Chapter 517: Tamagoyaki vs Imperial Egg Custard

Views:

A roasted potato and a braised potato were served to the judges' table at the same time. Judging from the appearance, the red potato has a beautiful color, with a few green parsley and coriander, red and green, and very delicious in appearance, while the roasted potato has a beautiful appearance. It was much worse. The dish had a milky yellow color overall. Although it was not the kind of dish that would make people lose their appetite at first sight, it was not as delicious as braised potatoes in terms of sensory perception.

The judges of the Super Chef Competition are very fair. Chefs from the same department will find gourmets from the same department. If they are from different departments, gourmets from other departments will be invited to taste.

At this time, two Japanese gourmets and a Southeast Asian gourmet were helping Duoge Dongqian judge.

None of the three gourmets belong to cuisines that include baked potatoes or braised potatoes, which ensures the fairness of the judging.

The three gourmets were all old men who looked a bit old-fashioned, and they seemed to have little communication with each other. They tasted two delicacies in turn, and there was no expression on their faces.

Outside the court, everyone on Ye Chui's side was a little worried. Dong Youyou was watching the expressions of the three judges nervously, as if he didn't dare to express his anger. He was holding Tian Xiaodu's arm tightly - Cong Tian Xiao Du's suppressed red face could completely reflect Dong Youyou's current state of mind, but because she was so nervous, Tian Xiaodu still chose to endure it...

"My sister's cooking looks so good. My sister must win this competition, right?" Dong Qian turned to look at Ye Chui, seeking Ye Chui's opinion.

"It's hard to say. Your sister's dishes are better in terms of appearance, but in terms of taste... I feel that the baked potato dish may be better. That dish is not simple. Dong Qian and him will win. It's 50-50," Ye Chui said in a deep voice.

There wasn't much that stood out about the roasted potato process. It seemed to be no different from how ordinary people make roasted potatoes. But Ye Chui just saw clearly that after Doge finished roasting the potatoes, he used a kitchen knife to carefully The lines are cut off on the potato - the potato is already ripe at that time, and the texture of the potato is difficult to maintain stable. It was difficult to cut fine knife patterns, but Duo Ge was very quick and his knife skills were very good. He was able to cut several knives in a very short time.

And when cutting. His knife was also smeared with some seasoning, allowing the flavor of the seasoning to penetrate deep into the inside of the potato. After cutting, the outside of the potato even maintained its original shape, which made the potato taste even more soft. A sense of hierarchy. The most difficult part of roasting potatoes is getting the flavor right, and he solved it easily in his hands.

Although Dong Qian's braised potatoes also have many merits, according to Ye Chui's judgment, the taste is already inferior to Doge's roasted potatoes.

The three gourmets have finished their tasting.

The host of the competition asked the three people in English what they thought of the two dishes. The first Japanese gourmet didn't hesitate much and pointed at Dogo.

He chooses Dogo!

Tian Xiaodu's face suddenly turned redder...

Fortunately, the second Thai gourmet chose Dong Qian after thinking about it: "Actually, there are baked potatoes in Thai food, but Master Dong Qian's braised potatoes gave me a whole new taste of potatoes. So I think Chef Dong Qian’s dish wins.”

Now it's one to one. Whoever wins in the end, Dong Qian or Duo Ge, depends on the judgment of the third gourmet.

It was a Japanese gourmet who was wearing a kimono. He folded his arms and was silent for nearly a minute. Then he said in stiff Japanese English: "The dishes of Chef Dong and Chef Dogo are very good." Fascinating, but I think Chef Dogo's baked potato dish is better in terms of taste, but Chef Dong's dish is better in terms of appearance, which makes it difficult for me to choose... Well, since this is a chef competition. It all depends on taste, so I choose Chef Dogo to win.”

Following the Japanese gourmet's words, the onlookers cheering for Dogo immediately burst into cheers. On Ye Chui's side, everyone was a little gloomy - Tian Xiaodu's face was as red as an apple, and his arm was probably about to be ripped off by Dong Youyou.

Dong Qian lost the first round of the chef competition!

After hearing the result, Dong Qian was stunned for a moment, then a carefree smile appeared on her face, she shook hands with Doge, accepted a few greetings from the host, and left the arena.

Among Ye Chui's group. The first player to be eliminated was Dong Qian.

Because of Dong Qian's failure, Ye Chui's group seemed to be less interested until the evening. Several girls accompanied Dong Qian to the beach to relax. Dong Youyou even cried because of this. Dong Qian is very open-minded. She has been mentally prepared for the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the Super Chef Competition.

When she saw that Han Yuyan was always by her side, Dong Qian smiled and said to Sister Han, "You'd better hurry up and prepare for the game tomorrow morning."

