Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Okay, next is the group with a total of 700 copies... Huh? No? The 800 copies... not yet? The 900 copies? Well, 1000 copies, let's go get the ingredients."

Liu Maoxing and Ha Shanliang can be sure at this time that this drooping-eyed Kakuzaki Taki is definitely targeting them both!

They were the only group left with no ingredients, yet they still pretended to roll their names one by one...

As for the reason for them, now the two can only understand that there is some conflict between her and Xi Jianrun.

At the same time, Liu Maoxing and Ye Shanliang walked to the dining car with dark faces. At this time, all kinds of fruits and vegetables were still abundant, but the seafood was only some frozen vacuum-packed shrimps, and even fresh prawns were gone!

Spanish seafood risotto, usually add shrimp, clams, squid, some also add crab meat, fish meat, green pepper, red pepper, tomato, onion and other vegetables for seasoning, but now there are only some frozen shrimp, which is obviously difficult for others !

Seeing the embarrassment of Liu Maoxing and Ye Shanliang, some bad students already laughed...

After all, the two of them were very popular in the morning, but now they are unlucky, giving them a feeling of turning over to be the masters, and even have an inexplicable sense of superiority.

Of course, there are also many students with normal three views who want to distribute some ingredients to Liu Maoxing and Ye Shanliang. Firstly, it is out of humanitarian spirit, and secondly, it is also possible to make friends with the two, which is not usually the case.

But Taki Kadozaki immediately said: "Choosing ingredients is the foundation of a cook! After everyone has selected ingredients, they cannot exchange them!"

"Wait, Chef Tsunozaki, we haven't finished the selection, but we don't have any ingredients, and these are not enough for seafood risotto! Let's go out and borrow some..."

"Of course not! Are you going to let the customers wait and then go to buy the ingredients? Well, let's start cooking honestly! This time, because the morning class starts at 8:30, there is no time limit. Qualified people can leave early, of course... Although there is no limit, but at half past twelve, the afternoon class will start, and if you are late, you will be expelled!" Taki Kadozaki waved his hands impatiently.

Liu Maoxing and Ye Shanliang saw that it was irreparable, so they had to start to find a way by themselves!

"If there are only shrimps...wait!" Liu Maoxing suddenly thought of something.

I saw Liu Maoxing copied a few tomatoes, and then used a paring knife...

Although paring knives are indeed used to peel vegetables and fruits, tomatoes should be peeled by hand anyway!

But Liu Maoxing held a small paring knife in each hand, and his movements were gentle as if he was operating on a patient. , blooming like petals in full bloom, revealing the flesh inside.

After Liu Maoxing opened a bag of vacuum-packed shrimp, Ye Shanliang reminded: "What are you doing? Don't waste it..."

"Huh? There are plenty of shrimps, right? If you don't try anything, you'll be 'wasting more than twice as much'." Liu Maoxing said helplessly.

Indeed, the two of them took a lot of vacuum shrimp. Obviously, this kind of shrimp, which was only the size of a thumb belly, was looked down upon by other students. Except for the last few groups, no one even moved it at all!

But when it came to Liu Maoxing and the others, only this kind of vacuum-packed shrimp was left in the seafood...

Seeing this, Ye Shanliang also sighed, no longer stopped, but watched from the side.

I saw that Liu Maoxing put the peeled tomatoes into the pot, added a very small amount of water, and stewed them dry with various ingredients. Taking advantage of this time, he used various spices to make the bottom of the pot obviously spicy. Then add the shrimp and stir-fry.

The instant fire shocked the surrounding students!

"Chinese cuisine is good at stir-frying with high fire to draw out and preserve the deliciousness of the ingredients... This is the essence of 'fire cooking'!"

"It sounds like you said it very well, did you put the rice in?" Ye Shanliang complained silently.

"..."

Liu Maoxing was choked by him, and he didn't make a sound for a long time. When the time was right, he fished out part of the rice that he had soaked in water before picking the ingredients, and put it in the pot to continue frying.

At this time, the tomato soup was overflowing. Liu Maoxing added a few tablespoons of the rich tomato sauce to the pot, and then continued to stir fry a few times, then covered the lid and started to simmer...

"You...is this risotto?" Ye Shanliang always felt something strange.

"Of, of course! It's obvious, isn't it? Hahaha..." Liu Maoxing laughed dryly.

That's right, Liu Maoxing mixed his real cooking skills halfway this time, and "adjusted" the recipes. Although he has "adjusted" before, this time is the biggest adjustment!

The original recipe used this time is "Tomato and Shrimp Fried Rice", a recipe in the comics that passed the assessment of Ding You (the real name of "Master Jidi", which was forcibly named by "Jidi Dumpling" in the animation) in Xiaodangjia After staying at Yangquan Restaurant, the recipes that appeared during the time period before participating in the special chef assessment...

