"Gentlemen, you're on your way!" Gordon said to the men's team. "Ladies, you've got a point ahead."

"Yes, chef!" The male contestants responded in unison, feeling anxious.

"Chef." Soon, Justin and Sean stood in front of the chef and put their plates in front of the chef.

"Who did it?" Gordon asked, looking up at the plate of scallops that looked impeccable in front of him.

"Me, Chef," Justin replied.

"Well done." Gordon tasted it and nodded with satisfaction, "Congratulations, you scored a point for your team."

"Thank you, chef!" Justin suppressed his excitement, nodded emphatically to the chef, turned around and punched Sean, the two brothers put their shoulders together and laughed at each other.

"Next, I'll help you." Justin said to Sean while running back to the cooking table.

"Thanks, buddy!" Sean nodded with a smile, and patted Justin on the shoulder.

After Justin and Sean, Josh and Brandon also got a point, and it was Josh who was in charge of cooking.

The male contestants have an advantage in collecting scallops, so their serving progress is faster than that of the female contestants.

"Ladies, the men have completed the overtake!" Gordon shouted again after reporting the score again.

With this reminder, the female players became even more anxious.

"No, the round side of the scallop should face inward and the flat side outward." Gordon rubbed the space between his brows, and said to Meg and Whitney, "It's been so long, and you still don't know how to arrange the plate? This is really [beep] seeing you Ghost!" Gordon said as he turned a scallop in a circle, "Did you see it? It's placed like this! This dish doesn't pass, go back and do it again!"

"Yes, chef!" The two of them were stunned by the chef's yelling, and after a while they responded dully and ran back sullenly.

"This plate is overcooked!" Gordon ruthlessly dumped Shaw and Raynor's scallops into the trash can, "Didn't you [beep] see? It's charred and black on one side! I [beep] What I want is golden! Golden!!!”

"Yes, chef." The two looked at each other and walked away aggrieved.

Looking at the contestants rejected by the chef, Julie felt that her hairs were about to stand on end.

"Leah, do you think it's okay to turn it over?" Julie whispered to Yili who was prying the scallops beside her.

"Well, it's fine." Yili nodded, and said in a low voice, "Quickly turn!"

"Ah, good." Julie was still very convinced by Yili's words, and immediately turned over the scallops one by one with a spatula.

Ziliu...

Maybe it was too nervous, maybe it was a slippery hand, Julie accidentally shoveled a scallop outside!

"God!" Julie screamed, and Yili couldn't help but hold her forehead.

"Oh..." The members of the same team and other teams couldn't help but look over, and then they were dumbfounded.

"This..." Julie's tears were about to fall out.

"Don't worry!" Yili immediately added a scallop, "Keep doing it, and see if I can fix it later!"

"Hmm!" Julie was completely lost, and instinctively listened to Yili's words, but still hesitated in her heart.

"It's okay." Yili said softly to her, "Do as I say later."

"Okay." Julie nodded quickly.

After more than 30 seconds.

"Those four are out." Yili said to Julie.

"Wait, but..." Aren't those four familiar yet?Julie looked at Eli.

"..." Asked her for help again, but refused to listen to her, Yili was a little helpless.

"Sorry!" Julie saw Yili's disappointment, apologized quickly, and then filled out the four first as Yili said.

"Turn over." Yili said to Julie, comparing the last scallop put in the pan.

"Okay." Julie had no doubts this time, one side of the scallop was fried.

More than 20 seconds passed.

"Put those four in," Ellie said to Julie.

"Okay." Julie nodded quickly, and put the four scallops in with the undercooked side down.

ten seconds.

"Those four turned over." Yili continued to instruct.

"Okay." Julie nodded quickly.

Another ten seconds.

"Okay." Yili said, "Put it out."

"Yeah." Julie nodded, and carefully took out the scallops—if something happened here, even Leah would not be able to save her.

Yili helped Julie prepare the plate and put the salad, and then said to Julie, "Let's go."

It should be fine.

Take out the four scallops in advance, because I am afraid that reheating will make the scallops overcooked - reheating is necessary, otherwise when the fifth scallop is ready, the first four scallops will definitely be cold, but let alone Left in the pan, it will definitely burn, so only reheat it for the last time.

