Chapter 376: Yuan Zhou’s Face-slapping
Translator: Xiong_Guoqi Editor: DesTheSloth
"This is the soybean that is at the transition time of spring to summer rather than a pure spring soybean . About one-third of them are from that period . " Yuan Zhou brought out his judgement calmly .
"You are right, but I haven't finished . " Chu Xiao turned his head, taking a look at Yuan Zhou, and then continued .
"Since this master has said that, I don't say it anymore . " Chu Xiao just glanced at Yuan Zhou lightly, not intending to mention his name .
"This pot of bean sprouts has been handled by three people and all of them are girls . I suggest the females who touch the food ingredients not to use perfume," Chu Xiao shrugged and then continued saying that .
He didn't feel uncomfortable at all for Yuan Zhou's interruption just now . After all, he would also correct it directly if he saw others giving wrong information .
"I'm done . That's all . " Chu Xiao directly turned around and went back to his own position .
He would never admit that he might have made mistakes .
Nevertheless, Yuan Zhou was murmuring the different scents of the few brands of perfume silently .
"Speaking of which, these perfumes definitely have their own names . I seem to know very little of that . " Yuan Zhou knew the tastes of these perfumes, but he just couldn't bring their names out .
He made up his mind inwardly and prepared to broaden his scope of knowledge after he went back . It was always good to know more .
Yuan Zhou was the fourth contestant, therefore he didn't walk very far away .
"My luck today is surprisingly so good . " Yuan Zhou signed voicelessly, thinking that even such an unusual thing could appear when he saw the stuff on the plate .
On the plate was a flower and two leaves under it as the background, which appeared fairly beautiful .
"Loosestrife . " Yuan Zhou brought out the name with certainty .
"The vegetable is indeed seldom seen now . We are eating it far less nowadays . " The chairman of China Chefs' Alliance stroked his goatee and said smilingly .
"Yeah . I tasted it once a few days ago and the taste was still fresh in my memory . " The middle-aged man, whose nameplate was reading Research Doctorate of Precious Ingredient Research, pushed his glasses upward and said earnestly .
"Little Dong, you are too young . How dare you are so bold to eat whatever you are interested in?" The chairman of the alliance said with a smile .
"You are right . I still like the processed ones . If not, it must be very fresh ones . " Judging from his words, the great gourmet was known to be picky about things .
"The vegetable is produced in Xin'an and the smoothest and most tender ones are from the upper reaches of Xin'an River . It's a perennial herbal Asteraceae plant that likes warm surroundings . Its leaves are similar to the mother chrysanthemum, therefore it's also named as the Stelpnolepiscentiflora . When it blossoms, the flower is small and white with a lustre alike to that of pearls . That's why it's named as the Loosestrife . "
Yuan Zhou was used to revealing the phenotypic traits of the vegetables according to the system's introductions .
"What the hell is the matter with this guy? Isn't he a chef? Why do I feel like he is actually a botanist?" The chefs off the stage discussed with a low voice .
"You are right . He's not Chu Xiao . Is it really necessary for him to bring out even the scientific name of a vegetable?" A chef frowned and said slightly discontentedly .
He had decent reasons to feel dissatisfied . For Chu Xiao to speak like that was still acceptable as they had been used to his posturing ways and totally surpassed them . However, why could a person that suddenly appeared make a long-winded speech without any preparations?
Wouldn't that indicate that they are quite incapable?
However, Yuan Zhou continued talking even before they finished their complaints .
"The vegetable in front of us looks beautiful and plump, but it isn't grown in the wild . In this season, only the Guangdong area has the wild-growing ones . If it was transported here, it wouldn't be so fresh . So the vegetable is produced from the greenhouse in the suburbs . These few plants of Loosestrife should have been planted in the middle, which brought such strong scent . "
"It is mostly used in Teochew cuisines . Nevertheless, I think there's no need to cultivate it in water next time as it will lose the taste of soil . " Yuan Zhou said lightly .
"Sh*t . Both of them are like dogs . No, even the dogs don't have that sensitive smell . Their noses are definitely not human's . " The chef said speechlessly while looking at the mud on the roots of the Loosestrife .
