Mi Qilin's eyes lit up, and he quickly squatted down and picked up the wax gourd, which was as big as her two heads. It's the best way to do it first, and it's king to carry it back to his own chopping board first.
Winter melon is a treasure. Not only can it be used as medicine and has high therapeutic value, but it is also rich in nutrients. It is useful from the skin to the seeds. It can be made into various foods and beverages with many cooking methods. It is really a treasure all over the body.
Mi Qilin suddenly had a flash of inspiration, can she make good use of this big winter melon? If a table of dishes is made with wax gourd as the main ingredient, will it shorten a lot of time to benefit from this competition?
A few recipes with winter melon as the main ingredient quickly appeared in his mind. Mi Qilin estimated the time and felt that it was about the same. Then he looked at the kitchen cabinet. The contestants had already selected almost all of them, so he put down the winter melon and went to the cabinet to choose the one with winter melon. Ingredients.
?When it comes to winter melon, many people generally think of pork ribs and winter melon soup, but that soup takes too much time and may not be completed within two sticks of incense. Mi Qilin decided to make a simple seafood soup.
She chose kelp and clams. These two ingredients have their own flavors, especially kelp. In fact, kelp itself is a good material for collecting juice. You can make a seafood soup with wax gourd and boil it in water. She can use the soup cooking time to cook other dishes.
After selecting some required ingredients, Mi Qilin returned to his place and started cooking.
She first washed the wax gourd, cut it in half from the center, removed the pulp and put half on a large tray, carefully dug out the meat inside, so that only an empty shell was left on the half of the wax gourd, which looked like like a container.
Mi Qilin washed the kelp and clams and soaked them in two large bowls filled with water. Some salt was added to the clams soaking bowls to speed up the clams' spit. Put half of the water in the pot and heat it on the stove.
Immediately afterwards, she swiftly sliced ??the melon flesh that she dug out just now, and put it on a plate. At the same time, she carefully scraped off the skin of the other half of the winter melon with a scraper. The silky melon skin looks like green noodles , she put it aside for later use.
The onion, ginger, garlic and other ingredients are also quickly cut up and divided into several small plates. When preparing several dishes at the same time, Mi Qilin uses the method of production line. Just use the order of the required materials, so that the actions can be concentrated and save some time and procedures.
By the time Mi Qilin prepared all the ingredients, the water in the pot had boiled and a lot of seaweed had grown. She shredded the seaweed and added it to the pot along with the water for soaking the seaweed. Flavor, cooking together has saved a lot of seasoning steps.
She also put in some sliced ??fresh shiitake mushrooms and kelp to cook together, and during this time, she started to prepare other dishes.
The second dish is braised wax gourd. Put oil in the frying pan, add peppercorns, peppercorns and star anise to fry for a while, then add dried red peppers and scallions to burst out the fragrance. Then put in thick slices of winter melon and stir fry, then add seasonings and continue to stir fry, then add a little water to cover and cook for a while, after the winter melon is cooked through, it can be served on a plate.
The third dish is stewed prawns with wax gourd. Add a little oil in the pot, first put onions, ginger and other ingredients and stir-fry until fragrant. Put a few prawns into the pot, add a small amount of water after the prawns turn red, cover the lid and simmer over low heat.
Mi Qilin raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his cuff, thinking that fortunately the stoves in this competition are larger, each stove has three stoves, and can cook at the same time, otherwise she really felt that there was not enough time.
?After preparing three dishes in a row, Mi Qilin did not slack in the slightest. She still had two small dishes to cook. After wiping off her sweat, she took a few deep breaths, and Mi Qilin began to prepare the next dishes.
Mi Qilin didn't know, since she entered the door, Yin Chuhuan's eyes have been locked on her. Although Yin Chuhuan has seen Mi Qilin cooking in competitions before, but there has never been a time like this time. several dishes.
Yin Chuhuan had never seen Mi Qilin's expression of confusion and uneasiness like this time before. She always looked confident in almost every competition. Seeing her expression this time, Yin Chuhuan secretly squeezed for her sweat.
The content of the World Master Chef Contest was decided half a year ago. Because he was afraid of seeing things and thinking about others, Yin Chuhuan did not participate in any meeting to discuss this competition, and left it to Yin Chuen and Yin Chuqiao. In order to be considerate of him, I made various arrangements without telling him.
Who knew that Mi Qilin would use another identity to come to the capital to participate in the competition. Even if Yin Chuhuan wanted to give Mi Qilin a complete answer, it would be difficult for him to know nothing, which made him very regretful.
