The Counterfeit Little Master of the Halberd
Chapter 366 Coconut Crab Cake and Golden Crab Cake
"Three, please taste it! This is my'Coconut Crab Mousse', please taste it!" said Kojiro Shinomiya.
The judges were the commander-in-chief Nakiri Senzaemon, the president of the Japanese Cuisine Revival Association Oizumi Kakinoshin, and the director of French cuisine Mr. Chapel...
At this time, in front of the three of them, each placed a small cake. The whole looked golden, and there was no extra decoration on it, except that the base was made of coconut crab shells!
"Then try it!"
As it should be, Oizumi Kakizhijin was the first one who couldn't help it, moved the knife and fork, and cut off a piece of the cake with some trouble...
Why bother?
Because the crab shell is not flat!, Now the crab shell is facing up with the groove, which means that after you cut the knife, you cannot "break it in two". When the knife is dropped, it will inevitably get stuck on the crab shell, and the bottom part of the crab shell will not be cut!
The little old man Daquan also made a vertical cut and another horizontal cut, and only then cut a small piece.
While frowning, the other two judges also acted like the law, putting a small piece of cake in their mouths.
The "Coconut Crab Cake" at Shinomiya is obviously biased towards desserts, while the crab-flavored desserts...a bit dark!
It is said that the umami taste of crab is not next to dessert...
When the cake was cut, the judges discovered that there was a mousse layer in the cake, and Kojiro Shinomiya had confirmed that the cake had been refrigerated before being presented.
At this time, the entrance of the cake, the "mousse" sandwich layer is just at the optimal temperature. They have no super touch and can't perceive it too carefully, but they also know that this refreshing icy feeling is about 2 or 3 degrees!
When you "sip" the cake in your mouth, the soft and delicate texture of the cake layer, as well as the smooth and icy touch of the mousse layer, are perfectly combined!
The most exciting thing is that while enjoying the taste, the soft and sweet cake layer, as well as the slightly salty mousse layer, has the taste of being on a tropical beach.
For a time, the three judges seemed to see coconut crabs climbing coconut trees on the sunny beach.
The clothes on the commander-in-chief's body instantly broke apart!
Liu Subaru could not help but secretly said: Fortunately, his old man hasn't learned to "tear clothes", otherwise Chapel and Oizumi Shizhijin...
At that time, it is estimated that the "chef who can't laugh" Chapel in the hearts of the students will have no face to teach others!
"This, this mousse layer is... crabmeat?"
"No, it's not an ordinary mousse at all!"
"That's right, while it is cold and silky, there is still some feeling of'strength'?"
"When I saw these layers of mousse, I thought it was crab paste, made using molecular cuisine, but I couldn't think of it..."
"It's crab leg meat! After the crab leg meat is powdered, it is mixed with gel cream... The unique coconut fragrance in the coconut crab meat is also soaked in the cake, which is delicious!"
The taste of coconut crab is different from ordinary crabs, because coconut crab eats almost nothing except coconut, so the crab meat has a light coconut fragrance.
The three judges did not hesitate to praise your words with one word and one word from me...
But for some reason, many viewers felt that the judges did not fully "play".
In other words, the "Coconut Crab Cake" of Sigong did not show the effect of his "identity"!
Of course, apart from the three judges, everyone just vaguely feels this way...After all, these three judges on the board of judges have seen what they look like when they taste truly satisfying dishes.
As for the three judges themselves, they already have this kind of judgment-Kojiro Shinomiya's dishes... But so?
It's not how bad the "Coconut Crab Cake" of the fourth house is. Compared with the first seats in the past, including the cooking skills of the fourth house when he was at school, it is already significantly higher. It is said that they should not be "disappointed".
The "Coconut Crab Cake" is indeed delicious, just like Daquan almost finished eating the upper part of the crab shell.
The first seat of the top ten who graduated ten years ago, with this kind of cooking skills, it is not bad...
but!Because Kojiro Shinomiya has risen to fame in the past six months, they have more expectations. In their original view, Kojiro Shinomiya should not "just that"!
Also puzzled, there is also Liu Subaru...
That's right, at this time, Liu Subaru was silent, and tasted the extra "coconut crab cake" on the Si Gong cooking table...
Just as Liu Subaru would prepare a dish for his opponent every time, now almost everyone who eats a halberd with Liu Subaru will also default to this "tradition"...
However, Erina was indignant at this time-why did Liu Subaru be so carelessly eating his opponent's cooking in the "Jiji", so no one saw it?
You must know that when she also learned Liu Subaru to do this, she was so nervous to death, she always felt that the audience was paying attention to herself!
"It seems that mental quality is very important!" Erina said to herself.
Linger: "..."
Alice on the side guessed what her sister was talking about, and couldn't help but vomit: "I think the cook should have a bottom line..."
The three judges didn't have much at this time. Since they are "food halberds", then wait until after tasting Liu Subaru's cuisine, and then decide the winner.
