V2.Chapter 5

I stumbled on you, if you fall down, don't implicate Mrs. Du.

It is true that Yan Ruyu could not involve Mrs. Du, but she would fall badly. Her instinctive reaction at a critical moment made Yan Ruyu choose to protect herself to the greatest extent possible. As a result, both of them fell, and she even threw the most carefully prepared altar by Mrs. Du. High-quality rose brine is reimbursed.

Yu Wan's movements were really concealed, so she said she didn't knock it over, then she really didn't knock it over.

If Yan Ruyu insisted on putting the dung pot on Yu Wan's head, it would be no different from the "unreasonable" people said.

Yan Ruyu suffered a dumb loss, the roses were gone, and her clothes were dirty, but she had nowhere to seek justice, so she had to hold back her anger, and took Mrs. Du back to the wing to change her clothes.

"Miss Du, do you still have the rose gravy you made in the house? I'll ask someone to fetch it immediately." After holding back her anger and changing her shirt, Yan Ruyu said to Mrs. Du.

Madam Du shook her head: "This jar is the only one that has been brewed."

Rose brine is not so easy to make. It requires freshly picked rose petals. However, the flowering period of roses is summer. altar.

"Then what should I do?" Yan Ruyu frowned. Although their rose brine was gone, and the Yu family's ingredients were also soaked in soup, they were not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case, losing a sharp weapon was not a good thing in battle, let alone Apart from the two of them, there is also a cook at Weiyuan Inn.

Weiyuan Inn does not have the relationship of the second prince to trust them. They are in the top three because of their excellent strength. She doesn't want to lose to the Yu family, so can she lose to other families?

Yan Ruyu said in annoyance, "The snipe and mussels are competing for the fisherman's profit. If so, wouldn't it be a cheap Weiyuan Inn?"

"Actually." Madam Du paused, as if she had made up her mind, "I still have one ingredient that I plan to keep for the showdown with Master."

Yan Ruyu's eyes lit up: "What is it? Does it have a better chance of winning than rose brine?"

Mrs. Du nodded: "It's the brine made by my master."

In this round, chefs are allowed to use their own ingredients, and there is no requirement that they must be made by themselves. For example, the stinky bean curd selected by the uncle is from Yu Wan’s craftsmanship. Therefore, Mrs. Du took out Bao Shenchu’s brine, in principle Nothing is impossible.

Yan Ruyu's worries and stagnation in her heart were all dispelled, and she said with a smile: "How can the things made by Bao Shen's chef can be compared by two folk chefs? Mrs. Du, this round of competition, we will win!"

In the simple wing room in the back row, the Yu family was at a loss. Bai Tang and shopkeeper Cui quickly rushed over when they heard the movement.

Everyone sat around a table and looked at each other.

"What should I do? You guys are saying something, do you need me to buy something?" Miss Bai said richly.

"It's allowed, but it's not mandatory." Yu Feng murmured, "I saw that they have added a few more ingredients, chicken, duck, fish and meat are all working together."

Bai Tang excitedly said: "It's better to use it than not to use it! Huh? Although the Qingfeng Pavilion has been eliminated, its spices are first-class, so why don't I buy some."

Yu Feng added: "No need, spices can also be prepared on the spot."

Bai Tang's face darkened.

Is it really okay to reject a woman over and over again?

"You two are fighting against each other, don't take advantage of Weiyuan Inn." Shopkeeper Cui said, "It's not a coincidence that you can go all the way to the present."

Everyone understands this truth, but the fermented bean curd is gone, and it is too late to go back to the village to get it.

Master Qin was stunned. He finally got to this step. Seeing that there is hope to break out of the siege, he was inadvertently causing the disaster to be caused by the ingredients. His heart is so painful!

"Actually..." Yu Wan said weakly, "I also brought the same ingredients."

"Milk bean curd?" Master Qin came to the spirit.

Yu Wan shook her head.

"Stinky tofu?" Bai Tang asked with wide eyes.

Yu Wan continued to shake her head.

"I see, your old man!"

The old brine is a good thing. It is the brine made from dozens of spices and stored for many days. The more the old brine is put, the more fragrant it is.

Of course, the Yu family has old brine, and the uncle made it himself, so there is no taste.

However, what Yu Wan brought over was not the old brine made by the uncle.

Yu Wan took out a jar.

Bai Tang couldn't wait to lift the lid of the altar, and a smell more terrible than stinky tofu floated out, and the whole room was stunned!

