Rebirth as a Cooking God

Winner, Totsuki——

Congratulations to the Yuanyue team for defeating a strong enemy and successfully reaching the finals of Division A!

On the TV screen, the long red-haired Saiba Joichiro glanced at his defeated opponent indifferently.

Madeleine, the number one special chef of the Orlando team, stared blankly at the dessert cups on the judging table. Each judge had a delicate and transparent cup in front of them, which seemed to be a pudding dessert. However, the judges only tasted a spoonful and their faces were full of pudding. Sitting coldly with arms folded.

On the contrary, next to the exquisite glass, there are several simple and elegant lacquerwares. One of the green cylindrical lacquerwares is empty, and there is only the dark and deep dipping sauce in the small bowl next to it.

Ge Qie...

In the bedroom of Okurayama Villa, Xia Yu sat cross-legged on the bed. It was late at night, but he didn't feel sleepy at all. He watched the video of today's third round of Shoji over and over again, and the more he watched, the more frightened he became.

Ichiro Saiba lived up to the name of Shura and defeated Madeleine. No, it should be called a unilateral crushing.

From the judges' reactions, we can see how badly Madeleine failed.

The so-called Kudzu is an interesting traditional dessert in Japan. The literal translation of Kudzu is to use arrowroot powder to make strips of vermicelli. It is usually soaked in ice water and eaten with black honey or white honey. The refreshing icy sweetness can instantly awaken the taste and appetite.

Arrowroot!

When it comes to this kind of traditional Chinese medicine, we have to talk about medicated diet.

Xia Yu simply praised Saiba Joichiro's accomplishments in the field of medicinal diet. His 'Kudzu' had hidden secrets. He didn't know the proportion of kudzu powder. The traditional honey dipping sauce was also quite mysterious. He vaguely regretted that he was not there to watch it. Now I can only watch the video over and over again.

The next day.

After returning from a morning run, Xia Yu met Tian Suohui in the corridor who was wearing sportswear and preparing to go out for a morning run.

Hey, Xiaohui——

He stopped to say hello, By the way, I haven't asked you about your field study yet.

Tadokoro let out a cry, quickly stood up at attention, and said with a blushing face: I, I just passed the third round of field training the day before yesterday, and the internship location is your lecturer's Xia's restaurant...

A long oh sound.

So that’s it!

In the past month, Xia's restaurant has been managed by the Tamagawa sisters, and the internship plan was suspended before. However, Yuanyue did not expect to stuff people into her restaurant in the name of field study. Xia Yu couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this:

There must be something arranged by Mr. Nakiri here!

Watching the simple girl jumping out of the villa for a morning run, Xia Yu swept past the door of Maki's room where there was no movement, and smiled secretly: This little girl is probably still sleeping in.

He didn't go back to the room and went straight to the professional kitchen area of ​​the villa.

Ah, you're here!

As he approached the kitchen, unexpectedly, a beautiful figure suddenly jumped out of the corridor in front of him. Morita Maki intercepted it with a smile.

She pointed to a box of ingredients at the door and said, This is what the maid just sent. She said it was the ingredient you requested.

Well, help me when you're here! Let's have something traditional for breakfast today!

Xia Yu pushed the kitchen door open, put on an apron, rolled up her sleeves and washed her hands.

Morita Maki came closer, smelling the faint scent of virginity. Xia Yu was opening the box and took out a small bag of something that looked like flour. He placed it on the kitchen counter, opened a slit with scissors, and poured it into a clean stainless steel basin. out.

The dull gray dust suddenly filled the basin.

Not flour?

Maki sprinkled a little dust on her hand and stuck out her tongue to lick it, It tastes sweet and a bit medicinal. Hey, is it kudzu powder?

She is worthy of studying confectionery and knows the ingredients used in the traditional Japanese dessert Kudzu.

Ayu, are you planning to make kudzu? Maki patted her clean and white palms, clasping her hands behind her back, with a teasing smile on her lips, I must have watched Mr. Saiha's shokuji video, and my hands are itchy, right? . Let me tell you, Mr. Caibo's 'Kudaki' is not that easy to restore. I also watched the video last night, and there are many things I don't understand. I plan to ask Mr. Caibo today...

Geqie?

Xia Yu smiled slightly, Maki, 'Kudaki' is a Japanese way of eating it. Well, eating it ice-cold and dipped in honey is very good, but I plan to try other ways of eating it!

He didn't say much. He took the fine arrowroot powder sent by IGO, mixed it with water, stirred part of it into a thin paste, put it in a special 'non-stick pan', spread it into a layer and heated it over low heat. Soon the arrowroot paste became It became a piece of dough, similar in color to white steamed buns.

Repeated several times to get several similar kudzu noodles. Xia Yu used a kitchen knife to cut out strips of kudzu vermicelli of equal size and uniform thickness.

At this point, if you want to make 'kudaki', you can put the kudzu vermicelli in a container of ice and soak it, then get a bowl of bee dipping sauce, and you can try a simple and healthy Japanese dessert.

Morita Maki opened her eyes slightly to see how Xia Yu would handle it next.

Glancing over, he saw that the beauty was beside him. Xia Yu was in a good mood. He sprinkled a grease on the non-stick pan, cut the green pepper into shreds and removed the stems, then put it into the pan and stir-fried for a while, then added the kudzu vermicelli and stir-fried until the water required Adding some, the young man easily controlled the cooking rhythm, and sprinkled a few spices to enhance the aroma before serving.

Ahem, the first portion, the fried kudzu vermicelli is done!

After putting the plate down, Xia Yu continued to work, For the second portion, let's start work on the kudzu dumplings!

