The extremely soft and tough dough is stretched into long strips by hands, and each overlap is called a buckle.
The most standard way to make dragon beard noodles is to make them in 14 layers, which means that the noodles will be 16,384 in number.
Ye Chui and Chen Jueyuan's movements were almost identical. After they put the dough together, they shook it gently to allow the dough to stretch naturally and gradually become larger, and then they put them together again.
It was so complicated that noodles soon appeared.
At this time, the noodles seemed to come alive in their hands, sometimes like a dancing snake, sometimes like a raging storm, which was amazing.
The fifty judges in the audience opened their eyes wide. It was the first time they saw stretched noodles and they were deeply mesmerized by this unique skill of making noodles.
In fact, if you walk around Chinatown, you will find similar noodle making methods are not uncommon. For example, in the ramen restaurants that can be found everywhere, ramen chefs will occasionally stand in front of the chopping board to show off their unique skills in making ramen.
But the ramen made by the ramen chef was only four or five times pulled at most, and the noodles were small and interesting, but how could it compare to the performance of Ye Chui and Chen Jueyuan at that time
The noodles had become extremely thin in their hands, and someone was counting them personally, and they had already reached ten strands.
At this time, both of them had 1,024 noodles in their hands.
The movements of both of them slowed down at the same time.
When making dragon beard noodles, most chefs can achieve ten turns, which can be said to be just a hurdle. It will be extremely difficult to move on. The chef's movements must be more careful and the strength must be more steady. The judges in the audience were also sweating.
"Master can actually stretch noodles, but... can he do it? Chen Jueyuan's highest record is 15 folds. He has performed it in front of customers at Wangfu Noodle House, and I've seen it myself... Can Ye Chui do it?" The speaker was Chen Tian. Looking at Ye Chui stretching noodles, she seemed a little worried, and she was asking this to Li Xiuyun.
Among the people present, Li Xiuyun was the one who knew Ye Chui best, as he came from China together with Ye Chui.
But Li Xiuyun stared at Ye Chui on the stage. He shook his head and said, "I don't know... I've never seen him make this kind of noodles before." After a pause, Li Xiuyun continued, "But I know that as long as it is about cooking, as long as he does it, he will definitely do it well and do it the best."
While they were talking, Ye Chui and Chen Jueyuan had already stretched the noodles to twelve pieces.
At this time, the two people had a total of 4096 noodles in their hands.
A small ball of dough was stretched into more than 4,000 strands
Many people present felt extremely surprised. If they were not there today, they would definitely not believe that this was true.
But this is not the end. After stretching the noodles out, the two people put them together again, put their hands through the noodles, and gently shook their palms to stretch the noodles again.
"I don't know how many times the boss has to stretch it. I feel my heartbeat speeding up." Tang Shanshan stared at the stage and spoke with a trembling voice. She was extremely nervous. The thin noodles stretched and bounced, and seemed to be thinner than human hair. Holding them in her hands was like holding a handful of long silver hair.
"Stretching noodles is a unique skill. Noodles must not break when being stretched. If one strand breaks, it will be a failure even if you stretch the noodles twenty times." Jiang Yuemei continued, "I wonder what level of stretched noodles we will see today? I am really looking forward to it more and more now."
As they were talking, the two people on the stage had already pulled the noodles fourteen times. The hair, which was already thinner than a human hair, was gently pulled bigger by their hands. At this time, there were a total of 16,384 noodles.
A piece of dough was stretched into tens of thousands of strands!
The noodles were thin and long. I held them high above my head with one hand, and with the other hand the noodles flowed across the chopping board, like the Milky Way pouring down on the ground, which was amazing.
The judges in the audience couldn't help but exclaim.
Chen Jueyuan's forehead was covered with sweat at this time. He felt extremely nervous. He paused for a moment and turned to look at Ye Chui.
"If you have the ability, continue to do it with me." Chen Jueyuan suddenly said in a low voice, and then folded the noodles together again.
His limit is fifteen dunks.
Seeing that Ye Chui could follow him and do fourteen buckles was beyond his expectations.
He had never thought that there was someone in the world who could stretch noodles to this level. With just this skill, Ye Chui was famous enough, but it was not enough.
He is an expert and authority in stretched noodles. It is impossible for anyone in this world to make stretched noodles better than him. This concept has been deeply rooted in his mind for more than ten years. His record has not been broken for more than ten years. No one can even reach his level. As long as he uses his fifteen-dunk skill, Ye Chui will definitely lose.
Fourteen clicks is Ye Chui’s limit.
He couldn't go on.
With such a proud feeling, Chen Jueyuan started the fifteen turns, and the noodles were once again slowly pulled apart by him with extremely steady and small force.
Fifteen buckles.
At this moment, there were a total of 32,768 noodles in Chen Jueyuan's hand!
