Chapter 149 Zhou Guoming's results announced...
The results were announced. During the lunch break, all participating chefs went to Mo Qingyan’s live broadcast room to watch the official video replay of the National Banquet Chef Competition.
I want to see what kind of dishes Mo Qingyan cooked. He actually conquered five judges.
Then they watched Mo Qingyan's game video.
They didn’t fast forward like the judges.
Instead, watch it at a normal speed.
At first, they were very confused when they saw Mo Qingyan using chicken racks and pork bones to make broth.
How do you make soup from this?
Then, I watched Mo Qingyan start to marinate the pork.
Top chefs like them could tell at a glance that Mo Qingyan was holding pork tenderloin.
The tenderloin here is lean but not tough.
Chefs like them like to use tenderloin in many dishes.
There's nothing special about this.
What’s special is that Mo Qingyan only took the tenderloin.
Only the tenderloin was marinated as well.
Then wait until the broth is ready before starting to cook.
In the cooking process, all the seasonings added are very simple.
So simple that all the chefs can't believe it.
However, there are also special places.
For example, when Mo Qingyan cooks, she doesn't use cooking wine, but Huadiao wine.
Generally, chefs use more cooking wine when cooking.
Actually, very few people use Huadiao wine to cook.
Moreover, when Mo Qingyan cooked, she used pickled peppers from Sichuan Province.
Few people use pickled peppers from Sichuan Province to cook.
The main problem is that after soaking, the aroma of the pickled peppers is not as strong as that of fresh peppers. In addition, spices are added when soaking the peppers, although not much.
But if you use it to cook, if it is not cooked well, the dish will be ruined.
Many chefs would not even dare to think of using more than a dozen spices to make beef brisket pot like Mo Qingyan did before.
What's more, the pickled peppers will ferment after being pickled.
After fermentation, it will have some special flavor after fermentation.
Now Mo Qingyan actually chose to use pickled peppers to cook. What was he thinking?
Are you really not afraid of overturning?
However, in the end, not only did he not fail, but he was extremely successful.
The fish-flavored shredded pork he made conquered the five judges.
Those chefs had never eaten Mo Qingyan’s dishes, but after watching Mo Qingyan’s cooking process, they could easily make the same fish-flavored shredded pork.
Then, after they made it themselves and tasted it, they all fell silent.
I never expected that such simple ingredients and seasonings could produce such an incredible dish.
Although, with the same ingredients and seasonings, the dishes made by each chef will taste different.
But the taste won't be much different.
Zhou Ningren, Chen Kang, and Lang Yueming also recreated the dish of shredded pork with fish flavor according to Mo Qingyan's competition video.
The moment Zhou Ningren tasted this dish, the light in his eyes disappeared.
"This dish is incredible. How on earth did he come up with it? If I had played against him in this last game, I would have had no chance at all."
A middle-aged man standing nearby tasted Zhou Ningren's dishes, heard what he said, and immediately frowned and put down his chopsticks.
"Have you lost confidence because of this?" Then how can you become a second-level or first-level state banquet chef in the future? ”
"Dad, you don't know. This Mo Qingyan is different."
"Different? How is he different? Isn't he still a human being? I have met many talented and young chefs who are better than him. In the end, they were all the so-called professional chefs. But I became a first-class state banquet chef. Moreover, for so many years, I have been firmly sitting on the throne of a first-class state banquet chef. Do you know why?"
Zhou Ningren was stunned, "Why?"
He always thought that it was because his father's talent in cooking was unparalleled.
He himself also inherited his father's excellent cooking talent.
So, I am very proud.
However, Zhou Ningren has been hit hard since Chen Kang took off his nameplate last year.
After all, he has never lost since he started participating in gourmet cooking competitions.
Losing to Chen Kang did make Zhou Ningren feel bad, and he felt a bit painful on the face.
However, he was only depressed for a while.
Then it recovered quickly.
In his opinion, the reason why Chen Kang defeated him was just an accident.
He will be back on top soon.
After all, the gap between Chen Kang and him is actually not that big.
However, ever since he met Mo Qingyan at the last food competition, Zhou Ningren finally understood what it meant that there is always someone better than you.
Mo Qingyan's beef brisket pot completely made Zhou Ningren lose confidence in winning.
Because he could never make the beef brisket pot.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't win.
After returning, Zhou Ningren’s fellow disciples comforted him for a long time.
It took a lot of effort for Zhou Ningren to regain his confidence.
Unexpectedly, Mo Qingyan also came to participate in the state banquet chef competition.
When Zhou Ningren first saw Mo Qingyan, he felt a little uneasy.
But he pretended to be calm.
Finally, when I saw Mo Qingyan drew the death number 444.
Zhou Ningren did feel a little relieved.
After all, as for the matter of the death number 444, anyone who has participated in the third-level state banquet chef knows that it is a death number. No one can escape the threat of the Death.
