Yokohama Cuisine Event Book

After a simple draw, the themes of the three groups of duels were quickly determined.

The theme of Teruji Kuga and Eiji Si is green tea, Tosuke Megijima and Rindo Kobayashi are chili peppers, and Alice Nakiri of the third group draws what Kinoko Ning Ning is best at—— buckwheat.

Compared to the shock and worry of her companions and the joy of Center supporters, Alice herself showed a slightly mischievous expression after a short thought.

After retrieving the ingredients from the warehouse, the girl unhurriedly started the unpredictable cooking process like a laboratory operation, and even pulled out her hand to support her companions.

"—That's right, it's you, Kawashima-san. Anyway, you don't have anything to do, right? Then come here and help me show this to Hisa-senpai."

The white girl in front of the cooking counter raised her petite chin, and with a wonderfully arrogant tone that made it hard to be disgusted, she directed the host on the stage to run errands for her.

"?"

The host who was inciting the students to cheer for the Center was stunned, pointing at himself in disbelief, "Me?"

"Yes."

Seeing her being so dishonest, the second young lady of the Nakiri family pouted displeasedly, and urged: "Why are you still standing there, I'm very busy—!"

Off the court, Erina helplessly covered her forehead.

"Alice..."

She sighed, "Isn't she worried that the other party will do bad things to her things?"

Gan Cha gave her a strange look.

"Thoughts are so dark, Erina."

"...Who taught this!" The blond girl glared at her.

In the middle of the venue, Jiuga Zhaoji grabbed a transparent glass bottle from the bewildered host, and said happily, "Thank you, Nakiri!"

The boy opened the bottle cap and happily poured all the black liquid into the Chinese style wok.Under the raging fire, the salty freshness with the fresh tea fragrance immediately spread in the venue.

"That's green tea soy sauce!"

Watching Alice humming and putting away the grinder and Dewar bottles, someone recalled the scene during the autumn selection, and suddenly realized, "It's the same way Ebiza handled Earl Grey sake when desserts were served!"

Freeze high-concentration tea with liquid nitrogen, break it up and mix it with soy sauce——

"To make that soy sauce, there are actually many other methods, such as distillation and purification, or smoking."

Watching the situation in the arena, Takomi said, "The reason why she chose this method is to pay tribute to Hai Laoze."

Moreover, guessing the needs of your companions and providing support - isn't this what the girl taught everyone with her own actions in training again and again?

Everyone's attention has not been withdrawn from Alice and Kuga, and there is also a very eye-catching scene where the two of Chili confront each other.

Kobayashi Rindou and Megijima Tosuke poured a large amount of chili into the kitchen utensils in front of them one after another.Following the heroic movements of the two, the pungent breath overbearingly covered up the previous refreshing and salty fragrance, and the venue seemed to be filled with fiery red waves visible to the naked eye.

Not far away, Alice, who was holding a dropper and a glass test tube, puffed up her face.

"What." She blocked the mouth of the test tube, "Don't let the diffused capsaicin sneak into Miss Ben's test tube."

In the spectator seats, Gan Cha turned his face with a little worry, and looked at the silver-haired boy beside him who was covering his nose with an uncomfortable expression.

"Ye Shanjun," she pulled out a tissue, handed it over, and asked with concern, "Do you feel okay?"

"Ah, it's all right—thanks."

Ye Shan responded, but when he took the tissue, he accidentally grabbed the girl's fingertips.

The tenderness and tenderness that can be parted at the touch of a touch remains in the palm for a long time.

His thoughts were inexplicably interrupted for a moment, and the boy subconsciously wanted to take a deep breath to calm his overactive heartbeat—then he was immediately brought back to his senses by the pungent smell that poured in.

Even if he stopped his movements in time, the boy with an extraordinary sense of smell was still choked and almost coughed.

Gan Cha gave him a sympathetic look.

Think of Jono-san and Erina--too sensitive is sometimes not a good thing.

Halfway through the competition, Ji Zhiguo Ningning took the lead to complete the cooking, and presented a perfect traditional cold buckwheat to the three judges from the World Gourmet Association "WGO".

Seeing the three people full of praise, Alice smiled proudly, picked up her work, and walked onto the stage.

"……What is that?"

The students followed the girl in the white coat with their eyes in bewilderment, "Is it really cooking?"

However, although it is completely impossible to analyze the contents of the plate, one thing is particularly obvious——

"What a nice view……!"

In the center of the pure white deep-mouthed porcelain plate, in the circular container, clear and transparent clear soup flows down the three-story pagoda, like a small fountain.

Surrounded by colorful flowers, especially dewdrops, with the girl's movements, the thin petals that seem to be able to transmit light are still trembling slightly, as if there is a breeze blowing.

It doesn't look like cooking, but like a garden full of flowers.

"Is this the work of the Goddess of Molecular Cuisine, a member of the Gourmet Demon King family?"

Looking at the dishes in front of him with admiring eyes, Shelm, the second-rank executive officer of WGO, sighed: "It's amazing, I've already begun to look forward to it—but how to taste this dish?"

"Please soak the surrounding flowers in the hot soup for a while, and then you can enjoy it with the soup."

Alice made a playful gesture of invitation, and continued, "Of course, you can also eat these flowers directly, that is the flavor of cold buckwheat—but, I think you all traveled thousands of miles to the venue in winter, and used Ji Zhi After eating the cooking of the seniors in the country, you should want to eat something warm first, right?"

