Gourmet food: starting from eating halberds to become a chef

Chapter 58 Eight Treasure Spice Roast Chicken
While boiling, almost everyone in the audience looked at the boy who was still standing at the cooking table. Their eyes were quite complicated, with respect and pity occupying [-]% of the part.

They respected Meng You's culinary skills, but Si Yingshi's culinary skills had already been shown and won unanimous praise from the judges.

When this result comes out, it almost means the result of this battle.

It was impossible for Meng You to defeat Si Yingshi.

Beside the judging stage, Si Yingshi also looked at Meng You who was slowly walking towards this side. Seeing that even in such a desperate situation, his face remained unchanged, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, but he could not win.

At this time, Meng You smiled when he heard the high score from the system.

He succeeded.

He walked up to the stage slowly and put the food on the table.

Looking at the roasted red chicken, but without the magical light seen last time, Sigong frowned slightly: "It seems that you have made this dish before."

Several other people also looked puzzled, they all knew Meng You's growth path.

That dazzling, incredible light seemed to represent the completion of his cooking, and everyone was looking forward to this scene.

But now, this decisive battle is gone. Is this a failure of cooking?

There was also a lot of discussion in the auditorium. No one expected such a situation. Most people have completely determined the outcome of this battle.

Even if they were not optimistic about Meng You before, they still expected to see that magical light.

If Meng You could make luminous dishes, he might be able to compete with Si Yingshi.

Now this representative logo is gone, how to compare?
Youji Liangzi and others from Jixingshe clenched their fists with disappointment and nervousness on their faces. Xiao Hui looked at Meng You and prayed in his heart.

On the stage, Si Yingshi also had disappointment in his eyes. He originally thought that he would be able to see the luminous cooking, and then formally defeat Meng You, but now it seems that Meng You failed.

Erina, who was at the far side, looked at Ziji and then at Meng You, feeling a little nervous and uncomfortable for no reason.

she feels.

It seemed that Meng You was really going to lose this time.

And Meng You himself looked at Sigong and smiled lightly: "It's similar, I'm sorry, there is still the last step."

last step?
Sigong was stunned for a moment, and as soon as he said this, everyone in the audience was full of doubts.

The dishes are all served, where is the last step?
Ji Xingshe and the others' eyes lit up, maybe there is a turning point?

Erina's eyes also shimmered, watching Meng You walk quickly to the cooking table, took a kitchen knife back, and stood in front of the judging table.

Looking at Meng You whose eyes were fixed, Erina swallowed lightly, her heart beating rapidly.

brush!
Concentrating like an excellent pianist starting to play the piano, Meng You swung down his kitchen knife.

The plump chick was split open and split into two halves.

And an unbelievable scene appeared again, the magical light shining from the cut chicken belly.

The audience was in awe, and then there were bursts of wild shouts: "It has appeared! Luminous dishes!"

Seeing this dazzling light, even the students who had already decided that Meng You must lose shouted excitedly.

This has nothing to do with winning or losing, it's everyone's praise for the unbelievable and the miracle!

At close range, Si Yingshi was also attracted by this beautiful scene, and his eyes were immersed in it.

Although the judges looked relatively calm, their eyes that had been staring closely revealed their inner excitement.

Only Erina, the boulder in her heart fell, staring at the smiling Meng You with her violet eyes, an idea naturally came up in her heart.

He seemed so relaxed and indifferent all the time.

After about three to five seconds, the light dissipated.

Everyone came back to their senses, and Si Yingshi slowly regained his composure. Looking at the dishes under the light, he turned his eyes back to his few plates of fried hungry bird meat, his eyes were full of confidence.

Even if it is a luminous dish, it is impossible to beat him. It is an invincible castle piled up with two high-grade ingredients.

Sigong looked at the contents of the chicken's belly and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is this rice? I remember that there is a dish in Chinese cuisine called eight-treasure duck. Did you get the inspiration from that dish?"

On the big screen, the situation of the chicken is projected.

The plump rice grains are stuffed into the belly of the chick, which is well filled, as if it is growing with rice itself.

At this time, everyone also discovered that there were small pinholes in the incision made by the chicken, which were sewn on later.

"Yes, this is glutinous rice." Meng You nodded slightly.

Eight-treasure duck, a famous traditional dish in Jiangsu and Shanghai, was later spread to various cuisines, forming their own characteristics. The most important point is that it was once entered into the palace and became a famous imperial cuisine in the Forbidden City.

Before, he considered improving the roasted chicken with honey sauce and spices. After all, he got Jun Shiomi's high-grade spice ingredients.

For this reason, he came up with a variety of solutions, and this one was the one he felt the best after experimenting.

Looking at Si Yingshi, Meng You continued: "I don't have any tasting rules for this dish. The chicken body and the glutinous rice inside are all edible, and you don't need to care about the temperature. It also has a unique flavor, which the judges like."

After a moment of silence, Roland Schapper spoke first: "I like light food, so just eat glutinous rice."

The staff on the side also came up consciously, spooned a few spoonfuls of rice and served it to him.

Looking at the crystal clear rice grains in front of him, Roland Schapper's eyes flashed with surprise.

Generally speaking, no matter how high the quality of glutinous rice or rice is, no matter how well it is handled, it is still off-white, as crystal clear as it is transparent.

Unheard of.

Glancing at Si Yingshi, the rice feels almost the same as the meat just now.

He picked up the spoon a little and sent it to his mouth. Meng You's voice came from next to his ear: "I'm afraid I will disappoint you, teacher."

He glanced at Meng You suspiciously, the glutinous rice in the spoon had entered his mouth, and his pupils shrank.

The glutinous rice exploded in his mouth.

That's right, it was an explosion. In an instant, a strong and fragrant rice fragrance started from the tip of the tongue to the root of the tongue, then to the throat, esophagus and even rushed into the stomach. He felt that every cell in his body was cheering. The deliciousness of life is extremely joyful, which cannot be described in words.

After the joy, his mind relaxed, his whole body seemed to have undergone the most advanced massage, and his body also relaxed. Just as he was about to open his eyes, he chewed the last glutinous rice lightly.

A more intense, indescribable smell jumped out. It was a magnificent building piled up with countless high-grade spices. He felt as if he was in a fairyland. He wanted to open his eyes but felt too comfortable, even I couldn't even lift my eyelids.

Gentle and cheerful notes were played in the ears, and the body sank slightly with the feeling, as if entering a hot spring with just the right water temperature, completely relaxing the body and mind.
