Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Chapter 273 Fried Noodles? (2 in 1)

"... cooking begins!"

With the sound of cooking, Liu Subaru let out a long sigh of relief, although it is conceivable that after the game, he has to "explain" again.

Liu Subaru feels that his "interpretation" skills should be about to be MAX, as if every once in a while, he will face some difficult to explain situations!

Finally, after the game started, apart from the "only" few dangerous gazes and a few more glances at himself, Liu Subaru could no longer feel the gazes of other players, and the emcee of the Yu Jie did not say anything provocative.

What caught Liu Subaru’s most attention was that the last person who withdrew his gaze was Shiratori Changpu... Seeing her "as expected" in her eyes, she knew that this incident must have been connected with the incident of late-night accusation as a judgment. Evidence of your own character!

After the start of the competition, the emcee of the royal sister also began to introduce to the audience that of the ten judges, Liu Subaru only knew three of them, including Dojima Gin, and the other two gourmets among the judges during the preliminaries!

Five of them are time-honored brands on Ramen Street No. 1. The shortest one is ten years, and it has not been squeezed out from Ramen Street No. 1. The longest is from a hundred years ago, when Ramen Street No. 1 was just organized, forming a challenge every three years. It’s a super time-honored brand right there!

Since they can serve as judges, it naturally means that there are no juniors in their ramen restaurants to participate in the competition.

After all, not all stores will have heirs of the right age every year, and they don’t need to "hire people" to represent the competition...

The rules of the finals are similar to those of the "Hokkaido Seafood Contest", with a scoring system of 10 judges and 10 points each.

Just now when everyone was onlookers, Liu Maoxing also experienced some "place py" feelings. Of course, Liu Maoxing did not want to go back and exchange thoughts with Si Yingshi!

The reason for this feeling is probably related to the layout of Liu Subaru's current cooking table...

Now Liu Subaru's cooking table is very Si Yingshi's style, that is, surrounded by four glass walls, a large area is circled, and it is already close to the border of other chefs around.

And on the glass wall, each has a crossbar that seems to hang clothes.

Of course, Liu Subaru did not mean to change clothes in public, but from under the cooking table, he directly took out the flour and started to use "White Dragon Snake Zhuan Lian" to make noodles...

Through the four glass walls, the audience can directly see Liu Subaru's superb mixing technique.

The noodle was actually rolled up by the iron rod in the rotation, as if in a transparent cage, closed with a white dragon!

After the "White Dragon Snake training", the quality of the face was just right, Liu Subaru divided the huge dough into many small pieces, each of which was only a small ball. Some people even doubted whether Liu Subaru was not good at pulling. Noodles, so they are divided into these small groups... But in that case, why not use a noodle press?

Later, everyone discovered that Liu Subaru actually started to shake the small dough around, and within a single shake, a "ramen" with uniform thickness and moderate length was formed.

And it happened that the middle section was placed on those "beams". Now the ramen made by Pleiades Liu is thinner than ordinary ramen, but it is far from the level of dragon beard noodles.

Gradually, ramen noodles have spread all over the four glass walls, and I don’t know if it’s because of the uneven surface quality. The colors of these ramen noodles seem to be slightly different.

Liu Subaru was in it, and he looked fascinating, as if he had drawn a translucent curtain in a transparent bathroom in a small hotel...

It is precisely because of this that the audience's attention to him has also decreased. After all, after blocking it, they can't see what is happening. Although there is a camera from above that is connected to the broadcast screen, the photographer is obviously more Pay attention to those real seed players.

After the audience watched Liu Subaru's "lively", they also turned to the representatives of the ramen restaurant they supported at the beginning...

So also missed,

If someone sees through the ramen curtain at this time, you will see Liu Subaru is inside, pick up one end of a ramen, and then hold a normal-sized blade and a small carving knife, and pull it along the end of the ramen. I came out and used the two knives straight, as if my arm...no, it was an extension of the fingers!

It’s so dexterous and meticulous that you can use two knives to "pour the ramen" from all around to the point where it lies flat in the middle of the cooking table...

And if someone is more careful and has "super vision" vision, they will find that the surface of each ramen laid flat is no longer as smooth as the beginning, but has more carvings... And keep repeating this process.

However, in the face of this huge project, Pleiades Liu apparently had no time to do anything else for a while, and he appeared to be unknown among the nearly 300 players.

The strongest eyes on the field at this time are the four super-seeded players including Shiratori Changpu!

Except for Shiratori Ayame from the island’s only star-rated ramen shop, the other three are representatives of local ramen restaurants in Sapporo.

Although they are young, in the hearts of the audience, they are no different from the masters of ramen!

At this time, they each prepared the signature noodles of their own ramen restaurant, and, by coincidence, the four ramen were the four most basic Japanese ramen!

Shiratori Ayame makes the signature "soy sauce ramen" of "Hitori Ramen", and the secrets of the other three's own ramen shops are "Sio Ramen", the signature brand of "Aso Ramen", and "Miso" the signature brand of Fujie Ramen. Ramen and Negishi Ramen's signature "tonk bone ramen".

