Shokuki: Start with an izakaya and make everyone cry

people!

For the unknown.

Often fearful, but also curious.

The essence of making molecular cuisine is similar to doing various chemical experiments in the laboratory. The raw materials used are no longer food, but a bunch of chemicals!

Then, through deployment, processing, polishing, separation, fusion and other means.

There will be peach-flavored caviar, wine-flavored pearls, soft stones, chocolate-flavored screws, and eggs made of mango...

The appearance of these things is often quite explosive, and even subverts people's understanding of the food world!

"At the end of the day."

"I deliberately pursue innovation in the process of developing molecular cuisine."

"I often think about relying on all theoretical knowledge and the use of various high-tech instruments to create many unique dishes in the world."

“In this way, we can win people’s curiosity and shock about unknown things!”

"However, the application of various techniques and knowledge in molecular cuisine is only a means at best."

"well!"

"I'm such a fool."

"In these years, I have neglected the two most important things in cooking, taste and texture!"

Nakiri Alice, who wanted to understand, sighed deeply.

It cannot be denied that she has achieved many amazing achievements in the field of molecular cuisine.

But it is precisely because she focused too much on the uniqueness of molecular cuisine that her vision began to become narrow, and it was difficult to integrate her ideas with traditional cuisine.

From the fact that she could easily defeat her confidant Kurokiba Ryo when she was young, but was overtaken by him as she grew older, we can know that her strength has stagnated in recent years.

In short.

She hit a bottleneck and was unable to break it.

…

Alice looked like she had some realization.

Here, Nakiri Erina's thoughts became a little complicated.

I remember that when I first came to the izakaya, I was conquered and captured by Zhang Fan with three kinds of Western fast food!

And he also understood in his heart that even ordinary ingredients can conquer God's Tongue as long as they are cooked well.

Obviously.

On Zhang Fan.

He really has a magic power that can make every diner who is confused wake up!

Perhaps it is for this reason that everyone will admire him in their hearts and even have a good impression of him.

"Any cuisine."

"What matters is practicality."

"Alice, no matter how cool your molecular cuisine is, if it doesn't satisfy diners in terms of taste, what's the use?"

"In the end, it will only be a castle in the air, and there is a danger of collapse at any time."

"Why I never regard you as my opponent? There is certainly a reason for this because of God's Tongue, but the main reason is that your dishes are really nothing but gorgeous and beautiful every time!"

Erina couldn't help but interject.

In her eyes, this so-called molecular cuisine is just a little trick to deceive people!

Moreover, the production process is much more complicated than many traditional dishes. As a result, it requires the use of some instruments and excessive attention to various factors such as duration, time, temperature, etc.!

This kind of thing where all the cooking work is left to the machine and then you don't have to do anything yourself is simply an extreme insult to the chef's professionalism.

Therefore, she has always been disdainful of molecular cuisine.

…

"Erina."

"伱...what do you mean?"

Alice was stunned on the spot when she heard Erina commenting on her molecular cuisine like this!

Thinking about my past, I finally made a cake for her to taste.

As a result, she behaved with the same disdain then as she does now, with the same attitude.

"really."

"You really haven't changed at all."

"Always act like a condescending queen in front of others and despise this or that kind of cuisine."

"I don't want to think about whether the noble cuisine you believe in can be recognized and liked by the public?"

Finally, Alice looked away feeling quite unhappy and said in a cold tone.

"I don't want to argue with you."

"Anyway, one day in the future, you and I will definitely have a Shokuge duel match. Then we will have a showdown!"

Erina's eyes tightened and she said calmly.

"Don't worry, I will defeat you by then." Alice was not to be outdone at this moment.

…

Two people.

Although her status is the noble eldest lady of the Nakiri family.

However, due to their different experiences, their personalities and cooking concepts are also completely different.

When it comes to cooking, Erina has always paid great attention to taste and texture because of her divine tongue, and she has always focused on the characteristics and practicality of each ingredient.

So she sneered at those low-grade civilian dishes!

Alice is different.

She is actually very tolerant and will not look down on any kind of cuisine.

However, due to her background and the influence of molecular cuisine, she has no knowledge of common people's knowledge and traditional cuisine.

During the Autumn Trials and Soma's PK showdown, she had a suspicious look on her face when she heard that the seaweed bento could be used, and she was in a state of complete ignorance, which clearly illustrates this problem.

And it is precisely because of her own shortcomings that her molecular cuisine is amazing every time she appears, but she just can't beat others.

yes!

That's right!

Erina really despises common people's cooking.

But this doesn't mean that she knows nothing about civilian cuisine.

On the contrary, in the entire Totsuki Academy, there is probably no one who knows civilian cuisine better than her.

Therefore, it is probably because the two people's cognition is not at the same level at all, so no matter how hard Alice tries, she is destined to never catch up with Erina!

…

A bottle of peach wine.

The concentration is not very high, but the fragrant and sweet smell of wine can spread far and wide.

At this moment, Mu Jiuzhiyuan Guo, who had not yet left, couldn't help but move his nose to smell the fragrance of the wine, and then took a sip in a state of intoxication.

When it enters the mouth, the faint aroma of wine instantly fills the entire tongue and sprays out of the nose at the same time.

It feels like smelling peach blossoms directly with your nose, but it can be less rich and more elegant.

Perhaps it was the combination of the aroma of wine and peach blossoms that made people feel more relaxed and happy, which caused Mujiuzhiengo to start to slowly exhale the smell of wine, which seemed very comfortable.

After that, she opened her eyes and looked at the two eldest ladies of the Nakiri family beside her with confusion.

It was really hard for her to understand why their relationship seemed so bad.

However, it was difficult for her to mediate this kind of thing as a middleman, so she simply pretended to be a "pure passerby".

Immediately afterwards, she took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Zhang Fan: "Owner, I think it would be better for you not to open an izakaya. With your wine-making skills, you will definitely make a lot of money by opening a winery!"
