Bai Hongrui received the takeout box that flew into his hand under the control

of thought waves.

This discovery with the thought waves made him understand one of the reasons why Qin Lang received more votes than himself.

But mere quantity without quality wouldn’t allow the opponent to get so many more votes than him.

The taste of this gravy seafood is the key to the opponent’s victory!

Let me see what is contained within your delicious food!

Thinking of this, a sharper look appeared in Bai Hongrui’s eyes.

He opened the takeout box and scrutinized the gravy seafood carefully.

Although it could be directly observed in the glass tank, seeing it close at hand naturally felt more real.

Although he just had a glance, something seemed off about Bai Hongrui’s expression.

instead of rushing to taste it, he used chopsticks to lift the seafood on the surface to take a look at the seafood soaked in the sauce, lying at the bottom.

After examining every kind of seafood in the takeout box, Bai Hongrui’s head jerked up to look at Qin Lang. “Fresh Full?!”

“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded and opened his mouth humbly, “My Food Spirit’s food skill is Fresh Full, which gives me somewhat of an advantage when cooking seafood ingredients, so I might have gotten a bit lucky.”

“Gurulu!”

This is my credit!

Dan Bao wagged her big tail proudly.

The other Spirit Chefs also discovered the exceptional freshness of the ingredients, and upon hearing Qin Lang’s words, the envy on their faces intensified.

The mind-type war skill, Thought Waves, can at least be awakened through a

skill stone.

The Food Spirit’s food skill, however, truly depends on luck.

Bai Hongrui felt increased pressure.

He stopped talking, picked up a piece of scallop meat and put it in his mouth, starting his tasting.

The soft yet sweet scallop meat burst with juice in his mouth with each chew.

The taste of lemon, the saltiness, and spiciness of the soup mixed together brought an unparalleled taste experience that earned Bai Hongrui’s admiration.

But at the same time, there was confusion in his heart.

As he tasted the other seafood, this confusion grew.

That’s because this dish was too simple.

Top-tier ingredients, simple process, boiled and soaked in specially prepared

sauce, and it’s ready to eat after a while.

With such simple cooking steps, he could discern just with a bite.

The sauce was just right, which was one of the highlights.

But this was completely different from the cooking he had in mind, which demonstrated one’s culinary skills.

But if judged impartially, was this food delicious?

Bai Hongrui knew that in terms of deliciousness, it was no less than the dish he had carefully prepared with complex procedures.

“Did you rely solely on the freshness of the ingredients for victory?” Bai

Hongrui couldn’t help but ask.

“I believe that for seafood, the cooking process doesn’t need to be too complicated.” Qin Lang nodded slightly, “Especially when the ingredients themselves are high-end.”

“High-end ingredients often only need the simplest cooking method.”

“But in this case, how to distinguish the level of culinary skills?” Another Spirit Chef frowned and couldn’t help but speak, “Such simple cooking can be easily replicated.”

Although the Fresh Full food skill is needed, there are other Spirit Chefs who possess this food skill. Even if they can’t replicate exactly the same dish, they are totally capable of making something similar.

“That’s what I was thinking too.”

“I agree too…”

Quite a few Spirit Chefs nodded in agreement.

They weren’t trying to cause trouble for or target Qin Lang.

Since it was a discussion, collisions of different opinions were inevitable.

Qin Lang didn’t falter and smiled slightly, “I believe that the most important thing about food is the color, aroma, and taste that it finally presents, not the process.”

“What do you think of the taste of this seafood dish?”

The other Spirit Chefs fell silent.

The combination of Qin Lang’s sauce and top-tier seafood ingredients was difficult to fault in terms of taste.

“Moreover…” seeing the other Spirit Chefs acknowledging this point, Qin Lang changed the subject, “I have another dish at my stall, why not give it a try? “I’ll have an order of crab roe fried rice!” Bai Hongrui was the first to regain his senses.

With this gravy seafood dish, he both conceded and disputed it.

In terms of taste, his competitor indeed did not fall short of him.

But such a simple cooking process gave him a feeling of cutting corners.

Therefore, he wanted to see if the other dish was also like this.

Soon, an order of crab roe fried rice was served to Bai Hongrui.

“Enjoy your meal.”

Looking at the crab roe fried rice in his hand that could be finished in one bite, Bai Hongrui felt a little dazed.

The gravy seafood was sold by weight, which meant the food guests could choose their own portion size.

Moreover, that wasn’t for immediate consumption, it could be taken away to eat later.

The crab roe fried rice that he now had in hand was the complete opposite.

The portion size that could be finished in one bite put no pressure on the food guests at all.

Bai Hongrui, having learnt about the importance of portion size in running a stall from his own practice, had made some adjustments to his dishes accordingly.

However, this youngster who was even younger than him seemed more outrageous.

Inhaling the rich scent of crab that was enveloped in the heat and rushing towards his face, and looking at the crab powder in front of him that was yellow with a hint of bright red colour, Bai Hongrui swallowed his saliva.

Compared to the gravy seafood, the crab roe fried rice in front of him was clearly much more technologically advanced.

Everyone considered cheap gourmet food to be low in technology and expensive gourmet food to be high in technology.

Qin Lang was actually doing it in reverse!

Taking a bite of the crab roe fried rice and slowly savouring it, Bai Hongrui fell silent.

This taste…

This taste!!!

The rich crab flavour fully fused with rice, an unprecedented strange feeling arose in his heart.

If expensive gourmet foods were being compared, the one he had prepared could rival Qin Lang’s gravy seafood dish.

But for low-priced gourmet foods, Qin Lang’s crab roe fried rice was a total onslaught on his dish.

The other Spirit Chefs, who had just been advocating that gourmet cooking should show more culinary skills, also fell silent at the moment.

They couldn’t distinguish the cooking method of this crab roe fried rice at a glance, which meant it was different from the gravy seafood just now and required a high level of technical skill.

Crab meat, crab roe, crab paste.

It’s not hard to mix them, but it’s not easy to perfectly interweave their tastes and textures.

“The cooking time for this crab roe fried rice should not be too short, right?” After a moment of silence, a calm middle-aged Spirit Chef slowly spoke, “I can feel that the crab meat, crab roe and crab paste have been simmered for a long time to fully combine together.”

“That pot of yours must have a cooking time of at least one hour.

The other Spirit Chefs came to their senses.

Right!

Low-priced gourmet is all about high turnover and low margins.

With such a long cooking time, they can’t sell very many!

“No need, ten minutes is enough.” Qin Lang said with a grin, “My other food skill is Cooking Acceleration.”

The assembled Spirit Chefs:”???”
