Chapter Thirty-One: A Comparison
"You are all chefs who don't give in to each other, so let's have a cooking showdown."
Aman's words caught Erniang and Xiang En off guard. Then he pointed at Qin Shou and Erniang respectively and said, "For you (Qin Shou) and you (Er Niang), let me, the high disciple Aman, who has been certified by Master Yuxian, use his tongue to strengthen your chef's soul and lead the way for the winners. How about it? Do you dare to accept it?"
Hearing this, Qin Shou smiled. If it was to be solved by cooking skills, it would be easier.
Similarly, the second mother is very confident in her cooking skills. She also smiles on her face when she hears this, and she looks like she is sure to win.
"I have no objection, it's totally acceptable."
“So I can.”
Neither of them had any objection, and Oman couldn't help but nodded and said, "It's great, so as to the topic..."
As he said that, Oman slowly turned around and his eyes fell on the lush green forest behind him.
"It's spring, let's make the theme from the bamboo sea in southern Sichuan. Even if the bamboo shoots are good, you must make a dish that fully displays the delicious bamboo shoots immediately. Those who can better show the flavor of bamboo shoots will be considered a victory, how about it?" Aman said as he looked at the bamboo shoots.
Bamboo shoots are the young buds of bamboo, also known as bamboo shoots.
Bamboo is a perennial evergreen plant of the order, and the edible part is a newborn, tender, and short and strong bud or whip. Bamboo is native to the Heavenly Kingdom, with many types, strong adaptability and wide distribution.
In the Celestial Empire, bamboo shoots have been regarded as "a treasure among vegetables" since ancient times. Traditional Chinese delicacies have a crisp flavor and a long history of consumption and cultivation.
Bamboo shoots are not special ingredients. On the contrary, they are very common in home-cooked ingredients, especially during this season, when they can be seen on the dining table.
"Bamboo shoots?" Qin Shou fell into deep thought.
As for Er Niang's face, there was still a smile on her face.
"The review time is noon tomorrow. You can use the kitchen and props at the mountain pass at will. If you understand, prepare it yourself." After Oman finished his explanation, he left, leaving two teams of people who were in deep thought on both sides.
Oman asked Qin Shou and Liu to have a duel, but there was naturally a reason for this.
On the one hand, he knew Liu Yi's strength, but on the other hand, he didn't know Qin Shou's strength.
Liu Yi also saw that Aman was intending to assess Qin Shou. He waved his right hand and drove the cloak behind his shoulders and said, "I'm leaving it to you, but don't embarrass us 'Dragon Chef'. I'll see what other ingredients are available besides bamboo shoots."
After Liu Yi left, Dudu came to Qin Shou to remind him, saying, "I think it's better to be careful because I think the 'mother yaksha' second wife is more difficult to deal with than Xiang En... We all know that 'Yezhangqing' Xiang En is a terrifying chef in the 'dark cuisine world'. Xiang En can focus on Er Niang..."
Qin Shou nodded, and of course he also felt that Er Niang's strength was definitely above Xiang En.
When fighting against the dark cuisine world back then, the "male yaksha" who is a member of the dark cuisine world has never appeared, which shows her means.
When Kaiyou poured water into Hubaoyi Cave, drowned many "Chefs" in the dark cuisine industry, but some chefs like Erniang escaped.
In fact, in addition to Erniang, there are still many chefs left in the dark cuisine industry so far.
There is also a saying from Er Niang - "The origin has not yet been cut off", what does this mean?
In the dark cuisine world, this is a group of vicious chef organizations that once tried to use cuisine to dominate the mainland people. Behind them, there is also an unknown "source".
If this is the case, this "source" is definitely stronger and terrifying than the "dark cuisine world" back then.
When Qin Shou thought of this, his face became solemn.
...
In the woods, Xiang En and Er Niang.
"Bamboo shoots... Although they are specialties from Sichuan, making them into main courses alone is still a relatively difficult ingredient."
Xiang En and Erniang each held the main building and straw in their hands, walking in the forest, and it didn't seem like they were looking for bamboo shoots.
Behind him, two minions were each carrying baskets.
"I'll leave the bamboo shoots to you, Xiang En." Er Niang said to Xiang En without looking back.
"Yes, sister!" Xiang En's face was smiling, but in his heart he was secretly scolding Qin Shou for being stupid.
Why?
Because Erniang's cooking skills are ranked among the top in the dark cuisine industry!
"Er Niang, where are we going? Aren't we going to find bamboo shoots?" One of the minions asked.
Erniang curled an unknown smile on her face and said mysteriously: "Go to a good place ~ a good place that can make bamboo shoots delicious."
"?"
The two minions were unclear, so they could only follow them.
The words are divided into two parts, Qin Shou and others
In order to get good bamboo shoots, Qin Shou took Dudu and Bai Rongrong to dig in the bamboo forest.
Because few people can enter Qingzhao Mountain, bamboo shoots are everywhere in the bamboo forest. Not only bamboo shoots, but also other wild ingredients.
But unfortunately, the only staple food that needs to be used is bamboo shoots.
Qin Shou picked up the hoe and dug up another bamboo shoot.
"This bamboo shoot is not bad, Rongrong continues." Qin Shou threw the bamboo shoots to Bai Rongrong.
Bai Rongrong put the bamboo shoots in the back basket and couldn't help but say: "The ingredients of bamboo shoots are not very distinctive. The whole piece is fiber, the taste is hard and has no taste. The shape of the cut is also very strange."
"Rongrong, you just don't understand the real deliciousness of bamboo shoots. Let the little boss make it for you to try later." Dudu said.
Because this area is full of bamboo forests, it is easy to find dry firewood. Soon Qin Shou found a lot of dry firewood and then the fire rose.
After the flames ignited, Qin Shou threw the two fresh bamboo shoots he had just found into the fire.
"Hey, do you want to cook bamboo shoots?" Bai Rongrong obviously had never seen bamboo shoots cook like this, which was very strange.
While rolling the bamboo shoots, Qin Shou put the charcoal brought from the kitchen on it and said, "Fresh bamboo shoots with soil are put into fire like this, and then they are turned from time to time to heat them evenly. If you want to eat the original bamboo shoots, you have to roast them like this. When the bamboo shoots can be inserted smoothly, take them out of the charcoal fire and let them cool."
After about 20 minutes of roasting, the bamboo shoots were almost the same, so Qin Shou took them out.
After leaving for a while, peel off the bamboo shoot shells. The moment you peel them, you can smell the fragrance of bamboo shoots.
