23 -23: Boss Lady, Open Your Mouth!
As Su Xuan’s voice trailed off, everyone saw his hands flipping up and down, the minced pork loin, along with a bit of silver cod and Arctic deep-sea shrimp, suddenly flew up from the chopping board.
Right after that, the white porcelain plate in his hand spun around with the speed of a magic trick.
And the minced meat landed precisely in the center of the spinning plate, which, with its rotation, soon formed meatballs.
On the other side of the chopping board, ingredients that had been cut into small pieces or sliced into filaments, also landed steadily into a pot that had been prepared in advance.
Boom!
Su Xuan turned the flame to its maximum, and the soup in the pot immediately came to a boil.
After a short while, the air began to fill with a meaty aroma.
Teriyaki lion’s head was just a common dish, but Bright Moon Building’s version was distinctive not only in the careful selection of ingredients but most importantly in the secret sauce.
Although Su Xuan didn’t know the secret method of Bright Moon Building’s sauce, during his time in the military, he was forced by the Military God to come up with quite a few dishes on his own.
Among them, Su Xuan’s version of the teriyaki lion’s head even won extravagant praise from the picky Military God.
Earlier, when he was preparing the side dishes, he also proportioned and prepared his own sauce.
Three minutes later, the scent of meat was pervasive.
The chefs present couldn’t help but gaze eagerly at the pot beside Su Xuan, their eyes filled with admiration.
Not to mention anything else, just the Blade Skill of using one hand for two purposes that Su Xuan had exhibited was enough to make these chefs take him seriously!
While everyone was waiting for this teriyaki lion’s head, Su Xuan carefully lifted the lid off the pot and scooped out all the lion’s heads inside.
What followed was the final step of the dish—reducing the sauce!
He took a clean white plate and placed several fair and rosy lion’s heads on it one by one.
Then he drizzled the thick sauce from another pot, little by little, onto the lion’s heads.
The boiling sauce, poured over the lion’s heads and the dish, made a sizzling sound.
The originally fair and rosy lion’s heads began to change color in an instant, gradually turning dark.
When the thick sauce completely enveloped the lion’s heads, Su Xuan finally revealed a satisfied smile and said to Chen Wanqing, “All done, now you can taste it!”
Although Su Xuan’s display of knife skills was impressive, it did not necessarily mean he could produce delicious dishes.
At least until now, Chen Wanqing still approached it with skepticism.
Hearing Su Xuan say the dish was ready, she showed an expectant expression, about to try it.
But Su Xuan, quick-eyed and deft-handed, snatched up the chopsticks and picked up a lion’s head first.
“Ah, open up.”
Seeing Su Xuan’s gesture of feeding her like a child, Chen Wanqing’s pretty face instantly turned crimson, and she stood there, not knowing what to do.
“Boss, come on, open wide!”
Chen Wanqing saw the ambiguous glances of the group of chefs and immediately felt so embarrassed she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
She glared at Su Xuan resentfully and stubbornly bit half of the lion’s head.
This half-bite sent the flavor of the lion’s head meatball surging through her mouth.
The three top-grade meat ingredients perfectly fused the tastes of the tenderloin, the cod, and the shrimp together!
After taking just half a bite, Chen Wanqing’s eyes suddenly lit up with delight, she hurriedly took another bite, swallowing the lion’s head meatball Su Xuan had served her in one gulp.
The fragrance of the meat, the tenderness of the fish, the freshness of the shrimp, along with the unique flavors of the various side ingredients, all perfectly blended together without any interference or conflict.
However, this was not all there was to the teriyaki lion’s head.
Just as Chen Wanqing was about to praise Su Xuan, her expression changed, and she suddenly froze!
Seeing her halt, everyone exchanged puzzled looks, uncertain of what had happened.
Wu Zhaoxiong, consumed by resentment, whispered bitterly, “Hmph, it must be because this kid’s cooking is so bad that General Manager Chen is too angry to speak!”
Wu Zhaoxiong’s words were purely out of envy, as all the chefs present understood that the aroma alone had already said a lot.
Everyone present, except for Chen Wanqing, was a chef and could tell whether a dish was good or bad.
The teriyaki lion’s head made by Su Xuan, judged by its appearance and scent, was already at a level that only top chefs could achieve.
Even if these chefs hadn’t tasted it, they were aware that the final flavor component was unlikely to be poor.
As everyone had their own thoughts, Chen Wanqing finally spoke up.
“Good, I have decided.
From now on, Su Xuan, you will replace Master Zhu as the head chef of Bright Moon Building!
You will also represent us in the Cooking God competition!”
“What?”
Before Su Xuan had a chance to respond, Wu Zhaoxiong was the first to exclaim in shock.
“Is there a problem, Vice Chef Wu?”
With a face full of resentment, Wu Zhaoxiong pointed at the smiling Su Xuan and said hatefully, “Why?
Why does this kid get to replace Master Zhu in the Cooking God competition?” fгeewebnovёl.com
As he said this, he turned to stare at Chen Wanqing and added, “General Manager Chen, even if you are the general manager, you can’t just show favoritism!”
These words could be said to strike at the heart, implying that Chen Wanqing was giving Su Xuan an unfair advantage.
Upon hearing Wu Zhaoxiong’s words, the other chefs present all shrank back, not wanting to get involved in the dispute.
Chen Wanqing’s expression slightly changed upon hearing Wu Zhaoxiong’s comment, she said coldly, “Vice Chef Wu, if you disagree, you can try the teriyaki lion’s head that Su Xuan made!”
Even if she hadn’t suggested it, Wu Zhaoxiong would have tried it anyway.
Before Chen Wanqing had finished speaking, he had already picked up a pair of chopsticks, grabbed a lion’s head meatball, and began tasting.
Seeing this, Chen Wanqing had an idea and said to the other chefs, “To avoid any accusations of unfairness, you all should also participate in judging.
If more than half of you say this dish isn’t good, then I will retract my previous statement and not let Su Xuan replace Master Zhu in the Cooking God competition!”
Upon hearing this, the chefs eagerly moved forward and each tasted a lion’s head meatball.
Wu Zhaoxiong, after eating a lion’s head meatball, still wore a disdainful expression.
As he chewed, he mocked Su Xuan, saying, “This teriyaki lion’s head is nothing special.
Even if the taste is well managed, it is still far from Master Zhu’s level.
Thinking you can compete in the Cooking God competition with this dish, you must be delusional!”
Chen Wanqing frowned upon hearing this and said to Wu Zhaoxiong, “Vice Chef Wu, you should finish tasting the dish before making your judgment.”
“Hmph, and what if I do?
As if it could be anything spe…”
Mid-sentence, Wu Zhaoxiong suddenly choked, unable to get the rest of his words out.
The other chefs noticed that Wu Zhaoxiong, just like Chen Wanqing moments earlier, was stunned!
At that moment, Wu Zhaoxiong, feeling the sweet flavor spreading in his mouth, was inwardly overwhelmed!
