Chapter 298: Galaxy!
Silence is better than sound. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the shock, everyone found that this time the light of the noodle bowl was not a flash of surprise, but a long time of flickering, which was completely different from the light of the cooking that would be missed if you didn't pay attention to it in the past.
However, there are changes in the cuisine.
The black soup in the bowl is not as deep as it was at the beginning, like the universe of surging dark matter.
To put it simply, the universe has awakened to the present dormant, leaving only the unchanged galaxy dotted on the black curtain, fluorescent and shining, exuding its own unique charm in the darkness and firmly attracting everyone's attention.
Even the two big guys, Hiroshi Akiyama and Nagi Senzaemon, their eyes were brightened by the starlight, and there was a kind of admiration and appreciation clearly written in their eyes.
"Food is more than just taste," says Hiroshi Akiyama.
"Of course!"
Nagi Senzaemon said, "The beauty of food is also a science. Decoration, carving, etc., the significance of these courses is also to cultivate students' aesthetic awareness of food. ”
"Color, fragrance, shape, and meaning. ”
Maas said slowly, "Aside from 'meaning' and 'nourishment', Chinese chefs put 'shape' in the same important position as 'color', 'fragrance' and 'taste', which is enough to explain the problem." The so-called beauty of food and appearance are also the most straightforward difference between delicacies and popular cuisine. ”
"The so-called tasting of food, the appearance is also a kind of tasting!"
Half a day.
Erina Nagikiri let go of the palms that overlapped her mouth, and her beautiful eyes stared at Xia Yu, her eyes shining in the dark, like stars, brighter than the Milky Way in a bowl.
“…… What kind of pasta is this?" she asked in a faint voice.
"Milky Way Side!"
A smiling voice replied at the same time, snapped, the electric brake was pulled up, and the kitchen was brightly lit in an instant.
Swish.
The magnificent beauty of the Milky Way in the bowl also disappeared.
Everyone has regrets and reluctance, but more is a strong curiosity.
"Hey, there's still light in the bowl!"
Kobayashi Gentian said in surprise.
Yes, under the light, the surface of the black soup of the bowl is still floating with speckled dust and chips.
"I see!"
Ryoko Lina, who had been silent, suddenly said at this time: "It's edible pearl powder!"
"Does pearl powder shine?"
Tokyo Governor Yuriko Tamagawa was surprised.
She is a mature woman who is often exposed to jewelry, cosmetics, and of course knows the true form of pearl powder. A whole pearl shines because the surface of the pearl is covered with a smooth layer of gum, which is also the most valuable nacre.
So actually, pearl powder has no luminous effect.
So, to be precise, it's the crumbs of the surface of the pearl, which sparkle in the black broth!
Yuriko Tamagawa explained to everyone with a smile.
Xia Yu just smiled and didn't refute.
"Please taste, Your Excellency Akiyama—" Handing over another pair of clean chopsticks, Xia Yu turned sideways and motioned for Akiyama Hiroshi to serve the bowl and taste it.
At this moment, the eyes of the four women present, Erina, Kobayashi Gentian, Ryoko Rina and Tamagawa Yuriko, all became complicated, and they looked at Akiyama Hiroshi with a faint sense of envy and jealousy.
Such a beautiful pasta, if you can eat it in one go, it must be refreshing, right?
Chefs, or gourmets, of course, think of eating.
In a sense, their appetite has completely overwhelmed their love for beautiful objects. But it can also be said in another way, eating it is the highest respect for this beauty!
Chopsticks!
Akiyama Hiroshi obviously had a similar mood, and without dragging his feet, he immediately put down his chopsticks and scooped up a full circle of noodles from the jet-black soup.
"Whoosh"
When he sucked it in, the pliable noodles immediately filled his mouth, and the black soup stuck to his lips, and Akiyama Hiroshi didn't have time to wipe it off, his bulging cheeks were twitching, and his hand holding chopsticks trembled slightly.
"Squid Ink!"
Akiyama Hiroshi widened his eyes and said, "The main ingredient of the soup must be cuttlefish juice! It tastes so fresh! The original abrupt faint smell of medicinal herbs has been completely removed!"
"Ah......h
As soon as he finished speaking, he shook his whole body, propped his left hand on the kitchen counter, and muttered, "What an incredible taste frenzy!"
The cuttlefish ink is just the first explosive in the mouth.
Immediately afterwards, onions, garlic, chicken bones, pork bones, and other ingredients used in the first soup set off a second wave of charging horns on the tip of his tongue, and his taste buds were electrocuted at this time, and he felt a kind of paralysis.
But the charge continued.
"Boom"
The umami hidden in the black soup completely exploded.
Shrimp heads, clams, bonito.
Dried scallops, kelp (kelp), dried silverfish.
There are too many ingredients from the ocean, and after they are boiled, the essence is all condensed into a thick soup, forming a third soup, which merges with the first two soups, which is the furious trio of soups!
What is it that twists the triple soup into one strand and invades Chef Lin's palate?
Spices!
The spices play a lubricating role in the fused soup, so when the tip of the tongue sets off a triple frenzy before and after, and the whole body is electrocuted and convulsed, Akiyama Hiroshi does not feel a trace of abruptness, but instead his body and mind have fallen, and his expression is blank.
After a long time, Akiyama Hiroshi opened his eyes, turned his head to look at the smiling young man, and exhaled: "The unique taste of cuttlefish juice, sweet and mellow, has been brought to the extreme by you, this is the first taste!"
"If I'm not mistaken, you used a Western sauce technique to improve the taste of the cuttlefish juice?" he said.
"Yes!"
It's a conversation between two people, and the others are just spectators, unsavored, and don't understand the doorway.
Xia Yu replied like a stream: "I chop the garlic and onion into minced pieces, heat the pan with melted butter, boil the minced garlic and onion until soft, then pour in some white wine, boil the alcohol dry, and then pour in the cuttlefish juice and mix it with three kinds of soup to cook!"
"No wonder!"
Akiyama Hiroshi exclaimed: "The fishy smell of cuttlefish juice, the smell of medicinal herbs, is completely gone!"
Beside him, listening to Xia Yu's answer, Erina Nagikiri suddenly thought of the halberd in the underground kitchen that night during the residential study.
At that time, Kojiro Shinomiya used a similar Western sauce technique when he prepared the dish of 'pan-fried sea bass in white wine', using butter, onions, and white wine as the main ingredients to make the sauce.
White meat with white wine.
This is the culinary principle of Western food, common sense.
And there is no doubt that this principle is vividly reflected in Xia Yu's seafood-themed pasta.
The white wine perfectly removes the fishy smell of the cuttlefish juice and only leaves the delicious taste, so it's no wonder that the noodles set off an offensive horn on the tip of Akiyama's tongue as soon as they were eaten!
It can be said that the sauce made with onions, minced garlic, butter and white wine, and finally poured in an appropriate amount of cuttlefish juice, is the cornerstone of the universe of this 'galaxy noodles'.
He uses Western-style cooking techniques in Chinese-style pastry dishes?
A fusion of culinary skills!
For some reason, at this moment, such a sentence suddenly popped into Nagi Eri's mind.
"Perverted......"
She whispered. (To be continued.) )
