Rebirth as a Cooking God

With a click, the plate fell on the dining table.

The camera panned to the dinner plate, where a well-fried carp lay on a sweet and sour sauce.

The whole main building was silent.

People were shocked by Xia Yu's simple and neat interpretation of cooking.

this……

Isn’t it too casual?

From the perspective of an ordinary chef, this 'Sweet and Sour Carp' dish is cooked at a good temperature, and the sweet and sour sauce also exudes enough sweet and sour flavor. It is roughly color-rich and fragrant, so it should be called a delicious dish.

But based on Xia Yu's Dragon Chef foundation, this cooking work for Qilinzi's quiz would be too crude.

The face of the leader Zhu Ji darkened slightly, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with Xia Yu's perfunctory behavior!

Even Kong Chun and Wei An, who had other thoughts aroused by Wu Tong's words, couldn't help but look at each other in surprise. They couldn't understand why the young devil king who always pursued the so-called perfection would use such a shabby weapon in such a ceremony. A faceless work that destroys the devil's signature.

Kong Chun and Wei An looked at the dishes on the plate several times.

……finished?

The big guys could only look at each other.

It's almost done. Xia Yu smiled slightly.

“Very ordinary, homely sweet and sour carp.”

Wu Tong moved his eyes away from the plate, looked up at Xia Yu, and said expressionlessly: Is this the homework you handed in to name 'Qilin Zi'...? To be honest, I don't know how to evaluate it. If you look at it from your Considering your cooking skills and personal reputation, I will give you 0 points without hesitation!

There is no need to taste it in person, Chef Long present can see the emptiness of the dishes.

From Long Chu's point of view, this emptiness is the lack of food spirit!

High-end dishes with food spirit have their own temperament, and this temperament comes from the inside out, just like Huang He's Guihe Yannian Soup, when the pot is lifted, a variety of strange scenes appear. But Xia Yu's current dish of sweet and sour carp was too quiet, with no change at all. The taste that floated into everyone's noses was also bland and could not arouse any food thoughts.

From this point of view, there seems to be nothing wrong with the zero score given by Wu Tong.

Are you sure that's all?

Zhu Ji spoke at a slow and unhurried pace: We old men can tolerate your improvised works on the spot, but they are not as good as the classic 'The Flesh from the Heart of the Earth' that defeated Huang He that day, but if it is so difficult to use chopsticks If you don’t even want to touch the level of ordinary dishes, that would be very disappointing. I might vote no on naming your Kirinzi!

Listening to the serious tone of the leader, the atmosphere inside the White Jade Tower suddenly changed.

Many people couldn't help but whisper and talk in low voices.

Hey, according to the rumors, isn't it just a formality for the Summer Demon King to become the 'Kilin Son'? It should have been decided long ago!

Who knows, these old guys are all bad, and they might change their minds on the spot.

Zhu Longtou is not a good person. I agree with this. After all, he fought and killed all the way to get to this high position. But this Xia Demon King has a blood relationship with him at least, but how can he look like he wants to kill his relatives out of justice?

The rustling sounds echoed everywhere from the second floor to the top floor. People couldn't help but cast curious glances at the young man who was still calm despite being questioned.

How can he solve this dilemma?

The master of ceremonies, who had always had no sense of presence, said weakly at this time: Well, Chef Xia, there is a stove on the stove and you didn't turn off the fire. There is water in the small pot, let it boil...

Huh!

The building fell silent for a moment.

Stove, small pot, water boiled? Only then did everyone realize to their surprise that there was indeed a stove on the stove with the fire turned off, and the small pot placed on it contained nothing more than ordinary water.

Steam filled the air.

Is the water boiling? Xia Yu's smile seemed full of mystery to Zhu Ji, Wu Tong and others.

Yes.

the master of ceremonies answered.

The five bosses present in the auditorium frowned one after another as they watched Xia Yu turn around and return to the kitchen table.

The camera that followed suddenly stopped on a bottle of wine on the kitchen counter.

This is...yellow wine? Zhu Ji looked surprised, Shaoxing old wine?

This jar of wine was placed in a relatively hidden position. Xia Yu placed a small jar on the table and placed a transparent glass. Then Shi Shiran untied the rope of the vintage wine jar and opened the seal and cork.

