[Jo Minjoon]

Cooking level: 7

Baking level: 5

Tasting level: 8

Decorations level: 5

Level 7 Had this number ever feel this lovely? It was a number that made him albi Now, he was on the same side as Anderson, Kaya, and Chloe But of course, even if he was on the same level, there would still be soht that he had finally been able to catch up to their backs to some point

Jo Minjoon looked at the nu in the air with affection If there was a proble as looking at She, who sensed his fierce sight, slightly turned After she saw Jo Minjoon’s eyes, she frowned and turned back again

‘What is it? Why was he looking at me like that?’

She did feel burdened, but she was too busy to mind that It was the same for Jo Minjoon The level had raised, but he still had to finish the plating

He didn’t place a big a french dishes, showing the white plate Only, if he placed abundant food, there was a high possibility that they would feel burdened 3 pork dishes by each participant They were going to at least eat 21 pork dishes Even if they made it deliciously, if the ah possibility that they would get sick of it fro the flavor before putting the food in yourup the flavor they would iine to the utmost For the first time, he had made all of the dishes to be 8 points, and those were the last dishes he had ful moment, so he wanted to show that perfectly

When he was placing the bite-size meat at the middle of each plate, there wasn’t even a minute left Jo Minjoon licked his dry lips and looked at the judges Alan, as glancing at the clock, yelled with a hard voice

“Time’s up! Take your hands off!”

The evaluation started Jo Minjoon slowly looked at the other participants There were only two person that got 8 points in all of their dishes: Kaya and Anderson In the case of Chloe, she had two 8-point dishes, but the reet evaluated was Ivanna Her dishes were all 7 points It was a fine score Since the participants of this season were all high leveled, she couldn’t show her outstanding skills But if Ivanna had participated in the previous season, she would have been a participant that gave ht now Aside of her cute face, she had the qualifications and skills, because it wasn’t easy for an aes also reviewed her dishes taking that into account Of course, they couldn’t tell if it was 7 or 8 points, but they could perfectly feel the level of that dish Alan thought inwardly

‘To feel regret in this kind of dish…… This season will certainly remain in history’

Probably, from now on, there wouldn’t be as many skilled participants as in the third season In the first place, the story ended on the point that a participant had an absolute sense of taste

It wasn’t that they reviewed Ivanna’s dishes in any special way, but even so the critic ended with quite good comments Those were dishes that had stability If you weren’t a special epicurean, most of the people that tried Ivanna’s dishes would be happy after trying it

Sasha and Hugo weren’t that different They had dishes that were 6 and 7 points Although it wasn’t bad, those were dishes that lacked a bit to pass the evaluation The judges had to crunch their heads thinking It would bemistake, since it would be difficult to eliminate one of them In the end, they could only evaluate it subjectively

“Minjoon, bring your dishes”

But first, evaluating the re people came first Alan looked at Jo Minjoon’s dishes with expectant eyes Since when could it be? He started to enjoy itparticipant could be seen with his eyes, and his groas felt ue

“Is there an order to eat it?”

“I reco thethe three”

“Less stiht a meatball in his mouth The soft smoked paprika and the meatball that was covered in wine sauce was chewed in his mouth In the paprika, an unexpected crunchiness reh but softof his mouth

The flavor of the wine sauce that was ar and boiled doas quite normal However, it didn’t mean that the flavor lost color because you couldn’t criticize a barbecue sauce for having the same flavor as barbecue sauce

“You made this wine sauce to have a flavor that people just like it It’s not simply sweet, but it had the acidity and sweetness that just suit with the meatball On top of that, the special flavor of the dry wine…… Where did you learn this? This inforht You could read the recipe”

Alan asked with a face full of questions, and nodded after he had understood He knew the recipe of the things he ate It was a really unrealistic thing to be conscious of that all the time

He wouldn’t even need a teacher Because just by going to a fa their food, he would be able to obtain all of the information of that chef Everytime he mastered a recipe that chefs would normally try to hide, he would e

His fork reached to the next dish It was the dongpo pork this time The po pork was chewed, and the juice that was ue On top of the flavor of the vegetables fried on chinese oil, the dense aro wine re a luxurious dongpo pork in a good Chinese restaurant It was a dish that you wouldn’t believe that it was made in just two hours and has this much effort and dedication

Eirl

“It’s reht that tipo pork……”

“Thank you”

“I a this dish Will you be able to eat this kind of thing for free?”

Emily talked like that and smiled At times, she felt like a fox, but at least when she evaluated a dish, she showed a pure attitude of a kid And that was also the reason Jo Minjoon couldn’t hate her

‘It would be good if you stopped telling ht like that and salbi The judges put on a more serious face Joseph opened histhe dishes you have cooked today, this pork galbi is the most important one Because it will directly show the ability you have And……”

Joseph looked at the shape of the pork galbi and slowly opened his eyes

“Looking at the exterior, it doesn’t look like it has any flaws The sauce is well sipped in it, and it isn’t burnt The ood colour To not burn it, it’s the si It’s accorilled, then all the albi in hisbarbecue sauce and soy sauce If you made a mistake, it could end up to be excessively salty, but the wine, vinegar, and leht And it wasn’t just pouring the sauce on top of it, but after resting the meat, he cooked it with the sauce that was on the meat

It could be felt with that bite that Jo Minjoon had grown A s, it was a dish that was difficult to make if you didn’t feel the moment the fire touched thethan the po pork They couldn’t feel that much of a difference in the flavor or in the completion However, if you were someone that cooked, you could only feel that difference The effort and skills the pork galbi contained wasn’t normal Alan opened his mouth

“………I will honestly speak I’m sorry, Minjoon Previously, I didn’t see your probabilities of winning to be that high However, after eating your dishes today, I a to think differently Perhaps, you may do so Yes, you will be able to win”

It was a serious voice Jo Minjoon sht that it may become aith whatever he said But fortunately, E hand
