Chapter 1454 - The Eight Immortals cross the sea, each showing their magical powers

“Chairman Zhou has already prepared the venue. Let’s head over directly.” Yuan Zhou stood up first and then said.

“Alright, I’ll listen to head chef Yuan.” Qiu Ji also stood up and said. It looked like he was going to show off his skills.

With someone chiming in, the rest of the people naturally stood up.

“Ta ta ta”. Yuan Zhou and Zhou Shijie walked in front while Zhong Lili followed from the side. The people behind them naturally formed two lines and followed them upstairs.

Since there were many people and they were on the seventh floor, they took the elevator and went up the stairs.

As the headquarters of the chef’s Association, there were naturally many kitchens for practice. The seventh floor was a relatively large kitchen, and fresh ingredients were often prepared for the chefs to use.

Moreover, because it was the headquarters, as long as the ingredients were not particularly precious, they were prepared.

The stoves faced each other in pairs. There were four stoves in a row, which was exactly eight.

As soon as Yuan Zhou entered the restaurant, he directly went to the place where the ingredients were stored and checked them. Then, he turned around and said,””The ingredients are basically complete. You can make some dishes according to the ingredients here. Of course, if you can make the dishes that you made on the day of the exchange, it would be the best.”

After saying that, Yuan Zhou and Zhou Shijie directly went to the judges ‘seats at the side.

The judge’s seat was right in front of the big room. Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou were sitting on it, making it look like a classroom. This made the chefs, who had been famous for a long time, feel like they were back in the classroom.

“The time limit is one hour.” Yuan Zhou raised his head to check the time and then said directly.

“No problem,” he said. Qiu Ji and Cui Hang answered in unison.

The two of them were worthy of being the Twin Stars of cooking. They had some tacit understanding. They looked at each other and answered in unison.

The pastry chef at the side also nodded, and then directly began to knead the dough and make it.

The Sichuan chef at the side was naturally more cooperative. Li Yu directly said,””I’ll have to trouble head chef Yuan to give me some pointers later.”

Yuan Zhou nodded his head. Then, Li Yan grinned and also started to work.

Because these eight chefs didn’t bring any assistant chefs, they did everything by themselves. Moreover, the time was short, only an hour. They gathered around the ingredients and quickly selected the ingredients, then directly began to cook.

On the stand, Zhou Shijie turned his head and looked at Yuan Zhou smilingly,””What do you think? the view here is pretty good, right?”

“Not bad.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“I told you that you could participate in some voting activities. It’s not bad to sit here and watch them cook.” Zhou Shijie said.

“I’m still far from that. I still have to work harder. ” Yuan Zhou shook his head and said.

“You’re just too uptight. You’re still young, you have a lot of time.” Zhou Shijie advised.

“No, now is a good time. Naturally, I should learn more.” Yuan Zhou shook his head solemnly.

“Anyway, don’t damage your body. I’m still waiting for you to take over the burden.” Zhou Shijie stroked his goatee and said with a smile.

“I don’t think I can do it. I prefer to open a shop.” When Yuan Zhou talked about opening the restaurant, he thought of those customers and revealed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

“It’s fine. These old bones of mine can still hold on for a few more years. Maybe you’ll change your mind in a few years.” Zhou Shijie waved his hand and said indifferently.

It wasn’t the first time that Zhou Shijie had mentioned this matter. Therefore, he was used to being refused by Yuan Zhou and thus didn’t say anything more.

“These little brats don’t know that you’re good at Cantonese cuisine. They’re trying their best to surprise you.” Zhou Shijie signaled Yuan Zhou to look at those Cantonese chefs.

“This is good.” Yuan Zhou said.

“It’s good, but I’m still a little impatient. ” Zhou Shijie said in a low voice.

This time, Yuan Zhou didn’t answer them. He just looked at those Cantonese chefs quietly.

Ever since Yuan Zhou got all the cooking methods of the Cantonese dishes rewarded by the system, he didn’t sell them immediately. Instead, he studied each dish carefully and practiced them proficiently as usual. Moreover, he also checked a lot of history about the Cantonese dishes in order to ensure that he could completely master the Cantonese dishes.

As soon as Qiu Ji picked up the ingredients he prepared, Yuan Zhou knew what he was going to cook.

Fengcheng’s Twin Stars of culinary arts were naturally good at Fengcheng cuisines, which actually belonged to Guangfu cuisines and was also an important birthplace of Guangfu Cantonese cuisines.

Strictly speaking, Fengcheng cuisine was famous for its rich and diverse cooking ingredients and was good at learning from other people’s cooking skills. It was characterized by freshness, freshness, freshness, tenderness, and smoothness. It paid attention to the original taste of the ingredients and had a lighter taste.

Such a taste was also suitable for most people, so the history of Fengcheng cuisine was also very long. It sprouted in the Qin and Han Dynasty, was born in the Tang and Song dynasties, formed in the Ming Dynasty, flourished in the Qing Dynasty, and flourished in the early Republic of China.

And now, Qiu Ji was going to make one of the famous dishes, stir-fried Osmanthus bass. This dish was just like its name, and it was very simple to stir-fry.

However, it had very high requirements for the ingredients and the chef’s knife skills.

When Yuan Zhou looked over, Qiu Ji was slaughtering the bass. Whether it was the slaughtering technique or other aspects, it seemed to be very superb.

There was only a small amount of blood, and it didn’t even stain the White and tender fish meat. The fish belly was also very clean, and the fish scales were intact without the slightest scratch.

“Shua shua.” The silver knife light flashed, and the fish was pressed on the chopping board and started to be sliced.

After a brief look, Yuan Zhou shifted his gaze to the other one, Cui Hang, who was also one of the two stars of culinary arts. He was also cooking famous dishes in Feng city.

It was called Xiang Xiang chicken, an improved version of the white cut chicken. Famous chefs in Feng city always liked to absorb new things and then merge them for their own use.

This dish of fragrant chicken was also improved because people were unwilling to eat white-cut chicken after the weather had cooled.

“The timing is just right.” Yuan Zhou recalled the preparation time of the fragrant chicken and then said softly.

Indeed, an hour was just enough to make the fragrant chicken.

Then, Yuan Zhou looked at the famous Sichuan chefs. They were cooking the Sichuan cuisine that Yuan Zhou was most familiar with. Among them, Wu Yue, who was a native of Sichuan but didn’t know how to eat spicy food and was good at cooking mansion dishes, was cooking the salty and fresh hibiscus chicken slices.

The identity of this dish was still controversial, but according to recent records, it was indeed a salty and fresh dish in Sichuan cuisine.

On the other hand, Li Yu was the exact opposite. Chile was only imported from South America in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, while Sichuan’s Chili was rumored to have been imported from the Silk Road in the West. However, Li Yu was from the salt sect, so it could be said that he liked spicy food. Furthermore, he was also very good at cooking chili.

This formed a sharp contrast. Wu Yue’s stove was clean and light, while Li Yu’s stove was in full swing. If it weren’t for the good range hood, the whole house would have been filled with a choking spicy smell.

After looking at the rough craftsmanship of the chefs, Yuan Zhou shifted his gaze to a pastry chef at the side. After all, pastries were also an indispensable part of the exchange meeting.

Just like that, Yuan Zhou looked around earnestly. An hour passed very quickly and the eight people stopped working one after another.
