Star Food Tycoon

In order to test the chef's skills to the greatest extent, the ingredients provided by the organizing committee are very simple.

If you can still use all kinds of rare ingredients to enhance freshness, you can't do it now.

The main ingredient here is only one chicken.

How to maximize the umami taste of this chicken in the soup is the skill of the chef.

The average chef is only good at one type of cuisine, or one type of cuisine.

But since they are among the top 1000 young chefs in the entire ASEAN star field, even if they are only good at one type of cuisine or one type of cuisine, their other basic skills are not bad.

Tofu and chrysanthemum seem to be difficult, but to put it bluntly, there are two basic skills tested, one is knife skills, and the other is making broth.

This ancient Chinese dish, which has been passed down to this day, is not only a compulsory course for chefs in ASEAN, but also a compulsory course for chefs in Western Union.

But the simpler it is, the more core it is. I don't know who will be defeated in this round.

Although Xuan Jing was young, he participated in this security work as the vice-captain because he had made many contributions before.

Because Xia Zheng was "attacked by a terrorist organization", Xuan Jing personally led the team to preside over the order of the examination room after consulting his superiors.

So the smell of the chicken soup was particularly irritating to him.

Obviously, I went out to eat in the morning and my stomach was full, but now I was smoked by the smell of chicken soup, and the remaining food in my stomach was suddenly wiped out, and a riot broke out.

Xuan Jing felt a little ashamed when he heard his stomach growling, but he calmed down when he heard the belly chorus of his comrades around him.

"It's a sweet torture." Because they are not standing guard in front of the public, but in the shadows, they can still say, "I don't know what it smells like."

"This is the most powerful 1000 young chefs in our ASEAN star field, and the food must be delicious." A security guard praised, "In the future, there may be a figure on the chef ranking list of the entire alliance, but unfortunately, I can't taste it. .”

Security personnel are not necessarily rich or expensive, and the people on the chef list are not necessarily rich or noble.

"I don't know for sure, work hard, the master also has time to work." Xuan Jing rubbed his chin.Speaking of which, he hasn't tasted other children's crafts yet, when will he have a meal?

I don't know what the kid's bowl of chrysanthemum tofu tastes like, but it's definitely not bad.

… Xia Zheng had already finished making the soup.

If the umami is not enough, you can only think of other ways.It's just seasoning, how can it compare to natural umami?

Therefore, it is necessary to do some clever methods to force out the umami taste of the old hen in a short time.

This tricky method, everyone has their own unique skills, as for the few people who are not very good at hanging soup, they can only suffer from this.

In other words, I am not good at learning, and I can't even make the simplest soup.

Xia Zheng filtered the clear soup and put it back into the pot.Then, he chopped the reserved chicken breasts into puree, added minced green onion, minced ginger, cooking wine and a little water and mixed well. After oozing blood, poured it into clear soup and heated it with Wangyan.

While heating, Xia Zheng pushed and stirred the soup with his hand spoon. When the soup was about to boil, he immediately turned to low heat and continued to cook.The fine dregs in the soup are gradually absorbed by the minced chicken, bonded together, and float out of the soup surface.

After Xia Zheng fished out the impurities, he repeatedly used chicken breast puree to clarify the impurities until the soup was as clear as water.

And the seasonings he used to make the soup also went through the chicken breast paste added when clarifying impurities several times, and gradually penetrated into the soup.

The umami taste of the meat paste also greatly improves the umami taste of the chicken soup caused by insufficient stewing time.

Finally, Xia Zheng shredded the vegetables and kept blanching them in the clear soup, and dyed the greasy broth with the fresh taste of vegetables to relieve the greasiness.

Finally, he let the vegetable shreds sink into the bottom of the clear soup as a decoration, and then put three pieces of tofu into the soup one by one.It was obviously still a whole piece of tofu, but when it was put into the soup, the shredded tofu would spread out.Xia Zheng arranged the shape with chopsticks, and the three pure white bean curd flowers were really like chrysanthemums, blooming in the bowl.

But Xia Zheng felt that the shredded tofu was too thin and light, and it didn't float like a chrysanthemum, but a jellyfish.

He complained a few words in his mind, indicating that his entry had been completed, and rubbed the bowl with the identity form he brought. After the entry was signed, the staff took it away.

When Xia Zheng was ready, the other chefs followed suit.

The audience watched for a long time while covering their stomachs or noses, and finally saw the scoring session.

Needless to say, Xia Zheng ranked first in the cutting of shredded tofu—he had spent much more time practicing knife skills in his past and present lives than this group of chefs, and he ranked first without the extra points of blindfolding.

The reason why she was blindfolded was because Luo Xin was blindfolded.Xia Zheng thought that even if he had the best knife skills, some unscrupulous media might still use this to attack him and complain about Luo Xin—maybe Xia Zheng cut off the tofu directly while blindfolded.

