Li An’an fished out the braised duck from the pot and soaked it in cold water for a minute. She then took it out and began to slice it and place it on the plate.

Ji Yin could smell a unique aroma. Her expression turned ugly. Li An’an had made this with marinade and ham soup. As the ham itself was salty, it made up for the missing salt. Wariness flashed across her eyes. She looked at the exquisite dishes she had placed on the table. Every dish was a signature dish of high-end restaurants. Li An’an, on the other hand, only knew how to cook. Plating was her weakness.

The audience in front of their own television screens could not eat it and could only watch it. Therefore, she focused on plating the dishes. The perfectionist streak in her demanded the best results and only the most beautiful plating aesthetics!

Li An’an felt the mounting pressure .

However, Ji Yin was too engrossed to notice that Li An’an was also plating. Under her craftsmanship, the green cucumber was cut into the shape of a green lantern and placed on a plate. Then she proceeded with making six more. Finally, she placed the deboned sliced duck meat on the plate, with the head and wings, creating a beautiful presentation.

For the ham stir-fried with bamboo shoots, she used green sauce to outline the undulating shape of the mountains on a large platter. She then arranged the vegetables on top, so that they could be dipped in the sauce for a more flavorful taste.

A white soup cup with gold edges was used for the taro soup.

She employed a simple method with the hairy crabs. They were steamed, but she prepared a special sauce to go with them.

Finally, there was the refreshing stir-fried cabbage. They were the last to be cooked. Freshly cooked vegetables taste the best.

At last, the countdown on the stage ended.

Zhang Yingmeng looked very excited. “Miss Ji, your cooking skills are a real eye-opener! I’m ashamed. I always thought that beautiful women wouldn’t know how to cook! You’ve proven me wrong.”

As she spoke, she glanced at Ugly Mommy, as if making a point that only ugly women would enter the kitchen.

Li An’an laughed sarcastically.

Ji Yin said, “I don’t think that’s a fair statement. Women should like culinary arts, whether they’re ugly or beautiful. Think about it. It’s a blessing to be able to personally cook for the people we love.”

“Miss Ji, what noble thinking you have. I should learn from you!” Zhang Yingmeng held Ji Yin in high regard because in her opinion, she would surely win!

Li An’an was completely ignored, but Zhang Yingmeng also knew her limits.

She turned around and walked towards Li An’an. “Ugly Mommy, your food reminds me of my mother. It’s awesome!”

Such hypocrisy! This dish, hehe, would be mediocre at best… However, when she saw the exquisitely designed dishes, her expression froze for a few seconds before she immediately realized that the other party was not just playing the gallery! Nevertheless, she reacted quickly. “Alright, let’s have the judges comment! We’ll taste Ugly Mommy’s dishes first.”

She was going to get the workers to bring Li An’an’s dishes to the judges’ table.

Li An’an interrupted her. “Host, let’s go according to the order. Miss Ji was the one who chose the dishes first, so her dishes should be tasted first!” She smiled graciously.

Ji Yin, on the other hand, found it hard to be happy. Needless to say, the competition was the harshest at the beginning! In the end, she had the upper hand!

Zhang Yingmeng said, “That might not be a good idea. I think you’re located closer to the judges’ table.”

“No, the distance is the same. Host, did Miss Ji give you any benefits? You seem to be flattering and promoting her today!” Li An’an said half-jokingly.

Zhang Yingmeng’s expression changed. “Ugly Mommy, you’re a real joker. I think I’m more biased towards you, which is why I suggested for your dishes to be showcased first. Since you feel that this would put you be at a disadvantage, we’ll showcase Miss Ji’s dishes first then!”

Ji Yin agreed. After all, this was Li An’an’s offer to pretend to be magnanimous. How could she reject it!

The workers brought her dishes to the judges’ table. There was a total of five judges. The judges held bowls and chopsticks in their hands and would try the food. These were all famous food critics..
