Chapter 85 Knife Skills Test! (Third Update, Please Vote for Recommendation)

"If we need chefs, we can definitely recruit them. I believe there will definitely be people willing to follow us. Why do we have to rob them like this?" The thin man hesitated.

"How can the recruited ones compare with the famous chefs who compete in this kind of competition? We are the **** heroes who want to overthrow the world government. If we need to find a chef, we must find the best chef. Ordinary chefs are not in my eyes." The sturdy man said with high spirits.

"But..."

"Don't say but, but, big brother, it's decided. After the top ten are selected in this competition, we will take them all away. Oh, by the way, the five famous chef judges will also be taken away. Then we can let different chefs cook for us every day. It's great to think about it, hahahaha!" The sturdy man laughed heartily.

"Alas." The thin man obviously disagreed, but he didn't say anything more.

Because he knew that his younger brother would not change the decision he had made casually, even if he was his biological brother.

On the first day of the competition, 578 participating chefs had been eliminated, leaving only 60 chefs for the second round of competition.

However, most of these eliminated chefs chose to stay and continue watching the competition, because this is a rare chef festival.

Although it is not as good as the "World Chef King Competition", in the East China Sea, this is already the largest chef competition that many chefs can see in their lifetime. After all, not everyone can reach the Grand Line. For many people, it is only a legendary place.

And most of the 60 chefs who made it out of the first round are famous chefs. Some even came from other seas or even the Grand Line, such as Jonathan's wife Jessica whom Lei Fa had met.

There are very few people like Lei Fa who had no reputation before but still made it into the top 60. There are only three or five in total.

This is why Lieutenant Owen and his team are so excited for Lei Fa.

"The rules of this round of competition will be more cruel. It will not only consider the taste of the dishes you make, but also your knife skills, fire skills, creativity and other abilities." The speaker is the host of this competition.

The rules were actually set in advance, he just read them out.

"The first dish is a knife skill test. You need to choose the one you think is suitable from the ten ingredients prepared for you and then cook it. The requirement is that your knife skills must be demonstrated, and the taste must also be delicious... Our ten judges will taste your dishes one by one, and each of them will give a score from 1 to 10. Those with a total score below 60 will be eliminated!"

"The second dish is a fire skill test. The rules are similar to the knife skill test, except that the knife skill test is changed to fire skill test."

"The third dish is a creative test, and the reason is the same as above."

"The fourth dish is a free dish, which is also the ultimate cooking test. The selection rules for this one are no longer elimination, but the top ten scores are selected, just like the first round of the competition."

"Of course, if the first three dishes have been eliminated to less than ten people, the schedule will continue normally until the top three are selected. That's about it."

The host recited the rules with a smile.

In fact, this rule is roughly the same as the rules of previous chef competitions. The rules of chef competitions in other seas are basically the same. The only difference is the judging method.

Because testing the cooking skills of chefs is a somewhat subjective thing in itself, it is not completely objective and obvious like sports competitions, where it is clear who is better and who is worse.

The rules of chef competitions can only be as objective as possible.

"If there is no problem, then we can start the first dish, which is the knife test dish, and the cooking time is two hours!"

"Now I announce that the second round of the 'East China Sea Chef Competition' has officially begun!"

With the announcement of the host, sixty chefs began to select ingredients.

Lei Fa stood in his cooking area, holding his chin and scanning the ten ingredients in front of him, and began to think.

"Among these ten ingredients, tofu is undoubtedly the most difficult to show knife skills, because tofu carving must be done in water, which is equivalent to blind carving... and it is difficult to make tofu both beautiful and delicious, but for me, this is not a problem." After just a little thought, he chose the ingredients he wanted to use.

Tofu!

The reason is simple. Because for him, vision is not his strongest point, but hearing is!

With the hell ears, he can monitor all the movements around him even in a completely dark environment by using the ultrasound released by his sound wave manipulation.

He can completely present the invisible situation in the water in his mind with the concept of three-dimensional projection, and he can easily "see" the situation in the water even with his eyes closed.

Moreover, after a year of training in the "Shilin Temple", his knife skills are no joke. You know, the ghost place of "Shilin Temple" has a lot of strange ingredients.

He has even cooked completely transparent and movable plants. Compared with that kind of ingredients, tofu is already easy to deal with.

As for seasoning, he is also confident.

"Then, let's get started." Lei Fa clapped his hands.

...

More than two hours later, when ten judges came to Refa, he presented his work.

"Before everyone tastes it, let me briefly introduce it. The dish I chose is a tofu dish called 'Blood Jade Tiger'!" Refa said before taking off the cover of the dish.

"Tofu cuisine? Young people are indeed courageous. This is one of the most difficult choices among the many ingredients this time. You are the twenty-first chef we are considering today, but you are the first to dare to choose tofu. "Among the judges, an old man praised it.

"Yes, tofu cuisine requires very strict knife skills. If you make a mistake, the whole dish will be lost. What's even more difficult is how to cook it into a delicious dish while ensuring the exquisite knife skills. This It’s really difficult!” Another reviewer also said.

"The name of your dish is 'Blood Jade Tiger'. Did you carve it into a tiger? But the tofu is obviously white, why is it prefixed with blood jade?" A female reviewer's focus and preface There are some differences between the two reviewers.

"I won't say much more about this, let you see for yourselves." Refa smiled and opened the cover of the food.

What was displayed in front of the judges was a lifelike tiger!

What’s even more shocking is that the color of this tiger is really blood color, not the milky white color that tofu should have!
