Before Sylvia could answer, Henry's voice rang out again.
"It's useless. Yinzhou City only has a few seafood markets, and the food bought by this restaurant is already the freshest. If you ask someone to buy it now, it may not be better than it is now. The meat quality of the chickens here is not superior in French cooking skills. Do you have any dishes requirements in this competition?" Henry asked.
"No," Milan shook her head and answered. "But there are only a few dishes that Prince Charlie likes."
The atmosphere in the kitchen was a little silent.
After Nico finished the pastry on the chopping board, she did not know what to do next. If they cooked the dishes, as usual, they would definitely lose on these ingredients.
The loss of this competition was not just a shame for them. It was related to their future, but also to their teachers. But now, they were really cornered. Their opponents were not rookies, but also chefs who were proficient in cooking.
Looking at the dishes on the chopping table, Henry was lost deep in thought.
"Well, tell me first, what kind of dish do you want to cook?"
"Tell you?" Nico looked at Henry strangely. She didn't understand what was the use of telling this person.
Milan knew that Henry knew a little about French food, so he might as well give it his best shot and could make some suggestions.
"For the first dish, I want to cook a fire-roasted snapper."
"Snapper?" Henry thought for a moment, then rolled up his sleeves and directly picked a fish out of the nearby tank with his bare hands.
Henry's action startled Milan. She couldn't help but ask, "Henry, what are you doing?"
"Of course cooking. Do you want to lose?" Henry slammed the fish on the chopping board. At the same time, he picked up a scaling knife and quickly removed the scales. "There's no fresh snapper now, but I can replace it with weever. Milan, prepare some dill, grind some star anises, add appropriate salt and pepper, and mix them together. And Nico, you crack an egg, add two grams of butter, two grams of lemon juice. Then add a small spoon of salt and pepper to mix them well. You must mix them well!"
Henry spoke quickly. In the process of talking, he had removed all the scales and opened its belly.
They stood on the side, still a little dazed at Henry's behavior.
"Henry, the reason why you asked us to do this is ..."
"I'll explain it to you later. Do it quickly." Henry had begun to clean the weever's internal organs. He was very skilled. Even if it was the most difficult part to wash, he had to dig it out for only once, and then it could be washed clean.
Milan looked at Henry for a few seconds, then turned around and went to find the auxiliary materials according to he said.
"Nico, do as Henry said."
After washing the bass, Henry found some turmeric powder, poured it into a rice pot, and boiled some rice.
