Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Your question, think about it next to you! Then it's Zhuoyuan... When I first heard the decision of the elders, I was also shocked. ┡Fiction ㄟΩ can't think of those old stubbornness, it will let you Going to Yuanyue College, I obviously wanted Brother Zhao family ten years ago...Tsk, if that's the case, why should outsiders represent..."

"Cough cough cough! Uncle Lou San, you always have something to say directly!" Liu Subaruyuan interrupted Lou San, and at the same time he glanced at Liu Subaru.

Now he was obviously thinking about his own business and did not notice the conversation between the two...

"Well, how should I put it... Although you are currently the first person in the Pleiades, but this is also due to the small number of Pleiades, even if you are only a few people, this is also from your grandfather, you This one has been the result of early marriage and early childbirth..."

"Uncle Lou, I know you are good at fighting, but can you say something important!" Liu Maoyuan interrupted helplessly.

"Hahaha, don't mind! I don't mean anything else, except that if you go directly to Yuanyue, the chances of being dropped out of school within one month are very high." Lou San said with a smile.

No, what you said is what makes me mind the most!After Liu Maoyuan reconfirmed in his heart that his uncle is capable of fighting, he calmed down.

"Hey, in fact, I am not targeting either of you, just want to say... your problem is very serious!" Lou Sanyi said solemnly.

Seeing that no one was responding to him, Lou San continued: "As for the Pleiades, I think in the next month, I should go to the'Yangquan Hotel' to study, and study in a French restaurant for half a month and a Southeast Asian restaurant for a week. , Japanese restaurant study for a week, and then follow me for a while...

After all, it has only been more than a month. It is impossible to master all the major cuisines in the world. Even if you have a good foundation in Chinese cuisine, it is impossible, but as long as you have a targeted grasp of the principles and core concepts of these cuisines, plus Your Chinese food level, I believe that it is not a problem to deal with the daily courses of Yuanyue College."

It is generally believed that the so-called "Western food" is the originator of Italian cuisine. Even French cuisine is born out of Italian cuisine. However, French cuisine has long since grown out of blue and can be regarded as a representative of "Western food" in all aspects.

It is impossible for Liu Subaru Garden to master all the branch cuisines in more than a month, so Liu Lousan chose the more representative French cuisine and Southeast Asian cuisine.

Because the former is the most unfamiliar to Liu Subaru Garden, so I set aside half a month's time, and Southeast Asian cuisine has similarities with Chinese cuisine in some places, so Liu Lousan only gave her one week...

The reason for putting it in a Japanese restaurant in the last week is even simpler. In terms of kinship, this is the closest to Chinese cuisine, but Yuanyue is located in an island country. It is better to learn more!

It can be seen that Liu Lousan still knows Yuanyue very well, and at the same time, the training plan set by Liu Subaru Garden is also very targeted.

Finally, he will give special guidance to Liu Maoyuan for a period of time.

Although it is a pity that Liu Maoyuan cannot study in the restaurant of "Yangquan Restaurant", he also understands Liu Lousan's intention...

As the largest three-star restaurant and a mecca for Chinese cuisine, "Yangquan Restaurant" has always maintained the tradition of bringing forth new ideas and adapting to the changes of the times. The various signature dishes on the menu are basically "a great fusion of world cuisine". The shadow of is in it...

But in the final analysis, it is still a restaurant of Chinese cuisine. If Liu Subaru's study here is obviously different from his own intentions!

And the "Yangquan Hotel" not far from the "Yangquan Restaurant" is the same as Yuanyue Resort, and restaurants of the world's major cuisines exist in it.

"Then how should I master my'marrow'?" Liu Subaru asked at this moment.

"Well... you also come to the'Yangquan Hotel' first, let me first identify what level your sword skills and fire conditions have reached. These two essences are simpler than the essence of spices! After all, you..." Liu Lou Three said.

"After all, my aptitude is dull, so I don't need to emphasize it anymore!" Liu Subaru said with a blank eye.

"No, in fact, I think it is an insult to say this. It is impossible for a normal person to reach your current skills without any signs of the essence... Hey, don't go! Do you know how to get to the Yangquan Hotel? ?"

Liu Subaru is now extremely convinced that this guy must be quite capable of fighting!

