Even if the lotus root is too broken to be picked up with chopsticks, they will still take a bite.

"No wonder they had to invite these people to be judges." Someone nearby sighed.

Once one person starts, others immediately echo his words.

Some people who had heard that Lu Qingci was "not simple" before coming here admired Lu Qingci even more.

-------------------------------------------------- -

Hearing the comments from people around him, Lu Qingci didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, Zhongli on the side looked at Lu Qingci who was being discussed but still remained calm and nodded secretly in his heart.

"Mr. Lu never seems to care what other people think of you."

"Isn't the same true for Mr. Zhongli?" Lu Qingci showed a gentle smile to the man beside him.

Even though their relationship has reached the level of close friends, they still prefer to address each other as 'sir'.

There is no sense of alienation caused by the word 'sir', but a different feeling.

Just like Lu Qingci is still used to calling Dadalia 'Gongzi' and is used to calling Gan Yu Miss Gan Yu.

Although the word 'miss' is ambiguous in some places, he doesn't think so.

He always believed that the word "Miss" connotes many wonderful things such as elegance, nobility, and good etiquette.

This is probably one of the reasons why Lu Qingci still calls Gan Yu Miss Gan Yu. As for why Gan Yu still calls himself Boss Lu... Lu Qingci can guess the reason.

Ms. Gan Yu is very shy and polite. If she is called by her first name, she may not be comfortable and feel impolite, but if she is called by one or two words in her name, she will be too shy to say it out.

The sudden shout of Master Mao in front of him brought Lu Qingci back from his thoughts.

From the soft and fragrant face with a faint blush, he pulled it back to the stir-fried meat slices with too much soy sauce in front of him.

"Please, please taste." There was a trace of fear on the face of the woman in front of her. The fear was not for the man in front of her, but because of the words of several people when they evaluated her.

Since the first round, Master Yan Fei, Xiang Ling, and Master Mao have spoken out about the problems they had suffered without mercy.

However, I have to say that although these chefs have been in this business for a short time, they have strong ability to withstand pressure and have a strong ability to withstand pressure.

Lu Qingci picked up the chopsticks in front of him and picked up a slice of fried meat on the plate in front of him.

The meat slices were cut into a very suitable thickness and even size. It can be seen that the person who cut the vegetables was very good with the knife and must have been trained.

The woman in front of me is Chef No. [-]. It is said that the restaurant has been open for about three months.

Lu Qingci recalled it carefully, as if he had met her a few months ago, and he probably decided to open a store after visiting him several times.

He didn't have a deep impression of this woman because he hadn't spoken to her a few times, but he could remember her face because of her eyes.

663

She would often look at herself the way Miss Ying'er looked at her, so much so that she often thought there were two Miss Ying'er in the room.

But no matter how good your knife skills are, you can still tell that there is too much soy sauce and dark soy sauce.

The color of the meat was a bit too dark, and the Jueyun pepper on the side was fried very soft. You could tell that the woman in front of you was catering to your own taste.

But Xiangling prefers crispier peppers. If she gets more points to cater to her own taste, it means she will lose some points in front of other people who like the taste...

"The heat is just right." Xiang Ling said suddenly.

Lu Qingci immediately looked over and saw that Xiangling was different from the food on his plate.

Not only are they different from Xiangling, but also Mr. Zhongli's, Yan Fei's, and Master Mao's are different.

Is it to cater to everyone's tastes and strictly control the heat?

She is really caring.

That means she didn't put too much soy sauce, but in the vegetarian dish just now, she noticed that she had picked a dark vegetable to taste, so she added a little more to the stir-fried meat slices this time. soy sauce.

After chewing the stir-fried meat slices in his mouth and swallowing them whole, Lu Qingci decided to give it a seven-point score because the spiciness was right and the maturity of the meat was right.

While Lu Qingci was writing down his scores, several other people also raised their signs.

Yan Fei gave it nine points, Master Mao gave it eight points, Xiang Ling gave it eight points, and Lu Qingci and Mr. Zhongli gave it seven points.

It was a crushing victory for someone who had barely exceeded six points just now, but the woman in front of him did not show much joy, but smiled and said: "I will continue to work hard."

