Rich Man and Wife Raising Cubs [Rebirth]

The lottery box was carried up by a staff member.

Wang Jianzhang's heart was beating so fast that it was about to pop out of his throat. He wiped his sweat with his sleeve and walked forward under everyone's gaze.

The dark lens of the camera was shooting at him, Wang Jianzhang gritted his teeth, and stretched his hand into the box.

The hand touched the bottom, but did not touch the "sticky paper sticking to the bottom" that Ma Yang said.

The case must have been replaced.

His heart sank to the bottom in an instant, but he tried to keep calm on his face, he casually took out a piece of paper and handed it to the hostess.

"Contestant No. 2 Wang Jianzhang drew Zhejiang cuisine. Zhejiang cuisine pays attention to knife skills and original taste. I wonder if our famous chef of Zhejiang cuisine, Chen Junwen, will pose a problem for contestant No. 2?" The hostess smiled. After speaking, he handed the microphone to Chen Junwen.

Chen Junwen is a man in his 40s, with fair skin and gentle temperament, and he speaks very softly: "I am going to make a famous dish in the Southern Song Dynasty, and I hope the No. 2 contestant can understand the essence of this dish."

Wang Jianzhang was very flustered, and smiled dryly: "I will work hard."

It was He Yan's turn next, and she drew Sichuan cuisine.

When he finally arrived at Kaixin, he nervously handed the signing paper to the hostess, and then saw her raise her eyebrows in surprise:

"So you are the 'lucky one'! Contestant No. 8 was drawn for Cantonese cuisine, which means he wants to reproduce Shi Tianhua's dishes. Old Shi, do you have anything to say to Kaixin?"

Shi Lao was wearing a white chef uniform, his old face looked unexpectedly bleak against the white cloth.

He spoke, his voice sounded a little hoarse: "I hope Kai Xin will think carefully before doing it."

Kai Xin respectfully replied "Yes", and then returned to her cooking table.

The remaining five contestants quickly finished drawing lots, and the hostess announced immediately: "The eight contestants are invited to rest in the lounge. Let's take a look at the demeanor of the eight famous chefs."

The eight contestants, led by the boy with the black frame, entered a lounge in the studio.

The lounge is brightly lit and there are several full leather sofas. After the contestants choose their seats and sit down, two cameramen start to take pictures of the contestants waiting.

The camera was filming non-stop, and two supervisors from the program team supervised the whole process to prevent the players from violating the rules.

Time passed very slowly. Although everyone was in a hurry, they all waited silently for the notice to play.

An hour later, the staff knocked on the door of the lounge and invited the eight contestants back to the scene.

The air was filled with the aroma of food, and the eight celebrity chefs had already left from the cooking table and sat on the newly added chairs beside the guest seats.

"All contestants are invited to return to their respective cooking tables, taste the dishes of the famous chefs and reproduce them. The countdown is one hour, starting now!"

With an order, all the players started to move.Kai Xin trotted back to her cooking counter, and was the first to discover the dishes on the counter.

A layer of emerald green lettuce rests on a long white china plate, topped with red lobster heads and tail tips.The lobster meat in the center is placed on tomato slices, and the lobster is topped with ham and poached egg whites.A white butterfly was placed next to the porcelain plate, which contained a thick brown sauce.

Kaixin immediately thought of the famous Chaozhou dish that he had seen before - lobster with lettuce.

He was overjoyed at first, then frowned.

Although he knows how to make this dish, Shi Tianhua's method must have his own uniqueness, so he can't take it lightly.

He picked up the serving chopsticks, carefully picked up an "alternative sandwich" made of tomatoes, lobster, ham slices and egg whites, dipped it in the brown sauce in the small dish, and put it in the small dish he tried.

The lobster meatballs are fresh and sweet, the ham tastes soft and rotten, the fresh tomatoes and the crispy egg whites, and the processing of each ingredient is perfect. Under the slightly spicy and sour sweet sauce, this wonderful combination creates a unique combination. delicious.

He couldn't help feeling in his heart that Shi Tianhua's title of master of Cantonese cuisine really deserved his name.

When he moved his chopsticks for the second time, he tasted each ingredient one by one.

The lobster is almost tasteless and has no water vapor. It should be boiled with water in the shell; the ham is sliced ​​​​slowly stewed to ensure the taste and shape.

The tomato and lettuce are raw, and the egg whites are boiled eggs. It is not difficult to peel, but the sauce is sweet and sour, slightly spicy but not irritating, and it has a rustling taste in the mouth. It is made by mixing the seasonings together.

He glanced at the bottles and jars of seasoning on the cooking table, hoping to find something from the traces of use.

However, the careful program team has replaced all the seasonings and kitchen utensils with brand new ones, not giving the contestants any opportunities for opportunism.

Kai Xin had no choice but to use the tip of the chopsticks to dip some sauce on the tip of his tongue, savoring it carefully.

The sauce has the aroma of sesame and peanut oil, which seems to be a mixture of sesame paste and peanut oil; the sweet and sour is because of white vinegar and sugar, and the spicy is mustard.

Kaixin probably tasted several seasonings in the sauce, and immediately began to try them.

The hostess saw that Kaixin hadn't started to operate here, so she walked over holding the microphone, and asked with concern: "Did Kaixin encounter any problems?"

Kaixin nodded and said: "I'm researching the sauce, but I can only confirm a few seasonings, and I always feel that there is something missing."

