Chapter 247 Chapter 247
At the competition site, all ten groups of contestants’ dishes were displayed on the stage.
Delicious chicken, flowing water fairy, sticky Laduo, swimming dragon fish...
Almost every dish is a famous delicacy in the interstellar space, containing the heritage of five thousand years of interstellar history.
Each dish is exquisite and lifelike in appearance. The audience watching the live broadcast of the competition can tell how delicious these dishes are just by smelling them.
“Those who can make the top ten dishes that are full of depth are truly masters!”
"Not bad, not bad. Except for that cabbage, almost every dish is excellent. Congratulations to the Big White Rice Team for taking the last place!"
"Except for the one made by Zizi, every dish has a name! Masters, they are all masters!"
"I envy those who were chosen to vote for the food tasting! It's such a pity that I wasn't chosen!"
"To be honest, each group is very strong. I'm afraid that the youngest group in history is now just the youngest!"
"Let's wait and see! We will deal with those who slander the Dabaimi group! The cub must have something extraordinary!"
"There are still people who are still bragging about this! Just wait and see! If the Big White Rice Group wasn't ranked last, I would be doing a handstand on the livestream and eating Zerg poop!"
"How cruel, how cruel! I've memorized the ID of the person above!"
……
Mi Li had no idea what the audience in the live broadcast room were talking about. At this moment, they were also waiting for the top ten groups to be introduced one by one by Bai Pang.
"Master Nanhe is a very powerful chef from the Imperial Capital Interstellar Chef Association. Some people even traveled across the stars and wandered for several months to come to the Imperial Capital just to eat a meal cooked by him..."
"Zisangman, the son of the president of the Interstellar Chefs Association, is said to have obtained the Interstellar Top Chef Certificate at the age of ten. He is participating in the competition now just to add a layer of glory to himself!"
"Huan Hongxue, one of the top nobles in the empire, is from the Huan family, which is the top chef in the empire. It is said that their family recipes have a history of a thousand years! Their strength should not be underestimated!"
……
After Bai Pang introduced everything to Mi Li, Mi Li finally spoke up and asked with a curious look on her face,
"What about you? Brother Bai, their backgrounds and strengths are so impressive, does your family also have any handed-down recipes or something?"
Mi Li just asked casually, but she didn't expect Bai Pang to actually talk about his family.
"Our Bai family really has a history of a thousand years! Although the inheritance was interrupted for a period of time, even so, my father can teach countless dishes.
There is a hereditary problem in our family. Almost every adult will quickly become obese, like me! This is why we are the only one left in our family now!"
After Bai Pang finished speaking, he twisted his body slightly, and then continued,
"The dish about Miradoya that we made earlier was made by someone in our family!"
After hearing these introductions, Mi Li couldn't help but open her mouth slightly. Is this a tradition that is so long old?
These masters seem to have their own strengths and heritage! However, the recipes of these real famous dishes don’t seem to be widely circulated, which has led to a lot of recipe gaps.
"Brother Bai! That means I've found a powerful figure! That sounds really awesome!" Mi Li couldn't help but speak directly, saying with a smile.
Bai Pang scratched his head, then laughed and said,
"Little Paopao, you are very capable! We, the inheritors, are only concerned with keeping the old ways and have never thought about innovation. Little Paopao, I have never seen any of the dishes you make, so your future must be bright!"
When Mi Li heard Bai Pang say the word "innovation", her little ears couldn't help but move twice.
She is not innovating at all. These are all the wealth accumulated by her ancestors, and she is just replicating them now.
Mi Li waved her hands quickly and said,
"No, Brother Bai, the dishes I cook are not all my own creations. A large part of them are the experience accumulated by our ancestors. I just want to use my hands to carry them forward!"
Let Chinese cuisine spread throughout the universe, just thinking about it makes me happy! Mi Li thought to herself.
Bai Pang was a little puzzled and asked curiously,
"Ancestor? Little Bubble, do you also have a powerful family? Come on, let me hear which famous family it is!"