It's not like he can't do it, so let's do it together.

Knife No.2 is actually not Luo Xin.Although the work he completed blindfolded reached the standard of being thin enough to pierce a needle, it was not as good as looking at the uniform cut after all.

So the No.2 judges discussed for a while, and finally Luo Xin ranked second with the highest score.Chefs have no objection to this score.After all, if he thought he could cut it himself, he would cut it blindfolded with Xia Zheng and Luo Xin.

"I can't cut well with my eyes closed." The chef with the third highest score also said sincerely, "This is very powerful."

Xia Zheng remembers the chef who was ranked third. Before he was reborn, he was also ranked third. His name was Shi Ren. He was a simple-minded young man with good talent and diligence. It's just that the demon star has suppressed his reputation.

But after the game they had a friendship.After this competition, he should try to make friends again.

Xia Zheng was blindfolded, and the cut was still the best, which caused a sensation in the scene.Some old-timers who came to watch the game in disguise couldn't help showing a look of surprise.

From generation to generation, there are evildoers.Is this going to be a monster again?

Luo Xin also showed a surprised expression on his face.He had long heard that there was a person with the same perfect score as him in the screening. He thought he had met an interesting opponent, but he really wanted to be crushed?

My heart is very subtle.

He immediately looked around to find the person who crushed him, and finally found that this person lived next door to him.

Seeing Luo Xin looking over, Xia Zheng hurriedly looked away.He can't let this snake spirit say something disgusting like "At that time we had a tacit understanding and looked at each other in twos, and this glance is 1 years of past and present lives".

However, Luo Xin noticed Xia Zheng turning his head, and he felt that this person was looking at him.

"Could it be that I'm so handsome and in love with me and shy?" Luo Xin muttered to herself, "Oh, it's all because I'm so charming."

Although the voice was not loud, people around him could still hear it.Everyone who could hear trembled.

What's wrong with this guy?Suddenly say this kind of emotion?

"I didn't expect that someone could cut qualified chrysanthemum tofu blindfolded." Li Xin said with emotion, "There is even a person who can guarantee the best knife skills under the premise of blindfolded cutting. This competition is really beyond human Unexpected."

"However, the top two players in the current score are our seed players Xia Zheng and Luo Xin. This is still within our expectation." Qu Jia added, "And these two are so handsome. Xia Zheng He is very well-behaved and handsome, and Luo Xin has a kind of playboy temperament. The two of them, one good and one evil, make people drool."

Li Xin's black line: "Talent and good looks, this God is really unfair. I have all the food and beauty, no wonder the beauties around me are also drooling."

The two laughed and said a few narrow words, both the audience and the audience watching the live broadcast nodded.Indeed, these two young people are not bad in appearance.In terms of absolute appearance, Luo Xin is much more handsome than Xia Zheng.But looking at Xia Zheng makes people feel comfortable, and makes people smile unconsciously. It belongs to the type that becomes more and more attractive, and the more you look at it, the more you like it.

This is probably the temperament?Some viewers thought.

While the host and the audience were discussing the appearance of Luo Xin and Xia Zheng, the soups of the top [-] chefs had already been tasted by the judges in turn, while the chefs who were eliminated were left sadly.

In the end, many chefs shed tears. Being eliminated in the first round or in public was indeed too cruel.The audience who watched couldn't help but began to sob.

The game is so cruel.It made those who stayed feel heavy.

Several judges in the first round were born in different places and have different tastes.

The so-called delicious, is not absolute.Delicious, that is a person's subjective feeling.

Sometimes people feel that the craftsmanship of restaurant chefs may not be as delicious as the seemingly rough food of their own family, that is because their food has been gradually adjusted to the taste that is most acceptable to you over the years.

The chef, on the other hand, blends out a taste that everyone can accept.

Food, that is the art on the tip of the tongue.Different tongue tips have different senses.

Xia Zheng has always put people first in cooking food.This may also have something to do with his previous life, where he practiced food and cooked spiritual food.

The most powerful spiritual food is to adjust the formula differently from person to person.The public formula, the effect is not as strong as the special one.

The origins of the gourmet judges present have been announced before. This is also to let the chefs do their homework early. When cooking, it varies from person to person and seeks the best harmony.

Otherwise, if you serve spicy sticks to judges who don't like spicy food, and bowls of vinegar to judges who don't like sour food, you're looking for death.

Xia Zheng reckoned that the chef with the lowest score in the audience—two judges even showed appalling scores—may have no brains and cook the taste of the cuisine he is best at, instead of blending the taste according to the taste of the judges Alright.

In any case, he entered the second round with the highest score in the game.

The title of the second round of the game is, heat.
