The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 282 Selection (Part )

When they heard that the examiner this time was the Queen, a group of women became excited.

Everyone is gearing up and wanting to show off their talents.

There is only one thought, that is, if you can stay, you will be heard by heaven.

Queen Gao nodded to Cuihua and motioned for her to speak. Cuihua had no choice but to step forward:
"Thank you ladies for coming all the way to participate in the selection and assessment of the wives of the Daxia Women's Culinary Institute. This assessment is divided into three rounds. Each round will be scored by the Queen, me, and the female officer of the Shangshi Bureau. In three rounds After that, admissions are made from highest to lowest.

These three rounds of assessment are divided into two days, and today is the first round.

In the first round, everyone is asked to find your favorite ingredients in the big kitchen within two hours and prepare a specialty dish or pastry for us. I hope you can show your true skills and wish everyone good luck! "

The students entered the school early and now act as the fire girls for the future masters. They can control the heat according to the masters' cooking requirements.

More than eighty women filed into the large kitchen after Cuihua spoke. Two hours was enough.

Mi is also among this group of people.

From the moment she left for the capital, she had no other way out.

It was such an honor for her to have the Queen and the female official of the Shangshi Bureau serve as judges.

Yao was so excited that he couldn't help himself!

She didn't expect that because of her skill in making steamed buns, the prefect recommended her to the capital without taking a test.

It was so smooth that she still can't believe it.

Entering the big kitchen, everyone's eyes were bright.

Here, the tiles are attached from the stove to the floor, which looks clean and tidy.

They would be happy to cook in a kitchen like this every day.

There were baskets of ingredients, and everyone hurried forward, trying to find what they liked best.

Mi's family is considered young and strong among this group of people.

She actually saw among the ingredients, a whole duck with its hair removed and its internal organs removed, and a basketful of old ginger in the seasonings, and she immediately had a recipe in her mind.

I saw her picking up the duck and finding a casserole.

He gently asked the girl who was cooking the fire to light the water on the large stove and quickly cut the duck meat into pieces and blanch it.

Mrs. Yao was also very satisfied with the gray noodles in the big kitchen. In order to make it easier for the master who made pasta to make dough, the big kitchen also provided old dough.

The introduction to using old dough to make dough is a common way for people in Daxia who don’t have yeast powder to make pasta.

Yao found it in the big kitchen: pork suet, white sugar, walnut kernels, and sesame seeds.

She plans to make her specialty bag: crystal oil bag.

Empress Gao drank tea and chatted with Aunt Qiu with a smile: "Auntie, you have only been in Uncle Zhongqin's house for a few years, but you have gained a lot of weight!"

Aunt Qiu narrowed her eyes: "Thanks to you! We old sisters have been eating well and living in peace of mind in the uncle's house in the past few years. We originally thought about taking care of ourselves in old age, but we still have time to use our remaining energy. ,Thanks to the master for not considering us too old."

"Aunt Qiu, how much you and the other nuns have helped me in the past few years! My little nieces are now proper little ladies when they go out.

As for the girls and boys in our house, who wouldn’t say that the rules in our house are good? It’s because of my mother-in-law’s blessing and the help of you ladies! "

Empress Gao was overjoyed: "Look at the intimacy between your master and servant, it's all thanks to this palace after all!"

"Hey, we are all enjoying the cool under your big tree!"

The three of them were drinking tea and chatting, which was very lively.

In less than two hours, people were serving dishes one after another.

Each plate is numbered, so the food goes in but the people don't. An expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action.

These dishes, from the knife skills to the presentation, the color of the dishes and the aroma, all indicate that this is a delicious dish.

The variety of snacks and pasta was so varied that even the Queen was amazed.

The three people will rate each dish after tasting it, with a perfect score of ten.

When one end of Mi's Ginger Duck came out, its caramel color and thick and rich fragrance made everyone's eyes light up.

The duck meat has a rich caramel aroma, is warm and delicious:
It combines the aroma of duck fat and sesame oil. The fishy smell of duck meat is swept away by the ginger mother, leaving only the mellow and fresh aroma.

The spiciness of the ginger has completely disappeared, soaked in the mellowness of the duck meat, leaving only the chewy texture and slight sweetness.

The three of them couldn't help but eat several pieces, and they all gave it a perfect score.

Yao's crystal oil bag was the last to be brought out.

Crystal oil packets must be eaten when they are steaming hot. When you take a bite, you can see the transparent oil inside splashing out, which will burn your tongue when you eat it.

When I looked at it, I saw that the melted sugar was vaguely mixed with red and green colors.

If you taste it carefully, it tastes like orange peel and green radish peel.

Now my mouth is full of oil, and my lips and teeth are fragrant.

Take another bite and the excess oil in the filling will slowly penetrate into the dough layer during the steaming process, making it even more irresistible.

The taste is greasy but not greasy, the sweetness is just right, and the aftertaste is endless.

Queen Gao, who had not eaten such greasy food for a long time, couldn't help but finish a whole crystal oil bun.

That night, these ladies who participated in the assessment were arranged to live in the college's dormitory.

There is one room for one person. Although the area is not spacious, it is better than having all the necessary facilities.

Mi was lying on the kang, still reviewing the day's experiences in her mind.

She is very confident in her skills and is just waiting for the final two rounds tomorrow to decide the outcome.

Yao lived next door to Mi and was tossed and turned.

There were about thirty noodle chefs today, and she saw a lot of outstanding ones when she was steaming the buns.

She was full of confidence when she came, but after experiencing the first game, she realized that there were many talented people, and a noodle dish that was famous in the small Ningjiang Prefecture was really not enough now.

For the assessment on the second day, Queen Gao not only came by herself, but also brought out Princess Jingyao and the fifth prince.

Princess Jingyao still pouted her little lips and said to Cuihua: "Mrs. Uncle, my mother said yesterday that she had eaten a lot of delicious dishes. Today I will also be a judge!"

Cuihua smiled and said, "Of course you can. We need Princess Hard-working to help us taste the food!"

The two siblings were very happy and touched their bellies. It was obvious that they were not full after breakfast.

After a night's rest, some people were refreshed and some had black eye sockets. Finally, they all showed up at the gathering place on time.

Cuihua nodded to the ladies: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone, it's the second round today. I have eighty-five picks in this bucket, thirty-five of them are for the Pastry Master, and the rest are local cuisines. Each pick has Vegetables, vegetables or rice noodles, please make reasonable use of the ingredients. The time is still two hours, and the time will start after the ingredients are drawn. "

This second round makes everyone a little uneasy. The unknown represents a lot of uncertainty.

Mi anxiously took out a stick that she liked, took the stick and went to the big kitchen to get the ingredients.

She was quite lucky today and got a piece of tofu, half a catty each of pork and fish.
