When Zheng You saw that, Yuan Zhou had just picked up the pigeons and prepared to clean them again.
Even though the pigeons bought by the Chef's Association had been cleaned very well, they still couldn't reach the level required by Yuan Zhou. Therefore, Yuan Zhou had to clean them again by himself.
In other words, Yuan Zhou did that for all the ingredients.
After he got them, he cleaned them all and then drained them. Only when they were cleaned by himself could he feel at ease.
Other chefs who saw Yuan Zhou do that had different feelings in their hearts, but they all became more cautious when cooking.
After all, the attitude of Yuan Zhou in cooking was obvious. That made the chefs who heard that Yuan Zhou couldn't cook Guizhou Cuisine and Yun Cuisine a little nervous.
Nevertheless, Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan, who were watching at the side, didn't pay much attention to Yuan Zhou and just chatted with each other.
They didn't worry about Yuan Zhou at all and didn't need to watch him at all.
"Look at these two presidents. They are as shrewd as monkeys. None of them actually came." Zhang Yan looked at those chefs from Yun Province and Gui Province and said discontentedly.
"What do they come for? According to their thinking, if they win, they might offend me. But if they lose, it has nothing to do with them as a whole. That's the best of both worlds." Zhou Shijie said smilingly.
"They don't pay attention to their culinary skills every day. They only know how to do these things." Zhang Yan said resentfully.
"Nowadays, people are all impetuous. Putting aside the culinary talent, there are very few people who are as serious as Yuan about their attitude." Speaking of that, Zhou Shijie sighed.
"It's better to have fewer boring competitions and more sincere communication." Zhang Yan didn't avoid it. He directly reached out his hand and pointed at the chefs in the field except for Yuan Zhou.
Zhang Yan and Zhou Shijie were shrewd people. How could they not know what these people were thinking? If Yuan Zhou had not said that he would fight them personally, they would not have allowed these people to disturb Yuan Zhou.
Nowadays, the number of people who could calm down could be counted on one's fingers. Because of this, Zhou Shijie treated Yuan Zhou as his own junior and cared for him.
"I heard that Yuan only sleeps five hours a day and spends the rest of his time practicing cooking." Zhou Shijie sighed.
"Young people can bear it, but they still need to sleep more." Zhang Yan first affirmed Yuan Zhou's attitude and then said.
"I have already advised him about this. Yuan has his own ideas. It's better for him to try his best while he is still young. Maybe we can witness a miracle in the cooking world." Zhou Shijie said with a smile.
"Then I will take care of these chores," Zhang Yan said in a rare calm tone.
"Of course." Zhou Shijie nodded his head.
The two people talked and looked up at each other from time to time. Two hours passed very quickly.
Just when Yuan Zhou started to cook, the fragrance had already spread throughout the restaurant.
However, it wasn't the chefs who smelled the authentic fragrance, but the reporters who were suffering.
"It's so damn fragrant. I don't think I ate anything at noon."
"I have always heard that Boss Yuan cooks delicious dishes. Now I believe it."
"Hey Hey. You don't understand. It's nothing. I have been to Yuanzhou Shop. The dishes there are really fragrant." While saying that, the reporter wiped off his saliva and then raised the camera again.
"Stop talking. Just smell it. If I think about it, I'm afraid I can't help but rush up to eat it."
"Yeah. Just focus on the interview." After saying that, the reporter swallowed his saliva and stared at Yuan Zhou with an even more solemn expression.
"Peng". Yuan Zhou uncovered the lid of the Gastrodia Elata Mandarin Duck and Pigeon Soup. An exotic fragrance spread out slowly and then he said, "Time's up. I've finished."
"I've finished long ago. I was just waiting for you to say it." Zheng You also uncovered the lid of his own soup pot and then said.
"Have you finished all of them?" Gu Shan looked at Yuan Zhou suspiciously and asked.
