Chapter 714: Indescribable Taste
"It's a very formal approach, and there are no special improvements. After seeing Abel on the stage add the slurry of the lidin flakes to the egg whites in turn, the cream, and then the Italian espresso, Shan Jian said.
"I have to say that the foreigners' meals are not very good, but the desserts and pastries are really good, and there are many things worth learning from. He Donglin said.
"It probably has something to do with the fact that they have always eaten flour as a staple food. For example, in our country, there are more types of pastries in the north than in the south. Lin Xiao analyzed.
"Then I don't agree. When it comes to pastries, where in China can compare to Suzhou and Guangzhou? Soviet-style dim sum and Cantonese refreshments are casually thousands of kinds. He Donglin retorted.
"Dumplings originated in the north, right? Noodles are also passed from north to south, as well as steamed buns, flower rolls, etc., ......" Lin Xiao, who studied under the Manhan House in the north, snapped his fingers and counted the same.
"Of the eight major cuisines in China, the south accounts for seven, and in addition to Shandong cuisine in the north, what else can be on the table?" He Donglin, who entered the Tao with Cantonese cuisine and Huaiyang, scoffed.
"That said, Lu cuisine is the only spontaneous cuisine among the eight major cuisines, and the other major cuisines have been more or less influenced by it, and the name of the head of the eight cuisines is not blown!" Lin Xiao's neck turned red.
"Stop!" Liu Mang couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly stopped: "Two, we came to watch the game, why did we start infighting?"
"It's just an ordinary academic exchange. Lin Xiao touched his nose stupidly: "Lao He, am I right?"
"Let's talk again when we get back to the hotel. He Donglin's tone was obviously full of discussion.
"No problem!"
"Yes, I'm blessed again!" said Shan Jian in agreement.
"Let's not talk about it, let's watch the game. ā
On the stage at this time, both sides were nervously busy.
"Can the roast pig made from this taste good?" He Donglin said after seeing Hans and his assistant coating only the surface of the suckling pig with a layer of honey, and then placing it in a baking tray filled with onions and celery segments, and sending it directly to the oven.
"Foreigners always make the same routine when making grilled food, after grilling, it is divided into pieces and drizzled with sauce, which is not much different from steak. In this regard, Lin Xiao was also very disdainful.
A layer of egg batter and a layer of finger cakes, add to the cake mold, then put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate, and when it is completely solidified, Abel takes the hair dryer handed by the assistant, blows it on the outer wall of the cake mold slightly, takes out the finished tiramisu, and then divides it into pieces with a bread knife, puts them into small plates, and finally sprinkles cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and puts various fruits for decoration.
"Is it done?" Lin Xiao said.
"It should be done. However, his tiramisu recipe is very ordinary, exactly the same as that of ordinary chefs, and even omits a lot of steps. Shan Jian said a little strangely.
"Judges, my dessert is done, please taste it. Abel pressed the bell on the table.
"Before tasting, I would like to ask, Mr. Abel, do you make tiramisu?" asked Luc Martinez.
"Of course not, although my dessert is similar to the traditional tiramisu, it tastes completely different, and I will name it - Samothrace Nikai's Gift!" Abel smiled confidently.
"It looks pretty good, but I don't know how it tastes. Lin Xiao stared at the camera on the big screen and said.
Triangular tiramisu is placed on a plate, black and white in vivid layers, and the cake is topped with bright red strawberries, emerald green Shanti, and yellow bananas......
"I'll try it first. Luc Martinez pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and picked up the spoon first.
Gently scooping a spoonful into his mouth, Luc Martinez's eyes behind the lenses revealed a light of surprise. Immediately after that, he scooped up another spoonful and put it in his mouth.
"It's delicious!" Luc Martinez, who has tasted countless delicacies and is known as a self-proclaimed gourmet, is now completely conquered by this 'gift of Samothrace nikai'.
The aroma, smoothness, sweetness and greasy nature of traditional tiramisu make it difficult to describe the taste of this dessert. Luc Martinez pondered for a while before he came up with a word ā pure.
That's right, the taste of this dessert can only be described as pure. Flour, eggs, cream, cocoa, rum, various fruits...... The flavors of the ingredients are superimposed on each other, but they are independent of each other, and they ripple on the tip of the tongue little by little with the movement of the mouth.
"Only such a dessert can be worthy of the name of Samothrace Nikai!"
Luc Martinez unknowingly ate the dessert, and when he came back to his senses, he found that the other judges were also intoxicated.
"It was the most perfect dessert I've ever had. One of the judges exclaimed.
"I felt like my heart was going to melt. A female judge clutched her chest: "The deliciousness of this dessert cannot be described in words." ā
"Is it that delicious?" Lin Xiao was skeptical.
"Guys, there's a dessert left, who wants to come up and taste it? Abel laughed.
"IāI!" many spectators raised their hands.
"Just you, pretty lady. Abel's gaze swept across the audience, and finally fixed on Shan Jian.
"Me?" Shan Jian was stunned and pointed to herself.
"Yes. Abel took it himself, walked to the audience, and handed the plate in his hand to Shan Jian.
"Okay. Shan Jian picked up the spoon on the side of the plate, scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth.
"This ......" Shan Jian carefully felt the taste in his mouth, and shook his head after a while.
"What's the matter, ma'am, isn't it delicious?"
"Delicious. But I can't put into account the delicious feeling. Shan Jian handed the plate to Liu Mang next to him: "Chef, why don't you try it." ā
"Are you the Chinese chef?" Abel saw Liu Mang, and his expression froze.
"Don't mind if I try it. Liu Mang said with a smile.
"Of course not. The smile on Abel's face suddenly retracted, and his expression became solemn.
He has watched both of Liu Mang's games, and in Abel's heart, this Chinese who is about the same age as him also has excellent talent and is one of the strongest opponents in this competition.
Scoop up a piece and put it into his mouth, and suddenly, all kinds of flavors bloomed on the tip of his tongue, and Liu Mang slowly closed his eyes.
"Lao Liu, how is it?" After a while, Lin Xiao asked.
"He is worthy of being a black gold wine taster, and his grasp of the taste has reached the extreme!" Liu Mang exhaled.
"First of all, the sugar content of this dessert is very well controlled, about 20 percent. Compared to the amount of the whole dessert, this ratio is just right. It feels sweet, but not greasy. Based on this, the ratio of flour, eggs, cream and other ingredients is kept at 5%, which is ......"
