Rebirth as a Cooking God

Nakiri Senzaemon made his words very clear.

Competing for beauty at the same table!

Words cannot determine victory or defeat, and the deeper aspects of cooking cannot be described and conveyed through words. For example, the food spirit that Xia Yu realized is nothing more than focusing on and reflecting personal characteristics, which is very simple. However, in order to highlight such characteristics in actual cooking, there are several chefs who can do it. Arrived?

In an instant, Xia Yu understood that this old guy Senzaemon wanted to borrow his works to give him enlightenment!

I need to recharge my cooking skills!

Xia Yu secretly said: If I can't create a dragon-level kill, I have no qualifications to go back to Europa to cause trouble with Gaius. This is a ticket to challenge the king of heaven, and go straight to the highest culinary arena in the world today.

I am happy to accept Senzaemon's invitation.

Commander, are you planning to show me your 'personal kill'? Xia Yu asked the old guy.

Senzaemon chuckled, My food is actually very simple.

oh?

Actually, judging from your words and deeds when you resumed business today to entertain guests, you have more or less learned some tricks.

Dragon-level death is not as unattainable as you think.

Of course, once you enter the door, you will feel suddenly enlightened.

After a pause of words, the old guy's smile made Xia Yu subconsciously curse old fox in his heart. A proper cunning smile.

I'll go talk to them. By the way, Commander, what ingredients do you need?

You'll find out later.

good!

Xia Yu went to the store opposite the small pond. Dojima Gin, Kanbara Masato and others in the No. 1 private room waved to him. He went over and sat down on the tatami. The hostess poured him a cup of hot tea. After drinking the tea, Xia Yu found that all the big guys were like the angry-eyed King Kong in the mountain temple. They looked at him with wide eyes, with the attribute of curiosity written on their faces.

I said, the commander-in-chief kept us waiting all afternoon. Why? Aoki Souta moved his butt forward and spoke loudly.

What did the commander-in-chief talk to you about just now?

Dojima Ginya asked.

Uh, how should I put it? You probably want to... teach me something? Xia Yu said. At this time, Nakiri Senzaemon was at the lake pavilion and glanced at this far away, and Xia Yu knew that he He couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up quickly and said, The commander-in-chief and I are going to cook. Please wait a moment.

Cooking with the commander-in-chief?

Everyone watched in astonishment as he strode away.

Should we cook together or individually? The difference here is a big problem.

It’s not uncommon for chefs to work together to create a delicious meal. If Senzaemon takes the initiative to ask, the elders will help the younger ones to protect them, but if it is the other way around, and the 'Demon King of Food' mentions cooking separately, the dishes of both sides will be placed on the same table...

This is a letter of challenge that made many people sweat.

Speaking of which, the ‘Demon King of Food’ Nakiri Senzaemon has been silent for ten or twenty years. He hasn’t competed with anyone for a long time, right?

Is the Commander-in-Chief acting on a whim? He still feels threatened by Demon King Xia.

Someone whispered something, and the atmosphere in the private room became even weirder.

Suddenly, a red-haired middle-aged man stood up and left the table. Soma Yukihira, who was on the second floor, saw him and couldn't help shouting: Dad, where are you going?

Saiba Joichiro went straight to the kitchen.

Seeing that he had been castrated cleanly and still in a sitting position, all the bosses reacted, Hey!

Whatever!

Yes, yes, no matter what the commander-in-chief means, this will definitely be a very interesting collision. Hehehe, when the little devil encounters the old devil, will he be killed instantly?

In the kitchen, Xia Yu held a large-screen smartphone between his ear and left shoulder. He turned on the faucet, washed his hands carefully, and made an international long-distance call.

...Let Senzaemon answer the phone!

A helpless voice came from the receiver. The old man Xia Qingyuan was far away in China. He is also an old fool. How could the majestic neon food world, the gourmet devil, and the king of heaven invite you, a junior, to discuss his art in private?

Xia Yu had no choice but to hand the phone to Commander Yuanyue.

Regarding his old friend's accusation, Senzaemon said calmly: I think it's time.

The voice on the other end was even louder: Humph, I think it's early!

Is it still early?

Senzaemon glanced at Xia Yu.

That boy, I see signs of his expansion. The young man must have his tail raised to the sky because of the flattery of the big devil on the Internet. No one can look down on him. At this time, we should not tell him to gain the best of hundreds of schools of thought and combine skills. At the right time, he doesn't have the mood, and he can't just calm down, lower his body, and then go to gather hundreds of meals.

Xia Yu listened clearly and had ten thousand complaints in his heart.

Expand your sister!

However, the complaints were replaced by a flash of inspiration. Xia Yu's ears stood up high, and he thought inwardly: Taking advantage of hundreds of schools of thought... merging together?

Hundreds of meals?

Hey, old man, did you do this on purpose?

The sound on the phone was already clear, but the old guy on the other end deliberately made his voice louder, as if he was afraid that Xia Yu wouldn't hear it. This naked explicit statement made Xia Yu not know what to say. At the same time, Xia Yu felt very itchy deep in his heart. He was turned off by the old man's words, so he cursed in a low voice with resentment: Okay, Old man, you succeeded again!

How to gain the advantages of hundreds of schools of thought?

What about blending? It's even harder.

Is it enough to eat a table full of food from hundreds of families? The problem is that chefs are not foodies. If they only know how to eat but don't understand the art of gourmet food, then they are classified as amateur foodies.

Xia Yu thought.

Knowledge in food is not just about cooking techniques.

The color, fragrance, form and mind are nourishing.

The cultural connotation, and the reason why a dish has been passed down and is generally accepted by people. In short, unlike ordinary foodies, chefs have to eat with brains and thinking.

The call ended quickly. Nakiri Senzaemon returned the phone to Xia Yu with a strange look in his eyes. He seemed to have held it for a while before slowly saying: Your guy seems to be very reluctant to let you contact the dragon class too early. Must kill.

Xia Yu retorted sharply: The old man must be afraid that my cooking skills will surpass his, and there will be no place for my old face.

Nakiri Senzaemon: ...

...

A few of the big guys who had just entered the kitchen were staggering.

Soon, Xia Yu and Senzaemon both got their own ingredients.

It is worth mentioning that the shop did not have fresh crabs, so Senzaemon still called and asked someone to deliver the ingredients.

Seeing a huge crab on the wooden chopping board, Dojima saw the brand label hanging on the claws of the Silver Finger Crab and said, This is the Matsuba Crab.

Snow crab?

Xia Yu flipped through the label of the crab claws and saw that the place of origin was marked Tottori, and showed an expression as if it was true.

Tottori Prefecture, the prefecture with the smallest population in Japan, has the highest crab production in the world.

There are three famous crabs in Neon: king crab, red hair crab and pine leaf crab.

When it comes to crabs and Tottori Prefecture, we have to talk about the girl in the Japanese drama 5 to 9 whose eyes light up when she hears crabs. Matsuba crab is called the King of Winter Taste by Neon people. It is not without reason. But the problem is that now is the season of midsummer. Logically speaking, Matsuba crab is not the most delicious time period. Why did Senzaemon choose it? ?

Xia Yu cast an extremely suspicious look at the 'Eating Demon King'.

Selecting ingredients is also an essential skill for chefs.

Eat whatever is in season.

You must know how to follow the seasonal rules in your diet. This common sense and principle cannot be understood by an old man who is the devil in the neon food world.

Why knowingly?

If you have something to do during the day, just do some liver replenishing at night.
