The meat will not be loose or tasteless.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lu Rong immediately turned off the heat and then put in the pickled papaya, scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers.
Then add water, cover the pot, and continue to cook over high heat.
The sourness of the papaya adds a touch of tanginess to the old hen soup.
The flavors of the two can be combined well, resulting in a more delicious broth and meat flavor.
In less than five minutes, the soup in the pot was boiling, and a lot of white steam kept rising from the golden broth.
A tangy and refreshing aroma began to fill the nostrils, whetting one's appetite.
Seeing that it was almost done, Lu Rong immediately turned the heat down to low and added salt, chicken bouillon, and other seasonings.
And just like that, this sour papaya and old hen soup is almost ready to be served.
There were many volunteers on site. As long as the food was cooked well, you could raise your hand and let them take it up for the judges to taste.
By this time, many people had already prepared their dishes and had the volunteers bring them over.
Soon, the first dish for the judges to taste appeared.
It's a very common dish: stir-fried green peppers with pork.
It's clear that the cook of this dish only managed to get green peppers and pork, so this is what they ended up with.
However, if you have good cooking skills, you can make it taste very good.
Although stir-fried green peppers with pork is a very ordinary dish, it tastes quite good.
Many people love to eat it.
At least compared to others, this dish has a significant advantage.
Many people only managed to grab some ingredients that weren't suitable for pairing.
For example, many people only managed to get corn, tomatoes, etc., and no matter what they did, it was difficult to make them taste good.
Of course, the judges aren't fools. They don't just look at the overall taste of the dish; they also look at whether you can bring out the best flavor of the ingredients within a limited set of ingredients.
In other words, as long as you do a good job, even if your ingredients aren't great, the judges will still give you a high score.
Of course, this is difficult to achieve with a limited menu.
Meanwhile, the five judges on the judging panel were already eating heartily.
Sitting in the middle is Li Shangui, and the others look to be around 60 years old.
It's clearly a familiar face in the culinary world.
They are all figures of considerable status, easily picked out from among others.
Lu Rong took a look and saw that the dish was made by chef number 195.
And she was a female chef, around 20 years old.
With her hair tied in a small ponytail and her fair and delicate skin, she looked nothing like someone who dealt with daily necessities all year round.
Her posture was very upright, and from Lu Rong's perspective, an S-shaped curve could be clearly seen.
This prompted Lu Rong to observe more closely.
After all, there weren't many women among the more than two hundred participants.
And she's such a young and beautiful girl, which makes her stand out.
Just then, the girl also saw Lu Rong looking at her.
Her pretty face instantly lit up with a smile, and she nodded gently, returning his warm smile...
