Chapter 287: Dice Ox Tongue Pu Ye Yao

"Father, what should I do?" Seeing that Liu Mang got the votes of the judges in the first round, Kumamoto Sanzo became anxious. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Don't panic, it's normal to get nine votes. The judges are world-renowned gourmets with tongues that are not ordinary. As long as one of the two dishes is slightly inferior, all the votes will definitely go to one side. Kumamoto Akagi analyzed.

"Then did we arrange it early in the morning, and put sashimi on the next dish?"

"No, the menu is going to be changed, this Chinese is even more powerful than we imagined, and it is difficult for simple sashimi to have a chance to win." Kumamoto Akagi pondered for a moment and vetoed.

"Ah, what are you going to do if you change the menu temporarily?" said Kumamoto in surprise.

"Bringing the third course to second place, this round we made 'Dice Beef Tongue Puye Yaki'. ”

"Yes, Father. Kumamoto Morizo nodded: "This dish has always been our signature dish of Sandogi, and since you developed it, it has been enduring and well received by diners." It's sure to conquer the discerning taste buds of those judges. ”

……

"Liu Mangjun's 'step-by-step lotus', which not only integrates the four flavors, but also faintly contains the philosophy of life of the reincarnation of the world, which is more than a step stronger than Kumamoto Akagi simply relying on ingredients to reflect the changes of the four seasons!" Ida Huaishu tasted the lotus flower and exclaimed.

"Only a person like a master who has a thorough understanding of Chinese culture can appreciate the meaning beyond the dishes, and those judges only pay attention to the taste of the dishes themselves, which should not have been expected. ”

"Liu Mangjun, what are you going to cook this round?" Ida Huaishu then asked.

"To be honest, I'm not too sure about this round, as long as the taste of the dishes doesn't affect the next round. However, Tian Ji is a horse race, and it is not a big deal to lose the last game. ”

"Tian Ji horse racing?" Ida Huaishu was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Liu Mangjun is the best among the young people I have ever seen, whether it is cooking skills or scheming!"

"Win the prize!" Liu Mang smiled slightly, and his hands were busy.

'Fish-flavored broad beans' is the dish prepared in this round, although there is the word fish-flavored, but this dish is an out-and-out temple vegetarian meal.

Fish flavor type is the typical flavor of Sichuan cuisine, which is generally stir-fried with pickled peppers, ginger and shallots, and other condiments to make dishes, similar to the feeling of eating fish but not eating fish.

However, Buddhists regard garlic, small garlic, shallots, mussels, leeks, moss (a type of rape), and coriander (i.e. coriander) as taboos and do not eat, so if you want to bring out the flavor of fish, it is much more difficult, and it is impossible for ordinary people to do it.

Of course, Liu Mang can also put aside these taboos, after all, the current judges are all foreigners, let alone monks who chant and meditate in the temple.

But if you do this, it will break the atmosphere created by the whole banquet, although it is harmless, there are always some small flaws, which is simply intolerable for Liu Mang, who pursues perfection.

"Well, if you can't put ginger and shallots, then use mushrooms instead, shiitake mushrooms and oyster mushrooms are slowly fried in hot oil, as long as the heat is properly controlled, the fish flavor can also be adjusted. Liu Mang recalled the record on the "Diaoding Collection", and immediately had a countermeasure in his heart.

Cut the oyster mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms into small cubes, carefully peel off the top layer of film from the fresh broad beans, boil them in water once, and then let them cool for later use.

Compared with the exquisite knife skills shown when he served the dish, Liu Mang's current state is extremely leisurely, and he is idling with the five-eyed Wujing while cooking, as if he didn't take this round of fighting to heart at all.

And Kumamoto Akagi is much more nervous, the dish he prepared this round is 'Dice Beef Tongue Pu Ye Yaki', in order to make this dish, he and Kumamoto Sanzo have a twelve-point spirit, and they don't dare to slack off for a moment.

Pu leaves are a type of leaf unique to Toei, and once they are burned, they have a fragrant aroma that stimulates the appetite, and when cooked, they are best served with miso.

Beef tongue is also a favorite delicacy of the Toei people, especially in the Sendai area.

It is said that this was due to the fact that during World War II, the U.S. military introduced the habit of eating beef, and because the U.S. military did not eat beef tongue and discarded it, the thrifty locals felt pity and began to try to make beef tongue into dishes, and gradually spread.

Kumamoto Akagi cuts the long beef tongue into dice-like pieces, blanches them to remove the blood, stir-fries them with his own secret seasoning, and simmers them over low heat.

"That Chinese seems to be very relaxed. Could it be that he has the chance to win again this time?" Taking advantage of the gap between the beef tongue stew, Kumamoto Sanzo couldn't help but observe Liu Manglai on the opposite side again.

"Don't worry about others!" Kumamoto Akagi reprimanded, his eyes widened.

The more Kumamoto Sansan did this, the more nervous Kumamoto Akagi's heart became, and through the previous round of fighting, he knew very well how terrifying the strength of the young man on the other side was.

After the beef tongue in the pot had been simmering for about ten minutes, Kumamoto Akagi lifted the lid and threw a little black crumb into it.

These black crumbs are his secret recipe, black truffles from the pine forests of Mt. Fuji.

This truffle has a unique smell that is mixed with stewed beef tongue and the scent of the leaves to create a mouthwatering aroma.

"Father, Pu Ye is dry. On the long table in front of Kumamoto Akagi were small charcoal stoves made of white porcelain, the mouth of which was covered with barbed wire, and on which were placed a palm-sized yellow leaf.

"Yes, the beef tongue is stewed and ready to be served. Kumamoto Akagi removed the pot from the heat and used a small wooden spoon to scoop the stewed beef tongue onto the leaves.

"Well, the aroma is very strong!" Kumamoto Sanzo stepped forward and fanned the end of his nose with his hand, then sprinkled the sliced green onions and bright red cherries on top of the beef tongue.

"Serve it to the judges, after a long time, the aroma will dissipate!" Kumamoto Akagi urged.

"Huh, it's done so soon?" Liu Mang glanced at the opposite side: "Xiao Wu, set the plates, and we're ready to serve the food!"

The charcoal fire in the white porcelain stove burned, and the heat emitted gently licked the leaves covered with the cow's tongue, and a special fragrance spread through the hall.

"Oh my God! what does it smell like?" asked one of the challengers, sniffling.

"It's barbecue, but this meat is so fragrant! There is a natural fragrance of plants and trees, which makes people have a great appetite!"

"It's the taste of Puye, but this taste is very special, it should be something else. "A challenger with a good sense of smell quickly sniffed out where the aroma came from.

"Kumamoto-kun must have exhausted his mental strength this time, and if he doesn't pull back a game, the next fight will be meaningless. ”

"Not bad...... Not bad......" The man next to him chimed in.