As long as the time is counted, five scallops can still be cooked together, so the taste is not much different.

As for the four undercooked scallops being returned to the oven, this is actually very common in Hell's Kitchen.

Cooking raw meat and then roasting and frying again, the chef can still tolerate it once in a while, and he will be kicked out of the kitchen after cooking raw meat many times and refusing to correct it.As for frying scallops, the best thing is to cook them in one go, frying one side, then frying the other side, this is the most perfect way.However, since there is an accident, it can only be handled as a special event.

Turning the scallops back and forth multiple times will make the taste half-baked and strange-the side of the scallop is turned out of the pot in turn, turned over several times, and the slightly colder side is reheated in turn, and the heat is the last to reach the inside.Therefore, when the inside is cooked, the upper and lower layers on the outside are already overcooked.That's why dry-fried scallops are best done in one go.

But if it's just a one-time turn, the impact will not be great.

To give a more detailed example, if a perfect scallop that has been fried on both sides is 100 points, then one more turn over will reduce the score by 10 points, and the chef's standard may be 85 or 90, so the 90 points for one turn over The scallops can still pass the chef's review - how many of the chefs present can achieve 100 points every time?

The so-called standard is not a "perfect" standard, but a "passed" standard.

If dishes like scallops are a crash course of "knowing what and why" for other contestants, then for Yili it is an in-depth study of "knowing what and why".She knows how to make this dish well, and also knows how to save it as much as possible—provided that it is not completely hopeless.

Hearing Yili's words, Julie also nodded, held up the plate tremblingly, and together with Yili, walked in front of the chef.

"It looks good." Gordon also noticed the previous accident, and he was deeply impressed by Julie's scrambling and Leah's calmness—accidents often occur in the kitchen, and the chef must To have the ability to handle the kitchen crisis, he was very satisfied with Lia's calm and decisive handling, "Who did it?" But he still asked a routine.

"It's me, Chef." Julie whispered back.When she said this, she was very confident, because she knew that the dishes this time were almost taught to her by Liya verbally.Julie noticed the amused looks on other people's faces when they heard this, which made her even more embarrassed - she felt like she was being laughed at!

At this moment, she suddenly felt a hand gently pat her back, the soft but firm strength, the support and encouragement coming through the thick chef's uniform, made her lower her head—— She was afraid that the chef would see her instantly reddened eye circles.

"The presentation is fine, and it's fried properly." Gordon nodded, cut off a small piece with a knife and fork, tasted it, and nodded again, "The seasoning is also good, and the temperature is right. Yes, ma'am One point for the team."

"Oh!" Julie couldn't help covering her mouth—she didn't expect that under such circumstances, she could still turn the tide of defeat!No, it wasn't her who reversed the defeat, it was Leah!

"Thank you, Chef!" Julie nodded gratefully to Chef, then turned around and gave Eli a huge hug, "Thank you, Leah! Thank you!"

The other party may not know how important it is to her to stay in Hell's Kitchen and perform well here!

The life of a single mother is very difficult. She has to take care of her own children and has almost no chance of work!Now that she has finally come to Hell's Kitchen, it is very important to her to show herself in front of many restaurateurs in front of the TV-Julie wants to win the championship very much, but she also knows that as a housewife, she wants to win these It's too hard to be a professional chef!

Hell's Kitchen has single moms almost every season, but never one single mom wins.In this industry that focuses on professional skills, the difference between professional and amateur is very large.Of course, Julie has the ambition and ambition to win, but in this competition, what is more important to her is to show herself to the chef and others!

She wants to be good, not bad.She originally thought that she would leave a bad impression on the chef this time, but the other party's move helped her save the disadvantage!Even if others saw Lia's role in this accident, she still contributed more or less to this precious point!She scored this point for her team!

"It's okay, it's okay." Yili patted Julie on the shoulder, "Let's go, our work is not over yet."

"Okay!" Julie let go of Yili, nodded to the chef, and the two walked back quickly.

"It's two to two draws now." Gordon announced the score to the players again.

The tight score made the players more nervous.

