What happened in the back kitchen courtyard did not affect Feng Shuangxi in the wing room. He was standing in front of a stove and was concentrating on cooking dishes.

When Feng Shuangxi was fifteen years old, he started to help in the kitchen. As his cooking skills continued to improve, he became the chef of a restaurant. Later, by chance, he entered Yuelaiju.

It can be said that Feng Shuangxi has been busy in the kitchen all his life. He has become open-minded about other things at this age, but he still retains a passion for the kitchen.

Today, Feng Shuangxi got up very early and worked hard. He locked himself in the private kitchen in the wing room and cooked dishes alone, which was also preparing for this competition.

Feng Shuangxi placed an iron pot in front of him, and a fat fish was stewed in the iron pot. A scent of the aroma overflowed from the iron pot, making people's appetite so much that they couldn't wait to taste it.

This pot of delicious fish soup is the content of the competition prepared by Feng Shuangxi. The content he selected was not for the two of them to cook in person, but for the two of them to taste the dishes.

Tasting food is also a kind of knowledge. A good food expert may not be a famous chef, but if you want to become a famous chef, you must first become a food expert.

The so-called food expert is not as simple as saying it tastes delicious. Instead, by tasting the dishes, you can know the ingredients of the dishes, and tell the characteristics of the dishes, as well as the origin, origin, and advantages and disadvantages of the ingredients.

It can be said that this is a profound science, which is the most test of a chef's comprehensive ability. It is better to judge the cooking skills of two people than to let Yan Nantian and the others make a few special dishes.

After half a stick of fragrance, Feng Shuangxi put the stewed fish soup into a white porcelain basin and threw out the spice bag of the stewed fish, then he carried the porcelain basin out.

...

At this time, the courtyard of the back kitchen was also quite lively. Many temporary kitchen helpers gathered together, whispering in groups of three or five. Liu Qiming and Zhang Hengchun stood together, as if they were also talking in a low voice.

As for Liu Qiang and Yan Nantian, they also sat under a tree to talk. The purpose of Liu Qiang came this time was to take Yan Nantian to see Zhou Xuebin. However, after hearing about the competition between Yan Nantian and Zhang Hengchun, he was in a hurry to take Yan Nantian away, but instead wanted to stay and watch the fun.

"Boy, you are really a troublemaker. You have been in Yuelaiju for less than two days before you make such a big noise." Liu Qiang stretched out his fist, hammered Yan Nantian in the chest, and said.

"Master Liu, please be gentle. My body can't stand your punch." Yan Nantian quipped and asked back, "Master Liu, what are you doing here in such an early morning?"

"You are so embarrassed to say that it's not because of you that I ran here." Liu Qiang cursed with a smile.

"Because of me? Why?"

"I told our master what you tested yesterday. The master is quite interested in your swordsmanship, so I will take you to see him." Liu Qiang said.

"Senior Zhou wants to see me?" Yan Nantian was a little surprised when he heard Liu Qiang's words, and said, "Then I want to compete in cooking now. Will you neglect Senior Zhou?"

"It doesn't matter. Our master is studying the dishes. As long as no one disturbs him, he will not be distracted by such matters. It doesn't matter if he goes early or later." Liu Qiang waved his hand and said disregardly.

"Um."

After hearing Liu Qiang's words, Yan Nantian felt relieved and asked: "Mr. Liu, according to Senior Zhou's identity, he would not summon me for the sake of just sword skills, right?"

"That's natural. Although your swordsmanship is good, it may not be in the eyes of Ling Chu. What the master values ​​is your potential. If you can get the master's recognition, you may directly accept you as the official chef." Liu Qiang said.

"Then what are we waiting for? Just take me to see Senior Zhou directly, wouldn't it be enough?" Yan Nantian said with a flash of eyes.

If the Lingchu Zhou Xuebin could be valued by Yan Nantian, he would be able to become a formal chef directly, and there would be no need to continue to compete in the cooking skills, let alone care about the views of these temporary chefs.

"Boy, if you escape without fighting, you will definitely be regarded as inferior to others. Instead, it will leave a bad impression on people and reduce your status in the minds of our masters. You may lose the opportunity to be promoted to a chef. It is better to stay honestly for competition. If your cooking skills can surpass Zhang Hengchun, our master will only appreciate you more, and the promotion to a chef will be more secure." Liu Qiang said.

"Mr. Liu said it well. I'll be a little anxious then." Yan Nantian shook his head slightly and said.

"It is just human nature to be confused by the authorities and the bystanders." Liu Qiang said with a smile.

At this moment, a noise came from the surroundings, and only a gang of chefs could hear: "Look, Mr. Feng is out."

"Yes, Mr. Feng is holding a porcelain basin in his hand. Could it be the content of this competition?"

"No matter what the competition is, let's just watch the show."

...

Feng Shuangxi walked out with a porcelain basin and carefully placed it on the wooden table. Then he glanced at the surroundings and found Liu Qiang and Liu Qiming's figures, and a little surprised appeared on his face.

"Old Feng, please forgive me for being abruptly." Liu Qiming greeted him with a smile and said.

"Old Feng, what soup are you making? It's so fragrant." Liu Qiang also strode up and asked at the fish soup in the porcelain basin.

"Two brothers, why do you have time to come to me?" Feng Shuangxi asked, squinted his eyes and looked at the two of them.

"I heard that there is a cooking competition here, so I looked for it and saw the fun." Liu Qiming explained.

"I happened to come here, but I didn't expect to drive someone up right away." Liu Qiang said.

"Since both of you are here, let's be a referee together, so that some people can say that I am unfair." Feng Shuang said perfunctorily for a few words, then ignored the two of them and said to Yan Nantian and Zhang Hengchun:

"Come here, the competition can begin."

When he heard that the competition was about to begin, the other temporary chefs in the yard were even more excited than Yan Nantian and the others. They all asked for it in order to come up:

"Old Feng, what is the content of today's competition?"

"Yes, could you let them both make some special dishes?"

"Old Feng, you cooked yourself today. Could it be that this pot of fish soup is related to today's competition?"

Hearing the everyone's quarrels, Feng Shuang couldn't help but look down and scolded: "Okay, you guys who are watching the fun are all standing behind and give Zhang Hengchun and Yan Nantian some place."

Feng Shuangxi waved and called Yan Nantian and the others in front of him. Then he glanced at everyone and said, "The content of today's competition is a food review. The pot of fish soup placed on the table is developed by me recently, and it is used as the question for today's competition."

"Tsk tsk, this is quite new, Mr. Feng was really surprised." Liu Qiming nodded slightly, obviously not expecting this kind of competition method.

"Old Feng, since the fish soup has been served, let's start the competition." Liu Qiang urged.

"Um."

Feng Shuangxi nodded slightly, and saw that Yan Nantian and the others had no objection, so he said slowly: "The first round of competition was 'seed'. Observe this pot of fish soup through your eyes and tell the information you observed. Those with more accurate information won."

Hearing Feng Shuangxi's words, Yan Nantian and Zhang Hengchun looked at each other and took a step towards the table, staring at the steaming fish soup in front of them and a fish stewed in the porcelain basin.

After listening to the content of the competition, Zhang Hengchun saw the fish soup in the porcelain basin. He smiled confidently, glanced at Yan Nantian next to him and said:
Chapter completed!
