I burn big seats in the countryside

Chapter 66
The judges stood up and looked at Li Yan, so that they could watch more carefully.

Li Yan was immersed in his own goosebumps.

I saw that Li Yan's hands were moving steadily, and he started to take the chicken wings.

Li Yan changed to a smaller knife, short and lean, with a very sharp blade.

Li Yan cut the joint between the chicken wing and the chicken body, then twisted the chicken wing very lightly, and quickly pulled out the big bone of the chicken wing.

Seeing Li Yan's easy operation, the five judges all looked at each other.

There seems to be a certain kind of insight conveyed between their eyes, and this kind of insight unifies the answers through the eyes.

Saying:

"Not bad, good knife skills."

"Few young people can reproduce this dish because the chicken skin is very difficult to get."

Everyone else nodded, agreeing with this point of view.

"Yes, this dish is a test of patience and care."

The judges were not very familiar with each other.

Because of Li Yan's dish, the topics between them instantly increased.

Li Yan took out the chicken wings, processed the parts of the chicken wings, and then peeled off the skin.

Let the chicken skin slowly tear off according to its own texture.

While pulling the chicken skin, Li Yan cut open the fascia connecting the chicken skin and the chicken with a knife to ensure the integrity of the chicken skin.

It was quickly finished, along the chicken body, to the chicken leg.

The chicken skin is like being undressed, and the chicken legs are taken out directly.

When it reaches the joint of the chicken butt vertebrae, cut it off directly with a knife.

In this way, a whole chicken skin is taken out.

Looking at the chicken Li Yan put on the plate, there was no hole in it from head to toe.

Several judges looked at the complete chicken skin, and the nerves on their faces were unbelievable.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan took the chicken skin an hour faster than they expected, and the judges were full of praise.

Said in amazement:
"This chicken skin is really beautiful."

"That's right, it's very complete. Looking at the shape, it's a vivid chicken again."

"Li Yan's knife skills are really good."

"Young people nowadays are really amazing."

Three and a half hours of preparatory work soon passed.

It's time for serving.

The host said:
"After three and a half hours of intense competition, the ten chefs finally completed all their dishes, and now it's time for tasting and scoring."

"Now let our staff bring Chef No. 1's dishes to the judges' seats."

Li Yan's 'Palace Babao Chicken' has been placed on a plate and covered.

People in the audience are saying:

"Li Yan's dishes are definitely No.1."

"No.1 for sure. When I saw Li Yan put it on the plate just now, the shape of the chicken was really beautiful."

"Not only does it look good, but it smells so good. If I could take a bite, I would be so satisfied."

"..."

Li Yan's dishes had already been placed on the dish-testing table.

The staff is planning to uncover Li Yan's dishes.

Judge No. 5 walked quickly to the table, stopped him quickly, and said:

"Let us lift the lid ourselves."

When the other judges heard this, they instantly understood what judge No. 5 was thinking.

Said:

"Such a perfect dish, this is the first appearance after it comes out of the pan, I am looking forward to it."

Because they are looking forward to watching to see if the chicken has deformed.

The ingenuity of this dish lies in the shape of the chicken.

If you only take out the skin, but don't fill in the stuffing, the appearance of the chicken will be deformed or sunken after it comes out of the pan.

So the judges had to 'unbox' themselves.

After speaking, the other judges stood up.

As he walked towards the tasting table, he said:

"Today, I witnessed the cooking methods of the royal court from the beginning to the end. Although I didn't see the details, these knife skills are already very rare."

"Yes, this dish has the best knife technique, and then the order of ingredients inside the chicken skin. Every scene should be carefully recorded. It's a pity that this is an imperial kitchen dish, and some details will not be shown at will."

After finishing speaking, I feel a little sorry, and I feel really sorry.

Another judge also smacked his mouth and said meaningfully:

"Of course, there are many details that will not be easily seen by others. Even if they are seen, it is useless to cook them in a different order. These dishes are so precious, which is the meaning of family inheritance."

