Chapter 142 Glowing Shaomai! Advance to the Main Match (2 in 1)(2/3)
Li Wanqing was startled, and followed Lin Xiaolin's line of sight, only to see a young and beautiful girl wearing a peaked cap, looking left and right in the crowd.
She also clearly saw Li Wanqing and Lin Xiaolin. She was stunned for a moment, then moved away from the crowd, apologized in a low voice, and moved closer.
"Sister Xiaolin, sister Wanqing."
Jiang Yuenuan was surprised: "I didn't expect to see you two here!"
"I still feel strange. Why are you traveling all the way from the imperial capital to come here?" Lin Xiaolin asked curiously.
"Uncle Cheng also participated in the competition, so I came to take a look." Jiang Yuenuan said excitedly: "And if I have the opportunity to eat Master Miaoxi's vegetarian food this time, it will definitely be a worthwhile trip!"
Uncle Cheng, whose real name is Cheng Ankang, is the housekeeper who takes care of the Jiang family siblings and is also a breeder who is good at Shandong cuisine.
The Jiang family of the Yulong family is a large family that is world-famous as breeders.
This time, the Kitchen God Festival sent an invitation to the Jiang family, and the clan leader Jiang Xiangtian responded by sending his confidant butler to participate.
Li Wanqing suggested: "Since we have met, let's enter the venue together later."
"No, no." Jiang Yuenuan shook her head repeatedly, "I'll leave after a while."
Regarding Li Wanqing, the younger generation of the Jiang family has some psychological shadow.
Dare to take the initiative to say hello, this is a reflection of Jiang Yuenuan's big heart.
"Next, we invite one hundred public judges to enter the venue!"
At this time, Xia Sunian's voice sounded.
The staff lowered the cordon and hundreds of judges filed into the venue.
Jiang Yuenuan looked around and quickly found Uncle Cheng's stove, but saw a long queue in front of his stove.
"Please take the shredded yam."
Qilu is the birthplace of carrots, and as a master of Shandong cuisine, Cheng Ankang is quite good at carrots.
As a traditional famous dish among the carrot dishes, the shredded yam is persimmon yellow in color, can be pulled out into long strands, is crispy, sweet and fragrant, and has always been a famous dish on the table.
At the moment, Cheng Ankang handed a small portion of shredded yam to the eager tourists and said:
"If you think it tastes good, please put the broken silver on the stove. Thank you."
The tourist took a fork and picked up a piece of golden, crisp and tender shredded yam, stuffed it into his mouth, his eyes lit up, he nodded repeatedly, and then placed the broken silver on Cheng Ankang's stove.
Cheng Ankang counted the broken silver and found ten pieces in less than half an hour. He nodded slightly.
"The first person to be promoted has been selected, Master Cheng Ankang from the Imperial Capital!" the staff announced.
This statement obviously caused a stir among the players.
Jiang Yuenuan looked around, then stepped forward and said, "Uncle Cheng, I also want a piece of shredded yam!"
Butler Cheng was a little surprised when he saw Jiang Yuenuan, and then whispered:
"Miss, I just made ten servings. You'd better take the broken silver to other stalls."
Jiang Yuenuan pursed her lips and said, "Okay, then you have to remember to cook it for me when you get back!"
"Of course." Butler Cheng smiled.
Jiang Yuenuan had no choice but to continue looking for the food she wanted to eat and muttered:
"Master Miaoxi's place should also be limited to ten copies...it's too difficult to queue up!"
In less than a moment, more contestants were promoted one after another.
Chef Wu, a Sichuan cuisine master from Jindu, became the second contestant to advance with his red oil dumplings.
Moreover, his pot of dumplings served more than ten portions. Due to their delicious taste, he was recognized by the judges and gained more than twenty pieces of silver in one fell swoop, becoming the most eye-catching person in the venue.
There are fewer and fewer tickets to advance, which also gives other players a sense of urgency.
Chef Haiyue also chooses dumplings.
The dish he made is called "Kung Fu Soup Shrimp Dumplings". The slow-cooked Kung Fu soup is poured into a tea cup containing shrimp dumplings, and the shrimp dumplings are eaten with the slow-cooked soup.
The kung fu soup is fragrant and pleasant, and the shrimp dumplings are chewy and delicious.
