There was rust on the iron windows of the guesthouse, and there were several cracks on the glass windows. The cracks were old and yellow. The thermos was also a bit old, and the wooden stopper had shrunk and deformed, struggling to stay supported on the mouth of the thermos.
Jiang Zao sat at the table and answered decisively: "I will use all my strength."
"Master, I feel that no matter how many people enter, Su Huaizhou will target me. I am hiding this because I don't want it to affect tomorrow's game. Tomorrow I will show my full strength."
Sun Ligen sighed: "It's okay, relax, the master will help you no matter what."
They had known each other for a short time, but he had raised the child and treated her like his own daughter.
Jiang Zao smiled and nodded: "Okay."
It is her blessing to meet such a good master.
She didn't feel any pressure. Once she made a decision, she tried her best to execute it perfectly, leaving the unknown dangers ahead to the future.
Jiang Zao slept soundly all night and was full of energy for the competition the next day.
In a ten-player match, the players move from the outside field to the inside field.
The venue was large, with a red banner reading 'The 5th County Chef Competition' hanging on the white wall.
The organizers, leaders, and judges all sat on the podium.
There are leather chairs at a long table, uniform white teacups with lids, dark blue edges, and standard red five-pointed stars. Next to the cups are score sheets and record books.
Below the stage was a place similar to a conference hall, with more than 50 seats and red chairs. Sun Ligen and the others were sitting in the audience watching.
The area where the contestants are located between the judges and spectators.
There are two rows of five people in each row, with enough space in the middle for them to move around without interfering with each other. The judges can also come down and observe the contestants' work closely.
Jiang Zao is on the far left of the second row, next to him is Su Huaizhou.
Wang Meili and Shi Chunzi are both in the first row.
The contestants all dressed and stood in position.
Seeing Jiang Zao, who was wearing a white chef's uniform and had a slender and good-looking figure, the spectators couldn't help but comment with tinted glasses: "That woman on the far left, did she get there based on her own strength?"
"I think he got in through the back door. Maybe he's a relative of someone's. How can he make something with his skinny arms and legs?"
When Sun Ligen heard this, he didn't argue with them.
His apprentice will amaze everyone later, just like the last time he made flower buns at the Cheng family.
He still remembers everyone's jaws dropping in surprise, hahahaha, and he can't wait to see it again.
Jiang Dazhu and Chen Baijing, who didn't make it to the next round, were nearby. Chen Baijing heard someone nearby saying bad things about Jiang Zao, but Master Sun didn't get angry and was smiling. Chen Baijing couldn't help but worry and said to Jiang Dazhu, "Master Sun, will he faint from anger? How can he still be smiling?"
Jiang Dazhu didn't understand either: "Maybe."
The host, wearing a white shirt and bright red lipstick, held a microphone with a red flower tied on it and announced the start of the competition on the stage and distributed the rules of the competition.
"There are two assessment items in this competition."
The silver thread paper in yesterday's test was to test basic skills, with unified questions and to be completed within the specified time.
Today's assessment is different.
"For the required pastry, contestants must use 500 grams of flour, 300 grams of minced pork, and scallions and soy sauce provided on site to make steamed buns. They must complete the process of kneading the dough, forming the dough, rolling out the dough, and preparing the filling within 20 minutes. The buns must have at least 18 folds.
The finished products are all nine pieces of uniform size, weighing 55 grams, with a fluctuation of 10 percent. The finished products are sent to the judges using a 35-centimeter judge provided by the county and arranged in a '333' pattern.
"The second item is a self-selected pastry, using 500g of flour and 200g of lotus seed paste filling provided on site. The shortening, dough mixing, pastry making, and shaping of the pastry need to be done independently on site, and can be completed within 50 minutes."
"The competition officially begins!"
The first item only has 20 minutes, so time is limited.
The dough is scooped, kneaded and fermented with ginger and jujube in one go.
Then she prepared the filling. Her movements were so steady that she didn't need to measure the proportions at each step. She added yeast and seasonings based on her feel, and her movements were many times faster than others.
The preliminary preparations had already attracted the attention of everyone present, and even Su Huaizhou's attention was attracted when Jiang Zao pinched the dough.
The technique of leaving afterimages quickly and the dosage of uniform size without error, could he be the bragging and incompetent person that Wang Meili said?
If she doesn't have the ability, everyone present will be useless!
Chen Yu became famous at a young age and died young. Many people only knew that there was a female pastry chef with an extraordinary sense of touch, but few people had seen it with their own eyes. She could pinch out dough pieces more accurately than a machine by just passing her hands over the noodles.
As a master craftsman, Duan Zhenyun naturally noticed that the ginger and dates were not only the same size, but also completely met the required weight of the dough!
She is a genius!!!
"Why did you stand up, fat black guy in front? You're blocking my view. Sit down quickly!" The speaker was the comrade who had just complained about Jiang Zao. She had been completely conquered by Jiang Zao and didn't want to miss any details.
"What are you doing, Fatty Black? Sit down!"
The people in the back rows were also unhappy.
Duan Zhenyun was dumbfounded.
He couldn't hear anyone's voice until the staff motioned him to sit down, then he sat down stiffly.
There is no need to prove that Jiang Zao is Shen Yu's child!
Such a genius was accepted by Sun Ligen.
Okay, yesterday you pretended to be incompetent and left them defenseless, and today you show off your big sword. Are you treating them like your sons?
Duan Zhenyun glared at Sun Ligen angrily.
Sun Ligen made a gesture of concession.
Duan Zhenyun almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Jiang Zao took nine doses and stopped.
Everyone was still not satisfied and started shouting, "Why not have the test of making 100 buns?"
