Chapter 054: Focus on Upgrades

Inferior ingredients are not so easy to find, but fortunately, I have accumulated a lot of experience in finding inferior ingredients before Gu Zheng, and I know how to find them, so I can avoid detours. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Gu Zheng accepted the challenge to do duck blood vermicelli soup, the main ingredients are ducks and vermicelli, the ducks raised are basically garbage grade, even poisonous ingredients, few poultry can reach the low level, and the free-range ones are mostly low-grade, a few are garbage, but the inferior ones are difficult to appear, it all depends on luck.

It is not easy for any ingredient to reach inferior, the classification of ingredients in the fairy world is very strict, taking ducks as an example, as long as a free-range duck has eaten feed, even if it is only eaten once, its grade can only be low at most, and it is impossible to reach inferior.

Don't look at the word secondary, this is the hierarchy of the fairy world, it is already a very good existence on the earth, and it can be seen through the few second-class ingredients found in the ancient contention, whether it is the ice spring mineral water in the Alps, or the seaweed salt in Peru, or the Fujian oil, it is basically the best and top existence of similar products.

The inferior level of the fairy world is almost equal to the top of the earth, so if you want to find such a duck, you can't go to the market, or even the farm, and you have some hope of going to the mountains or farmers.

In addition to duck, another ingredient is vermicelli.

Sweet potato flour is the best for vermicelli, the vermicelli in that store is very good, it is a low-grade ingredient, if there is no bonus points on the vermicelli, Gu Zheng will not even give them fifty points.

Gu Zheng wants to do better than them, the fans have to use inferior fans with higher grades than them, low-grade fans are okay, after all, sweet potatoes are underground, as long as pesticides do not seep into the ground, no chemical fertilizers, or the amount of chemical fertilizers is very small, low-quality sweet potatoes are still easy to grow.

Inferior sweet potatoes combined with the same low-quality groundwater can be used to cook vermicelli with low-grade ingredients.

But it is difficult to make the vermicelli inferior, first of all, the place where the sweet potato is grown cannot use any pesticides and fertilizers, and like ducks, once these raw materials are used, the grade of the sweet potato cannot reach the second grade, and the highest is low.

There is only one level of difference between inferior and inferior, but it is difficult to get over it, especially in the current environment.

After Gu Zheng planned carefully, the first ingredient he came out to look for was vermicelli.

To be exact, what he is looking for is the raw material for making fans, and he knows that there is a green base near Hangzhou. But strictly speaking, it is not a base at all, but a scientific research center, which is to study the excellence and modification of some crops, and the land there does not use any chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

When he went out in the morning, he went straight here.

The scale of the base is not large, but the management is very strict, the things here are not for sale, if it is not for the ancient dispute here, even the door can not enter, there are as many as six security guards guarding the gate, and the surrounding is full of walls with cables, people who don't know still think that this is a prison.

There is a relationship to do things, Gu Zheng originally just wanted to see if there were inferior sweet potatoes here, even if there were no low-grade sweet potatoes here, there must be low-grade sweet potatoes, take some low-quality sweet potatoes back, and enter the desolate space to be promoted to second-class, but he didn't expect that after coming here, he actually gave him a big surprise.

There is a piece of land here, and the quality of the sweet potatoes grown has reached the second grade, not only sweet potatoes, but also green onions, ginger peppercorns and some other auxiliary materials are planted here, all of which are inferior quality, which is equivalent to letting Gu Zheng find all the ingredients at once.

It was a big surprise indeed.

The deputy director and Gu Zheng's father knew each other in the early years, and the relationship was very good, Gu Zheng's father also helped him a little, and I heard Gu Zheng say that he just wanted to order sweet potatoes and green onions and ginger and other things, and with a wave of his hand, someone immediately prepared a bag for Gu Zheng, which contained twenty-five catties of sweet potatoes alone, if he wasn't worried that Gu Zheng couldn't take it, there would be twice as many sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes plus other ingredients, a snakeskin bag is full of thirty catties, it must have been very tiring to carry it by himself in the past, but now with fairy power to improve physical fitness, it is much easier to lift.

Twenty-five catties of sweet potatoes looks like a lot, and there are not many fans that may come out.

Sweet potatoes are made into vermicelli, first of all, the sweet potatoes must be turned into sweet potato powder, four to six catties of sweet potatoes can make a pound of sweet potato flour, in order not to affect the quality of sweet potato flour, Gu Zheng does not plan to use a machine to beat, with the original method to grind, so the yield will be lower.

One pound of sweet potato flour can only cook about seven taels of vermicelli, so if you calculate it, twenty-five catties of sweet potatoes can actually get less than three catties of vermicelli, which is not much.

Nowadays, there are a lot of cheap sweet potato vermicelli on the market, six, five, or even two or three pieces, these low-priced pure sweet potato noodles are 100% fake, and the cost of pure sweet potato vermicelli is more than this, basically made of starch, pretending to be sweet potato vermicelli to sell.

With sweet potato flour and other ingredients, even if you can't find a second-grade duck, as long as you buy a low-quality duck and enter the desolate space to improve it, it is equivalent to having a full set of second-class ingredients.

With these ingredients, this challenge is equivalent to saying that Gu Zheng is already invincible, and the gap in ingredients is too big for ordinary cooking skills to make up for at all, not to mention that Gu Zheng's own cooking skills are not bad.

Another day has passed, and this topic on the website has become more and more popular, with more than 100,000 followers, which is the most followed topic recently, and may even be the most concerned topic of the year on the food channel this year.

The gap in voting has gradually widened, and the number of people who support Gu Zheng has decreased a little, and the proportion of people who think he can win is now only 30%, and the support of the head chef has risen to 70%.

At the beginning, Gu Zheng could have such a high support rate, because he had more die-hard fans at that time, but Gu Zheng's hardcore fans were only those, and later the attention increased, attracting many readers who didn't know Gu Zheng, most of these readers went to support professional chefs, and no one thought that a non-professional could win in cooking.

On the third day, the day before the challenge, the senior management of the website suddenly decided to track and report the matter in real time, and even put the challenge process into the live broadcast platform and broadcast it live.

This result not only did Mu Mu not expect, but also the head chef who initiated the challenge, and the result was that their company paid more attention to it, although they still used the original raw materials, but they selected the best from the raw materials, and they must ensure that their head chef wins.

With such a high level of attention and live broadcasts, they can't afford to lose, and once they lose, the brand image of the entire company will be greatly reduced, and it will even affect the operation of the entire company.

The head chef who challenged him didn't expect to make such a big deal out of it.

As for the other person involved, he was still asleep, unaware that the challenge had attracted so many people's attention.