After one round of tasting, there is no doubt that the woman has the highest score, but it is not complete, because the last round of desserts is next.

Many chefs who are good at cooking are not good at making desserts, so it is not impossible to stand out in the dessert section.

It can be seen that everyone started to work soon, probably deciding what to make for their desserts early in the morning.

"I feel like I'm almost full of water." Xiang Ling whispered, "But a few people are still very malleable.

No. 12, No. 13, No. [-], No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-]. They all have very good cooking skills, which are comparable to those of most ordinary restaurants.

If we make further progress, there will definitely be many repeat customers. "

“The opening time of the second and third stores seems to be shorter.”

"Yes, it seems to be more than two months on the [-]nd, and about three months on the [-]rd." Xiangling recalled the information in her mind and said, "But it is considered talented."

The conversation between the two did not affect anyone, and soon the aroma of dessert filled the room.

At this time, the people who had watched the competition all afternoon finally felt their stomachs rumbling a little, and their eyes were looking more eagerly among the dozen stoves to find out who made the dessert that was so fragrant. odor?

Even if the food is not good and the desserts are good, they can just buy the desserts!

Soon many people discovered that the aroma was coming from No. [-]'s stove, and the woman's busy figure attracted everyone's attention.

And the thing that gave off the rich aroma was not some unusual golden cuisine, but a very sparse and ordinary caramel pudding.

I saw the woman shaking the egg beater in her hand, stirring the egg yolks and white sugar evenly, then pouring the milk and whipped cream into the pot, and heating over low heat until bubbles form around the edges.

Slowly pour in the egg mixture, stirring as you pour, until evenly mixed.

The woman's flowing movements also made the others very comfortable. She was not as busy as No. [-], nor did she deliberately show off her movements like No. [-].

She has already baked some, so the aroma comes out, and now she has cooked some more. Could it be that she needs a second pot?

Lu Qingci also noticed the movements of the woman over there. Obviously one pot was enough, but she chose to bake it in two times, so Lu Qingci could probably guess that she wanted to cook it at two different temperatures.

After all, some people like caramel pudding to be sweeter, and some people like it to be burnt, but the heat is difficult to control, and the time between when the burnt aroma is really burnt is very short, so if you don't pay attention, Will do bad things.

Could it be that the woman wanted to give it a try?

-------------------------------------------------- ---

Qqun: 5436五9389 PS: Good evening fellow travelers, did you eat any delicious food today?

You are real livers, real livers!Why are you already at level [-] when I'm just over ten?I only have one gold, how come you have so many?I'm angry!Damn, damn!

Please vote, please give me blades, please give me rewards!

279-What's your name, Miss Three?If we meet again next time

It was just as Lu Qingci expected. After the woman in front of him took out the baked pudding, he put it aside smoothly, and then put in the next three puddings very rigorously.

The two baked before were obviously lighter in color, and the caramel color on them was light, as if mixed with a little coffee color.

You can tell it's slightly burnt, but still mostly sweet.

Wait until the next two puddings come out

664

After removing the pot, the woman put the five puddings together and remembered the order very strictly.

Lu Qingci was not the only one to notice the woman's unusual behavior. Naturally, several others also noticed it and speculated on what she wanted to do.

"What does she want to do?" Xiang Ling whispered to Lu Qingci beside her: "The roasting temperature is different."

"It should be that the caramel on the pudding is roasted to different degrees according to everyone's different tastes."

"She is really attentive." Xiang Ling said in surprise.

Although she has met this person, she has never eaten together. Can she guess the taste just by seeing them eating a few times by chance?

Or are you just guessing based on how much people ate when they tasted the food?

When it came to the tasting stage, as expected, two portions of the sweeter caramel pudding were given to the two girls, and three portions of the crispier ones were given to Masters Lu Qingci, Zhongli and Mao.

Everyone has different tastes. Xiang Ling Ye Yan Fei prefers sweet food, Master Mao doesn't care about sweetness as long as it tastes good, while Lu Qingci and Zhong Li like food that is not too sweet.

