"This is not the spring beans, but the beans from the transition between spring and summer. About one-third of them are from the transition between spring and summer." Yuan Zhou said his own judgment calmly.
"You are right, but I haven't finished." Chu Xiao turned his head and took a look at Yuan Zhou and then continued saying.
"The master in front has already said it, so I won't say anymore." Chu Xiao just glanced at Yuan Zhou lightly and didn't intend to say his name.
"This pot of bean sprouts has been handled by three people and all of them are girls. I suggest that women who touch food ingredients in the future don't wear perfume." Chu Xiao shrugged and then said.
He didn't feel uncomfortable at all because of Yuan Zhou's interruption just now. After all, he would directly correct others if they said something wrong. "Ok.
That's all. "Chu Xiao straightforwardly turned his head and went back to his seat.
He didn't think he was wrong at all.
Nevertheless, Yuan Zhou was murmuring the scents of several perfumes silently.
"Speaking of which, these perfumes definitely have names. It seems that I still know too little." Yuan Zhou knew the scents of these perfumes, but he couldn't say their names.
He made up his mind secretly and prepared to expand his knowledge when he went back. There was no harm in knowing more.
Yuan Zhou was the fourth person to go up, so he didn't go far.
"My luck is surprisingly very good today." Looking at the thing on the plate, Yuan Zhou sighed with emotion silently. It was another uncommon thing.
On the plate was a flower with two green leaves as a foil. It also looked very beautiful.
"Pearl Vegetable." Yuan Zhou said the name directly.
"This dish is indeed rare. We eat less of it nowadays." The chairman of China Chefs' Alliance stroked his goatee and said smilingly.
"Luckily, I have tried it once before. The taste is still fresh in my memory." The middle-aged man with the Ph.D. in Research of Rare Food Ingredients pushed his glasses up and said earnestly.
"Little Dong is really young. He dares to stuff anything into his mouth." The chairman of the alliance said smilingly.
"Exactly. I prefer the processed food. Otherwise, I want it to be extremely fresh." The gourmet was obviously a picky person.
"This vegetable is produced in Xin 'an, especially in the upper reaches of Xin' an River, which is the smoothest and most tender. It is a perennial herbaceous plant of the composite family. It likes warmth, and its leaves look like wild chrysanthemum, so it is called Artemisia alba. When it blooms, the flowers are small and white, and the color is like pearls, so it is called Pearl Vegetable."
Yuan Zhou was used to following the system's introduction, first explaining all the characteristics of the dish and so on.
"What's wrong with this guy? Isn't he a chef? Why does he behave like a botanist?" The chefs discussed in a low voice.
"Exactly. He's not Chu Xiao. How could he give a scientific name to a dish?" The chef knitted his brows and said discontentedly.
It was not that they were dissatisfied. If it was just Chu Xiao, they would still be able to accept it. After all, they were used to it. This fellow was like the wind, showing off, and they were used to being crushed. But why did it seem like another monster had appeared, casually giving a long-winded speech.
Wouldn't that make them seem incompetent?
However, before they finished complaining, Yuan Zhou started again.
"The one in front of us looks plump and beautiful, but it's not wild. It can only be grown naturally in Guangdong in this season. If it's transported here now, it won't be so fresh. Therefore, this dish is produced in a greenhouse in the suburbs. These several stalks should be the Pearl Vegetables planted in the middle of the greenhouse.
They have a strong fragrance. "" It's the most commonly used Chaozhou Cuisine. But I don't think it's necessary to grow it in the water next time. Otherwise, it will lose the earthy taste of the Pearl Vegetables. "Yuan Zhou said lightly.
"Damn it. They are all like dogs. No, even dogs aren't so awesome. Their noses aren't even human's," the chef looked at the mud on the roots of the Pearl Vegetables and said speechlessly.
It was all mud. He didn't know how to judge it was aquatic.
The chefs below the stage were all dumbfounded.
"Old man, you are finally not blind this time. It's not bad that you can see through such an obvious trap." Xing Min started a new round of ridicule.
"You saw through it?" Lee Yanyi asked back lightly.
"Of course. This old man has good eyesight." Xing Min retorted with a flushed face.
"Ho Ho." Lee Yanyi sneered with an ambiguous meaning.
"Old Lee, what do you mean? If you have the capability, let's compete with each other personally. Today, I will let you know that it was an accident that I lost that time!" Xing Min instantly exploded. He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go up.
However, Lee Yanyi just sat there quietly as if it had nothing to do with him. He looked at the rostrum and Yuan Zhou from time to time, but never looked at Xing Min.
His attitude instantly infuriated Xing Min. He immediately jumped up and said loudly.
"Great! How dare you look down on me? Old Lee, get up. Let's compete! "Seeing Lee Yanyi not look at him, Xing Min went up a few steps and intended to grab him.
"Teacher, teacher. Look. The result is out." The assistant was at a loss and could only point at the front desk to divert his attention.
It turned out that when the two old men quarreled, the first round of the competition had ended and they were announcing the candidates for the last precious food ingredient tomorrow.
"What's there to look at? That brat, Chu Xiao, is the best." Xing Min didn't even turn his head back and prepared to continue making trouble for Lee Yanyi.
"You have poor eyesight." Lee Yanyi took a look at Xing Min in disdain.
He completely revealed an indifferent manner.
"Old Lee, you'd better make it clear to me. Who's the one with poor eyesight?" Xing Min said ungracefully.
"Look at it yourself." This time, Lee Yanyi answered Xing Min mercifully. He pointed at the front desk and signaled him to look at it.
"Fine. It's my disciple who is the best." Xing Min muttered.
"A half-baked disciple." Lee Yanyi added another stab mercilessly.
"He's also a half-baked disciple of a genius." Xing Min didn't care about the adjective "half-baked" the most. It was the truth, but he was also very proud.
"Let's talk after the result." Lee Yanyi humphed.
There was a projector in the banquet hall which showed the result. Only three people could take part in the precious food ingredient competition tomorrow because the gap between them and the others was too big.
Chu Xiao: 148 (kinds)
Yuan Zhou: 148 (kinds)
Fang Tian: 63 (kinds)
The rest basically had about 20 to 30 kinds. The gap was too big. Therefore, the three judges chose the three people with the most. However, there was still a big difference among the three people.
"Are you the one who introduced Yuan Zhou to me?" Xing Min stared at Lee Yanyi.
"That's right. His performance is just so-so." A faint smile appeared on Lee Yanyi's solemn face and he said without paying for it.
"Keep showing off. I'm sure you won't be able to recognize many of the precious food ingredients tomorrow." Xing Min humphed and continued saying.
"It's a pity to follow you. Why don't you learn from me? I guarantee you'll be the next Chu Xiao." Xing Min said affirmatively.
"I'm sorry. I didn't take you as my master." Yuan Zhou suddenly said while passing by.
Then, the two old men looked at each other in dismay. He didn't have a master? Was he even more monstrous than Chu Xiao?
