Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"...You mean the eyes that stare at Mito's chest with serious eyes?" Chuangzheng complained honestly.

"Uh, if you weren't extremely confident in yourself and didn't shake at all because of the environment, would you have such a look?" Isshiki said.

"Senior Isshiki's words are so reasonable, I'm actually speechless..." You Ji said helplessly.

While everyone was chatting, Rei Kawashima announced: "Now, the food halberd duel between Mito Yumei and Liu Maoxing will focus on 'meat dishes'—please stand by the cooking table, and the food halberds will begin!"

And at this moment, as if to verify Isshike's words, the lights in the private room reserved by Erina turned on, and Erina Nakiri, the only one-year-old among the top ten, and Hisako Nito, the young secretary, walked in.

The arrival of the Ten Heroes undoubtedly shocked the audience again...Although Yisehui also came, she did not go to the privileged room of the Ten Heroes, but was with the people from Jixing Liao, so most of them didn't notice it!

At the same time, everyone has guessed the reason. Mito Yumei is Erina's confidant. It seems that Erina is also here to witness Yumei's victory, right?

Seeing the admiring gaze that Roumei was looking at Erina, Liu Maoxing couldn't help saying: "The halberd food is about to start, I advise you to be more serious... Roumei!"

"Asshole! Are you looking for death? Dare to call that nickname again... Forget it, anyway, I won't see you in the kitchen anymore!" Yu Mei said angrily.

"How come? As my maid servant, there are still many things that need your help."

Liu Maoxing's natural tone almost angered Yu Mei again, but Yu Mei ignored him for the sake of peace of mind when cooking later.

At this time, the two took out their own raw materials... The Food Halberd Administration only prepared basic materials and seasonings, and the main ingredients were prepared by both parties themselves. This also tested the ability of both parties to obtain and identify ingredients.

And the Mito Group is a super-large world chain-level meat distributor, with its own farm and a full set of sales channels, specializing in high-end meat!

The topic of "meat dishes" can be said to be surprisingly beneficial to Mito Yumei from the perspective of subjective and objective conditions.

Sure enough, Mito Yumei pushed it up with a special shelf cart, and it was a whole piece that was perfect in terms of "frost", the firmness of the meat, the luster of the fat, the luster of the appearance, the time of slaughter, and the means of preservation and transportation. A5 grade beef!

Just a whole piece of raw meat hanging there makes one feel an appetite is being produced...

"Hey, this level of beef... it's the first time I've seen it!"

"This is terrible, isn't it? Mito is serious..." Dawu and Zhaoji couldn't help but waver.

And then, Mito's performance was also astonishing. He picked up a large meat cleaver among katana, and chopped at the whole piece of beef that was more than half a person's height hanging.

The seemingly open and closed knife technique carefully separates each piece of beef to be used...

"This guy is really powerful! He obviously doesn't look very strong..." Dawu said with trembling eyes.

"It looks more difficult to deal with than imagined, what does Isshiki-senpai think?" Ibuzaki muttered dully.

Isshiki just smiled without saying a word, as if he was still confident.

And Liu Maoxing kept watching the other party's movements. After Yu Mei noticed it, she couldn't help being looked at a little hairy, and said angrily: "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing, you look like you have a lot of strength... I will leave the strength to you in the future!"

"What kind of work? Who will lose to you!"

"Don't worry, it's really just hard work, not something like 'sit up and move yourself'." Liu Maoxing said with unclear meaning.

"..." Mito Yumei once again reminded herself not to talk to this guy, so as not to affect her performance.

But just when Liu Maoxing turned around and took out his ingredients, Mito Yumei still widened her eyes, and couldn't help but said, "Duck, duck? Are you kidding me!"

That's right, what Liu Maoxing took out was a mallard duck that had been slaughtered but its fur was not peeled. This is a breed carefully bred by You Ji!

But in the audience of Ji Xing Liao, other people couldn't help complaining to Yu Ji...

"Little Yoshino! What are you doing? How can you give him a duck..."

"That's right, you have wild animals that are more suitable for meat dishes!"

"Oops! Doesn't this mean that you lost three points as soon as you come up?"

You Ji also said innocently: "I have persuaded him, but Ah Xing must use this, and I can't hold back..."

That's right, everyone understands that duck meat is not suitable for this meal!

As a kind of waterfowl, duck has a high status in Chinese cuisine. Compared with chicken and pork, it is not much inferior. The often said "chicken, duck and fish" is the best proof, especially "Beijing Roast Duck" has opened the door to the "New World" for many Westerners!

On the contrary, because in the land of China, in most of the ancient times, cattle were used as labor force, not food, and it was forbidden to slaughter privately, so beef dishes are relatively weak...