So, in Zhou Ningren's opinion, Mo Qingyan is the same.
Although, it's mean to think that way.
However, no one wants to be overwhelmed by an amateur chef.
However, what was unexpected was that although Mo Qingyan drew the death number 444.
However, he still holds the first place.
Every time, we can turn danger into safety and create miracles.
Even in such a dangerous situation, Mo Qingyan was able to turn the situation around.
Make such incredible dishes.
If he and Mo Qingyan could switch positions.
Zhou Ningren was very sure that he couldn't do it at all.
This is the gap between him and Mo Qingyan.
Now, his father admitted in front of him that he was not as good as others.
Is this still the father whom I have always regarded as my idol and whom I am extremely proud of?
"What? You don't believe it?" Zhou Guoyang looked at his son's disbelieving eyes, reached out his hand and patted him on the shoulder.
He said earnestly: "Xiao Ren, this world is huge, and there are many people who are more talented than you. If you only care about your talent and don't work hard on yourself, then you will never be able to surpass others. It is even more impossible to surpass yourself. Do you understand?"
In Zhou Ningren's mind, his father has always been a strict father.
The requirements for him are very strict.
Unfortunately, Zhou Ningren was spoiled by his family.
What's more, his grandparents doted on him, their only grandson. Therefore, Zhou Ningren developed the habit of being surrounded by a group of people wherever he went.
Because this is a habit he developed since childhood.
It is precisely because of this that Zhou Guoyang does not have a good face towards Zhou Ningren, his only biological son.
Because he always felt that his son was so talented, but he was too proud of his talent, which was a waste.
Therefore, the relationship between them as father and son can’t really be considered good.
But now, Zhou Guoyang's father, who is so rare, actually comforted his son Zhou Ningren in a kind voice.
It was really beyond Zhou Ningren's expectations.
It was also the first time that Zhou Ningren felt the fatherly love from Zhou Guoyang.
Therefore, Zhou Ningren said to Zhou Guoyang with red eyes: "I understand, father. Don't worry, I will definitely work hard. I will never do anything stupid like before."
Hearing Zhou Ningren's words, Zhou Guoyang felt very relieved and couldn't help but patted his shoulder again, "You have finally grown up."
Zhou Ningren regained his confidence thanks to his father's comfort.
On the other side, Chen Kang and Lang Yueming, who had once competed with Mo Qingyan in cooking, tasted the restored version of shredded pork with fish flavor. They were not as depressed as Zhou Ningren, or even lost confidence.
Instead, they are full of fighting spirit.
Because they can get to where they are today thanks to their own efforts.
Therefore, meeting a master like Mo Qingyan can actually fuel their fighting spirit even more.
In addition to Mo Qingyan, the second-ranked female level 3 state banquet chef is also one of their challenge targets this time.
That third-level state banquet-level female chef can also be considered a talented state banquet-level chef.
Her talent in cooking is no less than Zhou Ningren's.
It’s just that because Zhou Ningren has a father who is a first-class state banquet chef, he is more famous.
In the morning, Mo Qingyan unexpectedly advanced again. After Li Zhenmin was eliminated, Mo Qingyan seemed a little lonely.
After all, Mo Qingyan stood out among a group of professional chefs.
In fact, it’s not that the other chefs don’t want to pay attention to Mo Qingyan.
Many chefs are eager to understand and challenge the masters.
However, there was a cameraman following Mo Qingyan, who was broadcasting live at any time.
Those chefs were afraid that if they accidentally said something wrong, it would be broadcast live.
Therefore, it is better to do less than more.
Then, the scene was formed as if everyone was encouraging Mo Qingyan.
However, Mo Qingyan didn't feel unhappy or lost at all.
On the contrary, I feel that it is nice not to be disturbed by anyone.
Before the game starts, you can play games quietly by yourself.
Soon, the host and five familiar judges appeared on stage again and began to announce the final rules of the competition.
This game is divided into two rounds.
The first round is a competition.
There are a total of 40 chefs participating in this competition.
The 40 chefs randomly selected their opponents to form a team, and then the two of them began the competition.
The winner of the competition will directly become a level three state banquet chef.
The loser of the match will enter the second round of knockouts.
The knockout round mechanism is also that teams compete against each other in pairs.
The final winner will become a level three state banquet chef.
Mo Qingyan was the first one to go up and draw the opponent.
Many people present couldn't help but pray silently in their hearts.
Pray that Mo Qingyan doesn’t hit me.
Of course, there are also people who are eager to try and want to compete with Mo Qingyan.
Mo Qingyan casually pulled out a piece of paper.
The host opened the slip of paper and called out the name on it.
"No. 145, Jiang Kai, a third-level state banquet chef from K City."
"What? Me?"
A young man sitting in the front seat pointed at his nose with a look of surprise.
The others breathed a sigh of relief when they didn't hear their names.
Great, it wasn't them.
