Chapter 267 The Imminent Competition
Wash the shiitake mushrooms after soaking, squeeze out the water, remove the stalks and slice into slices.
Break the eggs into a bowl and break them up with chopsticks.
Wash and drain fresh chicken legs, chop into medium-sized pieces, add appropriate amount of cooking wine and soy sauce, stir evenly, and marinate aside for use.
Put the marinated chicken into the egg liquid bowl to hang the paste.
Turn on the fire, add peanut oil when the pan is hot.
When the oil is [-]% hot, put the chicken nuggets sticking with the egg liquid into the pot.
When the chicken pieces are fried until golden brown, drain the oil in a colander.
Leave a little base oil in the pot, add white granulated sugar and stir-fry the sugar color, then pour in the fried chicken pieces and stir-fry for a while.
Then add soy sauce, cooking wine, sweet noodle sauce, green onion, ginger, and minced garlic.
After the ingredients in the pot are stirred evenly, pour them into the casserole.
Then add an appropriate amount of water, bring to a boil on high heat, and skim off the foam.
Then add shiitake mushrooms and simmer over low heat.
In the process of stewing the fragrant chicken, He Bufan immediately started making the second dish.
Bang Bang Chicken, a special dish in Yuzhou City, is the best in the category of cold dishes in Sichuan cuisine.
Its unique taste is full of praise from those who have tasted it.
Rinse all kinds of spices such as star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon, etc. with water, then drain and set aside.
Pour oil into a cold pan, add the drained spices, and cook over low heat.
After the various spices are dry, put in two scallions.
When the white of the scallion turns yellow, remove the white of the scallion.
Cook for a while, and after the flavor of the spices comes out completely, turn off the heat and remove the spices.
Prepare a bowl, put the chili noodles, and then pour a part of the boiled oil into it,
After stirring evenly, add white sesame seeds, then pour in the remaining oil, stir well, and put it aside for later use.
Finely chop shallots, ginger and garlic, and clean fresh chicken.
Put the cleaned chicken into the pot, then add the spices and scallions that were taken out earlier, and cook in water together.
After the high heat boils, turn to medium heat and cook for half an hour.
After the chicken is cooked, take it out, let it cool and tear it into shreds, and keep the chicken soup for later use.
Take another bowl, put light soy sauce, pepper noodles, vinegar, peanuts, sugar, chicken essence, sesame oil, chili oil, minced green onion, ginger and garlic, and salt.
Stir the seasoning in the bowl evenly and pour over the shredded chicken.
Such a tasty and delicious chicken is complete!
And when He Bufan finished Bangbangji, Hua Jingshang's progress was similar to He Bufan's.
His hot dish, beer duck, is still being cooked.
And his cold dish is a crispy roast duck that is still being roasted!
He Bufan didn't look at Hua Jingshang's progress, just as Hua Jingshang didn't look at He Bufan's.
The rhythm of the two cooking was not disturbed by the outside world at all.
He Bufan started cooking the last soup after finishing the chicken.
After the freshly slaughtered native chicken is processed, wash and cut into pieces.
Blanch the cut chicken pieces under cold water, add green onions, ginger, and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell.
After the water in the pot is boiled, skim off the foam.
After the chicken is blanched, take it out and put it in another pot.
Add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat, cover and continue to simmer.
At this time, the fragrant chicken pot that was being cooked was almost ready.
So far, He Bufan has completed two dishes.
On the other side, Hua Jingshang also finished making his soup.
It's just that Hua Jingshang's crispy roast duck hasn't finished roasting yet, but he doesn't seem to panic at all.
The next time is the waiting time.
Delicious, sometimes it takes time to brew.
And time is constantly passing by.
An hour later, He Bufan's stewed chicken soup will be out of the pot.
The moment the lid was lifted, a strong aroma spread out.
Immediately, He Bufan added an appropriate amount of salt, a small handful of wolfberries, and a little chopped green onion to the pot.
After a little cooking for 2 minutes, this stewed chicken soup is out of the pot.
At this moment, He Bufan had finished his three dishes.
On the other side, Hua Jingshang also cooked his old duck soup.
After Hua Jingshang took the old duck soup out of the pot, he took out his crispy roast duck.
