Yao Shi took several judges to the kitchen.
The day shift staff have all left after get off work.
Fu Yu and the other four stood in front of the stove, waiting for the assessment to begin.
"headmaster!"
Fu Yu's eyes widened in surprise when he recognized the middle-aged man standing next to Dong Juntian at a glance.
Unexpectedly, the principal of his own school was invited for this assessment.
Li He also recognized Fu Yu and said with a smile: "Fu Yu, come on soon! I promised your boss that the assessment will be fair and just."
Fu Yu smiled: "That's for sure."
Yao Shi saw that several contestants were ready, so he invited Dong Juntian and others to the aisle next to him.
This position is perfect for visualizing every move in front of the four kitchen counters at the same time.
"It's time to start!"
Yao Shi gave the order and the four people started to take action.
Several people are very familiar with the task of preparing food, and they are busy working on their own.
Fu Yu skillfully washed and blanched the chopped ribs, then put them into the pressure cooker for a set time.
Peel the potatoes, wash and cut into cubes.
Peel the pumpkin, wash and cut into cubes.
Cut off the beans and wash them.
Chop the onions, ginger, and garlic, and prepare the aniseed ingredients.
All ingredients are ready!
Fu Yu quickly started to heat the oil pan.
At this time, several judges who were watching were watching them prepare dishes and communicating in low voices.
Li He: "The sword technique on the left is very good, isn't it? The technique is also very neat, it looks good!"
Yao Shi introduced: "His name is Sun Qingning, and he has been working in the kitchen for almost a year."
Li Hyuk nodded.
Wang Jingrui looked at the person on the right: "His crabs are pretty decent. They look like Russian crabs, right?"
Yao Shi nodded: "Yes, his name is Yao Yihang, and he will make Russian crab in a while."
The chef Gao Chongbo who followed Wang Jingrui suddenly whispered: "Hey! That handsome guy named Fu Yu, is he going to make stew? What should I do when putting it on the plate?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the others immediately turned to look at Fu Yu.
On the kitchen counter are finely cut preparations.
Pre-stewed ribs, corn, beans, potatoes, pumpkin...
This, doesn’t this side dish look like braised pork ribs?
But I think of Chollima’s specialties.
A few people took a closer look and recognized that this was a harvest stew.
Li He naturally saw that Fu Yu was preparing to take the assessment for stewed dishes.
But although the stew tastes good, the presentation effect is really unsatisfactory.
The requirement for this assessment is that it must be both delicious and delicious.
The "color" of Fu Yu's dish directly hinders the whole dish.
Is this because I was doing odd jobs in the kitchen every day, so I didn’t learn anything and could only pick up simple dishes to make up for it?
Li He has been dealing with major restaurants in the city all year round. From what he has heard and witnessed, he also knows that the chefs in the back kitchen have secret intentions and generally do not easily teach the junior workers.
It seems that Dong Juntian didn't want to give Fu Yu this time's regularization target, but was using him to make up for it.
Li He felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, he is a student from his own school, and now he specially invites himself to be the judge.
In the end, Fu Yu was asked to run with him.
Dong Juntian did this a bit unreasonably.
Several other people also looked at Fu Yu inquiringly.
I also guessed in my heart that what he was going to make was a harvest stew.
Among them, Dong Juntian was the most embarrassed and annoyed.
Standing next to him was the principal of the chef school.
Dong Juntian turned to Yao Shi and winked: What's going on?
Yao Shi frowned slightly.
He had not specifically asked the contestants what their specialty dishes were.
There is competition involved after all.
Things like this are usually kept as secret as possible.
But he didn't expect Fu Yu to prepare stew.
Yao Shi glanced at Zhao Meng subconsciously.
They saw Zhao Mengzheng, the old man, busy shaking his spoon and not paying attention to the competition here.
Yao Shi was certain.
Fu Yu must have said hello to Zhao Meng when he made the harvest stew.
Since Zhao Meng could acquiesce in this matter, it must be because he was confident.
I think of Fu Yu’s excellent performance when making dough balloons and spicy crayfish.
Yao Shi smiled and said to Dong Juntian: "Fu Yu is very talented in plate presentation. You will soon know why he chose to cook this dish."
Hearing this, the others frowned in unison.
Stew for presentation?
Is there any other unique way to make rice in a big pot?
Gao Chongbo shook his head, obviously not optimistic about Fu Yu.
There was a lot of noise in the back kitchen, and several judges stood in the aisle again, deliberately lowering their voices.
Fu Yu didn't realize that he had become the focus of attention.
When the oil in the pot was hot, he casually added onions, ginger, garlic and aniseed and stir-fried until fragrant.
When he started to move, the attention of several judges was still focused on him and did not leave.
Everyone was curious about what he could do with this harvest stew.
"Hey! His technique is very professional!"
Li Hyuk himself was a chef by profession.
Although I haven't been in the kitchen for nearly 20 years since I opened a school, I still know the cooking techniques well.
When Fu Yu threw onions, ginger, and garlic into the oil pan, he actually made a very obvious hand shaking motion.
This is a habitual move that only veterans will have.
The same can be seen from Yao Shi and Gao Chongbo.
Gao Chongbo echoed: "Indeed, I noticed it too."
Yao Shi said: "The Chef Zhao who Fu Yu is following now is our master chef. His cooking skills are very good. He always treats Fu Yu as his apprentice."
Li He's face softened slightly: "So that's it."
Dong Juntian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it would be bad if this caused unnecessary misunderstandings.
The aroma from the oil pan has come out.
Seeing that it was almost done, Fu Yu then added beans, potatoes, and pumpkin to stir-fry.
The wok that was supposed to be heavy due to the ingredients was now light and light, without any burden on the wrist.
The hand holding the spatula, in conjunction with the command of the brain, began to use the knowledge of improved stir-frying techniques to stir the spoon.
Relax your shoulders and droop naturally. Use the protruding round bottom at the bottom of the wok and use the edge of the stove mouth as the fulcrum to move at a constant speed.
At this time, the judges onlookers were silent.
Everyone was watching Fu Yu Dianshao's movements with bated breath.
Too standard!
So smooth!
You must know that turning the spoon and using skillfully during operation is the most critical and technical link in the process of turning the pot.
What Fu Yu did at this time was exactly the textbook version of the operation.
To make this process so beautiful, it must have taken a lot of hard work.
Because Fu Yu's wrist movement has a very wide arc, anyone who has ever been a cook knows how tiring it is.
But Fu Yu did it extremely easily.
Gao Chongbo said jokingly: "Principal Li, your school must have very strict requirements for students when training, right?"
This sentence expresses everyone's feelings!
After all, in chef school, spooning is a compulsory course.
And looking at Fu Yu's operation, we know that the teacher who led him must have excellent skills.
Li He didn't know what to say.
He looked at Fu Yu's operation with incredible eyes.
Because the demonstration movements performed by the teacher who taught Dian Shao in their school were clearly not as good as Fu Yu's.
But family scandals should not be made public.
So Li He pretended to be profound and said: "It's just so so."
When other people saw that Li He was pretending to be such a serious person and didn't show it on his face, they all complained in their hearts: He's really good at it!
