On a white plate with red flowers, there were nine fresh lilies as white as Jade. They looked delicate and exquisite, like white jade. They were very beautiful.

An ordinary Lily was usually only the size of a walnut with a layer of skin, and it was a little yellow. It was basically beige in color, and the size of each petal was not uniform. Generally, the outer layer was larger, the middle was smaller, and the tip was even smaller, more like a garlic petal.

However, the one Yuan Zhou took out was different. Not only was it as white as Jade, even the size of each petal was the same, as if they had been measured with a ruler. As the saying went,one more petal is too long, one less petal is too short. This saying was used to describe a beauty. Although it wasnt appropriate to use it here, it was very appropriate.

Its like youre using a ruler to measure the length. Li Youcai couldnt help but say.

The system didnt like the word original. What did he mean by as if Im using a ruler to measure the length? he was clearly using a ruler to measure the length!

However, the system, which was being bullied by Yuan Zhou, didnt show up, because if it did, it would mean that it would have to call the host Lord.

This is a mixed breed, right? it looks a little like the top-grade xiangprovince Dragon Tooth Lily, but it doesnt seem like it. Zeng Youwei frowned.

As a Yunnan chef who had cooked countless Lily dishes, it was absolutely no problem for him to recognize a Lily. Dragon Tooth Lily could be said to be one of the most famous species of lilies, but now Zeng Youwei was a little uncertain.

Whats with that look? this is clearly a variant of the rolling dan Lily. You dont believe it when I say youre old. Li Youcai glanced at Zeng Youwei triumphantly.

The two head chefs are right. This is a newly cultivated species, a combination of rolled pill and Dragons Tooth. It has the beautiful appearance of rolled pill and the unique medicinal effect of Dragons Tooth. Its just right to make steamed meat with Lily. Yuan Zhou answered. He was worried that the two chefs, one fat and one thin, would start fighting.

Speaking of which, Yuan Zhou had heard that the xuanming elders in Dian province often had friendly exchanges with each other. But here came the problem. The thin one, Zeng Youwei, was as thin as a monkey while the fat one was so fat. Why did they still not get any results after so many friendly exchanges? This didnt make sense!

I see. Ill go first then. Sorry for embarra.s.sing myself in front of head chef Yuan. Zeng Youwei said first.

Just as Li Youcai was about to speak, Zeng Youwei beat him to it.

Of course, when Zeng Youwei started to cook, it was very quiet. Neither Yuan Zhou nor Li Youcai would disturb him. Not everything made by a master chef was delicious, but as a master chef, his basic skills were definitely solid. Moreover, he was good at cooking. Zeng Youwei seemed to be at ease. After all, he was too familiar with this dish.

A home-cooked dish could be completed in about 20 minutes even if he put in 120% of his energy.

Ill also show my incompetence. Li Youcai saw that Zeng Youwei was done and immediately jumped over to start cooking.

Li Youcais chubby body was not noticeable normally, but when he cooked, he looked especially like Liu Li, who had not undergone special training.

Elder Zeng and elder li performed beyond their usual standards today, firstly because of the good ingredients and secondly because Yuan Zhou was at the side.

As time pa.s.sed by, Yuan Zhou also finished cooking. All three servings of steamed pork with Lily were done.

Lets wait for the judge. Yuan Zhou said.

Judge? Did head chef Yuan invite Chairman Zhou or Mr. Lee Yanyi? Li Youcai asked curiously.

Or head chef Zhang? Zeng Youwei added that head chef Zhang was naturally the retired Zhang Yan. Why didnt he mention master Cheng? although master Cheng was the chairman, he was also Yuan Zhous apprentice. In terms of seniority, how could an apprentice comment on a master?

Chairman Zhou is quite busy. As for Mr. Lee Yanyi Um, its a little difficult for him to walk. Hes not head chef Zhang either. Yuan Zhou said,the judge doesnt need to be invited. He will come by himself.

Yuan Zhou counted silently in his heart,1,2,3, 420.

