Chapter 1189: How could you do it!
After Yuan Zhou said that, he didn't stop but walked directly to the kitchen range behind the chair. Obviously, he was going to cook directly.
"It seems like head chef Yuan is very confident." Zheng You stood up and said with a smile.
"I don't think it's confidence, it's arrogance." The leader of Yun province, Gu Shan, snorted coldly.
Gu Shan was about 40 years old, with a small beard on his chin. His hair was very clean, and he had a medium build, but his arms looked very strong, and the obvious muscles on them could be seen.
"Head chef Yuan, may I know what dish you plan to cook to exchange with us?" The one who asked this question was the relatively cautious head chef yang of Guizhou cuisine.
"We don't know how to cook Sichuan cuisine." Zheng You looked at Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan and then said directly.
Zheng You's meaning was quite clear. He was forcing Yuan Zhou to say that he would use Guizhou cuisine to compete with cloud cuisine.
One should know that during the cooking exchange, there was no rule that said Yuan Zhou had to use Guizhou cuisine to compete with the cloud cuisine. However, if Yuan Zhou said so himself, it would be easier to handle.
"That's right. Since you're so arrogant as to name your restaurant 'master chef', your cloud dishes should be able to show off." Gu Shan said without any hesitation.
Yuan Zhou walked to the left side of the kitchen range unhurriedly and selected a stove. Only after that did he raise his head and look at these chefs.
"Probably better than you, or more accurately, definitely better than you." Yuan Zhou looked straight at Gu Shan and said straightforwardly without changing his expression.
"Heh, better than this old master, but you'll have to have the strength to say such arrogant words." Gu Shan immediately glared and said.
"Of course. What are you cooking today?" Yuan Zhou nodded his head deservedly and then asked.
"You want to cook the same dish as me?" Gu Shan was a little surprised and even forgot to mock Yuan Zhou.
"Since it's an exchange, then it's only natural that we can exchange our skills by cooking the same dish." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said.
"It's really like a Toad yawning. " Gu Shan snorted and did not say anything.
"My master is making his signature dish today, the Golden cloud leg, which is also a famous dish in Yun province." Gu Shan didn't say anything, but a young man beside him who looked like a disciple spoke.
"Do you have the right to interrupt when the master is speaking?" As soon as the man opened his mouth, master Cheng immediately took two steps forward and glared at him.
Master Cheng had a strong figure and a fierce face. The young man subconsciously took a step back. Apparently, he was a little frightened.
"You are master Cheng?" Gu Shan turned to look at master Cheng and said.
"Of course." When master Cheng spoke to Gu Shan, his attitude wasn't that fierce, but it wasn't very good either.
"I'm head chef Yuan's disciple." Master Cheng said directly without waiting for Gu Shan to reply.
Gu Shan's words were stuck in his throat. He pursed his lips and said,""Gold Cloud leg."
Only then did Yuan Zhou nod his head, indicating that he got it. Then, he said,""Please report the dishes you have prepared this time. After two hours, you will finish cooking and begin the exchange."
"Two hours? Head chef Yuan, are you preparing to cook all of our dishes?" Zheng You looked around at the chefs around him and said.
"Boss Yuan, I know you can cook very fast, but we don't cook Sichuan cuisine." Head chef Yang's face was filled with dissatisfaction.
Exactly. Yuan Zhou was totally looking down on them. They were cooking dishes that were unfamiliar to them and not only that, they were also cooking their own specialty dishes.
This was no longer looking down on him, but direct contempt.
"Naturally," Yuan Zhou nodded his head and didn't have the desire to say more.
"I heard that head chef Yuan doesn't really know how to cook our Guizhou cuisine." Zheng You furrowed his brows and asked tentatively.
"I'm not really proficient. " Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said naturally.
"Then why are you still so arrogant?" Gu Shan said again in dissatisfaction.
"I'm not done, but I've communicated enough with you." Yuan Zhou took a look at Gu Shan and then said directly.
While they were talking, or rather, while Yuan Zhou was talking, the remaining chefs had already submitted all the dishes they were going to cook today.
Yuan Zhou also got their menu.
"We can start now." Yuan Zhou took a look at it and then said straightforwardly after he had a clear idea in his heart.
Moreover, after Yuan Zhou said that, he directly turned around and started to select the ingredients. Obviously, he was preparing to start cooking.
"This person is really arrogant. Even if he's young, he shouldn't be so immature." Head chef yang took a deep breath and said.
"What does it matter? he said himself that he's not proficient in it. If he's arrogant now, he'll know the consequences when he loses." Zheng You said with confidence.
"That's right. " Gu Shan responded from the side.
"Then let's start." Zheng You smiled and nodded at Gu Shan, then said.
"Of course. Two hours is enough for me to prepare all the dishes." Head chef yang nodded as well. Then, he led his assistant to a kitchen counter.
As there were 13 people participating in the exchange this time, the chef's Alliance had added a cooking utensil position between the two rows of cooking utensils.
Originally, Zhou Shijie thought that Yuan Zhou would choose this seat and even specially instructed him to make it better. However, Yuan Zhou obviously didn't get Zhou Shijie's good intention.
Yuan Zhou chose the first kitchen stove on the left, because it required a lot of space to cook and the seasoning required by Chinese food was suitable and complicated to process.
Therefore, even if the two cooking stoves were adjacent to each other, there was still a distance of one meter between them. This way, it could ensure that every chef could do their best.
And because it was an exchange, the remaining 12 head chefs each only brought one assistant chef. After all, there wasn't much preparation work for a dish.
Yuan Zhou's side was quite conspicuous. He brought the main ingredients according to the 12 dishes on the menu in two separate servings. Then, everyone started to stare at Yuan Zhou.
The reporters always wanted to make a big news, so they naturally had to watch it carefully. No matter whether Yuan Zhou won or lost, it was still a big news.
Of course, if he lost, the news would be even bigger. Therefore, most of the reporters watched carefully and were waiting for Yuan Zhou to make a mistake.
The other chefs also looked at Yuan Zhou one after another, waiting to see how Yuan Zhou would cook their signature dish. Of course, they still didn't believe that Yuan Zhou could cook it.
As he had to consider the time it took for the dish to be completed and the interval between cooking, the first dish that Yuan Zhou cooked was Zheng You's signature dish, which was called heavenly numb Mandarin Duck pigeon.
This dish was a famous dish in your province, and it had a legend accompanying it, so it was very famous in your province.
This was Zheng You's best dish. The heavenly numb Mandarin Duck pigeon he made was shaped like a Mandarin Duck playing in the water, which avoided the bitter taste of the heavenly numb belt very well. The soup was as clear as water, but it tasted rich and fresh. The pigeon meat was fresh and tender, while the chicken meat was tender and bouncy.
Yuan Zhou was holding two pigeons in his hands. The pigeons provided here were all slaughtered, cut, and washed clean. However, Yuan Zhou still pinched the sharp wings of the pigeons and washed them seriously.
"This dish is not as easy to make as it looks on the surface. It's a medicinal dish." Zheng You looked at it for a while, then snorted coldly in his heart.
