Unlike the commoner cuisine, which was eaten by the common people, the court cuisine prepared for the aristocratic royal family had extremely demanding requirements in all aspects.
First of all, the selection of ingredients, for the emperor who is the ruler of the country, those ordinary people may be rare in their lives to see the luxury ingredients is nothing more than an order, so the palace cuisine compared to other cuisines in terms of ingredients may occupy a great advantage, it can be free to choose the folk cooking raw materials, tribute from all over the famous and high-quality local products, all kinds of delicacies and seafood, you can choose, therefore, the rich ingredients of the imperial dining room has always been the most ideal cooking place in the hearts of ancient chefs, the luxury of high-end ingredients dare to use who knows。 Of course, sometimes in order to adjust the taste, the court cuisine also uses some common folk ingredients, but the fineness of its cooking techniques and the luxury of the accessories make it difficult to compare with folk cuisine.
In addition to the preciousness of the raw materials, it goes without saying that the complexity of the cooking process of the palace cuisine is not to mention, and behind the processing process that makes people dizzy just by looking at it is the meticulous study of the imperial chefs. Well, the dishes prepared for the emperor, who dares not to care, it will be a head.
In addition, generally speaking, court cuisine is very particular about plastic arts, how can the emperor eat the same dishes as ordinary people?
In order to achieve this, the chef's skillful knife skills are the basic skills, excellent food carving skills and plating skills are also necessary, in addition, the color matching between the ingredients must also be coordinated, and the beautiful meaning behind the shape must also be indispensable.
Well, all in all, the average excellent imperial chef should have an artist's heart, and those chefs who are good at court cuisine are like doing art when they make a dish.
In ancient times, countries were basically feudal dynasties, so palace cuisine was generally available in all countries, and because imperial chefs were generally served by top chefs, court cuisine often represented the highest level of cuisine in various countries.
The most precious and rare ingredients, the best chefs, the best cooking processes, the most beautiful dishes, and finally the most luxurious tableware, all these things create the court cuisine.
It is no wonder that some people say that the process of tasting court cuisine is not only the process of enjoying the food, but also the process of experiencing the world's most noble and rare dishes.
This is the theme of the White Night and Erina Nagikiri, the royal cuisine - a gorgeous and unparalleled dish.
And this theme couldn't be worse for White Night.
There is no way, who makes Bai Ye a poor man? Palace cuisine sounds awesome, but its expensive cost is enough to discourage ordinary chefs, after all, any cuisine needs to be practiced, except for those peerless geniuses who are rare in a hundred years, who can guarantee that they can learn it at one time? Even if you learn it at one time, you still need to practice if you want to learn well, and practice is bound to waste ingredients, and it is acceptable to grit your teeth if you waste ordinary ingredients, but the ingredients of court cuisine are ......
Well, a cuisine that only local tyrants can afford.
Although the predecessor was born in a big family, as a concubine with a low status, his life can only be regarded as well-off, and it is okay to learn ordinary cooking skills, but he really can't afford to learn this kind of money-burning thing like court cuisine.
Therefore, when he saw the cooking theme on the note, Bai Ye's heart was broken, and he drew the theme that should not be drawn the most.
"Madan, my face is also black to a certain level, there are so many themes for me to smoke, how did I just draw such a thing? ”
Speechlessly, looking at the hand he had just drawn, Bai Ye's face turned a little dark.
As Erina Nagikiri announced the start of the halberd, the dome between the moon and the sky opened, and through the glass canopy, everyone in the venue could clearly see the slowly rising moon.
Between the moon and the sky, as the name suggests, the time spent cooking at this venue is calculated by the moon, and the halberd eats at the moment when you see the moon through the dome, and when you see the moon moving westward, the halberd ends when you can't see it.
And watching the bright moon in the sky slowly climbing, Bai Ye was so anxious, but he couldn't think of what to cook for a while.
"Madan, I feel like I think, it's a bit embarrassing to lose without a fight. ”
White Night racked his brains and began to remember.
On the other hand, Erina Nagikiri's cooking went very smoothly.
is different from the poor man of White Night, Erina Nagi can be said to be a local tyrant, and she really hasn't lacked money. Not to mention how the Nagi family is a tyrant or anything for the time being, just the amount of money earned by Erina Nagi who uses the Tongue of God to help major celebrity chefs taste the dishes is already an astronomical amount, so the consumption of palace materials is really nothing to Erina Nagikiri.
Not to mention that Erina Nagikiri's cooking style has always pursued nobility and gorgeousness, and what kind of cuisine in this world can be more noble and gorgeous than palace cuisine? Therefore, court cuisine can be said to be a cuisine that Erina Nagikiri is quite good at, and she can easily find a lot of recipes that fit this theme.
And in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Erina Nagi also specially took out a recipe at the bottom of the box this time, which is a rhythm that does not give White Night a chance to turn the tables at all.
"Well, it tastes good. ”
The soup was boiling in the pot and was going to be used later, Erina Nagikiri tasted the taste, and then looked up at the white night who was still motionless and meditating, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she felt that this was stable.
"Hehe, Lecturer Bai, you just obediently wait for me to call for a month. ”
…………
At this time, the performance of the two in the ring also made the onlookers noisy.
"Wow, it's really Erina-sama, this confident and calm appearance is really charming. ”
"Wow, what a showdown of court cuisine, what a luxury. ”
"Tut-tut, that White Yasha is unlucky this time, and he will actually draw the dishes that Eri-sama is best at, alas, this character is no one. ”
"Hey, why is that White Yasha still motionless, could it be that he has already given up treatment. ”
"I'll go, that bastard can't be asleep. ”
………………
Bai Ye's motionlessness made the students in the audience very puzzled, even those who were more familiar with Bai Ye.
"Senior Bai, what's the matter? Eh, don't you know how to cook at the palace?"
Tian Sue thought that Bai Ye had to bargain for a long time every time she went to the old woman's place to buy vegetables, and she felt that she seemed to understand something.
"Is this guy going to lose?"
Beside Megumi Tanaso, Kohei Chuangzhen clasped her hands, a little unwilling, in her opinion, the white night should be defeated by her.
