Chapter 412: Regret

The black beans in Han Jiayi's hand looked like a black peanut without peeling in size and shape, with dense veins on the surface, which can be said to be quite ugly.

But what people didn't expect was that this ugly thing had such a special fragrance, and it was so wonderful to pair it with chocolate.

"It tastes a bit like almonds, but it is a little sweeter than almonds. As for its fragrance... how can it be described?" Bai Renzong held his chin and pondered, "You can taste the fragrance of vanilla, caramel, cherry, and a hint of magnolia's floral fragrance. The most important thing is that this thing will not grab the flavor of chocolate, which makes the fragrance and taste of this lightning puff particularly rich."

"This thing is called tonka." Cai Jia frowned, "the scientific name is Linglingxiangbean."

"In the past, this thing was usually used to make perfumes, and it was only in recent years that some people began to put it into cooking." Han Jiayi smiled proudly, "Actually, I learned that this thing was also made through perfume, or did you give it to me."

"So that's how it is..." Bai Renzong suddenly realized, then looked at Han Jiayi and smiled, "You girl, really..."

Han Jiayi raised her head proudly and waited for his praise, but Bai Renzong just scratched her nose: "Don't be proud, you still have a lot to learn when it comes to using spices."

"Hmph..." Han Jiayi bulged her cheeks and glared at him in dissatisfaction.

But she also knew that Bai Renzong didn't want to be too biased towards her on the show, and he would naturally praise her after he got home, so he didn't say much.

"It's tonka." Alan Robbs sighed at the lightning puff in his hand, "After having this guy, the taste of this lightning puff has changed endlessly, as if every bite has a different experience. I think I can eat it all the time!" At this point, he suddenly told a cold joke: "Eat all the lightning puffs like lightning..."

"What should I say?" Rosini Salerno smiled while rubbing his chin, "What about the original wife's counterattack..."

Indeed, in Bai Renzong's opinion, Han Jiayi used this spice specifically, and seemed to be expressing her opinion to Cai Jia: I can use it well if I want to use it, but it is not your specialty!

Of course, in Bai Renzong's opinion, her move only angered Cai Jia. Cai Jia's skills in using spices are still not comparable to Han Jiayi. So Bai Renzong did not rush to praise Han Jiayi, otherwise if the final episode of the next season 2 will lose, it will be a big shame.

"Then, we're entering the rating stage." Bai Renzong cleared his throat and said, "First of all, chef Adam's Obera, with eight layers of layers, using wafers and pastry to provide a crispy texture to the dessert, making this dessert the protagonist. I have to say that it's really smart, because the dessert in the set meal exists as the ending, just a supporting role, but today's theme dessert needs to exist as the protagonist, so it needs a richer texture and flavor, and Chef Adam did this very well."

"After all, I've been doing a show with you for so long, and I'm still very clear about your peeing skills." Adam smiled proudly.

"Anyway," Bai Renzong frowned, "I will give this Obera 98 points, perfect, but lack a trace of stunning."

Alan Robbs gave 99 points, Rosini Salerno gave 98 points, and Ryoto Zuoto gave 95 points.

"After this, it is Chef Cai Jia's matcha macaron." Bai Renzong continued, "Using matcha to ease the sweetness of macarons and adding tarragon leaves to provide it with a wonderful aroma is really an excellent idea, and it also highlights Chef Cai Jia's personal style. I personally didn't like macarons very much, but this macaron is special."

Cai Jia looked at him with a smile, with a hint of expectation on her face.

"I will give this macaron 96 points." Bai Renzong continued, "For me, 90 points are the passing line for you top chefs in the world. 95 points means that your works meet your personal standards, so you understand the meaning of 96 points?"

"Yes." Cai Jia nodded, "It's better, but there is still room for improvement. Is that true for Brother Zong?"

"That's it." Bai Renzong nodded, "In addition, 98 points means I am very satisfied with your works, and 100 points means your performance exceeds my expectations, and even I was amazed. Chef Cai Jia's macaron is excellent as a dessert, but as the protagonist, it is a bit lacking in presence, which is why I only give 96 points."

Alan Robbs gave 96 points, Rosini Salerno gave 99 points, and Ryoto Zuoto gave 100 points.

"Then Chef Yang Hua's pear crisp caramel pudding." Bai Renzong continued, "The very rich texture and taste, like Chef Adam's Obera, is a dessert that exists as the protagonist. I will give you 98 points."

"Tsk, there is no full mark..." Yang Hua said with a little displeasure, holding his arms.

