Was fired and opened a gourmet food store

Xu Ziqi was fiddling with the ingredients and didn't answer immediately.

Zhang Meng seemed stunned for a moment, but didn't rush to ask.

She was very patient, staring at Xu Ziqi with a soft look for a while, then she calmed down and regained her composure, smiling slightly and said, "Master Xu, please introduce it to us."

Before Xu Ziqi answered, netizens were already chatting very enthusiastically and started gossiping.

"This handsome guy looks a bit aloof, ignoring the female host."

"She was concentrating on cooking, maybe she didn't hear it."

"How is that possible? If you ask me, did you see the affectionate look in the female host's eyes, these two must be having an affair."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could my wife like someone else?"

"Enough of one by one, if you want to ship CP, go somewhere else. The chef is concentrating on cooking, but you interpret it like this."

...

And Xu Ziqi finally began to answer. He lowered his head to fiddle with the ingredients and uttered a short word: "Soup."

"What soup?" Zhang Meng looked at a chicken on the chopping board curiously, which had been chopped into small pieces.

"Chicken soup?"

"Yeah." Xu Ziqi nodded.

"What is chicken soup made of?" Zhang Meng continued to ask.

She only saw some ingredients on the table, which seemed to be some medicinal materials.

Could it be medicinal soup?

Suddenly, she understood, it should be.

She had done her homework before, and found that Cantonese cuisine is not complete without soup.

If there is any dish that can be regarded as the representative of Cantonese cuisine, the old fire soup must have a place.

It not only has a wide variety of varieties, but also has a rich preparation method, and the taste of the product is even more bizarre.

After slow cooking, the old fire soup is often mixed with a variety of medicinal materials and fresh ingredients.

The fire is sufficient and the time is long, which can take the great tonic of the medicinal materials and the sweetness of the mouth.

You don’t have to drink it after cooking. Just smelling the fragrance makes people unable to stop, and after a light sip, the whole body and mind are comfortable from the inside out.

And what kind of soup did Xu Ziqi make?

He quickly gave the answer.

Suddenly squatting down, Xu Ziqi took out a thing from under the table.

This thing is about the size of a basketball. It is emerald green with a little light brown, and it looks a bit solid.

Some netizens who know the business saw it at once.

"Isn't this a coconut?"

"This young chef wants to make soup with coconut?"

"If you don't understand, just ask, how to make soup with coconut?"

"Use coconut water to cook it, and add some chicken. I tried it once and it tasted pretty good."

...

At this time, Xu Ziqi in the studio also introduced to Zhang Meng: "Coconut chicken soup."

"So that's it." Zhang Meng nodded, suddenly realizing.

She knew this soup and had drunk it before.

This soup is actually very simple, even too simple. In one sentence, it is chicken boiled in coconut water.

But she didn't understand why she chose this soup when there are so many kinds of old-fashioned soups?

You know, today's show brings together master chefs from eight major cuisines.

In this ultimate competition, everyone will bring out their signature dishes and the superb cooking skills that have accumulated for decades.

In such a fierce competition, everyone should try their best. Other chefs take it so seriously, but you only bring out a dish of chicken boiled in coconut water?

It's a bit perfunctory...

Why is this?

Is it because he looks down on other chefs, or because simple dishes can better reflect the chef's skills?

Zhang Meng didn't understand, and the other chefs who were eavesdropping also curled their lips when they heard this.

I thought this kid was going to make some amazing dishes...

And this is it?

This thing can be made by everyone. It's nothing more than heating coconut water and then adding chicken, and adding a little salt for seasoning.

It's not like other old-fashioned soups, which require very precise heat to control the herbs and ingredients to achieve a perfect balance. Just heat it and adjust the taste according to your own habits.

It can be said that no cooking skills are required at all.

As long as the average person has both hands, they can operate it completely, and the product is generally not bad.

Whether it is the chef of the restaurant or the parents at home, the taste is almost the same, and there is no difference between the chefs.

It seems that this kid is not very good...

In this way, perhaps his first place in the first stage was just a coincidence, and he was exposed in the second stage.

The other chefs breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. They felt relieved. With just this one dish, they didn't think Xu Ziqi had any chance.

After all, they all brought out their signature dishes. Only this guy didn't try his best and brought out this soup to fool people.

With this one dish,No matter how they cook, they will not taste bad. They produce quite stable dishes. Coming to fish in troubled waters and compete with their signature dishes, and even wanting to win, is simply looking for death.

But if you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with doing this.

In the case of poor cooking skills, he can appropriately avoid his own shortcomings and lose less ugly. This kid is quite smart.
