Chapter 313: Silver Flame (Part II)
"Boss, they seem to have stopped. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" said Five Eyes, who was picking out bean sprouts on the stove, glancing up at the other side.
"What are they doing? Is there a certainty of winning this game?" Liu Mang was also a little strange.
On the other side, Hirakawa Ranwa and Muraya Futako stood by the stove, talking and laughing, as if they were waiting for him on purpose.
"Don't worry about other people, we just need to be ourselves. The shredded meat in Liu Mang's hand was also torn, and he took out a sewing needle and prepared to start wearing bean sprouts.
Pinch the bean sprouts through a hot water first to soften it a little, otherwise it will be easy to break.
The process of passing the water is very particular, and the sprouts can only stay in the pot for a little one to two seconds. If it is too long, it will wilt, and if it is short, it will not be effective.
The bean sprouts were scalded, and after another cold water, after it cooled, Liu Mang picked up the sewing needle, first passed the shredded ham through the eye of the needle, and then pinched one end of the bean sprouts and passed it from the bottom to the top.
"Boss, this is so difficult!" "Five-eyes also picked up a sewing needle, tried to wear two, and complained.
Liu Mang wore it very quickly, and with a light head of the sewing needle, he immediately wore it.
And the five eyes either pierced the skin of the bean sprouts halfway through the needle, or they used too much force to break the meat shreds inside.
"Take your time, you haven't practiced specifically, your hands are still unsteady, and of course you can't wear quickly. Liu Mang said with a smile.
"No, I don't think you've practiced either. Five-eyed said in surprise.
"Have you forgotten that kitchen knife in our attic? I've been cutting shredded potatoes for three years!"
"Ah, it turns out that using that kitchen knife to practice knife skills still has such an effect?" Five Eyes understood.
The kitchen knife is known to the five eyes, it was specially made by Liu Mang to find a blacksmith, and it weighs seven or eight pounds, which is much heavier than an ordinary kitchen knife. Not to mention holding the chopping vegetables, even if you play with your hands for a while, you will feel sore, and I don't know how Liu Mang has persevered in the past few years.
"Of course, that kitchen knife not only exercised my knife skills, but also made my right hand stronger than ordinary people, and I held the knife very steadily. In this way, the needle and thread will not tremble. Liu Mang explained.
"I'll take it to practice when I go back, no wonder I think that when I cut chickens and ducks, I didn't cut as neatly as you. ”
"If you want to practice the best, I'm afraid you won't be able to endure this hardship. ”
The outer layer of the bean sprouts is as crystal as jade, and there is a hint of pink embedded inside, like a fine chalcedony, which is very cute.
"Tut-tut, China's culinary culture is so vast and profound, I can even think of this method!" Jiro Ida picked up a bean sprout and looked at it carefully, admiring it.
"That's it, buddy, if you have a chance to go to China to have fun, I'll take you to eat all over the country!" said with a five-eyed smile.
After this time, I will definitely travel to China and appreciate the Chinese food culture. Jiro Ida nodded repeatedly.
Although Liu Mang wears bean sprouts very quickly, the time to wear one is about a second, but in order to make up the amount of this dish, it took nearly an hour.
Fortunately, the stipulated time for this round of competition is two hours, and Liu Mang has plenty of time.
On the other side, Hirakawa Ran, and Muraya Futako stopped completely, not only were they not in a hurry at all, but they made a pot of hot tea and drank tea.
"Boss, is it enough?" asked Five-Eye, as he measured the bean sprouts on his plate.
"Well, that's enough, it's time to start frying. Liu Mang nodded, put the wok on the stove, and twisted the fire switch on the stove.
The preparation of this 'fire bud silver wire' in the early stage is very tedious, but the stir-fry in the later stage is actually very simple. Stir-fry over high heat, and finally add the stock and season it slightly.
"Boom, boom!" Liu Mang shook the wok, the bean sprouts in the pot flew up and down, and the shredded ham that passed through the middle was forced by the heat, completely exuding the umami inside, and mixing with the sweetness of the bean sprouts.
"Xiao Wu, prepare the plate and start serving!" Liu Mang shouted, and Wuyan immediately served the porcelain plate that had been prepared.
"Your Excellency Pingchuan, Liu Mang's dishes are finished, let's start making them immediately!" Muraya Erxiong, who seemed to be drinking tea leisurely on the side, actually kept paying attention to the movements of Liu Mang and the others opposite, and immediately said when he saw their dishes finished.
"Understood!" Hirakawa put down the teacup, picked up his chopsticks, re-coated the marinated prawns, and fried them in a frying pan.
"It's finally done!" That Chinese actually used silver needles to cook, it's unheard of!" said a viewer who stood up from the ground, rubbed his somewhat numb legs.
"I really want to eat it! To be able to use such delicate effort to complete a dish is called real 'ingenuity'!" exclaimed an audience member next to him.
"I don't know what it tastes like, but I just noticed that the red thread that goes through the bean sprouts looks like ham?" said one of the judges to his companion with some anticipation.
"It's ham meat, and it's unique. The judge next to him nodded: "I once tasted this ham, and it tasted very delicious, not worse than Spanish ham at all." But this is the first time I've seen a needle like this into a bean sprout. ”
"Judges, Mr. Liu Mang from the Chinese side took the lead in completing his own dishes, and you can start tasting them. John said.
Plates of bean sprouts were brought to the judges, under the illumination of the hall lights, the roots of the bean sprouts in the plate were as crystal as white jade, and through the slightly transparent skin, you could clearly see the bright red color inside, which brought great visual pleasure to people.
Mr. Rabbit took the lead in picking up chopsticks, took a handful of bean sprouts, and put them in his mouth.
"Crunch, crunch!" a soft crunch sound sounded between his teeth.
After the sweetness and tenderness of the bean sprouts, it is the deliciousness of the shredded ham, which is instantly released once bitten and ripples between the lips and teeth.
Even better, unlike the shredded ham and bean sprouts stir-fried together, the umami flavor of the ham is preserved to the greatest extent after being stir-fried through the sprouts.
It's as if bean sprouts are inherently delicious. The palate shifts between fresh and mellow, and it's refreshing.
Mr. Rabbit did not expect that such a situation could be achieved with ingredients that are particularly rare and skillfully processed by human hands. Once again, he was deeply impressed by the charm of Chinese cuisine.
"Great! Mr. Liu Mang, this is no longer a craft, but an art!" Mr. Rabbit couldn't help but admire.
"That's right! This dish made me feel that human beings can be so good and can make a dish in such a delicate way!" another judge also praised.
"It's the first time I've learned that cooking can also turn decay into magic, bringing poetic enjoyment to people's taste!"
……
Hearing the judges' comments, Muraya Jio was secretly glad that he turned sideways and said to Pingchuan: "Fortunately, I listened to you, otherwise we would have lost to him again in this game!"
