Chapter 176 The scene gradually became chaotic...

The whole process of making this dish of West Lake Vinegar Fish is not long.

But in the whole process from killing the fish to finally pouring the sauce and putting it on the plate, there is almost no time to stop or delay.

In other words!
Every step is interlocking and closely connected!

It can be said that making this West Lake vinegar fish is a process where every second counts.

If the whole production process takes a little longer, the fish will probably not taste very good.

At least when the freshness of the ingredients declines, there will be some deficiencies in their taste and texture.

Big discount!
The camera zoomed in slowly, aiming at the West Lake vinegar fish.

The picture on the large LED background screen became clearer, allowing the audience and chefs in the audience to see it more clearly.

Ma Qingxiong and other chefs stood at the side of the stage. After witnessing the whole process of making West Lake vinegar fish by Huang Tao, they felt a little complicated.

At the beginning, they learned that Huang Tao was "teaching art on the spot" when they were cooking the West Lake Vinegar Fish dish.

Honestly!
Deep down in their hearts, they are actually not very optimistic.

The dish of West Lake Vinegar Fish may seem simple, but it takes a lot of skill to make it delicious.

The first is thickening. There are many techniques for thickening fish, but the West Lake vinegar fish pays attention to the shape of the outer layer, which looks like a thin layer of translucent coating. When thickening, only sweet and sour soy sauce, ginger powder and starch are used. The fresh and sweet taste depends on the proportion. .This is a test of technology.

The second is that the fish body is complete when it is served, with upright pectoral fins and slightly protruding two fish eyes, just like a live fish. This depends on the knife skills when cutting the fish and the skill of blanching the fish afterwards.

It is difficult to grasp the thickening, knife skills, and squid skills.

In addition, Huang Tao is too young and lacks some persuasion.

It made them think that he chose this West Lake Vinegar Fish because he was pretending to be coercive.

It was only when they saw Huang Tao using the "seven and a half knife" technique when he was cutting fish that they realized that he really had two brushes.

Also realized that I was wrong!

Then after seeing his thickening and boiled fish skills, I realized that I was very wrong.

Huang Tao didn't pretend to be aggressive, he was really awesome...

The bull opens the door for the cow --- awesome!

They have been in the chef circle for many years and have met all kinds of chefs. Huang Tao is impeccable in both knife skills and fire control. What is even more rare is his meticulous pursuit of traditional cooking skills and his dedication.

The style that only a true master chef can have!

This scene shocked them greatly!

They are all like this, let alone the hundreds of spectators now!

Most of the audience sitting in the auditorium are diners at the delicious booth.

As a matter of course, all of them have tasted the delicacies cooked by Huang Tao.

Some people are residents near the commercial pedestrian street, and visited his booth several times before coming to his booth.

Some people come here just because of the reputation, and drive all the way from other villages and towns to taste it.

As a result, he became a loyal diner of the delicious restaurant.

They were delighted when they learned that Boss Huang of the delicious restaurant was invited to participate in the "live art teaching" in the afternoon.

But when they learned that Huang Tao's dish was West Lake Vinegar Fish, they were not optimistic about it, and even resisted it in their hearts.

The reason is the West Lake vinegar fish, which is very difficult to eat!
They once imagined the West Lake vinegar fish.

After a mouthful of vinegar fish, the lips and teeth seem to be lingering in the misty rain of the West Lake.Counting from the Northern Song Dynasty when West Lake Vinegar Fish was born, so many romances, chivalry, tenderness and daring have been blended into this classic famous dish.

But in reality, the West Lake Vinegar Fish is...

One bite, like a mouthful of paste.After two bites, it was as if the ghosts of those fishes in the West Lake kept churning in my esophagus.After three bites, if a fish dies because of this famous dish, well, it really is not worth dying for.

I thought this dish won the crown of the first Hangzhou dish in the selection of 1956 Hangzhou dishes in 36. In the state banquet, West Lake Vinegar Fish was once an important dish.

Food experts, leaders, and foreign guests will not insist that it is delicious, right?

And from small shops in the streets and alleys to big shops that are also famous on the list, they are all available.

Therefore, there are thousands of mistakes, and it should not be the fault of West Lake Vinegar Fish.

It must be the wrong way of tasting, which makes it unpalatable!

With this idea in mind!
Just eat a few times.

The most important thing is to jump out of your own taste and aesthetic preferences. After all, a famous dish with a long history must be tasted with a compassionate vision of God.

I'll go~
It's hard to suppress my "small family spirit" that is about to move, and taste it with a world view of history.

The result is still no surprise...

Unpalatable batch!
But the introduction of West Lake vinegar fish is not what they said!

According to the introduction, this is a river fresh dish.

The umami of grass carp is paired with the simple seasoning of sweet and sour sauce. Even without a drop of oil and chicken essence, monosodium glutamate and spices, you can still taste the simple and complex flavor.

It smells like crab.

The results of it?
First a pungent sourness, followed by a sticky sweetness.

Finally, there is an earthy smell that cannot be sealed by sweet and sour.

Meow, the crabs will feel extremely unlucky when they hear this!
that moment!
They finally agreed with a saying circulating on the Internet: In this world, I am afraid that there is no such thing as a delicious and authentic West Lake vinegar fish!

I even warned myself in my heart: I will not eat this dish even if I starve to death in the future!
It's just that such a firm idea gradually collapsed when he saw Huang Tao's West Lake vinegar fish and smelled the unique fragrance of West Lake vinegar fish.

They actually thought that the West Lake vinegar fish made by Boss Huang looked good and smelled delicious. The most important thing was that Wei Mingguo said that he made authentic dishes, and Huang Tao's previous dishes were indeed delicious.

Let them all have the idea of ​​wanting to eat!

They are not the only ones who have this idea!

Even Wei Mingguo, a culinary master like Wei Mingguo, expressed his desire to taste one or two.

Lao Qin and Lao Zhu on the side of the stage couldn't sit still anymore, they got up at the same time and walked towards the stage.

Want to get a head start!
Ma Qingxiong and the other chefs were originally embarrassed to go to the stage because of face, but now seeing Mr. Qin and Mr. Zhu also walking on the stage, they rushed forward to greet them.

The audience in the audience watched the food judges, as well as chefs from various hotels and restaurants wearing chef uniforms, walking in the direction of the stage in unison.

All of a sudden!

"What's the matter? What's going on with these food judges and the chefs of various hotels and restaurants?"

"I'll go...why are they all walking to the stage?"

Seeing these people use it on the stage one after another, everyone quickly noticed something was wrong.

I am even more sure that this plate of West Lake vinegar fish must taste very good.

Otherwise, these chefs and food judges wouldn't rush to the stage...

After they reacted, they all made voices of dissatisfaction!

"Damn, they want to occupy the rhythm of the position! The chefs and food judges of these hotels and restaurants don't talk about martial arts!"

"Nimma! Is this a human being?"

"What's wrong? Don't treat the audience as human beings? We don't want to taste the West Lake vinegar fish!"

"Hey! You chefs, you can't monopolize the market like this! You have to stay on the front line, so we can meet each other in the future!"

"I'll go~ The on-site art teaching is for us diners to see. The tasting naturally has to be done by us diners and audiences. It has nothing to do with you cooks. You all stop."

"Yo! It looks like you guys are out of money, so don't blame us for being rude!"

"Everyone, what are you waiting for, go!"

The little brother who was shouting, his eyes turned hard, and he thought silently that he rushed for his West Lake vinegar fish.

It's over with a roar!
The surrounding audience all got up and rushed towards the stage.

In an instant.

The scene gradually became chaotic...