"Very good." After tasting the scallops served in front of him, Gordon said to Denisa and Irene, "This plate of scallops is very well done, you deserve this point."

"Thank you, Chef!" Denisa and Irene hugged happily.

"Tell me, how many scallops are there in a plate?" Looking at Adam and Dewin standing awkwardly in front of him, Gordon almost couldn't get angry, or it would be more appropriate to say that he was too weak.

"Five, Chef." Adam opened his mouth, and Devin spoke for him.

"What about here?" Gordon pointed vigorously at the scallops on the dinner plate.

"..." Devin looked at the dinner plate, startled, but remained silent—Adam said that he was serving the food this time, so he didn't interfere too much, but he didn't expect...

"Six, sir," Adam replied muffled.

"Very good, I'm glad, you [beep] can count!" Gordon looked at the two, "Still standing here? Go! Heavy! Do it!"

"Yes, chef!" The two were sent away by the chef again.

"The women's team leads the men's team three to two." Gordon reminded both sides.

However, the situation soon turned around.

"That's good," Gordon said to Justin and Sean. "Good work, Sean. You scored a point for the men's team."

"Yeah!" Sean immediately grinned and punched the air heavily, "Thank you, Chef!"

After Sean and Justin, Josh and Brandon also scored a point.

For the women's team, Yili scored a point as no one expected.

This time, the two sides tied four to four again.

However, next, the two teams fell into a bottleneck again.

In the women's team, Renee and Gina lost again, and Whitney and Meg lost again.

In the men's team, Shaw and Reynolds also suffered defeats.

Fortunately, Denisa and Irene, Justin and Sean scored another point for the two teams!

Five to five draw!

"Walk."

By the time Ellie finishes her serving, Julie and Julie are ready to hit the water again - they originally had 20 scallops, which would make exactly 4 plates, which is usually more than enough for any situation.But unexpectedly, everyone's scallops are almost used up now, and the game is still stalemate!It's no surprise though, scallops are inherently tricky for someone who hasn't done it in the past.

Just in case, Yili is going to go into the water to pick scallops again - if the game is over when they come up, it doesn't matter, she doesn't think it's a little hard work.And if the game is not over yet and everyone's scallops are used up, that scallop will become the key and the decisive ingredient!For the slightest possibility of the latter, Yili can jump into the sea again without hesitation!

"Let's go too!"

Seeing Yili and the others put on life jackets and underwater goggles, the male contestants immediately guessed their plans.

Those who also ran out of scallops immediately followed - it's nothing to go hard for a chance of winning!Everyone who comes to Hell's Kitchen has this belief!

However, what Yili lacked was one, and the others lacked several.

Therefore, when Yili and Julie surfaced successively, the others were still floating in the sea.

"How's it going?" Eli asked her teammates.

"Five to five!" Denisa answered Yili first, "Come on! They've run out of scallops!"

"Okay!" Yili didn't expect that her just in case would really become the only one!

Eli quickly dried herself and her hair, changed her clothes again—cooks never stand wet and dirty in the kitchen—and quickly stood in front of her counter.

Thousands of practice sessions, just for a possible chance of winning now!

Even if it is not a decisive victory in the final, every victory will increase my chips in the chef's heart and lay the foundation for my final victory!

Therefore, Yili attaches great importance to every game, and never ignores every game!

The young girl's lips were tightly pressed, her wet and frizzy long hair was messily tied behind her head after being roughly dried, and her delicate facial lines gave the illusion of sharpness in an instant, but she didn't realize it, just Concentrating on handling the most important scallop in her hand.

This kind of concentration is too amazing, as if it can infect other people in silence, so that everyone present can't help but keep quiet, even her opponent can't help being silent.

The middle-aged fat man of the men’s team thought about making a noise and disturbing the opponent, so as to buy some time for their teammates who went into the water to collect scallops—Xiao and Lei Nuo’s scallops just happened to be used up, and they had to collect five scallops, which was too slow , so those male contestants who are only short of two or three go into the water and continue to look for scallops.But Xiao's plan was quickly stopped violently by his teammates!

Before the sound of "Li" was pronounced, three or four big hands mercilessly covered his face, which almost made him lose his temper.

