rely on food to dominate the two worlds

After Tang Shaoyan and the three of them ate, they began to meditate and refine the spiritual meal that they absorbed through the spiritual meal just now. After about half an hour, someone came over and asked them to participate in the assessment.

The three of them followed the man to the assessment site of the second-grade spiritual chef. In the spacious room, there were two middle-aged men in gold-rimmed black robes waiting for them. They all had five chests. Stars obviously represent their status as fifth-grade spiritual chefs.One person seemed to have a natural smile on his kind and refined face, while the other was a serious person who did not smile at all, forming a stark contrast.

In the center of the room are dozens of exquisite and spacious stoves, each of which is specially made into a concave shape. There are two stoves in the middle, and cooking tables on both sides for placing utensils, which is in line with the modern kitchen layout. With a bit of imagination, Tang Shaoyan still likes it.There are a variety of fresh ingredients on both sides of the room, and the variety is so rich that you can't help but smack your tongue.

"Are you ready?" the elegant examiner, that is, Rong Han asked with a smile.

"Ready." The three replied in unison.

"That's good, but even if you're not ready, we can't wait for you." Rong Han said with a smile.

Three people: "..."

This examiner seems a bit unserious...?

"The assessment of the second-grade spiritual chef is a themed assessment. You only need to make the corresponding dishes according to the questions we gave, and you will be considered as a pass!" Another examiner, Pei Hongfang, glared at Rong Han beside him, and then said coldly, "Now announce the first question."

Being stared at by his senior brother, Rong Han had no choice but to touch his nose, and took out the topic he had prepared from his sleeve to unfold—"He has a head but no neck, eyes but no eyebrows, he can walk without feet, he can't fly with wings."

After Qiu Jing and Yu Chulin saw the topic, they both frowned and began to think hard.

On the contrary, Tang Shaoyan felt a little speechless. Isn't this the charade game they played boredly when they were in school?It only took him three seconds to guess the answer.

"Write your answers on paper now, and there will be servants to fetch the ingredients you need, but you have to remember, you only have a quarter of an hour." After Pei Hongfang finished speaking, someone stepped forward to write the pen and ink. The paper inkstone was placed in front of the three of them.

The three of them were shocked. Unexpectedly, the assessment only lasted a quarter of an hour, so while guessing the ingredients, they also had to come up with a cooking method that could be prepared quickly.

Tang Shaoyan soon had an idea. He calmly picked up the brush and wrote down all the ingredients he wanted on the paper.Although Tang Yongchang is a cook, he is a cook who specializes in making medicinal food. His ancestors were once imperial doctors, so he also attaches great importance to traditional culture. When Tang Shaoyan was young, he was sent to calligraphy classes every day, so his calligraphy Although it can't be said to be very good-looking, it is at least decent.

Rong Han nodded slightly after reading the three pieces of paper sent by the handymen, and the handymen each took a piece of paper to pick up the ingredients.

Soon the handymen put the baskets containing the ingredients in front of the examinees. When Qiu Jing saw the ingredients in her basket that were completely different from those of the other two, her face suddenly became ugly.

Qiu Jing's basket contained a chicken, while Tang Shaoyan's and Yu Chulin's baskets contained fish.

"The assessment begins! The time limit is [-] minutes!"

Qiu Jing had already lost the opportunity because she guessed the title wrong. Her face turned pale, obviously she was greatly shocked.However, her character was very tenacious, and she didn't let herself get depressed, but bit the tip of her tongue fiercely, forced herself to calm down, gritted her teeth and started to deal with the chicken.

No matter what, people must not let people see their Qiu family's jokes. She must not be sorry for the family's training for more than ten years, at least she must cook a dish that can prove her strength.

The strength of this little girl made Rong Han and Pei Hongfang take a high look at her.

Because Tang Shaoyan has recently raised a cat, it can be said that he cooks the most fish dishes. Because of the limited time, he plans to cook a fresh fish dish.

This dish is a well-known traditional dish in Huaguo. It is named after the fish looks like it is struggling and jumping in a net (a square fishing net with wooden sticks or bamboo poles as supports). ①

Its characteristic is that it has scales in the dish. After deep-fried, the scales and bones are crispy and the meat is quite tender. After it is out of the pan, pour hot sweet and sour sauce while it is hot. The aroma is overflowing while the steam is transpiring. The fried fish absorbs the sauce. The juice makes a "squeak" sound, as if the fish really came to life, bringing people multiple sensory enjoyments.

The most important thing is that because there is no need to remove the scales, you only need to remove the internal organs, and then directly change the knife into the oil to complete the production. The whole process only takes about ten minutes, and it must be completed within a quarter of an hour.

He picked up the fat fish, cut it directly from the belly, removed the gills and viscera, then inserted the knife into the prepayment, cut it along the spine from head to tail, and then used the tip of the knife to connect the fish bone with the fish head. The connection is also cut off, and the thick fish bones are slowly separated from the fish meat, and then the fish body is opened to both sides, and a cross-shaped knife is made on the fish meat.This is to prevent the fish body from shrinking after the whole fish is put into the pot, causing the fish body to deform or break.