...

Today's final round of competition is destined to attract much attention. The founder of the five signature dishes met Mrs. Du. The two came from Tianxianglou, and it was an ethical drama in which "colleagues of the past" fought. Weiyuan Inn is unknown. The legendary dark horse chef is more bizarre than the two, but the plagiarism storm has not passed, and everyone still pays more attention to Chef Yu and Mrs. Du.

"Miss Du will definitely win." Someone said in the lobby.

"How do you know that she will win? Didn't she even drop roses?" It was Bai Tang who spoke, and she was rude when she choked.

A knowledgeable middle-aged man said: "Little girl, you don't know anything about it, Mrs. Du has used a trump card, that thing is a thousand times, a hundred times better than her rose brine!"

Bai Tang scoffed disdainfully: "It's a thousand times better? You don't brag like that!"

The middle-aged man was not angry, and said with emotion: "It is the brine brewed by Bao Shenchu ​​himself. It is said that it has been aged for decades. Even if Mrs. Du closes her eyes, it is impossible to lose."

"..." Bai Tang couldn't tell, because even she thought that the Yu family had no chance of winning.

...

This round is still for each chef to choose to cook a dish. During the cooking process, they can use their own ingredients. The ingredients are not limited to condiments, and it is not allowed to bring a pair of bear paws.

The three chefs all left the open-air stove and were assigned to a separate kitchen. The guests couldn't see them cooking, and they became more and more nervous, guessing what they were cooking.

"Do you smell it? It smells so good!"

said a guest on the second floor.

The old man on the side sniffed: "My old nose that has been out of work for many years also smells it."

"It's the aroma of old brine," said one of the eliminated cooks.

The old man was surprised: "Could it be that Mrs. Du is cooking? Did she really use Bao Shenchu's old stew?"

This braised incense is mouthwatering just by smelling it. I really don't know how delicious the dishes made from it are.

goo~

Everyone's stomach growled.

The entire Tianxianglou was occupied by this savory fragrance, and the royal chefs couldn't wait.

The kitchen of the Weiyuan Inn also had aroma wafting out, but it was covered by the aroma of the old brine before it dissipated.

The kitchen door of Zuixianlou was closed, and everyone didn't know what dishes they cooked, so they hid and tucked them away.

Soon, the first dish was served. It was a delicately arranged crispy duck. The sauce-colored skin was shiny and oily, exuding a crispy fragrance that made the index finger move. This duck was deep-fried, and the skin was Deep-fried until crispy, it locks the juice in the duck meat well. After eating it in one bite, the skin is crispy, and the oil under the skin is crispy, but the meat inside is so tender that the juice bursts out.

This layer of rich taste comes down, even the gods will be fascinated by it.

The frying time and heat are very important. Even if it is more than a minute, the juice in the meat will dry out, and the meat will be old and woody. The key to this dish is to preserve the juice of the duck to the greatest extent.

Brine is also very important. The aftertaste is long after the brine is finished.

In addition, this crispy duck is different from other crispy ducks in that it has a layer of honey on the skin, a slightly sweet taste, with crispy duck skin, and then served with fresh and juicy duck The fragrance of meat, braised incense and honey is intertwined between the lips and teeth, and it really makes the salty braised sweet.

"rare."

The four royal chefs gave a very high evaluation.

The second dish was presented with a traditional sauce-flavored elbow, which was bright in color and fragrant.

Another dish that has been brined, but different from the slightly sweet taste of the crispy duck, the taste of the sauce-flavored elbow is quite satisfactory, but it is surprising that every detail of it has been perfected, the meat skin is stewed softly, the plate When it moved, it was trembling, like crystal clear gelatin, and the meat was particularly tender, and it fell off the bones when the chopsticks caught it.

Not woody, not greasy, first fragrant and then spicy, but spicy but not dry.

"It seems to be old brine." An imperial chef said.

The companion said: "I heard that it is the old brine brewed by the rumored one."

"Really?" The royal chef showed a puzzled look.

To be able to kill all the way to the present, the cooking skills are really extraordinary, and the royal chefs are beginning to look forward to the third dish.

The third course was tightly covered, and the serving man covered his nose and mouth with cloth strips.

The royal chefs glanced at the man strangely, thinking whether we are sick, or are you sick?

The guy put the crock pot in the tray on the table, took a deep breath, and lifted the lid of the crock pot as if dead.

The royal chefs...the royal chefs were immediately smoked and fell from their chairs!