When he counted to 20, Yuan Zhou looked at the door. Li Youcai and Zeng Youwei also looked at the door, wanting to know which judge it was.

But No one?

Eh? Because you were too excited, you fell down on the road? Yuan Zhou thought of a possibility and then said lightly,Hes almost here.

Li Youcai and Zeng Youwei continued to follow Yuan Zhous gaze and looked at the door.

However, a minute pa.s.sed and there was nothing.

What could be more embarra.s.sing than this?

The actions of the two elders were very consistent. They turned their heads and looked at Yuan Zhou in confusion. In this way, even Yuan Zhou, a person with a poker face, almost couldnt stand such a puzzled look.

He didnt come when he was supposed to come, and he ran away faster than anyone when he wasnt supposed to come. Yuan Zhou muttered in his heart and then said,Maybe the referee has something on today. Forget it, its fine if we dont have a referee.

Well do as you say, head chef Yuan.Alright. Li Youcai and Zeng Youwei did not have any objections.

The judge that Yuan Zhou was referring to was naturally the crow. Even when Yuan Zhou cooked personally outside of business hours, Wu Hai could still sense it and then ran over here happily. Of course, if he came here to see Yin ya, the crow wouldnt disturb him. It could be seen that the crow had grown up.

The reason why Wu Hai didnt come was a story. Well, to be precise, it was an accident. He was very happy after lunch today. Then, Wu Hai, who was in a very high mood, finished another work and became even happier. Therefore, he jumped on the bed And sprained his waist.

Zheng Jiawei found Wu Lin. Under the pressure of Wu Lin, Wu Hai went to the hospital obediently. Therefore, it wasnt that Wu Shous power had deteriorated, but that the conditions didnt allow him to.

Back to the main topic, the three of them had different personalities and chose different utensils, so it was obvious who made it.

For example, Li Youcai, who had a mischievous temperament, chose a plate with a slight apricot color, on which three lilies were placed in a square.

Zeng Youwei, who was a little serious, chose a steady light blue color, which looked particularly beautiful against the White lilies.

As for the low-key Yuan Zhou, he naturally chose the color black which was in line with his personality. The combination of black and white would always be a cla.s.sic. As for the plate presentation, Yuan Zhou was far superior.

After everything was done, Yuan Zhou knew what the two elders were arguing about.

When Li Youcai cooked this dish, he used a method that everyone knew. He peeled off the lily petals and washed them. Then, he dipped them in the well-mixed meat and put them together into the shape of the lily. After that, he steamed them in the pot.

Zeng Youwei, on the other hand, took a different approach. The first step was similar to Li Youcai s, which was to break the lily into petals. However, the latter step was different. He directly rolled the minced meat into small b.a.l.l.s and placed them in the middle of the lily, just like the pistil, which looked a little more pleasing to the eye than Li Youcai s.

I told you my food was authentic, but you didnt believe me. When Zeng Youwei took a look at the steamed pork with Lily cooked by Yuan Zhou, he was instantly happy.

Li Youcai was also a little dumbfounded when he saw that. He saw three lilies as white as Jade were placed firmly on Yuan Zhous Black plate with a small meatball in the middle. At first glance, they did look a little similar to Zeng Youwei s.

You Li Youcai was at a loss for words.

The two of you should try it first. Yuan Zhou didnt say anything when he saw their reaction. Instead, he handed the chopsticks to them and let them have a taste.

Alright, he said.

Regardless of the complacent Zeng Youwei or the frustrated Li Youcai, they both respected Yuan Zhous culinary skills very much. Therefore, although they didnt know Yuan Zhous intention, they still picked up the chopsticks and went to the dishes cooked by Yuan Zhou.

As for their own dishes, they didnt even need to taste them to know each other very well.

Yuan Zhou took the chopsticks and went to taste it. If he didnt taste it, how was he going to communicate with it?

Zeng Youweis chopsticks were a step faster than Li Youcai s. As soon as they touched the lily, the lily, which had just been closed, slowly opened like a real flower.
