Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Comic Meat..."

Liu Maoxing pondered for a moment in front of a stick figure of "manga meat" in the cooking room.

The stick figure was drawn by Liu Maoxing himself, not the one chewed by Godzilla.

The topic of "Manga Meat" has a lot of flexibility in its openness. If you expand the openness, whether it starts from the image or the symbolic meaning, it is enough to make the cuisine show its strengths and ideas...

The simplest, all kinds of dishes that imitate the image of "comic meat" are enough to make countless tricks.

If it is further expanded, start with its "symbolic meaning", that is, to make dishes that "can be recognized as a large piece of meat at a glance", and there are countless cuisines and dishes that can be tried!

At this time, Liu Maoxing thought of countless possibilities and countless changes in his mind...

But just like topics such as "curry" and "pizza", because they are too open, it is difficult to decide on the recipe!

And to a certain extent, the degree of openness of "comic meat" is higher than the two!

The most important thing is that Liu Maoxing only has about 28 hours now, and there will be a "cooking showdown" tomorrow night...

Originally, Liu Maoxing didn't take this matter to heart at all, thinking that "the leader of a small research club who doesn't know what to do can be dismissed at will", and whether he is promoted or demoted, it is up to the jury to decide. Doing just "easy wins".

But now that he knew that his opponent was Nakiri Erinao, Liu Maoxing naturally didn't dare to hold on to his previous mentality.

Although Erina has never defeated herself once, but every time Liu Maoxing has not won any overwhelming victory!

The biggest result is the previous ranking, which is also thanks to the "Sun" chef's heart.

As time passed by, Liu Maoxing also experimented with one kind of recipe after another. Some of them looked very similar to "manga meat", while others played the same symbolic role as "manga meat". Instinctively thought: Wow! What a big piece of meat...

"No, it still feels like something is missing! Manga **** drawing? Meat?"

After Liu Maoxing tasted another experimental recipe, he squinted his eyes and thought about it. Just now, a flash of inspiration seemed to flash in his heart, but he didn't catch it right away...

At the same time, Erina was also in the cooking room with Hisako, Saotome Romance, and Mito Yumei, discussing the recipes to be used tomorrow night.

When there are no unexpected situations or when there are other matters arranged by Erina to deal with, Feisha stays with the eldest lady all year round, and the reason why Saotome is romantic is naturally because Erina promised her before, in the "Revenge Recipe" In terms of creation, she can also participate in it and enjoy the pleasure of "revenging herself"...

Moreover, Saotome has a lot of research on recreating utopian dishes in manga, and she also has a lot of research on manga... Although she is not good at drawing!

As for the reason why Yu Mei is here, needless to say, with the theme of "manga meat", there are experts in "manga", and experts in "meat" cooking are also indispensable.

Facing Liu Maoxing, Erina mercilessly brought out the strongest lineup, and even "borrowed" Liu Maoxing's nominal maid...

"Ling'er, do you have any suggestions... um? What's the matter, since the morning council meeting, you've been on your mind, neither praying nor saying anything. Is it because of the fake jade dragon pot?"

In her heart, Erina asked Ling'er who "wrote the four characters 'I have something on my mind' on her face".

It's rare for Erina to have a "heart-to-heart talk" with her chef when she has nothing to do!

"It's nothing, a fake is a fake, I don't care why the other party did this, I just remembered something from the past... Forget it! Don't talk about this, I will continue to pray, and I will continue to pray for the 'cooking showdown' afterwards." Don't get involved," Ling'er said.

When I met Liu Maoxing at the Manga Cooking Research Institute, Erina also "heard" that Linger and Liu Maoxing had an agreement that Linger would not appear in tomorrow night's "cooking showdown" as a chef, and in exchange Liu Maoxing would not Using the "sun" kitchen heart, Erina has no complaints.

Although there is a "willful" kitchen heart, which makes Erina feel very awkward, but seeing Linger's appearance, Erina also instinctively does not want to disturb her...

When encountering interesting things, such as the previous "Top Ten Qualifying Competition", Linger herself also showed "exuberant interest", making people feel like a real, innocent girl... Erina also felt very awkward describing her cooking heart like this for the first time!

