"Liu Mangjun, how is it?" Seeing that Liu Mang was silent after eating sushi, Jiro Kobashi asked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I'm thinking about the difference between Dongying cuisine and Chinese cooking. Liu Mang came back to his senses and said with a faint smile.

"Oh, did you figure it out? What's different, let's hear it. Jiro Kohashi then asked.

"Well, I think Toei cuisine pays a lot of attention to the ingredients, and tries not to spoil the original flavor of the food when cooking. Liu Mang thought about it and replied.

"That's right! Liu Mangjun, you're right!" Jiro Kohashi laughed: "This is like our sake in Dongying, which only keeps the alcohol content below 22 degrees and never exceeds." ”

"Why is that?" Goome asked curiously after listening to Jiro Ida's translation.

"We have a principle in Dongying cuisine, that is, no matter what, we must not hide the original taste of the ingredients, and we must eat the original umami of the food immediately after biting. Therefore, the strength of Toei's sake must be less than 22 degrees, because if the alcohol content is too high, you will not be able to taste the fragrance of rice. ”

"No wonder, I thought you Dongying people didn't like to drink spirits at first. Five-Eyes nodded repeatedly.

"Liu Mangjun, you try this again. Jiro Kobashi then picked up the sushi and sent it to Liu Mang.

On top of the sushi in front of Liu Mang, there was a piece of bright red belly, which was different from the belly just now, this time the meat was more white fat, with a faint layer of oil.

"We are real chefs who are very strict about the ingredients. For example, this piece of sushi is made with the 'big fat' of the top bluefin tuna, which is located in the center of the tuna's belly and only accounts for 1% of the whole fish, and has the fattest taste. ”

"I've heard that the top-quality bluefin tuna can't be raised in captivity and can only be caught naturally?" asked Liu Mang.

In the past few days of coming to Dongying, Liu Mang took a stroll around the market and found that Dongying people have an almost fanatical preference for this large fish in the ocean, and they don't know how there are so many fish caught every year.

"It can be farmed, but artificial breeding is not as good as wild. You should know that bluefin tuna is a large fish that has to go through long migrations and natural catch food. In this way, its meat can be compact and delicious, I never need to breed into the dish, I would rather not do it, than to compromise my own craftsmanship. Jiro Kobashi said with pride on his face.

"I see. Liu Mang nodded, picked up the sushi on the plate, dipped it in a little soy sauce and put it into his mouth.

As soon as you eat it, the tender texture of the fish ripples between your lips and teeth, as if a live fish is jumping in your mouth.

As soon as the fat in the fish meets the temperature on the tip of the tongue, it quickly dissolves, giving people a feeling of plump and plump.

Liu Mang didn't like to eat raw ingredients before, not because he thought it was bad, but purely out of personal preference.

But now, he has also slowly fallen in love with this kind of cooking, using the simplest method to maintain the original flavor of the ingredients.

"How's it going?Liu Mangjun?" asked Jiro Kohashi with a smile.

"Very good!" Liu Mang praised: "The flavor of rice and fish blends perfectly together, with a light vinegar sourness, which is very appetizing." You made this rice specially, right?"

"It's not special, it's just craftsmanship. Jiro Kohashi had a slight smug look on his face.

"Anyone can cook rice, but it is too difficult to cook rice that can be suitable for the most dishes, you must first use kelp to make vinegar sauce, the rice must not stick to your hands, it must not be too hard, the rice grains must be loose but not loose, it can stick to the sashimi, it smells slightly sour, it tastes slightly sweet, and it must be kept pure white ......."

"Good girl! So exquisite!" Wu Jing listened and couldn't help but stick out her tongue.

"Of course, today's rice was cooked by one of my apprentices, who has been cooking in the shop for ten years. From next year, you can try to learn how to knead sushi. ”

Hearing Jiro Kohashi's words, a young man who was busy behind him turned his head with a look of surprise on his face.

"In my shop, the ingredients account for about 40 percent of the total cost, and the overall profit is about 10 to 15 percent. Therefore, there is an accurate record of how much you want to buy for each ingredient and how much sushi you can make. Based on the cost accounting, the ratio of fish to rice balls is determined for each portion, and if 15 grams of fish are needed, 15 grams will be cut with one knife. ”

No wonder your sushi is so expensive, but you keep yelling that you don't make money. Jiro Ida sighed.

"Yes, if anything goes wrong, the ingredients will be wasted, so in my shop, every chef does it with reverence for the food. ”

"Awe-inspiring?" Liu Mang felt in his heart and thought about it.

"Hey, Chinese boy, have you finished eating? Don't you see that there is still a queue behind you?" Just as Liu Mang was savoring the experience shared by Jiro Kohashi, a shrill voice sounded behind him.

Liu Mang looked back violently and found that Hideo Fukuda was standing behind him with a plate on his face, with an impatient expression.

Jiro Kohashi's sushi is eaten while kneading, and in addition to doing it himself, his apprentices also help to knead it together.

However, it seems that today's guests are all coming for the god of sushi, and there are not many people sitting in front of his apprentice position, but there is a long queue where Liu Mang is staying now.

"Don't you know if you come first and come later?" Liu Mang frowned and replied coldly.

Although I don't know why this Fukuda Hideo was hostile to him from the beginning, Liu Mang is not a soft persimmon and will be manipulated by others.

"What are you doing here, Futian? Liu Mangjun is my honored guest, please go to my apprentice's side, I don't have time now. Kobashi Jiro heard that Hideo Fukuda was not kind to Liu Mang, so he said unceremoniously.

"I'm not here to taste your food! Although your sushi skills are not bad, compared to my master, you are not even worthy of carrying shoes. Hearing Jiro Kohashi say this, Hideo Fukuda put the plate on the table and snorted coldly.

"You ......" has always been respected, and even the president and prime minister have to be polite when they see him, but when he heard such words, he was immediately so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Master, who is his master?" Liu Mang couldn't help but ask curiously.

"His master's name is Hirakawa Ran!" Kohashi Jiro took a deep breath, calmed down for a while, and paused: "Ghost Kitchen - Hirakawa Ran!"

"Oh, where did the wild cats and wild dogs come from?" Liu Mang sneered, "I've never heard of it." ”