Lu Qingci picked up the spoon and tapped the caramel on it gently, and the caramel broke into pieces.

I scooped up a spoonful of pudding mixed with caramel, flicked it a few times in the spoon, and put the pudding in my mouth. The sweetness and the bitterness of the caramel combined, as if they were destined to be paired together.

The taste is very good and the texture is also very good.

There is no doubt that among a very sweet dessert, this one has just the right amount of sweetness to stand out.

There was another chef who made pudding like this woman, but that chef's cooking was a little mediocre.

The chef's pudding was not filtered well, so it was not completely smooth inside. There were a few bubbles and the taste was a little sweeter, but it was harmless and it was an edible pudding.

It was as good as a small restaurant, but not enough to win over this woman.

In the end, there is no doubt that this woman won. The total points of No. 2 were much less than this one.

Because this is a competition initiated by the chefs themselves, there is no reward even if you get No. 1. All you get is the recognition of the two strongest chefs in Liyue and the memory of the onlookers.

Half of the chefs present said on the spot that they were probably not qualified to be chefs and open restaurants. They laughed with Lu Qingci and laughed at themselves before leaving.

Seeing this, Lu Qingci said with relief, "The only path people can take is to be a chef."

Those people were stunned for a moment, and finally one of them said: "I, I think so."

After several chefs left, the remaining chefs were the chefs in front. Although they paid Master Mao, they still voluntarily stayed to help clean up the mess.

Although you are very careful when cooking, you still stain the stove and the floor.

At first, Master Mao said it was not necessary, but seeing how insistent they were, Master Mao couldn't shirk it, so he just said it was good.

"Do the judges also want to stay and help clean up?"

Lu Qingci, who was helping to move the table, suddenly heard a sound and raised his head to find that it was Miss No. [-] looking at him with a smile.

"Master Mao's shop is just like my own." Lu Qingci also gave the other party a gentle smile, "You guys have been busy all afternoon and helped clean up. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, it's our own choice." Miss No. [-] shook her head, and after a second she suddenly smiled and said, "You really treat your apprentice's father as a real elder."

"Master Mao is a very nice person and he treats me very well."

"Boss Lu is such a good person. As long as you treat you well, you will treat others well." Miss No. [-]'s eyes were a little warm, but then she said sadly: "You can see it, right?"

"What?" Lu Qingci glanced around calmly, making sure that no one was looking here because they were busy, and then he said again: "I don't understand what you mean."

"No." Miss No. [-] looked at Lu Qingci in disbelief, but lowered her voice and said, "I learned from my master, don't you blame me?"

She Qqun: 54三659389 The techniques for making pudding just now were all secretly learned from Lu Qingci. Even the deliberate control of the burnt degree of caramel was learned from Lu Qingci.

And the dishes I cook are more or less inspired by Lu Qingci and have some of Lu Qingci's techniques in them.

She didn't become a disciple, but she was indeed a thief who stole lessons.

I originally thought that the man in front of me would suddenly change his expression after seeing it?Or maybe he tears away his usually gentle appearance and curses at himself.

But she didn't expect that the other party not only saw it, but also wanted to help her fool her into pretending that she didn't know.

"Why should I blame you?" Lu Qingci said helplessly: "The day I set the kitchen to be an open kitchen, I never thought of hiding anything from anyone."

I also thought that there would definitely be people who wanted to learn his techniques, his steps, and his recipes, but that didn't matter.

"What did you say? It doesn't matter? How can this kind of thing not matter?" Miss No. [-] asked in confusion.

Although she didn't want to blackmail Lu Qingci's apprentice with the idea of ​​"stealing", she felt a little guilty in her heart. He should at least scold her a few times!

"The master teaches his disciples to retain some special skills for the time being, in order to prevent the apprentice from learning all the skills in the future and starving the master to death." Miss No. [-] said matter-of-factly: "Then wait until the apprentice becomes a master, and then

665

Leave one hand to his apprentice. "

"You also said that if we keep each other safe, I'm afraid there will be nothing to teach after a few generations." Lu Qingci said:

“In that case, even the most exquisite skills will be lost, and no matter how good the techniques are, they will be buried.