"You don't have eyes. Can't you see for yourself?" Engineer Cheng said angrily.
Engineer Cheng was now unhappy because Yuan Zhou still didn't let him help in the kitchen. When he was blaming himself for his poor cooking skills, he directly retorted when he heard Yuan Zhou's words.
"I, Engineer Cheng, you …" Gu Shan instantly blushed with anger. He pointed at Engineer Cheng but didn't say anything.
"Okay. Please come and take it away." Yuan Zhou interrupted Engineer Cheng who was about to continue retorting. Then, Engineer Cheng immediately went over to Yuan Zhou.
And then, he pushed away the ceremonial girl who was supposed to serve the dishes.
"Let me do it." While saying that, Engineer Cheng began to carry the dishes to the table that had just been set in the middle.
Because it was an exchange, there was no judge. After the dishes were done, they would eat each other's dishes and then comment on them.
Therefore, when Engineer Cheng carried the dishes, he directly carried them to the other side while the other side's dishes were also placed in front of Yuan Zhou.
When Yuan Zhou and the remaining 12 people all returned to the table, the remaining people were stunned when they saw the dishes on the table.
First was Zheng You's Gastrodia Elata Mandarin Duck and Pigeon Soup. The appearance of the dish must be like two mandarin ducks playing in the water.
Zheng You's dish was still the same as before. There were two pigeons swimming in the clear water on a lake-shaped plate. The plate was decorated with carved lotus flowers and dark green lotus leaves. It looked extraordinarily beautiful. Of course, this beauty only existed when one was looking at Zheng You's dish alone.
That's right. When the dishes were placed, Engineer Cheng placed the same dishes opposite each other, which would make them more impactful and compare.
Compared with Yuan Zhou's dish, Zheng You's Mandarin Duck didn't look like a mandarin duck, but more like a featherless pheasant. It wasn't lively and the clear soup also looked turbid.
Even the lotus flowers decorated by Yuan Zhou seemed to be alive with the fragrance of lotus flowers, while Zheng You's dish looked like a fake one.
Then, Zheng You's face darkened. On the other side, Gu Shan was even more miserable. Two plates of Cloud Legs were placed together. One was like a cut rose while the other was like a wilted flower. There was no comparison at all.
"We seem to be using a pig's leg." Gu Shan gritted his teeth and muttered.
That's right. The Cloud Legs were prepared by the Chef's Alliance. In order to ensure fairness, even the leg was from a pig.
The 12 chefs looked at Yuan Zhou's dish and then looked at their own dish. All of a sudden, they all fell silent.
It was Yuan Zhou at the side who uttered indifferently, "Let's taste it."
After that, Yuan Zhou straightforwardly picked up the chopsticks and directly started to taste the dish without sitting down.
Yuan Zhou ate differently from others. There was no expression on his face and he ate quite seriously. Even if the dishes were obviously not as delicious as those cooked by himself, he still ate very seriously.
That was because Yuan Zhou had learned to respect food from his own rules.
On the other side, the chefs also picked up the chopsticks and started to eat with the extravagant hope that the dish might be just an embroidered pillow.
Only after the first mouthful of the dish entered their mouths, the expressions on these chefs' faces became complicated. Not only the appearance and fragrance of the dish, but the taste was even more delicious than the dishes cooked by the locals of Yun Province and Gui Province.
While eating, they couldn't help nodding and praising the delicacy inwardly. At the same time, they didn't forget to mutter that Yuan Zhou was too hypocritical.
After Head Chef Yang ate a few mouthfuls, he found that Yuan Zhou was still eating their dishes seriously. Instantly, he shouted with shame and anger, "Didn't you say that you didn't know how to cook Guizhou Cuisine and Yun Cuisine?"
Head Chef Yang was ashamed that his dish and Yuan Zhou's were not on the same level. What made him angry was that Yuan Zhou lied to him. Didn't he say that he didn't know how to cook them?
