Yuwen Yi picked up the knife and fork, picked up a piece of duck breast and put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.
He savored the dish carefully and nodded in appreciation. "The duck breast is excellent. The skin is roasted to a golden and crispy texture, while the breast meat remains tender and juicy. The cooking time is just right. Even more noteworthy is the clever use of Sichuan peppercorns. It doesn't mask the inherent freshness of the duck breast, but rather adds a unique numb aroma that leaves a lasting impression."
"The mushroom risotto is cooked to perfection. The delicious flavor of the mushrooms blends beautifully with the soft, glutinous rice, complementing each other and adding a richer flavor to the dish. Furthermore, your meticulous attention to detail is evident in the risotto's preparation. Every grain of rice absorbs the mushroom's flavor evenly, leaving the dish incredibly satisfying."
Zhao Ruixiang commented: "I really like your use of Sichuan peppercorns in this dish. It not only brings a unique flavor to the duck breast, but also reflects the local characteristics, which is very impressive."
Fu Shilang nodded in agreement. "Indeed, Mengya's dish demonstrates a very high level of skill, both in terms of the combination of ingredients and cooking techniques. You know, pan-frying duck breast is not easy. Many professional chefs need months or even years of practice to fully master it."
Noticing that Mengya was a little insecure due to her visual impairment, Fu Shilang added, "Mengya, I want to tell you that this dish of yours has proven your strength. You have every reason to be proud of yourself, and you are worthy of standing here."
Hearing Fu Shilang's words, Meng Ya's eyes became red with envy. She nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you."
Wen Qi also said, "Yes, Mengya. Your cooking is no worse than anyone else's, and in some ways, even better. Your perseverance and tenacity will surely lead you to greater success in the future."
Tears welled up in Mengya's eyes. She placed her hands on her chest and said, "I'm very glad that I bravely signed up for the program and came here. I've met great friends and learned a lot from the teachers. My experience here has made me more convinced that as long as I don't set limits, nothing can limit me."
She continued with a smile, "To be honest, when I first participated in the competition, I lost some of my passion for cooking. Life is unpredictable, and you never know where fate will take you. But through the competition, I gradually rediscovered my original intention. Although I may not be completely confident now, I have learned not to be afraid."
