The Charming Inn that had previously provoked Xiaoman and Mingyue has fallen outside the top five. The public chat channel of the travel system has long been quiet, and there has been no system communication for a long time.
Mingyue still remembers the bet with the Charming Hotel. According to the time in the hell plane, there are still 5.5 hell hours.
Converted into the time of the gourmet plane, it means there are still five and a half years.
Mingyue couldn't help but sigh that the time difference was really a good thing. She had spent so much time in the food plane, but only more than a day had passed in hell.
However, the atmosphere in hell was really more to her liking. In a place like the Gourmet Plane with management, she couldn't just find a piece of unowned land to build a hotel.
If your first plane is somewhere else, you may not be able to make money so quickly.
Now it’s finally almost time, and she is only one step away from opening her store.
That's the finals.
In the tense competition among the top four, Mingyue was the first to advance to the top three.
Di Hu, Lan Qingying and Meng Ya compete in the elimination round.
As the competition reached the semi-finals, the difficulty soared, and even Mingyue felt that the competition was full of unknowns.
The competition for the top four is still the mystery box segment of the cooking competition, and they will face a huge unknown challenge.
This time, in addition to the mysterious box in front of Mingyue and the others, there was also a mysterious box in front of the judges.
Fu Shilang slowly opened the box in front of him, and fish and rice appeared in front of everyone.
The snow-white fish meat is evenly distributed on the white rice.
Why are there several whole fish bones on the pot lid?
Mingyue and the other three leaned their heads over to look at the dish in front of them, feeling that it might not be as simple as it looked.
The judges began to introduce the dish.
"Dear contestants, you have reached the semifinals, which means the competition has become more difficult. You will be challenged with a particularly complex dish, 'Jade Suitcase Match 3'. This is a famous dish with a long history, renowned for its unique cooking method. Its preparation requires extreme skill and precise control of ingredients."
"This dish requires not opening the fish's belly, removing the scales, or removing the bones. When the fish is cooked, the scales, viscera, and bones disappear – this is the 'three disappearances'. The fish flesh falls off the bones and spills onto the rice – this is 'jade shattering'."
"Does it sound magical that scales disappear? To achieve this, a special ingredient is needed: knife fish."
"The scales of saury melt into fish oil when heated, and the saury must be fresh so that the meat and bones can be separated during the steaming process."
"Today, we've prepared fresh saury for you, along with the ingredients needed to make this dish. Everything is in the box in front of you. Please open it. You'll have one hour to make this dish."
Mingyue opened the mysterious box in front of her and saw a fresh knife fish in a water tank, with vegetables, rice and other ingredients beside it.
Each contestant has only one knife fish in his box, which means that there can be no mistakes in handling the fish.
The judges continued, "This dish will determine who among you will advance to the top three, which is the final."
"You have one hour to cook, and it starts now!"
The moment the judges announced the start of the countdown, the contestants quickly moved.
Mingyue quickly scanned the simple recipe on the table. When making this kind of unfamiliar dish, the program team will give a simple recipe and tell the contestants the general process of cooking, but the recipe is relatively simple and the specific operation is up to the contestants themselves.
After reading the recipe, Mingyue immediately decided to cook the chicken soup first.
This dish requires broth to simmer rice, but the mystery box does not provide any broth, so the contestants must make it themselves.
Chicken was provided in the box, so Mingyue decided to prepare chicken soup.
Mingyue washed the chicken, poured it into the pot, added a spoonful of water, and stir-fried it repeatedly until the chicken released oil in the pot. Then she added hot water and brought it to a boil, then transferred it to a pressure cooker and simmered it for twenty minutes.
Mingyue doesn’t like to blanch the chicken when making chicken soup, because if the chicken is fresh, blanching will remove the freshness of the chicken. Stir-frying it dry can retain the essence of the chicken.
After the chicken soup is ready, it’s time to prepare the knife fish.
This dish does not involve cutting open the fish belly, so you need to insert a pair of chopsticks into the fish belly and then turn it to bring out the internal organs.
Then bleed the fish. Cut the tail of the knife fish, hang the fish head up, and bleed the fish with the tail pointing downwards. After bleeding, the fish meat will become snow-whiter.
While waiting for the knife fish to bleed, prepare the ingredients for cooking and wash and chop the vegetables.
Chop some ham into pieces.
Add oil to the pan, add chopped ham and chopped vegetables and stir-fry.
When cooking the chicken soup, Mingyue soaked the rice in water first.
Now drain the water and pour the rice into the pot.
The chicken soup was almost ready. Mingyue put the pressure cooker under the faucet and rinsed the lid with running cold water to cool the pot quickly.
When you open the lid of the pot, you will see a layer of yellow chicken oil floating on the chicken soup.
Pour the chicken broth into the rice pot and season briefly.
While Mingyue was doing everything in an orderly manner, the other contestants were also trying their best to replicate the dish.
Mengya couldn't see, so she could only feel around with her hands to determine the location of the fish's mouth.
But for her, knife fish is easier to handle than those bony sea fish.
