Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Is this Chicken Breast?!
Translator: 549690339
While listening to Tang Xie’s introduction, Qin Lang was carefully observing the details of the Golden Silk Mockingbird displayed on the screen, a hint of admiration appearing on his face.
This is quite an interesting dish, with a preparation process for the ingredients even more complex than that of the Snowflake Chicken.
No wonder Tang Xie was so confident after getting this theme.
This dish surpasses any other dish Tang Xie has presented before.
However… a fighting spirit arose in Qin Lang’s eyes.
The cooking of a dish does not mean the more complex and difficult it is, the better.
Complexity is for the final presentation of the taste; in the end, a competition of delicious food is still a competition of flavor.
And he was confident in his Snowflake Chicken.
During Tang Xie’s presentation, eleven Food Recommenders had finished tasting the dish.
“Our eleven Food Recommenders have finished tasting player Tang Xie’s dish! Now, let’s have player Qin Lang enter the dish tasting section!” the Host announced loudly, holding a handheld microphone, and then signaled Qin Lang to start.
In the elimination competition, the Food Recommenders who grant the Food Recommender Badge to the players would form an evaluation after the tasting section, but there is no such section in the ranking match.
For the viewing effect, the Food Recommenders still need to give evaluations, but their evaluations will be included in the voting decision section.
Therefore, after Tang Xie’s dish tasting was over, Qin Lang’s dish tasting would immediately begin.
After hearing the host’s words, Qin Lang stepped forward a few steps and arrived in front of the Judges’ Seats.
Taking a deep breath, he slightly bowed towards the Judges’ Seats.
“Greetings to the eleven Food Recommenders, the dish I brought today is called Snowflake Chicken.”
After announcing the name of the dish, Qin Lang opened his kitchen cabinet car, carrying out servings of the dish to place in front of the Food Recommenders.
Under the synchronized close-up camera, the white chicken, like rolling clouds, embellished with tiny diced ham, appeared in everyone’s field of vision, even the details of the gentle swaying with the plate as it was served were so clear.
The Dongxia Arena fell into a stir once again, due to the dish that Qin Lang had served.
Unlike Tang Xie’s dish, Qin Lang’s dish didn’t look like a main course, but rather like a dessert, the white portion resembling delicate cream.
Tang Xie, standing aside after completing his tasting section, stared at the dish on the screen, his mouth unconsciously agape.
What on earth did Qin Lang make?
This Snowflake Chicken completely exceeded his predictions, to the extent that Tang Xie felt like the two of them had been given different themes.
If he recalled correctly, wasn’t the fixed ingredient project supposed to include chicken breast?
Where is the chicken breast?
The dark red particles sprinkled on top could be identified as diced ham based on the details.
Since that wasn’t the chicken breast, where was the chicken breast?
Or… was it hidden inside that cotton candy-like delicate food?
Tang Xie’s gaze was fixed on the dish Qin Lang had cooked, somewhat uncertain for a moment.
A familiar feeling filled his heart.
He wouldn’t… lose again, would he?
No way! Absolutely impossible!
He had even taken out the Golden Silk Mockingbird, there was no way he could lose!
After serving the dish, Qin Lang returned to his starting position.
This time, the Host did not forget to ask his question.
Taking advantage of the time when the eleven Food Recommenders had started tasting, he quickly walked to Qin Lang’s side, “Player Qin Lang, this competition requires adding chicken breast to the cooking. But so far, I have not seen the presence of chicken breast in this dish. Can you explain where exactly you added it?”
“Of course.” Qin Lang responded with a slight smile. “The diced cooked ham sprinkled on top of this dish is used to enhance the flavor and layers of taste in the dish.”
He paused slightly before continuing, “All the other parts are made of chicken breast.”
The entire arena fell silent in that moment.
The next second, the arena was filled with numerous exclamations.
That’s chicken breast?!
They looked at the cloud-like delicate chicken in the plate with incredulous eyes.
It seemed to have no relation whatsoever to chicken breast.
And this feeling was so familiar.
In the last competition, hadn’t they also been unable to believe that the white, countless thin strips could be carved from tofu?
In the Players’ Spectator Seats, Lei Ke’s expression turned serious.
He stared intently at Qin Lang in the field.
This guy, he had surprised him again!
After the end of the elimination competition, Lei Ke, driven by his competitive spirit, secretly tried to cut tofu.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t achieve the same effect as Qin Lang.
This Snowflake Chicken that Qin Lang had brought today gave him a complete feeling of cluelessness.
Just how was the chicken breast transformed into such a cloud-like lightness?
This question appeared in Lei Ke’s mind and wouldn’t disappear.
But one thing was certain.
He was looking forward to his battle with Qin Lang even more.
Upon hearing Qin Lang’s explanation, Tang Xie stood rooted to the spot.
How was the chicken breast transformed into this state?
And what would the texture of chicken breast in this state be like?
For a moment, he felt an urge to immediately taste the Snowflake Chicken.
However, according to the rules, this would be delayed until after the voting section.
The Snowflake Chicken was small in quantity, so there wasn’t enough time for the Host to ask another question. Very quickly, the Food Recommenders signaled that they had finished tasting.
“Both players’ dishes have completed the tasting!” As soon as the final Food Recommender finished tasting, the Host announced loudly, “So now, let us proceed directly to the Food Recommenders’ evaluation voting section!”
Adding evaluations to the voting section meant that the Food Recommenders not only needed to name the player they favored, but also had to provide a justified reason.
At that moment, countless audience members in the Audience Seats turned their attention to the Food Recommenders.
Among these two dishes, the Golden Silk Mockingbird was more visibly stunning, while the Snowflake Chicken, like a cloud of chicken, still held a veil of mystery in everyone’s mind.
They all wanted to know, just which dish was superior.
More importantly, they wanted to know what the flavor of these two dishes would be.
“I’ll go first.” The first Food Recommender seated to the left of the Judges’ Seats smiled and took the initiative to speak, “I had heard previously about player Tang Xie’s Golden Silk Mockingbird, but this is the first time I have tasted it.”
“The chicken breast woven into the bird was filled with fatty parts of the chicken on the inside. By cooking it, the fat permeated the strands of chicken breast, changing its texture, and the external seasoning gave it a fresh taste.”
“It’s a very interesting dish, I really like it.”
“As for player Qin Lang…” His gaze turned toward Qin Lang, carrying a hint of curiosity, “I can’t imagine how to cook chicken breast into such a state.”
“Just like with the Wen Si Tofu in the last competition, you are very good at transforming ingredients into a completely new shape, thus giving them a completely new texture.”
“This Snowflake Chicken, gave me a surprise.”
“So, my vote goes to Qin Lang!”
Qin Lang bowed slightly, expressing his gratitude for the Food Recommender’s recognition..
