Chapter 991 Who Is Not a Baby Yet?

As soon as the name of the dish was announced, the onlookers started discussing it, and even the judges started talking.

"President Zhou, this little Yuan is really confident." Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and said to Zhou Shijie beside him.

"You really don't need to worry too much about this." Zhou Shijie said naturally.

"Hahaha, Lao Bai is not a chef who doesn't understand how awesome Boss Xiao Yuan is, but I know very well. I'm afraid this dish was specially chosen this way." Wang Xiang said with a smile.

What Wang Xiang said is indeed true, because Yuan Zhou is now very famous in the chef community in Sichuan Province, and everyone knows it. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the signature of Sichuan cuisine.

Yes, as soon as the name of this dish came out, no one else had noticed it yet, but the four judges were all veterans in the culinary world, so they immediately saw the clues. The menu is exactly the same. Of course, Bai Xiaoxiao also knew it from the beginning. After all, he prepared the ingredients.

"Indeed, Assistant Zhong said that the dishes are all the same. Boss Bai should know this." The person who said this was Zhang Yan, who had just finished announcing the start and sat down.

"Yes, two identical ingredients, the big crabs are twins born from the same crab mother." Bai Xiaoxiao said humorously.

Bai Xiaoxiao's meaning was obvious. He was telling the judges present that his ingredients were prepared fairly.

"Yeah." Zhou Shijie didn't say much, just nodded.

"It's strange that Boss Xiao Yuan agreed to come to compete with me. Not to mention the same ingredients, it is probably in vain to ask those few to get first-grade ingredients." Wang Xiang looked at Chef Li and said.

"Xiao Yuan is a chef who is responsible for his diners." Zhou Shijie said lightly.

As soon as Zhou Shijie said this, Zhang Yan just snorted and said nothing. He was obviously dissatisfied with Chef Li's dirty behavior at the beginning, but he didn't say anything during the competition.

Bai Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiang looked at each other and didn't ask any more questions. They just thought that they would have to inquire after the game.

After all, Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan were obviously dissatisfied with the people in the Seafood Alliance over there.

On the other side, at the twenty-eight seafood cooking stations, Chef Li stared at the seven dishes belonging to Yuan Zhou and murmured to himself: "Red pepper shrimp Lin doesn't know what kind of shrimp it is, but there seems to be a lot of overlap in the ingredients, and there are also some Sea crabs, but also squid and conch.”

In addition, they were unable to determine the species of shellfish and fish Yuanzhou chose, so this group of people were kept in the dark.

It has to be said that they are really big-hearted. It is said that if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger. However, before they started, they never thought of checking what Yuanzhou was cooking.

This is really a big deal.

Of course, they are not in a hurry and have to support themselves, and they still feel the same way.

"This Yuanzhou is really too trustworthy. He dares to overlap three kinds of ingredients." Ao Pi said next to him.

You must know that the seven dishes they selected are the best among the best among the twenty-eight chefs.

"Isn't it better? This way, we can defeat the famous Boss Yuan more directly." Chef Li raised his eyebrows.

While several people were discussing Yuan Zhou's boldness, Yuan Zhou's side had already begun.

Yuanzhou has already started processing the ingredients. The cooking time only lasts for two hours. He is alone. Although he has plenty of time, he cannot waste it.

After all, if you finish it early, you can rest and prepare ingredients for dinner.

Let's start with the squid and small yellow croaker. Yuan Zhou said that to make Chef Li and others lose to the point of doubting their lives, he had to use exactly the same dishes for the competition.

The reason why the names are different is due to Zhong Lili. According to her, two identical dishes do not look good in the competition field, so they changed a few names.

Zhong Lili is Li Shizhen's skin.

Chef Li from Red Fang is very skilled.

The first thing we cooked was rolling crab balls. This was the specialty of one of the chefs named Zuo, so he and his second chef served it first, while another chef next to him was preparing to soak the conches.

The others were recharging their energy, but Yuan Zhou had to do all the processing of materials himself, so Yuan Zhou couldn't stop. After soaking the conches in tea oil, he started processing the shrimps.

Red pepper shrimps, also known as spicy shrimps. To be honest, spicy shrimps are delicious but difficult to absorb. The shrimp shells have a strong flavor on the outside, but after peeling away the shrimp shells, there may only be a little flavor inside. .

Not to mention Sichuan Province, even though it is a coastal city with long-term experience in cooking seafood, it has not completely solved the problem of the taste of Pipi shrimp.

Basically, the flavor is poured outside the shrimp shell, so you can take it with you a little bit when you eat it.

But Yuanzhou has a solution. Without a system, it is not said that it can be solved 100%, but 70% or 80% is no problem.

Of course, the specific effect still depends on Yuan Zhou's on-site operations. It's time to show a wave of high-end operations.

"Swish, swish, swish", there was a slight sound of water. This was Yuan Zhou picking up each Pipi shrimp and starting to clean it with a soft brush.

After cleaning, the Pippi shrimps no longer showed their teeth and claws at the beginning, as if they had been massaged. The Pippi shrimps looked very leisurely and lazy, with their green and transparent claws stretched out.

A layman can tell the difference by looking at it like this. After all, the Pipi shrimps on the other side that were also treated are not as gentle. They are crawling around in the basket, making a lot of noise.

While the red and blue sides were cooking fiercely, there were also reporters gathered around at the evaluation stage for interviews.

"President Zhang and President Zhou, what do you think of this competition?" This was asked by a reporter who came to interview after seeing the busy work over there.

"This challenge is very good. It fully proves that we Chinese chefs do not recognize authority, but only value taste. It is a very good friendship discussion." Zhou Shijie said.

"So what do you think about the twenty-eight companies who are dissatisfied with the winner of this demonstration store and allude to injustice?" The reporter usually doesn't take it too seriously to watch the excitement and asked more straightforwardly.

"We selected the demonstration stores based on various factors such as environment and taste. I think it is very fair and just. It is rare for chefs to have different opinions." Zhang Yan said with a serious face.

The first words were said by Zhou Shijie, and the second words were said by Zhang Yan. In fact, from these two words, we can see why one is the president of the Chinese Kitchen Federation and the other is just the president of the Sichuan Cuisine Federation.

"So what do Mr. Bai think of this competition?" the reporter continued to ask.

"First of all, I have been famous for the small shop on Taoxi Road for a long time, but I have been busy away from home and have no time to eat. I am very happy to finally take this opportunity to eat today." Bai Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Wang Xiang didn't interrupt. He didn't like talking in front of reporters. Moreover, among the dishes submitted by the red and blue sides today, his favorite Australian crayfish was not included. He was still a little unhappy.

"If you ask me to judge and you don't do what I'm good at, you're still a baby." This is what Wang Xiang is thinking in his mind right now.