That fellow Yin Chuen knew about Mi Qilin's return, but he deliberately didn't tell him the content of the game. Yin Chuen's behavior was just a protest against him forcibly keeping Qin Xing in the palace.
He knew that he was in the wrong, but Mi Qilin didn't take it seriously, saying that he could compete with his real skills. If he won, he had reached his strength, and if he lost, he would be convinced.
Yin Chuhuan's hand on the armrest of the armchair gradually curled up into a fist. He looked at the second incense stick that was almost half burned, and was secretly nervous for Mi Qilin.
Ye Naichen sat on the far side of the judges' seat, the closest to Yin Chuhuan, he naturally knew that Yin Chuhuan was here in disguise, seeing his nervous look, and then looked at Mi Qilin, although the expression on his face was very dignified , but it didn't feel like it was a critical moment.
Alas, it seems that the emperor is really not in a hurry for the eunuchs Uh, no, forget it, let's pretend that he didn't say anything, anyway, he doesn't speak well in the official language of the Baigan Kingdom, just do what he wants, and don't ask too much of him.
Mi Qilin also looked at the clock beside the judging panel. Although there was not much time, it was just right for her, and she definitely had time.
The three dishes just now have been cooked one after another. After she arranged the dishes, she took out a ball of plain noodles, found a vacant stove to boil the boiled noodles, and put the shredded winter melon skin into the pot together.
At the same time, put together some of the broken pieces and winter melon seeds that were sorted out when the winter melon was packed, and then put brown sugar on it and knead carefully. After most of the brown sugar melted, put a small pot of water to boil the winter melon.
While cooking, she took out a carving knife and carved a few auspicious patterns on the melon shell that was used as a container just now. A few white lines immediately appeared on the green melon skin, and the flowing lines immediately made the melon shell visible. It looks a lot more high-end.
She put the seasoning into the seafood soup that was boiled at the beginning, and after mixing thoroughly, poured the soup into the melon shell, and a winter melon kelp clam soup in a winter melon bowl was completed.
At this time, the water in the two pots that were newly put on the stove had boiled, and Mi Qilin picked up the noodles and shredded wax gourd and soaked them in cold water.
Boil the wax gourd in another pot with sugar, take it out, filter it with gauze and put it in a cup, and the sweet and delicious winter melon tea is ready.
Finally, pick up the shredded winter melon skin and plain noodles and place them on a plate filled with crushed ice, sprinkle with a little salt, the plate is green and white, and it looks very delicious. This dish is called winter melon cold noodles.
Mi Qilin made a vegetarian dish, a meat dish, a soup and a tea in one go, and a winter melon cold noodle as a staple food. She looked up at the timing incense, seeing that it was about to burn out, she hurriedly took the bell and rang it.
Jingle!
At the same time as there is a crisp sound, the last incense stick also falls in response, the incense is extinguished, and the time is up.
"Huh so dangerous" Mi Qilin wiped off his sweat, but fortunately he was in time.
The attendants came to Mi Qilin and took the dishes she made and delivered them to the judges' table. Not only Ye Naichen, but everyone's eyes lit up. The wax gourd shell was so eye-catching, they even thought of using the wax gourd shell as a container. This idea is something no one else has.
Some of the ten contestants did not finish the dishes on time, and some of them cooked a table full of dishes within the time limit, but they were all simple home-cooked dishes.
In this way, Mi Qilin not only mixes meat and vegetables, but also pays attention to presentation, and she has cooked five dishes, all of which are outstanding in terms of quantity.
In this competition, Mi Qilin passed safely as the first place. She can continue to compete for the next round of the competition, which is the final big event - the final of the World Master Chef Competition!
Orange also successfully passed the competition. He was originally a home cook. In the tight time, he chose relatively simple home cooking. In this way, although it is not gorgeous, at least he can complete the task within a limited time. , and his seasoning can give him extra points.
Among the five contestants finally selected, except Mi Qilin and Chengzi from Baiqian Kingdom, the other three are from other countries. One of them is from Shikun Kingdom. .
After the game, Cheng Zi yelled and spent a lot of brainpower, and he was so nervous the night before that he didn't sleep, and after a hasty greeting with Mickey Lin, he yelled and went home to catch up on sleep.
Mi Qilin also felt that the time was too short, which made her worry about it. The judges had already left, and Yin Chuhuan had disappeared, so she might have been waiting for her somewhere.
Dragging his tired body, Mi Qilin walked to the backyard, opened the curtain of the carriage and walked in.
"ah!"
As soon as the curtain was lifted, there were people in the carriage, and there were more than one.
