Chapter 2014: Yuan Zhou is too fast

Translator: 549690339

No matter how many people had questions, it couldn’t hinder the two dedicated chefs. On Yuan Zhou’s side, he took care of all the procedures of cutting, washing, carving and cooking. On head chef Qin Hua’s side, he washed and cut the vegetables, and finally handed them to head chef Qin Hua to cook.

“Young man, your energy is good.” When Qin Hua noticed that Yuan Zhou was equivalent to a team of chefs, he couldn’t help sighing with emotion.

However, after he finished speaking, Qin Hua also reacted. It seemed that even if he were ten or twenty years younger, he would not be able to take control of the overall situation alone in this kind of competition.

“He won the silver spoon this year. It’s almost impossible to become a banker.” Qin Hua sighed, then lowered his head and focused on the ingredients.

As they busied themselves, head chef Qin Hua began to prepare the oil pan, intending to heat the oil to a certain temperature first. Yuan Zhou was not slow either. On the contrary, if one looked carefully, he would be faster because the crab roe had already been completely picked out.

Once again, Yuan Zhou’s extraordinary knife skills were demonstrated. With just a few flashes of silver light, the whole crab roe was dug out. It was so complete that it seemed as if it had grown on the plate. There was not a single piece of crab meat and it was separated very cleanly.

There were only two head chefs at the scene. If they didn’t look at head chef Qin Hua, they would have to look at Yuan Zhou. More people focused their eyes on Yuan Zhou and found something different.

“I just have to stare at head chef Yuan. I feel a little dizzy. Head chef Yuan’s speed ...” A middle-aged chef could not help but rub his eyes.

He had seen Yuan Zhou standing on the left side of the kitchen range to wash the condiments one second ago and in the next second, he had seen Yuan Zhou standing by the stove on the right side of the kitchen range to set the pot.

“It’s because head chef Yuan is too fast. Otherwise, why do you think head chef Yuan never needs a helper? with his speed, what would a helper do?” The Thin Man beside him swallowed his saliva and held back his exclamation, pretending to be very calm.

The gazes of the chefs were nothing to Yuan Zhou. When he was in the restaurant, Wu Hai’s gaze alone was already comparable to an x-ray. Compared to that, the gazes of the chefs were nothing.

When it came to the turning of the spoon, everyone’s eyes were basically focused on Yuan Zhou. Head chef Qin Hua had not entered the main topic and was still processing the crab roe.

Before turning the ladle, oil had to be added to “refine the ladle”. Therefore, the heat control was the key.

......

He placed the well-washed pan on the fire. When he saw that the heat had reached the level he needed, he added a little oil. His wrists moved nimbly so that the heat was uniform. When the oil had covered the entire pan, he began to shake the spoon so that the entire pan was lubricated no matter where it was.

The ordinary movements of “refining a ladle” and “shaking the ladle” were very beautiful when Yuan Zhou did it. His wrists were flexible and the pot in his hands came up with new patterns. Together with the raging fire of the stove, it felt like acrobatic moves on the fire.

It wasn’t that Yuan Zhou was showing off his cooking skills on purpose, as it wasn’t necessary. It was just that when one’s cooking skills had reached such a high level, even the ordinary movements couldn’t be learned by others. Thus, he looked very impressive.

The prepared winter melons were arranged into the shape of a tree by Yuan Zhou. The thick and strong trunk, the forked branches, and the Jade white color made the tree look like a Jade sculpture. It was placed on the plate in a lively manner.

The essence of this dish,’steak’, was to see how it looked like on the plate and how it would look after being turned over in the pot. During this process, it had to be dipped in even Gorgon juice. After that, it had to be in its original shape when it was taken out of the pot and placed on the plate to be considered a success.

Many people weren’t good at cooking this dish. Usually, they would just arrange it in a long shape, which was the least likely to make mistakes. However, it was the same for Yuan Zhou.

He had only set up the tree because the color of the five Leaves was like jade. Other things were not within his consideration.

The winter melon was already cooked, and the next step was the key to the whole dish, the key to the stripping.

Yuan Zhou held the handle of the ladle with his left hand and lifted his arm to the left with ease, bringing the pot above his head. When his body was at a 45-degree angle, he flicked his wrist to flip the dish over, gently caught it, and let it fall naturally.

He retracted his wrist to prevent the dish from falling too fast and too violently. The entire set of movements was completed in an instant, like a fish leaping through the Dragon Gate, like picking the moon in the sky, floating and stretching, relaxed and natural, as if he was just turning a spatula to stir-fry vegetables.

While Yuan Zhou did it with ease and natural, the following audience, including the judges, were not so relaxed.

“??”

Gao Fei, who was looking at Yuan Zhou attentively, was immediately dumbfounded,””He must have practiced this for thirty to forty years. Given head chef Yuan’s age, it’s too late for him to start practicing since he was in his mother’s womb!”

The entire set of movements was as smooth as floating clouds and flowing water. It was simply like a painting. It was really amazing.

“As expected of head chef Yuan. His cooking skills are definitely the best in China.” Bai subo sighed.

The chefs on this side all suspected that they were in a dream. While they were still in a daze, the rostrum was in an uproar.

“This ... Isn’t it lost? how did head chef Yuan manage to develop it?” Head chef Wang felt that his eyes weren’t enough.

Among the five judges, Zhou Shijie, the winner of the last competition, was the one with the best skills in shaking the ladle. At that moment, when he saw Yuan Zhou’s actions, he felt that he had never known where Yuan Zhou’s bottom line was.

“This is like fishing for the moon in the ocean. It doesn’t seem like what’s recorded in the ancient books, but it seems more practical.” Zhou Shijie exclaimed in surprise. He was not calm at all.

“Old Zhou, can you do this?” Head chef Yue stared at Yuan Zhou without blinking, afraid that he would miss any action.

“Don’t say such things if you’re a friend,”answered Zhou Shijie.

“The chefs of Shandong cuisine are really lucky this time. Luckily, I got someone to record it.” As the chairman, head chef Wang was a responsible person.

“He is indeed powerful.”

The other head chefs all felt that Yuan Zhou was really strong.

Yuan Zhou’s wonderful turning of the spoon had ended, which also indicated that the dish was ready.

“I’m already done being a judge. ” Yuan Zhou said.

Many people, including Xiaoli, snapped out of their daze. Then Xiaoli very professionally called the waitress over to serve the dishes.

This time, they were not placed in small plates, but on a large, snow-white plate.

“This is way too good.” This was the young lady’s first thought when she saw the plate.

On the snow-white plate, if it wasn’t for the obvious bulge, one wouldn’t be able to see anything at all. From this, one could tell how good Yuan Zhou was at cooking.

The dishes hadn’t been served yet, but the five judges had already held their chopsticks in their hands. What a joke, this was the time to fight for food. If they weren’t prepared, they would definitely eat two less pieces. This was intolerable.

While Yuan Zhou was done, head chef Qin Hua also entered the crucial turning of the spoon.

Just like Bai subo yesterday, Qin Hua was also unlucky. To be honest, Qin Hua’s flipping skills were superb and extremely skillful. Each movement was full of rhythm and looked very good.

However, it paled in comparison to Yuan Zhou’s series of purely natural actions that seemed to have returned to nature.