His neat knife skills made Rong Han's eyes shine. This kid doesn't look very old, but he handles the ingredients quite neatly. But in just a short time, he has already processed a whole fish.

On the other hand, Pei Hongfang frowned slightly. He found out that Tang Shaoyan hadn't scaled the fish. How could he eat the fish that did this?

Tang Shaoyan didn't know what the two examiners were thinking, so he just focused on cooking.He smeared the inside of the fish belly with fine salt, and rubbed it together with cooking wine, green onion and ginger for 3 minutes.Then heat the oil in the pot to [-]% heat, and carefully put the fish in. As the oil temperature slowly reviews, the fish gradually takes shape, and the fish skin begins to turn golden.While frying the fish, he set up another frying pan and made a sweet and sour sauce to make sure that the sauce could be poured over the fish while it was still hot.

Tang Shaoyan continued to raise the oil temperature, and at the same time scooped the hot oil with a spoon to drench the fish. He concentrated on observing the condition of the fish. When the fish scales were raised, he immediately fished out the whole fish to avoid The fish scales were fried and scorched.

After putting the golden fish on the plate, Tang Shaoyan immediately raised his hand to show the examiner that he was done.

"So fast?" Both Rong Han and Pei Hongfang were taken aback.

Pei Hongfang said to Rong Han, "Go and have a look."

"Okay." Rong Han stepped up and walked towards Tang Shaoyan's direction. When he got closer, Rong Han found that his other oil pan was still steaming, and asked involuntarily, "Why hasn't this pan of yours been turned off?" ?”

Tang Shaoyan smiled slightly, extinguished the fire in front of Rong Han, and poured the sweet and sour sauce boiling in the oil pan on the same steaming fried fish.There was a "squeak" sound immediately from Yu's body, which made Rong Han's face show a look of surprise.

"What's your dish?"

"The name of this dish is live fish." Tang Shaoyan briefly described the allusion of this dish.

Rong Han's eyes lit up when he heard this. He regarded the allusion of this dish as the inheritance of the mortal world. Because mortals can't cultivate immortals, they pay more attention to appetite and the variety of dishes. Maybe Tang Shaoyan is in the mortal world. Only when the family grows up can they master so many novel dishes, and they are more bold in seasoning.

Although monks eat spiritual meals not to satisfy their own appetites, but they can also enjoy delicious food while helping their cultivation. Who would refuse such a good thing?Under the condition of being able to absorb the same aura, everyone will choose the more delicious dish, that is beyond doubt.

Moreover, the taste of sweet and sour was stimulated by the heat at this moment, and the rich aroma whetted the appetite. He believed that even if the spiritual energy content of the spiritual meal made by Tang Shaoyan was slightly inferior, countless monks would be willing to taste it.

"Then let me give it a try." Rong Han picked up the chopsticks and gently pinched the belly of the fish. He could clearly feel the elasticity of the fish through the chopsticks. Although the scales of this fish have not been removed, I don't know if it will be. What a strange taste, but he is still willing to try it.

The fish scales, fish skin and fish meat were eaten at the same time, and then his eyes widened instantly. The taste of the fish scales is very crisp, the fish skin is fragrant and tender, and the fish meat is delicious. Coupled with the sweet and sour sweet and sour sauce, multiple textures and flavors bloom on the tip of the tongue. It is impossible not to indulge in it.

Rong Han barely resisted the urge to praise loudly, took another piece of fish meat with chopsticks, savored and felt the taste and aura in it carefully, and then paid more and more attention to the boy in front of him.In such a short period of time, he can quickly come up with dishes that meet the requirements, and perfectly control the heat and seasoning, and even the content of spiritual energy has not been reduced by half. Isn't this young man's aptitude too monstrous? !

While thinking about it, Rong Han picked up vegetables unconsciously, picked up one chopstick and another, seeing that most of the whole fish on the plate was quickly eaten by him, Pei Hongfang finally couldn't help shouting, "Rong Han, have you finished tasting?"

Only then did Rong Han come to his senses, and when he saw the half-empty plate, his face suddenly became a little embarrassed. He quickly walked back to Pei Hongfang with the plate in his hand, and whispered to him, "Brother, come and taste Taste, this fish is really good."

Pei Hongfang really had no choice but to take a piece of fish meat with his chopsticks, and then understood why Rong Han acted like that just now. Even he couldn't keep calm.He didn't know how many years he hadn't tried such a rich-flavored dish. It was deep-fried and added with sauce. He didn't know how many impurities were added in it, but the content of aura was still very high. It can be seen that this young man was The spirit chef has a terrifying talent.

Although he is very concerned about this young man, the assessment still needs to be carried out, and everything will be discussed after the assessment is over.

"It's time!" Pei Hongfang said loudly.

Both Yu Chulin and Qiu Jing have completed the production of spiritual food. Yu Chulin made steamed fish, and Qiu Jing made oily chicken slices. Just passable.

With Tang Shaoyan's jade in front, the two of them seemed too ordinary.
