Chapter 306 Perfection
There are two dishes, one is the exquisitely shaped dragon and phoenix chicken wings, and the other is just ordinary fried chicken wings.

Fried chicken wings are too common. Even though Sanjie overheard the conversation between the two and knew that this was the dish that defeated his father, he was still not very interested in it.

Whether in terms of appearance or emotion, the three heroes put dragon and phoenix chicken wings first.

The three heroes picked up a piece of dragon and phoenix chicken wing and put it into their mouths.

The chicken wings are boneless and filled with meat and shrimp. The fresh, fragrant and sweet flavors come one after another, making people fall into this wonderful enjoyment in an instant.

The crispy skin fried to golden brown is crunchy and delicious, releasing a rich aroma with a light bite. The inside is chicken marinated with spices, tender and juicy. The fragrant and delicious gravy bursts out from the smooth chicken when you bite it, filling every corner of your mouth with meaty aroma.

The teeth continued to dig deeper and found pork filling inside.

The spices also remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor of the pork filling, while alleviating the greasy feeling of the meat, making it taste more wonderful and refreshing. The clever combination of fat and lean meat makes the meat filling have a firm texture and is full of juice, which is the delicious taste formed by the melted fat.

After the pork filling, the last is the shrimp meat, which is firm and elastic. It seems to bounce on the tip of the teeth when you bite it, giving you a full pleasure when chewing. The shrimp meat has fine fibers and no residue is left after chewing. It seems to turn into sweet and wonderful gravy, flowing smoothly into the throat.

Similarly, the shrimp meat has also been pre-processed and marinated with spices. The salty taste makes the sweetness of the shrimp meat more prominent. At the same time, the unique freshness of the shrimp meat becomes more delicious under the background of spices.

The aroma emanating from the bitten chicken made Xu Qing's heart move.

The sensation from his nose made him instantly understand how Chef Tang eliminated the weaknesses of the Dragon and Phoenix Chicken Wings.

The characteristic of Dragon Phoenix Chicken Wings is the difference in taste and flavor between different ingredients, which is used to bring a strong impact to the taste buds. If this characteristic is lost, Dragon Phoenix Chicken Wings will lose its soul.

Therefore, Chef Tang thought about it and finally decided to retain the characteristics of Dragon and Phoenix Chicken Wings, that is, not to make any of the three ingredients the "king", but to put them in the same position and let each of them play their own different characteristics.

However, this dish must have a "king", that is, the dish must be shaped around a flavor, with other things to bring out its beauty, so as to eliminate the weaknesses of the dragon and phoenix chicken wings.

As for this flavor, Chef Tang’s final choice is spices.

That is, the flavor of spices is the main flavor of the dish, and the chicken, pork, and shrimp are used to bring out the flavor of the spices.

This practice is even more bizarre.

Even the guest becomes the host.

Because of the traditional cooking methods, the status of spices is not even a "minister" but a "sidekick" or "envoy", which plays the role of blending and perfecting the dishes, and it is difficult to serve as the mainstay of a dish.

Take salt for example, it is a seasoning and no one would eat salt as a main dish.

But now, Chef Tang boldly puts the flavor of spices at the core of his dishes.

When Xu Qing saw the confident look on Chef Tang's face, he knew that this was not a move he was forced to make, but rather a well-considered move.

And this careful consideration brings huge changes to the dishes.

At this moment, the taste of spices hidden in three different kinds of meat and different ingredients exploded in the mouths of the three heroes at the moment when the three ingredients came together and the moment when the taste buds were immersed in the strong impact brought by the different flavors.

This strong aroma instantly dominated the taste buds, powerfully crushing the taste nerves and leaving a deep imprint on them. Spices, as the name suggests, have a strong aroma. Because of their strong fragrance and taste, they can only be added in moderation when cooking, otherwise the taste of the ingredients will be completely covered and destroyed, turning a pot of originally delicious ingredients into a strange taste of spices.

At this moment, the dishes in the mouths of the three heroes, those wonderful and fragrant chicken, pork, and shrimp, are linked together by the taste of spices. They clearly have their own different textures and flavors, but behind these differences, there are subtle similarities.

This similarity allows the three conflicting flavors to blend cleverly into one.

Moreover, it is not just a simple integration. This dish with spices as the "king", spices are like a king behind the scenes, highlighting the deliciousness of the chicken with its own fragrance, and when this deliciousness blooms, it becomes a part of it. The spices embrace the tenderness and deliciousness of the chicken, and make its own deliciousness stronger.

Later, it used the same trick again when it came to pork and shrimp.

In the end, this hidden king absorbed all the flavors and revealed its true appearance.

This is an incomparably wonderful taste, it is broad and thick, with salty and sweet blending harmoniously. All kinds of delicious flavors turn into a torrent, continuously impacting the taste buds.

The three originally unique flavors seemed to merge into one at this moment, turning into a huge and unrivaled force, leaving its distinctive flavor strongly on the taste buds, so that the taste nerves are occupied by it and tremble uncontrollably under its power.

At this moment, the three heroes unconsciously showed expressions of great enjoyment on their faces.

His eyes were slightly narrowed and there was a happy smile on his face. That smile was not deliberate, but unconscious and completely sincere. Even Sanjie himself did not realize that he was smiling.

He just immersed himself in the food, enjoying the deliciousness of the dishes.

All the expressions that arise from this are spontaneous behaviors of the body.

This genuine expression of joy gave Chef Tang an indescribable sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

It made him feel as comfortable as drinking a glass of ice water in the hot summer.

The outcome of the cooking showdown is unclear at this moment.

But just seeing such a smile made Chef Tang feel satisfied.

This dish is truly successful only when it is done at this point.

Only dishes that make diners feel satisfied and happy from the bottom of their hearts can be called delicious.

Previously, he was brooding over the win or loss. On the one hand, he felt unwilling to accept the result, and on the other hand, he felt that he had not performed to his best and that there was still room for improvement in the dragon and phoenix chicken wings.

And a temporary failure cannot define him completely.

That's why he wanted to fight the mysterious man again after perfecting the Dragon and Phoenix Chicken Wings, to avenge his previous defeat and truly prove himself.

At this moment, his dragon and phoenix chicken wings have reached perfection.

All that remains is to defeat the fried chicken wings made by Xu Qing, then find the mysterious man and take back the victory that belongs to him with his own hands.
