Chapter 118: Fragrance Science

"It's close to glowing cuisine!"

The female special chef looked at her eyes and said slowly: "The taste of 'hot' is the essence of the heat, and you have a good grasp of it, but I may not be able to go further...... Then, there is the 'crisp' of ground soybeans. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info It also depends on the chef's control of the heat. Fry the bean custard in hot oil, and the taste will be different if you fry it for a second longer, and the ground soybean meat in your dish will be fried just right, perfect for the heat!"

Xia Yu nodded when he heard this.

The two flavors of 'hot' and 'crispy' of magic mapo tofu are to look at the heat. The [Burst Flame] technique and fire sense could completely help him firmly control these two essences.

"Here's the color ......"

Ryoko Rina looked down at the food.

The red of chili peppers, the white of tofu, and the green of garlic leaves are reflected in her black pupils, and all three colors are extremely gorgeous.

In addition, the beautiful appearance of frosted tofu also adds a lot of color to the dish.

"There are no flaws in the appearance!" she said.

An Yilun next to him also swallowed his saliva and said: "Yes, this kind of quality of cuisine, just looking at it, I can't be hungry." ”

Sakamoto just pushed the frame of his glasses and didn't speak, but his eyes were firmly locked on the tofu in the pot.

"It's a pity...... Ryoko Lina ate the next piece of tofu, but didn't eat the second piece, and the aftertaste mixed with the explosion in her mouth made her shake her head, and her voice was low: "The three flavors of 'fragrant', 'spicy' and 'numb' are not enough!"

"Huh?!"

Before the words fell, Ryoko Lina frowned suddenly, the seventh taste of the cuisine was actually after the 'spicy' of the pepper, the 'hemp' of the pepper, and the 'fragrant' taste brought by the green garlic and sauce, it was used in the mouth and dominated the taste buds!

"What a natural taste!"

The originally cold face rose two mysterious reds, Ryoko Lina's legs were weak, and she couldn't help but prop up her left hand on the table, her eyes were full of mist, "What's going on with this taste!"

"It's a very abrupt aftertaste, but it's treated like this......"

Ryoko Lina felt that she was walking in the manor where tuna soybeans were planted, and the wind blew the unique fragrance of the plant, so she couldn't help bending down to pick a piece of bright green soybean plants, tearing open the capsule, and a few plump soybeans that were yellow and white fell into the palm of her hand.

Lowering your head, taking a sip of it, the rich bean fragrance on your hands is like drinking a whole cup of thick soy milk for breakfast, and your body and mind are warm and satisfied.

"Huh......" Ryoko Lina's face changed slightly.

The bean fragrance was mixed with a hint of spiciness, her nose seemed to be on fire, she quickly opened her eyes, and the food illusion in her mind disappeared.

"There's no real fusion yet!" she stared at the mapo tofu on her plate, "because there was a flaw in the spice treatment...... Sanjiao, Sichuan pepper, and green garlic are actually spices with Chinese characteristics. Chinese spices, especially the use of chili peppers, are a must in the world. ”

It's a pity!

Ryoko Lina sighed slightly in her heart.

Her area of expertise is traditional Japanese cuisine, and her own taste is also preferring the light kind. Therefore, 'spice science' is not in her area of expertise, otherwise, Ryoko Rina feels that she should be able to give Xia Yu more guidance and improve the recipe together.

is different from Ryoko Lina's regret, Sakamoto and An Yilun also can't stop eating chopsticks.

"It's so spicy, it's so hot, it's so fragrant!" An Yilun also said vaguely, taking off his uniform jacket while eating, he was sweating all over, constantly hauling, and his face was flushed.

"It's rude!"

Sakamoto just unbuttoned a few buttons on his uniform and lowered his head slightly, the lenses reflective.

Soon, a large plate of food bottomed out, and all that remained on the plate was the red sauce.

An Yilun also drank the tea in the empty cup, but he still felt that his body was on fire, as if there was a melting pot hidden inside, and he moved involuntarily, jumping and jumping, as if he wanted to evacuate the heat through exercise.

Syllable!

A pair of palms suddenly slapped over, An Yilun also subconsciously stood and picked it up with both palms, and then, the four palms collided, making a crisp sound.

An Yilun also blinked and looked at the cool boy opposite.

"Let's push the hand sumo—"

Pushing the reflective glasses, Sakamoto squinted at An Yilun, that kind of sharp eyes, which made An Yilun also feel that this guy was indescribably handsome, and he couldn't hate it in his heart.

Then, what is pusher sumo? An Yilun was also stunned.

Sakamoto stood still, his left palm slapped again, An Yilun didn't think, raised his hand to block, and his palms collided again.

After coming several times in a row, An Yilun also felt Mo Ming's comfort, and the fire ball in his body that could not be dispersed seemed to be vented from the collision of palms through this fierce sumo sport.

So the two of them formed a world of their own, and in a corner of the storefront, you came and went, doing a sumo wrestling muscle duel full of middle two atmosphere.

Ryoko Rina looked amused, and the corners of her lips curled playfully, "Is this the daily life of a male high school student?"

"Don't knock over a boatload of people with a stick. I'm normal. Xia Yu rolled her eyes.

Simply ignoring the two people, Xia Yu held his chin, he had just tasted his own food, and he also tasted the flaws in the treatment of 'spicy', 'hemp', 'fragrant' and tofu aftertaste.

The problem can be summed up as follows: his use of spices is not enough!

The spice equation in cuisine has not really been constructed.

In other words, it was a failure.

"Failed!"

For this result, Xia Yu was not surprised.

"Is there any way to improve your spice skills quickly?" he asked Ryoko Lina.

"Fragrance science, in fact, is also empirical science, the most basic thing is to identify the thousands of spices commonly used in the world, not only to remember the names of spices, but also to know their tastes, usages and taboos. ”

Ryoko Lina said, glancing at him with regretful eyes, obviously knowing Xia Yu's thoughts, she shook her head and said, "The foundation of spice science, without two or three years, cannot be started. On top of that, it's an advanced collocation application. However, you must know that spices, like food, are full of strong regional styles. ”

"For example, Chinese spices, star anise, fennel, cardamom, chili, tangerine peel, white peony, monk fruit, etc., have involved the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine herbs, and the regional characteristics also lie in the use of herbs and spices. ”

"Indian spices, curry is the most well-known, and the others, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper and white pepper, actually have a lot of overlap with Chinese spices. In the gastronomic world, there is a saying that the world's best spices are in India. If you have traveled to India, you may find in a spice market that there are more than 20 kinds of fennel alone, with different sizes, colors, fragrances, and usages. ”

In the end, Ryoko Rina sighed lightly: "You are starting to get into spices now, and you are learning from scratch, it's a little late......"

Her heart began to waver.

The time required to improve the recipe of "Magic Mapo Tofu" is probably calculated in years.

The recipe is in Xia Yu's place, and Ryoko Lina hasn't tried it, but she can't make the glowing magic mapo tofu anyway, so she can only hope for Xia Yu's own improvement, and she can only help a little.

Perhaps, I am looking for another way to become the 'Chef Lin'?" Ryoko Rina thought to herself.