The hostess smiled knowingly, and then said: "The sauce is indeed very important, but don't forget that the competition time is only one hour, and it must be completed within the specified time limit."

After Kai Xin said hello, the hostess saw the steaming steam rising from Wang Jianzhang's cooking table, and she said to the camera while walking: "It seems that Wang Jianzhang has already started to fight, let's see what he is doing. do what."

The camera followed closely, and quickly focused on Wang Jianzhang and the dish on his table.

The dish was a bit unique, a cover was dug out from the top of a few oranges, the middle was hollowed out, and fillings were put in, it was impossible to tell what it was just by looking at the outside.

Something was steaming in the steamer in front of Wang Jianzhang, and the aroma of the pot could not be smelled for the time being; there was also a timer on the countertop, and the electronic numbers on it were constantly beating.

The hostess naturally knew what this dish was, but she still held up the microphone and asked Wang Jianzhang: "Do you know what this dish is going to be reproduced?"

Wang Jianzhang was rinsing the oranges under the faucet, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and replied: "This dish should be crab stuffed oranges, which is a classic dish in Zhejiang cuisine. The cooking method is to pick out the crab meat and mix it with the orange meat." Mix them together, then put them into a small gu made of orange peel and steam them in a pan."

As he spoke, he skillfully dug out a small lid from the orange peel with the knife in his hand.

The hostess stopped bothering him and returned to the guest seats.

Shi Tianhua sat on the chair, staring at the huge screen next to the guest seats, seeing all the operations of Kaixin and Wang Jianzhang.

Then, he covered his mouth with his fist and coughed lightly.

10 minutes have passed, and all the players are working hard, except Kai Xin who is still thinking about the taste of the sauce, and has not done it for a long time.

He tried several matching ratios, but compared with the sauce prepared by Shi Tianhua, it was still a little bit worse.

Suddenly, he caught sight of the main dish on a white porcelain plate.

The lobster meat is stacked with thin slices of pink ham and white protein, which has been cut into small pieces of uniform size and has a faint luster on the surface.

A bright light suddenly flashed in Kaixin's mind, and he instantly thought of the key point.

It's egg yolk!The missing flavor in the sauce should be the egg yolk!

After the egg yolk is cooked, it will have a rustling taste, and the fat and protein contained in it will increase the layer and viscosity of the sauce, enriching the taste.

With an excited look on his face, he trotted all the way to the ingredients area, brought lobster, eggs, ham, lettuce, tomatoes and other ingredients, and immediately started to operate.

Kai Xin boiled two pots of water.Eggs and lobsters can only be processed after the water is boiled, and the tomatoes also need to be peeled. After washing the lettuce and drying the raw water, he began to cut the ham.

The dark red fresh ham was very hard, Kaixin tried a few times, and finally cut a slice he was satisfied with, and then rubbed sugar on the surface of the ham.

This is the experience he learned when studying Hu Huifang's "Ingredient Collection".As a dry product, ham is difficult to stew, but if it is smeared with sugar before cooking, it will not only become soft and rotten, but also taste more delicious.

Estimating the time, he first put the ham and eggs into two boiling water pots to simmer; after the eggs were cooked, he set up a new pot of water to boil, inserted the chopsticks into the tail of the lobster, and put the lobster into the pot to blanch. When cooked, wait to cool.

The boiled egg yolks are taken out, crushed and mixed with Kai Xin's sauce.

Kaixin tried Shi Tianhua and his own sauce again with a nervous mood, and finally showed a bright smile when he found the same taste on the tip of his tongue.

The ham on the pot was also stewed, Kai Xin quickly fished it out, put the lettuce, tomato, lobster, ham, egg white on the long black porcelain plate in order, filled the sauce, and raised his right hand.

The female supporter saw his gesture and said to the guest seats: "I didn't expect Kaixin, who was lagging behind at the beginning, to be the first one to finish. Ask him to bring Chef Shi Tianhua and his dishes together!"

The hostess invited Shi Tianhua to sit down in the vacant seat of the guest seat, while Kai Xin carefully brought up two servings of lettuce and lobster on a tray.

Long plates and small plates of different black and white are placed on the long wooden table, but the appearance of the dishes on the plate is almost the same, which makes people wonder what is the difference in taste between the two.

Kaixin clenched her fists and stared anxiously at the expressions and movements of the guests.

Shi Tianhua was the first to move his chopsticks.He directly picked up a piece of lobster made by Kaixin, rolled it in the thick sauce and put it in his mouth.

The other three guests also moved, first savoring Shi Tianhua's portion carefully, and then Kai Xin's portion.

Shi Tianhua chewed slowly, his brows were furrowed all the time, making it impossible to guess whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied.

Kai Xin breathed a sigh of relief and kept staring at his expression.

Shi Tianhua finally swallowed the lobster, frowned and said: "Purely from the taste, the lobster is tender, the ham is soft and rotten, the lettuce is torn by hand like me, and the tomatoes are peeled. Find the deficiency."

Kai Xin nodded, nervously waiting for him to continue commenting on the sauce.

Shi Tianhua immediately sighed and shook his head: "As for the sauce, I can't taste it."

Kaixin looked at him in astonishment, unable to believe what she heard.

What exactly does Shi Tianhua mean?Do you think there is no difference, or can't judge at all?