Mi Li: My family is from China, a country with a 5,000-year history and culture of food. Do you believe it?
However, Mi Li couldn't say anything this time, and could only vaguely say,
"Not really. I read a lot of it from books! I learned it from the Star Network. The Star Network is all-encompassing. Of course, there are also many things passed down by our ancestors!"
If she told everyone the sources of the dishes she made, everyone would treat her like a monster.
When Bai Pang heard what Mi Li said, he nodded seriously.
"Indeed, there is a lot of information in ancient books and the Star Network. I am just ignorant! But the dish you just made was really delicious. Can I find it on the Star Network?"
Bai Pang didn't ask Mi Li to teach him. The recipes of dishes are inherited, and many families are secretive about them. He had never heard of such a delicious dish, so he was a little curious. Was it learned on the Star Internet?
Mi Li frowned, held up her chin, and thought about how to organize her words.
"I didn't find this recipe on the Starnet. I got it from a fragment of a book on the mother planet. But it only has half of it. The rest is my own guess! By the way, its name is boiled cabbage. Doesn't the name sound ordinary? But the dish is extraordinary!
It is said that this is a famous dish developed by Huang Jinglin, a Sichuan cuisine chef in the Qing Dynasty 6,000 years ago when he was in the imperial kitchen of the Qing Palace. It deserves the title of state banquet dish at that time! And it still enjoys a high reputation in the following hundreds of years! "
Mi Li thought for a long time before coming up with this answer.
There's nothing wrong with it, it's indeed the recipe of the Earth's product, plus the corresponding ingredients she took out, this is a replica of boiled cabbage.
Bai Pang only heard Mi Li say words like "six thousand years" and "state banquet dish".
Listening to the impressive introduction, he actually felt that through the little man Mi Li, he saw the history of the famous dish from 6,000 years ago.
"This? Little Bubble, can you understand the language of our mother planet?" Fatty Bai couldn't help but ask.
Mi Li answered without thinking, "I can understand it! But I can only understand the characters of powerful countries like our home planet China. As for other small countries, I really can't understand it!"
At this time, Bai Pang: Shocked!!!
"Wow, wow, wow~ Little Bubble, you remind me all the time that I'm a waste!" Fatty Bai said with a sad face and a crying voice.
Mi Li: ...
"It's okay, it's okay! Brother Bai, at least you have great cooking skills!!!"
Not many people could hear the conversation between Mi Li and Bai Pang.
Because at this time all the audience in the live broadcast room had already gone to the evaluation site, and now only Mi Li and the others were left in the stadium.
As for the judges who were selected in advance, they naturally didn’t know what dishes each group would prepare, let alone the audience who were going to vote!
……
As the president of the Interstellar Association, Zi Sangya, one of the most important judges, had already prepared to have no contact with his son more than two months ago.
He doesn’t even know whether his son was selected or not, so he is still fair to others!
However, most people do not really believe this statement. Fortunately, there are many judges participating, and the audience in the live broadcast room are watching closely, so it is relatively fairer.
The first dish Zi Sangya ate was actually a dish prepared by Master Nanhe.
Liu Shui Fei Xian has a 500-year history. This dish has only appeared when the Empire entertained the Federal Prime Minister.
It looks like a spaceship traveling through time and space, and its original beauty is slowly revealed under the smoky ice dishes.
The various precious ingredients are matched in perfect proportions, and with the superb knife skills, each side dish looks lively and cute.
Zi Sangya had eaten such a dish before, so she was not surprised to eat it again this time.
The taste is perfect, but there is no innovation and it still tastes exactly the same as before.
After the gorgeous five flavors, there is endless emptiness and loneliness, so Zi Sangya was not very satisfied with such dishes, but still gave it a very high score.
At least it’s a perfectly replicated dish.
The next few dishes were all dishes he had tasted before, nothing new at all!!!
Until the two dishes were served in front of him at the same time.
"What's wrong with this combination? There are actually two dishes? Humph! This is not a place where quantity is the key!!!" Zi Sangya couldn't help but said directly.