Half an hour later.

At about eight o'clock in the morning, a group of people in the villa cleaned up and spontaneously gathered in the lobby on the first floor. They saw a strange breakfast on the dining table.

Smelling the faint medicinal fragrance emanating from the air, Dojima Gin, who had put on a crisp suit, glanced at Saiba Joichiro, and laughed and said: Joichiro, it seems that your Katsuki has successfully brought up It became a trend.”

Saiba Joichiro's face twitched when he saw the table full of 'kudzu powder' dishes.

This is simply insane!

“Give way, the last ‘arrowroot omelette’ will be delivered!”

The young man came with a plate, and the strong aroma of eggs wafted from the plate in his hand, but in the aroma, there was the scent of kudzu that Saiba Joichiro was very familiar with.

So, Shura's face twitched again, and he came again!

Tasori Megumi, Tamokawa sisters, and Morita Maki, who had just arrived in Sapporo yesterday, gathered together. Zhu Qing, Nakiri Munue and his wife, and Roland Chapel from the Totsuki team also arrived.

Everyone stared at a table of 'Kudzu' dishes and looked at each other.

Seeing the young chef, whose enthusiasm seemed to have not subsided, the Tamagawa sisters looked at each other speechlessly. Tamagawa Misa poked Morita Maki and said in a low voice with a bitter face: Maki, why don't you stop it? I don't want to eat a full meal of arrowroot for breakfast. Although It is a medicinal diet that is good for health, but you can’t eat too much of it...

Everyone has a try!

Xia Yu ignored everyone's strange looks and prepared chopsticks at the dining table.

What's this?

Roland Chapel didn't recognize a large table of unrecognizable arrowroot noodles, and pointed to the fried arrowroot noodles with green peppers. It's worth mentioning that the arrowroot noodles were dyed with the color of soy sauce after being stir-fried, and they were shiny and still fresh and crisp. Delicious green pepper shreds, this is a classic Chinese stir-fry.

Fried noodles, Professor, please try it! Xia Yu chuckled.

Well--

In response, the authoritative old professor from the Toyue French Cuisine Department, under the strange gazes of everyone, picked up the vermicelli with his chopsticks, put it into his mouth and chewed it a little.

Suddenly, there was a hint of surprise on the serious face.

It's like your teeth are biting on soft and elastic gummy... Chapel said. The harder he chewed, the harder he chewed, and soon a smacking sound came from the mouth. The taste is wonderful. In addition, this kind of What materials are the vermicelli made of? It’s very delicious. The green pepper shreds give the vermicelli a refreshing taste. The seasoning is just right. It’s a very peaceful dish in every aspect, without any flaws!”

As he ate, a faint blush appeared on the old professor's face, and a genuine smile appeared between his brows.

With the tasters, everyone gave up their hesitation and enjoyed this unique breakfast together.

This is arrowroot rice dumpling? It's so strong and chewy! Dojima Gin's cheeks bulged, with a look of surprise in his eyes. The humble medicinal meatball actually awakened his appetite.

Xia Yu replied with a smile: Chop the pork belly, dice the mushrooms and carrots, mix and stir-fry the three ingredients, then pour in the arrowroot powder to make a thick paste, use gloves to shape the paste into a round shape, and apply dry arrowroot powder. Steam for another 5 to 10 minutes and then it’s ready to serve!”

“What’s going on with arrowroot omelette?!”

Tamagawa Ayaka picked up a piece of egg pancake with chopsticks and took a small bite. She was equally surprised.

It's very simple. Mix the egg liquid and arrowroot starch slurry, then add chopped green onion and fry it into an egg pancake...is it delicious?

tasty!

Tamagawa Ayaka replied without hesitation, her pretty face blushing.

Everyone was satisfied with a delicious arrowroot breakfast, and secretly decided to stay away from any arrowroot dishes for a month. If you eat too much of the same thing, the taste will inevitably be superimposed in your head and create a shadow.

Dojima Gin put on his suit jacket, stood up and looked at his watch, The second semi-finals of Division A and B will start at 10 o'clock, do you want to go?

He glanced at Xia Yu, obviously asking the boy.

When Nagi Kiriji faces the special chefs of the Southeast Asian Chefs Alliance, will he come up with his trump card recipe? Xia Yu asked.

Startled for a moment, Dojima Gin shook his head: No!

Then I might as well study in the villa. Xia Yu shrugged.

what about you?

Dojima Gin could only ask others.

I'll go for a walk with you. Ichiro Saiba and Roland Chapel stood up.

Nakiri Munue pushed up his glasses frame and said, I still have molecular projects to study.

Leonora smiled and sat next to her husband, and the husband sang and the wife followed.

…

It's approaching ten o'clock in the morning.

Backstage at the venue in Division A.

The special chefs of the 'Research School' were scattered throughout the hall, closing their eyes to rest.

Lin giant Lei Zhe and Nakiri Thistle are in a soundproof side room.

Snapped.

Putting down the latest food magazine in his hand, it was the most famous Taste Weekly in Japan. Lin giant Lei Zhe glanced at the picture of the people on the cover of the magazine. Xia Yu, Dojima Gin, who represented Yueyue and defeated the powerful enemy, Saiba Joichiro was all on camera, all of them looked impressive in white chef uniforms, and the cover had a line of eye-catching characters——

Toyue destroys Orlando!

Three to zero, it's not just a huge defeat, it's not an exaggeration to say it's a crushing victory!

Lei Zhe suddenly said: Nakiri Thistle, we face Totsuki in the semi-regional finals, what do you think our winning rate is?
