Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

In the banquet hall of the "Eel Banquet" in Hokkaido, both the central gourmet agency and Liu Maoxing have completed the third round of cooking, and the scene is already "polarized"...

It's hard to say whether Liu Maoxing did it on purpose, anyway, the third round of "Silver Dragon Meat" was completed right after the third round of "Avocado Eel Cake".

In the second round, Liu Maoxing's "Silver Dragon Meat" has already attracted more diners. Although most of the customers must have the attitude of trying both eel dishes, but seeing that they have already tasted " "Silver Dragon Meat" has more positive reviews than "Avocado Eel Cake", especially when there are some unqualified "repeat customers", most of the diners still choose to come to Liu Maoxing's place first!

Yes, it is obviously not a moral thing to be a "repeat customer" on this occasion, but many people are doing this now, and most of them are gourmets...

As for the "Avocado Eel Cake", this is not the case at all. Obviously, the super four-star cuisine is not enough to make the gourmets present give up their integrity.

In fact, Liu Maoxing himself was also very surprised. Originally, he expected that his "Silver Dragon Meat" would definitely be more successful than the cuisine of the "Central Gourmet Organization", but... it was already close to the level of a three-star chef, which he did not dare to do before. Thought!

You must know that the recipe of "Silver Dragon Meat" itself is only a super five-star... that is, the limit of a one-time recipe.

Even when using this recipe, Liu Maoxing uses Food Control at the same time, barely reaching the level of a one-star chef, which is already the limit...

And this is still under the condition that this thing is really an ingredient of "Silver Dragon Meat"!

In fact, Liu Maoxing discovered from the very beginning that although this giant eel can be used as an ingredient for "Silver Dragon Meat", it is not the best ingredient...

First of all, during the first period in China, the giant eels discovered by "Liu Maoxing" and Lan Feihong were larger than this, and they were river eels. The giant eels in front of us were caught near the junction of sea and fresh water, regardless of size or species. It's not the same, it's just that it can be "handled with".

So Liu Maoxing made some improvements to the recipe of "Silver Dragon Meat". First of all, the stuffed colloid...

Apparently, a hundred years ago, "Liu Maoxing" and Lan Feihong couldn't have made this kind of thing no matter how good they were. Back then, they only used raw pork slices, which had the same effect. When "steaming", remove the strong earthy smell of giant eels.

This is just "optimization". After all, with the new cooking equipment, the colloid that uses collagen in pig's trotters as the main material is better than using pork slices directly, and you don't have to worry about the eel meat being tasted like pork. infestation

Moreover, other spice ingredients are added in it, which can more thoroughly remove the fishy smell.

Afterwards, according to the method of making "Silver Dragon Meat" in the recipe, the cooking method of "five heavy soups" is used, that is, five different broths are used to boil one by one to balance the taste of giant eel meat.

However, Liu Maoxing expressed doubts about the accuracy of this "five-fold soup", because the giant eel that the "five-fold soup" targeted was the giant river eel discovered in the first period of China, but now this one is half a seafood ah!

But it doesn't matter, now Liu Maoxing's real culinary skills have already reached a three-star superstar, and can reach a four-star superstar when he stimulates the food defense effect...Recently, "food defense" is still in a period of rapid rise, and now it is close to a five-star superstar.

So as long as Liu Maoxing knows the principle of "five layers of soup", he can naturally make adaptive changes according to the nature of the current giant eels...

And there is another reference for Liu Maoxing, which is "Sishen Seafood Eight Treasures Town Soul Steamed Bread"!

Under the improvement of the Luo family from generation to generation, it is not only the king of "noodles", but also a treasure in "seafood" cuisine.

Although all kinds of star chefs are now making tiger-level dishes at every turn, the "Sishen Babao Seafood Zhenhun Man" which seems to be only a special four-star dish is not very eye-catching, but in fact, those tiger-level dishes, if you do not use In terms of food sense and culinary heart, it is very rare to have a super three-star, and a super four-star is already a very high attainment!

It's like a modern tower. It's normal to build a pyramid taller, but the latter is a world-class miracle...

So Liu Maoxing changed the "five-fold soup" to "eight-fold soup", and also used eight kinds of dried seafood such as sea cucumber, shark's fin, abalone, scallop, crab, shrimp, squid, and flounder...

The difference from the "five-fold soup" is that they use the same kind of broth, that is, kelp broth and pure marine plant broth as the soup base, which is boiled after adding eight kinds of dried seafood. The clear soup is actually the original clear kelp broth, so the eight flavors can be unified in the end!

Moreover, the resulting taste makes it impossible to connect with eel, or even the giant eel meat of the "Central Gourmet Organ".

Of course, if this is "only", this "Silver Dragon Meat" is only at the level of a super five-star extreme. After all, it is just a super five-star recipe that is not completely in tune, plus Liu Maoxing's super four-star repair, if you don't use "cooking heart" , it is very difficult to forcefully break through to the tiger level...

However, Liu Maoxing only discovered when the first round of cooking was about to be completed that the eel meat itself had a "cooking heart"!

And the meaning represented by this "cooking heart" is exactly similar to "masculinity" and "excitement".

The increase is not small, directly pushing the "Silver Dragon Meat" to the level of two stars in the tiger class, close to three stars!

In fact, the reason for the illusion of being cured from a cold is more due to the invigorating effect of "cooking heart". Otherwise, although eel meat itself has medicinal value, it would not be so powerful.

Of course, to some extent, many lesions will also play a relieving role if the patient's mind is uplifted.

For the eel meat that Liu Maoxing took earlier, he made a total of five batches of "Silver Dragon Meat", and the fifth batch only had a dozen...

