2262 Magical steak
In any case, Anthony felt that this was the best glutinous rice he had ever eaten in his life. Well … Of course, he had not eaten anything else.
Although it was very sticky, it did not stick to his teeth. One bite was definitely not enough, so Anthony reached out his chopsticks to take a second bite.
Apart from promoting the important theme of Chinese food culture, Yuan Zhou’s participation in the bogus world cooking competition had also taught many people how to use chopsticks.
In fact, this was really the case. If the top chefs all liked to use chopsticks, then the younger generation would also follow suit.
Then, the customers who found it interesting would use it. When more people used it, it would form a trend.
To put it bluntly, this was the law of the fashion circle. It was just that Yuan Zhou had displayed it in the circle of chefs with his cooking skills alone.
One of the five colors was enough for each of them, so everyone chose the color they liked. Gauss was usually very enthusiastic, but he liked deep purple. The color of the long leaves of the red and blue Grass was bright but not glaring.
The color was very dark, but it had a clear feeling. Gauss took a fancy to it at first glance. He scooped a spoonful of it with a white spoon and put it in his mouth. It was sweet and soft with a slight sweetness. He couldn’t stop.
The five-colored glutinous rice was placed on a large plate. Each color occupied a space and was pieced together into a colorful circle. Each color occupied the same amount of space and could not be distinguished from the other.
The few of them fought over the food. After eating for a while, they would choose the color they wanted and try the color others chose. After trying all kinds of flavors, they had basically finished all the food.
Zhou Shijie just watched them eating the five-colored glutinous rice and then finishing the last spoonful of swallow vegetables that he had left.
“It seems that going to Europe to participate in the competition this time is really useful for little Yuan. Obviously, he has a new idea of cooking.” Zhou Shijie smacked his lips.
Many European chefs who communicated with Yuan Zhou all wanted to learn more from Yuan Zhou and then overtake him. For example, podraco had the same idea. He wanted to learn some Chinese dishes and then defeat Yuan Zhou!
He did not know if he should be called stubborn or ambitious.
However, only two weeks had passed. Podraco was still studying, but Yuan Zhou had already made progress. How could he catch up with him?
“Little Yuan is really the nemesis of all chefs. In this era, there are only two paths for a chef. One is to not even be able to see the tail lights of a car, and the other is to find a teacher.” Zhou Shijie muttered to himself. Luckily, he was a chef from the previous era.
“Since Lu cuisines have made such great progress, other cuisines must have made similar progress. I can come and try Yunnan cuisines tomorrow.” Zhou Shijie looked at Gauss, who was checking whether there was any more glutinous rice on the clean plates, with a pensive look.
He made up his mind to try Yunnan cuisine again tomorrow, starting with the five-colored glutinous rice. Gauss and the others were snatching it so well.
“Are you full?” Ju man Li asked Gauss in a rare low voice.
Their dishes were all served, but they felt as if they hadn’t eaten, most likely because most of the dishes had been taken away.
“Alexander still has a dish that hasn’t been served. We can wait.” Gauss did not answer directly.
However, his intention was clear. He would order after eating all the dishes.
“That makes sense.” Ju man Li said after some thought.
Soon, the last dish was served. It was the Wellington steak, or rather the Wellington steak. This steak was very different from the usual steaks.
A black rectangular plate with a piece of toasty bread that was about 20 centimeters long?
The Golden bread was steaming and had a beautiful pattern. The slightly crunchy surface exuded a strong wheat fragrance. If it weren’t for the fact that the few chefs were good at it, they would have thought that it was just ordinary toasted bread.
“The surface of this crispy skin is so beautifully baked. Head chef Yuan’s control of the fire is no weaker than his cutting skills.” Anthony could see it more clearly since he was closer.
On the surface of the beautiful diamond-shaped pattern, except for the places that were crunchy, everything else was a perfect golden color without any other mixed colors. It should be known that many times when a chef baked, although they could take it out or put it in at any time, there would be a slight brown and a little black if they were not careful. These were the signs of overcooking, but in fact, it was only a few seconds of difference, and it was extremely difficult to control.
Even if Anthony made it himself, he would at least produce such a burnt yellow color five times out of ten times. Even if he made it golden, it would not be as shiny as Yuan Zhou ‘s.
“It is indeed perfect.” Alessandra said.
Then, he picked up the knife and fork that had been delivered together and cut it directly from the middle, revealing the medium-well steak inside. The beautiful rose color with a slight tinge of blood proved that the steak was very fresh and tender.
Normally, the steak cooked in such a way also needed to be matched with the sauce. However, Yuan Zhou didn’t have any sauce here. Besides the steak served and the knife and fork, there was nothing else.
They didn’t think that Yuan Zhou had forgotten about it. It was a big problem that he could forget about cooking skills. However, they were still very puzzled.
But that didn’t stop them from enjoying the food.
Alexander was very self-aware. He picked up the knife and fork, planning to cut the steak into finger-thick pieces again so that it would be more convenient for the others to enjoy with chopsticks.
“Guys, take a look.” Suddenly, Anthony could not suppress his voice.
Then, everyone’s attention was focused on the black plate. The cut that Alessandra had made was in the middle of the steak and crispy skin. It was probably ham. At this moment, dark brown sauce slowly flowed out of the ham and steak. As the sauce flowed out, the aroma of wine became stronger.
“Did you put the sauce inside?” Gauss was surprised.
To be honest, after eating at master chef Restaurant for so long, he had only eaten a few steaks. Instead, he was more interested in the various Chinese cuisines. Therefore, this was Gauss ‘first time learning that Wilton’s steak could be like this.
“This is the first time I’ve seen such a method. I don’t know how head chef Yuan handled it. I don’t think even Turama can do it.” Ju man Li couldn’t help but lean over.
“It’s indeed a work of art. The beef doesn’t seem to be affected at all. On the contrary, the degree of maturity is just right. ” Anthony wished he could stuff his eyes in to take a closer look.
“You’ll know after you eat it. ” Alexander was the most practical.
After he gestured with the fork, he still put it down and picked up a piece of crispy beef with his chopsticks. The pattern of the beef in the middle was too beautiful, and with the dark sauce, it was embarrassing to use a fork to stab it and ruin its beauty. Chopsticks were more suitable.
He bit into the meat along with the skin. The crispy outer layer had a slightly roasted texture. The salty and fragrant ham, the hot sauce, the unique fragrance of red wine, and the extraordinarily tender beef inside made the texture of the meat layer by layer. Each flavor alone was a kind of enjoyment, not to mention when added together, it was not as simple as one plus one equals two.
