Professionals appreciate the craft, amateurs enjoy the spectacle.
Even though only a few people could roughly understand Wei Zhong’s recipe, it didn’t stop the regular audience from admiring his culinary skills.
Wei Zhong’s cooking skills are honed over more than thirty years, much like his age, just like the experiences and accumulations he has gathered, smoothing the sharpness of a young celebrity chef, resulting in a more restrained, grand but unpretentious style.
From cutting ingredients, to frying rice, making stead at powder, and now coating atballs, fish slices, and pumpkin pieces with the powder.
Rolling, dipping, flipping.
Step by step, it is understated luxury.
The cara always focuses on the pair of detail-rich hands of Wei Zhong, it’s these hands, like holding a conductor’s baton, guiding the audience’s excitent and chaos.
"Almost there!"
Wei Zhong’s gaze slightly narrowed, sweeping over the three plates on the table.
"atballs, rolled in a stead at powder dominated by red cardamom, this is what’s known as red at with red powder, once stead, it’s fragrant without being greasy, leaving a lasting impression!"
"The yellow catfish fillet, sprinkled with a stead at powder centered on white pepper, is white at with white powder. The spiciness of the pepper will cleanly wipe out the muddy taste of freshwater fish, enhancing the freshness of the at, similar to mustard and wasabi paste!"
"Pumpkin pieces, paired with the original recipe stead at powder, represent the highest essence of the ’Mianyang Three Steams’ culinary technique. Ah, my initial concept of creating this recipe was to integrate the representative dish Taiji Stead Double Vegetables, but now, I’ve only managed to blend in pumpkin, stead pumpkin, still lacking a stead asparagus lettuce! It’s a sha!"
A regret expressed in his heart.
Yet, the satisfied smile at the corner of Wei Zhong’s mouth clearly indicated that he couldn’t be prouder of this recipe masterpiece.
"Hmph!"
"I combined ’Mianyang Three Steams’, stead fish, stead at, stead vegetables, the true tri-steam fusion!"
"With these three steams as one, neither totally a noodle nor purely a faceoff, they will open a new era and beco the new classic of Jing Chu cuisine, how can you compete with ?!"
Thinking of this, Wei Zhong deliberately slowed down his cooking pace at this step, taking the opportunity to glance at the other open kitchen across the stage, "What might his recipe be..."
As Wei Zhong’s gaze was still shifting, a gust of inexplicable wind blew in with a whoosh.
The opposite open kitchen was shrouded in a layer of black clouds over the cooking station!
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Xia Yu was the one holding a rod casting out the black clouds.
The specially cleaned "Soul Suppressing Stick," in Xia Yu’s hand, seed to transform into a dark dragon exhaling black clouds!
It’s not just about the shadows of the black rod intertwining to form ’black clouds’.
Along with the rod shadows, there was also a series of crisp knocking sounds!
"Dong, dong, dong..."
Intense and clear!
From Wei Zhong’s perspective, the black snake shadows swiftly striking the cooking station appear as if the dragon’s tail was whipped out from the black clouds, mighty and powerful, a mysterious oppressive force spreading out, with a palpitation that makes it hard to look directly at.
Wei Zhong’s pupils constricted sharply, "Such familiar pastry skills!"
"Oh, oh, oh!"
In the livestream, Tang Yuqiong excitedly exclaid, "It’s here, it’s here, it’s appeared!"
"Everyone rembers this cooking skill, right?"
Barrage chatting frantically, a thick layer, "In the Sapporo competition, the Great Demon King used this cooking skill and defeated our Tang’s Mingzhu!"
"I rember the little sister cried and retreated in defeat at that ti."
Tang Yuqiong’s face turned black, "Just talk about the cooking skill, can you not ntion the outco of that ti!"
"I told you so!"
Lifting a cheerful smile at the corner of her lips, Tang Yuqiong’s eyes glistened like diamonds, "Even if the topic is pastry, and his opponent is a Reserve Pastry King... he might not necessarily lose!"
Watching fixedly at the screen, the boy casting a stretch of black shadows with the rod, while behind the boy, Tang Yuqiong seed to see two predecessors: a hunched old man and a robust middle-aged man standing with a rod, both looking on with gratification, quietly observing the boy spreading a soul-stirring brilliance with his own recipes and cooking skills!
It is the forr Pastry King Logan!
And Master Steel Rod!
