Guan Yan had gone to wash his hands. According to common sense, Zhang Yitian had to do some preparations as well, but he actually didn't make the slightest movement. Furthermore, he was sitting steadily on the sofa in the living room with Mt.

After Guan Yan was done preparing, he went straight into the kitchen. Zhang Yitian then got up and followed him.

Everything else was secondary. As long as he could see how this fellow cooked, that was the main point!

But the moment he went closer, he saw Guan Yan holding onto his kitchen knife with a vigilant look on his face as he said to him, "Please leave! I've never allowed others to watch my cooking! "

Zhang Yitian suddenly felt something rumbling in his head. Even though he had eaten these dishes before, he didn't want to see them. If he was going to do it, then he might as well just admit defeat.

Zhang Yitian had a quick mind, he replied immediately: "What, you don't want the judges to see you cooking during the competition? "In that case, I would like to know how these judges determine that you have won!"

His rebuttal caused Guan Yan to be a little shocked. That's right, at least this could be considered to be a competition …

Zhang Yitian immediately said again: "I don't want to see you do it, who knows what you will add into the dishes, since it's a competition, we have to be fair. If you were to release the other things, wouldn't that be unfair?"

This time, Zhang Yitian was even more reasonable, but there was no time for Guan Yan to refute at all. His face suddenly became cold, and angrily shouted at Zhang Yitian: "I won't let you see, what can you do?"

With that said, Guan Yan pushed Zhang Yitian out of the kitchen.

The house was not big in the first place, and the kitchen was built using a temporary balcony. Not only was the inside of the house small, a door was even installed.

This time, Zhang Yitian was at his wit's end, he thought he had reason, but the other person didn't even bother to reason with him.

He felt helpless when he finally ended up playing the lute to a cow.

It was impossible to see the entire process of cooking from Guan Yan. Zhang Yitian was depressed, he had to think of a way to learn this cooking method.

After some thought, his mind suddenly lit up like a light bulb, and he had an idea.

Zhang Yitian was not anxious at all, the nervousness on his face eased up a little and he returned back onto the sofa. He took out his phone and started to look for the videos related to the three dishes.

Zhang Yitian did not care about all this. Seeing that he was not prepared at all, and was instead watching a movie, Ke Xinyi was extremely confused.

She took two steps forward, and with a face full of anger, she interrogated Zhang Yitian, "I say, why are you in such a good mood, and you're even watching a movie?"

Right now, it was Ke Xinyi who was even more nervous than Zhang Yitian. Seeing Zhang Yitian's relaxed look, she became even more furious.

How can this be? Seeing that the competition was about to begin, yet she remained indifferent, Ke Xinyi sighed. "Why do you think this has nothing to do with you? If you lose, that'll be two hundred thousand yuan! Let's see where you can get that two hundred thousand yuan from!"

Zhang Yitian suddenly laughed and raised his head to look at Ke Xinyi. He pointed his phone in front of him and said, "Who's watching a movie? I'm just trying to get a feel for my cooking skills, that's all! "

"Huh?" This time, Ke Xinyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Boss, what's wrong with you?" "You've even forgotten how to cook, and you're still sharpening your spear?"

It's over, it's all over, we've lost, even Ke Xinyi herself gave Zhang Yitian a death sentence!

But Zhang Yitian still maintained a look of indifference, but instead, concentrated all of his attention while watching the video.

Although the video had been uploaded for a long time, Zhang Yitian wasn't sure if the cooking method of these dishes had changed, but he had no choice but to brace himself.

If Guan Yan did not let him watch it, he could only find a video to learn about it. But if he could still cook these three dishes later on, then it would count as his victory. The cooking method was only a process, and what everyone was most concerned about was the results.

After about half an hour, the kitchen door opened with a "Ka" sound. The moment the door opened, a rich, mellow smell wafted out from the kitchen.

Zhang Yitian took a deep sniff.

After a long while, Guan Yan finally brought out a plate of piping hot fish out of the kitchen.

Guan Yan's technique was rather nimble. He first split the fish into two, half of himself had already turned into a plate of delicious fish while the other half was still dripping blood in the kitchen sink.

This was also what Guan Yan had done on purpose. Fresh fish and fish that had already been dead for more than half an hour were simply incomparable.

The fresh fish taste even more tender and smooth, and the moment the fish dies, the lactic acid in the meat will suddenly increase. At that time, even a senior chef can only cook this dead fish to its ordinary level.

Although he did not place Zhang Yitian in his eyes at all, Guan Yan still had to hold back. Zhang Yitian was just too arrogant, Guan Yan had actually planned to make him eat it himself!

The more miserably you lose, the happier this bro will be!

The Fishes had just come out of the wok, so the steamed fish was different from steamed or fried fish. It could preserve the taste of the fish to the greatest extent.