Hearing her words, the judges were startled, and then couldn't help laughing in agreement.

The first-class executive sitting in the main seat said, "Before tasting, I have a question."

"Without a heating device—"

The young woman pointed to the miniature fountain in the center of the porcelain plate, and was a little puzzled, "The clear soup flows through the pipes in the tower and circulates continuously. Isn't it easy to dissipate heat? It still maintains the temperature of constantly bubbling hot air. How do you do it?" Arrived?"

"The secret is in the container."

Alice laughed brightly, and explained, "During the bento match with Kohei-kun, I learned that a bento box that uses the heat of the food on the lower layer to heat the soup on the upper layer has been developed—it's really good. technology."

"In the warehouse, I also found a similar product - you can see, under the soup container, there is a sandwich. I put hot food in it. Although the container is not sealed, in a short time It is enough to keep the temperature of the soup."

"I see!"

Ann nodded, and picked up the chopsticks with her companion.

On the large screen hanging above the venue, Ji Zhiguo Ningning's name dimmed, and the number "3" was impressively displayed next to the bright "Nakiri Alice" on the other side.

——The three judges agreed and decided that the Rebel Alliance won.

"Miss Nakiri's cuisine is not only delicious, but also an innovation of Japanese buckwheat culture."

The executives commented, "Even we didn't expect that soba noodles could be presented in such a way——!"

In the buckwheat-themed duel, the loser was actually the heir of the Kinoko Kingdom who had been running a soba noodle shop since the Edo period. With such a result, not only Kinoko himself, but also the love for Alice in the field. It is very difficult for students who are already mentally prepared to accept it.

"Senior Kinokuni really considered all the factors that can affect the deliciousness of soba noodles."

Standing in the center of the silent stage, facing the unbelievable Ji Zhiguo, Alice said,

"The proportion of flour, the moisture content of the dough, and the influence of the temperature in the venue on the diffusion of aroma molecules—in the traditional sense, the soba noodles of the predecessors are indeed impeccable."

"However, my cooking is more than that—!"

Her cooking includes her breakthrough of the so-called positive solution she once held, as well as the results of exchanges with her companions.

The fountain in the center is to put the shells of sea prawns and other crustaceans rich in umami essence into a steam convection oven, and then air-dry them to enhance the umami ingredients such as glycine, arginine and proline, so that they can be consumed in a short period of time. A very delicious broth is brewed in a short time.

For the surrounding flowers, the buckwheat dough is cut into needles, and then flattened and cut again to build petals with fine texture.

The dewdrops dotted on it are part of the prepared sauce that is centrifuged to separate the pigment, obtain a clear liquid with flavor, and then solidify the finished product with sodium alginate; the other part uses solid-phase microextraction technology. The aroma components of buckwheat are extracted and prepared into a liquid, which is also solidified into popcorn to enhance the buckwheat aroma of the dish.

"My molecular cuisine combines Liangjun's seafood cooking techniques, Ye Shanjun's aroma bombs, and Xingping Jun's creativity. The initial consideration is the precise analysis of Gancha's daily needs for diners."

——And what she taught, the prediction of the opponent.

"By the way, although Erina said that it was done by a robot, in my opinion, such considerations also come from caring for others."

"Our Rebel Alliance, everyone's food—"

Ruby-like eyes glanced at the stunned students in the auditorium, and Alice proudly announced, "After discussing and researching with each other, it's no longer the kind of food that each person cooks alone!"

Her gaze finally fell on the purple-haired girl in the center of the crowd.

Alice's words are not only a declaration to all Center supporters, but also to someone who wants to see Yuanyue's changes, loves the atmosphere of equality and freedom, and wants to leave.

——Starting from our side, Yuanyue is different from before!

Stared at by such bright eyes, Gan Cha was startled, and slowly lowered his eyelashes, but the corners of his lips raised unconsciously.

"What." The girl's voice was inaudible, as if complaining, but with a bit of joy, "Alice, so I didn't give up."

Seeing the smile on the girl's lips like the spring breeze blowing over a branch, the white girl snorted happily in her heart—Erina, you are still far away.

She withdrew her gaze, turned her head, and looked at the man in black with a dark complexion sitting on a high place.

"Uncle Ji."

Alice used honorifics in a well-mannered manner, but her words were extremely provocative, "Unfortunately, your perfect first victory was ruined by me."

"...Then, congratulations, Alice."

Sitting in the shadows, Nakiri Jiji's eyes were deep, and he still maintained a gentle demeanor, "However, your two seniors will not have such good luck."

However, even though Si Yingshi and Kobayashi Randian won the victory as he wished, seeing the exhausted two people and the opposition party who was getting more and more fighting spirit——they walked out of the spectator seats and greeted them with joyful expressions. Looking at the returning companions, as if the failures of the other two groups did not exist.

On the way back to the meeting room through the unlit corridor, in a place where there was no one around, Nakiri Jito lowered his face and bit his black-gloved thumb with displeasure.

The author has something to say: Team eating halberds is a boy's resistance to power, and it is also a large-scale strategy for everyone to use gancha sauce. Everyone is writing love letters with cooking www

But it won’t be written every game. The real food described is only 0.5x2+1, and buckwheat is half of it.
