Dare to cook

Chapter 194

After five years of separation, there was no news.

I don't know if she is doing well with Ying Jiang.

It must be very good.

At least, with her family background, there is no need to do odd jobs while studying.

Because the contest topic won Yusu Soup, it inadvertently aroused Yao Yu's memory of his ex.

However, Yao Yu quickly got rid of this feeling of reminiscence.

He was not someone who would indulge in past memories and couldn't extricate himself.

For Yao Yu, all the things in the past have already become a thing of the past.

Now he has a brand new life.

There is also a woman who wants to protect again.

So, nothing in the past matters anymore.

What Yao Yu has to do now is to focus on the game and defeat the opponent!
The recipe of Yusu soup is not complicated.

There are three ingredients that are essential to get this dish right.

These three ingredients are: boneless fish, eggs, and sweet potato powder.

The fish used to make Yusu soup must be the kind with very few fish bones, otherwise even if the fish is fried to a crisp, it will still cause diners to get stuck in their throats.

More than half of the salmon that Yao Yu slaughtered before was still unused, and it happened to be ready for use at this time.

After the fish is deboned, cut into long cubes of medium thickness.

Then marinate with cooking wine, ginger juice, light soy sauce, a little water starch and pepper.

Next, there are some bottom soup ingredients to deal with.

The so-called base soup is the soup base.

The soup base of Yusu soup is basically made of vegetarian dishes.

The reason is the same as making fish porridge.

If other meat dishes are used in fish porridge or fish soup, the delicious taste of the fish may be covered up by the meat.

The soup base of Yusu soup is also the key to determine the quality of this dish.

There are many ingredients that Yao Yu prepares to make soup.

There are mainly salmon bones, garlic, carrots, fungus, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, shrimp skin and a small amount of shredded squid.

This pot of soup has to be boiled for at least four to ten minutes.

When boiling the soup, the fish bones must be cooked thoroughly with a high fire.

Add other ingredients after 10 minutes.

When making the soup, you can dip the marinated fish pieces in the egg liquid, and then wrap them in an appropriate amount of sweet potato powder.

Sweet potato flour is also sweet potato flour.

After the fish pieces are coated with sweet potato flour, they cannot be put into the pan for frying immediately.

It must be left for 3 to [-] minutes first, until the sweet potato powder absorbs the egg liquid and completely sticks to the fish pieces before frying in the pan.

Deep-fry the fish pieces until golden, remove and absorb excess oil with kitchen paper.

This step must not be skipped, otherwise when the fish pieces are boiled in the soup, the greasy taste of the whole dish will become heavier.

After frying the fish pieces, wait for the bottom soup to boil, then you can use starch to thicken the soup, then pour the fish pieces into the soup pot, and then sprinkle some salt, coriander, and pepper to taste, and the work is done.

The above is the general method of Yusu soup.

However, when Yao Yu cooked the soup, he also added an ingredient.

That ingredient is boiled, shelled quail eggs.

Fish soup with quail eggs is not common, nor is it rare.The reason why Yao Yu did this was purely subconscious.

After the quail eggs were put into the pot, he suddenly realized that this way of eating was his ex-girlfriend Wang Shuyuan's favorite.

Wang Shuyuan is a research madman.

Regardless of whether it is a valid or unusable certificate, as long as she is interested, she will take the test.

Because of this, she often stays up late to read books.

Although he went to college, he studied as hard as the third year of high school.

It is precisely because of that hard work and persistence that Wang Shuyuan was able to be admitted to Harvard Business School by virtue of her own strength.

During the period when Wang Shuyuan often challenged night battles, Yao Yu worried that her nutrition could not keep up, so he would add a few quail eggs to her soup.

Wang Shuyuan ate that kind of fish soup with quail eggs for more than three months, but she never got tired of it.

She once snuggled into Yao Yu's arms, pressed against his chest, and said that she would eat his cooking for the rest of her life.

Young people's vows and sweet words are often so naive.

When the relationship between the two was like glue, no one would have thought that one day they would part ways and never see each other again.

Memories, like light seeping through the cracks.

Before he knew it, Yao Yu was taken aback again.

Yao Yu shook his head lightly, pulled away from the meaningless emotion again, and laughed at himself, "I'm really out of my mind. Why bother to think about her anymore."

With that said, Yao Yu rang the bell next to the kitchen stove, and asked the waiter to bring the Yusu soup to the judging booth.

While Yao Yu was making Yusu Soup, Ling Zhaochi was also finished.

He also added half-cut marinated eggs to the Yusu soup. At first glance, it looks delicious and delicious, and it can also attract people's index fingers.

Yao Yu glanced at Ling Zhaochi's Yusu Soup with his system skills, and found that his Yusu Soup had a score of 9.97.

And my Yusu Soup is 9.99 with the blessing of cooking skills.

"Hey, the level of this guy is really good." Yao Yu thought to himself.

All that remains is to wait for the judges' verdict.

Since it was a one-course duel, and Yusu Soup was a dish that both of them were good at, the gap between Ling Zhaochi and Yao Yu's culinary skills was greatly narrowed at this moment.

Even for the judges with high professional standards, it is difficult to make a choice after tasting the dishes of the two.

Finally, after a 10-minute discussion.

The judges reached a consensus and announced the results.

In this competition, the judges gave Ling Zhaochi a score of 9.976 and Yao Yu a score of 9.983.

The scores of the two were very rarely accurate to the third digit of the decimal point by the five judges.

This scoring situation is also extremely rare.

When the score was announced, the audience was in an uproar.

Hundreds of Yushibang chefs were also surprised when they saw this score.

Shen Qiuming yelled strangely: "Ling Zhaochi can do it! He was able to kill Yao Manzi just a little bit!"

"It's not just a little bit worse. If you switch to other judges with a slightly lower professional level, you might just judge Ling Zhaochi as the winner." Ji Xun said seriously.

"Then, where is the difference of 0.007 points between Ling Zhaochi and Yao Yu? The judges can't judge Yao Yu because he is more famous, right?" Qi Shanru asked puzzled.

At this time, Shu Wangjing in the jury seat also got up with the microphone and said:
"It was a very exciting competition. The dishes made by the two contestants are very good, so it is very difficult for us to choose."

"After repeated discussions with the other four judges, I finally decided to give such a score."

"First of all, what I want to say is Ling Zhaochi's works."

"The fish soup he made is delicious and cool. The fried fish pieces are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The taste is full and the aftertaste is long. There are almost no problems."

"The Yusu Soup made by Yao Yu is also the same, people can't fault it."

"However, he used an extra condiment when seasoning the fish soup. This condiment should be black vinegar."

"The Yusu Soup with black vinegar, the soup base is not as delicious as Ling Zhaochi's. But it makes the flavor of the base soup more layered and stimulates the taste buds of diners."

"Therefore, based on this, we think that the Yusu soup cooked by Yao Yu is even better!"