Half of the fish was laid flat on the plate, and only the head of the fish was revealed. The rest of the body was covered by various supplementary ingredients.

The vermilion of the vertical pepper ring was like the wetting of agate. Under the effect of the steam, the cilantro was already emerald green, while the minced supplementary ingredients seemed more like a colorful blanket covering the carp.

The fragrance was pleasing to the eye, and her eyesight had such an impact. The moment Guan Yan placed the Fishes on the table, Ke Xinyi also gulped down a mouthful of saliva. She felt that Zhang Yitian did not even need to compare notes with her.

Guan Yan's standards were obvious, he had already reached a very high level, but Zhang Yitian on the other hand... He was actually holding his hands and staring at his phone. That expression of being lost in thought was truly a bit misplaced.

Guan Yan was extremely pleased, as though he had already seen the 200,000 red notes waving at him.

If he won so easily, then he would no longer be a chef in the future. He could compete in four competitions and become a millionaire in less than two years!

The three girls could not hold back their drool any longer, and Shen Ying in particular, couldn't wait to taste it. Just as he took a small bite, his tears almost flowed down.

"Hubby... "From now on, you can cook for me every day!"

Guan Yan was even more pleased with himself, his mouth puckered upwards as he laughed: "Sure! "As long as you..."

Although Guan Yan did not finish his words, his obscene laughter had already expressed his intentions clearly.

Ke Xinyi felt nauseous. This friend of hers was truly naive and naive. Why did he find such a person?

She also tasted it, but she immediately understood why Shen Ying would look for a scum like Guan Yan.

For a foodie, it would be the greatest fortune of his life to be able to eat such delicious food every day!

The fish was soft and tender, coupled with the mellow aroma of various ingredients. This delicacy was enough to make one not want to stop after taking a bite!

Even though Ke Xinyi had never thought of defying her opponent, she could not help but pick up a few more chopsticks. After all, the allure of a delicacy was simply unbearable.

Zhang Yitian was still watching the video attentively for a few dozen seconds. Although there was a screen separating them, the Fishes's cooking skills and various essentials had long been reduced to countless symbols and entered into Zhang Yitian's memories.

Keeping his phone, Zhang Yitian closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Then, he suddenly pursed his lips and smiled.

On the other hand, Guan Yan had been watching Zhang Yitian the entire time. Firstly, this fellow wasn't prepared, secondly, he wasn't nervous. Is he really having money to burn?

It was clear that he did not understand Zhang Yitian, but he did not need to understand her from the start either.

"What is it? What's wrong with not wanting to compete? " Guan Yan shouted, "What do you mean? Do you want to directly pay two hundred thousand, or wait for you to make a fool of yourself before you take out the money? "

Zhang Yitian opened his eyes and suddenly felt refreshed. He laughed and stood up, then rushed to the kitchen.

"Eh? Don't be in such a hurry, it's not certain who will win! " When Zhang Yitian passed by the Fishes that was made by Guan Yan, he intentionally looked at it, "En, your cooking skills are not bad. Everyone, you must keep it to your stomach.

With that, he directly walked into the kitchen. Guan Yan wanted to follow him in, but he thought that Zhang Yitian would chase him out immediately. However, the reality was the opposite.

Zhang Yitian turned his head and gave a sly smile, and did not make a sound.

Guan Yan thought it was strange, but seeing that Zhang Yitian could still laugh, he couldn't help but sweat profusely in his palms.

After recalling the specific steps, Zhang Yitian started to make his move.

Zhang Yitian knew that the lactate on dead fish would accumulate in a short period of time. This thing was not only bad for the taste, but also had no health benefits.

Fortunately, he had just watched the video and there was an introduction. He first spread a layer of scented oil on the body of the fish. This way, during the process of steaming, the scented oil would remove the lactic acid in the fish's meat and make it even more fragrant.

The fish had to be marinated in special ingredients for a period of time, so Zhang Yitian cooked the seasonings step by step. Then, taking advantage of the time it took to marinate the fish, he started to process the various supplementary ingredients.

The main function of these things is to set off the fish's own aroma, but also to combine the smell of the ingredients with that of the fish.

This would depend on the chef's ability, and this level of skill was something that could not be practiced in a decade or eight years.

From the moment he saw the fish that Guan Yan had cooked, Zhang Yitian knew that the cooking method of the video that he had watched was completely different from Guan Yan's. Not only was it the selection of a side dish, it was also the control of all kinds of fire, and there were some differences.

Zhang Yitian's technique looked fast and nimble, but the moment Zhang Yitian started to marinate the fish, a proud smile appeared on his face.

He immediately ridiculed, "I thought you were very capable, but it turns out you're using the same antique method from the last century. Bro, the times have changed, and your method has long been eliminated by the industry. Not only can you not display the true flavor of this dish, you're even adding oil to the fire!"
