Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"It's not a coincidence for you to come, there is nothing left in the cafeteria today!" Wen Xu brought Chuangzhen and Liu Maoxing to the tidy kitchen.

"Wow! It's completely different from the outside, the kitchen here is perfect!" Chuangzhen exclaimed.

"Except that there are no ingredients..." Liu Maoxing said looking at the leftovers.

In terms of vegetables, there are only some ingredients left for seasoning, nothing left for meat, and some flour and rice... It is more comprehensive in terms of discretion!

Liu Maoxing suddenly slapped his palm and said: "By the way, the elderly should not eat too much for dinner, just cook a bowl of noodles!"

"Bastard! Brat, if you underestimate me, 'Maria of the Pole Star', prepare to sleep in the wild for a year!" Wen Xu felt that this kid was really hateful.

And Chuangzhen looked at it carefully, and then smiled confidently: "Grandma Wenxu, just wait a moment!"

"Hmph, cooking with leftovers in a hurry can't satisfy me! Why don't you be like another brat and give up quickly!" Wen Xu urged.

"Who said I gave up? Chuangzhen, leave me four eggs, don't use them all!" Liu Maoxing said.

"Oh? Are you going to try it too? How about doing it again?"

"I don't have any objections..." Liu Maoxing said and glanced at Wenxu who was the only referee.

Wen Xu was also curious about where they got their confidence, so he couldn't help saying: "Okay, then I'll see what you can do! But let me tell you first, your victory or defeat does not affect whether you are qualified! It is estimated that the two of you I'm going to sleep outside for a few days..."

While Wen Xu was speaking, the two had already entered the preparation process.

Chuangzhen chopped the onion and mixed bread crumbs and eggs, as if he was going to make a batter, but Wen Xu didn't remember what else could be fried in the kitchen!

But Liu Maoxing's method was even more weird. He found an ultra-small crucible, and after adding some water and baking soda, it could be boiled on the fire. It's time for a meeting.

Looks like he's determined to cook noodles...

"Hey, hey, hey! You already told me that I don't eat noodles in clear soup! Brat, believe it or not, I'll whip you!"

"Don't speak too soon! Wenxu Maria!"

Liu Maoxing suddenly smiled and grabbed four eggs with one hand, and then pinched them on the flour basin to break all four eggs, and the egg whites and egg liquid were sprinkled into the flour without leaking.

Wen Xu was even more upset: "Boy, are you wasting ingredients? Even if you want to add raw eggs to the dough, you should beat the eggs first, then mix the noodles with water, and then gradually add the evenly stirred egg liquid Right! And you added too many eggs!"

"No, don't compare me with those mediocre cooks! Water? I don't need that kind of thing in my noodles!"

I saw Liu Maoxing moved his hands together and mixed the dough with the egg liquid, as if he wanted to use the egg liquid to knead the dough...

"Even if you can barely make it together, the final result will definitely be a hard lump. Are you going to make sliced ​​or sliced ​​noodles? Even so, the taste must be very dry..." Wen Xu said.

"No, it's ramen!"

"Pull, pull noodles? Don't be kidding! It's strange if you can pull it!" Wen Xu said that he couldn't accept it.

"I said before, don't compare me with those mediocre cooks, common sense... is for breaking! Ahhhh!"

I saw Liu Maoxing talking, and the speed of the meeting was getting faster and faster. At first glance, it seemed that there were several extra arms...

And every time the palm falls on the face, if you look confidently, you can find that it is a variety of different postures, which seem to be chaotic but seem to have a certain pattern!

Under the effect of the "one-time menu", Liu Maoxing's physical strength, strength, and agility have all been greatly improved. Don't underestimate the strength of the Chinese little master. The five tiger stars in the dark cooking world are definitely at the level of martial arts masters. They are as cunning as rabbits , The ability to carry a tripod is not enough to describe!

"Hey, hey, hey... After all, it's a waste of effort..." Wen Xu no longer believed that eggs alone could make the noodles into a state that could be stretched.

Liu Maoxing stopped for a while in the middle, and put the large lump of noodles aside, as if he wanted to "cook the noodles", that is, after kneading the noodles, let them stand for a while before cooking.

At this time, Liu Maoxing was not idle either, and went to pick up the crucible that had been boiled for half a day with baking soda, let it sit for the same reason, and then took the clear liquid from above, and tasted it.

Afterwards, I added a small spoonful to the "egg noodles" and continued to knead for a few more minutes. This time, the movements were a little slower... At the same time, Wen Xu was also shocked to find that Liu Maoxing's movements had become smoother!

After kneading a few more times, he grabbed the dough with both arms and stretched it out, and the dough was stretched out effortlessly! It doesn't look like noodles without water at all...

"How, how is it possible?" Wen Xu's eyes widened.

On the other side, Chuangzhen had already installed the things he had fried. Seeing this scene at this moment, he also looked like he had seen a ghost. If there are still eggs, Chuangzhen probably wants to try it himself!

And Wenxu was also taken aback when he saw Chuangzhen's cooking. The cooking itself had nothing to do with it, apparently it looked like common hamburger meat...but where did the meat come from? Wen Xu remembered that there was not a single piece of meat left in the kitchen!

