Cooking that does not shine is not good cooking

But even so, the cake decorated with Akakubo peach spatula and blades, the surface is as smooth as marble, and then the almost perfect chocolate puree processed by it is poured.

The low-temperature tempered chocolate puree is much more viscous than it was at the beginning. The liquid flows down very slowly when poured, but after being spread by a spatula, it looks like a mirror and can reflect the lights in the venue.

This is the difference between tempered chocolate and untempered chocolate. What's more, the tempering technique used by Akakubo Peach and the chocolate puree she chose are both top-notch.

About five minutes later, one step faster than Xie Yunfei, Akakubo Tao served her work.

"...Please taste."

Holding her raging puppet, she buried her delicate face behind the puppet.She has already used her full strength, and ten fingers were temporarily bandaged by the medical staff at the venue. However, slightly different from the preliminaries, the judges of the knockout games don’t believe in tears. The four men and one woman in front of her are just In silence, a small piece of cake was cut with a fork. The few people did not rush to taste it, but inserted the small piece of cake and placed it in front of their eyes to examine it carefully.

Chapter 303 Promotion (Part 2)

The cut surface of the cake is very beautiful, the outermost chocolate layer, the middle cream layer, and the inner cake layer are distinct and straight, which makes many obsessive-compulsive disorders very comfortable.

"Quite solid basic skills."

"From the outside, it's very good."

"Thank you." Akakubo Momo nodded.She likes cute things, and among many dishes, all kinds of snacks are the most beautiful.If it were placed more than two months ago, Akakubo Momo might add the word'Western' in front of'Dim Sum', but now...

Shaking his head and throwing out the thoughts that had arisen in her mind, Momo Akakubo stretched out her hand and made a please gesture.

Unlike the situation in Tomotsuki, Akakubo Momo at this time put her posture very low.Among the sixteen contestants, his own cooking skills do not have the advantage, and it can even be said to be the countdown. It is impossible for Momo Akakubo to know this.

It is precisely because of this that she will learn the advanced cooking technique of'chocolate tempering at low temperature', which may reduce the life of her chef. Unfortunately, Akakubo Momo underestimated this technique, or she will be a low-star special The chef’s standard high-level cooking techniques are too simple.

After two days of study, Akakubo Momo thought that even if she had not thoroughly learned the'chocolate low temperature tempering', it was still enough to participate in the knockout rounds, but in the end, the tingling sensation from her fingers and palm reminded Momo Akkubo, she Failure was not lost to the young man not far behind, but to his own arrogance.

The chocolate cream cake that Akakubo Tao served did not shine on the surface, or the original light had already disappeared at this time.

I made a special dish by myself.

If it were placed at other times, Akakubo Momo would be very happy, but at this moment... thinking of Xie Yunfei as his opponent, and his cake noodle dough that was almost close to Luminous cuisine when he got out of the steamer, Akkubo Momo couldn't help but puff out her mouth. An expression of dissatisfaction.

The judges are not very interested, and think about it. Although Akakubo Tao served a special dessert, but in the venue where the special chef is like a cloud, her dish only barely reached the pass line.

"Very good taste." said one of the judges. "The chocolate puree extracted from the chocolate fountain, combined with the low-temperature tempering technique, is eaten in the mouth, as if it has taken the National People's Congress to a small island near the equator. While sipping a cold drink, while walking on the beach where ankles are covered by seawater."

The analogy of the judges puzzled many audiences in the venue, but the special chefs who knew the characteristics of the chocolate fountain showed such an expression at this time.

Chocolate fountain, as the name implies, is a natural landscape that can touch chocolate puree. It is different from the chocolate made by normal processing of cocoa beans. This kind of chocolate puree baked by geothermal or even magma, even after refrigeration , There is always a trace of anger hidden inside, ordinary people just taste a small sip, they will shed nosebleeds, it is one of the more difficult to tame ingredients among the many fantasy ingredients.

The low-temperature tempering method is like forcibly pouring a hint of coolness into the chocolate puree.Although coolness cannot neutralize the fire, it can also form a fragile balance. It is a cooking method often used when making chocolate puree dishes.

"It's a pity, the proficiency is not enough." said a special chef sitting in the audience. "That girl, it should have been less than a week to get this technique, or the technique was originally incomplete, even the most basic protection. I don’t know my own measures."

The other special chef sitting next to the special chef nodded, "The low temperature tempering...If you remember correctly, it seems to be born out of that Arhat Crystal Slasher, right? It's the chef's life. In exchange for improving the quality of cooking, although many cooks have added various protective measures to their original cooking methods, the most effective way is actually... well, the'qi' used by that boy."

The two special chefs seemed to know a lot of things, but they just murmured a few words softly, then shut their mouths again and fell silent.

The judges' side, the comments on the cooking continue.Perhaps to take care of Akakubo Momo’s emotions, several judges did not mention the shortcomings of this dish...It may not be accurate to say that there are no shortcomings to look for in the special cuisine, and at most it is similar to picking and eggs. "Finding the difference" like a bone pick.

