Aidan trusted his daughter’s and Jon’s skills.
Especially Jon’s culinary skills.
How could a young man who could made top-notch red wine would have a bad culinary skill?
Today’s culinary competition champion would definitely be Troon Restaurant.
No matter what top chefs they were or a famous student of a famous chef, they were not as good as Troon Restaurant.
That’s what Aidan believed.
Hearing Aidan’s words, the surrounding people were stunned at first, then laughed out loud: “Troon Restaurant will win? Old man, you are not joking right?”
“You’re a fan of Troon Restaurant, you are a bit over the top.”
“Troon is nice, but in these restaurants, it’s a bit of a drop in the bucket. Their odds of winning are lower than the odds of winning a million dollars in the lottery.”
As the crowd discussed, a female host in a black dress walked up to the front stage.
She picked up the microphone and said with a smile, “Ladies and gentlemen, the cooking competition has officially begun!”
As the host’s words fell, the audiences were in an uproar.
Because they had been here for half a day, the competition could finally begin.
All of a sudden, the ten participating teams started moving.
They all walked towards the ingredients zone.
The ingredients zone was filled with manty ingredients, but the rules of this competition were different.
However, the contestants couldn’t just take whatever ingredients they wanted.
This was because these contestants were all top chefs in Atlantis.
Naturally, they could many kinds of dishes. If they all made their own specialty dishes, then it would be difficult to compare them.
Therefore, the organizers changed the rules.
They prepared a black box was full of small papers with different ingredients written on them.
Each restaurant took ten pieces of paper in turn and made the dishes based on the ingredients written on the papers.
For example, if a restaurant picked up beef and prawns, they would use these two ingredients to create three dishes.
The difficulty of this competition was much more difficult than their usual cooking. There were a lot of uncertainties. No one knew what ingredients they would get.
But it could also prove how good these chefs were at cooking.
Using limited ingredients, they were able to unleash unlimited possibilities.
Louise represented Troon Restaurant and selected 10 pieces of paper.
She got ham, eggs, and potato chips.
When Louise saw these ingredients, she felt a huge pressure.
Because these things were not good ingredients at all.
Of course, it wasn’t just her. The contestants from the other nine restaurants also had their plans messed up.
Some people looked at the potatoes, carrots, and broccoli in their hands and fell into deep thought because there was no main dish.
There were also some people looked blankly on their lobsters and roasted suckling pig. The side dishes were missing.
The judges expressed their opinions.
“These things are too random. They can’t form a dish at all. I could only make a dark cuisine with those ingredients.” Alice said with a wry smile.
Brooke nodded. “It’s indeed a test of a chef’s ability. This is also in line with the intention of this competition. Using limited ingredients to create unlimited possibilities.”
He looked at those ingredients that the contestants obtained. If he were a contestant, he would probably have a headache right now.
There was no other way. These ingredients were all randomly selected. There were too many uncertainties. Who could make a delicious dish out of potatoes and carrots?
Even if it was made, it would not taste too good.
It was basically impossible to make the most delicious dish out of limited ingredients.
It tested the creativity, imagination, and understanding of the ingredients of a chef.
“Yes, because it was a random selection of ingredients, it broke everyone’s understanding of how to make delicious food. In fact, as a real chef, you don’t choose the ingredients, but try to create a delicious dish by using the limited ingredients in your hands.” Olivia nodded, she agreed with Brooke.
“That’s what makes it interesting.” Bob said with a smile.
“Usually, everyone cooks according to an orderly sequence of steps. A lot of thinking is restricted
“Combining the randomly selected ingredients is much more interesting than making a specialty dish.”
Wayne smiled and didn’t say much.
Because he was interested in red wine and didn’t care about the delicacies.
In other words, he was only here to taste the red wine made by the ten great restaurants.
This competition, red wine was made by the various restaurants themselves, so it could be considered as an additional item.
This was also what Wayne was hoping for.
His gaze was still on Jon, h was curious about what kind of red wine Jon would bring today.
In the audience, everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the random ingredients.
“Can these random things really be used to cook? Are you kidding me?!”
“This is completely beyond my knowledge of gourmet food! It’s impossible to make gourmet food!”
“These chefs all look worried. They obviously don’t know how to cook it.”
The group of people shook their heads. They didn’t think highly of this cooking competition.
It wasn’t that the ingredients couldn’t be cooked. It was just that the taste would definitely be terrible.
Therefore, everyone understood how difficult this competition was.
At this moment, someone exclaimed, “Look, the top ten restaurants have started to cook!”
“They thought of a cooking method so quickly? As expected of a chef!”
Although their plans were disrupted, everyone’s culinary skills were still very outstanding. They quickly thought of a way and started to use the limited ingredients.
In the beginning, the top ten restaurants were restricted by their ideas. They didn’t know how to use these delicacies to cook.
But now that they had ideas, this was the real start of the competition.
Because it was very difficult to bring out the flavor of these ingredients and make fantastic dishes.
“Look, Mitchell is very fast!”
“Really, he’s making three dishes at the same time?!”
The first person to take action was Mitchell. The ingredients he drew were steak, coconut, and turkey.
However, he could quickly use these three ingredients.
He opened the coconut and put in the steak.
Then, he rotated the knife in his hand and cut the turkey. Each piece of turkey meat was thin and almost transparent under the sun.
The turkey meat and steak were placed in the middle and cooked with the fire.
The audience and the judges saw Mitchell’s movements were smooth and beautiful. They immediately nodded, feeling like they were appreciating art.
Amazing! Mitchell’s cooking skills were really amazing!
He actually made a delicious dish based on these three ingredients that had no connection at all!
Most importantly, his knife skills were impeccable. He could cut the turkey meat into thin slices!
“This guy is really amazing!” Alice exclaimed.
“Indeed, his knife skills have been perfected. He can be considered a top chef.” Brooke also nodded repeatedly.
Olivia did not say much, but her eyes were full of admiration.