However, most of the time, Ling'er always seems to be worried about something. Looking at her most frequently posed prayer poses, Erina can't help but think of the idiom in Chinese "to worry about the sky"...

That's right, it's like worrying that the sky will fall at any moment!

What concerned Erina the most was Linger's attitude towards Liu Maoxing, which was obviously different from others...

Sometimes even Erina herself finds it ridiculous. Could it be that her heart of cooking will become her "rival in love"?

The reason why Erina felt that Linger had a different attitude towards Liu Maoxing was because until now, the only name Erina had heard in Linger's mouth other than her was "Liu Maoxing", and she was "that one" to everyone else. Who" or "that guy" or something like that...

But gradually, she also felt this "difference", as if she had nothing to do with her love rival!

Erina didn't know exactly what this attitude meant, so she had no choice but to comfort herself with "Aside from me, only Ah Xing can feel her presence, so naturally her attitude will be different"...

Erina didn't hear it. Ling'er opened her eyes once again after barely entering the state of praying again, and at the same time said to herself in a worried tone: "At the beginning we sealed the two jade dragon pots and postponed the eighth god's prayer. With the arrival of the catastrophe, I don't know if it is right or wrong... But the suspension is only a suspension after all, and the time left for us is running out!

But it has indeed played a role, human beings are truly unbelievable that in a hundred years, there has been such a great improvement in cooking..."

How much time is left for Linger, no one else knows, but the time left for Erina and Liu Maoxing is indeed running out!

Liu Maoxing and Erina's team almost didn't close their eyes all night. They only squinted for a while in the afternoon of the second day, and then rushed to "Between the Moon and the Sky"...

The two are always extra serious when facing each other's cooking confrontation!

Although the purpose of this "cooking duel" is not very important, it is just for a small research institute to review, no matter what the result is, it will only increase or decrease the funding by 10%...

Erina is only a name in the "Manga Cuisine Research Institute". Saotome herself established this research institute just to find some like-minded students to study "Manga Cuisine" together, and it does not take up much money.

So 10% of the budget is probably not enough to go to a three-star restaurant once a month and taste the real three-star cuisine!

But because the two sides in the duel are Liu Maoxing and Erina, who are the ten heroes, it is still arranged in "Between the Moon and the Sky", and there are quite a lot of spectators.

"Dear students, hello everyone! The just-concluded 'Battle of the Ten Heroes' still makes everyone linger, right? Kawashima is like everyone else. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to come to 'Moon and Sky' again soon. Watch it again To the cooking showdown between the ten masters!"

Rei Kawashima's voice sounded again between the moon and the sky.

"Although tonight's duel is not 'Food Halberd', it is also a culinary duel between the ten masters, and the judgment of victory and defeat is exactly the same as 'Food Halberd', but it does not follow the food halberd in terms of bets. The rules! And the two sides of the duel are the first seat and the second seat at the top of the Top Ten... Liu Maoxing and Nakiri Erina!"

Under Kawashima Rei's fiery atmosphere, Liu Maoxing and Erina walked in from the passages on both sides of the venue between Yuetian.

The reason why it is not a "food halberd" is because the purpose of the duel, that is, the increase and decrease of the research club's funding, does not completely follow the outcome of the two sides, but depends on whether the representative of the "Manga Cuisine Research Club" is in line with the requirements. The level of the expense now occupied!

Cheers immediately erupted from the auditorium. At this time, only the students and lecturers of Yuanyue were the audience. After all, it was only a research agency review within Yuanyue College. If the Ten Heroes had to go off in person to demonstrate the role, I am afraid that no one would pay attention.

Even if outsiders are interested in Liu Maoxing's and Erina's rematch, without Yuanyue's invitation, they would not be able to come...

After successfully winning the "No. 1 seat among the Ten Heroes", Liu Maoxing's popularity has finally risen from a negative value!

Of course, there were also some strange rumors, which became more and more intense among the students.

