Chapter 2224: The dumbfounded Europeans

Speaking of which, Chu Xiao was also a weirdo. If ordinary people took Yuan Zhou as an opponent or a reference, they would definitely feel hopeless.

For example, your childhood friend. When you were young, you were 1.1 meters tall and he was 1.2 meters tall. In the end, when you were still 1.3 meters tall, your friend had already grown to 1.7 meters.

“After that, you’ll have to work harder and drink milk. Your little friend will be 1.9 meters tall. Is there any meaning to that?

Therefore, it was reasonable for Wu Hai to call Chu Xiao the second fool Chu. Chu Xiao was different from ordinary people. The stronger Yuan Zhou was, the more motivated he would be. He wanted to become stronger. This was probably the genius among geniuses, the strong endurance.

Zhou Shijie recalled Yuan Zhou’s actions just now and found that Chu Xiao was right. He indeed didn’t use the thin, long and thin knife that he used to cut the beef. Zhou Shijie couldn’t help taking a deep breath.

Chu Xiao really knew Yuan Zhou best.

“Little Yuan’s progress is so fast. It seems that he can’t relax on his own.” As long as Zhou Shijie thought of Yuan Zhou’s usual schedule, he would feel his scalp go numb.

He was getting old, and he really didn’t have the energy to do so.

The turmoil on and off the stage didn’t affect the main dish. After the goose was cooked in the cold water bath, Yuan Zhou used a hollow flat sieve to water the goose up, intending to control the water content.

At that time, Yuan Zhou freed his hands and planned to mix the sauce.

…

“Since knife skills use the method of understanding cattle to show the meaning of culture, the sauce should also use Chinese seasoning to show our own culture.” Yuan Zhou thought inwardly.

His hands didn’t slow down as he took out some of the Chinese-specific condiments he had prepared earlier.

This head chef had brought some uncooked spices with him, which were allowed by the organizing committee. Not only did Yuan Zhou bring some, but every other chef who came to participate had also brought some special spices of their own country and region. These were all their own trump cards.

In fact, Yuan Zhou didn’t bring much. He mainly brought them here to prevent the judges from having a further understanding of Chinese food if the ingredients and seasonings prepared by the organizing committee didn’t have the Taste of China and couldn’t make authentic Chinese food.

The final control of the competition was in August’s hands. Naturally, he had prepared some ingredients and spices from China. Not only that, but he had also prepared ingredients from the other chefs ‘homelands. He treated them equally. In this regard, August had always done very well.

There were 12 kinds of seasonings in total. After Yuan Zhou took them out one by one, he began to choose. Soon, he set his eyes on a pile of golden fruits, which were olives.

Speaking of which, this golden olive was brought to him by his two in-name disciples, Huang Gang and Zhang Longquan from Guangdong Province, who rushed back to Chengdu before he came to France.

They all knew that Yuan Zhou liked to collect all kinds of special and rare ingredients. Whether it was his disciples or some diners, as long as they went out and saw it, they would usually bring some back for Yuan Zhou. For example, Lei ti and Zong mo did the same.

“Three-edged olive, a specialty of Guangdong Province, can be used as the main ingredient. Its unique fresh, sweet, and sour taste should add a lot of color to the goose meat.” Yuan Zhou twisted the well-preserved olive.

Although it was a little withered, it didn’t affect its value.

The three-edged olive, also known as the gold and Jade three-Twisted Olive, was a landmark protected product in Guangdong Province. It was very distinctive, but the production was quite rare. Especially this time, Huang Gang and the others had brought a wild three-edged olive that they found on a wild olive tree when they went to the wild, which made it even more precious.

Compared to the artificially cultivated triple-edged olive, which had a crispy and sweet texture, a fragrant and lingering aftertaste after chewing, The Wild One had a bit more of the unique sourness of the wild fruit, which was exactly the taste that Yuan Zhou needed.

After selecting the main ingredient of the sauce, the other ingredients became simple. Yuan Zhou selected them in a few moments and then directly processed them.

The olive was removed from the core and pounded, then other spices were added. It was mashed into a paste with a small wooden mortar, and then mixed.

After a few minutes, the sauce was ready. He took the goose and slowly poured it into its body. Then, he set it aside and continued to make the sauce that he needed outside.

After everything was done, the goose could be put into the oven. The oven prepared by the organizing committee was not very big. It was the kind of oven that could probably roast two chickens at the same time. Of course, it was more than enough to roast one goose.

The second kind of sauce prepared by Yuan Zhou to brush the skin was almost translucent. Once it was brushed on the skin, it seemed to have no effect on the color change of the skin except for the sizzling sound of oil.

It was different from the roast whole cow. The roast whole goose needed to be embellished with sauce. Otherwise, the roast whole cow would be tender and juicy. The main difference was the taste of the beef and the goose.

By then, everyone on the scene could tell that Yuan Zhou’s cooking was coming to an end. He was just waiting for the moment when the goose was fully cooked. It had only been 30 minutes since the competition started. It was simply a dream-like 30 minutes.

Podraco, who had won the second match, felt that five people would be faster than one. He was currently carefully preparing the main material for the dark group’s carving.

That’s right, he had to do something to the delicious foie gras. It was quite difficult to keep the foie gras in its perfect form and add decorations to it at the same time. Of course, for podraco, who had the reputation of being the king of delicacy, this was considered a special skill.

At that moment, podraco had a confident look on his face as he used a small and exquisite knife to cook the foie gras.

As a matter of fact, podraco’s actions were very eye-catching if one didn’t look at Yuan Zhou’s dazzling cutting skills at the beginning. It was just a pity.

Julian’s Moonman technique was even more brilliant. When she was preparing the sauce, the spoon, pot, and sauce were connected in a line at an extremely fast speed, like a silver thread. It flashed past, and it indeed had the color and shape of the moon.

As for Steele, he naturally used his own unique skill. He had his own unique understanding of the control of the fire. Of course, the main course had not been put into the pot yet, so he had no time to display it.

It was just that he had an assistant who had been lost in his thoughts for some time. Fortunately, it didn’t affect the work at hand, or else Steele would feel that his temper was not good at all.

Of course, what Steele didn’t know was that many people in the audience knew that this assistant had just been educated by Yuan Zhou.

“Swish!”

The big goose chosen by Yuan Zhou was fat and juicy. After being roasted by the stove fire, it made a crackling sound. The skin of the goose began to change from its original white color to a scorched yellow, indicating that it was about to be done.

As the goose became more and more mature, the fragrance also became more and more intense. Unlike the three dishes made in the first round, even the braised chicken had a long, hidden fragrance. If one was focused, it would be easy to miss it.

However, the whole roast goose was different. The fragrance was overbearing and strong. It had already swept across the stage before it was completely cooked.

“It smells so good, who’s done?” Steele was busy and didn’t have time to look at it, but it didn’t hinder his nose from working.

“He’s almost done? he’s too fast.” Julian happened to be washing the big goose. When she turned her head, she found the source of the fragrance was Yuan Zhou.

“Clang!”

At that moment, Yuan Zhou looked at the skin of the goose and felt it was almost done. With a roll of his hand, the whole goose fell onto the big plate that was specially prepared at the side.

“The main event is here!” Chu Xiao muttered.