As a chef with respect and love for food, seeing such opportunistic methods, Zi Sangya didn't even want to try and directly gave them the lowest score.
But considering fairness, Zi Sangya decided to do it.
"Let's see how much of your food is worth importing! Well! The Youlongyun fish dish is well made, but what is the other dish? A cabbage? This is too disrespectful!!!" Zi Sangya couldn't help muttering.
But out of fairness to the contestants, Zi Sangya still gritted her teeth and tried the Youlongyun fish first.
The appearance is perfect, the ingredients are well processed, the seasoning and soup base are very well improved!!!
As soon as Zi Sangya took the first bite, she gave the plump white and white Youlongyun fish a very high score in her mind.
It’s a pity that his knife skills are still a bit immature.
The big carp star beast of the Dragon Rhythm Fish is not flexible enough. Normally, the "fish" would dodge directly when the first chopsticks came down, but now it can do this! It's also very good!
Not too high, not too low. Zi Sangya gave this dish a medium-high score.
Looking at the other dish again, it looked like cabbage hearts soaked in boiled water. It looked too plain and simple in appearance. For a moment, he didn't have any good words to praise it.
But he still went through the process before eating.
Look first, smell second, taste third.
I sniffed the scent, which was refreshing and refined. When I carefully counted it, I found that there were quite a few ingredients mixed in the smell.
Blinking hard, Zi Sangya took another look at the dish. He was not mistaken, there were indeed a lot of ingredients in it.
He picked up a piece with chopsticks and looked at it carefully for a few seconds.
The cabbage heart is real cabbage heart, not something made by splicing together other things.
"Interesting!" Zi Sangya's curiosity was immediately aroused.
He had never seen such a dish before.
When you put it in your mouth, the delicious flavor hits you.
All kinds of ingredients burst in his mouth, bombarding his taste buds one after another. He could taste a different flavor in every bite. So many ingredients actually cooperated with each other to make such a dish reach a higher level of taste experience.
"It is like a lotus flower emerging from clear water, with a pure and light taste!"
Zi Sangya squinted her eyes, like a big cat that had received great satisfaction, and lazily revealed her furry belly under the sunlight.
Having tried so many dishes, I have to say that this highly innovative dish won his heart, and he didn't even want to miss the one that looked like water.
From the perspective of the audience in the live broadcast room, Zi Sangya's eating posture was enough to make a large group of people salivate.
"Am I seeing things? In the previous few dishes, President Sang never showed such an expression of enjoyment!"
"This is just an act! Is this how you eat a dish of pickled cabbage hearts? I don't believe it!"
"Aren't these two dishes a combination of white rice? It looks like President Zisang is enjoying the meal very much! It makes me want to try it too! I'm so curious!"
"No, no? Why do all the people here have such expressions? Is it really that delicious?"
"Oh my god! For a dish like this, these judges actually drank all the water! If only President Zisang did this, I could understand it! But all of them did this! I was shocked. Is it really that delicious?"
"It's the work of the Big White Rice Group. The so-called water soaking the cabbage heart is actually soup, but it looks like water. Slurp~ Look how much they enjoy eating it! It must be delicious!"
"I think this is impossible. Just based on the appearance, a dish like this cannot compare to others! Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
……
The audience watching the live broadcast were unable to eat the dishes and could only judge what kind of dishes were delicious by observing the judges' expressions while they ate.
However, it was the first time that a president like Zi Sangya showed such a satisfied look.
Audience members in the live broadcast room: President! Take it easy, the original form is about to be revealed!
Yes, President Zi Sangya is originally a descendant of the Yaya cat clan, so when everyone saw such a great judge at this time, they all thought of what the Yaya cat would look like when its original form was revealed.
Even though the audience in the live broadcast room were unconvinced, it seemed that the matter was probably a foregone conclusion!
Gu Bozhan, who was watching the whole process of making the white rice, felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when he saw the dish made from the rice grains.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember where he had seen it before!!!
((?????))
