Dare to cook

Chapter 225 The Magical Brain Circuit
After cooking the boiled prawns and stir-fried seasonal vegetables, Yao Yu only had to cook the last scallop and corn soup.

At this point in the game, there are only 20 minutes left.

The high intensity for five consecutive hours made Chen Li feel very tired.

This kind of exhaustion comes from two aspects, one is physical exertion, and the other is Shen Gongpei's pressure.

Even though in this game, Chen Li was just the assistant chef.

But even simple matching tasks are equally important.

The higher the level of competition, the more delicate the chef's requirements for knife skills and heat are.

The so-called master's tricks, if there is a slight difference, it is possible to lose the whole game.

Chen Li is not yet a top-level chef, and he has watched many competitions at the chef level of the Kirin List.

So it is very clear that there is still a big gap in knife skills between myself and the chefs on the Qilin List.

He has been a little worried, worried that he is not supporting enough, so that Yao Yu's dish score is dragged down.

Therefore, in order to ensure that your matching work does not lose the chain.

Not only did Chen Li strictly demand himself, and put in a lot of energy to focus on assisting, but he also prepared two more copies of each basic ingredient, and then chose the best one for Yao Yu to cook.

With the help of the cook, Yao Yu's workload became much easier.

In addition to cooking dishes, Yao Yu even had spare time to sneak a peek at Shen Gongpei from time to time, and constantly used [Clear Observation] and [Insight Like a Candle] to analyze and predict Shen Gongpei's cooking techniques and dish scores.

It is also by relying on the analysis and prediction of the system's skills that Yao Yu can learn from each other's strengths and make up for his weaknesses when cooking, constantly stealing from Shen Gongpei's superiority, and improving his cooking techniques in time.

At this point, the game is drawing to a close.

Yao Yu glanced at Chen Li whose chef's hat and uniform were soaked in sweat, smiled and said, "You should rest for a while, and I will finish the rest of the work."

"Senior brother, I..." Chen Li opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"It's okay. Back then when Shen Qiuming challenged the Chef of the Qilin List in private, he acted more nervous than you. It's just a competition. Don't take it too seriously, and you won't have a psychological burden."

Yao Yu patted Chen Li on the shoulder, and smiled confidently:
"Besides, we can't lose!"

"Don't even think about it. If I'm not sure, will I challenge Shen Gongpei in public to embarrass my second uncle?"

After finishing speaking, Yao Yu didn't want to explain any more, and turned around to cook scallop and corn soup.

After several hours of soaking, the scallops have been fully soaked and softened, and the scallops are crystal clear, plump and round.

The soaked scallops should be rubbed into filaments by hand.

Scallops are actually dried scallops.

Dried scallops are one of the eight treasures of the sea, which can greatly enhance the umami taste of dishes after being added to the dish.

However, dried seafood such as scallops and clams have a characteristic that there will be more sediment inside.

So be careful when washing your hair.

After the scallops are shredded, they can be mixed with minced meat.

There is no need to add too much meat to make scallop and corn soup. Generally, one catty of scallops can be mixed with about [-] grams of pork or chicken.

The minced meat that Yao Yu chooses is minced chicken.

If you use chicken, the taste will be more delicious.

After mixing the chicken and scallops, Yao Yu had to deal with the corn.

As I said before, people in eastern Guangdong are used to calling corn kernels corn.

After the peeled corn kernels are blanched with hot water, they can be crushed in a food processor.

However, Yao Yu did not choose to use a cooking machine, but chopped it by hand.

If you use a cooking machine, the corn kernels will be directly beaten into a paste to a large extent.And to make this dish, it would be better to keep some grains of corn properly.

The fish sausage knife fell quickly in Yao Yu's hands, and nearly half a catty of corn kernels were chopped into mince.

In fact, after many kind reminders from another dimension, Yao Yu rarely uses fish sausage knives in the cooking process.

After all, the sausage knife set by the system is too sharp, cutting bones like mud.

If you accidentally cut your hand or the core of the earth, it would be too embarrassing and it would not end well O(╯□╰)o.

Therefore, except for very important games, Yao decided to avoid chopping his hands and Yu decided that he would try not to let Yuchangdao play in the future if he could.

cough cough...

Salt Turtles...Closer

Put the minced corn paste into a pot and bring to a boil with water. Then pour in the minced chicken and scallops. After breaking up, turn to low heat and add various seasonings.

After the ingredients in the pot are basically cooked, you have to pour in a pre-beaten egg liquid, and then put the pot on the plate.

Before pouring the egg liquid, some fastidious chefs will add a little sugar to the egg liquid.

But Yao Yu and Shen Gongpei each have their own coups.

In order to make the scallop and corn soup taste sweet, Shen Gongpei added a little acacia honey while adding egg liquid.

Yao Yu's method is to directly throw a few candied dates with high sugar content into the pot and cook together.

When the pot is ready, just take out the candied dates and remove them.

……

47:[-] p.m.

Yao Yu and Shen Gongpei completed the dishes successively.

Within five hours, contestants from both sides prepared a table of nine large gui banquets with all kinds of flavors and flavors.

Seeing that both contestants had finished setting the dishes, the referee let the passer enter the arena and brought the dishes to the judges' seats.

At this time, the host of the event also took the microphone and led the cameraman to the players.

While the waiter was still serving the dishes, Ling Xiaoxue came to Yao Yu's side for an interview and said:

"Dear audience, as you can see, both sides of the competition have completed all the competition questions. Next, let us first interview the challenger of this competition to see if he has any new thoughts at this time."

"Hi Yao Yu, did you feel pressure during this competition? What do you think is the biggest obstacle you encountered during the cooking process?"

"Obstacle? Doesn't it feel like a big obstacle?" Yao Yu thought for a while, and said nonsense seriously:
"I am very familiar with the dishes of Jiu Dagui, so each dish was prepared smoothly. Thanks to the organizer for giving the challengers preferential treatment, allowing me to choose familiar competition questions for competition."

"Of course, it would be even better if the host can prepare some Haagen-Dazs in the refrigerator next time."

"After all, it's very hard to stay on the stove and play for five hours straight."

"I think that if the organizer can prepare some desserts for the players to replenish their energy, then the performance of the players in the competition will definitely be even better in the future."

As soon as this remark came out, the audience on the scene and in the live broadcast room burst into laughter.

Even if Ling Xiaoxue's professionalism is good enough, she couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth at this moment.

During the game interview, complained that the organizer did not prepare ice cream for the players to cool off?

What kind of magical brain circuit is this?

Yao Yu teases him like this, isn't he afraid of provoking criticism from the Kitchen Association?

and also……

Why does ice cream specify Haagen-Dazs? Isn’t it sweeter if it’s too cute!
Ling Xiaoxue couldn't help but complain.

She laughed dryly, changed the subject and said:
"It seems that the mentality of Yao Yu's players is really good. So, how confident are you in winning this game at this moment?"

Hearing this, Yao Yu looked at the three judges who were preparing to comment on the dishes, and then glanced at Shen Gongpei who was opposite, and said calmly:

"What I should do has already been done. For the rest, I just wait for the senior judges to announce the answers. No matter what the result is, I can accept it calmly."