Chef Haiyue even made three colors of shrimp dumplings, using dragon juice to make red dough, spinach juice to make green dough, and flour to make original color dough.
The three-color crystal shrimp dumplings are paired with Kung Fu soup, which perfectly demonstrates the fine workmanship, freshness and deliciousness of Cantonese cuisine. Therefore, Chef Haiyue became the third contestant to advance.
"The fourth person to advance is Ms. Zhen from the Glory Alliance!"
Xia Miao earned ten pieces of broken silver with her French-style baked snails and successfully advanced to the next level.
There were exclamations in the venue. Jiang Yuenuan followed the sound and saw the judges in front of Master Miaoxi's stove all exclaiming in admiration.
The delicacy made by Master Miaoxi is called "Fried Vegetarian Spring Rolls".
This fried spring roll is the representative vegetarian dish of the temple's famous vegetarian dish "Three Spring and One Lotus".
The raw materials are seasonal wild vegetables, combined with dried tofu, black bean juice, gluten soak and various seasonings. After frying, it is fragrant and crispy, leaving a fragrant taste on your lips and teeth.
The so-called "three springs and one lotus" refers to fried spring rolls, blanched spring buds, roasted spring mushrooms and white lotus soup. It originated from Wuzu Temple in Meishan and once attracted pilgrims.
After tasting this fried spring roll, the judges unanimously gave out silver pieces. Master Miaoxi successfully advanced to the main competition after collecting ten silver pieces.
After the five winners were decided, the schedule entered the second half.
There are fewer and fewer pieces of silver left in the hands of the judges, but the organizer has not yet announced the end of the competition, which means that there are still places for promotion.
Jiang Yuenuan walked around and tasted several stalls but found them unpalatable and did not give away the broken silver in his hand. Suddenly he noticed a deserted stall.
There are no helpers at this stall.
There is only one chef and a nine-section wolf busying around.
After seeing the chef's face clearly, Jiang Yuenuan said in surprise: "Luo He?"
Luo He glanced at it, then worked next to the steam stove, and said loudly: "Don't leave yet!"
Jiang Yuenuan: "Ah?"
"Give me another five minutes and the dishes will be ready."
Luo He coughed dryly and said: "I hope you taste the dishes and leave the broken silver before leaving."
Jiang Yuenuan was stunned for a moment, then gloated and said:
"I thought you had advanced a long time ago, but I didn't expect you haven't even prepared the dishes yet!"
Luo He was a little embarrassed, looked at the sky and said: "I work slowly and carefully."
In fact, this dish requires very thin dough, so it takes a long time to roll out the dough...
"Hmph, I do still have a tael of silver here."
Jiang Yuenuan played with the silver in her hand and said absently: "But I'm hungry. If I see which stove has cooked food, I'll just give the money to that house."
"Don't leave! I'll ask Xiaojiu to perform a backflip for you!" Luo He said.
Jiang Yuenuan said in shock: "Backflip?"
Luo He glanced at the steamer, made sure it was ready to be cooked, and said:
"Xiao Jiu, go to the stove and do a backflip to attract everyone!"
"Hey!"
It’s not easy to run a stall, so Xiaojiu is doing it.
Xiaojiu came to the stall, stood on two feet, and raised two palms high.
This scene attracted a lot of attention. Xiaojiu then did a backflip on the same spot, shocking everyone present!
The effect of attracting customers was obvious, and the remaining tourists in the venue rushed towards Luo He's booth.
In order to liven up the atmosphere, Luo He said loudly:
"We sincerely invite you all to taste the shaomai snacks made below——"
Luo He opened the steamer, and water mist curled up into the night sky. The steam in the steamer seemed to be sparkling with crystals, reflecting bright brilliance.
“[Crystal Glass Shaomai]!!”
Jiang Yuenuan was stunned for a moment, a little unbelievable.
This shaomai is shining?!
Blinking his eyes hard, Jiang Yuenuan looked surprised.
It's not an illusion.
The dough of this siomai is like transparent glass, it really shines under the action and refraction of heat!
Tourists everywhere looked shocked and talked about it one after another.
"Am I dazzled? Why do I see a shaomai glowing?"
"Did it rely on the moves of the pet beast?"
Jiang Yuenuan was the closest and asked, "Why is this Shaomai transparent?"
