Chapter 82: Umami Platter
The assessment continues.
In the next half an hour, five other chefs presented their works one after another.
Perhaps there were two qualified people at the beginning, which made the audience mistakenly think that the test questions were very simple, but no one expected that after the two qualified people at the beginning, the next five chefs were all judged as "unqualified" by the luxurious examiner lineup!
"You'll be very rough with pan-fried cod."
Ryoko Lina ruthlessly criticized a beautiful female chef: "The marinating is not qualified, the heat is not qualified, and the Western cuisine is just a mere appearance and has no space structure. You should not do something you are not good at. You must know how to use ingredients in your field of specialization."
“Tomato cod gum soup?”
Masato Kamihara waved to a chef, "First of all, you made an irreparable mistake when choosing ingredients. You picked the right cod meat and passed the right silver cod. But another important ingredient, tomato, you made a mistake."
"We deliberately mixed in a batch of unqualified ingredients, such as tomatoes. They look round and plump on the surface and feel very strong to the touch, but the inner ripening level is different, and the chef needs to carefully select it."
"Your tomato and cod soup has been mixed with tomatoes that are not mature enough, and the taste is astringent, and the umami flavor of a pot of fish soup is completely destroyed..."
These words made a group of chefs in the audience sweat.
In the assessment of Samsung and below, the igo organization has set up a pit for the chef to jump in this way, not once or twice.
In short, the chef cannot miss any details during the assessment, and the whole process must be rigorous and perfect.
The chef who was judged as "unqualified" had never been able to argue after hearing detailed comments.
In fact, the chef's rating is a war, which is cruel, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a one-plank bridge across a single-plank bridge. To use today's venue crowd, there are many one-star chefs and one-star chefs, and they can fill the audience, but two-star chefs and three-star chefs are rare varieties in the venue.
What's more, the examiners of this assessment are the two people with the highest identities in the Neon Team of Kamihara Maito and Ryoko Lina.igo.
If you have any opinions on the examiner's evaluation, you can file a complaint after the assessment is over, but if you contradict the examiner on the spot and be blacklisted by IGO, it will not be so easy to participate in the promotion assessment next time.
The fifth chef walked off the stage with a gray face.
Dojima Gin sat in the seat with his arms wrapped around him, shook his head and said, "All of them are very mediocre chefs. At the beginning, those two qualified people were just qualified."
"That boy from Watanabe is pretty good, but unfortunately he lacks the heart of cooking." Kamihara Masato sighed.
"It's just a look, gorgeous on the outside, hollow on the inside." Ryoko Lina said coldly.
“Now there are only two chefs left.”
Gin Dojima then looked around the venue, there were ten kitchen counters indoors, and there were only two kitchen counters in the position, and the chef was busy.
One is naturally Xia Yu.
The other person was the female chef who seemed to have graduated from college. She even took action more than ten minutes later than Xia Yu. When she took the knife to deal with the cod, she moved very gently, as if she was afraid of hurting the cod that was still alive.
At this time, the remaining cooking time was less than twenty minutes. The broadcast screen above the venue came back to switch between the close-up of Xia Yu and the female chef.
"Sashimi?"
The broadcasting camera switched to the female chef's kitchen counter, and people then discovered that the female chef was humming a small song in her mouth and had already cut out the tenderest part of the silver cod meat.
A small piece of white, tender and smooth belly meat was placed on the chopping board. The female chef held a sharp kitchen knife in his hand and slowly cut it down, cutting a piece of sashimi with one knife, and it took about ten minutes to finish the belly meat of the cod.
Next is to load the plate.
The fresh snail meat, Arctic shells, fresh shrimps and fresh squid were placed in a white ceramic plate, and then the cod sashimi were sliced. The female chef hummed a song, and her white fingers became lighter. She rolled the cod sashimi into a rose shape and stacked it into the plate, with exquisite style.
Finally, arrange some cucumber slices and decorate them with emerald green leaves, and a colorful umami sashimi platter is completed.
The cod sashimi rolled into white roses is undoubtedly the queen of this dish of umami.
"Dou, chefs, please pay attention. The remaining time for this assessment is 10 minutes. Please submit your work to the examiner's seat as soon as possible..."
The timer above the venue suddenly heard a mechanical prompt sound, without any emotion.
"Is 10 minutes? It's enough."
The female chef who finished the umami platter calmly brought a few seasoning plates, poured them into soy sauce, put a little green mustard in one plate, and the third plate was filled with some cold seaweed.
"alright!"
The female chef clapped her hands and showed a sweet smile.
"Chef Tamakawa, please submit your work." A staff member came over and urged.
"OK."
Female chef Misa Tamakawa nodded, picked up the umami platter and followed the staff.
Hey.
She looked around the venue and found a chef who finished cooking with the same buzzer as her. Looking at her face, she was obviously not old. Suddenly, Misa Tamakawa stopped and the audience also exclaimed.
"What's going on with this scent?"
"You guys see..."
The broadcasting camera switched to another kitchen counter at the right time, Xia Yu pulled open the oven, took out the baked dishes, and put them on the plate.
It was not just the freshly baked food that smelled like a fragrant smell. Xia Yu's hand was covered with a green strip on the bottom of the white ceramic plate, and the tea fragrance was everywhere.
Then, on the screen, he drew the red salmon roe on the freshly baked dishes, and pasted a piece of mint leaves, and poured a little black vinegar sauce between the salmon roe and mint leaves. The unique fragrance surrounding the venue became even more intense.
"That dish...is meatball?"
"No, is there such a big meatball? It's so strange in shape. Is it a Chinese cuisine shabby?"
There was a loud noise in the audience.
Miyoko Hojo was stunned and stared at the food that Natsuyu took out of the oven, and lost her voice in her heart, "...Lion's head?"
Just under the attention of the audience, Xia Yu and female chef Misa Tamakawa put the dishes firmly on the examiner's table almost at the last minute.
"You please--"
Xia Yu glanced at the umami platter next to his plate in shock, so he picked up the dishes and smiled and retreated to the side.
"Are you sure?" Tamakawa Misa's lips raised a playful curve. "If several examiners tasted my dishes first, maybe they would eat other foods next, and they would be tasteless."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu's expression slightly condensed.
He observed Misa Tamakawa and saw that the big sister chef was not like a joke. His big black eyes were written with a color called confidence, but he still shrugged, "It's better for my palace to end this assessment."
"I hope you don't regret it later. As an apology and apology, I can let you taste my umami platter." Tamakawa Misa smiled.
As she said that, she took a light step and stood in front of the examiner's seat, facing Gin Uedoshima, Masato Kamihara and Lina Ryoko.
"Cod sashimi?"
Chapter completed!
