中新网上海9月25日电 (记者 李佳佳)第48届世界技能大赛(以下简称“世赛”)烹饪(西餐)赛场,属于全球青年厨师的巅峰对决正在上海火热上演。来自世界各地的顶尖西餐选手围站操作台边,锅具叮当作响,刀起刀落之间,一场充满未知的厨艺大考拉开帷幕。
本次比赛最大的悬念,直到开赛前两天才正式揭晓:五款来自中国的“神秘食材”中,活菌甜酒酿和松花皮蛋赫然在列。按照世界技能大赛的传统,每届东道主都会拿出本土代表性食材作为挑战素材,此前的法国世赛选用了奶酪和坚果,俄罗斯喀山世赛拿出了糖果与马肉,以此考验厨师跳出固有烹饪框架,开展创意重构的能力。
在很多海外消费者固有印象中,皮蛋也就是他们口中的“century egg”接受门槛高,酒酿也属于小众发酵食品,它们都鲜少出现在西式厨房。世赛规则更加大了创作的难度:如果选用“神秘食材”,该食材在菜品中的占比必须超过50%,不能只做盘边装饰,而需要真正成为菜肴的主角,这对习惯西式烹饪逻辑的选手是不小的挑战。
不过,赛场上却出现惊喜一幕,不只是亚洲选手愿意尝试,大量欧洲选手也主动选用松花皮蛋入菜,甚至有一位欧洲厨师一次性申领30枚皮蛋,计划将它融入多道创意菜式。
世赛烹饪项目技能竞赛经理Sean Owens(肖恩·欧文斯)亲口品尝过麦臻选松花皮蛋,评价其口感顺滑,不会带来肠胃不适感;而活菌甜酒酿则保留了传统活酵母发酵工艺,一经开封,独特的米香立刻抓住了选手的注意力。组委会选择这两款食材,不仅因为它们在品质和风味上经得起专业厨房的考验,更因为它们是中国传统饮食文化中“发酵”这一智慧的杰出代表。
作为本届世赛烹饪赛项唯一商超食材供应商,恰逢来华30周年的麦德龙,为赛场供给超200款全品类食材,上述两款“神秘食材”就来自于此。麦德龙商品开发及进口总经理余俊贤告诉记者,其在开发甜酒酿这款商品时,延续了中国酒酿2000多年来“酵母活着、米粒呼吸”的传统制作工艺,坚持自然发酵,不做高温杀菌,保留了酒酿的米香和微气泡感;而松花皮蛋则沿袭了湖北非物质文化遗产的制作工艺,松花清晰,切开溏心鲜滑,是中国蛋制品中极具代表性的一味。
光鲜的竞技台面之下,则是一套昼夜不停的供应链保障体系。每天21时,麦德龙上海普陀商场的后场便会忙碌起来,员工按当日的清单备货,食材在辖区公安民警与药监部门的监督下完成装车、贴封条,全程隔温配送,冷冻区温度恒定维持在-16℃至-22℃,直达国家会展中心后,再由药监局与赛事工作人员共同验收。
长久以来,海外认知里的中国味道常常等同于麻辣。但世赛赛场之上,甜酒酿与皮蛋正在打破这一刻板印象。欧文斯说:“我们希望各国选手通过运用这两款食材,在西餐烹饪中,呈现来自中国的醇厚风味与底蕴。”余俊贤则表示,把传统食材推向世界赛场,不是简单输出猎奇食物,而是做到传承古法风味与现代化规模品控两者兼顾,向全球展示中国饮食不止一种风貌。