Just like the consensus of many ramen masters... Innovation is a must, but the most popular ones will always stand the test of time!

Although their "soy sauce ramen" and "sho-flavored ramen" sound like simple and unpretentious ramen, their tastes must be constantly adjusted every year, and they sometimes launch some weird ramen, but most of them are curious ramen. , The market will not exceed three months, just to try new things for the old customers...

They will not focus on the development of new ramen, but on the existing formula!

In the ramen world, the most time-honored ramen is naturally the four kings of "soy sauce ramen", "salt ramen", "miso ramen" and "tonkotsu ramen".

In addition to these four people, even Erina's popularity is still far behind them, and is considered to be in the second echelon!

Of course, this is only the first half of the journey...

At this time, the audience still arranged their attention according to their inherent impressions. After all, they do not think that individual contestants can compare with the accumulation of old stores!

In the second half of the journey, the audience's attention gradually began to pay attention to the students of Yuanyue Academy...

Well, yes, it was not Erina, not Liu Subaru, or wearing a turban that made the first shot of "snatching the spotlight". Now Kurokiba Ryo, who has a strong sense of existence, is Nao Sadazuka!

This "witch in front of the pot" is always able to grab everyone's attention by virtue of a completely different style of painting from those around her.

After all, among a group of ramen teenagers who are "struggling", a "witch" who is boiling the product of dark magic suddenly appears, and of course it will be noticed at a glance!

"Hmm! What is that dark thing?"

"I don't know... it is so far away, and it is not a closed space. You can smell the smell. If it is in a closed place, I am afraid it can be sterilized, right?"

"Wait! What is the kind of dried fish she used? Why doesn't it seem to be fermented in three days?"

"No, I saw it before. It was taken out of the can... According to the rules, it should be a commercial can. It is not a secret formula, so it will not be banned..."

"Difficult, is it in the legend..."

"Yes! It's canned herring!"

The sound of canned herring, canned herring... gradually spread among the audience.

The ramen fans who have watched many games for a while also showed shocked applications.

It was as if in the world of cultivating immortals, in a great sect competition, an unknown disciple took out a high-grade magic weapon...Ah, it was a high-grade magic weapon!

"She, is she crazy? Is that kind of food that can be controlled by normal cooking methods?"

"Then can't count the ingredients at all? It will only make the taste worse..."

“I’ve heard that some well-known cooks in Northern Europe develop dishes that allow people to enjoy canned herring as ingredients indoors without affecting the cooking skills of the diners in the room... But in their cooking methods, absolutely Does not include ramen noodles that require hot soup!"

"Ah! Look, she poured the black hot soup on the marinated herring..."

The smell that burst out instantly baptized the audience over and over again!

Canned herring, a canned food that is banned for consumption in residential areas and public places in Sweden, where it originated, and most countries. Even in countries without such regulations, if it is opened in densely populated areas, it may be labeled " The danger of drinking tea in the name of "violating public security management"...

This ban has also caused great controversy. For example, in the early days of the "Great Fusion of Cuisine", many regions were exposed to "canned herring" for the first time. For the ban in some countries, many chefs and gourmets could not accept it!

Because in their opinion, since it is a product of cooking, it must be respected. How can it be forcibly specified where it is eaten?

For this reason, many "jokes" were made at the beginning, such as the protesters eating "canned herring" in public in their own country, and the famous "canned herring challenge" at that time...

As a result of the protests, more and more countries have labelled canned herring as restricted places...

However, in modern times, with the birth of many new cooking techniques, canned herring gradually has a tendency to be "surrendered". Some Nordic restaurants even provide special canned herring, which can be used without affecting others and without having to go to the wild. Enjoy!

But those methods are mostly "cold food", like this kind of hot soup for canned herring, really rarely see...

Of course, Nao Sadazuka's cooking style is definitely not without influence on others!

The other players on the field couldn’t help but glared at Nao Sadazuka, but Sadazuka who entered the "witch mode" still had a weird smile on his face, stirring the soup awkwardly, and pouring a spoonful of the marinated herring from time to time. .

And now the one who is most affected is undoubtedly Ye Shanliang, who is looking depressed. For him, this kind of olfactory attack is definitely a "knife crit" in an unprepared state!

But it was not too difficult for him. After taking a deep breath with his mouth, he closed his eyes and put his hands around his nose, as if he was using his sense of smell "resolution" to shield this The influence of an abnormal smell on your olfactory judgment!

And the stench from Sadazuka did not "dominate" the arena for too long, and immediately a new "stink" came from Negishi...

At the beginning, this faint smell was completely concealed by the taste created by Zhen Tomb, but gradually, as the smell merged into the smell of ink and herring in Zhen Tomb, it seemed to change. The structure of this odor is the same, which makes people feel a faintly attractive aroma while telling themselves that it is a "foul odor" in the heart!

Ye Shanliang couldn't help but glanced at Negishi...

If it was only "helpless" when I looked at Nao Sadazuka before, then this time I was a little "fearful"!

