[Comprehensive] The hero Fu Jiang is always doing things

The moment he heard the theme of the competition, Jiuga Zhaoji couldn't help blowing his whistle, spicy is his specialty.

When he was going to get the ingredients, he saw Tomie Kawakami saying something to the pretentious host, and then the host was stunned, and asked the staff related to the food halberd next to him.

"...Yes, please wait a moment, the staff will give you that ingredient."

oh?Requesting additional ingredients?

Kuga Teruki glanced at the ingredients section, and because the theme is spicy, he prepared a variety of chili peppers.

Spicy chicken?Boiled pork slices?Or his specialty dish, mapo tofu?

For a long time, I shifted my eyes to a kind of green long pepper. Oh, the color of this sharp pepper is very good.

He had an idea, so he might as well make fried pork.

This dish itself is very simple, and it can be said to be an entry-level Sichuan dish, but like mapo tofu, the more so-called seemingly simple dishes, the more it will test the skill of the chef.

Especially in the step of removing the fishy smell, many people think that with the spicy base, they can overcome the smell of meat, so they are sloppy in removing the fishy smell, resulting in the final product always having an unhealthy taste.

Jiu Izhaoji has quick eyes and quick hands, and picked a piece of pork belly with even layers and oily color. The next step is the focus of spiciness. He has been cooking spicy for so many years, so he is naturally an expert in choosing chili.

At this time, I went to Chuankami Tomie with my mind, only to find that a staff member was wearing white gloves and put a glass jar on his cooking table.

He couldn't help raising his eyebrows, yo, it turns out that this guy also plans to cook Sichuan cuisine.

Is this going to confront him head-on?

Can't tell, she has a pretty face, but she looks very bloody!

in the audience.

Xing Ping Chuangzhen asked enthusiastically, "Hey, what's in that glass jar?"

Shi Xin said, "It's pickled peppers."

"What is pickled pepper?" Kurokiba Ryo asked.

Nakiri Alice shook her index finger and said: "Pickled peppers are a unique seasoning of Sichuan cuisine. The main ingredients are all kinds of peppers. The ingredients are peppercorns, star anise, and salt. Put them in the pickle jar, add cold boiled water, and then seal it well. , It can be used as a seasoning when it is marinated and matured."

The three chefs present have never used this material much, so they are all guessing what Kawakami Tomie is going to do.

Nakiri Alice said: "Well, for pickled peppers, I have eaten pickled pepper fish~" She stuck out her tongue, "But it's too sweet."

And the taste is super super super super - super strange!She drank a lot of mineral water without recovering from the strange taste!

There was a rare fluctuation in Shi Xin's expression, and he looked at the girl in shock, "Sweet, why is it sweet?"

Nakiri Alice looked at her blankly, "Because... blueberry jam was added, right?"

blueberry jam?

Pickled fish?

Shi Xin rubbed his forehead and asked, "Where did you eat?"

Nakiri Alice: "A country's China Town."

Shi Xin covered her face, "If it's a normal fish with pickled peppers, it should be mainly spicy. Usually, some sugar is added, but the main function is to enhance the freshness, and it won't overwhelm the guests so that the whole dish is sweet."

After realizing that what she was eating was the "improved version" of pickled pepper flavor, Nakiri Alice immediately regained her spirits, "Hey, that means I can still look forward to Tomie-senpai's cooking~"

Xing Ping Chuangzhen watched the cooking competition on the field, "However, both of them chose pork instead of fish."

"Pork?" Kurokiba Ryo said, "Since the ingredients are of the same kind, the spicy taste is what we are fighting for."

Nakiri Alice held her face, and said leisurely, "Spicy taste is actually a kind of pain, not taste. When we use hot pepper, the capsaicin it contains stimulates the cells, thus forming a burning sensation in the cerebral cortex." kind of exciting."

Xing Ping Chuangzhen nodded, "No wonder the last time I gave 'Chocolate Indian Pepper' to other people, they cried straight away."

Think about it, I thought I was eating a chocolate bar, but I took a bite, and the spiciness hit my brain, which is simply a kind of "enjoyment".

Nakiri Alice: "..."

Kurokiba Ryo: "..."

Nakiri Alice: "Your friend has such a good temper."

If someone dared to feed her that kind of thing, she'd better let Mr. Liang beat him to death.

While chatting, the dishes of the two chefs on the field were almost coming to an end.

Shi Xin said suddenly, "It's fish-flavored shredded pork."

