Chapter 88 Misstep
When your teeth touch the crispy outer layer of the fried shark's fin, you can bite it gently, and it will make a crisp sound, which will instantly make you happy. Under the golden and crispy outer layer is the tender and juicy inner layer. When you bite it, the delicious juice will splash out and spread in all directions in your mouth, filling your mouth with a rich aroma.

However, what is even more surprising is its taste. The shark fin has clearly been beaten by Chu Xianglong, but its taste has not been destroyed. Instead, it has been preserved to the greatest extent.

The combination of fish meat and shark fin forms a perfect match. The tender and delicious fish meat and the smooth taste of shark fin are intertwined together. Only through the simplest seasoning, the original flavors of both are fully highlighted.

The fish meat and shark fin are perfectly integrated, and the taste is vivid and energetic, as if a fresh fish has come back to life in your mouth, swimming freely in your mouth, shaking its head and tail.

Everyone seemed to hear the sound of the waves, smell the salty taste of the wind, and see the fish fins exposed in the sea. The fins were like sharp daggers, cutting through the sparkling water surface, stirring up the wind and clouds. Under the water, a huge and ferocious creature was riding the wind and waves and swimming freely.

This is the original taste of shark fin!

It is not a beautifully decorated delicacy, nor is it a soft fiber as gentle as vermicelli, nor is it a luxury for people to enjoy and indulge in.

It is the overlord of the sea, it is the sail that allows it to ride the wind and waves, it is the oar that allows it to roam freely, and it is the most powerful weapon in fighting.

This fierce and primitive taste cannot be compared with the taste that is carefully cooked after long-term stewing and adding many ingredients.

That exquisiteness and magnificence, that fragrance and sweetness, were completely torn to pieces in the face of this primitive blood and killing.

The chef of Taoranju swallowed the food in his mouth, but he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Guangzhou chefs are best at showing the original flavor of ingredients. Whether it is seasonal fresh vegetables or fresh seafood, they try their best to explore and pursue them, and try their best to show the original flavor of the ingredients.

However, at this moment, the skill that he was best at and most proud of was completely surpassed by others.

After eating this dish, he realized that he was wrong. In his mind, shark fin has always been an expensive ingredient, and its light golden color is even more luxurious and elegant. In his opinion, shark fin should be decorated with countless ingredients to highlight its deliciousness and expensiveness, just like an emperor surrounded by stars.

Therefore, over the years, he has been working in this direction, striving to enhance the delicious taste of shark fin and make its flavor richer and more mellow.

However, at this moment, he suddenly realized that the original taste of shark fin was not like this. It belonged to the sea, to the cruel natural world, and to the overlord at the top of the food chain.

The taste of shark fin should be so original and fresh. Covering it up with other ingredients would limit it.

The young man in front of him used cooking methods he had never thought of and created flavors he had never imagined. It was as if he had kicked him out of his comfortable life and showed him a whole new world.

"I...I lost."

The chef of Taoranju said bitterly.

However, beyond the bitterness of failure, his heart was also filled with excitement and joy.

As a chef, who wouldn’t be excited to see skills that they have never seen before?

The chef of Taoranju said, "Brother Chu, can you discuss and exchange ideas with me later?"

Chu Xianglong smiled and said, "Of course no problem, I'll be waiting for you anytime."

Elder Wu nodded with satisfaction.

His original idea was to divide, suppress and tame the Guangzhou culinary community, gradually bringing it into his own hands.

Thanks to the banquet prepared by Elder Li, which brought together all the chefs in the culinary world, he was able to easily complete his original plan.

Otherwise, they would have to go to each restaurant to challenge them, which was really a thankless task. Shen Hong sighed in his heart. This fried shark fin gave him a feeling very similar to the black-bone chicken dish. However, the similarity was not in the taste, but in the special features contained in it, which was the chef's unique intention.

This person only showed off his skills a little bit and used defective ingredients, but with his skills and the care put into it, he was able to instantly defeat the careful preparations of the chef of Taoran Ju over the past few days.

And judging from the expression of the chef of Taoranju, he obviously respects this chef very much.

This is going to be troublesome.

Shen Hong glanced at Elder Li who had a grim look on his face. He was afraid that they had the same idea. The show of force they had prepared turned out to be a stage for the other side to show off. In a short time, their morale was completely worn out, and they even captured their generals.

What a mistake!
Shen Hong approached Elder Li and whispered, "Elder Li, this banquet cannot go on any longer. We have only eaten two dishes, one of our chefs fainted, and the other has become the other party's man. If this continues, who knows what will happen."

Elder Li knew that he had made a bad move, but since things had come to this point, he could only grit his teeth and persevere. "No, if we end it now, it would mean that we are admitting that we are inferior to the other party, which is equivalent to handing over the power of the Guangdong Chefs Association to Elder Wu."

Shen Hong said anxiously: "Now it's not a question of whether to hand it over or not. You have also seen the strength of these three people, which is extremely extraordinary. If they continue, the mentality of the chefs will be completely defeated by them!"

Elder Li said in a deep voice: "No, there is still hope."

"What hope?"

"Luo Tian."

Hearing this name, Shen Hong's anxious mood couldn't help but calm down.

Luo Tian is a legend in the Guangdong Chefs Association. Even though he is not young anymore, he still retains 80% of his strength from his peak period. Because of his extraordinary strength, he is given the title of "Superman" by many people in the culinary world.

If we were to say who is most likely to break the current deadlock, it would be Luo Tian.

Elder Li said, "Go to the kitchen to find Luo Tian and ask him to serve the dishes as soon as possible."

"I see."

Shen Hong left in a hurry.

On the other hand, Elder Wu was also very satisfied with the performance of Chu Xianglong and Jiang Wei, and praised them specially.

When Wei Jie saw that Jiang Wei and Chu Xianglong were both in the limelight, especially when he saw Jiang Wei's smug face, he became even more anxious and wanted to make another contribution.

Therefore, Wei Jie took the initiative to ask, "Sir Wu, please let me play next time!"

Elder Wu glanced at Li and Shen who were whispering to each other. He was originally from Guangzhou, and knew these people in the culinary world very well, especially Luo Tian, ​​who he once regarded as a big enemy. However, he later found that Luo Tian had no interest in power, so Elder Wu did not take him seriously.

Looking at the current situation, the only person that the Guangdong Chefs Association can show off is Luo Tian.

Elder Wu pondered for a moment and said, "The next game will probably be very difficult."

"Please rest assured, sir. I will do my best to live up to your trust!"