"Shhh!" Xiao Gang wanted to say something, but his teammates made a quiet international hand gesture to him.

"Isn't it good to interfere with her?" Xiao whispered - as long as he didn't get started, the chef would not object to this.Even the chef himself will occasionally find some beautiful and handsome guys to join the stage to test the concentration of the contestants.This is not illegal.

"That's too low," whispered honest Justin.

"Let's wait for our own people to come back," said the good-tempered Uncle Devin.

"Are you embarrassed to interrupt the work of a beautiful woman like Leah?!" Brandon said righteously.

"..." All the other male contestants cast contemptuous glances at him.

"You don't think so?" Brandon disdains the hypocrisy of his teammates, "Do you have any objections to interfering with Mira (fat girl)?"

"..." The male contestants were silent, those who looked at the sky looked at the sky, those who looked at the toes looked at the toes, those who looked at the chef looked at the chef...

"Cut." Only Brandon continued to look at Leah confidently.

At this moment, Josh and Sean also came back from the sea.

"Oh! Brother!" The male contestants in the silent state were immediately excited, "Hurry up! There is still time!"

"Right away!" Josh and Sean shouted and ran back.

Men cleaned themselves up faster than women. They dried themselves in a few seconds, changed their clothes, and stood in front of the cooking counter.

At this time, Yili's oil pan was already heating up!

"Josh, hurry up! You can catch up with her!" The male players cheered for their teammates one after another!

"Leah, come on, you are already ahead!" The female players were not to be outdone, staring at their opponents while cheering for their teammates!

At this moment, let alone a teammate like Denisa who already has a good relationship with Yili, even Renee, who has a terrible relationship with Yili, is very clear about her position-they can enjoy rewards if Lia wins, and they can enjoy rewards if Lia loses. If they are all finished, they will have to work hard to the death!Even if it's just for their own benefit, they all want Leah to beat the boys! ! !

Of course, Renee couldn't say anything like cheering for Yili, but she definitely spared no effort in attacking male players!

"You [beep][beep][beep][beep]!" Except for the subject, all the verbs and objects in Renee's words were coded later.

"You [beep][beep][beep][beep]!" The male players sprayed back not to be outdone.

"You are too [beep] [beep] [beep]!" Gina and Whitney also joined the battle.

"[Beep] [beep] [beep]..." The male players gradually lost.

"[Beep]!" Adam, who is an active soldier, has the most irritable personality, and at this moment, he couldn't help but go over to do it!

"Hold it! Hold it back brother!" The male contestants hugged their legs and hugged their arms one after another to stop their teammates from impulsiveness!

The scene suddenly became chaotic!

Gordon has hosted so many seasons of Hell's Kitchen, this is the first time he has encountered such an angry and funny picture.

He was thinking about making a show of himself, but the director and producer immediately stopped him—just kidding, how could such a powerful scene be interrupted?Those who interrupted were the sinners of their program group!

So, Gordon, who didn't want to be a sinner, could only smile and shake his head, watching this strange scene.

Fortunately, the contestants still remembered Hell's Kitchen. This was the scene of the competition, and they had to abide by the rules, so the scene didn't get too out of control, but the audience was already stunned!

--stunned!

——This is definitely the worst time to tear the exterior of Hell's Kitchen!

——That's right, it's always been torn up internally, and it's the first time that it's unanimously external!I am a little relieved...

——Only I want to say, give me back the lens of Leah?Give it back, give it back, give it back!Don't look at the tearing, but look at Liya's delicious food!Want to eat Leah's scallops, Leah's wellingtons, and Leah's tuna! ! !

——Go to the official website of Hell's Kitchen to make an appointment. If you are lucky, you may be able to get drawn!

——It doesn’t matter if you can’t get it, you can get it when Liya runs this restaurant in the future!

——Although the restaurant is the winner's reward, she doesn't necessarily win...

——Build the sack upstairs!Leah can definitely win!Look at the aura of the champion, look at the queen fan of the town!

——My saliva is about to flow down because of Shuai, I don't know if it's for the scallops, or for... sucking!

