Inferior ingredients are not so easy to find. Fortunately, we have accumulated a lot of experience in finding inferior ingredients before the ancient dispute. We know how to find them and can avoid detours.
What Gu Zheng has to do to accept the challenge is duck blood vermicelli soup. The main ingredients are ducks and vermicelli. The ducks are basically garbage grade, even toxic ingredients. Few poultry can reach low grade, while most of the free range ones are low grade, and a few are garbage, but the inferior ones are difficult to appear. It all depends on luck.
It is not easy for any food material to reach the second grade. The grade of food materials in the fairyland is very strict. Take ducks as an example. As long as ducks in free range have eaten feed, even once, their grade can only be low at most, and can no longer reach the second grade.
Although there is a word "inferior", this is the classification of the fairyland. It has existed well since the last time on earth. It can be seen from the several inferior ingredients found in the ancient struggle. Whether it is ice spring mineral water in the Alps, seaweed salt in Peru, or Fujian will oil, it is basically the best and top-level existence of similar products.
The inferior level of the fairyland is almost equal to the top level of the earth. Therefore, if you want to find such ducks, you can't go to the market or even farms. Instead, you have some hope to go to the mountains or farms.
In addition to ducks, another main ingredient is fans.
Sweet potato powder is the best for fans. The fans in that store are very good. It is a low-grade ingredient. Without the bonus points on fans, Gu Zheng won't even give them 50 points.
Gu Zheng wants to do better than them. Fans should use inferior fans with a higher level than them. It's OK for low-grade fans. After all, sweet potatoes are underground. As long as pesticides do not penetrate into the ground, chemical fertilizer is not used, or the amount of chemical fertilizer is small, low-quality sweet potatoes are still easy to grow.
Low quality sweet potatoes and the same low quality groundwater can cook vermicelli with low ingredients.
But it is difficult for fans to reach the second grade. First, the place where sweet potato is planted cannot use any pesticide and chemical fertilizer. Like ducks, once these raw materials are used, the grade of sweet potato cannot reach the second grade, that is, the highest is the lowest.
There is only one level gap between low and inferior, but it is difficult to cross the past, especially in the current environment.
After Gu Zheng carefully planned, the first ingredient he came out to look for was fans.
To be exact, he is looking for raw materials for making fans. He knows that there is a green base near Hangzhou. However, strictly speaking, it is not a base at all, but a scientific research center to study the excellence and transformation of some crops. The land there does not use any chemical fertilizer or pesticides. Gu Zheng's father has an old friend who works there. He is a deputy director and has a good relationship. Gu Zheng has been there several times before.
After he went out in the morning, he went straight here.
The scale of the base is not large, but the management is very strict. The things here are not sold. If it weren't for the ancient struggle, they can't even enter the door. There are as many as six security guards guarding the gate, surrounded by fences with cables. People who don't know think this is a prison.
It's good to do things. Gu Zheng just wanted to see if there are inferior sweet potatoes here. Even if there are no inferior sweet potatoes here, there must be inferior sweet potatoes. It's OK to take some low-quality sweet potatoes back and promote them to inferior in the wasteland space, but unexpectedly, he was surprised when he came here.
There is a piece of land here. The quality of sweet potatoes planted here has reached second-class. Not only sweet potatoes, but also onions, ginger, pepper and other auxiliary materials have been planted here. All of them are of second-class quality, which means that Gu Zheng has found all the ingredients at once.
This is really a big surprise.
The deputy director met Gu Zheng's father in his early years and had a good relationship. Gu Zheng's father also helped him. Gu Zheng said he just wanted some sweet potatoes, onions and ginger. With a big hand, someone immediately prepared a bag for Gu Zheng. There were twenty or five kilograms of sweet potatoes alone. If Gu Zheng wasn't worried that he couldn't take them, there would be twice as many sweet potatoes.
With sweet potato and other ingredients, a snake skin bag has a full weight of 30 kg. Gu Zheng must be very tired to carry it before. Now with Xianli to improve his physique, it's much easier to carry it.
Twenty five kilos of sweet potatoes look like a lot, and there may not be many fans.
To make sweet potato into vermicelli, we must first turn sweet potato into sweet potato powder. Only four to six kilograms of sweet potato can make one kilogram of sweet potato powder. In order not to affect the quality of sweet potato powder, Gu Zheng does not intend to use machines to beat it and grind it with the original method, so the output will be lower.
One kilogram of sweet potato powder can only cook about 72 fans. In this way, 25 kilos of sweet potato can actually get less than three kilos of fans, which is not much.
Nowadays, there are many cheap sweet potato fans in the market, including six, five, or even two or three. 100% of these low-cost so-called pure sweet potato powder are fake. The cost of pure sweet potato fans is more than these. They are basically made of starch and sold as sweet potato fans.
With so many raw materials, Gu Zheng's heart relaxed a lot. With sweet potato powder and other ingredients, even if he can't find a duck of inferior quality, he can just buy a duck of inferior quality and improve it in the flood and famine space. In this way, he has a full set of inferior ingredients.
With these ingredients, this challenge means that Gu Zheng has been in an invincible position. The gap in ingredients is too large for ordinary cooking to make up, let alone Gu Zheng's own cooking.
Another day has passed, and the topic on the website is becoming more and more popular. The attention has exceeded 100000. It is the topic with the highest attention recently, and may even be the topic with the highest attention of the food channel this year.
The voting gap has gradually widened, and the number of people who support Gu Zheng has decreased. Now only 30% think he can win, and the support of the chef has risen to 70%.
At the beginning, Gu Zheng had such a high support rate because he had more iron powder at that time, but Gu Zheng's iron powder was just those. Later, the attention increased and attracted many readers who didn't know Gu Zheng. Most of these readers supported professional chefs, and no one thought that a non professional could win in cooking.
The attention was so high that even the top management of the website was alarmed. On the third day, that is, the day before the challenge, the top management of the website suddenly decided to track and report the matter in real time, and put the challenge process into the live broadcast platform for live broadcast.
This result not only surprised Mumu, but also the challenge initiator chef. The result is that their company pays more attention to it. Although they still use the original raw materials, they select the best from the raw materials. Be sure to ensure that their chef wins.
With such high attention and live broadcasting, they can't afford to lose. Once they lose, the brand image of the whole company will be greatly reduced, and even affect the operation of the whole company.
The chef who initiated the challenge didn't expect to make things so big.
As for the other party, it will still be sleeping. I don't know that this challenge has attracted so many people's attention.
