Chapter 996: Giant Owl (I)

The matter of the dragon leader Zhu Ji asking Xia Yu to go abroad to hunt for treasure only spread in the circle of relatives and friends.

Xia Yu was not in a hurry.

There are two mountains in front of him to move, and the 'Collect the Eight Legendary Kitchenware' is only one of them, and the other is to create a nirvana recipe!

For several days, Xin Ju went downstairs, and after Xia Yu took office as 'Qilinzi', business became even more popular.

The main building still implements a fixed table system every day, only entertaining 1,000 tables of guests, and the newly opened east and west two side pavilions, which are used to entertain distinguished guests, have fewer fixed tables, because the guests who dine here usually designate Xia Yu to cook, so the table is sometimes limited to 10 tables a day, of course, each table of banquet dishes is certainly not cheap, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with a lot of money.

On this day, in the kitchen, there were three Lin chefs, gathered around Xia Yu, listened carefully to his words, and observed his cooking.

The three Lin chefs, two men and one woman, were selected by Xia Yu and Zhu Qing in their recruitment resumes.

The youngest of them was a round older than Xia Yu, but at this time, they were around the teenagers, and their expressions and demeanors were not much different from those new apprentices who had just entered the kitchen.

"...... you all know what the 'food spirit' is, right?" Xia Yu was cooking a pot of fresh soup, putting ingredients into the hot water, and then clapping his hands and turning his head to look at the three of them.

Chef Lin glanced at each other, his face bitter.

Among them, the female chef who wears red clothes and has a charming face is just an acquaintance, and her real name is Wu Hongyi, who is a descendant of an important leader in the dark cuisine world.

Wu Hongyi said cautiously: "If we are concerned with the term 'Soul Eater' alone, we know. ”

"Imprint?" Xia Yu asked.

The three nodded.

"So, how to give the imprint to the dishes, so that the shape and shadow in the dishes are more real, immortal and indestructible, this is what makes you feel tricky and uncertain, right?" Xia Yu smiled.

The three nodded again.

It was quiet outside the kitchen, and someone was visiting, but they didn't dare to make a noise.

After a while, Xia Yu came out with his hands in his hands and exchanged glances with Zhu Qing, Zhu Qing leaned over and said, "Ah Yu, are you going to teach them to find their own 'Soul Eater'?"

"This is one of the agreed conditions that I have hired them for ten years. Xia Yu squinted, "This matter has to be done slowly, it's not that simple." I'm going to make a dragon-level recipe for each of them, and they will look at my 'shape' from my dragon-level recipe and realize it for themselves, and if they succeed in replacing my mark, then they will be considered to have initially realized the 'spirit eater'. ”

"Next, I will guide them to create their first dragon recipes, and it is only natural that they will step into the door of the dragon kitchen. ”

Hearing Xia Yu say this, the corners of Zhu Qing's lips curled, and he couldn't cry or laugh.

If it is as easy as the words say, why is the Chinese food industry occupied by a group of old men?

However, Zhu Qing didn't dwell on this matter, but instead smiled and tugged at Xia Yu's sleeve, and said, "Lei Aoxue is here, she is waiting for you." ”

"Oh?"

Xia Yu immediately quickened his pace.

In the courtyard, Lei Aoxue stood quietly, and on the side of her hand was a suitcase, and the seven-star knife kitchenware box was stacked on top of it.

Regarding the matter of the dragon head Zhu Ji letting the contemporary Qilinzi be responsible for retrieving the kitchenware, Lei Aoxue heard about it, so before going abroad, he specially went to Ju Xia's stairs, planning to have a good talk with Xia Yu.

In fact, Lei Aoxue and Lei's family, who have been adrift overseas for so many years, are acting as "secret agents" of the highest gastronomic organization in China. She roughly informed Xia Yu of the clues at hand, the three pieces of kitchen utensils, 'Greedy Wolf Pot', 'Spirit Treasure Library' and 'Magic Copper Hallow', and the one with definite news at present is the 'Magic Copper Hallow'!