Each turn will double the number of noodles, and the difficulty will increase exponentially with each turn.
At this time Ye Chui did not move. He stopped at the fourteenth button and looked at Chen Jueyuan with a calm expression.
After completing fifteen buckles, Chen Jueyuan breathed a sigh of relief, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Ye Chui.
In his opinion, Ye Chui's pause was a sign of surrender.
He was very happy in his heart. This young culinary genius could do anything else but insist on making stretched noodles. Now he could only bring shame upon himself. Seeing Ye Chui's motionless expression, had he reached his limit
Many people thought that Ye Chui had reached his limit, including Chen Tian, Tang Shanshan, Jiang Yuemei and others in the audience.
Many people saw Ye Chui stop at the fourteenth buckle and thought that he no longer had the confidence to continue stretching.
Mrs. Gao, who had been keeping a tense face, finally relaxed at this moment.
The most wonderful thing about oil noodles is the unique skill of stretching noodles. No other noodle making method can be more dazzling than stretched noodles. Ye Chui and Chen Jueyuan both make oil noodles. As long as Chen Jueyuan can stretch more noodles than Ye Chui, the fifty judges on the scene will have no reason to choose Ye Chui as their favorite culinary skill, and they will definitely win the competition.
Mrs. Gao has been under a lot of pressure these days. She has been deserted by her friends and relatives in Chinatown. She only has one way to go, and that is to win the competition and get forgiveness and reuse from Food King Enterprise. Then she wants to win over the chefs in Chinatown. It may be difficult, but no one is more suitable to do this than her.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Gao turned her head and glanced at Andrew next to her. As expected, she saw a smile on Andrew's face.
He seemed very satisfied.
But... Andrew's smile quickly turned into a slight surprise, and his brows furrowed.
Mrs. Gao hurriedly looked towards the stage.
After pausing for a moment, Ye Chui finally moved, stacked the noodles together again, and started the fifteenth buckle.
"Is he going to throw the jar into the ground?"
"Is he trying to make a final attempt?"
"He had clearly reached his limit just now. Now he's clearly unwilling to admit defeat, right?"
These questions flashed through the minds of countless people.
This also includes Chen Jueyuan.
"When making stretched noodles, every strand must be intact. If one strand is broken, then your noodles will not be authentic. Ye Chui, you should know this!" Chen Jueyuan reminded in a cold voice.
Ye Chui smiled faintly and glanced at Chen Jueyuan: "Of course I know this."
The noodles were stretched out again in his hands. His force was light and steady. The noodles trembled slightly and slowly stretched longer and longer.
Not a single one was broken.
Fifteen buckles.
Ye Chui has completed fifteen dunks!
Some judges in the audience couldn't help but stood up again and clapped their hands vigorously, making a clapping sound.
Chen Tiangen and Tang Shanshan even screamed, the sound almost pierced the eardrums.
Ye Chui also stretched the noodles to fifteen pieces.
At least, at this moment, Ye Chui and Chen Jueyuan are at the same level. Chen Jueyuan is no better than Ye Chui in stretching noodles. In fact, because of the previous competition, it is possible that more chefs will choose Ye Chui as their favorite.
"Master..." Han Yuyan, who was standing next to Ye Chui, trembled slightly and patted his full chest gently. "I was really scared just now. I almost thought the noodles were going to break. Fortunately, Master, you stretched the noodles out."
"Are you scared just by this?" Ye Chui said to Han Yuyan with a smile.
"Ah?" Han Yuyan was stunned for a moment, but didn't understand what Ye Chui meant.
Chen Jueyuan also heard what Ye Chui said, but he understood the meaning behind Ye Chui's words, and his eyes suddenly became much colder.
Then, under the gazes of countless people, Ye Chui once again stacked the 30,000 noodles together.
Sixteenth dunk!
"Is Ye Chu trying to kill himself? Fifteen dunks are already impressive, but he actually wants sixteen!" Jiang Yuemei shouted anxiously.
"It's enough to make the noodles as good as Chen Jueyuan's, but Ye Chui is still not satisfied!?" This was Shen Zhongda's puzzled voice, "He will hurt himself by doing this... Sixteen buckles, that's 60,000 noodles, how is this possible! "
"I believe in the boss, he will definitely succeed." Tang Shanshan shouted somewhat blindly.
"This is not a question of belief or not... This is simply impossible." Chen Tian said in a daze, but then she clenched her fists tightly, "I also believe that Master can do it!"
She was right to believe.
The sixteenth noodle was slowly stretched out, and again not a single noodle was broken. Ye Chui's sixteenth noodle was successful!
At this time, there are 65,536 noodles.
The audience couldn't help but burst into cheers.
However…
Is that enough
No, that's not enough.
Ye Chui smiled faintly and started the seventeen-key trick. (~^~)
