Chapter 55

As time passed, the limited time finally came. After the clock ding-dong sounded, the two people below stopped their movements at the same time, looked at each other with wry smiles, and the winner or loser was naturally clear at a glance.

"Okay, since you've made many, now you two, each choose a lava cake that you think is the best, and bring it to the stage!"

Bai Feifei and his uncle Pan Jianguo smiled wryly after carefully choosing among the pile of cakes they had made, and nervously stepped onto the stage.

Seeing the two cakes, Liu Yifan pushed his black-rimmed glasses, and instead of getting the knife, he asked them both with his hands behind his back.

"Do you think these two cakes need to be compared?"

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, Cao Lin came out to smooth things over, hehe smiled.

"Uh... Although both of you failed this time, the winner or loser is still clear at a glance, Bai Feifei, although your cake does not have lava, at least you can restore the shape..."

Mengyun took a sip of what Pan Jianguo made and shook his head.

"Your piece of bread is completely underbaked. Not only is there a problem with the baking time, but you also have problems with many procedures when making the cake. It can be seen that you have never made this thing before."

Pan Jianguo nodded awkwardly, and Cao Lin clapped his hands.

"Okay, since the three of us judges have the same opinion, then the final one to be eliminated from 4 to 3 is Pan Jianguo! At the same time, we also congratulate Bai Feifei, who successfully advanced and won the last place among the top 3 in the country!"

Then Cao Lin said some nonsense without nutrition, and then continued to record under the director's signal.

At this moment, Bai Feng finally understood how the variety shows in his world were recorded. It seems that most of them were recorded a month or a few months in advance, and then sent back for editing and production.

While watching one episode a week on TV, in actual recording, two or more episodes can be recorded in one day.

Just like now, they are playing consecutive games on the spot, and after they are shown on TV later, they may be divided into 2 or 3 episodes a day.

"Okay, now let's continue the competition. This time the competition is still Western food. Those who advance two times ahead of schedule will directly compete for the championship and runner-up competition tomorrow!"

Liu Yifan nodded, slowly opened a tall conical metal bucket in front of him, and said.

"Today, the three of you, what you need to challenge is - a masterpiece in western food! Sepia puff tower!"

Cao Lin smiled and nodded.

"That's right, Sepia Puff Tower! In terms of difficulty, it can be said to be hell-level! What we are going to do today is still restoration, and there is still no teacher to demonstrate! Everything depends on you! The time limit is 2 hours! Now start!"

Bai Feng and Bai Feifei glanced at each other, and the two immediately collapsed, especially Bai Feng, who was embarrassed by the volcanic lava cake before, but unexpectedly followed by a more terrifying one.

She took a quick glance at the Sepia Puff Tower on the table, and her whole body turned petrified.

This cepe puff tower is at least one meter high and is composed of 108 small puffs. After the puffs are glued together, the silk is drawn outside to become a cepe puff tower.

Cao Lin asked while looking at the sipe puff pagoda made by Liu Yifan himself.

"Ms. Liu, please tell the audience friends, what are the difficulties in making si puff tower?"

Liu Yifan nodded and cleared his throat.

"The most difficult thing about this cepe puff tower is of course the demoulding. Because of time constraints, it is very likely that the demoulding will fail. As long as the demoulding fails, the work is basically a failure. Even if you want to do it again, it's too late, that is to say, although there are two hours, everyone has only one chance!"

Baifeng has gained a lot of experience in making cakes before, but now she is very confident in making puffs in the first stage, and as soon as the puffs are made, the system should also trigger the proficiency of the puff pastry.

She now preheats the oven to 190°C on the fan mode and lightly greases four trays in the oven.This step is very important. If there is no preheating or no butter, the puffs will be sent directly to the crematorium.

Then it's time to make the egg fluffy dough by pouring the butter, sugar, milk, salt, and water into a large saucepan and bringing to a boil.Take off the heat and quickly toss it with the flour with a wooden spoon.Return to heat while continuing to stir until even and non-stick.Continue heating and stirring for another one to two minutes.Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Pour into a blender and blend to release more heat.Add eggs one at a time, stirring evenly after each addition, until all eggs have been added and the mixture appears thick and glossy.Blend for several minutes, or until thickened.

Spoon half of the egg dough into a piping tube and wrap the remaining egg dough in plastic wrap.Using a piping cylinder, pipe the mixture onto a tray to form mounds 3 cm wide and 2 cm high, leaving 5 cm of space between each mound to prevent it from expanding when heated.This is the embryonic form of puffs!
Spread the beaten egg and milk onto the puffs that have been piled up.Place in the oven in batches and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until puffed up and golden brown.

The next step is the most important caramel making!
The caramel can't be boiled too thin, if it is too thin, the viscosity is not enough, and the puff tower will be easily poured out. To put it bluntly, the function of this caramel is similar to that of reinforced concrete in house construction.

After the finished puffs and caramel are OK, you can make puff towers at this time. First dip the puffs in caramel, and then slowly stuff them into the tower-shaped metal In the mold, when you stuff it for the first time, you must start stuffing from the inside first, because of the effect of caramel, these puffs will be completely solidified inside after being stuffed.

One at a time until full and wait to set.

Because the game time is limited, the three of them cannot wait until the natural cooling is released, and must be artificially cooled.

At this time, it depends on technology and luck. The previous efforts will see results after demoulding.

Cao Lin said with a smile.

"Hehe, it's really unexpected that Baifeng was the first one to complete it. She has already started cooling the mold with water! Oh? Zhao Linlin has also finished making it and started cooling it down!"

Baifeng held the mold about one meter in her arms, turned on the faucet and rinsed it back and forth slowly, trying to cool down the mold. It was still early, so she was not in a hurry.

And Zhao Linlin has obviously made it to this point. The rest of Bai Feifei is much slower. She baked puffs three times in a row, and they were all burnt when they came out. Obviously, she is still trying to find the best temperature for baking puffs. and time.

After 10 minutes, Baifeng began to try to remove the mold. She gently knocked the conical mold back and forth from top to bottom, but the puffs inside the mold did not move at all.

"Oh, it's a pity that Bai Feng's first demolition seems to have failed, let's take a look at Zhao Linlin's again, oh, she didn't get out of the mold either, it really is a palace-level work, the difficulty is extraordinary!