Only then did Xing Ping Chuangzhen realize that Shi Xin's indifferent look just now was because he was watching what Fu Jiang's cuisine was doing.

Well, Kawakami, it seems that you are not hot either.

For some reason, he felt a sense of relief, and was shocked by Shi Xin's words, "However, Fu Jiang's fish-flavored shredded pork has only been made once."

Xingping Chuangzhen: "Huh?"

Shi Xin continued: "Although I've finished eating," she judged with a serious face, "but the taste of the fish-flavored shredded pork is probably the same as that of Chuang Zhenjun's 'chocolate Indian pepper' and Alice's 'blueberry'." Sauce and pickled pepper fish' a level."

For some reason, Xing Ping Chuangzhen felt that he had been shot in the knee.

Nakiri Alice covered her mouth, leaned on Kurokiba Ryo's hand, and whispered: "No, don't remind me of that dish."

Kurokiba Ryo said calmly: "Ah, quite courageous."

After all, it is to put the failed product on the stage of food halberd.

The two opponents finish cooking at the same time.

The judges first tasted the dishes of Teruki Kuga.

"Small fried pork?" The man wearing black-rimmed glasses had a friendly face. He was Yuanyue's teacher in charge of teaching Chinese food, and he had studied in a first-class hotel in country Z.

Chinese food pays attention to complete color, flavor and taste. First of all, look at the appearance. Jiuga Zhaoji’s knife skills are quite good. The peeled pork belly is cut into just right slices along the text, and the peppers are cut into sections obliquely, which is more convenient and tasty.

The second is the heat. The fatty layer of the meat shrinks in the stir-fry over medium heat. At this moment, the meat is golden and transparent, which is extremely attractive.

He picked up a piece of meat and tasted it.

The fried pork belly is quite wonderful, with a little crispiness, which adds to the complexity of the taste. When the spicy taste touches the mouth, it dominates all the senses.

Be it ginger, scallion, or garlic, all seasonings have become supporting roles in the face of this direct spicy taste.

That's right, on this stage, only spicy is the only protagonist, it is the master of everything!

The judges were all hit by this pure and direct hotness, and couldn't stop at all.

"I really want to have white rice!"

"That's right, and a beer would be better."

"Ah, this is obviously so hot, why can't I stop!"

Kuga Teruki crossed his arms and glanced at Tomie Kawakami, only to find that this guy didn't look at the judges' seat at all, and looked at the auditorium opposite him very openly.

Kuga Teruki: "..."

Hehe, this made him want to beat someone even more than a frontal provocation.

Just as Jiuga was grinding his teeth according to Ji, the judge who finally stopped wiped his mouth and let Tomie Kawakami present the dishes.

When witnessing that dish, Jiuga Teruki frowned, "Fish-flavored shredded pork?"

This dish...

The judges with black-rimmed glasses also raised their eyebrows, "Fish-flavored shredded pork, this dish is a bit difficult."

Mapo tofu and fish-flavored shredded pork are both dishes that test whether a Sichuan chef is competent.

However, the test of the former is whether a simple dish can be authentically spicy, while the test of the latter is whether it can complicate the spicy taste.

Because of this, it can be said that there are only two possibilities for the taste of a fish-flavored shredded pork, which is so delicious that you can't make it yourself, or - so bad that you want to take revenge on the chef.

The appearance of this fish-flavored shredded pork is still very passable, worthy of the beauty of its creator.

As for the taste, he stroked his glasses, glanced at Tomie Kawakami with a bored face, and decided to abide by his judge ethics, and took a bite.

After taking the first bite, the three judges all said "huh" at the same time.

The first judge to speak murmured, "... dancing."

The host has long been accustomed to the various descriptions and performances of the food judges, and said with a smile: "You can describe..."

The judge with black-rimmed glasses quickly said: "That's right, he is dancing. Chopped pickled pepper is the main dancer, but he didn't deprive the other dancers of their presence because of his beauty. Sweet and sour is the best soulmate. Yan, as always, overwhelmed the line, but her elegant demeanor not only added color to the main dance, but also showed her own beauty and soy sauce..."

host:"……"

Fortunately, the last judge commented in human terms, "In short, every condiment in this dish is just right."

"Do you know why spicy plays an important role in cooking?"

"Just the capsaicin kick? Of course not."

"Because it is a rather wonderful seasoning, it gains its own sense of existence by hurting the sense of taste, but it also makes the sense of taste more sensitive, and the eater can enjoy the richer taste of the food."

