"Little brother, you have to think clearly." The shopping guide shook his head helplessly, "You can completely use cheaper fish, pork or chicken and duck meat for this kind of project."
"I've thought about it clearly." Qin Lang picked the best one and handed it to the shopping guide, "That's it."
"This one must weigh five or six kilograms." The shopping guide took it and weighed it, "Although the price of oxtail is very cheap, the quality of the cow you chose is not low, so the unit price is more than one hundred per kilogram.
"
He weighed it while talking and quickly quoted the exact price, "812 yuan, little brother, what is the upper limit of the price you can draw?"
"The upper limit is one thousand, which is just enough." Qin Lang nodded with satisfaction, "That's it."
Shopping guide: "???"
This thing is the main ingredient?!
"Help me pack it." Looking at the shopping guide's suspicious expression, Qin Lang smiled helplessly.
"Give me your Yuling Chef badge. After registration, we will send it to the association as quickly as possible." The shopping guide said no more, took Qin Lang's badge and said, "Okay."
After taking the badge, Qin Lang turned around and left, heading towards the next area.
In addition to oxtail, various necessary accessories are naturally indispensable.
"This food bucket project limits the value of the ingredients. The total value of the ingredients from both parties must not exceed one thousand yuan."
"Du Weiwei, the total value of the ingredients is 945 yuan."
When one person and one spirit arrived at the Yuling Chef Association, there was only half an hour left before the food fight started.
Walking out of the food market, Du Weiwei walked right in front of her.
He could understand Qi Xiaoyu coming here to watch the match.
Add a tablespoon of rock sugar and a small amount of water to the pot, then slowly and continuously swirl it in one direction with a spatula.
Ginger, green onions, carrots, mushrooms, celery, star anise, bay leaves, green peppercorns, dried chili peppers, dried hawthorn, various seasonings and the most important oxtail.
"I will." Qin Lang smiled.
"Qin Lang, the total value of the ingredients is 888 yuan."
Qi Xiaoyu: "???"
He had already experienced this process yesterday.
Well, it’s still the familiar chuuni taste.
Just looking at this auspicious number, Qin Lang felt that he would be able to perform stably in his first eating battle.
Eater, let’s begin!
…
It quickly came to Qin Lang's side and started blowing on the ingredients.
The cooking process of oxtail requires the use of tender sugar color, and now is the best time to prepare the tender sugar color.
Unlike the spiritual battle, where the outcome is clear at a glance, the outcome of the eating battle needs to be decided by professional judges after tasting the dishes from both sides.
Look at my freshness!
Taking advantage of Dan Bao's efforts to help, Qin Lang quickly peeled the oxtail and cut it into sections, washed it several times and soaked it in water with white wine.
Dan Bao, who had helped to prepare the ingredients, moved closer to look at it curiously.
"I am Zhou Yun, the main judge of this eating competition." The middle-aged man in the lead looked at the two of them, "The weights of the main judge and the deputy judges are the same, but they have the added responsibility of hosting the eating competition."
"Gulu!"
"Qin Lang! This way!" Qi Xiaoyu waved excitedly.
Fully soaking to remove blood and water can effectively remove fishy smell.
"If you win this food fight, I will make you a delicious caramel pudding tonight." Looking at Dan Bao's greedy look, Qin Lang said with a smile.
These are relatively cheap, even if you choose better quality ones, they won't cost much.
Before she could finish speaking, a dangerous voice suddenly came from behind her.
Qin Lang glanced at Zhao Chen, who was standing next to him with his arms crossed, "Why are you here?"
Outside the kitchen are the judging seats and audience seats.
"Qin Lang, what are the dishes you prepared today?" Qi Xiaoyu came closer and asked, "Can you tell me about it?"
The food fight was about to begin, and the two of them parted quickly without much communication.
While waiting for the blood to soak out, Qin Lang quickly sliced the ginger and green onions into sections and put them in a small bowl for later use, then started the pot.
"The ingredients from both sides of the food bucket have been delivered to their respective kitchens. No other ingredients are allowed to be brought into the kitchen. The total value of the ingredients from both sides is now reported."
The judges are not here at this moment, but there are already people in the audience.
Even though she had a delicious meal yesterday afternoon, Dan Bao's eyes were still full of anticipation at this moment.
"Come to cheer you up." Zhao Chen looked proud, "You can't lose to anyone before you lose to me."
but…
Tender sugar is light in color and slightly sweet, and can serve as both coloring and flavoring.
It's called braised oxtail.
"The ingredients from both parties meet the requirements. According to the regulations of the primary hopper, the total cooking time shall not exceed two hours." Zhou Yun said calmly, "The timer starts."
"Gudu!"
In the center are two competitive standard kitchens covering an area of 100 square meters. The transparency of the outer walls can be adjusted to ensure privacy. Qin Lang and Du Weiwei's nameplates have been hung on the doors.
"Qi! Xiao! Yu!"
The special caramel aroma also emerged from the pot along with this process, and the sweet smell made Dan Bao, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't help but take a sniff.
But the process of boiling the rock sugar into golden brown and the sweetness gradually disappearing still makes it feel very magical.
Qin Lang and Du Weiwei's eating buckets are junior eating buckets, and there will be five junior judges.
Qi Xiaoyu shuddered and looked at Du Weiwei behind with a murderous look on her face, but she still couldn't escape the fate of being pinched.
Ignoring the fight between the two little girls, Qin Lang quickly stood up and took Dan Bao to the kitchen when he noticed the three men and two women sitting at the judging table.
Unlike the spiritual battlefield, the eating battle venue is independent.
After some selection, the total value of the ingredients was 888 yuan.
"Yes." Qin Lang nodded, "Are you going to choose now?"
Qin Lang stepped forward.
"That's right." Du Weiwei paused, "Today's food fight, I will use my full strength, so you'd better use your full strength too."
Qin Lang walked to the counter and began to count the ingredients on the counter.
Du Weiwei also let go of Qi Xiaoyu and stood in front of the kitchen on the other side with her food spirit.
"You...just finished selecting the ingredients?" Du Weiwei blinked and asked tentatively.
Is it a CD if you ponder for two seconds?
"Tell me about it, I know the dishes Weiwei prepared!" Qi Xiaoyu chuckled, "If you tell me what you prepared, I will tell you that she..."
Oxtail has a strong fishy smell, so you must not be careless in removing the fishy smell.
Depending on the size of the hopper, the number and level of reviewers are also different.
Danbao's eyes brightened even more, full of expectation.
Cooked with these ingredients, it is a traditional Shaanxi dish.
"Thank you very much."
At this moment, numbers appeared on the light screen in front of the judging panel and began to count down.
As dense small bubbles bubble up in the pot, the sugar liquid begins to change from thin to viscous, and the water in it is quickly evaporated, leaving only the sugar liquid that becomes darker and darker as time goes by.
Not bad either.
Qin Lang pondered for two seconds, and then said calmly under Qi Xiaoyu's increasingly expectant gaze, "Please stay tuned."
Qin Lang and Du Weiwei turned around and walked into their respective kitchens without hesitation.