Liu Subaru, who has a super-olfactory sense, also glanced at the representative player of Negishi Ramen at this time, and could not help but secretly said: These old store inheritors have solid basic skills and are not rigid in their brains, plus the secret formula, it is indeed not to be underestimated!

Negishi's ramen is the signature "tonkotsu ramen", that is, the soup base is boiled with pork bones. Because it takes a long time to cook, the soup of the authentic pork bone ramen will have a faint “tonky bone smell”. But it is not as obvious as habitual ingredients and smelly ingredients.

And Negishi uses this faintly smelly pork bone soup, which makes Nao Sadazuka's soup herring less impactful in terms of smell!

At this time, other elite students from Yuanyue gradually attracted the attention of the audience, which also brought pressure to other players...

"Wow! What a big piece of beef, look at this frost... Could it be A grade beef?"

"Too luxurious, isn't it? In a ramen restaurant, you rarely see such expensive ingredients..."

"Huh? What is the blond-haired foreign boy doing over there? Isn't it a language barrier? How did he prepare rice? It's totally wrong, right!"

"No, that should be rice-shaped pasta..."

There are many shapes of spaghetti, from the most familiar noodles, hollow pasta, spirals, small loops, to the unusual snowflakes, plum blossoms, bows, rugby shapes, etc... Among them, there are many "noodles" with very small particles. For example, rice-shaped pasta.

"Have you seen it? The orange-haired girl over there, don't look at her now, she seems to be quiet, I just saw her killing wild ducks on the spot!"

"What's the matter, it's the white-haired girl, even more weird... Looking at the equipment next to her cooking counter, is she going to be a ramen or a clone?"

"That one I want to see in a cooking magazine! It is Erina Nagiri’s younger sister and also the granddaughter of the'Great Demon King'. Although not as eye-catching as the sister who has the'God Tongue', she is also praised as being One of the leaders of the new generation of'molecular cuisine', and has won awards in many molecular cuisine competitions that do not limit age!"

"The red-haired player is also very strange. He doesn't seem to prepare the soup until now. Isn't he... he is not going to make'ramen'?"

"There is also the guy with the turban, who just cursed with the audience, tut... But looking at his cooking process, he is different from his hot personality. Although it looks like a big break, the handling of the ingredients is not They are all subtle! A whole salmon, only the bones left after being shaved with a blade..."

"The Nagiri-san who has the'God Tongue' is making udon noodles?"

"It's not udon noodles. Udon noodles don't have such a smooth surface. It should be'rice noodles'!"

"Speaking of the one who won the'Hokkaido Seafood Pastry Contest', the ramen around now has gradually been taken down. Although he didn't see what he did before, but...now his performance seems to be unremarkable."

"Indeed, and his cooking table is so strange. In addition to the glass wall, what is the metal groove on the inside?"

"Who knows... Actually, I didn't even see what he was going to do, and he didn't prepare the broth?"

"Wait! He started using those grooves! He was... pouring oil into it?"

"He, does he want to..."

"Oh my God! What's the matter with these Yuanyue students? I have watched this competition almost every year for more than ten years, but the number of accidents is not as many as this year!"

I saw that Pleiades Liu was about to touch a one-meter-wide annular groove, which was ignited after being filled with oil. Suddenly, a flame of more than one meter high rose in the glass wall of Pleiades Liu!

The flame surrounds the inner circle of the glass wall, and the width is about 1.5 meters, which means that only a small part of the center where the Pleiades is located has not been directly burned by the flame...

Suddenly, a lot of players, audiences and judges around came over. This way of stealing the spotlight is definitely MAX level.

Did this guy finally realize his sinful behavior and decided to burn himself to thank the FFF group?

However, they immediately discovered that Liu Subaru obviously had no such consciousness, and many Yuanyue students seemed to have seen a similar scene...

That's right, also surrounded by the raging fire, Liu Subaru is standing in the center of the cooking table!

The only difference is that in the autumn trial finals, Liu Subaru used a ring of firewood, but now it is an oil fire.

But the same thing is that a group of staff with fire extinguishers were attracted, until it was determined that the fire was in Liu Subaru's expectations, this was only on standby!

The players next to him on all sides are more depressed. They finally understand that the glass wall that isolates them represents "deep love"!

If there was no such fireproof glass wall, the flames would have spread to their faces...

At this time, the cameraman immediately switched on the camera from top to bottom, and aimed at the position of Liu Subaru!

Now it doesn't matter who is optimistic about it. With such a big scene, the audience is obviously most interested in what Liu Subaru wants to do.

Surrounded by flames, Liu Maoxing brushed the laid noodles with oil. The ends of the noodles of the same length were gathered together, and then tied up with a rope. After holding the fireproof rope with one hand , The thick noodles of the thighs gathered together, shaken in place...

Seeing Liu Subaru's brushed face turning on the fire in circles, both the audience and the judges were talking, and even many players were attracted!

"This is... in'baked noodles'?"

"No, this way of adding oil and then heating...Although it is a bit strange, it should be closer to'fried noodles', right?"

"Cooked noodles... is really the most'laborious' fried noodles I have ever seen!" (.)