Of course, if these "shortcomings" can be made up for, Akakubo Peach's cooking can be upgraded to another level, reaching the realm of luminous cooking.

Ideals are beautiful, but reality is often very skinny.

Not to mention luminous dishes, it is the chocolate cream cake that the judges are tasting and commenting on. If it weren't for the fantasy-grade chocolate puree, Akakubo Tao alone would not be able to make the finished product reach the special grade.

In contrast, not far behind Akakubo Tao, the last piece of cake that Jie Yunfei has completed in front of him is a work from another field.

The golden beam of light rose in vain, interrupting the five judges' comments on Akakubo Momo's cake. Everyone, including Momo Akokubo, turned their attention to understanding Yunfei.

On the kitchen table in front of the boy, there are more than a dozen or nearly twenty small plates. On each plate is placed a small mountain-like cake composed of the original cake embryo, chestnuts, cream, and pudding. The cake of the beam of light is slightly different, the other cakes have not yet finished the final decoration.

Xie Yunfei's movements were very fast. When everyone saw him coming, he had already finished making the second and third cakes. Then, just like the first cake, two beams of light rose into the sky.

The beam of light is like a substance, as if it can penetrate the ceiling of the venue, and it lasts longer than before. It took more than forty seconds to turn into countless scattered photons in the air, leaving only the layer on the surface of the cake. Enriched light.

——Luminous cuisine!

And it's a very well-finished luminous dish!

In the venue, all people related to the culinary industry, including those judges, including those special chefs who watched the game, and those contestants, with surprised or serious expressions on their faces, even those audience members, seeing the judges behave like this. As if they had come to understand something, all of them showed curiosity, wishing to replace the judges and take all the cakes on Xie Yunfei's table.

Xie Yunfei didn’t care about the atmosphere in the venue. After making the remaining cakes one by one, he called the staff and asked him to take out five of them and send them to the judges’ bench, while he himself took another one to Akakubo Tao’s before.

Chapter 304 Promotion (Lower Middle)

"Your share."

Xie Yunfei's expression was very calm, neither smiled nor dissatisfied.He just walked to Akakubo Momo and said in a voice that only two of them could hear.

Akakubo Momo did not answer, but the right hand that she slowly lifted up already explained everything.

Not only Akakubo Tao, but the five judges on the side also picked up the plate with the cake and brought it in front of him.

Unlike Momo Akakubo, who first made a round cake and then divided it into several pieces, the works presented by Xie Yunfei were actually more categorized towards small cakes.

The part where the cake touches the plate, that is, the base is a layer of cake slices with a thickness of less than one centimeter, and very clear brown baking marks can be seen on the edges. This cake slice seems to be the sponge in the three cakes made by Xie Yunfei. Although the cake is very soft like the other two cakes, it is slightly thicker in texture.

Above the sponge cake piece, there are countless nearly tetrahedral chestnuts that have been cut into equal sizes.Don't peel off the shell of the chestnut, the surface is light yellow, the texture is clear, and it also exudes a light chestnut fragrance.The arrangement of the chestnuts is very neat, looking from the top down, it looks like a perfect circle, but if you look closely, you will find that there are not no gaps between the chestnuts and the chestnuts, but most of these gaps are only one or two millimeters. It was smeared with white cream.

"Goooo--"

One of the judges couldn't bear it, and swallowed quietly. He forgot to wear a microphone on his collar. It was obvious that his swallowing sound rang from every corner of the venue.

However, the judge was also cheeky, with a flash of shame on his face, and then cracked his mouth and laughed, "Hahaha, this cake is really beautiful and delicious."

The other judges did not speak, but their faces also showed approval.

Above the chestnut layer, there is a small piece of cake slightly different from the base cake layer. The cake is also round, but the area of ​​the circle is nearly one-third smaller than that of the base cake, and the color is lighter. It seems to be Because the amount of egg yolk added is not much.

There are no baking marks around the cake slice, but it also looks very smooth and complete. The reason is no other reason. The whole cake slice, except for the lower layer that is in contact with the chestnuts and cream, the rest is covered by the pudding located above the cake slice. in.

The bottom of the pudding is wide and narrow at the top, and the surface is smooth, like a baby's skin. After the plate was picked up by everyone, the pudding swayed from side to side, but maybe there were still things above, and the swaying amplitude was not large, but Not small.

A timid audience watched the pudding displayed on the screen, and even closed their eyes with fear, as if the cake would instantly collapse due to the shaking of the pudding in the next second.

The concerns of these audiences are superfluous.

Needless to say, the softness and elasticity of the pudding are excellent, and the toughness in it is beyond many people's imagination.

A famous judge who did not believe in evil, shook the plate deliberately, wondering if there would be a problem with the cake.

And then...

The cake decorated by Xie Yunfei is like countless rocks from the ages to the present, let you beat it by wind and rain, I won't move.
