When he clearly felt that the camera had moved away from his body, Yuan Zhou relaxed his straight waist slightly without leaving any trace.

What Yuan Zhou cares about this time is not his own image, but that he is the only Chinese chef.

As a rare Chinese chef in the Bocuse d'Or World Culinary Competition, he represents a certain national image.

It is too easy for people to have an impression of individuals representing groups in a country.

For example, Chinese people are good at kung fu, well... combined with Yuan Zhou's previous knife skills, it seems that this cannot be erased.

Originally, with Yuan Zhou's cooking skills and mentality, it was impossible for him to be like this. This is the performance that Yuan Zhou cares about very much.

"It must be kept perfect, let them know that Chinese chefs are monsters." Yuan Zhou muttered silently in his heart.

Appetizers in French home-cooked dishes are mostly salads, soups and meat sauces. In haute cuisine, appetizers are actually the highlight, with endless imagination and creativity, and are rarely repeated in different restaurants.

A variety of seafood is common, and small portions of pasta are also available.

Since the main focus of the competition is within Europe, it can be said that this competition system is not very friendly to Asia or even China. Of course, food knows no borders. Yuan Zhou has always felt that as long as the taste is good enough, there will definitely be no problem.

At this time, the first dish was served by the etiquette ladies. Yuan Zhou named it Bai Yu Wu Xia. Of course, the translation of "perfect jade" after the translator was bald could be understood.

The judges were able to understand the dishes as soon as they saw them. Yuan Zhou specially chose a small light green bowl with an irregular petal-shaped mouth. Inside, a piece of white food like a floating cloud floated quietly in the almost colorless bowl. The soup is mainly white with some red ham sprinkled on top. The color clash makes it look even more flawless.

"It really means something perfect." Adelaide said.

"It is indeed like a jade that is pleasing to the eye." Gauss nodded in agreement.

"Isn't our theme Bresse chicken? What's the point of bringing tofu? Tofu in chicken soup. Isn't this a bit off topic?" Juman Li smiled and quickly found the nitpick.

Although the knife skills were a bit blind just now, it doesn't fit the title, even if it tastes good.

Juman Li sniffed again and smelled the fresh and elegant fragrance.

In my heart, I quite agree with Sexiang.

"You know it doesn't meet the requirements when I say you haven't eaten it yet. I'm telling you, there are many wonderful things about Chinese cuisine that are beyond your imagination. You should really go out and have a look." Although August didn't I know what Yuan Zhou did.

But he firmly believed that Yuan Zhou couldn't make dishes that didn't fit the theme. This was for sure. The main reason was that the old man was so annoying and kept grabbing Yuan Zhou, which affected his ability to taste delicious food.

At this time, Alexandra, who was standing on Juman Li's side, spoke up, "Chef August is right, we can taste it first. If we still don't understand, we can ask the competing chef to explain it himself." .”

Alexandra said that one reason was because they just had different ideas, and the other one was indeed due to Yuan Zhou's amazing knife skills. He felt that a chef with such excellent knife skills could not make such an obvious mistake.

Abby nodded in agreement.

Now Juman Li stopped talking, and in the blink of an eye he became a polished commander. Who knows what it feels like to try.

Because it was a competition, Yuanzhou divided a portion of chickpea pudding into eight portions and put them in eight small bowls, so each judge had one portion in front of him.

It is divided before finalizing, so each portion looks like it is made separately. The shape is natural, angular and irregular, but very natural.

Juman Li picked up the spoon next to him and planned to dig out a spoonful to try. The spoon was used for Western food, with a long handle and a large outline. As soon as it touched the tofu curd, which was as soft as a cloud, a piece was immediately scooped out.

"It's quite tender. It doesn't feel like tofu?" Juman Li was a little confused.

He knew that the tofu was poisoned by August and the others, and he had seen the photos and introductions, but now that he had come into contact with it, and with many years of cooking experience, he always felt that something was wrong.

When it is put into the mouth, as the spoon gets closer and closer, an elegant taste mixed with a little salty fragrance hits the nostrils, which makes people feel appetizing.

As soon as it comes into contact with the mouth, the soft and tender texture immediately fills the mouth. The rich taste of chicken makes people unmistakably believe that this white food is made of chicken.

The mellow and delicious taste is mixed with the unique taste of cured ham, adding a bit of beauty to the fresh and elegant chickpea pudding.

"This is Ardennes ham. It turns out that it can produce such a wonderful taste when paired with Bresse chicken. It's really ingenious." Juman Li sighed silently in his heart.

Then he didn't move slowly, eating spoonful after spoonful very quickly, and finally he picked up the bowl and drank the soup into his mouth.

Compared with the elegance of chickpea pudding, the soup has a slightly richer taste. The soup is transparent and the rich flavor of chicken is concentrated in it. It is mellow and moving, moisturizing without feeling greasy. It is the best among chicken soups.

After drinking the last drop of soup, Juman Li couldn't help but smack his mouth. Then he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, and his body was a little stiff. He was clearly trying to find fault just now, but now... he can't!

Slowly turning his head to look at the other judges, he found that everyone was still immersed in the delicious taste of chickpea pudding. Only Juman Li's eyes actually saw Abby next to him secretly refilling the bowl. He simply couldn't see it. .

"I haven't eaten much Chinese food, so when I suddenly taste it, it must be because it's fresh." Juman Li secretly warned in his heart. He also knew that he hadn't eaten much Chinese food, but he still resisted Chinese food. It's a firm attitude.

But as a hostess came closer, a strange strong fragrance hit him. The closer the distance, the stronger the fragrance. Juman Li put his rhetoric behind him and stared at the plate without blinking.

As for August and others, as long as Juman and Li don't stir up trouble, who has time to bicker? Wouldn't it be delicious to eat two more bites of Yuan Zhou's cooking if they have time?

Although every time a dish is served, Jack will perform his duties as a host and introduce it. Of course, he only introduces the name of the dish and the name of the maker. As for other things, Jack expresses his inability to do so.

The main reason is that introducing the dishes at close range is definitely a kind of torture. If it were not reminded by years of professional ethics, he would definitely want to take a bite.

Now no one paid attention to Jack's nonsense, all eyes were fixed on the big plate that had just been served.

Yes, it is a big plate. As a main dish, the size of this plate fully demonstrates its status. Of course, the most dazzling thing is the chicken that seems to be flying in the middle of the plate.

The legs are crossed, the claws are inserted into the chicken's chamber, and the wings are crossed through the neck and out of the mouth. The whole chicken is lying down, golden in color, with red in the yellow. From a distance, it looks like a duck floating on water, holding feathers in its mouth. The phoenix, which seems to be able to take off at any time, is dormant and waiting.

When Yuan Zhou made Phoenix Yu Fei, he chose the Texas Braised Chicken recipe, which is a classic dish in Shandong cuisine. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best chicken in the world.

Boiled with more than 20 spices, the rich fragrance reminds people of its existence all the time.

Of course, it is impossible to complete the orthodox braised chicken in less than five or six hours, but now that there is a competition, it is impossible to wait for such a long time, and it is impossible to prepare in advance, so Yuanzhou just borrowed some methods of braised chicken. It's not a complete copy, after all, the ingredients themselves are different.

But this cannot conceal the aroma of the chicken itself.