"Forget it, even if you lose, I definitely can't win." Han Yuyan seemed to have seen through everything, "I will definitely lose this game."

She spoke so freely, as if she had given up on the game.

Dong Youyou, Tang Shanshan and other girls knew that this sister could not cook anything but eggs. After thinking about it one by one, they all patted Han Yuyan on the shoulder sadly, as if Sister Han was really They were comforting themselves after losing the game...

However, when the results of the match between Han Yuyan and Handa Xian came out the next day, everyone was completely surprised.

“I think this palace egg custard is even more delicious!”

"I also like this palace egg custard even more!"

"This imperial egg custard is definitely the winner without any doubt."

After tasting Handa Sen's Tamagoyaki and Han Yuyan's Imperial Egg Custard, the three judges overwhelmingly chose Sister Han to win.

Hearing this result, all the friends were almost stunned.

The most surprised person was probably Han Yuyan herself. The sister pointed at herself: "Huh? Did I win?"

Han Yuyan's imperial egg custard was made according to Ye Chui's instructions. In addition to eggs, the ingredients include tofu and beef rub.

You only need half a piece of tofu, cut it into thin slices, put some salt on both sides, and marinate for ten minutes to get the flavor. Spread a thin layer of peanut oil on the inside of the steamed egg custard bowl, add the tofu, and smash it. Pour the eggs into it, add an equal amount of water, and then put it into the steamer.

To make egg custard, you can actually use a microwave oven, but Han Yuyan chose to use the most primitive steamer, so that the custard produced is the most authentic.

Bring the water in the steamer to a boil, then turn to medium heat and steam for about eighteen minutes.

It is also very simple to judge whether the egg custard is cooked through. Insert a bamboo skewer into the egg custard and see if there is any water flowing out. If there is no water flowing out from under the egg custard, it proves that the egg custard has been steamed.

At this time, take up another pot, pour a small amount of oil, add the minced meat and stir-fry, add ginger slices and scallions, stir-fry until fragrant, finally add a small amount of cooking wine and soy sauce, stir-fry, and stir-fry the minced beef into small pieces. meat balls, at this time spread the fried minced beef evenly on top of the egg custard.

The white texture is paired with reddish beef cubes, and garnished with a few cilantro, and a palace tofu soup is completed.

The method is very simple, but how to break the eggs and how to stir-fry the minced beef are all the key points of this dish. If there are slight differences, the taste may be completely different in the mouths of professional gourmets.

As for Handa-sen’s tamagoyaki, the method is also very simple.

Crack the eggs, introduce some Japanese stock, add salt and MSG. Handa-sen also adds some chopped green onion to the egg liquid, which gives the taste of Tamagoyaki an onion aroma. The pot used to make Tamagoyaki is Sifang In the pan, pour a little oil into the domestic pan, wait until it boils, then sprinkle in the egg liquid, let the egg liquid spread out in the pan, wait for the egg liquid to gradually condense, use a spatula to roll up the egg liquid little by little .

This action is very demanding. You must not damage the integrity of the egg roll. At the same time, you must control the heat. There is no reverse side of the egg roll. One side is solidified and the other side is liquid. When the egg liquid is rolled up, the liquid egg liquid is just right. It can exert the effect of the paste and make the entire egg roll form a layered whole without causing any burnt spots in the egg roll.

The prepared egg rolls should also be cut into even sizes and placed on a plate.

Several other side dishes are also required, such as grilled sausages.

Use a small red sausage for the sausage. Cut a section of the sausage into a rice shape and pour it into a pan with a little oil. When the sausage is heated, the section will split to form a sausage octopus. Put it together with the tamagoyaki, and then add some Japanese pickled vegetables and a plate of tamagoyaki with full color, flavor and flavor are completed.

The whole plate of tamagoyaki seems to have a unique Japanese freshness, making this dish look delicate yet elegant.

Judging from the appearance, it seems to be on par with Han Yuyan’s imperial egg custard.

However, Ye Chui already knows that Handa Sen has a very extraordinary background. She is the contemporary head of Japanese Half-day Cuisine. Although she is very young, she already has the title of Five Patterns Chef - according to international star ratings, this He is already a seven-star chef, and he is one of those rare culinary geniuses. In such a cooking competition, all kinds of chef geniuses are definitely the most rare.

She is also very famous in Japan, so no one on Ye Chui's side has much confidence that Han Yuyan can win this game. Even Ye Chui doesn't have much expectations.

However, the result was shocking. Sister Han’s egg custard dish was an overwhelming victory...

All I can say is that Sister Han’s scrambled egg dish is truly worthy of its reputation. As long as she is making egg dishes, she is not perfect.

Looking carefully, Manny Pritchett also fell in love with her ecstasy meal... (~^~)
