The Counterfeit Little Master of the Halberd
Chapter 296 Leo Lola: Let me try... (short)
"What is that? How small!"
"Indeed, this is probably one of the reasons why the three dishes are presented at the same time! The weight of this dish cannot be presented alone, right?"
Alice and Scarlett murmured in the audience, Liu Subaru did not know that he was despised in terms of "size"...
And Nakiri Zongwei said to his daughter at this time: "That should be... in Chinese, it's'Yuyun', right?"
"Yuyun?" Although Alice is Yuanyue's elite, the very "uncommon" part of this other cuisine is still very strange.
"Sometimes in Chinese cuisine, fish heads are also made into dishes called'fish clouds'... But there are also special indications, that is, there are two small pieces of almost colloidal fish on the fish head near the gills. These five The shares are all from the originally small'Yuyun', so it is no wonder that it is such a weight." Nagiri Zongwei said.
"There is still such a part in the fish head...is it delicious?" Alice wondered.
"Well, the taste is very smooth, and if it is cooked properly, many gourmets from the Dragon Chef Alliance love this thing." Nagiri Soe said.
It's no wonder that Alice has never heard of it. In Western cuisine, "head" ingredients are generally regarded as taboos, and fish heads are never put on the table...
Even in island countries that are heavily influenced by Chinese cuisine, most of the fish heads are used for decoration when they are served on the table, and they are not actually eaten. At most, they are like what Ye Shanliang did in the "autumn trial preliminaries". It is used to make soup. When you taste it, you only know that the collagen in it comes from fish heads, instead of eating whole fish heads...
However, it goes without saying that in Chinese cuisine, dry pot fish head, chopped pepper fish head, braised fish head... are all popular dishes, and "Yuyun" is the essence of fish head.
Although the five judges are also the best of their families, they are all from Chinese cuisine, and naturally they all recognized this thing.
"Huh? There are still vegetables underneath? This is vegetable heart...No, it's Shanghai green?" Tang Song picked up the long cucumber slices in the outer circle, and found that something was holding it inside. It's not just surrounded by cucumbers.
Shanghai Qing, in Guangzhou, it should be called Qingjiang Cai. The fried Qingjiang Cai at Yangquan Restaurant uses this kind of vegetable. It is also a kind of Chinese cabbage and rapeseed. The name is different in different places, but from Shanghai Longzhen Restaurant. Tang Song is naturally more accustomed to calling it "Shanghai Green".
"That's right, the soup inside is very rich!" Lei Yu also noticed that the reason why it is both surrounding and supporting is because there is thick soup in it.
The judges didn't hesitate anymore when they saw it, and directly put the fish cloud, cucumber slices, Qingjiang vegetables and the thick soup inside them into their mouths and chewed them!
The tender fish cloud, the crispy vegetables, and the hot soup...multiple taste spread.
However, whether it is Qingjiang cuisine, the elegant cucumber, or the thick corn soup, they can't cover the fish cloud as the protagonist!
The judges suddenly felt that a huge sea bream leaped out of their mouths!
The crimson corrective posture is like a fire...
Liu Subaru observed the "fish cloud" when he first thaw.
After all, it can be stored in the cold storage of the "Yangquan Hotel". Although the "sea bream" is no longer in the best taste period according to the "rigorous" standards, it is actually relatively fresh!
Although the meat quality is not in the "best taste period", Yuyun has not been affected too much. It is still white and tender, so Liu Subaru decided this last dish from the beginning.
At the same time, just as "Nageri Zongwei" said, Liu Subaru knew from the beginning that the last dish must not be served alone...
Although the tradition of "Shen Front Cooking Showdown" every year is to use the large red sea bream used in the confrontation between "Liu Subaru Star" and Rennes more than a hundred years ago, the fish clouds taken out are not very big. After being divided into three pieces, there is already only one bite...even a little smaller!
Among the four dishes, Liu Maoxing’s first dish, "Mapo Sea Bream Tofu", came to mind when he thaw the sea bream and inspected its meat quality. The two dishes in the middle were "Jade Mantang" and "Golden Crumb Grilled Fish". , Are all made to a certain extent, inspired by Erina.
