Chapter 1675

Below the stage, Zhang Yan and Fujiwara Jiayuan were explaining in detail. During the explanation, they also introduced the dishes of the four people.

Because the two of them had done a lot of homework before coming here, it could be said that the two of them were explaining with references from classics.

Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, was watching the competition attentively. Of course, whenever Zhang Yan or tengyuan Jiayuan talked to him, he would still explain it to them seriously.

Although he didn’t say much, each word and sentence was very incisive.

Quite a few cameras were focused on the judging panel, but most of them were focused on the four people on the stage.

Although the four of them were dressed differently, their expressions were very similar. All of them were fully focused on the ingredients in their hands, preparing seriously.

Dashi xiujie was busy processing and cutting the podo chicken into chicken meat and chicken racks. Sucha had already processed the chicken meat and was processing the bird peppered peppercorn and lemons that he had flown over from Thailand.

Dupond had already started preparing the soup. After all, he was making the famous Philippines dish, adobo. This dish still needed to be prepared with a soup base.

The most special one was ke Sen. Why was he special? it was because he was cooking chili. Yes, it was the Daddi chili that was indispensable for cooking in Guizhou.

The organizer had naturally provided this seasoning, but the first thing that Kosen did when he received the chicken was to preserve it freshingly. After that, he went to smell the dapper chili that was provided.

Then, he started to make new ones without any hesitation. It was obvious that the Jie mu group’s preparation did not meet Kosen’s expectations. He wanted to make new ones himself.

“This Kosen must be making a new dish of Daddi chilies.” Zhang Ye said.

“Yes, every chef has their own requirements for the seasonings they are used to.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and agreed with the practice of doing everything by himself.

“Dashi xiujie is also re-mixing the tangerine vinegar. So are sucha and Dupond.” Then, Yuan Zhou signaled Zhang Yan and tengyuan Jiayuan to look at that direction.

“It’s just as head chef Yuan said. Every head chef has their own requirements for the condiments they are used to. The condiments provided by the organizer can only be said to be of a unified standard.” Fujiwara Jiayuan also nodded in agreement.

The four chefs had mastered their cooking skills very well in three hours. However, the first one to finish was Kosen.

“I’ve already finished making it. Judges, you can taste it now. ” Kosen raised his hand and gestured, then took a step back from the glass counter.

There were still ten minutes left before the time limit ended.

Kosen and his father, Colin, had completely different personalities. Colin was mature and serious, and he was extremely demanding when it came to cooking.

Kosen, on the other hand, looked like a middle-aged man with a steady and friendly expression. He did not have the carefulness that he usually had in front of his father.

That’s right, Kosen was very careful in front of Colin. It was obvious that both father and son knew about this, so Colin did not appear in today’s final.

The purpose was to not affect his son’s performance. However, Colin was also watching him through the live broadcast. After all, the quota was exchanged for half of his manuscript, which could be said to be very precious.

Colin, who was staring at the screen, saw his son raise his hand to indicate that it was done. He couldn’t help but say,””As expected of my son, being the first to complete it is not bad.”

They were all experienced chefs who were very familiar with these twists and turns. It wouldn’t affect the score much if they completed it within the stipulated time, but the first one to complete it would get a little favorability score.

Of course, the premise was that the dish had a high degree of completion. If the dish was not ready and he wanted to be the first to finish, it would be counterproductive.

As Kosen finished, sucha raised his hand to indicate that he had finished as well. He spoke in inaccurate Chinese,”Judges, please have a taste.”

In the last five minutes, Dupond also closed the lid and raised his hand to indicate that he had also finished today’s meal.

The three-hour cooking time soon came to the countdown. The second-counting Bell was very oppressive. However, dashi xiujie’s mentality was very good. He finished the unfinished part unhurriedly. Moreover, he also checked the arrangement of the food in the pot.

In the end, dashi xiujie closed the last lid. As the last Gong sounded, he also raised his hand to indicate that he had also finished.

Yuan Zhou nodded his head. Kosen and dashi xiujie began and ended one after another. The former was steady and clean, while the latter had a strong psychological quality. This proved Yuan Zhou’s vision from a different perspective.

“Ka Cha, ka Cha …”

The hall was no longer smoky, and only the sound of reporters pressing the shutter could be heard, as well as the aroma of food.

It was at this moment that Yuan Zhou stood up. The cameras and line of sight of the whole audience immediately shifted from the contestants to Yuan Zhou. This was the influence that belonged to Yuan Zhou.

“Okay, the last cooking exchange of the young chefs ‘exchange meet is over. Next, we will taste your dishes in order of completion.” After Yuan Zhou said that, he sat down.

After Yuan Zhou sat down, he conversed with Zhang Yan and Fujiwara Jiayuan about some things. Then, Qin Kaili, who was backstage, stood up and started to host the final tasting activity.

“The first person to finish his dish in this competition is head chef Kosen from Guizhou Province. The main dish he’s cooking this time is xueyang langyang chicken.” Qin Kaili’s voice was heard by everyone through the microphone.

“Next, we will invite the service staff to serve head chef Kosen’s dishes.” Following Qin Kaili’s words, a group of young ladies in cheongsam split into three rows and brought the covered dishes on the glass counter to the judges.

At this time, the panel of judges had already tidied up the place. A red tablecloth was laid out on it, and the porcelain-white tableware was placed one by one.

There were four dishes and a glass of water in a small bowl in front of everyone. These were the dishes that Kosen had made today.

The main dish and three side dishes were all covered with silver covers.

“You can open it now.” Yuan Zhou wiped his hands clean and then said.

