Gao Hui was also very emotional. This was the first time he had heard his Little Junior Sister tell a whole paragraph of the book. It was indeed of high quality, although her voice was soft.

He had wanted to say a few more words, but who knew that a strange fragrance would sweep through the tip of his nose. It had a unique fragrance of fire, making him want to see what dish had such a strong fragrance.

She turned around and saw a plate of snow-white flowers blooming on the black porcelain plate. The contrast between the black and white made the flowers look even whiter, and their blooming posture was very elegant and natural.

When he got closer, he realized that the White flowers were actually fried cuttlefish meat. If he didn’t look carefully, he wouldn’t have been able to tell. Whether it was the color or the cutting technique, they were all very outstanding.

“Well-deserved reputation.” Gao Hui praised.

As a native of Haizhou, he was very familiar with this dish. However, he didn’t recognize it at first when he smelled the fragrance. It wasn’t because Yuan Zhou’s dish wasn’t authentic, but because this fragrance was definitely the most fragrant he had smelled in so many years. He simply couldn’t believe that it was the fragrance of a simple plate of exploding Crow.

In fact, for this dish, many chefs had already chosen a very scientific method to make it, so that the heat control was just right.

This method was to determine and analyze the depth and angle of the knife, the boiling time, water temperature, and water volume of the black peanut embryo, as well as the seasoning method and the application of the cooking fire, as well as the analysis of the nutritional components of the exploding Crow flower. From there, the best technical plan of making the exploding Crow flower could be drawn.

This was a very scientific method. Gao Hui used to like the dishes cooked in this way very much. He felt that the crispness and softness were just right and that they were very much to his liking. However, as soon as Yuan Zhou’s plate of fried crow’s feet was served, even he, a layman, felt that something was different.

They couldn’t really tell the details. Actually, the color was not much different. They were both snow-white in color. However, the tip of Yuan Zhou’s dish had a little pale yellow color, which made it look more vivid like the stamen of a flower. Even the fragrance was different. He always felt that the dish served by Yuan Zhou had a more lively atmosphere.

Gao Hui stared at the exploding Crow flower for a few times. After making sure that he could not see any difference, he picked up his chopsticks and picked up a Crow flower to put into his mouth.

“Ka Cha!”

The crispy texture caused the surface to shatter upon biting. It had a slightly charred texture and gave people a beautiful experience. However, the innermost part retained a little bit of softness. The fresh taste and the charred crispness on the outside were mixed together. The texture was unique and natural, with a little smell of the ocean. It was not the feeling that Gao Hui had when he ate it with the scientific method of frying.

It wasn’t just perfect, but it had a unique taste. It had his favorite tenderness and moisture content, and the white pepper powder was just right. It was the finishing touch.

“I don’t feel thirsty even after eating a plate like this. It’s really delicious.” Gao Hui’s mouth did not stop, his hands did not stop, and his speed was extremely fast.

Even Zuozuo had only managed to grab two. It seemed that everyone had a powerful superhuman hidden in their hearts. When they needed to grab food, they would definitely reveal it.

Just as Zuozuo was still hungry for more, the dishes she had ordered for herself were served. A plate of ribs with thick oil and red sauce, which looked very red and shiny, was placed on the table.

It was maroon in color, and each rib looked as if it was covered in a thick layer of clothes. There were even white sesame seeds scattered on the surface, as if they were embellishments of white flowers.

The rich fragrance of bones wafted out, and it was extremely appetizing.

Zuozuo took a deep breath, picked up a piece of rib, and put it in her mouth. With just a light sip, the soft meat fell off from the bone, completing the mission of separating the bone from the flesh. The rich sauce had a very strong taste with a little sweetness, making the originally tender meat even sweeter.

And it didn’t feel greasy at all. At least Zuozuo ate it like tofu, piece by piece, like she was eating vegetarian food. She didn’t feel greasy at all like she ate meat dishes.

The salty and sweet taste was very appetizing and pleasing. Zuozuo especially liked it. Unfortunately, even though she had already seen her second senior brother’s eating ability and sped up, she was not as fast as him. In the end, more than half of the ribs still went into his stomach.

Zuozuo pouted. Thinking that she could eat senior brother’s dishes later, she felt a little calmer. Although they ate less, there were more varieties, so naturally, the number of dishes they ate would go up.

After the ribs were finished, the other dish was immediately served.

It was a high-quality anchovy. In fact, the most important part of this anchovy was that the bones were out of the whole fish, which was the most difficult part. Many chefs basically made it look like it, but not in spirit. If you looked closely, you would find that the whole anchovy was a little damaged. Even if it had been repaired, it could still be seen if you looked carefully. That was because the anchovy’s belly was thin and its sternum was extremely thin, which made it difficult to take it out completely.

Of course, this was only for others. For Yuan Zhou, he had already cooked the steamed rice with anchovy in the Sino-Japan Exchange meeting back then. Now, he was naturally more and more skilled in cooking.

At least, when Gao Hui looked at the complete Grenadier anchovies, other than the bright sauce and condiments, he felt that the fish seemed to have not been processed.

Of course, this was an illusion. It was not until the fresh, juicy, and flawless fish entered his mouth that he suddenly realized that the fish had been boneless. He just didn’t notice it.

Although Gao Hui had already eaten two dishes, he was still shocked. However, when the Emerald green Jinling grass was served as if it had never been cooked, and with the Grenadier anchovies as the base, he did not say that it was definitely uncooked.

Sure enough, the fresh and natural taste, the crisp and tender taste, all showed that this dish had an extremely high taste.

“It seems like there are too many parts that need to be changed. What I wrote previously was not even one-third of head chef Yuan’s standard. I’m really ashamed.” Gao Hui felt that the ancestor’s words,’what you hear is false, but what you see is true’, were not nonsense.

Previously, for the sake of artistic creation, he had made some artistic modifications to Yuan Zhou’s cooking skills. In his opinion, this had already elevated Yuan Zhou’s cooking skills very much. After all, even he himself felt that such a chef couldn’t possibly exist in this world.

However, art indeed needed to be modified with rhetoric such as exaggeration, metaphors, and analogies. Gao Hui felt that there was nothing wrong with this. However, when he ate Yuan Zhou’s dishes at this moment, he finally knew that his descriptions couldn’t compare to Yuan Zhou’s true level even though they were modified by art.

Although Gao Hui was filled with emotions, this did not hinder the speed at which he ate. On the contrary, the more he regretted, the faster his hands moved, as if he was afraid that it would be gone if he was a step slower.

Zuozuo was mentally prepared, but she couldn’t stand Gao Hui’s combat power. Even though the dishes were served one after another, it seemed that they couldn’t keep up with the speed at which they ate. This was especially so when she had already displayed the full strength of the store that she had been stationed in for a long time. She was still inferior to Gao Hui, who had just arrived. She felt a little depressed.
