Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"The word'Fu' is wrapped in crushed sesame flakes made from sucrose and jelly and mixed with peeled sesame seeds... Sesame flakes are a famous snack in the Sichuan Sichuan area with a long history, and I also tasted them The taste of condensed milk and vanilla powder has further balanced the sweetness. It should be an improvement to the original formula, right? It becomes more suitable for the tomato and peach kernel powder wrapped on the outside. The slightly sour, slightly bitter coat makes it more set off The sweetness of sesame flakes..."

"The word'Lu' contains crisp pieces of peanuts and bananas. Unlike sesame slices, its prototype'banana peanut butter toast' is a common western dessert. It can also be vaguely in the flavor of peanut butter, and feel unique to toast. For the fermented grains, toast should be used in the baking, but it is not put in the mooncakes. To increase the sweetness, maltose is also added?"

"The crumbs in'Shou' are prototyped as'Coconut Chocolate Almond Biscuits', a classic biscuit originally produced in Italy. Although they have not been made into biscuit now, they have also used the secondary baking technique of Italian biscuit! Served with toasted shredded coconut and included in the peach kernel powder together with the fragrant honey..."

"The word'Hi' is a European-style truffle chocolate originating from France. It is wrapped in walnut pieces, and in order to maintain the characteristics of truffle chocolate, there are scattered chocolate truffle pieces inside!"

The four judges spoke openly about the origin of the four fillings, and in a blink of an eye the moon cakes in their hands were all eaten.

When the judges tasted the mooncakes, they could not help but imagine that they were wearing red bellybands with the words "Fu", "Lu", "Shou" and "Happy", like four Fuwas, for the thousands of families who are reuniting. Send me a moon cake...

And Senzaemon, who was reminiscing about the "shadow leather", seemed to feel the call of the moon from it, and he appeared in his mind wearing gorgeous palace clothes and neon clothes, running towards the moon, unconsciously Made the "I want to fly" pose...

After the commander came back to his senses, he was not at all embarrassed while putting on his clothes and tidying his hair and beards, and said, "No, the most unique thing in this mooncake is the mooncake skin outside of the filling. on!"

"Yes, it is the mooncake skin that controls the fillings and makes them into a whole. This is the effect of sweet potato flour? But how can the transparency be so high?"

"Moreover, after baking, there is a unique softness, and the sweetness of sweet potatoes is also faintly revealed. Even without the fillings inside, only the transparent mooncake skin is enough to be evocative..."

"In recent years, moon cakes with transparent crystal skins do exist, but they use chemically treated modified starch as the raw material. The taste is too glutinous and only has an aesthetic effect, especially with nut fillings. It’s totally unmatched. It’s completely different from the transparent skin made by only relying on sweet potato flour and flour! Even the transparency is inferior."

"indeed so,Liu Subaru, how did you do it?"

Facing the doubts of the judges, Liu Subaru just said: "It's very simple. Just pay attention to the strength and proportion of the face, as well as the feeling of stretching and thinning."

The other four judges were all tangled, apparently thinking that Liu Subaru's statement was entirely excuse.

But at this time Senzaemon said, "It is true. I once saw a similar technique in the hands of a noodle master."

"Difficult, is that the master?" Anxi exclaimed.

Machang Love seemed to remember something suddenly: "That one? Is...one of the two veterans of the Dragon Chef Alliance?"

On the contrary, Saitama and Ryuji on the partner side were puzzled: "What two veterans? Isn't the highest level of the Dragon Chef Alliance the representative of the 27 three-star Chinese restaurants?"

Senzaemon interrupted, "Okay, let's make a judgment!"

Liu Subaru heard some meaning from it. It seems that the "Master of Solution" also has a high status in the Dragon Chef Alliance, but many people who are not at the core of the cooking world do not know him.

At the same time, it can also be seen that there is also a veteran with the same status as "Master Jie" in the Dragon Chef Alliance!

As for the results of the competition, it is not important anymore...

Just when the judges were immersed in the "special five-core moon cake", Liu Maoxing handed the sixth moon cake to Takumi.

Even without judging, Takumi knew he had lost!

There is a fundamental gap between my own lemon snow cake and Liu Maoxing's special five-core mooncake.

"Eight into the fourth game, the winner, Liu Subaru!" The commander wrote Liu Subaru's name on the huge scroll.

"Yes, although Takumi's'Lemon Snow Tibetan Cake' is also very classic, it really is still a'special five-ren' mooncake, which left me even more impressive!"

"It's not just an impression. After eating, I now want to go home and spend the holidays with my family..."

"It's true that the Mid-Autumn Festival is not a few days away. I don't know if I can order some moon cakes from Liu Subaru afterwards. I don't have any projects behind me as a judge. It shouldn't be considered a bribe?"

"Speaking of this, I too..."

Several judges were already discussing, and later asked Liu Subaru to order a batch of "special five-ren mooncakes".

