Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Pfft, what the hell are these two guys doing? Even the partners in the same group as me are not convinced by each other?

After all, they are just two brats!

That's right, they still dare to speak out loudly, do they think this is their home too? After crying twice, adults will let them go, hehe...

Hurry up and let them know how cruel the assessment is! Brat, don't cry!

Many people became hostile to Liu Maoxing and the others because of what the other group of teenagers said before. The squint-eyed boy said to Alice, I'm sorry, it seems to have caused you some trouble.

Alice said in a cold voice: No, it's not troublesome, it's just letting some mediocre people bother you... I didn't expect that even the descendants of the Shanshan family would come to participate in this competition! Skill, how much have you learned?

It's just fur, I'm just curious, what kind of behavior will a person who is favored by the blood relatives of the 'Demon King of Food' behave? the squint-eyed boy said tit for tat.

But at this moment, Liu Maoxing and Kurokiba didn't know about their conversation, and the three judges looked at each other and said, Okay, then hurry up... and if any of the two salmon doesn't meet the standard, They will all be considered eliminated!

After hearing the judge's words, Liu Maoxing and Kurokiba picked up a sashimi knife at the same time...

The underestimation and ridicule of other players in the surrounding groups did not affect the performance of the two of them at all.

Whether it's Liu Maoxing, who has reached the advanced four-star in his cooking skills, or Kurokiba, who has been dealing with seafood since he was a child, they all cut off the salmon skin conveniently at the moment of their hands, and then inserted the sashimi knife obliquely into the fish body During the process, with a movement of the wrist, the fish bones and intestines were also shaved!

Be careful! Kid, the sashimi knife is very sharp, don't scratch your hand... gurgle... tsk!

The speed of the two people's actions was so fast that it made people feel a little dizzy. Some of the unsuccessful contestants who were still mocking the two just now, and some who hadn't had time to stop, seemed to be stuck around the neck by invisible hands at this time, muttering speechless...

I had no choice but to blush, forced a disdainful voice, then bowed my head and left!

Although the squint-eyed boy described him as a lot of age, the Seafood Pastry Contest was originally a competition for newcomers, and the contestants who came to participate would not be over 25 years old, and they were all young and energetic, so they were naturally popular Not to be stimulated like this.

Liu Maoxing and Kurokiba Ryo, both of them started to process the salmon at the same time, and they both put down their sashimi knives in less than fifteen minutes. The nearly one-meter-long salmon had turned into a cold dish, and the already stacked plate Salmon cold cuts were presented to the three judges.

Compared with other groups, although Liu Maoxing and Kurokiba let the judges taste two salmon sashimi, the time it took was definitely not much less than them!

Excellent sword skills! Where... are you from? It seems that you haven't obtained any level certification yet? The three judges asked with bright eyes, completely different from the previous attitude.

We are Yuanyue's students. Liu Maoxing replied.

Yuanyue Academy... The judges shook their heads in disappointment.

Originally, he saw that the two had never passed the grade certification, and he fantasized about whether it might be undiscovered jade, so that he could try to win him over as much as possible, but when he heard the name of Yuanyue College, he knew Impossible.

Okay, let's taste it first... the sashimi here is ready. The judge said after looking at the two kinds of sashimi in a daze.

The difference is still obvious. Kurokiba Ryo’s sashimi looks like it’s skinned and boned, cut straight at the meaty place, and sliced ​​at the side where the meat is slightly thinner. In the end, the three cold dishes are divided into uneven thicknesses. three kinds of...

The thinnest salmon fillets are rolled into rolls, the middle salmon fillets are stacked one by one, and the thickest ones are placed on the side alone.

Kurokiba Ryo interrupted: Wait! I'll give you a suggestion. From thin to thick, each kind of sashimi tastes better!

Eh? Is that so? The three judges said while tasting the thinnest piece of salmon first...

And Liu Maoxing just watched this scene, and didn't make a sound to stop it.

The salmon chosen by the two were almost the same in quality. If they didn't want to use other methods, the winner would be a random one!

Although the kitchen utensils are restricted and other ingredients cannot be used, only sashimi can only be sliced, but for Liu Maoxing and Kurokiba, they can still come up with tricks...

At the first bite, the three judges were relatively calm, thinking that this was probably slightly higher than the qualified level, and they were even a little disappointed because of Kurokiba's previous performance of sword skills.

Probably because the slices are a bit thin, which prevents the salmon from showing its excellent quality!

However, when they took the second bite, the eyes of the three of them brightened again. This time, not only did they display the quality of the salmon itself, but it also appeared to be sublimated...

Just after the third bite, the three judges showed obsessed looks, as if what was placed in front of them was not the salmon in the ordinary trading market, but a special salmon specially raised for the best cooking!