At that time, there was a French chef humiliating Chinese cuisine. After the young boss scolded the other party, the French chef proposed to have a cooking showdown at the banquet of the French ambassador.

As the judges are all French who are accustomed to Western cuisine, Xiaodangjia used "tomato and shrimp fried rice" to defeat the French chef's "Bilaf mixed fried rice".

Because at the end of the Qing Dynasty, tomato, just like it was commonly known as "tomato", was an imported vegetable from the West. It originated in America. From the 15th century, the colonial countries of Western Europe began to introduce tomatoes. It was planted at the beginning of the 20th century, and tomatoes were considered "rare" in the late Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, in traditional Chinese cuisine, there is no tomato as a raw material or ingredient, but Xiaodangjia broke through the original thinking at that time and realized that "food has no borders", so he used the most suitable tomato sauce, which not only improved The mellow aroma of "spicy fried shrimp" is more in line with the taste of Westerners after it is covered with fried rice.

That's right, the original method of this recipe has not been changed until Liu Maoxing puts in the raw rice...

However, in the original recipe, Xiaodangjia cooked a portion of "golden fried rice" alone, and then poured the spicy fried shrimp mixed with tomato soup and cornstarch to thicken the effect, and poured it on the fried rice with the soup. , It has a posture of combining fried rice and rice bowl.

Risotto is different from fried rice and rice bowl. The most obvious difference is that cooked rice is usually used for fried rice. Although it can be fried quickly with high heat, it can also be fried with raw rice, but the result is not that the hard core of the rice is not cooked through. It’s just too greasy, and cooked rice has water in it, so you can isolate the oil, or you can use raw rice that has been soaked in water for a long time, and you can fry it quickly, but few people do this...

Risotto is different. It uses uncooked rice and stir-fries it with all kinds of soupy dishes and then cooks it, so that the soup will seep into the rice, making the taste rich and mellow.

Although there is no inheritance relationship between Western-style "risotto" and "lazy rice" in Chinese cuisine, the principle is actually the same. The so-called "lazy rice" in the Bayu area refers to stir-fried vegetables, stewed vegetables, pickled vegetables and even stewed vegetables, Pickled vegetables and raw rice are boiled at the same time, because the process is simple and the taste is delicious, forming a special "lazy rice", which is generally believed to be the founder of Louhu, the prefect of Guanghan in the Han Dynasty...

After about 20 minutes, Liu Maoxing served the risotto version of "Fried Rice with Tomato and Shrimp". It was not yet half past nine, so it was the first group to complete.

After all, other groups have real fresh shrimps that need to be peeled and deveined, but Liu Maoxing only has vacuum-packed shrimps!

However, both Liu Maoxing and Ye Shanliang did not intend to hand over this thing, but each tasted it first, and they both put a spoonful of risotto full of soup and shrimps into their mouths at the same time.

The right ratio of spices makes the spicy taste seem to burst out... and the most rare thing is that the savory taste of the shrimp is faintly set off by the spiciness of the stew, which is also combined with the elegant taste of the rice! Ye Shanliang thought about it, and at the same time silently glanced at Liu Maoxing.

But Liu Maoxing frowned slightly, and after noticing the wildness in Ye Shanliang's gaze, he couldn't help but whispered: "Hey, hey, if you want to win or lose with me, you must first not drop out of school! "

"Interesting, is this the 'God's Tongue'?" Ye Shanliang muttered.

However, Liu Maoxing was actually not satisfied with this "risotto version fried rice with tomato and shrimp".

Originally, although this dish was the lowest level among the one-time recipes, it also had a "superior one star", but after being improved by Liu Maoxing, although it changed from fried rice to risotto, it fell to the peak of "advanced five star", only It is close to "super one star"!

After tasting it, Liu Maoxing couldn't help thinking to himself: Sure enough, because of the improved part, I can only use my own real cooking skills, so there is still room for optimization in the timing of adding raw rice, and it has changed from fried rice to risotto. It is also necessary to change the concentration of the soup slightly...

And although Ye Shanliang could see some of Liu Maoxing's strength from this "impromptu" risotto, he also had no intention of presenting this.

Obviously, it is far from enough to make that bad girl with drooping eyes speechless. The most important thing is...

"This can't be called 'Spanish Seafood Risotto' at all, right? No, it's not even 'Seafood Risotto'! Some profiteers there will only use cheap vacuum shrimp to make 'Seafood Risotto'!" Ye Shanliang Said helplessly.

"Huh? I think so? With these ingredients, you can make a 'seafood risotto' for me? Am I the one who wants to be a profiteer? Wait...a profiteer?" Liu Maoxing suddenly thought of something.

"What did you think of?" Ye Shanliang asked.

"Have you heard of bionic seafood? For example, potatoes and carrots can make vegetarian crab noodles?"