After listening to the other judges, he quickly nodded and said in agreement:

"That's right, this is not an ordinary street stir-fry. Every successor of a family chef has his own set of recipes."

After saying this, the other four judges all smiled and nodded.

Judge No. 5 was looking forward to Li Yan's dishes, and couldn't wait to have a look at them, keeping his eyes on the plates on which the dishes were served.

Saying:

"That's the essence of it."

After finishing speaking, the five judges gathered around the dish, wanting to see how it looked after it was cooked and whether it was deformed.

Judge No. 3 looked at the other judges, and after confirming the opening, slowly lifted the lid.

The aroma that spread out instantly lingered in the noses of the judges, full of the delicious aroma of chicken.

The taste buds of the five judges have been deeply attracted by Li Yan's dish.

As expected of a palace recipe, the taste instantly conquers people's taste buds.

Looking at the appearance of this 'Palace Babao Chicken', it can be called a divine product.

Visually shocking, the tempting whole fat chicken on this plate, from the head to the chicken legs, to the chicken buttocks, is so perfect.

There is no hole in the chicken skin, and the chicken skin is supported by the stuffing inside, which looks very tight.

It attracted the eyes of the judges fiercely, and they were reluctant to move away from the chicken.

At this time, the audience next to the judges seat smelled the fragrance and said in surprise:
"It smells so good, it makes me hungry."

"The smell of this chicken is really fragrant, and the fragrance can float so far, it's so fragrant."

After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes, enjoying the appearance, and smelled the fragrance coming from him.

"Yes, the judges have all praised it. They are all chefs of big hotels. If they praise it so much, the chicken must taste delicious."

The chicken made by Li Yan has a complete skin and looks very springy and tender. With the filling inside, the chicken instantly plumps up.

People can't help but want to taste it quickly, but they are reluctant to cut this chicken, it is so beautiful.

At this time, judge No. 5 held back his saliva, and said in a tone of discussion with other chefs:
"Such a good imperial chef's recipe, let's cut it up and taste it while it's hot."

Judge No. 5 is asking for other people's opinions. After all, this dish is so exquisite.

Must seek everyone's unanimous consent before cutting.

After finishing speaking, the judges all looked at each other, said with smiles in their eyes:

"That's right, let's try it while it's hot."

The judges couldn't wait to eat this royal chef's dish.

After dividing, everyone ate the eight-treasure chicken on their own plates.

Just after the five judges finished eating, everyone's faces were filled with satisfied and happy expressions.

Although the audience in the audience didn't eat Li Yan's delicious food, they couldn't help drooling seeing the expressions of the judges enjoying themselves and the aroma of the imperial eight-treasure chicken.

At this time, one of the judges said:
"The imperial chef's dishes are really not ordinary dishes."

"This taste is very unusual. I have never eaten such a dish. It is full of fragrance."

The judges said their opinions and continued to eat with their hands.

"The chicken is crispy and soft, and the glutinous rice is soft, so delicious."

"This eight-treasure chicken is full of meaty aroma, especially the taste of adding salted egg yolk. It is very dense and perfectly matched. It is a very good dish."

"This taste is really good. One bite will leave a fragrance in your mouth."

Judge No. 3 was shocked and frightened when he ate Li Yan's dish. This dish was at least twice as delicious as his own.

Judge No. 3 just commented briefly on the aroma, other flavors and aromas, and could not make more comments. After all, he is also the heir of the royal chef, so he cannot elevate others or depress himself.

Seeing the enjoying expressions of the judges, the auditorium began to discuss:

"This fragrance has spread to me, it's really fragrant."

After finishing speaking, he smashed his mouth and wanted to take a bite of that chicken.

"Yes, I saw the intoxication of the judges, if only I could take a bite."

"This smell, just smelling it, whets the appetite. The judges are so happy to be able to eat such a delicious dish."

After tasting the first dish, the host went on to say:

"Next, ask the staff to serve Chef No. 2's dishes."
