It was rare to meet the ingredients that he was good at, so Xie Qingfeng decided to seize this opportunity and do it hard and win one of the two captain seats.

The first goal is the food room.

Under the surprised gaze of other contestants, Xie Qingfeng picked up a big pumpkin that was not even matched with the eel, as well as several simple ingredients, and ran back to his cooking area with both hands.

Put down the ingredients and seasonings in his hand, and then ran to the kitchen utensil room without stopping.

"Xie Qingfeng is a little interesting. He actually carried a big pumpkin and ran out. Steven, your experience is richer than us. Can this pumpkin and eel be matched together?" Zhou Huajian had never eaten pumpkin and cooked eels in his life, and he had never even seen it. He could only turn to Liu Yifan, a professional and technical leader in the arena.

"To be honest, I have never seen it. The difference between the types of these two ingredients is too big and it cannot be integrated at all." Liu Yifan was also confused and didn't understand what Xie Qingfeng was trying to do.

"This is a miraculous player, let's wait for his performance."

After Cao Kefan finished speaking with anticipation, Liu Yifan suddenly said, "I hope he is not a fool. I have seen many players who are overconfident."

The three food judges each had their own thoughts. Xie Qingfeng, who was involved, had already come out of the kitchenware room at this time.

Put the selected pots and pans on your own cooking table, and Xie Qingfeng, holding three pairs of gloves, headed straight to the large glass jar with eels in front.

At this moment, there were many people around this place. Some female contestants were frightened by the soft and slippery eels, while some male contestants fell to the ground without catching the loach, and were fighting with their butts raised.

When a living, slippery thing keeps twisting in the palm of your hand, most of you will feel scary when you think of a cold-blooded animal like a snake, and it is reasonable that the contestants are confused.

Moreover, in this year when service is paramount, few people will kill eels in person. Everything will be solved by merchants, and most people will not slaughter eels.

"Come on, each person, bring the gloves so that the loach will not slip." Xie Qingfeng took apart the cotton gloves he brought specially and threw one for Wu Xiaomei and other women.

The preparation time for the ingredients in this game is very short, so Xie Qingfeng cannot help the players in the small team too much. The only thing he can do is to provide them with some tools to avoid spending too much time here.

Cotton gloves can increase friction and can play a great role in grasping ingredients that are not smooth.

The principle is like many people who kill black fish. They will use a piece of cloth to cover the fish and then press the twisting fish body with their hands. The two are the same physical principle.

Wu Xiaomei and others, who had already caught some loaches, quickly got enough of the amount needed for cooking with the help of cotton gloves.

Due to the lack of time, it was too late to send the eels back to the cooking area. He ran to the ingredient room with a bamboo basket and selected various ingredients and auxiliary ingredients needed.

"After three minutes, please return to the cooking area immediately, otherwise it will be treated as elimination."

When he heard Liu Yifan's urging, the scalp was numb, whether it was in the food room or the kitchenware room. No matter whether he could use it or not, he just pulled it into the box in his hand, which was to make up the number to deal with it, and then rushed back to his own cooking area.

The contestants returned to their own cooking and had not yet stood firm, and Liu Yifan's second wave of fatal urging came again.

"The competition timing has officially begun. You only have an hour to cook your creative cuisine. The two best performers will become captains. The worst performers will face a high chance of elimination. Please hurry up every minute and every second of your life."

Cao Kefan continued: "Please remember your theme today. What I need to see is creativity, your own creativity. Copying classic dishes as it is, and not giving you an advantage."

Zhou Huajian encouraged: "Come on, use your imagination and show your strongest strength."

Three food judges shouted in front of the game, and the contestants in the audience began to face the second difficulty - the eels were brought back smoothly, and how to kill them became a big problem.

Except for a few more professional players, they used a pointed knife to fix the eel's head and cut it down along the belly with another knife, and easily completed the slaughter.

Most players who are not very familiar with slaughtering use a variety of methods.

Some people directly patted the emperor's head with the back of the knife, trying to knock it out before processing it; some players were more violent and grabbed it and threw it into the ground. Zhong Meiqi and others, who were supported by Xie Qingfeng, clumsily cut the eel's belly with a knife, which was relatively better.

Looking at the entire arena, the two people are the most calm.

Yang Wei chose a chilled Australian lobster for himself, weighing about two pounds. Although this high-end seafood ingredient is large, it is relatively simple to slaughter, and the dishes produced are also more "fashioned".

With a three-minute advance advantage, Yang Wei had already completed the slaughter of the big lobster before the start of the game.

Another very calm player was Xie Qingfeng. He didn't slaughter at all. He directly tied up all the dozen eels as big as a little finger in his pocket with gauze.

Put the stove on a deep-bottomed pan, pour half a pot of water into it, pat a piece of ginger, and throw it into a scallion.

Just wait for the water in the pot to boil, boil the taste of onion and ginger into the water, then throw the cloth bag inside and boil the eels and it's all done.

The whole process adds up to less than 1 minute!

Other contestants are still fighting hard with eels. Xie Qingfeng has broken the pumpkin into two, peeled off the outer skin and took off the seed core inside, and took out his own exclusive carving knife.

In the next 40 minutes, Xie Qingfeng only served this big pumpkin, showing his third-hand skills and the last basic cooking skills—

Cooking carving is also called a carving artist!

This is a basic skill for chefs, but under the soft changes in social needs, it was divided into a new catering profession.

Like pastry chefs, pastry chefs, and baristas, they are all professional jobs that serve catering and food.

Most carving masters don’t know how to cook, but every professional chef is half a carving master. Xie Qingfeng doesn’t know how to talk about romantic guitars or cool basketballs. His only hobby in the army is carving.

Although he has not taken the professional title, this hobby that has persisted for several years has given him a good foundation in carving.

Xie Qingfeng's superb knife skills and perverted taste buds have all been excellent on the field, bringing him huge game advantages and off-court network influence.