Just about to ask, Liu Maoxing asked, "Maria Wenxu, what kind of ramen do you like? Wide strips, thin strips, leek leaves or..."

Wen Xu intentionally put it to the test: "Old people! I want to eat dragon beard noodles!"

"No problem!" Liu Maoxing said straightforwardly.

And Wenxu looked at Chuangzhen again at this time, waiting for him to give an answer.

"Hey! It's this...canned mackerel!" Soma laughed.

"Canned mackerel?" Wen Xu asked in surprise.

"That's right, eggs, minced onion, and bread crumbs are mixed together to make a coating, wrapped in water and dried mackerel, salt and pepper are added, and then fried in a pan, served with canning liquid, citrus vinaigrette It’s thickened with potato flour! Let’s name it ‘Xinghei Liusushi Mackerel Burger Meat Set’!” Soma obviously just came up with the name.

"How is it possible... Canned fish must be so fishy that it's hard to eat if it's fried in oil!" Wen Xu questioned before eating.

But right after the entrance, Wen Xu's complexion changed...

"This, this kind of fatness, even if you tell me that it is real meat, I will not doubt it! In addition, it is fried to the right degree of fire until it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside... and it is served with this bowl of seemingly ordinary egg drop soup ...Boy, how did you make this? There should be no raw materials to make broth!" Wen Xu asked in confusion.

"It's this! The only ingredients I have on hand!" Xingping took out the snack "dried squid" that he always carries with him.

As a dry product, the delicious taste of the squid feet is soaked in water by Xinghei, and then made into a seafood broth with some simple ingredients.

The mackerel hamburger meat and the squid-based egg drop soup made Wenxu feel like he was in the ocean.

Wen Xu seemed to be intoxicated by it, and he couldn't see the doubts at the beginning, but he kept chopsticks one after another...

It even made her involuntarily recall her youthful years, and almost "molested" Xingping Chuangzhen in a strange fantasy.

At this time, Liu Maoxing's noodles were cooked, and seeing Wen Xu's appearance, he knew that Chuangzhen must have passed the test!

Sure enough, after Wenxu came back to his senses, he handed the key to Chuangzhen: "Hey, this is the key to 303, you can live there!"

After Chuangzhen took the key and said "the hospitality is not good", he didn't intend to leave at all, but stayed in the kitchen even more excitedly.

"kindness?"

"Grandma Wenxu, after that is Ah Xing's cooking! Come on, let's compare!" Chuangzhen obviously still remembers this incident.

"There is really no way to take you young people..."

With the success of Chuangzhen's cooking, Wen Xu became more interested in Liu Maoxing's cooking.

Then... a bowl of noodles in clear soup was placed in front of Wenxu!

The ingredients have been strained out, and it looks like instant noodles without seasoning packets... Except for the noodles, which look like a faint yellow dragon beard noodles, there is no bright spot.

Wen Xu couldn't help but turn dark: "Stinky boy! Didn't I say that if you underestimate me, just wait for me to sleep in the wild for a year! Do you really think that I have arrived, and a bowl of clear soup noodles at night is enough Are you old?"

"Eh? Of course, I didn't underestimate Wenxu Maria. This is not clear soup noodles, but... Guoshi Wushuang's alkali water noodles!" Liu Maoxing said as a matter of course.

"Guoshi Wushuang? Do you think you can deny the fact that this is a clear soup noodle by giving it a bluffing name? And it must be extremely... um?"

As Wen Xu said, he picked up a strand of dragon beard noodles with chopsticks, but through the chopsticks, Wen Xu instantly felt something was wrong!

"This side..."

It seems to have a good feeling of abnormal elasticity!

Wen Xu took a sip in disbelief, but instantly revealed a shocked expression...

"Ming, obviously it is the thinnest dragon beard noodles, and there is no water... how is it possible..." Wen Xu felt that the dragon beard noodles, which were as thick as shrimp whiskers, bounced when they were bitten off. Hit it in the teeth!

"How did you achieve such a strong taste? Wait, is it the baking soda from before?" Wen Xu asked suspiciously.

"In Gansu, the land of China, there is a place called Lanzhou, where the ramen is very famous...Different from Japanese-style ramen that focuses on soup and side dishes, Chinese ramen focuses more on the development of the noodles themselves, and the characteristics of Lanzhou ramen , is to add alkaline water to the noodles!" Liu Maoxing said leisurely.

"Alkaline water?"

"That's right, the main component of alkaline water is sodium carbonate, while the main component of baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. If you take the clear liquid after heating, the composition is similar to that of alkaline water... If you have a good amount, you can use it for emergency." Liu Maoxing said.

Wen Xu was secretly shocked. In this way, although it can produce a clear liquid that is "similar" to alkaline water, it is only "similar" after all, and the concentration is uncontrollable... In this case, I just dipped a little and tasted it. Taste, can you control it perfectly?

At this time, Chuangzhen also went to fill up some leftover Longxu noodles. After tasting, he heard what Liu Maoxing said, and said the same: "No, the function of alkaline water should only make the noodles more smooth and firm, and not make the noodles without water. The noodles are more pulling, and the taste is so good..."