However, the Western cuisine system has always been unfriendly to duck meat. Western civilization obviously prefers large pieces of meat, because since ancient times, the West has not lacked protein compared to the East, so duck meat is less popular. , bone-rich ingredients, not very fancy.

Although in French cuisine, German cuisine, and Arabic cuisine, there are some dishes that use duck meat as an ingredient, but it is not the mainstream after all!

The most important thing is that the theme this time is "meat dishes", and the texture and taste of "meat" will definitely be considered during the judging.

As a representative of meat dishes, especially A5 grade beef, it can be said that it is completely off topic, while duck meat is the next best choice, just barely sticking to the side. Full-bodied, thick taste characteristics...

The three judges even frowned when they saw the duck.

"Isshiki-senpai, did you know that he was going to cook this?" Ibuzaki asked again in a muffled voice.

"This, this is really unexpected, hahahaha..." Yishi also laughed dryly.

And the audience's original booing towards Liu Maoxing has completely turned into ridicule. In their opinion, using duck meat to show the charm of "meat dishes" is completely unreasonable!

"You can do whatever you want! Anyway, if you lose, you will leave the culinary world!" Yu Mei said.

After speaking, Mito Yumei began to pre-process the cut beef.

And Liu Maoxing took out two big bags, which were filled with bags of "salt"...

Wen Xu burst into anger when he saw it: "You brat! I said why the salt I prepared in the kitchen disappeared..."

If it wasn't for everyone's pull, Wen Xu would have rushed down to break the food halberd!

"Damn boy, if he loses, he will never be spared!" Wen Xu said bitterly.

And Liu Maoxing took out another large wine bottle, which was filled with a transparent liquid, presumably it should be wine, and the people in Jixing Liao looked at Liangzi one after another.

Unexpectedly, Liangzi also showed a puzzled look, and Dawu couldn't help asking: "What's the matter? That's the bar you brewed?"

"Well... it should be, he asked me for some Chinese liquor before, but the amount should be much larger... Could it be that Ah Xing is an alcoholic?" Liangzi asked suspiciously.

Other than these three, Liu Maoxing only used other basic ingredients prepared by the "Food Halberd Administration".

First, clean the whole duck with a saber, and then add various spices to it...

However, except for the people from Jixing Liao, most of the others focused their attention on Mito Yumei and A5 Beef.

A small number of students who looked at Liu Maoxing also wore tinted glasses, as if they wanted to watch the excitement. Only a very small number of people discovered that Liu Maoxing's superb sword skills are by no means ordinary!

"Huh? It doesn't look like roast duck?" Marui Zenji asked doubtfully.

When Liu Maoxing took out the wild duck before, everyone in Jixing Liao guessed that he was cooking roast duck. After all, Liu Maoxing also said that he was good at Chinese cuisine...

And at this moment, under Wen Xu's murderous gaze, Liu Maoxing unpacked two large bags of salt and poured them into the basin one by one!

"Hey, hey, is this going to kill people?" Everyone no longer knew what Liu Maoxing was going to do.

Especially after Liu Maoxing took out the prepared eggs at the venue...

Liu Maoxing suddenly remembered something, and pointed an egg in Erina's direction with vicious humor, and shook it!

You must know that during the entrance examination, Erina's topic was egg cooking. Seeing Liu Maoxing's obvious provocation, Erina kicked all the chairs over.

If it wasn't for Fei Shazi, there would be one more person who would rush to the food halberd field!

"Bastard bastard bastard! Fei Sazi, did you see that! He's provoking, provoking!" Erina said angrily.

Especially thinking about what happened on the day of the entrance examination, Erina wanted to see the moment when Liu Maoxing was declared never to enter the kitchen...

After the provocation, Liu Maoxing prepared another small basin next to a basin of salt, and then quickly flew his hands between the eggs, the salt basin, and the empty basin!

At the same time, there were only two boxes of eggs. Before everyone could see clearly, they had turned into egg skins, a small pot of egg yolks, and whites mixed in a salt pot.

Among them, Liu Maoxing put the egg yolk in a fresh-keeping bag and put it in the refrigerator. It was obviously not ready to be used. After that, it was like kneading noodles, mixing salt and protein liquid into a muddy state...

"No matter how many times I watch it, Ah Xing's basic skills are so pleasing to the eye." Chuangzhen sighed.

"But now it's not just about basic skills...and who knows what he's going to do?" Zenji Marui, who always claimed to be knowledgeable, couldn't understand.

Just when Mito Yumei had finished dividing the beef, marinating it on the spot, and preparing the sauce, and it was almost certain that it was ready for steak dishes, Liu Maoxing was still cutting at a leisurely pace.