After all, in the face of this sea bream that cannot be cooked by conventional means, Erina is prepared, but Liu Subaru has to play on the spot...
When Erina saw "Fish Cloud", she was also slightly stunned. She obviously didn't expect to have such a hand...
Although, as one of the ten bests of Yuanyue, when facing the world of cuisine, Erina's vision is very broad, but after all he grew up in an island country. In the daily teaching of Yuanyue College, in addition to island cuisine, he pays more attention to French cuisine. Western cuisine, so Erina never thought that he could bypass the fish and use the "fish cloud" in "fish head"!
And Liu Subaru did not rely solely on the selected ingredients as an advantage, as the five judges are intoxicated now...
In order to make up for the small "fish cloud", after being divided into small pieces, there may be insufficient weakness in the taste, Liu Subaru specially chose the "braised" cooking method!
And what is used to braise "fish cloud" is not ordinary soup, but thick corn juice with saffron and other spices!
"The smoothness of the'fish cloud' and the crispness of the vegetables form a wonderful combination. Although the temperature difference is not used, the effect is not inferior to the previous'sea bream dumplings'!"
"Yes, cucumber slices and Shanghai greens, although only five slices and five leaves are used each, they are processed separately! Cucumbers are lightly pickled with coarse salt, while Shanghai greens are made of prickly ash, etc. The spices are blanched..."
"Later, the two were combined to create a basket-shaped structure, and then the fish cloud was put in and poured into the thick corn juice..."
"That's it! Use the mellow aroma of corn to highlight the unique smooth taste of'Yuyun', and at the same time inject seasoned corn juice to improve the problem of insufficient taste after Yuyun is divided into pieces!"
"This kind of cuisine that does not stick to the original thinking... deserves to be the chef chosen by the Liu family as the descendant of the foreign surname!"
Well, although Liu Subaru is also surnamed Liu, this is just a "coincidence". In theory, every representative who participates in the "God Cooking Showdown" should be the "successor" of the two families, but as the Nagiri family of separation, Claiming to regard all the graduates of Yuanyue as descendants, and indeed there are few people, in recent decades, none of them have come from their own family.
In contrast, the master Liu's family dispatched every year must be the strongest young chef of his own time...
This year, if it were not for the appearance of Pleiades Liu and the reinterpretation of the prophecy, they would only send Pleiades Liu Yuan.
"The judges are starting to write the results! Erina is now... 16.70 points, I don't know what will happen to the three dishes of A Xing's queen!"
"The score for'Golden Crumbs Grilled Fish Fillet' came out! After the average it was...4.08!
"The average score of'Pearl and Jade Mansion' is 4.06...Oops, it's not high!"
"There is also the last'Golden Jade and White Jade Bead'...4.44 points! It surpassed Erina's French fish soup! The real highest score of this year has appeared!"
"Wait...Although I got the highest score in the game, if you add 4.10 points for the first "Mapo Snapper Tofu", that is 16.68 points? It's still 0.02 points lower."
The audience off the court was very nervous...
On the other hand, Liu Subaru and Erina had the same expressions after seeing the scores. They were nervous at the same time, and then they were silently relieved. However, Erina immediately covered up their expressions and hugged her arms in front of her chest. To Liu Subaru snorted coldly: "Huh, in Chinese, should the middle two dishes be said to be'picking people's teeth'?"
Erina could naturally see that Liu Subaru's "Golden Chips Grilled Fish Fillet" and "Jade Full House" refer to his own recipes in some details...
At the beginning, Liu Subaru should only have a general idea. Later, while doing it slowly, he observed some of Erina's handling methods and constantly improved.
For the reason of "seeing the text and knowing the righteousness", Liu Subaru stared at Erina's teeth, the latter immediately closed his mouth tightly, and stared at Liu Subaru in shame.
Suddenly Liu Subaru seemed to have thought of something again, and the look in Erina's eyes faintly exuded a "different" brilliance.
"Um... Erina, have you comprehended the'Spice Spirit'?"
Liu Subaru's endless questioning made Erina stunned, but he still replied: "I have already started...what's wrong?"
"No, it's okay, it's okay for the time being..." Liu Subaru's hesitation made Erina even more unhappy, always feeling as if he was hiding something.