And Liu Subaru said to Tacomi who was looking up 45 degrees: "Sorry, you want to find truth and love each other, and you can only wait for the next time."

"Your truffle chocolate and walnut chopped...seems to be very suitable for my'lemon snow cake'!" Tacmi exclaimed.

"The sweetness of truffle chocolate is too heavy? Doesn't it cover the taste of the snow layer?"

"No, just add your tomato and peach kernel powder!" Takumi said.

Then he changed his tone and said: "Although I lost this time, don't think that I can always be above me. Next time... next time I will use more perfect cooking to defeat you!"

"...I think from the degree of difficulty, you should still challenge Chuangzhen first." Liu Subaru said with a mocking smile.

At this time, the voice of Rei Kawashima in the broadcast did not lead everyone to exit in an orderly manner as usual, but announced: "So far, all the places for the semi-finals have been created! They are Xinghei Chuangzhen and Kurokiba Ryo. , Ye Shanliang, and Liu Subaru! Let us give warm applause to the four contestants who stand out in the year!"

At the same time, on the big screen, the tree diagram connection after the finalists has been played!

"On the big screen, you can see that in the semi-finals next week, Kopei Sojin will play against Liu Subaru in the morning, and Ye Shanliang will play against Kurokiba Ryo in the afternoon... At the same time, it will also be announced at this moment. The topic of the two battles is'Western Main Course'!" Kawashima Rei directly announced the topic of the semi-final.

The content of the two battles is the same, and both are the more general topics "Western Main Course".

The biggest difference between Western-style banquets represented by French and Italian dishes and Chinese-style banquets is that the dishes are served separately. From appetizers to desserts, each dish has its own status, while Chinese banquets are cold dishes. Hot dishes are served together and counted as a whole.

In a Western-style banquet, the main course is naturally the heaviest, whether it is actual or psychological. Take the representative French cuisine in Western cuisine as an example, usually the main course is meat or seafood. , And in a larger banquet, there will be one for each of the two, which counts as two main dishes.

Of course, the title of the semi-final is "Western-style main course", which definitely refers to a dish, fish and meat each will definitely not add points!

It is also because of the difference between the all-in-one banquet of Chinese food and the independent banquet of Western dishes such as French and Italian dishes. Chinese and Western dishes have different requirements for main dishes.

If you talk about the main course of Chinese food, it can also be understood as the "big dish" in a banquet, usually seafood or meat, but most of the main dishes of Chinese food are not suitable for western food...

Such as Dongpo meat, sweet and sour carp, snow winter roasted pheasant, salted duck, etc. These "big dishes" in Chinese cuisine, let people eat this dish alone, and then change one after eating. Just think about it A bit tired.

Because the "main dish" in Chinese cuisine is also part of the banquet, it must be paired with cold dishes, soups, vegetable snacks, etc. to show its charm.

Of course, it's just "most" of the main dishes of Chinese banquets. If they are taken out alone, they are too "dominant". On the contrary, they are too easy to break, and some have the same effect as the western main dishes. In fact, they are the same...

After Liu Subaru heard this topic, he first focused on the choice of general direction.

One is to choose Western dishes and improve them with Chinese cooking techniques. The "Super One Star" culinary skills have already enabled Pleiades Liu to accumulate most of the massive recipes!

Another option is to choose a dish that can take the position of the Western-style main course in the one-time recipes of "Zhonghua Yifan", and then use appropriate Western food techniques to improve processing...

The former is easier to deduct questions and has more choices, while the latter can play a higher level!

It also means that the former is more conservative, while the latter is just for high scores.

After all, if Pleiades Liu chooses the second method, he will definitely choose from the recipes above the super three stars.

Otherwise, Liu Subaru's own "Super One Star" cooking skills are top in the whole year, but not only did not stand out among the four semi-finals, but even a little "sag". With the help of various stunts, he could barely be regarded as the best. Go hand in hand.

However, Liu Subaru was unable to quietly plan the recipe in Pole Star Liao. Although the interviewers of various magazines in the school were violently expelled by Liu Subaru, some people came to the door in the afternoon just after deciding the general direction on the first day... …

"A Xing, there are guests looking for me downstairs!" Wen Xu shouted through the sound channel.

Because he has not yet reached the specific steps to practice cooking, Liu Subaru is in his room, not the kitchen.

Liu Subaru was wondering, wasn't it because Wen Xu was blasting away with a broom to find himself at this time?a……

After going downstairs, I found that it was none other than Erina Nagiri!

Liu Subaru wanted to complain about Wenxu's behavior, which was like a black and evil force bowing his head, but saw Wenxu behind Erina, gestured a thumb to himself, and showed a hearty smile, as if his canine teeth would flash!

From this smile, Liu Subaru seemed to see the damaging friend who was encouraging him to pursue the goddess... (To be continued.)