But I don’t know that Liu Lousan is also wondering: "It’s really strange. Even if it’s a pig, there should be a miracle sign now... If he really doesn’t have any aptitude, then his skills... Oh, yes. , The current judgment of the clan elders is “the ancestor’s induction of power”?

Give it a try!I am also very curious, if he has mastered the essence now, how strong the three basic skills will be!"

Because Liu Lousan didn't know the prophecy, he didn't believe in what the elders said very much...

"By the way, I think you won two regional cooking contest championships, both of which are related to noodles? How about, the fourth kind of essence is ready to understand the essence of noodles?" Liu Lousan asked Liu Maoxing on the road Tao.

"There are more than three kinds of'Spirits'?" Liu Subaru said questioningly.

"...You really don't know anything! Knife skill, heat, and spices are the three most basic essences! They are also the basis for becoming a'lin-level' chef. In addition, at least you have to Only after mastering a complete "marrow" can you have a chance to become a "dragon-level" chef!" Liu Lousan said.

"The complete essence?"

"Yes, apart from the three basic essences, there are few other'marrows' that can be directly understood. For example, the'noodle essence', which includes the'wake-up essence','face god' There are many kinds of marrow, extended marrow, etc. They usually comprehend the three basic marrows first, then comprehend these fragment-level marrows, and finally understand the complete marrow." Liu Lousan said.

Liu Subaru listened attentively, knowing that this was the direction of the culinary exhibition after "Lin Rank" that he had never contacted!

In fact, Liu Subaru suspects that the people he knows, such as Shiroichiro, Dojima Gin, and Naginaki Thistle, should already be "Lin-level", but before, his cooking skills were at the Tiger-level, and they naturally wouldn't agree I said this myself, as for the more familiar one, even Kojiro Shinomiya is only a tiger...

"Then how old are you to comprehend a spirit?" Liu Subaru asked deliberately.

He really didn't believe that Liu Lou Sanhui was a "dragon-level" chef. He wanted to stimulate him. Who knows...

"In addition to the three basic spirits, I have understood the complete'sea-flavored spirit', and the others...just so so!" Liu Lousan said in a humble tone of mine.

"You have reached Chef Dragon?" Liu Subaru said in surprise.

"Of course not! I didn't say... to understand a complete'marrow', and then'have a chance' to become a dragon chef. Do you know what'have a chance'?"

Even though he said that, Liu Subaru probably estimated that Liu Lousan should be relatively strong among the "Lin-level" chefs.

Liu Lousan took Liu Subaru Star and Liu Subaru Garden through a small garden only open to guests, and came to the "Yangquan Hotel", or "Yangquan Indoor Resort"!

First, I arranged for Liu Maoyuan to report to the French restaurant on the 12th floor from tomorrow. Liu Lousan also entrusted the chef of this restaurant to "take care of" Liu Maoyuan for half a month.

Of course, this "care" means to let the other party teach Liu Subaru Garden more knowledge of French cuisine in this half month, not to make her life easier!

As for today, Liu Lousan will first test how well the two people are.

After all, he hasn't seen Pleiades Liu, a junior, for a long time, and Pleiades Liu has only seen it during the broadcast.

Leading the two to a small empty kitchen, it was obviously not in operation. The whole kitchen was empty, with only two young chefs who looked like they were in their early twenties.

The same white chef's uniform is worn, but there is no scarf that symbolizes the level. The kitchen is equipped with all kinds of advanced equipment. Although it is not as complete as the research institute of Yuanyue International, it is compared with the hotel kitchen of the same size. It is also very modern!

This also shows that Liu's "conservative" psychology... is not to be conservative for the sake of being conservative, but to believe that the way of "respecting the ancient" can more spawn a truly powerful cook!

After ensuring that the chef will not be affected by the new, foreign cooking skills, and can be "independent", he is also willing to expose the tribesmen to more cooking skills to enhance their strength.

And it’s not blindly arrogant, it’s just that I care too much about "food feeling", "cooking heart" and so on, so I don’t want to let the people come into contact with other cuisines too early...

In fact, this is mainly due to the overall disadvantage in the cultivation of middle and high-level chefs.

For low-level chefs, there is nothing wrong with specializing in one, but for top chefs, after mastering the "cooking mind" and then contacting different cuisines, it can be regarded as the same goal, and it is not too inferior!