“Alright, it seems like our judges are ready to taste head chef COSON’s dish. Let’s look over there. I wonder what kind of expression our judges will have.” Qin Kaili said.

Following Qin Kaili’s words, the camera and everyone’s eyes turned to the three judges.

Zhang Yan, Fujiwara Jiayuan, and Yuan Zhou were used to being stared at by others. They were completely immune to such gazes. They waited for the waiter to open the lid calmly.

After a slight “Hua la” sound, the true appearance of the four dishes was revealed before everyone’s eyes.

“Eh?”

“He’s a little powerful. ”

“Indeed, it’s actually the exact same shape.”

“No, look carefully. The chicken in front of each judge is different.”

That’s right, the side dishes could be skipped. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the main dish, the fire beacon sun rooster.

Xi Xingyang’s chicken had been introduced before. In fact, it was just a spicy chicken. However, the spicy chicken in front of the three of them was somewhat different.

The dish inside was arranged in the shape of a rooster. The tail was made of bright red chili, and the tender yellow chicken was cut into small pieces with a layer of bright Daddi chili.

It was like a majestic rooster laid flat on a porcelain plate. In terms of plate presentation, this dish was quite good.

However, everyone soon discovered the difference. As someone had said, although each of them had a rooster in front of them, the part of the meat was different.

Other than the media, everyone else present was a top young chef. Naturally, they could tell the difference at a glance.

“That’s very thoughtful of you. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“Yes, it’s very thoughtful. I have chicken breast.” Zhang Ye said.

“This is diced chicken tenderloin,” Fujiwara Jiayuan said.

“Then let’s start tasting.” Yuan Zhou said.

Just as the three of them were tasting the food, Qin Kaili and everyone else started to stare at the three judges ‘expressions seriously, waiting for the next step of the commentary.

Yuan Zhou was the first to eat it. In front of him was the thick and elastic drumstick of Xuyang chicken.

Each piece of meat was cut into chestnut-sized pieces, wrapped in a layer of red Daddi chili. When he stuffed them into his mouth, the gravy of the chicken burst out as his teeth chewed. The spiciness of the chili also rushed into his throat, but it didn’t choke his throat. It just had a burning feeling.

On the other hand, the chicken meat was very elastic, and the tendons on the chicken leg could be eaten. The texture was very good.

As they were judges, the three of them took two small sips, rinsed their mouths with water, and then put down their chopsticks.

Zhang Yan and tengyuan Jiayuan both looked at Yuan Zhou, waiting for him to speak first. However, Yuan Zhou said,””You two first.”

“Then I won’t be polite.” Zhang Ji nodded his head and said.

“It’s spicy and dry. Although it’s the least chewy chicken breast, it’s extremely tender and smooth. The chicken meat is fresh and sweet. It’s obvious that Xiyan local chicken was chosen. The taste combination doesn’t lose the taste of Guizhou and has been improved so that everyone can taste the taste of Guizhou in one bite. However, it’s also in line with the general public’s taste, which is very rare.” Zhang Ye’s evaluation of him was very high.

Then, Fujiwara Jiayuan began to comment.

“We all know that as a person grows older, not only will their culinary skills improve, but also their teeth and taste buds will deteriorate. Head chef Kosen has made good use of this point and allowed everyone to eat the chicken parts that suit their taste the best. This is both a clever thought and a strength.” Fujiwara Jiayuan said with emotion.

After the two of them said that, everyone started to look at Yuan Zhou, waiting to hear his comments.

Even the calm and honest-looking Kosen straightened his back subconsciously, wanting to listen to Yuan Zhou’s evaluation seriously.

“Since both Mr. Fujiwara and President Zhang Ye are praising it, then I’ll say that it’s not enough.” Yuan Zhou said.

As soon as he said that, Kosen’s heart instantly tensed up.

“First of all, it’s a good idea to go with the dishes according to one’s personal taste. However, the taste of the chicken’s upper leg and the stick leg are different. There’s a sweetness near the bone. Second, the chicken skin is not fully utilized.” Yuan Zhou didn’t say anything else after twoo’ clock.

As soon as Yuan Zhou’s words fell, a burst of discussion immediately broke out at the side. No one doubted that Yuan Zhou was picking bones from an egg when he said “insufficient.”

Everyone was both amazed by Yuan Zhou’s sensitive taste sense and also quite used to his strictness.

It was because all the chefs present knew how harsh Yuan Zhou was to himself. After all, Yuan Zhou’s work and rest schedule was still in the saved database of everyone.

Kosen, who was being criticized, bowed to the three of them and said,”Thank you for your comments. I will work harder next time.”

As a chef, Kosen naturally knew what Yuan Zhou was talking about was the teaching stuff.

“Alright, then let’s begin tasting head chef sucha’s dish. The main course is lemon cashew chicken.” Qin Kaili spoke up at the right time.

“This dish is also a famous Thailand dish. Next, let us invite our beautiful waitresses to serve head chef su Cha’s dish to the judges.” Qin Kaili waved her hand, signaling for the dishes to be served.

“I hope the three judges will be satisfied with my food today.” Sucha said with a smile, speaking loudly in accented Chinese.

“It seems our Mr. Sucha is very confident. Then let the judges begin tasting.” Qin Kaili also smiled and replied.

“Of course. However, I still hope that head chef yuan can criticize me more. That way, I will have a direction to improve next time.” Sucha’s personality was more cheerful, and although her Chinese wasn’t very accurate, she was quick to respond.

“Haha, I think Mr. Sucha will get his wish. Head chef COSON has already received a little hint, right?” Qin Kaili blinked.

While Qin Kaili and sucha were livening up the atmosphere with questions and answers, Yuan Zhou had already started to taste sucha’s dishes.