He looked at Teruki Kuga, "Kuga-kun's 'Small Stir-Fried Pork' tastes pretty good, and the spiciness is a well-deserved protagonist in your dish, but," he shook his head, "Because of this, it seems monotonous."

The judges pointed to Tomie Kawakami’s dishes and said, “But in this dish, although the pickled peppers stand out, they don’t completely cover up other flavors, but form a more complex flavor together with the rest of the cooking.”

"But even if it is not purely spicy, it has become a more complex spicy flavor."

"In his dishes, no one is a real supporting role, and all the ingredients bring themselves to the fullest."

"So, I think this halberd eating is the victory of Tomie Kawakami."

Obviously, the other two judges also agreed with his words. They failed in the spicy taste that they were proud of. Jiu Wo Zhaoji was naturally unwilling. He walked up and looked at the Chinese food teacher he was familiar with. have a bite?"

The man with black-rimmed glasses made a bitter face, and finally gave up under the boy's piercing eyes, and gave up his share of fish-flavored shredded pork.

Jiu I Zhaoji frowned, and went down in one gulp.

The first thing that strikes the palate is——

hot?

No, not spicy?

It should be sweet...

No, there is vinegar in the sweetness.

How can this be described?

- Fish scent.

Correct.

The aroma that should be brought out by cooking fish, in this dish, can be combined only by spices.

Spicy, sweet, sour, salty, too much or too little of any one flavor will ruin the dish and make it a "four different".

However, the cook has a good grasp of the degree, so that the four flavors are perfectly blended together and become a brand new taste.

Indeed, it has more flavor than his monotonous spicy taste.

He has studied spicy food for so long, and unknowingly, he was too rigid about "authentic", but he forgot that Sichuan cuisine's exploration of spicy food has never stopped at a single spicy taste.

Jiu I messed up my forehead hair according to Ji, and let out a "tsk", there is no doubt that he lost.

After the evaluations of the three judges came out, the host announced Tomie Kawakami's victory, "Correspondingly, the winner will get the seat of 'Top Ten'."

After a long time, I took a deep breath according to Ji, and thought about it carefully, whether I should take the style of generously giving way later, or take the second style of not saying defeat.

He raised his eyes to look at the auditorium, Ji Zhiguo Ningning pushed his glasses and smiled mockingly at him.

Jiu Wozhaoji rolled up his sleeves and gritted his teeth, it was so embarrassing, ahhh, he could completely think of the other party's ridicule later.

"Next, Kawakami-kun, please tell me..." The host's voice suddenly paused, "Hey, Chuan, Kawakami-kun?"

After a long time, I looked over according to the rules and found that Tomie Kawakami walked directly to the host, took the microphone, and said, "I won."

He pointed to the auditorium, "So, Shi Xinxin, look, I have won the top ten who are good at Sichuan cuisine, what does that mean?"

Jiu Wo Zhaoji looked confused, what does that mean?And who is Shi Xinxin?Which Chef's name?

Tomie Chuankami said triumphantly: "It means that I am the one who cooks the best Sichuan cuisine in Yuanyue, so Shi Xinxin, you can only eat my dishes!"

After speaking, he threw the microphone into the host's arms, and ran towards the target auditorium at an astonishing speed.

"Shi Xinxin, am I amazing!?"

"Those who are not top ten, don't sit next to my Xinxin!"

"Heart of Stone..."

Kuga Teruki: "..."

With a stiff face, he looked at Ji Zhiguo Ningning who was sitting on it, pointed there, gritted his teeth and said, "Did I lose to him?"

Ji Zhiguo Ning Ning stroked his glasses. It was rare that he didn't go back directly with sarcasm. He considered his tone and said, "You know, the better the cooking skills, the weirder the personality..."

Jiuga Zhaoji covered his chest, inhaled and exhaled.

Yes, he can't be angry, he has to be generous——

"Shi Xinxin begs for a hug, begs to be held high!"

- What a ghost!

For the first time, Jiuga Zhaoji felt "what kind of experience is it to be won by a strange flower".

"I! Absolutely! Yes! To! Win! Come back! Come!" he roared.

Seeing the fire of cooking in the young man's heart blazing, Ji Zhiguo twitched the corner of his mouth, this is also a good thing... I guess.

The author has something to say: It’s an exaggeration to get revenge on the cook because of the unpalatable food...

Although in terms of some fish-flavored pork shreds I have eaten, I do want to get revenge on the chef :)
