Dare to cook

Chapter 65 The breath of conspiracy (please support, please collect!)

Nearly twelve o'clock, Yao Yu and others took the bus to the competition venue.

Ten thousand sanitation workers are only a small part of the total number of sanitation workers in Shanghai.

But even so, it is impossible to gather all 1 people in one place.

Not to mention whether it is hard to find a place that can accommodate 1 people at the same time.

Just bringing so many people together is a waste of time.

Therefore, after an agreement between the event organizer and the Sanitation Bureau, they decided to divide the competition venue into ten different areas so that the invited sanitation workers could gather nearby.

Ten competitions are divided into arenas, and each arena can be divided into six cooking groups.

In other words, as long as Yao Yu and the others get the top two points in the group, they will be able to advance smoothly.

The venue assigned by Yao Yu and the others is relatively far away, in a small square near the Yangpu Environmental Sanitation Bureau.

When Yao Yu and the others came to the competition site, a continuous canopy had already been set up here, completely covering the square of more than 2000 square meters.

Here will be the place where thousands of sanitation workers eat in the evening.

Yao Yu and the others were assigned to the No. [-] temporary stove.

Connected with the stove, there are piles of ingredients.

Pork, mutton, fish and shrimp, fruits and vegetables, eggs, chicken and duck, more than a dozen common ingredients are arranged in categories, which looks very spectacular.

Several people circled around the ingredients, and Yao Yu soon came up with a menu plan:
"Braised duck, twice-cooked pork, slippery fish fillet, pan-fried pork belly potato slices, braised shrimp in tomato oil, broccoli in sweet sauce, boiled okra, fried egg with celery, radish and mutton soup, and fish head soup with vermicelli."

"Ten dishes, three big meat dishes, two small meat dishes, three vegetarian dishes, and two soups. Do you have any opinions on the combination of dishes like this?"

The so-called big meat is a meat-based dish.The so-called small meat is a dish with half and half meat and vegetables.

As soon as Yao Yu announced the menu, Xie Zhixuan said:
"I think the celery omelette could be replaced with braised eggplant."

Yao Yu shook his head and said:
"Not good. There are already braised shrimp, twice-cooked pork, and braised duck. Adding braised eggplant will be too greasy."

"Moreover, dishes like eggplant must be made with heavy oil to be delicious. So this ingredient is directly passed."

Xie Zhixuan was not angry when his opinion was refuted, and said again:

"What about the cucumbers? How about substituting the scrambled eggs with celery for sweet and sour cucumber sticks or cucumbers with balsamic vinegar?"

Yao Yu thought for a while and said:

"You need freshly fried peanuts to make old vinegar cucumbers, but there are no peanuts here. You can make sweet and sour cucumber sticks if you want."

Xie Zhixuan nodded upon hearing this.

At this time, Mao Yuan said:

"I have a doubt, why not make mapo tofu?"

"The mapo tofu you make is even loved by the chefs of Qilinbang. If it is added to the menu, we will definitely get high marks."

Yao Yu smiled and explained:
"Ma Po tofu must be eaten while it's hot. But, look at our current cooking environment. It's outdoors, and the air leaks from all sides."

"Although the weather is nice and not cold today, it is still not good to make mapo tofu. Once it is out of the pot, it will cool down quickly. But if it is not out of the pot, it will be simmered on a plate after it is cooked, and the taste will be spoiled."

"Besides, if Mapo Tofu wants to be delicious, it takes a lot of time to refine the red oil. We have too many dishes to cook today, and we don't have enough time."

After hearing this, Mao Yuan suddenly realized.

Except for Xie Zhixuan, no one had any objection to Yao Yu's menu.

After the menu was set, Yao Yu began to assign tasks.

Mao Yuan and Xu Lin are still the same as last time, responsible for the cleaning, cutting and rough processing of the ingredients.

Chu Xinmei silently claimed three big dishes of braised duck, slippery fish fillet, and braised shrimp in tomato oil.

Yao Yu is responsible for the sweet sauce preparation of twice-cooked pork, pan-fried pork belly potato slices, radish and mutton soup, and broccoli in sweet sauce.

The boiled okra and sweet and sour cucumber are served by Xie Zhixuan.

As for the last noodle fish head soup, it depends on whoever is free.

After assigning tasks, everyone is busy.

Mao Xuan went to kill the fish first, Xu Lin started to chop duck meat, Xie Zhixuan went to pick cucumbers and okra, Chu Xinmei started to quickly peel the shrimp.

That hand speed was not much slower than Yao Yu's.

Twice-cooked pork and pan-fried pork belly potato chips both need pork belly.

Yao Yu took nearly a hundred catties of pork belly and threw it on the chopping board in one go.

He is about to slice the pork into slices.

However, when I scanned the various seasonings provided by the organizer with [Clearness], I found something was wrong.

"Gutter oil? Or old waste oil? Why is there such a thing in the cooking oil provided by the organizer!"

Yao Yu was stunned for a moment.

In his field of vision, among several buckets of cooking oil placed on the temporary stove, two buckets were marked red by the system skills.

According to the feedback from 【Ming Cha Qiu Hao】, 36% and 47% of waste oil were mixed in the two barrels of cooking oil of big brands.

This... This was beyond Yao Yu's expectation.

You know, the famous competition is the most valuable large-scale chef competition in China.

The sponsors of previous famous competitions are very proud.

For each contest, the organizers have sufficient funds, and the procurement personnel are also experienced. The procurement procedures are extremely strict, and it is almost impossible to buy low-quality ingredients and seasonings for the contestants.

But now, two barrels of unqualified cooking oil appeared on his competition stove.

Will this be an accident?
Yao Yu was suspicious and carefully scanned the other ingredients with his system skills.

It turned out that the rice allocated to them was actually mixed with different proportions of moldy rice.

Moreover, in the salt jar on the stove, [Clearly Check] detected nearly [-]% of the industrial salt!

what on earth is it!

The emergence of gutter oil may just be an accident.

But the rice was mixed with moldy rice, and the table salt was mixed with industrial salt, so the nature of this matter is much more serious.

Yao Yu's eyes turned cold, and he immediately smelled a conspiracy!

He immediately said to several people in the same group:

"Rice, salt, and cooking oil may have been tampered with maliciously! Don't touch these things! I will report the situation to the competition committee!"

After finishing speaking, Yao Yu ignored the astonished Mao Yuan and the others, and strode towards the race monitors.

After hearing about Yao Yu's statement, the race inspectors did not dare to be negligent, and immediately called several staff members to disassemble all the rice that had been provided to Yao Yu's team.

Moldy rice is dark and moldy, or the surface will be stained with green hairs.

Mixed with fresh rice, it is also easy to distinguish.Even people with normal IQs can tell the difference between moldy rice and good rice.

In contrast, the distinction between waste oil and industrial salt cannot be distinguished by naked eyes alone.

If Yao Yu didn't have a system around him, it would be difficult for him to notice that the salt and oil had been tampered with.

The race monitors were dubious about Yao Yu's statement.

However, when he saw a large amount of moldy rice being dug out of the rice bag, his face immediately became gloomy!
