In the judges' seat, after Du Yingchun saw the scene, he was silent for a long time before speaking out: "The content of this competition is very creative. First, it uses the established dishes to give certain reminders to the contestants, but at the same time, it also eliminates the two most common dishes.

, a selection of dishes that are not too difficult to cook.”

"In terms of the arrangement of ingredients, whether it is shredded chicken noodles or cold dry tofu, there are great limitations in the selection of ingredients and the use of seasonings!"

"This requires contestants to use all ingredients and seasonings to complete the cooking requirements, while also taking into account the taste of the dishes, the final presentation effect, and creativity."

After saying that, he turned to look at the other judge beside him: "Master Liang, what do you think?"

After everyone understood the content of the first game, their faces looked solemn.

Liang Jue is 68 years old and has retired long ago, but he is still considered a legend in the industry.

Du Yingchun had the opportunity to sit next to Liang Jue entirely because of Liu Yongping, who represented Fuchengchun Hotel at this time.

Liang Jue nodded: "It is true that this year's competition has increased the difficulty in content, but this is actually a trend. A simple cooking competition has been changed into a comparison between cuisines. Although it has increased the difficulty, it is more effective.

Examining the personal cooking abilities of the contestants can also avoid the situation where some chefs get high scores due to coincidence during the competition."

"However, this competition is very challenging. The ingredients are very simple and the seasonings are also limited. How to choose the dishes to cook and the demonstration of the cooking techniques are very important!"

As he was talking, someone next to him suddenly said: "Hey! This contestant's performance is very good! Although I can't see the choice of dishes he wants to cook yet, his knife skills are very experienced, no matter how he cuts the knife.

The choice of angles is also very exquisite!”

Hearing this, Liang Jue also watched the video carefully and echoed: "Indeed, the knife skills are very skilled. Just looking at the preparation of the dishes, you can tell that the cooking skills must be very good!"

The host immediately said at the right time: "Oh? Let's take a look at who the contestant on the screen is? Oh, it turns out to be Wang Zhonghua from Zangyaxuan, who was ranked 9th in last year's finals and is a very promising contestant.

"

The audience was immediately in an uproar. It turned out to be a contestant who had participated in the competition and had achieved very good results.

No wonder he can produce such exquisite knife skills.

The video screen stayed in front of the kitchen table where Wang Zhonghua was cooking for a while, and soon the screen changed to another contestant's operation.

Du Yingchun laughed when he saw it: "This contestant's idea coincides with mine. What he cooks is to remove the bones from the chicken legs and stew them directly. Although the taste is guaranteed, the overall cooking effect is not very good.

Outstanding."

"There are many ways to cook chicken legs. The current method of removing the bones and then cooking them with a knife is actually very good. It can also show off your basic cooking skills. It's a great idea."

Listening to Du Yingchun's comments, others also looked at the host curiously, looking forward to the information about this contestant.

The host took over the conversation just right and said with a smile: "Teacher Du's vision is still very accurate. This contestant is Gu Chi from Nanhu Xingjia Kitchen. He is a very strong contestant. He won the award last year.

A great result of 6th place!”

When the name was mentioned, many people present suddenly realized that it was him!

That long-skinned Gu Chi is very good at stir-fried cuisine!

Just when everyone was talking about it, the picture on the big screen turned and I saw a contestant tying a thousand knots very quickly!

His method of operation is very unique. Thousands of pieces are cut into small pieces and then tied into very small and exquisite knots.

Immediately, the host was dumbfounded: "This contestant did not handle the chicken legs first, but directly processed the chicken legs into small pieces and knotted them. This thousand-piece knot is very small. It is easy to make a knot if you are not careful when cooking.

Spread out! It looks beautiful, but it’s a test of your cooking skills! Isn’t it a bit risky to cook?”

Several experts suddenly frowned.

You should know that Qianzhang is not like other ingredients, it is very soft in nature, and it is fragile and easy to break when cooking.

After stewing, it will easily become soft and rotten, resulting in deformation and breakage.

Therefore, when making thousands of knots, they are deliberately folded thicker and the knots are larger, so they are more resistant to stewing and less likely to break.

At this time, Liang Jue suddenly said: "No! Look carefully at his operation!"

The photographer quickly and skillfully zoomed in on the camera to get a closer look at the players' operations.

Liang Jue said: "Look! When he was tying Qianzhang, he tapped it with a spoon during the process, and there was obviously a pressing action when tying the knot. If he guessed correctly, he had boiled the syrup in advance, and when tying the knot,

Use syrup to stick the knots together, which can prevent the knots from falling apart during cooking."

