Reborn – Super Chef

Cuisine in any region of the world has its own uniqueness. Ye Chui is a world-recognized god of food in his first life. Although he specializes in Chinese cuisine, he still does not say that Chinese cuisine is the best in the world: dishes Whether it's delicious or not doesn't care about the cuisine, but about the chef, this is something Ye Chui has always respected.

It is also for this reason that Ye Chui never minds asking famous chefs from other cuisines for advice, and Ye Chui has had many exchanges with the Japanese "sushi god".

In Ye Chui's last life, the most authoritative way to judge whether a chef is good or bad is the Michelin star rating.

The Michelin star rating is divided into three stars, the highest of which is three stars. If it is awarded three stars by the Michelin judges, it means that the dishes made by the chef are worth traveling thousands of miles to taste.

This kind of evaluation is the highest honor for a chef in the previous life, and Ye Chui won the title of Michelin Star in the previous life, and he was awarded this title at the age of 27, which was recorded by the Guinness Book of Records at that time. Recognized as the youngest chef to receive a three-star Michelin star.

At the same time, there is also a Guinness Book of Records for the oldest chef to receive a three-star Michelin title, and that chef is the god of sushi in Japan.

The name of the god of sushi in Japan is Ono Jiro.

Ye Chui once visited Japan as a guest, and saw the most extreme method of sushi in his hands.

After Zhang Huabin invited Iijima Yanhao to Hainan Chicken Rice as a guest at night, Zhang Huabin left angrily with the lunch box. Seeing Zhang Huabin's appearance, Dong Youyou was naturally relieved, but at the same time looked at Ye Ye with a little worry. Chui: "Ye Chui, can you do it? Can you make sushi?"

"That's right, master, can you make sushi?" Han Yuyan also looked at Ye Chui worriedly.

Ye Chui shrugged his shoulders: "What's so difficult, isn't it just rice balls, raw fish meat, and a little vinegar? Who can't cook such a simple dish?"

"Young man, sushi is not so simple." The middle-aged man who spoke angrily before said to Ye Chui in a hurry, "Many restaurant chefs on this food street have fallen on this sushi , although I don't like this kind of thing very much. But the craftsmanship is definitely not that simple."

"Hehe, sushi is not exclusive to Japan. We also have similar food cooking methods in Huaxia. Don't worry, I know it in my heart." Ye Chui said to the middle-aged man with a smile. "In the evening, please come and have a look."

The man in the middle was stunned, and then nodded vigorously: "It seems that you are very confident in yourself, well, I will definitely be there when the time comes, and I will bring my friends over to cheer you on."

"Thank you." Ye Chui nodded with a smile.

The middle-aged man waited for a few diners to finish their meals, and then left the restaurant. In the restaurant, Ye Chui also started to prepare sushi.

"Master, are you really confident that you can defeat that Japanese chef?" Han Yuyan still looked at Ye Chui with some worry on his face. "I heard from my grandfather that although Japanese sushi is simple, it is extremely difficult to make it delicious. This is about skills, not recipes. Can master really do it?"

"You can trust me when it comes to cooking." Ye Chui said with confidence on his face, "But we still have to make serious preparations."

"Ye Chui, just tell me what you want to do, we will definitely help you." Dong Youyou said with a smile and patted her chest.

"Oh well."

Ye Chui nodded, thought about it seriously, and began to issue tasks to several people in the restaurant: "Quiet, you stay in the restaurant. The requirements for rice for sushi are very strict, so you must be very serious about steaming rice. I will teach you how to do it, and rice will teach you in the afternoon. As for Da Yu and Weiwei..."

"Master, what do you want us to do?" Han Yuyan immediately asked enthusiastically.

Ye Chui laughed: "I want you to go shopping."

"Shopping?" Han Yuyan and Lin Wei were taken aback.

"That's right, you'd better go shopping in all the shopping malls nearby, and buy me a bottle of any brand of vinegar you can see." Ye Chui explained that vinegar is a very important seasoning in sushi. In the previous life, there was also special sushi vinegar for sale. However, the sushi in this life is not so influential yet, so Ye Chui has to choose the most perfect vinegar to make sushi.

But hearing Ye Chui's request turned out to be so simple, Han Yuyan and Lin Wei nodded immediately.

"What about me?" Dong Youyou asked closely.

"I want you to help me buy two ingredients, one is freshly unearthed young ginger, and the other is wasabi." Ye Chui explained, "You should know enough about the vegetable market in Hainan to find the best tender ginger. Ginger and horseradish."

"It's okay to talk about young ginger. I know a lot of farmers who can get the best young ginger, but this wasabi..." Dong Youyou asked a little strangely, "What is wasabi?"

"Wasabi is a plant mainly produced in Japan, its root can be used to grind wasabi." Ye Chui simply explained.

"So it's mustard, why don't you just buy mustard paste?" Dong Youyou immediately said curiously.

"No, that's not the same thing."

But Ye Chui shook his head and said: "The mustard we usually eat is not the same as the mustard made from wasabi. The mustard we buy on weekdays is ground from mustard seeds. Our country started from the Zhou Dynasty. I started to eat this kind of mustard at that time. The color is yellow, and the mustard made from wasabi root is green, that is, green mustard. It tastes similar to yellow mustard, but the taste is more fragrant. I don’t know if it is available in Hainan. For sale, Dong Youyou hopes that you can try to inquire about it."

"Okay, no problem, leave it to me." Dong Youyou immediately said confidently.

