Chapter 899 Conquer You with Spicy Food

"Can't it be too spicy? Interesting." Yuan Zhou thought to himself.

Just when the door closed, Yuan Zhou almost had the answer to this question in his mind.

"No wonder Xin Zhao was asked to deliver the message." Yuan Zhou felt a little warm in his heart.

This message from Cao Zhishu was actually sold to Yuan Zhou. Even Zhou Shijie didn't know about this test of the taste of the dishes.

After all, although Zhou Shijie is the president, he is not a competing chef. Only fellow competing chefs know this key tip.

And letting Zhao Xin tell Yuan Zhou this skill should also be a way for Cao Zhishu to make up for Yuan Zhou.

"These people really spare no effort to promote Sichuan cuisine." Yuan Zhou sighed.

Yes, the reason why the participating dishes should not be too spicy is to promote Sichuan cuisine. After all, the spicy flavor belongs to the taste of Shu people.

But people from other provinces cannot eat such a spicy taste. For the sake of promotion, the spicy flavor must be what those people want to sacrifice.

"I'm afraid Sichuan food without spicy food is not Sichuan food." Yuan Zhou said.

"It's a good theme to adapt to the spicy taste of people from other provinces." Yuan Zhou had an idea in his mind.

He had to make authentic Sichuan cuisine to participate in this competition, and of course he had to win, after all, it was related to his reward.

It cannot be said that Yuan Zhou is not conservative, he now has this confidence.

"The tasks have been very heavy recently, so I lost an hour of sleep at night." Yuanzhou decided to go upstairs and read a book, and first studied Three Fragrances and Released the Sea. The agreed time of seventy-two hours was really not much.

When it was time to close the door and go upstairs, Yuan Zhou washed his hands and adjusted his work and rest time. He didn't mind the trouble and put on a mask and gloves. Yuan Zhou didn't know whether breathing would affect the ancient books, but it would be better to do one more thing. That's right.

"Song Zazu" is not thick. Even if he read it sentence by sentence, Yuan Zhou read it for about fifteen minutes before he saw the introduction about Three Fragrances Released into the Sea.

Some of the writing has been blurred by time and cannot be seen clearly, but as far as it can be seen clearly, it only records that someone made this dish. It tastes both sweet, salty and sour, and the taste is very unique and harmonious.

It is similar to what President Zhou said before, "Goodness, three beans are all fragrant, like the sea." There is no real (xìng) help. From ancient books, it can only be proved that Yuan Zhou’s previous speculation was correct. The three flavors of Sanxiang Fanghai are sweet, salty and sour.

"It is said in the book that this is Yang's specialty dish. Yang's specific details cannot be verified now, but the specialty dish means that it is not only successful, but also good at it." Yuan Zhou frowned and thought.

After reading the book, Yuanzhou carefully closed the lid of the box and then took off his mask.

"President Zhou told me that besides him, many famous chefs have studied it. Since the predecessors can succeed, then I should have no problem." Yuanzhou thought to himself.

"The demonstration store selection will be held in one week, and the three fragrances will be released to the sea in two days. Time is tight." Thinking that time is so tight, Yuanzhou decided to go to the toilet to find inspiration.

"I heard it's easier to find inspiration in the bathroom." Yuan Zhou took a change of clothes and walked into the bathroom.

After washing up for a while, Yuanzhou already had a preliminary idea about releasing three incense into the sea.

"It feels a lot easier to take a shower." Yuan Zhou thought to himself, "Just submit the menu."

Yuanzhou sat down at the desk in his pajamas and turned on the computer. The submission menu he was talking about was the competition in the demonstration store.

This competition has a rule, which is that the menu needs to be submitted in advance. It seems that such a serious official competition will not say that the chef can cook whatever he wants, so there must be certain rules.

When Yuan Zhou knew this rule, he prepared to submit on the last day. There were so many dishes he was good at, so it was quite difficult for him to choose what to compete in.

But after Cao Zhishu's reminder today, Yuanzhou instantly had an idea.

"Just the simplest dish of one meat, one vegetable and one cold dish. No need to think about strategies." Yuan Zhou thought to himself.

Yes, this competition only requires cooking three dishes, so how to arrange it is also a chef's strategy.

For example, a meat dish, a vegetable dish, a soup, a meat dish, a vegetable dish, and a cold dish, or a different snack, etc. There must always be the best combination.

Yuanzhou opened the webpage and directly filled in the three dishes of saliva chicken, mapo tofu, and boiled meat slices in his receipt information.

These three dishes are simply representatives of spicy food. Among them, the two dishes of saliva chicken and boiled meat slices are the representative dishes of Chongqing Sichuan cuisine.

The Chongqing style Sichuan cuisine pays attention to the extreme taste, and the dishes are all very spicy. There is a saying there that vegetables are the third part of the grain, and peppers are the clothes.

And the name of the saliva chicken comes from its spicy taste that can numb the mouth to the point of involuntarily drooling. You can imagine how spicy these dishes are.

He just wanted to use the spiciest dish and conquer the judges with spicy food, and Yuan Zhou also wanted the judges to know that if a thing loses its own characteristics for the sake of promotion, it is not far away from mediocrity.

Yuan Zhou submitted the completed form directly, and then read other books for ten minutes before falling asleep peacefully.

After a good night's sleep, Yuanzhou went to bed an hour late, but still got up at the usual time to start exercising and start a new day of business.

On a new day, Zhao Xin went to Shulou early in the morning and started working.

When Cao Zhishu came to the store, Zhao Xin consciously went to his office and began to report what happened last night.

"Knock, knock," Xin Zhao knocked on the door.

"Come in." Cao Zhishu sat on the chair and looked through some lists of materials.

"Chef." Xin Zhao doesn't dare to call him master now because he has been scolded too much recently.

"How is the situation?" Cao Zhishu raised his head and looked at Zhao Xin and asked.

Xin Zhao lowered his head and looked at the ground, not daring to look at Cao Zhishu. After all, he could only see disappointment on his master's face recently, so naturally he did not dare to look up.

"Raise your head and speak." Cao Zhishu's stern voice came from the front.

"Yes, master." Zhao Xin subconsciously raised his head.

"Say it." Cao Zhishu nodded with satisfaction after seeing that Zhao Xin was not so sad.

"Master, after I apologized last night, I told Chef Yuan the key points you said." Zhao Xin reported seriously.

"Well, what did he say?" Cao Zhishu said.

"Chef Yuan didn't have a special expression, and he didn't say anything." Zhao Xin thought about it carefully and then said.

"Did you come back directly?" Cao Zhishu asked.

"Yes." Xin Zhao nodded.

"Interesting, it seems that he understands the meaning of this prompt and does not need this prompt." Cao Zhishu touched his bald head.

"Master?" Zhao Xin was a little confused.

"Chef Yuan should be able to cook spicy dishes." Cao Zhishu said with certainty.

"Why?" Xin Zhao really didn't understand this time.

Even he understood what those judges meant. It was impossible for Yuan Zhou not to understand. Since he understood and still did it, could he be so confident in his craft? Xin Zhao couldn't help but think to himself.

"See if he has submitted the menu." Cao Zhishu did not answer this question, but slid the mouse and started to look at the internal webpage of the competition.

"It's actually saliva chicken, boiled meat slices and mapo tofu." Now Cao Zhishu confirmed Yuan Zhou's idea, he really wanted to make spicy food.

It is not difficult to guess that in past competitions, some people also tried to conquer the judges with spicy food, but of course they failed.

Not because it doesn’t taste good, but because it doesn’t fit.

This is: You are very good, but I don't (love) you. The result is that the judges are very impressed and then rejected.
