The Counterfeit Little Master of the Halberd
Chapter 108: Traveling and Returning
Xi Jianrun didn’t have any insights, and he carefully explained to Liu Subaru and Chuangzhen, but naturally it was too late to explain all the knowledge about spices. He just summed up some introductory knowledge of the classification of spices in the spices.
Spices specifically refer to the classification of spices that contain pungent aromas. Speaking of "curry dishes", naturally one has to say spices.
According to Shiomi Jun’s simple classification, the most important three points of spices are "scent", "spicy" and "color." The "spicy" is not "spicy" in the narrow sense, and the strong fragrance can also be understood as "spicy" "A kind of.
European style curry, that is, Japanese curry, uses "strong aroma" instead of pure "spicy" to satisfy diners who can't eat spicy Indian curry.
As we all know, in the use of spices, the most difficult thing is to mix them. After all kinds of spices are mixed, there will be countless changes in color, aroma and taste. The more types of mixed use, the more exponential growth of these changes...
And Shiomi Jun also proposed that even if the spices are in the same proportion, whether each spice is fried in advance, the heating temperature, whether it is dry or fresh, etc., countless factors will also have an impact!
Ye Shanliang on one side also seemed to be provocative. He took Liu Subaru and Chuangzhen to the kitchen in a practical way, and showed them the same spice recipe, the different pre-processing methods for the spice and the different base materials that carry the spice. Different effects.
Liu Subaru also gradually understood the advantages and disadvantages of the "Spice Inequality". For the mixing and matching of spices, the "Spice Inequality" has an unparalleled calculation speed. With the "Super God's Tongue", even the spices that have not been seen can be immediately " Enter the data and perform simulation calculations.
But at the same time, regarding the influence of temperature, oil, and other factors on the taste of spices, the "spices inequality" is not very good at what Shiomi Jun said later.
In other words, it is very good at the physical mixing and the chemical changes between the spices. For the chemical changes of the spices due to external conditions, it is impossible to predict. The more such changes, the simulation operation The greater the error.
This is also the reason for the "spice inequality", which can only calculate spices. If it is other ingredients, considering the changes in raw and cooked heat, the error will exceed the horizon...
Therefore, the usual method of Green-eyed Tiger Mila is to add spices at the end after simulating the other party's cooking, so as to make the spices produce chemical changes as little as possible, and to achieve the purpose of improving the taste of the cooking.
But if it is a "curry cuisine" with spices as its soul, it is impossible for Liu Subaru to add spices to decorate at the end, and if he completely relies on the "spice inequality", huge errors will occur...
"Thank you for the hospitality and for the explanation...I think I know where I am weak in the use of spices. After that, other students in Pole Xingliao, these few days may also interrupt one or two and cause you trouble!" Liu Maoxing said.
Shiomi Jun is still very good at talking about things other than Shiroichiro, and nodded when he heard that: "Well, yes, for the sake of the'Pole Xingliao', I can teach you specifically, but only This week, I still have my own research to do afterwards."
Ye Shanliang looked at Liu Subaru and said: "Looking at your eyes, it seems that you have confidence to make up for your weakness?"
"Yes, you also work hard, be careful, after two months, you will be overtaken by me in the spices!" Liu Subaru said with a smile.
"My sense of smell is the same as your sense of taste. They are different from ordinary people. I have also discovered that you seem to be able to perceive odor molecules with your tongue? But you should know that the same odor molecules are perceived by smell and taste. The results are not the same!
Before the appearance and deliciousness of the cuisine, it is the first to be presented to the diners. The aroma is always...Only those who can truly control the aroma can stand at the top of the cooking world!"Ye Shanliang said confidently.
"I don't know if spice can make you stand at the top, but I first admit that spice is very important... But if you want to control spice, you need not only a good nose, but also a large number of different kinds of brains!" Liu Subaru said that he approached Ye Shanliang two steps, and the index finger of his left hand tapped his temple.
"Heh, are you confident in your own mind? But don't forget, you will not only face me then, Run will be with me, and our combination is invincible!" Ye Shanliang believes most is not himself , But a combination of myself and Run.
"Then see you then!" Liu Maoxing waved his hand.
"En? Listen to what you mean, won't you come again before school starts?" Ye Shanliang asked in confusion.
Although Liu Subaru is regarded by him as his biggest competitor, Ye Shanliang doesn't mind other people knowing more about the spices, after all, this topic is already extremely beneficial to him.