——…

In the middle of the dispute between teammates and opponents, under the unblinking stares of the audience in front of the TV in the future, Yi Li had already fried her scallops and neatly arranged them on the dinner plate, and Julie beside her also Quickly put the prepared salad in the center, and after confirming that there was no problem, the two immediately walked towards the chef!

"Josh!" From the moment Yili placed the plate, the male players were reminding their teammates loudly.

"Okay, okay!" Josh was sweating profusely as he loaded the plate, and his teammate Brandon immediately completed the plate arrangement with him, put the salad on, and ran to the chef quickly—they couldn't care less about running. Will the plate and salad be disturbed during the process!

However, the ones who came to the chef first were Yili and Julie who were one step ahead of them!

"Damn!"

The male contestants slapped their thighs regretfully - if they had known, they would have lowered their shame and interfered with her!

In that case, it would be their own people standing in front of Gordon now!

"Maybe there is still a chance. If Leah doesn't do it well, the chef will taste Josh's." Uncle Devin comforted his teammates with a good temper, but he also knew that this was unlikely, after all...

"If Julie does it, maybe there is still a chance, but it's Leah..." The male contestants were about to collapse.

"Last night, her scallops didn't go wrong once! She didn't make a mistake once! Just now, she hit two shots, no, she also helped turn the tide in Julie's time, she was like a scallop grower Big!" Adam said angrily and frustrated.

"Didn't you say that Leah worked in a seafood restaurant before?" Justin said impartially, "It's not surprising that she has such a level in scallops." That is to say, but in his heart, Justin has already regarded the other party as his important Opponent!

"I hope she misses once, misses once, misses once!" Xiao prayed crossing his chest, "She is not God, she cannot be foolproof, she will definitely miss!"

"I hope so." The others sighed in unison, no longer having any hope for this.

"Leah, did you do it again?" Gordon asked as he checked the scallops that Leah served.

"Yes." Yili answered this customary question.

"Now, as long as your plate of scallops is okay, the red team wins and enjoys this reward, and the blue team's plate of scallops doesn't need to be checked; and if you don't do well, I will check the blue team's scallops. ' Gordon emphasized.

The pressure of these words was very great, and almost all the pressure of winning was put on Leah alone.If she wins, she is the hero of the red team; if she loses, she is the eternal sinner of the red team.Gordon wanted to examine the young girl's ability to withstand stress, so he said this, and secretly looked at her expression.

"Yes, Chef." The girl replied calmly with a nod.

Her calm expression was the same as always, as if she was completely unaware of the pressure.But her eyes are extremely bright, they are a pair of eyes eager to win and fearless!As long as the person who looks into these eyes will immediately understand that she knows everything, but she still yearns for the highest victory!Even if you take an incomparable risk for this!

"The layout is very good, not messy at all, very organized." Gordon laughed happily, deliberately starting from the simplest layout, and the players all looked at him with trepidation—the red team hoped to get his Sure, the blue team hoped to get his negation, only the girl involved seemed the calmest, even determined.

"The scallops are perfectly fried, not impatient at all, they are beautiful golden." The girl's calm attitude bored the chef, so he shook his head helplessly, tasted some scallops, nodded, and continued quickly , "The seasoning is also very good."

Gordon's words reached this point, the red team's eyes lit up, and the blue team's fists clenched.

"There is no doubt that this is a scallop of outstanding quality." Gordon nodded to Yili and all the players of the red team, "Congratulations, the red team scored a point, and you have won this round of the challenge! "

"Oh my God! My God!"

"We got the win! We won!"

"We can go out, finally don't have to do [beep] work!"

The female contestants immediately embraced and celebrated each other, and as the person who established this victory—whether it was the victory in the last game or the previous three personal victories, there is no doubt that Leah helped them get the victory by herself. The biggest contributor to the final victory! ——Eli was hugged by her teammates, and all the female contestants had bright smiles on their faces!

"[Beep]!" Among the male contestants, someone cursed secretly.

Just a little bit short, they will be able to win, and they will be able to win this challenge!

They could have hung out instead of being locked up in Hell's Kitchen toiling away!

At this moment, the faces of the female players were filled with smiles, while the faces of the male players were depressed and gloomy.

The loss of the latter added to the joy of the former.

That is the joy of the winner, the joy of the winner!