For example, Liu Maoxing wanted to review the purpose of the "Manga Cuisine Research Club". Some said it was to coerce the girls in the research club to achieve the "indescribable" purpose; "; Some people even said that yesterday afternoon, Saotome Romance, who was the main general, was forced to watch the "undescribable" parts by Liu Maoxing...

In short, while the popularity is soaring, Liu Maoxing's title of "Destruction Dragon of the Gourmet Empire" is about to be replaced by "Indescribable Gentleman"...

Before, Liu Maoxing was obsessed with preparing recipes and didn't care about the rumors of the outside world, but now his face became embarrassing when he appeared on stage.

Although the loudest voice was still cheers, the voices of discussion hidden in it naturally couldn't be hidden from Liu Maoxing's super-acoustic sense!

The "rumors" are obviously pure fictions, but in the fictions, they are all slightly close to the "truth"...

"Ai, Li, Si!" Liu Maoxing said through gritted teeth.

Apart from Second Miss, there is no one else who knows the truth and can be so vicious!

Yesterday afternoon, when I went to the "Xingshi Inquiry", in order to list Alice's evidence and the harm I suffered, Liu Maoxing specifically talked about the embarrassing things that happened to me when I went to the Manga Cooking Research Institute...

Unexpectedly, not only did not make Alice "repent from her mistakes", but it became one of the basis of "rumors" so quickly!

But at this moment, Liu Maoxing also remembered what happened after Xingshi's indictment, the touch on the earlobe was still there, and his mood suddenly became complicated...

"If I were you, I wouldn't be distracted during the cooking duel." Erina's voice came over.

"Don't worry, I'm serious."

After the two whispered a few words, they immediately returned to their own cooking tables!

At this time, you can also see the ingredients used by both parties. The most obvious thing is that each prepared a pot of bones. The same point is that they look very regular in shape, and they all look like typical molar bones...

The difference is that the bones on Erina's side are obviously thinner, probably half the length of the forearm!

Judging from the nearly uniform size, length, and regular appearance of these bones, it was obvious that they were carefully selected by the two of them.

"Ah Xing used a wild boar leg bone, but Erina's is... a turkey leg bone, right?" Yuuji said off the court.

Although 90% of the flesh on the bones had been shaved off, Yuuji still recognized the bones they used!

Next is the time to "perform" knife skills, whether it is a cooking duel or a food halberd, there are restrictions on "preprocessing".

Be it wild boar leg bones or turkey leg bones, it is fine to be sent to the field as an "ingredient", but if it is a bone that has been shaved and shaved clean, it is not in compliance with the rules!

I saw that the two of them took out the carving knife at the same time...

Usually this kind of knife is used to carve fruits and rhizomes as decorations.

While good for some delicate handling, the blade isn't strong enough to cut meat.

Ordinary cooks use carving knives to peel off the muscles on the leg bones, which may cause damage to the knives...

However, this kind of common sense question is obviously not effective for Liu Maoxing and Erina.

I saw the two hands flying. Erina used his left hand to press the turkey leg bone horizontally on the cooking table, and his right hand used a carving knife to separate the attached muscles. Liu Maoxing erected the wild boar leg bone and turned his right hand downward Hold one end of the wild boar leg bone, and the other end on the cooking table. While shaking the carved knife in the left hand around the leg bone, the right hand seems to be shaking the joystick of the game console, matching the wild boar leg bone The carved knife kept shaking.

It felt like only a few seconds had passed, Liu Maoxing lightly tossed the wild boar leg bone again, and held it in the middle of the bone when catching it, and then placed the carving knife at the two ends, simply using the right hand holding the wild boar leg bone Shake it to realize the carving of the bone with the carving knife...

It looks quite rough!

If it wasn't for knowing that Liu Maoxing had already reached the pinnacle of knife skills, everyone would have thought he was destroying kitchen utensils.

After a while, when Liu Maoxing put down the wild boar leg bone, there was no trace of red meat on it, and the fascia and cartilage tissue had also been separated cleanly...

It wasn't until Liu Maoxing solved the three wild boar leg bones that Erina picked up the second turkey leg bone!

Although the speed is a bit slower, the level of sophistication of the processing is the same...