"Yes, I plan to go to Northern Europe, and I will probably come back before the start of school! Molecular gastronomy there is very interesting, and there are specialties in the art. From them, it should be more intuitive to see that each spice has external conditions. Let's follow the law of self-reaction!" Liu Subaru said.
Indeed, although Xi Jianjun focuses on the research of spices, his research focuses mainly on the cultivation, preservation, and mixed use of spices.
In contrast, although the New Institute of Cooking Studies in Denmark mainly studies molecular cuisine, the chemical reactions that occur in spices are naturally also in its research category.
"Molecular gastronomy? Good luck, then!"
After Liu Subaru returned to Jixingliao, he immediately booked a time with Alice. On the second day of the official holiday, he got on the plane to Denmark...
In the New Institute of Culinary Science in Denmark, Liu Subaru learned a lot of new things, which naturally also includes the records of chemical reactions of various spices, gradually enriching his own "spice inequality".
Originally, Liu Subaru wanted to stay in the Danish research institute for two months, and then went to Hokkaido with Alice and Kurokiba before the start of school to participate in the "dessert event", but after a month, something happened. Ling Alice’s father, chased and killed him eight streets with a knife!
Therefore, I had to leave Denmark one month in advance. Before I left, I agreed with Alice on the date of meeting in Hokkaido...
In a blink of an eye, the two-month summer vacation of Yuanyue Academy is over. Alice is wearing a big straw hat, and together with Kurokichang, they are waiting for someone at the entrance of the hotel they stayed in when they participated in the "Seafood Pastry Contest". Look like.
Before long, Liu Subaru also rushed over by taxi...
"Sorry, sorry, the plane was late." Liu Subaru said embarrassedly.
"Hey, can't you come back a day earlier? And the lovely lady is waiting for you!" Alice cast her eyes.
"After all, the hotel is very expensive for one night. If I come back first, don't I have to pay for it myself?" Liu Maoxing looked super smart.
Alice was about to complain, but suddenly remembered something, she looked at her phone again and said, "Wait, the news just now seems to say that the plane was delayed...Did you go to the United States?"
Alice originally thought that if Liu Subaru had not returned to Yuanyue this month, he should have gone home!
However, from the perspective of time, the plane Liu Subaru took should be from New York to Hokkaido...
"Well, I really wanted to go home and have a look, but suddenly remembered that there are other things to deal with, so I went to the United States." Liu Subaru did not explain what it was, and Alice did not ask much.
After a while, Liu Subaru couldn't help it, and asked Alice in a low voice, "That...Is the director Nagiri calm down?"
Alice's face flushed when she heard the words, and then her eyes flew wildly and said, "Ben, there was nothing wrong with it! Even I haven't said anything... You are too nervous!"
At this moment, Hei Muchang dazed in a sentence: "Well? The director didn't say that, when I asked you to see Ah Xing..."
"Shut up!" Alice stopped his words.
Seeing Alice's reaction, Liu Subaru hurriedly switched the subject away: "By the way, who are the top 50 dessert masters participating in this'dessert event'? How many kinds of desserts will appear in the event?"
"This is the brochure I received before, and it says... We had good luck at this event! Among the top ten dessert masters, three of them were present, and only one of the top ten masters came. The situation is mostly, sometimes bad luck, maybe even no top ten masters participated." Alice said expectantly, and handed a booklet to Liu Subaru.
"The total number is over a thousand? So many?" Liu Subaru was surprised.
"Yes, after all, there will be hundreds of dessert experts participating, and many pastry chefs offer more than one kind of dessert...How about? If you want to eat, it is best to plan first!" Alice said.
"Which one do you want to eat? No, it seems that you still don't know my style when I eat a buffet!"
Hearing what Liu Subaru said, Alice had a bad feeling in her heart...
Which one do you want to eat?Just kidding, Liu Subaru has finally improved his cooking skills by one star in the past two months, reaching the "Advanced Five Stars", and has been stuck here since then. He also hopes to rely on the "Dessert Festival" to break through to the special level!
And there are only 1,400 kinds of desserts in three days. In the three-day "dessert event", if you don't eat anything else, Liu Subaru thinks that he might still achieve his goal.
Although you can’t force the buffet to take away like in Yuanyue Hotel, "going through the back door", desserts are not like dishes, and each amount should be small...
Therefore, in this Hokkaido "dessert event", there is a legend of "big stomach king"...
