Chapter 146 A bolt from the blue? Lin Xu’s ultimate comeback!(2/3)

It is too late to modify the rules.

We can only continue to compete like this.

In front of the stove.

Lin Xu poured one-third of the sugar into the pot with a normal expression, then added a bowl of water, put it on the stove and started to boil.

While it's boiling, use a spoon to stir it in the pot.

This can not only speed up the melting of the sugar, but also allow the sugar to heat evenly, preventing it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and causing lakes.

Soon, all the sugar in the pot melted.

Continue stirring.

When the surface of the sugar water in the pot turns slightly yellow and the sugar water becomes more and more viscous.

He turned off the fire and brought over a large empty pot.

Pour the boiled syrup in, place it on the ground and turn it quickly, using the centrifugal force of the rotation of the iron pot to quickly evaporate the water in the syrup.

"What is he doing?"

"Looks like making candy."

"Sugar?"

"Candy products such as kitchen sugar, candied scallions, and candied melons are all made this way."

"I know about these candies, but this is a food competition. Can you get high scores just by having candies?"

"That's enough!"

In the auditorium, listening to the whispers of those around her, Shen Jiayue hugged Dundun and almost cried.

Chen Yan comforted her and said:

"Okay, okay, my brother-in-law is so good, what if he can get through this round of competition?"

Geng Lele held her cheek and sighed.

When formulating the rules, grandpa asked her for her opinion, and she casually said that the players should choose the ingredients. Who knew that grandpa actually did this?

Sorry, Boss Lin!

The syrup in the iron pot quickly became thicker.

He felt that there was still a bit of moisture, so he put it aside and blew it with a fan. Then he picked up another pot, cleaned it and wiped off the powdery water on the surface, then poured the glutinous rice flour into it and put it on the stove to stir-fry over low heat.

What Lin Xu has to do now.

It was the perfect snack that was rewarded when making Shaqima - Dragon Beard Cake.

He plans to use the dragon beard cake as an embellishment to change the dish of baked pumpkin with egg yolk in a new way.

As for whether it can succeed.

He couldn't tell for sure.

Anyway, just try your best.

When making dragon beard cake.

The maltose can easily lower its temperature during repeated pulling, causing the sugar strands to break.

So we need to use hot glutinous rice flour to maintain the temperature.

During the pulling process, let the sugar strands continuously roll over the warm glutinous rice flour, which can not only maintain the temperature, but also prevent the sugar strands from sticking together.

After frying the glutinous rice flour.

He held the pot and poured it into a deeper tray.

Then he took out the maltose that was almost blown by the fan from the pot.

"Wow! Isn't he afraid of being burned? This sugar must be at least 60 or 70 degrees Celsius, right?"

"He's not afraid of being hot or cold. He looks like a veteran at cooking. It's a pity that he won't be able to see him in the next round of competition."

"It's really a pity."

"It's a pity, but isn't this the case for competitions?"

"Well, this is the charm of the game, it is always full of suspense and variables."

"..."

Lin Xu rolled the maltose in his hand into a long strip, then connected the two ends together and squeezed tightly.

Then carefully open the ring, expand it, and put it in glutinous rice flour for a while to coat the surface with glutinous rice flour, then twist it to form a figure 8 ring.

Finally, fold it in half again, grab both ends, stretch it out, and continue folding it in half.

By pulling repeatedly like this, the sugar strands became thinner and thinner, and the originally golden maltose turned white.

"Damn it! Is Boss Lin going to open it up?"

"Isn't this just dragon's beard cake as thin as hair? I bought a box at the scenic spot before and it tastes pretty good."

"Boss Lin hasn't given up yet!"

"He will definitely not give up. I hope there will be a miracle in this competition!"

"Come on, Boss Lin, we won't give up!"

"Ma Dan, keep posting and shouting to Boss Lin to cheer up!"

"I'll go too. If I don't do something, I'll always feel sorry for the ridicule before."

"..."

Don't look at the fans who always make fun of Lin Xu.

But at this moment, they really hope that Lin Xu can create a miracle.

No matter how amazing this miracle is.

As long as we can advance to the next round of competition.

Finally, Lin Xu pulled the maltose, which was originally golden and slightly hot, into a cluster of filaments thinner than hair.

After finishing all this.

He cut the dragon's beard cake into pieces, took a large bowl, and slowly poured the dragon's beard cake into it.

Place the bottom of the bowl first, then plate it up in circles, all the way to the mouth of the bowl, fold in the excess dragon beard cake, and set aside to cool.

Then he picked up the pumpkin he picked out earlier.

Peel first.

Then cut half of the pumpkin into strips of different lengths, and use a ball scooper to scoop the other half into round pumpkin balls.

After doing both of these things.

Heat oil in a pan.

After the oil is hot, put the pumpkin strips into the pot and fry until the skin becomes crispy.

Then add the pumpkin balls and fry them until the skin becomes crispy.

"Senior brother, what is Xu Bao doing?"

Shen Jiayue originally thought that Lin Xu could make egg yolk-baked pumpkin, but she worked for a long time making dragon beard cakes, and now she was frying pumpkin balls, and she couldn't understand what she was doing.

Xie Baomin was also a little surprised.

However, when I see my junior brother busy working in full swing, he will occasionally show a confident smile.

He said to Shen Jiayue:

"Maybe junior brother will make a new dish. Don't worry, brothers and sisters. He is so talented that he will never admit defeat."

"Yeah, I'm not worried. No matter where he ranks, he is still the king of food in my mind!"

Over there with the advisory group.

A group of old gentlemen were also stunned.

"Lao Gao, what is your apprentice doing?"

How could Uncle Gao know?

However, Lin Xu did not give up or feel sorry for himself, which made him very happy.

"No matter what he does, it's better than doing nothing, right? After all, he has no less ingredients than others. Although he doesn't have salt, others don't have sugar either."

Anyway, five ingredients for each person.

No more, no less, impartial.

In Uncle Gao's opinion, this is actually quite fair.

This competition tests the cooking skills of chefs under extreme conditions.
