In Hirohiko Omoto's thoughts, Zhou Yi began to fry the lotus root. He used filtered olive oil, which had a light taste. There seemed to be no special difference in the method of frying the lotus root, at least in the eyes of a layman, Yamamoto Twenty-Two

I even feel that Zhou Yi's techniques are not as good as my old mother's.

But in the eyes of experts such as Da Ben Boyan and He Wenxiu, it was completely different. Yuan Xing was as excited as a monkey, jumping around and excited.

People often find it puzzling that the same ingredients, the same oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, the same kitchen utensils, but the dishes cooked by different people have different tastes. With the help of national expert chefs, even the simplest dishes can be delicious on people's tongues.

If Bangchui, who doesn't know how to cook, comes, even if you give him the best ingredients, it will be a waste.

This is the realm. The martial arts say, "There is a sword in the hand, but there is no sword in the heart." Because the sword is already a human, and the human sword is in harmony, and the fire of the sword is higher than that of the human, you can be named Soul Chaser and become a top master. How about the chef?

Isn't this the truth? With Zhou Yi's current ability to control fire, pot, and spoon, he has already reached the level of combining a man and a pot. He seems to be stir-frying casually, and there are no new tricks similar to 'juggling', but he can

Let each piece of lotus root be heated evenly. After a while, a unique fragrance of northern Jiangsu white lotus root will fill the air. It is a bit like the smell of cooked 'water chestnut', but it is a little sticky and glutinous.

The feeling of disconnection.

The lotus root slices are about to start to emerge!

The most difficult part when frying lotus root is that the lotus root slices will exude a lot of starch after being heated, and it will easily stick to the pan. Most chefs will add water or use broth to dissolve the lotus root, but adding water will easily lose the original flavor of the lotus root. Adding broth will also cover the lotus root.

The flavor of pressed lotus root is overwhelming. Therefore, lotus root is the most difficult type of vegetables to stir-fry.

But just when the starch in the lotus root slices was about to come out, Zhou Yi's left hand holding the pot shook slightly, and dozens of lotus root slices were shaken up one after another, turned over neatly in the air, and then fell back into the pot.

.

"Zhen Zi Jue!"

A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door. He Wenxiu, Yuan Xuan and Da Ben Boyan are all experts among experts. How could they not know the difficulty of Zhou Yi's move? They were dumbfounded.

A second-level cook knows how to shake the pot and start cooking. Even the lady selling fried noodles on the street can occasionally show off her skills, but most of them are just laborious tasks. The purpose is to attract attention and show how awesome her cooking skills are.

Than. There are only a few people who can truly understand the essence of it.

Shaking the pot depends on the fire, the dishes, and the people. What is the firepower when shaking the pot, how cooked the dishes are, what are the characteristics of the dishes? What is the taste of the diners? All these must be understood one by one before they can be used calmly. In the final analysis

, it is also a concentrated expression of the skill of controlling the fire and the pot. He Wenxiu and the others believed that they had mastered this skill to a certain extent, but they also used the pot shaking technique when frying the lotus root slices, which was a bit surprising.

Lotus root slices are sticky, so if you don't add water and soup in advance, you have to shake the pot to start the dish. The result will be that some lotus root slices fly up, some stick to the pot, and the last plate of lotus root slices is burnt, yellow, tender, and tender.

Can this still be eaten? Moreover, looking at Zhouyi's method, it is obvious that it is not to 'stir-fry burnt lotus roots' but to make a plate of stir-fried tender lotus roots, which is even more difficult.

Although the cooking skills of the three cooking masters and the onlookers were not as good as Zhou Yi, they still had good eyesight. They were shocked when they saw the lotus root slices flying up in the pot at the same time; when they saw the lotus root slices flying in the air again, they never stuck together.

, and each piece miraculously turned over and fell back into the pot, which was another surprise; after the eyes fell with the lotus root slices, I was even more surprised to see that the pot was as bright as a mirror!

Zhou Yi's technique of shaking the pot to start cooking is not only beautiful, but the most wonderful thing is that he has an excellent timing of shaking the pot. It is at the moment when the lotus root slices are about to come out of the starch. At this time, the starch in the lotus root slices has been forced out by the fire. But it is still there.

There is no real leakage. If you shake the lotus root slices at this time, it will not destroy the perfect flavor of the lotus root slices, but it will never cause sticking to the pan.

"Tsk...pah pah pah pah pah -"

This is not a romantic action blockbuster from an island country, but the lotus root slices falling into the pot, and there is a dense and low-pitched sound. Zhou Yi's technique is extremely fast. At the moment the lotus root slices fall back, he quickly pours a layer of oil into the pot and takes a sip.

Red wine, spray into the pot!

At this moment, the pot is extremely hot, and the oil will be cooked as soon as the oil falls. A mouthful of red wine is sprayed into the pot, and it immediately turns into bursts of wine smoke. When it falls back, dozens of white lotus roots pass through the wine mist, and the tender white lotus root slices are as white as jade.

A wisp of bright red suddenly appeared. This is because the heat of the lotus root slices is still there, and the starch that was about to seep out cannot fully seep out due to the sudden shock of the lotus root slices. It stays on the surface and adheres to the wine as soon as it comes into contact with the wine mist.

color.

After the lotus root slices fell into the pot, the frying spoon in Zhou Yi's right hand fell like raindrops. It was not a stir-fry, but a careful pick. In the blink of an eye, he used the fist-sized frying spoon to turn each lotus root three times, just like a soldier on the battlefield.