Taking advantage of the temperature of the roast duck, Hua Jingshang started slicing it.
After the crispy roast duck slices were ready, Hua Jingshang also finished his three dishes.
At this moment, there is still half an hour before the end of the game.
But because both of them finished their dishes, the host announced the end of the game under the signal of the supervisor.
Immediately afterwards, came the exciting judging session.
When the six dishes were brought to the judges' table, all the judges said with smiles on their faces,
"Today we old guys are lucky."
Immediately, the judges began to judge.
"This fragrant chicken stew is delicious and tender, and the overall taste is even more wonderful!"
"The chicken is smooth and springy, and the soup is delicious!"
"This chicken can be said to be ingenious, it is above the top grade, it should be unique!"
A group of judges gave a very high evaluation after tasting He Bufan's fragrant chicken pot.
Hua Jingshang's beer duck also brought an excellent taste feast to the judges.
After tasting the two hot dishes, the tasting of cold dishes began immediately.
It goes without saying that Hua Jingshang's crispy roast duck tastes great.
The crispy skin, delicate and delicious duck meat made all the judges call it wonderful.
Dip it in the special sauce to sublimate this delicacy even more.
And when it was He Bufan's turn to make the awesome chicken, all the judges fell silent.
Of course, it's not that He Bufan's dish is bad.
I just heard one of the judges say,
"A perfect Bangbang chicken needs to have all the tastes of numbness, spicy, sour, sweet, fresh, salty and fragrant!"
"And today, I finally tasted it!"
"..."
The bright red color of the chicken and the tender meat directly won the approval of all the judges.
So far, the tasting of these two dishes has been completed.
Immediately afterwards, the judges tasted two more soups.
After the soup tasting was completed, the judges stared wide-eyed, as if it was difficult to make a decision.
After seeing the performance of the judges, the audience also knew the intensity of the competition.
You know, in the first few competitions, after the judges tasted the dishes, they would basically have a bottom line in their minds.
After exchanging opinions with each other, the final result will come out.
But when it comes to this competition, it seems difficult for the judges to make a decision as quickly as in the previous competitions.
Of course, the judges cannot be blamed for this.
After all, both players in today's match are very strong.
While everyone was waiting for the verdict, the judges went backstage one after another.
Obviously, the judges held different opinions on the result of this competition.
But the audience is not in a hurry. In their view, the more difficult the result is to judge, the higher the level of the game.
The judges stayed in the backstage for more than ten minutes, and when they walked back to the judging table together, the results were actually announced.
Immediately afterwards, the supervisor sent by the headquarters of the Huaxia Chefs Association said,
"This game, why is the winner extraordinary!"
After the supervisor announced the result, there was a burst of warm cheers at the scene.
But soon after, supporters of Hua Jingshang expressed dissatisfaction.
And Hua Jingshang also seemed a little unbelievable.
The result of this direct judgment made him a little hard to accept.
But a competition is a competition, and no one can overturn the unanimous result given by the judges.
Because of this result, it was also approved by the supervisor.
Amidst the roaring voices of the audience, the supervisor walked to Hua Jingshang's side and whispered to him,
"Compared to He Bufan's dishes, your dishes are only missing one thing!"
"Your dishes can only be called tangible without spirit!"
"..."
Under the supervisor's explanation, Hua Jing still understood why she lost.
But at the same time, Hua Jingshang felt bitter in his heart.
He Bufan has already reached that level, so who else will be his opponent in this competition for the king of chefs!
After thinking it through in her mind, Hua Jingshang personally admitted defeat.
And his admitting defeat also blocked the mouths of the audience.
Because the chef himself admits defeat, it means that he is convinced to lose!
And so far, He Bufan has also won the fifth round.
He Bufan is only one step away from the final top ten competition.
At the same time, the fifth round of competitions in other regions also ended one after another.
So far, after five rounds of competition, there are still 672 players remaining in the 21 city divisions.
And these 21 are about to start the top ten competition.
And the competition system for the top ten is also very different from the previous five rounds!
But no matter what the final result is, these 21 people represent the peak strength of this year's Huaxia Chef King Competition.
Their names will be remembered by the Chinese culinary circle!