"There's me, there's me!" Seeing that Ye Chui ordered tasks for everyone one by one, but Wang Shiyu was the only one, so the little girl Wang Shiyu took Ye Chui's arm and said with some displeasure, "Brother, are you Forgot about me?"

"Of course not." Ye Chui patted Wang Shiyu's little head with a smile, and continued, "Xiao Yu, the task you have to do is also very important, just wait a moment..."

Having said that, Ye Chui hurried out, and a moment later he came back with a few sugarcane sticks more than one meter long.

"Brother, why are you buying sugar cane?" Wang Shiyu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Your task is to peel sugar cane!" Ye Chui said with a smile.

"Ah?" Wang Shiyu was stunned for a moment. In fact, she really likes to eat sugarcane, but it's because the sugarcane is too sweet. Ye Chui never let her eat more, but now the task Ye Chui gave her was to peel sugar cane?

Happiness comes too fast...

"Don't think too much, peeling sugar cane is not for you to eat." Ye Chui stretched out his hand and looked at Wang Shiyu's forehead, "What I want is the skin of sugar cane. Don't eat too much sugar cane inside, I'm going to make it in two days It's a big meal."

"Brother, what do you want sugarcane skin for?" Jing Jing asked a little strangely.

"The sugarcane belt has a certain sweet aroma, and it can be used to smoke and grill fish, which can make the fish taste more delicious." Ye Chui explained. He pointed to himself, "I'll go to the nearby seafood market later. The best fish for making sushi is tuna. I want to choose the fish myself. Okay, let's start now!"

After Ye Chui left Hainan Chicken Rice, he came to the nearest seafood market.

Tuna is a very rare fish species, also known as tuna, and it is also called tuna or Yadong fish in some places. It is mainly divided into several categories such as yellowfin tuna, bluefin tuna, albacore tuna, bigeye tuna, and masu tuna.

Among them, the quality of bluefin tuna is the most valuable. In Ye Chui's last life, he saw a bluefin tuna whose transaction price reached an astonishing 10 million RMB!

However, because of the vegetarian movement in this world, it has only been two years since fish were put on the table again, which is far from the situation of fish resource shortage in the previous life. Even human beings don't have a very detailed understanding of the taste of tuna, so the types of tuna are not so clear, and the tuna sold in the seafood market is not divided into categories in detail. Several kinds of tuna are mixed together.

When Ye Chui discovered this situation, he still searched for precious bluefin tuna or bigeye tuna with the mentality of picking treasures. It turned out that most of these tunas were ordinary yellowfin tuna, or mixed with some Albacore or Masu instead of the prized bluefin and bigeye tuna.

However, Masu tuna is more than enough for sushi. The god of sushi in the previous life used Masu tuna to make sushi.

"Little brother, the tuna tastes the same, and they are all fresh. You don't need to choose so carefully, it's unnecessary." The fishmonger reminded Ye Chui with a smile when he saw Ye Chui's careful selection.

"Really?" Ye Chui's heart moved. It seems that the preciousness of tuna has not been realized yet. He thought for a while and said to the fishmonger, "Uncle, although the taste of tuna is similar, I like it better. Eat a kind of bluefin tuna, uncle, if you have bluefin tuna here in the future, can you call me directly?"

"Bluefin tuna?" The fishmonger nodded after thinking for a while, "There is nothing special about this kind of fish except for its size. Two days ago, I brought in a bluefin tuna weighing nearly two hundred catties. Originally, I thought The whole strip was sold, but no one wanted to take it, and it stinks up."

Ye Chui: "..."

Two hundred catties of bluefin tuna was worth at least a few hundred thousand in the last life. Well, let's put it here and throw it away...

"Next time you meet bluefin tuna, you can contact me, and I'll buy them all." Ye Chui said with a serious face—two hundred catties of bluefin tuna, according to the average price of tuna in the world, is only a few thousand yuan at most. But the delicious meat of bluefin tuna is definitely worth the money.

"Success, I will contact you when the time comes." The fishmonger uncle quickly agreed with a smile.

Then Ye Chui selected one of several tunas based on his experience in the previous life.

Because tuna is huge in size, fishmongers generally don’t ask to sell it whole (the bluefin tuna before was an exception), so Ye Chui deliberately chose a part of the back of the fish close to the head, and returned to Hainan chicken rice with heavy fish meat back.

Wang Shiyu had already peeled a pile of sugarcane skins. Ye Chui raised the stove in the kitchen and threw the sugarcane skins into the stove, and billowing smoke immediately rose, but the smoke was not choking, but rather There is an unspeakable sweetness, and Ye Chui puts the whole piece of tuna on top of the sugarcane skin to smoke and roast.

About half an hour later, the originally bright red fish flesh has been dyed a layer of deep red. At this time, the production of tuna has been temporarily completed.

Han Yuyan and Lin Wei also returned to the restaurant with a bunch of vinegar. Dong Youyou also called. She actually found something like wasabi and was rushing back.

And at this time, the whole food street didn't know whether it was because of Zhang Huabin's intentional announcement or because of the middle-aged diner, but many people knew that Ye Chui was going to invite Iijima Yanhao to eat sushi. At that time, the small restaurant was packed directly...

This made both Han Yuyan and Lin Weijing a little nervous.

Ye Chui is still very indifferent——

"Hehe, this Japanese restaurant wants to turn our four famous dishes in Hainan into their own sushi, so I will use their sushi to teach them a lesson!" (~^~)
