Is there something wrong with making food a beast?

Chapter 185 Soup Bun
At the next moment when the competition started, Qin Lang and Ji He's actions were quite consistent.

They picked up their own flour.

In the competition with the theme of pasta, kneading noodles is naturally the most important thing.

Although there are processed noodles on the market, it is obviously not the choice of the two imperial chefs who have won the city-level culinary championship.

Even for flour, the choices of the two are also different.

Qin Lang chose high-gluten flour with higher protein content. The protein in the flour combines with water to form gluten during the kneading process, which directly affects the gluten of the dough.

Ji He's choice is medium-gluten flour with moderate protein content.

While taking out their own flour, the two were also watching their opponent's dough making process from the corner of their eyes.

The surrounding audience and even the five judges in the judging booth also stared carefully at the movements of the two imperial chefs in the field.

It is rare to see such an open competition where you can see the entire cooking process.

Qin Lang's dough kneading is relatively simple. Mix high-gluten flour and water in a ratio of two to one and then knead the dough vigorously. After the dough shows a "three-light" state, wrap it in plastic wrap and put it aside.

On the other hand, Jihe, in addition to adding the necessary water, also added a lot of seasonings and other invisible things during the dough kneading process.

"interesting."

Looking away from the washbasin in Ji He's hand, Qin Lang murmured softly.

Then, he started the next cooking steps.

For the noodle dish that Qin Lang is going to make today, kneading the noodles is very important, but there are still many steps that are as important as kneading the noodles. If it is not for the help of the spicy cooking speed, he will not even consider taking it out on such an occasion. it.

Thinking of this, Qin Lang opened the foam box that was kept fresh by the side, and took out the ingredients to be used next from it.

five...ten...fifteen...twenty...

Amidst the exclamation of the surrounding audience, a total of twenty huge female crabs were taken out of the foam box by Qin Lang.

Ji He, who regarded Qin Lang as a strong enemy and went all out, slowed down his movements the moment Qin Lang opened the foam box, and focused more on the ingredients Qin Lang took out.

As soon as the competition started, he noticed the tightly covered foam box beside Qin Lang.

At this moment, seeing the size of the twenty hairy crabs, his pupils shrank suddenly.

The pasta prepared by the other party actually used hairy crabs?

And it's not just any hairy crab.

Seeing that head, Ji He knew very well that the local food market would never be able to easily provide hairy crabs of such quality.

These hairy crabs are exchanged for cooking competition points!
After winning the cooking competition championship, Ji He, who also received 100 cooking competition points, had a serious look on his face.

It was obviously beyond his expectation that Qin Lang exchanged event points for ingredients in such a competition.

Fortunately...he was not completely unprepared.

Glancing at a small box next to him, Ji He retracted his gaze and continued to concentrate on his face-to-face meeting.

In his eyes, a faint blue light flickered slightly.

Food skills and insight into ingredients.

This food skill that Lake has also demonstrated before has the ability to clearly detect the deeper changes in the ingredients during the cooking process. It is even more powerful for the seemingly simple process of kneading noodles that involves changes in the internal structure of flour.

This is also the reason why he dared to add more seasonings and auxiliary materials during the dough kneading process without fear of overturning.

It wasn't just Ji He who was surprised when he saw the hairy crabs.

The eyes of the five senior judges sitting in the judging seats were shining brightly.

Needless to say, their eyesight was able to advance from low-level judges.

With just one glance, they saw the details of the twenty hairy crabs.

"The hairy crabs produced in Mengze Prefecture, this must be exchanged for cooking competition points?"

"He is willing to use the competition points to exchange ingredients for a competition. Doesn't Qin Lang look like an ordinary person?"

"I seem to have heard of him. If I remember correctly, he is the champion of Dongxia City's cooking competition, and his cooking skills are also superb."

"I see. I didn't expect that this seemingly unofficial competition would allow two city-level culinary champions to fight."

"Interesting."

Several people whispered a few words in voices that only each other could hear, and quickly focused more attention on Qin Lang.

Before that, they paid more attention to the more famous Ji He.

Paying no attention to the exclamations around him, Qin Lang quickly started to handle the old hen after sending the hairy crabs into the steamer.

This noodle dish also needs chicken soup!
After quickly cutting the old hen into pieces and blanching them in water, Qin Lang immediately took out a large piece of pigskin weighing several kilograms.

Standing opposite him, Ji He, who had just completed the meeting process, frowned slightly.

Hairy crab, chicken, pork skin.

In just a moment, Qin Lang had already brought out three different ingredients.

In his opinion, these three ingredients are not very related to each other.

What kind of pasta is this guy going to make?
While thoughts were racing through his mind, Ji He opened the box next to him, and carefully moved out the ingredients inside.

Out of the corner of his eye, Qin Lang paused slightly after noticing this scene, and glanced at the ingredients in Ji He's hands with some surprise.

Is that... pufferfish? !

Jihe's pasta uses fugu?

His expression suddenly became serious.

If you read correctly, this should be the Jinwen puffer fish from Wuhe Prefecture. After artificial breeding, there is basically no tetrodotoxin, but the deliciousness of its meat has not been reduced at all.

These are also ingredients that need to be exchanged for cooking event points.

Just seeing this ingredient, Qin Lang could imagine that the final pasta must be outstanding in terms of umami.

Really a formidable opponent.

Of course, the pasta prepared by yourself is not bad.

He picked up the blanched pigskin with a confident look in his eyes.

There is often only one possibility for using pigskin in pasta.

That is the soup bag!
Use the gelatin in the pigskin to solidify the delicious soup and mix it well with the fillings before adding it to the buns. As the buns are heated, the solidified gelatin turns into soup again inside the buns, and it becomes a delicious soup wrapped in dough. soup dumplings with juice.

And there is only one possibility for the soup dumplings with hairy crabs.

That is the crab roe soup bag!
This is the dish Qin Lang prepared for this competition!

Qin Lang lowered his head again, and scraped off the oil on the surface of the blanched pigskin after cooling it down.

And as Ji He took out the pufferfish, there were exclamations again and again from all around.

Qin Lang, who was busy with his head down, didn't notice that amidst the exclamation, many people showed expressions of "it's true".

Seeing the puffer fish, they already guessed what Ji He was going to serve.

What he wanted to show was the pasta dish that won him the championship in the Qingyang City Cooking Competition——

Qingjiang finless porpoise noodles!