But... at this time they feel that if Liu Subaru is "no accident", he should win!
Liu Subaru's best performance before is already above this "coconut crab cake".
At this moment, Si Gong smiled lightly, set up his glasses and said, "No, please continue to use the spoons next to the three to taste the part of the crab shells! It's too early to say these."
And almost at the same time, Liu Subaru had also discovered a crab shell...
Just when the fourth house was talking...No, before the fourth house was talking, Liu Subaru discovered the essence of this "coconut crab cake", and directly picked up the crab shell and asked a small spoon to cut out the part of the shell!
His super-olfactory sense told him that there is a greater "treasure" below!
Erina and Ling'er also became nervous at this time, staring at Liu Subaru's reaction...
As for the three judges, Yiyan also picked up the spoon and fell into the crab shell.
Previously, because the crab shell had a thick edge, when the knife was dropped to taste the upper part, it never touched the cake inside.
Only then did they feel... different!
The color of the cake inside is the same as the one above, but it feels completely different.
The upper part is just a mousse cake, but the lower part... as soon as the spoon falls, it is not a complete cake, but crab meat!
To be precise, it should be filled with cake and cheese between crab meat and crab shells.
After the entrance of the "cake" of the crab shell part, the three judges changed their faces.
The commander-in-chief had just put on the clothes, and the "clothes were torn". Not to mention, Chapel, who has always been unsmiling, showed an expression of "enjoyment" at this time, like...like a drunk middle-aged uncle!
Even the usual expression like the "Gourmet Demon" carved out of stone, now shows the look of enjoyment...
You must know that the commander generally tastes satisfactory dishes and smiles is a great honor, and although everyone has seen "clothes ripped" many times, this expression is definitely not common!
"That's it! Use the gap between the crab shell and the crab meat to stuff the cake embryo..."
"Moreover, these crab meats were unloaded first, processed in a way similar to baked crabs with cheese, and then refilled!"
"Also, coconut milk should also be added to this cake to make it more compatible with the taste of coconut crab..."
"The flavors of crabmeat, crab roe, cheese, and cake are a perfect combination!"
"It deserves to be an upstart French cuisine that has all three major French cuisines in a three-star Grand Slam..."
The fourth house finally said at this time: "Teacher Chapel is too acclaimed. It is only the four major cuisines, not a'Grand Slam'."
The three judges also heard that behind Shinomiya's words was their "ambition" for cooking!
Thinking that I can teach such students, I am both happy and proud...
At this moment, another student who made them proud began to present the food.
"I've tasted the'Coconut Crab Cake' of Master Si Gong, please try my'Golden Crab Cake' again! Different from the'Coconut Crab Cake' of Master Si Gong which needs to be refrigerated, my'Golden Crab Cake' will take advantage of Hot is delicious!" Liu Subaru said.
The three judges looked at the plate in front of them with a golden fried cake, and they couldn't help showing weird looks...
This "golden crab cake" looks like a whole sleeping crab wrapped in noodles and fried!
Especially the two crab claws still exposed outside the surface, as if expressing silent accusations...
"Crab claws are ornaments and can be taken down." Liu Subaru reminded.
The three judges rolled their eyes in their hearts one after another, and secretly said: It really is not edible!
You must know that the crab claws of the sleeping crab are originally larger than ordinary crabs. Looking at the two crab claws so large outside, the three judges have already suspected their teeth...
Even "soft shell crabs" are not much softer on crab claws with relatively thick shells!
I pulled out the crab shell that was doubtful of my life, and the rest was eaten with a golden fried noodle. This noodle is really bigger than the sleeping crab. It can be held with one hand, but it is absolutely impossible to hold it. , It seems quite weight...
Among the three judges, Senzaemon and Oizumi Kakishin all picked up the golden fried noodles directly at this time, and Chapel was still more accustomed to using a knife and fork, but Liu Subaru reminded at this time: "Xia Teacher Pell, might as well try the feeling of'full mouth'!"
Originally, Chapel thought this deep-fried noodle cake was not small, so he wanted to use a knife and fork. After all, in a French banquet, it is indecent behavior to grab food or make noises...
However, since there is a "more suitable" way to guide the eating, Chapel also followed his kindness and directly grabbed the golden crab cakes.
The rules of a French banquet are rules, but Chapel understands better that even the respect for the chefs is a manifestation of the diners' self-cultivation!
As a gourmet, you should taste the cuisine in the most suitable way, not the one you are most used to. This is the rule of the world's cuisine.
Squeak... Squeak...
Suddenly, the chewing sound that could be heard in almost the front row of the audience was heard from the judges!
Liu Subaru said before that the feeling of "full mouth" is more suitable for "golden crab cakes", so at this time all three judges bite as big as possible, and both cheeks are still bulging.
But this kind of sound is definitely not something that can be made with a lot of food in the mouth...
Unlike the audience watching the three judges nervously, how does Erina feel relieved at this time?
