Chapter 871 The competition begins (additional update for leader AnJing AnJing!)
Although there was a small accident before the game, the game started smoothly and on time. This little accident directly caused Jiang Feng to look at Wang Hao in the second row first instead of the judges or the host. After confirming that Wang Hao was not in good spirits and nothing would happen after the banner was taken away, he breathed a sigh of relief and showed a thankful smile.
Chef Arnold, who has been paying attention to Jiang Feng:?
What did he mean by that smile just now? Does he look down on me?
"Good morning to all the viewers and friends who are watching our live broadcast online. This program is sponsored by Good Taste. All kitchenware, seasonings and ingredients used in this competition are provided by Good Taste. Buy Choose soy sauce that tastes good. Good-tasting soy sauce will give you a warm taste like home." The host read an advertisement as soon as he came on the stage, which reminded Jiang Feng of the words he read in the advertisement for Good-tasting soy sauce two years ago. A hundred painful times.
Jiang Feng couldn't help but shudder.
"Fengfeng, what's wrong with you? Did you not get a good rest last night?" Wu Minqi asked immediately.
Jiang Feng shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm just a little scared when I suddenly heard the advertisement for delicious soy sauce."
Wu Minqi:?
While the two were talking, the host briefly introduced the rules of the competition and the situation of the contestants on both sides at a very fast speed. The audience was very cooperative and responded with thunderous applause. Among them, two sisters, Jiang Junqing and Jiang Junlian, applauded particularly hard. Jiang Feng could hear the two sisters sitting in the first row shouting from the stage: "Brother, come on!"
In this case, Wang Hao didn't even add that Brother Feng was awesome. It can be seen that the education that Brother De and Brother Cheng had just now was very successful.
As the familiar countdown on the big screen begins, the finals of the Good Taste Sino-US Chef King Competition officially begin.
Everyone moved.
Chef Arnold and Jiang Feng were almost immediately in the ingredients section. They both had the same goal, whole chicken, pork bones, ham and a series of other ingredients that could be used to make soup stock.
There are many whole chicken ingredients in the food section, but there is only one whole chicken that is fat, big, and in excellent condition, especially suitable for making soup stock.
Put the one on top.
Jiang Feng and Chef Arnold fell in love with it almost at the same time.
The atmosphere instantly became anxious.
The voice of the commentator suddenly became louder. Mr. Wu, who was far away in Sichuan, was wearing reading glasses and squinting to watch the live broadcast of the game on his tablet. He pushed up the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose and listened carefully to the explanation.
"It can be seen that Chef Jiang Feng from Tai Feng Tower and Chef Arnold from the rooftop restaurant have taken a fancy to the top chicken at the same time. From the appearance of this chicken, we can see that it is indeed a very plump chicken and is very suitable for... Chicken stewed in soup. Okay, the camera just cut us a panoramic view. I can see the panoramic view just now. There's no better looking chicken on the shelf right now, and obviously there's going to be a foreseeable battle for it. Let's take a look at Chef Arnold's expression, well, his. The expression is very serious, and the camera is shown to Master Jiang Feng, and his expression is not very good..."
The host's rapid and eloquent words came out from the tablet, making people very worried whether he would be unable to breathe and pass away.
"What the hell, all the bells and whistles are nonsense." Mr. Wu decisively muted the sound.
Although Mr. Wu is very unhappy and the commentary is full of nonsense, but for many people who only have a certain degree of attention to this game but do not have much relevant knowledge, this wonderful nonsense commentary Still very attractive.
In order to make the more than ten hours of live broadcast less boring, the program team specially invited two professional commentators who are very good at talking nonsense to explain this destined to be boring cooking competition, just like a broadcast of a sports event, a Chinese commentator An English commentary is provided in two different commentary rooms without interfering with each other.
Jiang Feng glanced at Chef Arnold, and Chef Arnold also glanced at Jiang Feng.
Their eyes met, murderous intent suddenly appeared.
Jiang Feng moved and used the food-grabbing skills he had honed over the years at the New Year's Eve dinner table, and successfully took a whole chicken from Chef Arnold.