Like Liu Lousan, as the first person in the Lou character generation, he has a "Lin-level" chef, and has a relatively high level of strength in the "Lin-level"...

It can be regarded as the "Liu Family's Dojima Silver", which is not an exaggeration.

Of course, considering the age of the two, it is obvious that Dojima Gin is better!

"Master, after receiving your call, we came early, are they the two?" the thinner young chef looked at Liu Maoxing and Liu Maoyuan and said.

Liu Subaru stared at the two in doubt, wondering what Liu Lousan was going to do, and these two were actually Liu Lousan's disciples?

If you are a general "Yangquan Hotel" chef, even if you have received Lou San's guidance, you will at most call it Teacher Lou San, not a formal name like "Master"!

Moreover, it seems that the two of them don’t know Liu Subaru, they should not be from the Liu family...

"Hahaha, aren't you two usually satisfied with your sword skills and temperament? Today I will test you... Yes, they are the people who are going to study in the'Yangquan Hotel' during this period. I'm going to let you compete. Let's confirm your respective levels! I haven't tested you for a long time, I don't know if you are lazy," Liu Lousan said with a smile.

"Eh? Why are you competing suddenly?" Liu Subaru was a little caught off guard, but the other two looked flaming.

"Don't pay attention to these details... You can see the level better by the way of competition, isn't it? And you should eat the halberd often in Yuanyue Academy? This time it is just an ordinary competition, and there is no bet. Shiji is so nervous," Liu Lousan said.

After hearing this, Liu Subaru looked at two young chefs, one fat and one thin. He secretly speculated that Liu Lousan also wanted to take the opportunity to sharpen his two disciples.

"Uncle Lou, are these two senior brothers Zhao Ming and Zhao Liang?" Liu Subaru said.

Liu Subaru grinned upon hearing this...lighting, lighting?The names of these two brothers are pretty bright...

Of course, Liu Subaru also believes that these two people can be accepted as disciples by Liu Lousan. Apart from their bright names, there must be other outstanding points.

And Liu Lousan was very caring about the two disciples. Even when he and his native Liu Subaru Court came, Lou San did not forget to take the opportunity to sharpen his two disciples.

"Yes, they are five or six years older than Ah Xing, who won two regional cooking contests, but in terms of culinary skills... Hey, this time I also wanted to let them gain more knowledge."

Pleiades Liu couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, secretly saying that such obvious aggressive means, coupled with Liu Lousan's exaggerated acting skills, can only be heard by an idiot, right?

However, it immediately appeared that the Zhao family brothers looked at him and became eager, as if they wished to show off immediately...

Well, Liu Subaru suddenly felt that perhaps the reason why Liu Lousan asked them to be apprentices was because they were so fooled!

"Well! I would also like to compare with the two Senior Brothers Zhao!" Liu Maoyuan also looked a little bit wary.

"But if you compare the skill of the sword and the heat... Is it more than the prescribed recipe, or is it free to swing?" Liu Subaru asked.

"Don't worry, things will come right away," Liu Lousan said.

Taking advantage of this effort, Pleiades Liu also whispered to Liu Pleiades: "Are these two brothers famous? Or did you do your homework specially? By the way, don’t you have a lot of people in the Liu family... You still accept disciples with foreign surnames?"

"Of course I will accept it! No matter how many people in the Liu family, can they have more talents than those who admire the Liu family from the outside world? It's just that the people in the Liu family have to pass the test within the clan if they want to accept apprentices. can.

And if you want to accept direct disciples, you must go to the clan to report. Corresponding many disciples of the elders, actually grew up in Liu's ancestor house when they were young..." Liu Maoyuan said.

Liu Maoxing just remembered that even if the Liu family is a stubborn conservative, they are not blindly cherishing themselves. If the disciple’s temperament and life experience pass the test, he can be treated like Liu family’s own people...

Of course, being treated as if they were themselves is not necessarily a good thing!

"Wait, which means that Zhao Ming and Zhao Liang have passed the assessment of the ancestral house and become independent?"

Liu Maoxing looked at Zhao Ming and Zhao Liang curiously, and found that the two were standing opposite each other, with four hands stacked on top of each other, and shouted "Come on! Come on!" He seemed to be cheering himself up, as if he was beaten... …

If the two of them really passed the independent assessment of the ancestral house in their early twenties, it means that their talents are about the same as that of Liu Maoyuan?After all, Liu Lousan's assessment of Liu Subaru Court is that he can be independent at the age of twenty.

