Chapter 822: Sugar and Salt
The host, who arrived on time, came on stage and saw that several contestants had finished their dishes. He smiled and said, "The contestants in our group are really capable. Except for number 7, everyone has finished their dishes."
"Now, let the judges, the audience, and the live broadcast room audience taste it together!"
In order to make it easier for the judges and the audience to taste the food, the seven contestants divided the dishes when they were out of the pot. Except for leaving one portion for the audience to taste using the five-sense experiencer, the rest were all sent to the judges' seats.
Contestant No. 1 made fried eggs with crab meat. The soft eggs and crab meat were golden yellow, garnished with seeded chili peppers and green chopped green onions. In terms of color, it was very good.
As for the fragrance, I didn't smell it, but there was a faint fishy smell.
After tasting it, Jian Yan and the others remained calm, but Chef Lu vomited out the food with a "wow" sound, and then asked contestant No. 1 with a look of horror, "No. 1, do you have a grudge against the sugar merchant?"
Number 1 was surprised when he heard this, "Teacher Lu, are you saying that my egg and crab meat dish is sweet?"
"It's overly sweet, bitter, and greasy, and mixed with the fishy smell of egg and crab meat, the taste is simply amazing."
Before he finished speaking, Chef Lu couldn't wait to put a capsule into his mouth.
It’s so disgusting, it’s really so disgusting.
It was even worse than the dishes he had cooked the first time as a teenager.
It's simply hard to swallow.
"Impossible, I didn't put any sugar in it!" No. 1 was stunned for a second, and then defended himself loudly.
At this time, the audience also shouted that it was unpalatable and too sweet. No. 1 frowned, reached into the pot to pick up some leftovers and put them into his mouth. His face twisted for a moment, and then he said with a sad face, "I mistook sugar for salt."
Jian Yan had seen many examples of people mistaking sugar for salt in novels from the original world, but she had never seen it in reality. However, Contestant No. 1 made her realize what it meant that art comes from life.
It turns out that some people really can't tell the difference between sugar and salt.
Shaking her head, she continued to taste the finished products of the remaining people. There were obviously many people at the scene, but no one spoke. They were all waiting for their comments.
After a moment, Jian Yan put down his spoon and smiled at No. 4. "You cook a lot at home, don't you? This crucian carp and tofu soup is delicious and mellow, with a smooth texture and a thick, lingering aftertaste. Your timing in controlling the fire and adding the ingredients is absolutely perfect, very good!"
Contestant No. 4 is a burly man with blond hair and black eyes. He is over two meters tall and has a very tough face. He looks fierce, but he looks a little shy when he smiles.
He whispered, “After eating Chef Jian’s Zerg Feast, I became interested in ingredients. I learned all the instructional videos you uploaded.
It's just not very good, but this crucian carp and tofu soup is my mother's favorite, so I've made it so often that I've gotten really good at it."
The audience began to murmur, "Number 4 is a sure thing, another great chef in the future of culinary art. Who knows which of Chef Jian and the others will take him in."
"Chef Jian, forget it. I have inside information. It is said that this time the Gourmet Association wants to absorb fresh blood into the culinary world. Chef Jian is not a member of the Gourmet Association.
So, I estimate that No. 4 will most likely join the Gourmet Association."
"That's not necessarily true. If Chef Jian takes a fancy to someone, President Zhong and the others wouldn't dare to stop him, right? You have to know that Chef Jian has taught President Zhong and the others. Even though they can't be considered a proper master and apprentice, they still have to keep their face. What do you think?"