Three minutes later, Chef Arnold made a comeback in the ribs area.
Even before the dishes were served, or to be precise, even before they were put on the chopping board, the smell of gunpowder between the two parties was already at its highest point.
"The little boss is very skilled. I thought he couldn't grab the chicken just now." Zhang Weiyu, who was sitting in the third row, sighed with Sang Ming next to him.
In fact, he really didn't want to express emotion over such a simple and meaningless thing, mainly because if he didn't say something, he would be bored to death. There are too many remaining tickets for the show. Rows 1, 3 and some of the 2nd rows are all Taifeng employees. All the kitchen staff and some key staff in the lobby are all here today. It is obviously a holiday, but it is earlier than usual. It's still early, it's said to be team building but you can't play with your mobile phone.
Wang Xiulian has made it clear that the performance of this competition is directly linked to the annual performance. Anyone who dares to play with a mobile phone during the competition and is caught by her will have a year-end bonus of 200 deducted.
If anyone could see the movements of their hands through the stalwart figures of the Jiang family in the first row, they would find that Comrade Wang Xiulian is currently posting on WeChat Moments.
Compared with Jiang Feng and Chef Arnold's bloody fight for food, Wu Minqi and Luo Lan's selection of food seemed very dull, even a bit like moving bricks.
Wu Minqi and Sun Jikai dragged bags of mung beans, red beans, rice, millet, barley and other ingredients needed to make porridge out of the cooking table. Roland and his two temporary brothers brought flour, eggs, sugar Boxes of various ingredients needed to make cakes were placed on the kitchen table.
The tired people were sweating a lot before they started cooking. Those who knew they were here to compete, but those who didn't knew thought they were here to move bricks.
"Fengfeng, for the first five pots, should we cook preserved egg and lean meat porridge or eight-treasure porridge?" Wu Minqi has already started washing rice. It is not a small bucket of rice like cooking at home, but a big bucket of rice, like cooking pig food. A big bucket of rice.
The eyes of the entire audience were basically focused on Wu Minqi, because they knew very well that they could only eat what Wu Minqi cooked, and it had nothing to do with them no matter how delicious Jiang Feng's dishes were.
For a moment, Wu Minqi even felt that she was the real protagonist of today's game.
"Come in batches, cook preserved egg and lean meat porridge first, then eight-treasure porridge, then pumpkin porridge, vegetable and lean meat porridge, seafood porridge, the five kinds of porridge are almost done. Wait until the porridge is finished, and then we will see what else to make. "Jiang Feng had a plan in mind.
"Okay." Wu Minqi continued washing rice.
Sun Maocai and Sun Jikai were processing the materials needed for abalone and sea cucumber soup. Sun Maocai saw that Wu Minqi's workload was too heavy, so he asked Sun Jikai to help Wu Minqi. He could handle it by himself.
With Sun Jikai's help, Wu Minqi washed the rice and shredded the meat much faster.
Soon the first bucket of porridge was filled with water and started to cook under Jiang Feng's supervision and necessary operations.
On the other side, Chef Arnold is still processing the pork bones.
Chef Arnold also makes soup like Jiang Feng, but the soup he makes cannot be called broth. It should be said to be a thick soup made from pork bones and chicken. It also requires many more ingredients than Jiang Feng, and is relatively monotonous. A lot of it, basically all meat.
Various parts of pork, chicken, and a small amount of beef. Even the stew made by Chef Arnold is a bold and bold soup with a strong personal style.
While handling the ingredients, Chef Arnold also paid attention to the progress on the other side.
Jiang Feng's progress was almost the same as his, but the cake's progress was much behind that of the porridge.
Roland and the others are still making peace with each other.
"Shit!" Chef Arnold never expected that it would be these three losers who held him back.
"Can't you hurry up? It's so slow to make the noodles. Didn't you see that the porridge on the opposite side is already in the pot? Hurry up, speed up the progress!"
Roland:?
what's wrong with you?
shit!
"Okay." Roland silently increased the strength and speed of kneading the dough. (End of chapter)