"I don't agree with Mr. Bai's opinion on this point." Alan Robbs said with a smile. "This pear crispy caramel pudding is a very excellent dessert. Not only does it have a sense of existence to exist as the protagonist, but it is also very suitable for finishing it in the set meal. After eating this dessert, you can go home and rest with satisfaction. So I will give you full marks."

"I think so, too." Rosini Salerno replied, "This dessert is really good enough to be worth 100 points."

"Agree 100 points." Zuo Teng Ryoto also echoed, "I feel that Bai Sang is too strict with Chef Yang Hua."

"That's certain." Bai Renzong smiled, "because I know how outstanding he is, this is definitely not his best performance."

"Ah..." Yang Hua covered her chest with a painful expression, "Sure enough, only Xiaobai is the one who understands me the most..."

Next, the highlight of this show.

"Master Zhang Guanghan's Dragon Beard Dingsheng Cake." Bai Renzong continued, "Dingsheng Cake made of taro paste and glutinous rice flour is decorated with dragon beard paste and then enhanced with orange syrup. They are all classic Chinese dim sum, but they are shown in this international way. I have to say that this is a transcendence of oneself, with a full score of 100, and it deserves it."

"Indeed, this work is so excellent." Alan Robbs nodded, "It's admirable, 100 points."

"Even in the highest-end Samsung Michelin restaurant, this dessert is still dazzling." Rossini Salerno replied: "It perfectly demonstrates the charm of Chinese cuisine, and it must be given 100 points."

But at this time, Zuo Teng Ryoto replied: "Although it is a very excellent dessert, for me, this dessert is a little sweeter, especially the dragon beard crisp on it. I am more sensitive to sweetness... So, I'll give you 96 points."

This guy really ruined the atmosphere. Bai Renzong frowned and thought to himself.

Then there is the work of Eikawa Yusheng, which is "Snake Snake" shown in Western-style dim sum.

"In a very special form, the traditional Japanese cuisine method was used to create this stunning ramen with the flavor of Western dessert. It is undoubtedly quite classy. At the same time, the sesame crisps and cherry blossom petals also provide a layered texture of taste and fragrance, which is a very excellent dessert." Bai Renzong commented, "I will give this dessert 98 points."

Alan Robbs gave 97 points, Rosini Salerno gave 96 points, and Ryoto Zuoto gave 95 points.

Then came Jamie Tira's gelato.

"The Italian ice cream displayed with bell pepper powder is a bit weird but very distinctive." Bai Renzong replied, "It can be regarded as a very excellent dessert... I will give this ice cream 95 points."

Alan Robbs gave 90 points, Rosini Salerno gave 98 points, and Ryoto Zuoto gave 98 points.

After Jamie Tira's ice cream is Chef Paul's banana tart.

"The dessert made without baking is very interesting, with a rich texture and flavor. The delicate and silky texture is not much inferior to the mousse cake, and it is hard to believe it is made of banana slices." Bai Renzong replied, "With the right sweetness, I will give this dish 96 points."

"I think this is a very excellent dessert. The dessert is more complicated than you think. It is difficult to blend fresh banana slices in such a way with the butter to form this delicate texture. The chef's choice and treatment requirements for ingredients are very high," Alan Robbs replied, "So I will give this banana tart 98 points."

"I also think this banana tart is quite excellent, 98 points are not an exaggeration." Rossini Salerno nodded with satisfaction.

"I think it's too sweet. The banana itself is very sweet, and there are toffees in it... For me, it's already sweet and greasy, and there's no bitterness or sourness to blend it." Zuoto Ryoto frowned, "So, I personally will give it 90 points."

Finally, it was Han Jiayi's turn to lightning puffs.

"A very excellent little dessert, very cute, and the use of Lingling Kabean is also very clever." Bai Renzong said with a smile, and then his face darkened. "But I think this is just your normal performance. When you have inspiration, the dishes you make are much better than this. So, I will only give this dessert 98 points, which is in line with your standards, but it did not surprise me."

"Hmph..." Han Jiayi was a little dissatisfied with her cheeks, but she didn't say much.

"Mr. Bai is the kind of person who kills old friends." Alan Robbs joked, "The requirements for acquaintances will be stricter. I think this chocolate lightning puff is very good, and I will give 99 points."

"One hundred!" Rossini Salerno nodded.

"It's 98 points, it's not very sweet, and the Lingling beans are also used very well." Zuo Teng Ryoto echoed.

"In this case..." Bai Renzong said, turning to Yang Hua and Zhang Guanghan at the scene, "The winner of this period was decided among these two. Both of them got three full marks, but in terms of average score, Chef Yang Hua's score was slightly higher."
