"The chefs of Huaiyang cuisine may be slightly inferior in terms of frying, but they must pass the steaming, stewing, and their knife skills must be of top quality.

There are three knives in Jiangdu, kitchen knives, haircut knives, and pedicure knives. There is no reason why kitchen knives can rank first. Wensi Tofu is the Huaiyang dish that tests the chef's skills the most."

Zhou Zhou laughed and said, "Master Zhao's knife skills did not disappoint me. Wensi tofu was cut as thin as hair and tasted evenly.

Moreover, this is the tenderest water tofu. If you don’t have twenty or thirty years of knife skills, you don’t even think about it. As for knife skills alone, I personally think that Master Zhao’s knife skills are no less than that of some national cooking masters, and they are even more outstanding among the first-class chefs.

Therefore, I don’t want to comment on the knife skills of this dish today.”

The judges were stunned when they heard this.

When evaluating Wensi Tofu, where should we start with the skills of knife skills? Although Chu Zhao's skills of knife skills are outstanding, that's all, and it's still a long way to reach the pinnacle. As a foodie judge, if you want to make a point of contentment, it is the most convenient to make a fuss about it.

Unexpectedly, Zhouzhou gave up this convenience, which was equivalent to increasing the difficulty for himself.

When a gourmet meets a chef, it is really a guilty face. The chef is worried that the foodie is being picked up by the foodie, and the foodie also has to worry about his reputation, fearing that he will lose his face if he can't say a 123-year-old.

So if it were Wu Jiushe and others, they would probably start with Chef Zhao's sword skills. After all, although the base soup of Wensi tofu is important, it is unlikely that the old restaurant where Lu Liu has made Huaiyang cuisine for a century.

When Chef Zhao heard this, he felt warm and respectful to Zhouzhou more and more, and whispered: "Please give me advice."

"Haha, Master Zhao is so polite. In fact, you are already the best among the special-level chefs I have met. However, even Master Zhao, you will inevitably be influenced by Mr. Wu's previous comments.

The base soup used in Wensi tofu should be the old soup base of Luliu. There is no big problem in itself, but every time you use the old soup base, you must add some new soup, so fresh auxiliary ingredients must be added.

Master Zhao may have a slightly unstable mentality when adding auxiliary materials, and he did make a mistake."

Zhouzhou smiled and said, "The old soup base used for Wensi tofu is usually chicken soup. Each time you use it, you must blend a certain amount of pure water, and add Wuchenfu, namely: chicken breast, mushrooms, ham, winter bamboo shoots and lettuce.

The chicken breast is tempted with the same flavor and can evoke the aroma of the old soup base.

Shiitake mushrooms can add a elegant and unique flavor to the base soup.

Ham is salty, fragrant and plump. Winter bamboo shoots are unique and can enhance the taste of the whole bowl of soup. It can be said that each has its own uses and has its own strengths.

Compared with the above four auxiliary ingredients, lettuce is the most inconspicuous, but don’t underestimate it. Lettuce is not only rich in dietary fiber and vitamin C, but also neutralizes greasy and eliminates excess fat. It is a very healthy green vegetable.

However, many chefs only know the advantages of it, but they do not know that lettuce also has the effects of sedation and hypnosis.

Since it has a hypnotic effect, you should be careful when using lettuce. I am bluntly saying that Master Zhao used a little more when eating lettuce, and did not master the time to serve the dishes well, which resulted in the effect of lettuce being too strong. Although it would not have any impact on human health, it would have an extremely weakening effect on human taste buds.

This indirectly affects the taste of Wensi tofu. Our Chinese diet emphasizes the assistance of the king and his subjects. The ingredients are accurate. If you lose a slight mistake, you will be a thousand miles away. Master Zhao’s mistake is not big, but it is not small, so I can only get 90 points for me. Master Zhao, I wonder if you can accept my opinion?"

"The judge Zhou said it was right! Looking back now, I was indeed a little unstable at that time, and lettuce was the last dish. In the face of being restless and impatient, the dosage was indeed a little more.

My Chinese chef uses ingredients and adds ingredients to cook, and based on his feelings, he will not temporarily weigh it. Once his mentality is unstable, such deviations will occur. This is my fault!