"Moreover, this kind of cooking operation itself is very difficult, but I have to say that his risk is worth it. At least it left a deep impression on me!"

Du Yingchun also nodded: "Indeed, this player's operation techniques are very exquisite and very fast, and his movements of sticking syrup are very skillful and precise! It's amazing! Look at the angle of each filling and the way he presses.

The method is exactly the same, and the size and shape of the thousand knots are exactly the same. I estimate that when the cooking is completed, these thousand knots should also have the effect of serving as a plate."

Everyone looked at the pair of dexterous knotting hands in the picture, and one thousand delicate knots were placed on the food tray one after another.

The screen never rotates because everyone has the same feeling. Such steady-paced operation movements are very comfortable to watch. As you complete the movements one after another, you feel more and more beautiful and the work is particularly meticulous!

Du Yingchun suddenly asked curiously: "Who is this player? I suddenly feel that my knotting operation is not necessarily faster than his, and my technique is exquisite!"

Knotting is not a common operation in kitchen cooking. Because there are few opportunities to do it, few people practice it as a personal skill.

Liang Jue also smiled when he heard this: "Indeed, why do I seem to be addicted to watching it? This rhythm is a kind of enjoyment to watch!"

Someone next to me answered: "As the saying goes, this operation is completely good news for obsessive-compulsive disorder!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone laughed softly.

The host said at the right time: "Seeing that everyone is very curious about this contestant, I will reveal the answer to everyone now! This contestant is the runner-up winner of our cooking competition last year, the chef from Laoweige, He Jie

!”

There was a sudden discussion in the audience.

Everyone at the judges' table couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out to be He Jie! No wonder!"

The host said: "It seems that He Jie's cooking skills are still very stable this year! He is also the favorite to win this competition! However, although Chef He's cooking operations are very exciting, we should also switch the camera. Below

, let’s see how other players perform!”

The screen jumped, and a clean kitchen table appeared in front of everyone's sight.

Everyone was stunned when they saw what was happening on the screen clearly!

Not only the host, who was speechless, but also the expert judges and the audience were all looking at the scene in front of them in shock.

After a while, the host was dumbfounded: "Is this chicken soup?"

Du Yingchun swallowed subconsciously: "I guess so?"

One of the judges in the back row coughed lightly: "Perhaps we thought wrong. Here, use a chicken leg to make chicken soup?"

All the audience looked at the big screen blankly.

I saw a casserole on the stove, simmering slowly, and other ingredients were placed on the kitchen table, whether it was hand-rolled noodles, dried tofu and carrots, they looked the same when I brought them over and they still look the same now.

The contestants were leaning in front of the kitchen counter with a calm expression.

He neither planned to use this time to prepare food, nor looked at the camera to try to make his presence felt.

Even though I was just standing quietly, I didn't feel cramped at all.

In this state, he is clearly waiting to make soup.

But can you make soup with only one chicken leg?

So what can you do with the used chicken thighs after making soup?

Suddenly, the audience started talking.

Even the host and expert judges stopped explaining at this time. Looking at the video in front of them, they were at a loss for topics.

What to say?

This player’s operation is a bit confusing!

The host was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was still hosting, so he coughed quickly and said, "Well, Chef Liang, look at this contestant, what's going on?"

Liang Jue took a careful look at the situation on the kitchen table and said nonchalantly: "They should be making chicken soup. Maybe the contestants want to make dishes like chicken soup and dried tofu. Although there is only one chicken leg, there is no need to cook it."

If you use a lot of chicken soup, it’s not impossible.”

In front of the camera, Liang Jue swallowed the real complaints in his heart.

Of course you can make chicken soup if you want. The question is, which normal person would choose to make chicken soup when there is only one chicken leg as an ingredient?

And the competition is still in progress. You must know that the faster the cooking is completed, the better it will be.

After all, there are so many contestants at the scene, and it is easy for the expert judges to become fatigued.

The contestants made such a choice, which shows that they have little experience in competitions or have unique skills in making soup, so they took the risk.

Although I was curious about this player, the scene in front of me was completely static, and there was really nothing worth stopping at. The host decisively introduced: "Come on, let's take a look at this player's information.

Oh, it turns out to be the chef of Bei'an Maxima Hotel, Fu Yu."

"He is a player participating in the competition for the first time this year. I hope he can achieve good results!"

As soon as the camera turned, the cooking scenes of other contestants soon began to play again.

After listening to the host's introduction, the other expert judges quickly put this episode behind them and began to focus on the cooking operations of other contestants.

Liang Jue was convinced. No wonder, it was his first time participating in the competition and he had no experience.

Du Yingchun had a surprised expression on his face. The player just now turned out to be Fu Yu?