, the general is alone. In the eyes of He Wenxiu and the others, this is simply a superb cooking technique that has transcended the world. Hirohiko Omoto shivered in an intelligent manner, and couldn't help but shout: "Iwata monk!"

What chefs pay attention to when cooking is to make the ingredients heat evenly, but how can it be easy to stir-fry every piece and every piece of ingredients evenly? This is simply the ultimate expression of stir-frying skills and is the dream of all chefs. In Daben

In Boyan's memory, he has been seeking Taoism for many years and has met countless masters of cooking skills. Monk Iwata of Beihai Temple showed his skill. Moreover, this monk showed his skill once and refused to show it again. No matter how hard he begged, he would not teach him.

, all he said was that he didn’t have the talent and forced practice would be harmful to his cooking skills.

He is a person who refuses to give up easily, so he guessed that there must be some kind of secret in it. It's just that Monk Iwata cherishes his skills and refuses to teach them. Unexpectedly, when he came to France to try his luck this time, he actually met this magical man.

The Chinese God of Cooking... Hirohiko Omoto looked at Zhouyi, then at Yamamoto Twenty-Two, and made up his mind.

Zhou Yi started cooking. When a plate of fried lotus root slices with a faint aroma of wine was placed in front of everyone, Hirohiko Omoto swallowed and spit. If the three judges hadn't moved yet, he would have rushed over...

...

“Oh, it’s so delicious!”

The three judges had long been dumbfounded. Before Zhou Yi could make an introduction, Stephen, Phillip and Tang De held out their forks at the same time as if they had agreed.

When the lotus root slices enter the mouth, there is first a faint aroma of red wine. This seems to be no longer the bad taste of the third-level regional table wine. The addition of lotus root aroma actually improves the quality of the low-quality third-level red wine, making it more mellow and soft.

This surprise made the three of them couldn't help but chew the lotus root slices... Wow, my holy mother, my God! How crispy it feels? The three of them even heard a slight clicking sound from their mouths.

, that kind of wonderful enjoyment that comes from the mouth is completely separated from the limitations of the ingredients themselves. At this moment, no matter how precious the food is, it seems that it is not as tempting as this piece of lotus root. The most terrible thing is that after the crispy and refreshing feeling, the taste oozing out from the lotus root slices

A smell of glutinous fragrance... The starch contained in the lotus root has been ripe and has not been lost at all. It suddenly exploded. It made the three of them feel like they suddenly drank a glass of ice in the thirsty desert.

The feeling of water chestnut soup, moisturizes the lungs, heart and eyes...

The three judges looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all moved to tears. It’s too much...it’s so unreasonable! Why can these lotus root slices be so delicious? I can’t stand it, I’m going to die. La ah ah......

Omoto Hiroyuki couldn't bear it any longer and rushed forward. First he tried to be restrained and tasted a piece of it elegantly, and then his eyes shone and he turned into a rice pail. He Wenxiu and Yuan Xuan were not much better. This guy was using chopsticks, which were much more reliable than a fork. He just used chopsticks in one hand and performed a chopstick trick...

A tall figure passed by the crowd. The onlookers were already angry, but when they saw this man's appearance, they immediately stopped saying anything and started whispering: "Lord Gauge of Mouton Manor is also here? Idle Manor Manor I’m really going to be famous this time…”

"Lord Gog?"

Both Stephen and Phillip were a little surprised. Gao Ge, who had grabbed a piece of lotus root, sighed deeply. He looked at Zhou Yi meaningfully, and then smiled at the two of them: "Haha, the two judges don't need to greet me, you haven't done it yet." Let’s taste the wine from Xianren Manor...”

Still need to taste it?

As soon as the third-grade inferior red wine from Xianren Manor was tasted, the three judges knew Zhou Yi's intentions.

The wine is not good wine, and the food is not high-quality ingredients, but when the two are paired together, the ordinary third-level red wine is completely transformed. The lotus root slices carefully fried by Zhou Yi have this magical effect, perfecting wine and food. When combined with the ground, it is extremely harmonious.

"I've already guessed how the three of you will score..."

Gaoge smiled and nodded at Zhou Yi: "Young man is amazing. I will wait for your challenge in the castle. Do you have to work hard?" After saying that, he turned and left, pretending to be infinite.

"This is the perfect combination of wine and food, and it meets the requirements of the competition."

Stephen sighed, seeming to still be recalling the excitement just now.

"Yes, and Xianren Manor uses the most common wine and the most common ingredients, which is even more difficult. I suddenly felt that the third-grade red wine is also good..." Philip also sighed.

"I give it ten points, I have nothing to say!" Tang De was the happiest. He was the most excited one. He thought he would never be able to enjoy fine wine again after going bankrupt, because real top fine wines are very expensive; but Zhouyi allowed him to see the light of day. , it turns out that you can drink wine like this...

"very!"

"very!"

"No, no...that's not fair!"

Yamamoto Twenty-two stood stunned for a long time. When he heard that the three judges all gave ten points to Xianren Manor, he went crazy.

Is there any justice in this? For this challenge, in order to gain the upper hand in the early stages of the game, he prepared for a long time, even bringing out the two great talents of sumo wrestlers and female athletes, but in the end he still lost? Yamamoto really wanted to be there on the spot I committed suicide by caesarean section because I was a little afraid of the pain.

"thump!"

Omoto Hirohiko sprinkled a pinch of salt on his wounds again and actually knelt in front of Zhou Yi in public: "We lost. Master Zhou Yi, please accept Omoto as your student. I will respect you like a father all my life." of......"

"Daben, you...you..."

Yamamoto Twenty-Two's vision went dark, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out.

Can't live anymore.