But at this moment, Master Jie interrupted: "Okay! The results of the first round have come out, so go and rest first! The content of the second round will be announced tomorrow morning after we discuss it."
Both parties were quite satisfied with the results of the first round, at least they were able to "reluctantly" accept...
After all, although Erina didn't admit it verbally, in fact, the idea in his mind was similar to Liu Subaru.
That is, if the opponent is regarded as a strong opponent, and even if the topic is set in advance in the form of a halberd, Liu Subaru's odds of winning will be slightly higher.
And now, with preparations, Erina is only barely leading by 0.02 points, but after all, in this game alone, he still wins!
When Liu Subaru was "suddenly attacked", he was still only slightly behind by 0.02 points, because the rule of "God's Cooking Showdown" is to compare the total points of three matches instead of two wins in three games, so the first round The difference is only 0.02 points, and the impact is not significant.
People from Nagiri and Xinhu will also be staying at Yangquan Hotel today, and the next itinerary will be decided after the content of the second round of the duel is confirmed.
Liu Louzo led them to a few specially prepared suites. At this time, Nitomori went to discuss the content of the second round of the duel with other judges, and Nageri Senzaemon and Nageri Zonge went to meet Liu. The elder of the family, go ahead and write out the candidates for the third round of the duel!
Because the items for the third round of the duel were drawn from the Liu Family's ancestral hall, and the 100 questions for the draw were 50 questions for each of the main family and division...
After Liu Lousan left, Erina asked Liu Subaru who followed, "What are you doing with us?"
"Huh? Didn't you say that you came to your room tonight?" Liu Maoxing answered naturally.
During the previous duel, it was in the lobby of Yangquan Restaurant, and there was no broadcast screen or the like. Alice and others had not heard Erina's words, nor did they know the tone and expression of Erina's words. .
At this time, hearing Liu Subaru say about it, Alice and Scarlett looked at Erina in surprise...
Leonora also looked at Erina with a relieved(?) expression and sighed: "Little Erina has finally grown up!"
When Erina saw Liu Subaru say something, he knew it would be okay. The horse was red-eared and said anxiously, "Are you an idiot? I, I said... I didn't want you now... nor... In short, I wanted you. Come to my room...you, you..."
Liu Subaru had a surprised expression: "What's wrong? Didn't you say that you want to invite me to eat the dishes from the previous confrontation? My sea bream tofu, grilled fish fillets with gold crumbs, and'Jade Mantang' are all left. 'Yuyun' wait until I go to the warehouse to fetch some...
how about it?Come along with Alice and the little secretary!By the way, you can also call Shang Yuan Yuan. After the third round of the duel, you can let her be your guide. Let's go to Jiuzhaigou for a few days together... What are you all looking at me for?"
Liu Subaru always felt that the eyes of others were weird.
Leonora said at this time: "Gluck, Alice, then have fun with Erina tonight... By the way, Erina is in the room next to me, right?"
"Humph! If you dare to come in, just come in! Just to ask you, what's the matter with you and Liu... Liu's family!" Erina said.
The four of them entered Erina's room. After seeing the layout and decoration of the room, they had to sigh that Yangquan Hotel was indeed not in vain, and the room was no worse than Yuanyue Hotel.
And at this moment, I saw Liu Maoyuan launching a dining car...but it was full of raw ingredients, mostly sea bream!Liu Maoxing actually called her to come!
"A Xing, the things you want are here, or I will..." Liu Maoyuan felt that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing and wanted to leave first.
"Wait! Did you hear any sound?" Alice said suddenly.
"It seems... from next door?"
"It's Madame Leonora's voice!" Liu Subaru said immediately.
Several people immediately rushed out again...
The voice sounded faintly, it seemed to be a scream after isolation!
"Mom!" Alice pushed open Leonora's door abruptly, but found Leonora standing in the room, facing the wall separating Erinai's room, as if showing her singing voice.
"Huh? Mom? What are you doing?" Alice wondered.
Leonora looked at them and giggled again: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm just experimenting with the soundproofing of the hotel, and it's so loud, you just heard..."
"..." Liu Subaru wanted to know, who should she try this for?
