The first food stall in the wasteland

Chapter 443 Chrysanthemum Buddha's Hand Cake (st update)
Sang Yue was a reasonable person and gave up her seat. Shen Lan snorted and sat down. The makeup artist immediately opened the box and put makeup on her.

Sang Yue frowned. She used to bring her own makeup artist to events that required appearances, but she wasn't as showy as Shen Lan.

She has no bearing at all like a lady from a wealthy family.

But if you think about how she used to live in Xiacheng District, you can understand.

Thinking of this, Sang Yue couldn't help but say a few words to Shen Lu.

"Boss Shen, are you a little too indifferent to your family?"

Maybe something happened between Shen Lu and the Liu family that she didn't know about, but Sang Yue felt that there was no need for special treatment, just being a superficial family member.

Shen Lu smiled faintly and said nothing.

After putting on makeup, a staff member came over to clean up their brains, and then everyone entered the backstage one by one and began to participate in the game under the arrangement of the staff.

This game is a two-by-two confrontation mode, that is, two groups of players cook the same dish, a total of five dishes. The team with the highest score wins and is qualified for the next game. The losing team is eliminated.

"That is to say, after this competition, the list of the top 20 will be released." Sang Yue whispered, "I really didn't expect that I could make it into the top ."

After announcing the rules of the competition, the host asked each group to send a captain to draw lots.

Shen Lu and Sang Yue unanimously elected Tang Wenxiu as captain.

Tang Wenxiu didn't shirk and went up to draw lots.

The number 3 was drawn.

Soon the draw of each group appeared on the big screen, and the team that also drew No. 3 happened to be Song Zhigao's team.

The two looked at each other from a distance, Song Zhigao pursed his lips slightly, looking like he was going to go all out.

Shen Lu smiled and looked away.

Immediately afterwards, the host announced some additional rules. For example, each contestant must cook a dish and cannot fish in the water throughout the whole process.

Sang Yue pouted, this supplementary rule was obviously meant for her.

The five-course meal includes cold dishes, soups, hot dishes, snacks and a choice of dishes.

The final self-selection needs to be decided by both teams. In usual games, this link is always prone to various conflicts, which is very interesting.

The captain of Song Zhigao's team was called Yan Guang. He was the best at white cases. He had huge hands and well-developed muscles. Shen Lu felt that the noodles he kneaded must be very strong.

"What do you think about self-selection?" Yan Guang asked.

Tang Wenxiu said bluntly: "Boiled deer tendon or braised shark's fin are both good."

Yan Guang sneered: "You're welcome."

He knew that Tang Wenxiu was good at palace cuisine, and the two dishes she proposed were both classic palace dishes.

"Since we are participating in a competition, of course we have to cook some high-end dishes."

"What do you mean, Phoenix Tail Shaomai and Chrysanthemum Buddha's Hand Cake are not high quality?"

Phoenix tail shaomai and chrysanthemum bergamot cake are both one of the palace dishes. Tang Wenxiu rarely makes dim sum, but he still knows how to make them.

"Then let's draw lots. There's no point in wrangling."

"Row."

The two fiddled around for a while, but in the end Yan Guang had better luck and got the chrysanthemum bergamot cake.

Yan Guang showed a smile that was determined to win, "I accept it."

Tang Wenxiu's face turned a little dark. He returned to his group's cooking station and sighed heavily.

"Sister Wenxiu, it's okay." Sang Yue comforted, "We only need to beat them with three dishes."

Hearing this, Tang Wenxiu's expression did not relax at all.

After all, the supplementary rules say that each person must cook one dish, and at the same time, they can cook at most two dishes. There is nothing to say about Shen Lu's cooking skills, he will definitely win.

Sang Yue is just a pendant and cannot be counted on.

If she had just been able to choose hot dishes that she was good at, Tang Wenxiu would have felt confident.

The one she chose was chrysanthemum bergamot pastry. She only had a superficial understanding of dim sum, but it was no match for Yan Guang, who had been immersed in it for many years.

Shen Lu had already written down all the ingredients and condiments he needed, divided them into three parts and handed them over, "Don't think about it. Here, I have written down all the things you are responsible for getting. We will split up later."

"Huh? We don't have to decide who is responsible for which dish first, okay?" Sang Yue asked.

"Don't worry, get the ingredients back first, everything else is just a small problem."

The girl's voice was gentle and calm, which strangely soothed the somewhat anxious Tang Wenxiu.

The three contestants were the first to enter the food storage room and had the greatest advantage in selecting ingredients. The other nine groups were slower.

After all, after arguing about the self-selected dishes, we have to argue about who is responsible for which dish.

After a long time of frying, there was no result. Finally, at the urging of the host, he put aside the argument temporarily and quickly got the ingredients.

On the other hand, Shen Lu's group had already picked up the ingredients, put them in categories, and started making preliminary preparations.

"Shen Lu, which two dishes do you want to be in charge of?" Tang Wenxiu asked.

"There is one less person in our team. Sang Yue is good at Western-style baking. Sister Wenxiu, you and I have to work harder. Each of us has to be responsible for two dishes." Shen Lu answered her in no hurry, "I can cook all kinds of dishes, you guys go first Choose, and the rest is mine.”

She said it so lightly that Tang Wenxiu couldn't help but frown.

Can you cook any dish?
Isn’t this too crazy to say?

But Tang Wenxiu could only believe her.

After all, she didn't have a clear idea of ​​Sang Yue's level. It was just good luck that got her to where she is now.

The first thing Tang Wenxiu focused on was soup, canned pheasant and shredded bird's nest.

She is good at palace cuisine, and the most important thing in palace cuisine is soup.

Different dishes require different soups, and making soup is extremely complicated.

Different dishes require stewing for different times and adding different spices at different times. Only in this way can the soup be thick enough and the aroma mellow enough.

Therefore, Tang Wenxiu is very good at making soup, and simmering pheasant and silken bird's nests in a pot is within her ability.

She was hesitating about another dish.

Is it a challenge to try the chrysanthemum bergamot pastry that I have never made before, or the simplest cold dish, or the hot dish that makes lotus flowers every step of the way?
Tang Wenxiu glanced at Sang Yue who was washing the ingredients and gave up the simplest cold dish.

"Shen Lu, have you ever made chrysanthemum bergamot cake?" she asked worriedly.

"I did." Shen Lu lied smoothly, "I did pretty well."

Shen Lu knew that Tang Wenxiu asked this because she had never done it herself.

Although she has never done it, since using the advanced cooking manual, many things have been automatically engraved in her bones, and she can make them anytime she wants.

Tang Wenxiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll be responsible for the canned pheasant shredded bird's nest and almond tofu, and Sang Yue will make the cold dish of osmanthus sauce chicken. What do you think?"

Sang Yue was a little panicked, "I've never made sweet-scented osmanthus sauce chicken!"

"What about almond tofu?"

"Okay, I did it once!"

"Okay, then you make almond tofu, and I'll make osmanthus sauce chicken." Tang Wenxiu looked at Shen Lu, "What do you think?"

"Then I am responsible for the step by step lotus and chrysanthemum bergamot cakes? Okay, I have no problem."
