After the fish is tender, there is a slight numbness at the base of the tongue, and this numbness stays in the mouth for a very short time, only a short moment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a moment, an extreme taste bursts out from the base of the tongue.

This delicious taste, which is the only one seen in Jiro Kohashi's life, is like a tide, along the taste bud nerves on the tongue, all the way up to the brain.

"Yo Xi! it's really delicious!" Kohashi Jiro was stunned, and his eyes were quite complicated when he looked at Liu Mang.

"Liu Mangjun, I now know why you have won the position of the Chinese Chef God, just with this dish, you deserve it!"

"It's over, master. I'm nothing compared to you. Liu Mang bowed slightly and said modestly.

"It's not like that. Jiro Kobashi shook his head: "If you want to become a real top master, you need talent. Diligence and perseverance can certainly make a person achieve great things, but it is really difficult to go further. Your talent is far superior to mine, and I'm looking forward to seeing where you can go in the future. ”

"Liu Mangjun, is your cooking finished?" Hachiro Yamano walked over with a plate.

"Oh, you're done?" Liu Mang glanced over and saw that Hideo Fukuda was standing there with his hands folded, looking at him coldly.

"Try it and see how it goes. Yamano Hachiro handed the plate in his hand to Liu Mang.

The rice balls on the plate look ordinary, sprinkled with a little black sesame seeds and wrapped in seaweed flakes.

"Yes. Liu Mang nodded, grabbed the rice ball and brought it to his mouth and bit it gently.

After biting into the slightly warm rice ball, the umami of fresh roe gushes out. Not only the roe, but also the grilled fish head meat wrapped in the rice ball, but when the taste of the fish head meat emanated in his mouth, Liu Mang's brows furrowed.

"It doesn't make sense, this fish head meat is too unpalatable! It's bitter and astringent, compared to the taste of the roe, it's like a heaven and an earth. ”

But before Liu Mang could react, his tongue was as if it had been hit by a slight electric current, and it became numb in an instant.

Then the bitterness and astringency of the fish head disappear, and the umami flavor of the roe seems to be magnified countless times, lingering in the mouth, and the deliciousness is so delicious that the whole tongue seems to disappear out of thin air.

"This is ......" Liu Mang's pupils contracted sharply, and he couldn't help but sigh softly: "This is definitely not the taste of caviar!

Now the delicious taste in the mouth is not inferior to the puffer fish meat carefully prepared by Liu Mang, and even surpasses.

"Boss, the situation is not good!" "Goyan also tasted a rice ball, looking worried.

"Well, it looks like I'm going to do something about it, or I'm going to have a hard time winning. After speaking, Liu Mang picked up the rice ball in his hand and took another bite, closing his eyes and savoring the taste.

"How the hell did he do it? There was no problem with the roe, no problem with the rice and seaweed, and the mystery must have come from the fish head that was grilled in the first place. ”

After swallowing the rice in his mouth, Liu Mang still didn't taste it, he only took another bite.

"Well, when the fish head is grilled, special condiments are added, I heard Master Huaishu say that Pingchuan likes to cook with poisonous things, so the condiments added to the fish head must be poisonous. In fact, the taste of this rice ball is not particularly delicious, but the poisonous thing produces a wonderful sensation in the mouth, paralyzing people's nerves, and creating an illusion in people's minds, but what is this poisonous thing? How can I resolve it?" Liu Mang frowned and pondered hard.

"Haha, Liu Mangjun, are you still satisfied with the rice balls made by Futianjun?" Seeing the look on Liu Mang's face, Hachiro Yamano smiled proudly.

Liu Mang didn't pay attention to him, but then stuffed the last bit of rice ball in his hand into his mouth.

"It's really hard, I can't taste what else is added to this rice ball other than the bamboo sunflower. ”

"Liu Mangjun, I admit that your current dumplings are very good, but compared to what Futianjun made, it is still a little bit worse, you will lose this time!"

"What about your tongue and nose? doesn't work, does it? Haha, there are so many ingredients in this world, no matter how talented you are, you can't taste them all!"

"That's right! Why do you want to taste them all? I almost went into a misunderstanding!" Listening to Hachiro Yamano's words, Liu Mang's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he almost jumped up excitedly.

"Hideo Fukuda's rice balls are the same as my puffer fish, and the toxins added to them must remain in a very balanced state, I just need to break this state!" Liu Mang carefully compared the records of food restraint in the "Medical Food Heart Sutra", and quickly came up with a solution.

Immediately afterwards, he walked to the edge of the shelf where the ingredients were placed, took a few green onions, and thought to himself: "Who said that I want to taste them all, just taste only one! Fukuda Hideo, you are doomed!"

"Boss, what are you doing here?" After seeing Liu Mang chop up the green onions and throw them into the juicer, Wuyan asked strangely.

"Hehe, I forgot just now, the dumplings are still missing a dipping sauce, and with this dipping sauce, the taste is perfect!"

After speaking, Liu Mang filtered the juice squeezed out of the green onions, then poured it into a small bowl, and then added water and stirred well.

"Well, the taste is just right, it doesn't affect the texture of the dumplings. After the dipping sauce was adjusted, Liu Mang tasted it and thought secretly in his heart.

"It doesn't seem to make any difference, except for a little green onion, it doesn't change the taste of the dumplings. Wuyan sandwiched a dumpling, dipped it in the dipping sauce that Liu Mang mixed and tasted it, which was even more strange.

"The secret of heaven must not be revealed!" Liu Mang smiled mysteriously and did not explain too much.

"Liu Mangjun, can you start tasting it for passers-by?" said Yamano Hachiro with a smile.

"Yes. Liu Mang nodded, put the dumplings in the basin into the insulated box, and served them with the dipping sauce that had just been adjusted.

"Would you like to try my dumplings, you will be pleasantly surprised." Seeing that Hideo Fukuda also came over, Liu Mang smiled.

"I don't think that's necessary, right?" Fukuda Hideo snorted, glanced at the dumplings on the table, and looked disdainful: "I'm not interested in this kind of garbage at all!"

"Really?" The smile on Liu Mang's face remained unchanged: "When you lose, don't cry!"

"It's a big joke! How could I lose?" Hideo Fukuda was full of confidence: "Chinese boy, this 'extremely fresh rice ball' is one of my teacher's proudest works, and everyone who has eaten it will never forget it! I advise you to hand over the last secret recipe now, so as not to be unable to come to the stage!"

"That's not likely!" Liu Mang shook his finger lightly: "Please wait and see!"
