Chapter 996: The Gap Comes

"This squid tastes, this squid tastes ......," Wang Xiang said while chewing in his mouth.

"Don't taste the taste, stop your mouth when you speak!" Zhang Yan saw Wang Xiang eating while talking, very uncomfortable.

"This squid tastes very good. Wang Xiang still wanted to save face for Chairman Zhang, so after swallowing a squid whisker, he finally said his evaluation.

Now the people who eat the food made by Yuan Zhou basically have no teacher and have learned a skill, that is, to speak in a straight and round tone while eating.

For example, Wang Xiang just now has a skill, and the key to speaking does not affect his swallowing of food and grabbing vegetables.

Yes, the current four-person jury has entered the mode of grabbing food.

"Of course, squid is delicious, otherwise how would I love squid. Bai Xiaoxiao had just grabbed a squid whisker and said with satisfaction.

"I don't like to eat squid whiskers, but Yuanzhou's squid whiskers are still well worth eating. Zhou Shijie spoke unhurriedly, but the speed of the chopsticks was not slow.

After all, Zhou Shijie is a person who often goes to Yuanzhou's shop, and he has long been familiar with this skill, so he is more relaxed and unhurried.

Zhang Yan, on the other hand, maintained a consistent style, talking less and eating more, which he learned when he was selected as a demonstration store.

Yes, he was silently picking up vegetables, eating and tasting at the same time.

"That squid seems to be very popular?" Although I couldn't hear what the judges said, the situation could still be seen, and I couldn't help but say to Chef Li.

"If there are one or two dishes that are popular, that's right, after all, although he is young, he is still quite famous, and he is famous. Chef Li glanced at Yuan Zhou, and then said calmly.

"But it's almost finished. Ao Bi said dissatisfied.

"Normally, my crawling shrimp is also finished. Chef Li said proudly, but glanced at Ao Bi, who was still frowning, and added, "The conch is also finished." ”

"Yes. Ao Pi was relieved and continued to wait for the score.

Speaking of this score, each dish is a ten-point system, and the score is three points for Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan, and two points for Bai Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiang.

Therefore, the full score of a dish is 10 points, a total of 7 dishes with a total score of 70 points, and whoever has the most total points at that time is which group wins.

Yuan Zhou's cooking has always been less and finer, and this time it is even less, in fact, this is also for the judges' consideration.

After all, this is a competition, not only to eat his own dishes, but also the other party's dishes, with this amount is enough for four people to taste fresh and taste.

No, this eight-clawed flame mountain has already been eaten, and even the side dish onion has not been spared.

A few people also said that the onion has high nutritional value and is soaked in the taste of squid, which is also part of the test of cooking skills, and then several people rushed to eat it all.

Looking at the plate that was cleaner than his face, several judges were a little embarrassed for a while, but Zhou Shijie was more sophisticated, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he spoke directly.

Next, continue with the Seafood Alliance's Flame Squid. Zhou Shijie gestured to Miss Manners.

"Yes, I really should have tasted it. Zhang Yan also said politely.

Bai Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiang, who were a little less senior on the side, also nodded hurriedly and waited to continue eating squid.

"Please wait. When the hostess brought it up, she took out a lighter.

Yes, the squid made by the people of the Seafood Alliance is also flame squid, but it is different from Yuanzhou.

The squid was all threaded onto bamboo skewers of the same length and thickness, wrapped in silver tin foil face down, and the hostess poured a circle of high-grade liquor on the periphery and lit it with a lighter.

With a "boom", the flames burned around the tin foil wrapped in the squid on a white plate, transparent with blue flames, and diffused with a rich aroma of wine.

"It's my turn. Liu Jie from the Red Fang Cooking Table looked at his work with confidence.

"How does Chef Liu feel?" Hearing Liu Jie's words, Chef Li turned his head and asked with a smile.

"Confident. A smile appeared on the corner of Liu Jie's mouth.

