"If you don't repeat the extra words, the exam time is two hours! Okay, the exam begins!" Lin Yong announced the exam begins.

Jiangyang quickly walked to the ingredient area and selected the ingredients they needed.

The ingredients to choose from for this dish are very simple, with only two main ingredients: potatoes and beef.

After taking the ingredients, Jiang Yang selected some seasonings and spices and took them back to the stove.

The next step is to treat the food, the seasonings, and spices.

Jiang Yang brought a steamer this time. He cut the potatoes into small pieces, put them in a basin, and then put them in a steamer.

After that, I started to process the beef. Jiang Yang chose beef spine, which has fewer tendons and will not affect the taste later.

Wash the beef and cut it into shredded meat with a knife. The fibers of the beef are very thick, and it is difficult to cut it thinly. A real expert can cut the beef to a level that can transmit light.

This is also the knife skills requirement of a famous dish - Dengying Beef.

Jiangyang's knife skills have not reached that level, so he can only settle for the second best and cut it a little thicker. However, the beef will shrink generally, so Jiangyang is not worried that it will not be fine enough at that time.

Cutting shredded beef is a huge project. It must be cut thinly and evenly. Jiang Yang is focused and there must be no distractions at this time.

Xu Gaowei kept paying attention to Jiang Yang in the audience. After seeing Jiang Yang's knife skills, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Jiang Yang's knife skills are much better than himself. As expected, God is sometimes unfair.

Xu Gaowei was not discouraged. He was actually not a pure chef anymore. In recent years, most of his thoughts have been devoted to the management of restaurants. There are also chefs in the kitchen, which has led to him rarely specializing in cooking skills on weekdays.

Xu Zheng has also been paying attention to Jiang Yang, especially when Jiang Yang showed his knife skills, a smile appeared on Xu Zheng's face.

He could see that Jiang Yang had no contact with wasting knife skills on weekdays. Otherwise, he had only been learning to cut a ox knife for more than four months, and his knife skills would not be a world of difference from before.

Xu Zheng was a little moved by Jiang Yang's talent. He could see that Jiang Yang's slashing the ox knife was an introductory place. You know, he learned to slashing the ox knife in the past, but it took him three years to get started, which was already considered good. Jiang Yang only took more than four months, and in less than half a year, slashing the ox knife was an introductory place.

Lin Yong looked back at Xu Zheng, and saw the latter's expression of emotion and pride, Lin Yong turned around and did not talk to him.

God knows how the old boy Xu Zheng would show off. There is no way. Who said Jiang Yang’s knife skills belong to Xu Zheng?

Lin Yong is a person who knows Jiang Yang's situation more well. He knows Jiang Yang's talent, so he is not surprised at this moment.

Zeng Xianjun glanced at the stage without any concern. He was also a genius of cooking. Although he was 29 years old, he was definitely one of the younger ones among the many chefs.

When he saw Jiang Yang's knife skills, his eyes couldn't help but condense. Although this person's knife skills were not as good as himself, the difference was not big, and he looked younger than himself. He was a strong rival! A word suddenly appeared in Zeng Xianjun's mind, and his expression that he had not cared about became solemn in an instant.

Zeng Xianjun spoke out from a chef family. His father is a second-level chef. Unfortunately, he failed the first-level chef exam.

Zeng Xianjun was very interested in cooking since he was a child. When he grew up, he realized that he was very talented in knife skills. So he had been practicing knife skills hard, but he didn't work hard in other aspects.

Knife craftsmanship has always been Zeng Xianjun's pride. He is confident that no one among his peers can match his knife skills. But today he saw Jiang Yang, a rare sense of threat rose in his heart.

Jiang Yang didn't have time to pay attention to the ideas of the following people. He had cut the shredded beef and was ready to start the second step.

Jiang Yang opened the steamer and tried the softness of the potatoes. It was a little worse. Jiang Yang continued to cover the steamer.

Put the shredded beef on a plate and add appropriate amount of cooking wine, green onion, ginger, salt and other seasonings to remove the odor of the beef.

The proportion of spices was already matched when Jiangyang selected spices. Jiangyang did not wrap the spices in gauze, but put them on a plate to prepare.

After a while, Jiang Yang turned on the steamer again and tried the softness of the potatoes, and this time it would be fine.

Take out the basin containing potatoes and use a rolling pin prepared in advance to mash the potatoes. Soon, the potatoes were already in a paste. Jiang Yang rubbed them with his hands and there were no coarse particles.

Jiangyang put seasonings into the mashed potatoes for seasoning, and then rotate the mashed potatoes in one direction and stir to increase the stickiness of the mashed potatoes.

After the mashed potatoes are sticky enough, Jiang Yang takes out the mashed potatoes and puts them on the chopping board. Sprinkle a layer of flour and puts the mashed potatoes on it. The purpose of this layer of flour is to prevent the mashed potatoes from sticking to the chopping board.

Jiang Yang also sprinkled a layer of flour on the rolling pin, and then he turned the mashed potatoes like rolling dough. After the mashed potatoes became a layer of dough, Jiang Yang sprinkled a layer of flour on it.

Mashed potatoes are always different from flour. Mashed potatoes are not as viscosity or ductility as flour. Jiang Yang cannot really roll the mashed potatoes as thin as they are like rolling the dough.

However, this thickness is pretty good. After dozens of practices, Jiang Yang found the best thickness. It will neither disperse when touched nor will it be so thick that it will be scary.

After rolling out the mashed potatoes, Jiang Yang took out the mashed beef that had been marinated for a while and placed them on the mashed potatoes. This is a meticulous job, you should not be impatient or shake your hands.

This is a very critical step. If it is not prepared here, then this dish will fail.

After the beef shreds were placed, Jiang Yang flipped the mashed potatoes and wrapped them in the shreds of beef. It became a long strip of things.

After sealing the two ends, Jiang Yang took out the carving knife. He did not want to carve something, but cut the cylindrical potatoes into a rectangular shape.

It is also very sturdy here, and you cannot cut it to reveal the shredded beef inside.

After these are done, Jiangyang boils the oil in a pot, wait until the oil temperature is about 60%, put the prepared spices into the oil pan, fry out the fragrance and take it out. Then put the prepared potatoes down, fry them quickly and then take them out. This is to set the shape.

Then fry again to make the potato crust feel crispy.

It was not until after all these were done that Jiang Yang came out of that state of concentration.

He didn't know who he was, but when he looked at other places on the stage, many places were already empty.

He didn't know if anyone had passed before him, and how many had passed.

In fact, before Jiangyang, someone passed by, but there was only one person. The pass rate was still the same cruel, even more cruel than what was said online.

Jiang Yang took the prepared dishes and walked towards the jury step by step.

When Lin Yong saw Jiang Yang coming, his eyes showed a curiosity and expectation. He hoped that Jiang Yang could bring him a surprise, and he also hoped that the letter of recommendation would be sent out.

Xu Zheng looked at Jiang Yang with praise. As one of the teachers Jiang Yang, he was very happy to see that Jiang Yang had achieved something.

Yes, it is very good for Jiang Yang to be able to walk to the first-level chef level exam. As for passing the first-level chef level exam, Xu Zheng didn't expect much.

He did not deny Jiang Yang's talent, but unfortunately Jiang Yang studied too shortly. No matter how good his talent was, it was difficult to pass the first-level chef exam.
Chapter completed!