Coincidentally, a line of words on the front of the small wine jar was reflected in the camera and everyone's field of vision.

Aged.

Number one scholar red.

It turned out to be a jar of 'Zhuangyuan Red', a very ancient yellow wine.

You must know that rice wine is one of the three ancient wines in the world along with beer and wine. During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties 3,000 years ago, the name Jimo Old Wine was spread all over the world.

Today's rice wine field is led by Shaoxing wine, such as 'Nv'erhong', 'Zhuangyuanhong' and 'Huadiao wine' are all old Shaoxing wines.

But the combination of carp and rice wine is a strange and surprising combination.

National rare? Kong Chun was shocked when he saw the brand mark on the front of the wine jar, This wine...

ah!

A scream came from somewhere on the third floor, and the off-site cameras immediately panned over. A middle-aged man wearing a chef's uniform, who was among the special chef team of Baiyulou, couldn't help but say: This is the Zhuangyuanhong I brewed. Moreover, this Zhuangyuan Red breaks the tradition and uses high-tech technology and separation equipment. It does not add a drop of water or alcohol. It belongs to a new type of rice wine in the new era. The alcohol content is directly comparable to that of white wine, with a maximum of 60 degrees!

Wu Tong frowned and waved his hand: Then why not just use white wine instead of rice wine?

Because... The middle-aged man opened his mouth to answer, but Xia Yu chuckled, Because this rice wine is brewed with more than a dozen nourishing Chinese medicinal materials such as longan, wolfberry, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. It's not just the alcohol content, it's also In terms of nutrition and health care, it has completely surpassed rice wine in the traditional sense.”

The middle-aged winemaker was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red, feeling excited that he had found a close friend and was recognized by others.

Xia Yu acted as he spoke.

The whole jar of 'yellow wine' was transferred into a transparent glass.

Then, he put the entire glass into a small pot of boiling water, heated it for about 15 seconds, and then turned off the stove valve with a click.

Returned with a large glass of hot wine on a tray.

Click, put the tray down, Xia Yu took a step back, looked at the confused expressions of the five big guys in front of him, and explained calmly: Please pour this glass of wine on the carp.

How you water it, how much you water it, and how long you water it, it's up to you.

The five people had deep doubts.

Is this 'Fire Dragon Fish'? Zhu Ji revealed the real name of Xia Yu's recipe.

Fire Dragon Fish? You can say that. The recipe can't be fabricated out of thin air. My method and process are basically derived from the Fire Dragon Fish dish. Xia Yu said with a genuine smile, I didn't expect that Longtou also knew the Fire Dragon Fish dish. , compared with other traditional famous dishes, most chefs probably have no experience in cooking it.

Fire Dragon Fish! Yan Qi immediately looked at Xia Qing on the second floor.

At this time, Xia Qing looked at his grandson in shock.

In fact, this dish originated from his manuscript, and it was also Xia Qing's very proud specialty when he was young.

Do you pour rice wine on the carp?

Wu Tong looked at the glass wine glass on the tray with sharp eyes.

'Yellow wine' is a clear yellow-red color, and when filled into a full cup, the whole thing is like amber, dazzling in brilliance.

Putting his hand tentatively on the wine glass, Wu Tong raised his eyebrows. It could be said that the wine was very hot, at least over fifty degrees.

Hey.

A glass of wine was poured all over the carp's body, and the whole fried fish was instantly soaked with water from beginning to end.

Wu Tong put down the empty cup, frowned and asked, What next?

Snapped!

The sound of snapping fingers.

Just like the sound of a lighter turning on and off, at this moment, with a pop, the fish tail raised high in a jumping shape suddenly burst into dazzling flames, and this wisp of flames burned the entire carp in an instant.

boom!

Flames covered the dinner plates.

It's getting angry——

From the ground floor to the top floor, at this moment, the gourmet palace, which is like a sacred place in the Chinese world, is filled with overlapping exclamations.

This fire... is very fast! Wu Tong was startled. As soon as he put the wine glass, his sleeve was on the side of the dinner plate. There were signs of flames spreading on the plate. He was so startled that he quickly removed his hand and mouthed He kept saying: It is impossible for traditional rice wine to burn like this. Wine with a temperature of more than ten degrees at most cannot be ignited no matter how you ignite it...