As a super chef, I shouldn't make such a low-level mistake.”

Chef Zhao nodded repeatedly, not only did he not feel any dissatisfied, but instead he was overwhelmed with admiration for Zhou Zhou.

Why? He could just eat a few bites of his food and describe his mistake in the kitchen. Is such a gourmet still a human being? He is simply a god!

Wu Jiushe and other judges even saw Zhouzhou's eyes changing. It was so terrible. Fortunately, Zhouzhou is a chef. The three-meal high-end tasting group will be a guest appearance at most. If he is a professional food appraiser, will there be a place for them to eat?

Zhouzhou no longer needs to ask for advice. The judges nodded like chickens pecking at rice, ‘Oh yes, 90 points, 90 points are the most suitable!”

‘The host successfully tasted Wensi Tofu, and said it was very meaningful and precise. He also received the sincere admiration of the chef, successfully lit up Wensi Tofu and obtained the top recipe’

Another top recipe is easy to get.

After absorbing the century-old experience of Wensi Tofu with a smile, Zhouzhou smiled at Chef Zhao and said, "Congratulations to Master Zhao, Lu Liu successfully obtained the three-star qualification for three meals a day! I think the other judges will not have any objections."

"Thank you, thank you Zhou Juan. In fact, what Zhao is glad today is not the Three Stars Card, but the fact that he can meet a professional food appraiser like Zhou Juan.

Zhao really benefited a lot, a lot."

Chef Zhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Zhou, the review has been completed now. You and I are both chefs, so I should be able to call you Master Zhou."

I saw news about you online before, but I didn’t think so. Today I realized that Master Zhou is a real person!

I have seen your expertise in tasting food. I wonder if there is any chance to see your cooking skills?

Don’t get me wrong, I wonder if I will have a chance to go to X164 to 'shop' in the future?"

"Come on the stove!"

Chef Zhao's words shocked Cui Zhengshan, who is also a famous chef in Huaiyang, and the judges looked at Chef Zhao in surprise.

The "passing the stove" mentioned in the diligent movement is actually going to the other party's kitchen and making your own specialty dishes on the other party's territory.

This includes two meanings: one is that you are dissatisfied and you are polite, but it is actually a challenge!

The other is to convince yourself and sincerely make a good relationship and intentionally come to the kitchen.

Obviously, Chef Zhao should be the latter one.

But who is Chef Zhao? He is a famous chef in Huaiyang cuisine and a chef in Luliu. Such a person is willing to come to the door to help the chef. How much face does Zhouzhou have to be?

Zhouzhou followed Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan a few days ago and learned a lot of rules and regulations. He naturally understood what Chef Zhao meant. He felt a little embarrassed: "Master Zhao, as your Green Willow chef, this is probably not appropriate, right?"

"Master Zhou, if you still respect me, Lao Zhao, don't refuse!

Today, Lao Zhao owe you too much, and you can promise me to go to x164 to go to the stove, which also gives me a chance to learn.

Master Zhou, Lao Zhao is just waiting for you! Although I can’t do anything to help the kitchen on the train every day, I can still help you for a day or two every time you leave the train.

Lao Zhao, I am sincere, so don’t hesitate anymore!”

After all this, if Zhouzhou doesn't nod, it will be pretentious.

He could only smile and said, "Okay, then I'll be disrespectful."

The X164 has just been expanded and improved, and both the kitchen and the restaurant have been expanded. I was thinking about launching some genuine dishes from eight major cuisines on the dining car.

Now that you have Master Zhao’s help, even if you only come occasionally, it will be a big help to me.

However, when you come to the stove as Master Zhao, you must pay for the reward."

Chef Zhao was anxious when he heard this, and his face turned red: "Master Zhou, you said this to look down on me. You are scolding people!

Don’t talk about money. What we chefs really care about is a higher level of cooking skills. Which one will be short of money? I heard that even Mr. Zhang Zhouxuan and Mr. Hu Lingjiu praised you as a one-day double-divine dish. Some dishes even reached the legendary level of chef gods. Lao Zhao went to your place to learn!

Is there any reason why students charge teachers in the world?"

This seems that if Zhouzhou continues to talk about money, it would be a real insult to him.
