Chapter 595 Universe
In the end, the one with the lowest score in the third round was Chef Fan Yixin, who made coconut beef tart.
Fan Yixin had obviously reached her limit. Her hands were shaking when she was chopping vegetables. She also forgot to add black pepper twice, causing the taste of black pepper in the final product to overwhelm the coconut on top.
In the end, only 3 points were scored.
When Fan Yixin learned that she was eliminated, she was disappointed and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.
The audience also gave her warm applause.
Fan Yixin was relieved, but the remaining four people continued to fight.
After the fourth round started, the first thing Luo Junkang did was not to cook, but to turn on the faucet and wash his face.
I tried to cool down my overloaded brain in this way, and then I quickly thought about what to cook next.
To be honest, after cooking three coconut-themed dishes, he no longer wants to touch anything related to coconut.
But there is no other way. Since he has not been eliminated, he has to bite the bullet and continue to do it. Luo Junkang estimates that he will get coconut ptsd after the game.
Although he was thinking this, his hands were already busy again.
However, there was not much time left for him.
His cooking speed is not slow, but he is not good at this kind of time-limited creation, and he has made many detours in the previous rounds.
There are only 33 minutes left, so he is only slightly better than Ma Lu, and he is not preparing for the next step from the beginning like Sun Mei and Ma Lu.
He had a premonition that if he survived the last round, he would be sent away this round as well.
But out of respect for the competition system, Luo Junkang plans to struggle again.
But now it was obviously too late to make a dish according to the normal process.
Luo Junkang also had to take the wrong approach, and his eyes moved to the pile of scraps before.
But before he could take action, he saw that Ma Lu on the opposite side had already taken a picture of the timer.
So fast?
Luo Junkang took a breath. This round of competition started in less than 2 minutes, but the food was already ready. Is this still a human being?
Sun Mei followed suit and took a shot of the timer after only six minutes had passed.
Luo Junkang also finished cooking 10 minutes later, and finally it was Kawano Zhengming, who took a total of 19 minutes, only 1 minute later than Luo Junkang, and it was actually the longest.
The audience at the scene can feel that everyone is generally starting to speed up in this round, but it is useless to be fast, and they have to ensure that they do not fall behind.
Malu rarely took the first place. The staff brought his dish to the judges' table, and this time he even put a plate cover on the plate.
It also made the judges more and more curious about what was inside.
Gaggan Anand couldn't wait to open the lid and saw an egg inside.
Eh? The shape you agreed on.
Ever since Yoneda Hajime saw that Malu planned to adopt a dual theme and integrate the color, aroma, taste, shape, meaning and nourishment of Chinese food into his creation, several judges were secretly guessing what his next dish would be. come in shape.
Is it a show of knife skills, carving a Chinese dragon out of coconut? Or turn the paintings previously painted on the plate into 3D real scenes and present them? Or some other unique style.
In short, with the experience of the previous rounds, the judges are ready to be impacted again.
As a result, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. The answer was revealed. After discovering that it was just an ordinary egg, everyone felt like they had been scammed by telecommunications.
…………
No one spoke for half a minute.
After half a minute, Rocky Chen coughed twice. "Well... objectively speaking, the time is indeed a bit too tight. It is unrealistic to expect Chef Malu to put too much effort into the appearance. Let's try the taste first."
Olett Huppert also smoothed things over, saying, "The idea of dual themes was originally proposed by Chef Hajime Yoneda. Chef Malu has never admitted it, and we shouldn't put too much pressure on him."
That being said, it is inevitable that expectations and disappointments will be dashed.
Just when Rocky Chen was about to reach out for the egg, he heard Ma Lu suddenly say, "Wait a minute."
"Chef Malu, do you have anything else to say?"
"Wait a minute." Malu looked at the time on the traveler's bracelet, "This dish is time-limited, because the plates are served by the staff, so I deliberately left a little extra redundancy.
"Just wait another 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 seconds, okay, please use it slowly."
As Ma Lu said the last word, the ordinary white egg on everyone's plate actually changed and cracked a crack.
The gap got bigger and bigger, and finally split into two.
The contents of the egg were revealed.
The contents of each egg are actually different.
What was "born" in the egg of Indian chef Gaggan Anand was a strong ape with six arms and roaring up to the sky.
What appeared on Aulet Huppert's plate was a giant konjac with many faces.
Rocky Chen's is a mini ginseng.
Hajime Yoneda's is an apple tree that looks like a lead weight.
The four of them were stunned because the things on the plate were so lifelike that for a moment they almost thought they had hatched from eggs.
But soon, the four people realized that this was just food.
"Ice cream?"
Gaggan Anand put his face up and felt the coolness coming from the big monkey with six arms.
"Interesting, no, breathtaking! Does this dish have a name, or are you going to keep calling it coconut?"
"No, this dish is called "Universe"." Ma Lu said.
"Ah, by the way, I remember that the name of your restaurant seems to be Cosmic Infinite Canteen." Olet Huppert interjected.
"It seems that Chef Malu is an astronomy enthusiast, but I don't understand the relationship between this dish and the universe."
Hajime Yoneda was concerned about another thing.
"How did the eggshell crack on its own?"
When Ma Lu heard this, he answered him with something irrelevant, "We are in Sanya now."
"This is obvious, wait," Hajime Yoneda pondered for a while, "Do you want to say the temperature?"
"Yes, the eggshell itself is cracked, otherwise I wouldn't be able to put the dishes in. After that, I mixed some sauce with the same color as the eggshell, applied it on the cracks, and used freezing to seal the cracks. so that you can’t tell that the egg has been opened without looking carefully.”
Malu shrugged, "As for why the eggshell cracked on its own, it's because we are in Sanya. The temperature in Sanya is already high, and the eggshell is directly exposed to the outside.
"After taking it out of the refrigerator, it will heat up first. As long as you wait for a while, the ice at the joint will melt away, and then the eggshell will naturally crack under the action of gravity."