"The dish from Yuanzhou just now was eaten, what does Chef Liu think?" Chef Li said.

"His portions are small, it's normal to finish eating, and it may taste good, but it's certainly not as good as mine. Liu Jie said.

"Haha, I'm relieved to have Chef Liu's words. Chef Li smiled and nodded.

The two chatted for a while and then stopped talking, because the judges had already started eating.

The flame burned for about twenty seconds before it went out, and the smell of squid wafted out of the hot tin foil.

"Bang bang. The hostess pushed aside the tin foil, then reached out and made a gesture of please, indicating that it was time to taste.

"Well, a few who will be invited first. Zhou Shijie turned his head and modestly said to the three judges who were slightly half a step behind.

"Naturally, President Zhou, please first. Wang Xiang said.

"You please. Zhang Yan said.

"President Zhou, please taste it first. Bai Xiaoxiao also made a gesture of please.

"Okay, that's up to me. Zhou Shijie smiled on his face, but he was MMP in his heart.

"These slippery heads must want me to eat this defective product to my heart's content, and then I can't eat the food made by Yuanzhou, it's really insidious. Zhou Shijie modestly picked up a string of squid while thinking.

From this humble point alone, this flame squid is far inferior to the eight-clawed flame mountain in Yuanzhou.

Not to mention, as soon as the tin foil was uncovered, Bai Xiaoxiao smelled a very subtle fishy smell in vain.

This taste is not the taste of the sea, but the fishy smell of unprocessed seafood, if you don't eat Yuanzhou's perfect version of squid first, this fishy smell sandwiched in the liquor Bai Xiaoxiao really can't smell it.

But that's what Jewel said before.

In fact, Liu Jie's squid list is still good, the squid has to be eaten hot, the heat is very important, and his flame squid is not only for the curious way of serving but also for the reason of the heat.

Yes, Liu Jie's squid is not fully cooked, but wrapped in tin foil when it is about six years old, and the squid is directly cooked with the heat of liquor burning when it is served.

At this time, the heat was just right, and the temperature was just right, but he didn't think about the problem that the fishy smell was not easy to volatilize when wrapped.

"I haven't eaten Boss Yuan's Eight-Clawed Flame Mountain before, otherwise where would I love to eat this. Bai Xiaoxiao sighed in his heart while eating.

Yes, looking at the food that I loved very much before, this famous dish of Liu Jie is now very disgusting. Bai Xiaoxiao felt that compared with the squid made by Yuan Zhou, this was about an apprentice level.

Fortunately, Liu Jie didn't make much squid, and there were only four skewers left after one string per person.

But the four of them tacitly ignored this matter and directly began to eat the next dish, Liu Jie looked at the remaining four skewers, which was very embarrassing.

Chef Li also patted Liu Jie on the shoulder and comforted him, thinking that the success or failure of one or two dishes is not important, anyway, the total score in the end is higher than that of Yuan Zhou.

The next tasting dishes are all tasted by Yuan Zhou first, so in the eyes of Li Chef and others, this kind of behavior is to leave the delicious food behind, and Yuan Zhou feels that these judges, just like children, eat delicious food first.

Therefore, the same thing, from different standpoints, has completely different meanings, and it may be diametrically opposed.

One dish after another, it didn't take long to eat the last main dish, crab balls, strictly speaking, in terms of cooking methods and ingredient processing, this dish is the most difficult.

"Let's start with Chef Yuan's. Wang Xiang said expectantly.

"This crab looks very good. Zhang Yan nodded.

"I flown in this Dungeness crab from California, it's just big and fresh, and the key is that the leg meat is 60 percent fat. Bai Xiaoxiao said proudly.

"I heard they're still twins. Wang Xiang said teasingly.

"Then I'll have to try it. Zhou Shijie said.

"The following is the last dish of this competition, Chef Yuan's crab dumplings and the seafood alliance's rolling crab dumplings, and the first one to be tasted is Chef Yuan's crab dumplings. The host said at the right time.