"He is never fighting alone!" Tang Yuqiong couldn’t help but exclaim.
"It’s different now!"
Below the stage, Ye Feizhou opened his eyes wide in shock.
Having studied Xia Yu’s past cooking videos thoroughly, with a deep understanding of Xia Yu’s skills, this ancient culinary technique called ’White Luo Snake Refining’, recorded and docunted in the White Jade Tower’s Book Collection Pavilion, but ultimately so remnant fragnts, without all the advanced texts.
Ye Feizhou could tell that compared to the cooking skills in the competition video from the previous year, the one Xia Yu was now wielding with the rod seed like a different craft, the montum, the charm was entirely different!
Sitting in the chair, the wind blowing against his face, Ye Feizhou tightened his body, as taut as a drawn bow.
This was an instinctive physical reaction.
And his breathing, with his mouth opening and closing, Ye Feizhou felt the lant and heaviness of his heart, secretly amazed, "Such an atmosphere, the great terror, Master Huang, Master Wei, and Master Kong, when serious, the aura of the Dragon Chef may just be like this!"
Atmosphere!
Not only Ye Feizhou, the mbers in the guest area were likewise like being glued to the chairs, unable to move.
Judges’ seats.
Duan Hong, Wang Qian swallowed nervously, exchanging glances.
In each other’s eyes, they found a psychological fear, a fear of the ’montum’ of the strong, needing no further display of skills, rely with such ’montum’, both Lin Chefs felt that if they were in Wei Zhong’s place, the defeated would definitely be them! No power to resist!
"His mouth is moving?" Old Grand Duke Liu suddenly spoke.
The judges were stunned, looking at the broadcast screen, indeed, the boy’s face, enlarged on the screen, had subtle movents, as if he was counting?
"Four hundred ninety-six, four hundred ninety-seven, four hundred ninety-eight, four hundred ninety-nine..."
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Each ti the black rod pounded on the dough on the cooking station, a number softly escaped Xia Yu’s lips, the boy completely imrsed in his own world, treating the external environnt like air, his eyes fixed intently on the dough, seeming to have a thin layer of golden radiance.
There is no doubt, "Super Vision" is in operation.
Why use ’Pupil Skill’ here?
It was tied to Xia Yu’s recent research and improvent, mastering ’Golden Wheat’, presenting a question—
How to knead the perfect dough?
Having the dream-like, perfect ingredient like ’Golden Wheat’ alone is far from enough. As the saying goes, it’s hard for a clever wife to cook without rice, but now with the cooking materials ready, is he that clever wife possessed of skillful hands?
The precision of technique is particularly important.
From the "Demon King Small Account" Liu Ying, Xia Yu gained inspiration for using ’Golden Wheat’, like an arrow guiding him, and following the inspiration, Xia Yu successfully found a way to integrate ’Golden Wheat’ into the dough.
Simply put, nothing much—
Do it!
Use the big stick, cough, the big black stick, and just forge ahead directly.
In this culinary duel regarded by Xia Yu as one of the golden hunting arrows shooting down the eagle of ’White Luo Snake Refining’, he even used an Evolution Crystal Stone to elevate the culinary technique to golden fra, not just for show.
"Five hundred one, five hundred two, five hundred three!"
The beating on the dough continued.
Suddenly, within Xia Yu’s view, specks of golden particles, as if husked grains of rice being stripped of their bran, the outer starchy shell gradually falling away, a purer and immaculate core appearing in Xia Yu’s ’Super Vision’, unbelievably beautiful.
"Pure protein gluten... it’s done!"
Xia Yu stopped, giving the black rod in his hand a firm kiss, and cheerfully said, "Culinary skill is one thing, the impact of luxury equipnt shouldn’t be ignored either!"
"This rod’s 50% boost in kneading strength is precisely for special dough!"
Unknowingly, on the cooking station, the once pale dough was gradually emitting a layer of dazzling brilliance.
The audience who witnessed the entire process was all stunned.
Xia Yu spread his claws to the delicate dough, and when he lifted them, a layer of golden shimring film connected his hand and the dough on the cooking station.
Semi-transparent, faintly golden, and elastic dough mbrane, caused Liu Ying below to open her mouth wide in shock, her hands covering her mouth and nose tightly, with only Lei Aoxue beside her, hearing the girl’s exclamation: "Wow, Mr. Xia is impressive, this seems to be the ultimate form of ’Golden Wheat’ flour!"