"Okay everyone, this is the last 'Silver Dragon Meat'. After that... you can try the 'Avocado Eel Cake' over there, it's almost cold, haha." Liu Maoxing said with a smile.

At the same time, I also glanced at the people from the "Central Gourmet Agency". Although it was just a normal smile, even Nantaro and others felt that there was provocation in this smile!

At this time, the people from the "Central Gourmet Agency" only made four rounds... because the finished products of the fourth round have not been taken away yet!

Although the super four-star cuisine itself is not uncommon, it is definitely not something that can be cooked casually. Looking back at the beginning when Liu Maoxing hadn't finished cooking, the diners praised them, and you know that there is gold in it.

Super four-star, plus the freshness brought by the "giant eel", the attraction cannot be considered small...

But after Liu Maoxing's "Silver Dragon Meat" was completed, there was a stark contrast...

After all, one side is dishes that can be used as signature dishes in two-star restaurants, and the other side is just ordinary dishes in star-rated restaurants!

Because many of the signature dishes of two-star restaurants require "cooking heart" to complete, it is difficult to make a reservation for the signature dishes of two-star restaurants, which is completely different from the difficulty of tasting the signature dishes of one-star restaurants.

Why is Kojiro Shinomiya so famous with the name of a two-star restaurant?

Because his signature dish itself is close to three stars, but there is no official certification, and although reservations are required, compared with dishes of the same level, it is equivalent to accepting unlimited reservations!

Because he doesn't use the kitchen heart, he can make an appointment as long as he has time...

In most cases of other two-star restaurants, diners who have no connections can at most book the "shrunk version", that is, those without cooking heart, because cooks with cooking heart also need to consume too much energy to continue. Use "Chef Heart"

"Wait! Student Liu Maoxing, I haven't tasted it once..."

"Yes, me too!"

"Nonsense, you were the one who snatched the one I was interested in just now!"

"Ahem, I mean I haven't tasted enough..."

Many Lao Tie tried to keep Liu Maoxing back. In this world, this is not considered a disrespectful thing. After all, even believers who are fasting for religious reasons will be lured into "degenerate" by excellent cooks. "...

And this kind of cook who has played a demonic effect will probably become more famous because of it. There are always such news in gourmet magazines... The principle is probably the same as the name "Buddha jumps over the wall", which sounds delicious and intuitive.

Seeing this, Liu Maoxing also looked embarrassed.

Hmm... It is true that some guys who have abandoned their integrity have already tasted more than two servings, so some people have not tasted "Silver Dragon Meat" yet!

"Hey, in fact, I can't help it. The rest of the giant eel will be sent to other institutions in Yuanyue..."

"It doesn't matter if we use some more, right? After all, you are one of the top ten!" Someone suggested.

"No, no, no, I'm one of the top ten with principles! I won't touch ingredients from other departments!" Liu Maoxing had a dignified look on his face.

Seeing this scene, Hiroi Reiko and the people from the Central Gourmet Agency couldn't help but have a bad feeling in their hearts.

Sure enough, I saw Liu Maoxing's "great and upright" face, but he secretly glanced at Lian Nantaro and others from time to time...

Immediately, other diners also reacted, and quickly suggested: "The parts of other departments cannot be moved, but the Hokkaido branch still has unused quota, right?"

"That's right! There seems to be some left in the Central Gourmet Agency..."

"Why don't you leave those to Liu Maoxing to take care of?"

"This... I think it's okay! Anyway, the 'Avocado Eel Cake' seems to be enough!"

Hiroi Reiko, Lian Kuantaro and others couldn't help but turn green when they heard these words.

Ryokoshi was the first to take the lead and directly "asked" Hiroi Reiko for instructions...

Of course, she said she was "asking for instructions", but she couldn't refuse at all!

Although many people have seen that the relationship between Hiroi Reiko and the "Central Gourmet Organization" is unusual, but these eel meats are not from the "Central Gourmet Organization". Now the guests hope that Liu Maoxing will cook them. "What's the position to refuse?

Hiroi Reiko can think of an excuse to forcefully refuse, but is it not shameful to keep the cooking qualification in this way?

I'm afraid it will dissatisfy the guests present, especially those who have not tasted the "Silver Dragon Meat"...

At that time, maybe the "avocado eel cake" is made and no one takes it, so it will be even more shameful!

So in the end, although Reiko Hiroi knew that what happened today would definitely be published in the newspapers tomorrow, or even tonight, she had already seen some food writers, food journalists, and food website editors among the guests, recording something! But still can only bite the bullet and allow it...

When Liu Maoxing brought over the uncooked eel meat from the "Central Gourmet Organization", he murmured in a low voice, "Who said that the cooking ingredients are related to the dignity of the cook? I took your dignity away again... ...the second time! No, maybe you don't have such advanced things as 'dignity'..."

For a moment, the faces of Lian Nantaro and others were even more exciting than the ornamental and edible "kale"...

Although their eels are chunky, but Liu Maoxing made a slight change, and adjusted the coagulation of the colloid made by the equipment to be lower, and then spread it on the surface of the eel chunks, and then adjusted the boiling time, it can still be perfect. Reproduce "Silver Dragon Meat"!

At the same time, Liu Maoxing is also thinking about the issue of "cooking heart" in the ingredients...

This is what Liu Maoxing encountered. The second kind of ingredients with "cooking heart", and the first kind of "Shuhan old noodles" cooking heart, is obviously catalyzed by the years, artificially produced kitchen heart, and now the giant Eel meat is natural!

Liu Maoxing couldn't help but have a guess, if it can be realized...