Tsk tsk, that's really not your usual stunner!Sure enough, the level of culinary talent has nothing to do with IQ...

"No, the two of them are different. Although they are the direct disciples of Uncle Lou San, the Liu family can open knowledge to ordinary people, and can also open to them, but they only went to the ancestral house when they were apprentices. once."

Liu Subaru's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked in a low voice, "Are they the bastards of Senior Lou San? Don't say it, the corner of the fat Zhao Liang's eyes really looks like Senior Lou San!"

"Don't talk nonsense! The two of them are exceptions because they were specifically mentioned to the clan elders when Uncle Lou San just won the title of'Lou San' ten years ago..."

"I feel more like it when you say that...cough cough, it's okay, you say it first."

"Uncle Lou San is the representative of the reformists in Lou's generation. He specifically applied to the elders, hoping to use his own methods to teach the two disciples to see results...

Because Uncle Lou San had already won the first person in Lou's generation at that time, and there was also the support of Kuishan clan elders, and other clan elders had just been stimulated by the terrible end of the "God Cooking Showdown" ten years ago. After all, Zhao Ming Zhao Liang and the two brothers are not members of the Liu family, so the clan elders are relieved!

Don't underestimate them, even if they are compared to Yuanyue's graduates, I am afraid they will not be inferior!And they are different from Yuanyue's students... It should be regarded as ordinary Liu family members and Yuanyue students.They have been exposed to a lot of knowledge of various cuisines since they were young, and they also attach great importance to the basics."Liu Maoyuan said.

Liu Subaru also paid more attention to the two brothers Zhao Ming and Zhao Liang. Now these two guys who seemed to have a tendon in their minds accidentally leaked into their hearts and blocked their hearts, they were still cheering each other...

"Brother! No matter what the champion or not, we must not be ashamed of Master, know?"

"Of course! Brother! Mom is still waiting for us to become the chef and go back!"

"That's right, how hard it was for my mother to bring us up by herself. Fortunately, the master suddenly appeared and accepted us as disciples, and she often visited our mother!"

"Well, Master is such a good person!"

After hearing this, Liu Subaru was very moved. After that, he gave Liu Lousan a weird look, and then said to Liu Subaruyuan: "Do you think your grandmother and uncle knows about this?"

"..."

Fortunately, before Liu Subaru continued the gossip, a hotel waiter pushed in a dining car.

"Manager, everything you want comes here, afterwards..."

"Put it here, you go and do your job," Liu Lousan said.

After that, Liu Lousan also took out the things on the top layer of the dining car. They were four white and tender square tofu pieces the size of a fist!

I saw Liu Lousan put the four pieces of tofu on a plate and put them on the four cooking tables...

"Huh? Is this a test of knife skills? Is it carved? Or do you want to make'chrysanthemum tofu'?" Liu Subaru guessed.

"Neither! Since it's a competition, naturally we have to use some methods that can easily tell the winner..."

As Liu Lousan said, he took four more chopsticks and strolled around on the cooking table in front of the four of them, and saw that each chopstick had a round head downward, piercing it into the center of the tofu vertically, keeping it upright. .

When the four people were puzzled, Liu Lousan said: "I also have an electronic scale with an accuracy of o.ooo 1 gram. What you have to do is to keep your chopsticks upright, cut the tofu as much as possible, and finally load it. Said that whoever is the lightest will naturally win...Of course, you should not touch the chopsticks with your hands or make the chopsticks fall."

"This way of comparison is indeed more intuitive than carving. It is clear at a glance who is lighter and who is heavier." Liu Subaru nodded when he heard the words, and at the same time bent over and raised his head, carefully observed tofu and chopsticks...

This chopstick is the most traditional wooden chopsticks. The thin head is cut into a circle and the tail is cut into a square. It symbolizes the "round sky" in the traditional Chinese world view. At this time, the round head is pierced into the middle of the tofu, and it looks like It has completely penetrated the tofu and stuck it on the plate below!

Although it was a test of sword skills, Liu Maoxing felt that this also tested the chef's observation and judgment. He couldn't help but glanced at Zhao Ming and Zhao Liang, and found that the two of them did not recklessly start, and are also watching carefully... (unfinished) to be continued.)