"Demon Bronze Hallow?" Xia Yu was surprised.

"Well, this is the one, specially used for the processing of dry goods, if you put dried seafood and dried vegetables into this kitchenware, you will immediately soak them, put water to cook them with fire, it will be the most delicious soup!" Lei Ao Xue said.

Xia Yu silently added in his heart, it's not just delicious, he has seen "China Banban", and knows that the ingredients soaked in the "Magic Bronze Hallows" are used to make soup, and he immediately gets a pot of 'glowing' soup. Perverted enough!

"Time waits for no one, specific news, when you arrive in Mexico City, we meet, I will tell you in detail. ”

Lei Aoxue dragged her suitcase and paused, "This opportunity is rare." Only at a certain point in time, at a local food festival, will the collector of the 'Bronze Hallows display kitchen utensils and make dishes with kitchen utensils for the public to enjoy. ”

"Three days later, the local food festival opened. ”

She glanced at Xia Yu deeply.

Xia Yu held his forehead, "Hey, I still want to rest for a while and raise my own nirvana recipe...... Wouldn't it be too hasty to catch the ducks on the shelves like this?"

The situation abroad, nine times out of ten, is more complicated than at home.

There are also light and dark cuisine circles in China, and there are a few bigwigs standing on the platform, but when they go abroad, they don't talk about life if they are not familiar with the place, the key is that the power situation is not clear, and it is predictable to rashly come to the door to ask for kitchen utensils, and the conflict is predictable.

Moreover, according to Lei Aoxue's intelligence clues, the location is still Mexico, where gangsters are rampant, Xia Yu's heart trembled subconsciously. I have read a lot of news and information about Mexican gangsters, and I know how powerful these gangsters and big drug lords are, and the mayors of small places have been eliminated batch after batch. When he went to Mexico, the first thing he considered was his personal safety.

The heat weapon Xia Yu was not afraid.

But he plans to bring Maki Morita and Erina Nagikiri, which can be regarded as an experience.

There's always something wrong with being wary.

……

Two days later.

Veracruz, Mexico.

This port city, along the Gulf in eastern Mexico, shines like a pearl.

It has the oldest city in Mexico, and because of its early colonial history, as a gateway to the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, it can be regarded as a fusion of European and African cultures, and the most significant thing is the local food flavor -

Combining Spanish and Cuban Havana, as well as Mexican culture, it has formed a fusion of techniques and cooking methods.

In the city center, Xia Yu and his entourage got out of the hotel and got into a car.

The driver, a local, was speaking fluent English and excitedly introducing the food festival to everyone in the car.

In fact, Mexico is dominated by Spanish, and the English popularity of young people is much worse than that of the Celestial Empire, and this young driver can be regarded as returning from a North American university, hired by Lei Aoxue, is a famous chef, and is very familiar with the food culture of the United States and Mexico.

Erina Nagikiri was in the back seat of the car, slightly close to Xia Yu, and also showed off her rich food knowledge to Xia Yu and Morita Maki at the right time, she whispered: "In the world, there are ten major cuisines, ten food countries, and Mexico is probably ranked eighth or seventh. ”

"The situation in Mexico, like the Chinese mainland, also has regional customs and cuisines, and there are roughly eight regional cuisines, each with very different styles. ”

"Villagurus, the main seafood and fish cuisine, peanuts are widely used, and the cooking method is a fierce collision of local techniques and Spanish characteristics, and a high degree of integration ......"

Xia Yu listened with relish, his knowledge was far less solid than Erina Nagikiri, who was seriously cultivated by the ghost father and Marshal Yuanyue.

"I know how to cook a dish of Vilagurus, 'Huachinango' in Spanish, a seafood stew with red snapper as the main ingredient, made with tomatoes, garlic, onions and many Euro-Mediterranean spices combined with a sauce......