Why, how did this happen? There shouldn't be salmon of this quality for sale outside...

No! We've seen it before, it's not a high-end category!

Yes, is it because of pure knife skills? The three judges exclaimed.

Kurokiba had already taken off his turban at this time, and faced the doubts and shock of the three judges, he only put on a cute look who hadn't woken up: Eh? What are you talking about?

...Why does it feel like a different person? The three judges were a little bit unacceptable to the performance gap before and after Hei Muchang.

At this moment, Liu Maoxing opened his mouth to explain for Kurokiba: Because it's 'instinct'.

Instinct? The three judges looked at each other, as if they didn't understand what Liu Maoxing meant.

That's right, using the 'instinct' of biological taste to create a progressive atmosphere with the salmon meat of the same body and the same origin, which makes people more satisfied than the real taste. Liu Maoxing nodded.

Is that so? But even...

I understand that as a judge, you don't need to consider other factors, as long as you choose the dish that you think is more delicious! Next is my 'Sanhua Cold Dish', I don't have to pay too much attention, you can taste whatever you want! Different shapes , will have a different taste!

Liu Maoxing still spoke confidently, only to see that Liu Maoxing’s cold dishes were completely different from Kurokiba’s, and Kurokiba used all the salmon meat, while Liu Maoxing’s meat yield was only about 70%, and the others were The loss is gone.

You can see that on the cutting board where Liu Maoxing cut the fish, there is also written minced meat...

And on the plate, there are a few brightly colored salmon meat, the flowers carved out of it, three kinds of flowers in different shapes!

This is also the reason why the previous three judges decided to taste the cold dishes of Heikichang first. Good things are always willing to stay for a while.

The reason why Liu Maoxing did this is not only for the sake of beauty, but because it is a kind of sashimi that can enhance the taste of sashimi through the petals connected to each other at the root, and the petals of uneven thickness are separated and interlaced with each other. form!

Different from Kurokiba's taste instinct fraud, Liu Maoxing's flower cut is a way that can really improve the taste...

In the Zhonghua Yiyi animation, Li Yan returned after 16 years and fought with Ding You again on the theme of lobster. The revenge of the arrow, in the first competition of Lobster Cold Dishes Without Vision, a poisonous scorpion was used to plot against Ding You, making it impossible to continue cooking!

But of course the result needless to say, the Little Master fought on behalf of his master, also blindfolded, and made raw lobster into a cold dish, which won Li Yan's attention, and then continued the next two battles with him...

And Xiao Dangjia used the flower cut method, and the knife was like a flower, completely stimulating the taste of the fresh lobster.

Although Huaqie is helpful to improve the taste of freshness, it also requires extremely high knife skills. If the speed is not fast enough, even if the shape is carved, it will only draw a tiger instead of a dog!

With Liu Maoxing's all-round advanced four-star knife skills, he can barely do it, like performing flower cuts with his eyes closed, which is beyond his current ability.

Oh? The squint-eyed boy, who obviously didn't taste it, looked at Liu Maoxing's flower cut, but made a voice that seemed very interested.

At the beginning, the three judges each took a kind of flower as if they were in their mouths, and then suddenly showed a shocked look, and after a little bit of a daze, they immediately went to grab the other two flowers that they hadn't eaten before. !

The fish meat on this 'tulip' is already so thin, but it still maintains such a taste!

The fish on the 'chrysanthemum' looks scattered, but under the interaction, it unexpectedly springs teeth...

There is also the thickest 'rose'! The taste is no less than that of the previous cold dishes, and the third thickest sashimi after the chain reaction!

Liu Maoxing explained a little bit: It is not only the interaction of the shape of the petals, but also the texture of the salmon itself must be grasped to a certain extent to have such an effect! Moreover, the speed of the knife drop is also very high. Otherwise, it will be bad if you only carve out the shape.”

This is to remind the contestants who have not yet passed the review, not to forcefully imitate him, otherwise the contestants who have hope of passing may be eliminated...

After the three judges looked at each other, they apparently reached a consensus, and the judge in the middle said, Contestant Liu Maoxing, right? Regarding the special request you and contestant Heikiba made before, our three opinions are... Your Sanhua cold dish is even better!

Oh, that's it. Kurokiba said blankly, and at the same time put on the hood...

In an instant, Kurokiba's aura changed, and he showed a horrified expression and said, Hey! You three, explain to me clearly that his cold dishes really surpassed mine? Are you kidding me!

... Is that scarf your real body? Mr. Kurokiba, your hors d'oeuvres are also very good, but your hors d'oeuvres can only be tasted when you taste the third most tender piece of salmon in the order of progression. For the best taste, each of Liu Maoxing's three cutting methods can be achieved! So although there is little difference in the peak, we still think that Liu Maoxing is better! The judges said firmly.
