Chapter 110: The Dishes Are Baked
The plating was done, and the puffer fish stewed in the pot was almost there, Liu Mang opened the lid of the pot, and a rich aroma came to his face. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The scent was like substance, faintly burrowing into his nostrils, teasing his gustatory nerves.
After cooking for so long, Liu Mang knew for the first time that it turned out that a dish could make people crazy just by its fragrance.
No wonder folk rumors say that a family of boiled puffer fish also smells fragrant for ten miles.
The puffer fish soup in the pot is drying up, and it is steaming hot.
It is probably because the dark soy sauce and diced mushrooms are mixed together to exert a wonderful effect. The color of the puffer fish in the pot is even more beautiful than Liu Mang imagined, showing a translucent sauce red.
This red color is more attractive than simply blended with old soy sauce. The glittering oil on it made people saliva flood their mouths just by looking at it.
"Taste it!"
Liu Mang couldn't wait, he couldn't wait to put it on the plate, so he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of pork meat from the pot and put it in his mouth.
The idiom 'melts in your mouth' is generally used to describe food that is tender and tender. But Liu Mang now feels that multiplying this word by ten times cannot express one percent of the taste of this braised puffer fish.
If I had to use words to describe it, it would be only one - melting! delicious enough to melt the tongue!
Eat a bite of puffer fish meat, and never smell the world's fish!
Liu Mang thought that this poem was just an exaggeration of the literati and ink writers in ancient times, who had eaten puffer fish and rendered it.
But now he felt that this was the case!
After about a few seconds, the excellent taste of the puffer fish faded, and there was a slight numbness in the mouth, and Liu Mang's eyes suddenly appeared dizzy illusion.
"It's not good! Is it really poisonous!" Liu Mang was shocked.
But this illusion is only for a moment, and then it is followed by the pleasure that rises from the soles of the feet and floods all the way into the brain.
This kind of pleasure is like a person stretching his waist, and the whole body is extremely relaxed and comfortable.
"Mr. Su is right, it is really worth dying. Liu Mang smacked his lips and muttered.
But what Liu Mang didn't know was that although the puffer fish was delicious, the taste was not so delicious that it made people want to stop.
A large part of the reason for the puffer fish he is now cooking is the special umami produced by the toxins of fish roe, fish eyes and mushrooms added to the pork meat.
This umami can no longer be measured by normal dishes.
Liu Mang was even thinking, it's best if you don't eat it, it's better for me to enjoy such a delicacy myself.
Resisting his desire, he poured the puffer fish from the pot on his plate, then rang the bell to announce that his dish was done.
The judges in the audience stared intently at the big screen from the beginning of Liu Mang's cooking, paying attention to his every move.
Seeing that Liu Mang really ate the puffer fish he made, people began to talk about it again.
"This young man really eats it, is he really not afraid of death?"
"Maybe he really has a way to get rid of the toxins from the roe and the fish's eyes. ”
"Cut, then you want to eat, do you dare to eat?"
"Well, just talking, who's really going to play with their lives?"
……
Hearing the discussion of the judges on the side, Li Yanran showed a trace of pride on his face.
"Liu Mang, even if you really have the ability to remove toxins, but so what? As long as no one dares to eat it, you still don't lose?"
"Jingle bell!"
Yu Yang also rang the bell, and his dish was finished.
"Haha, judges, the contestants' dishes are finished, let's go up and judge. Li stood up from the judges' bench and greeted.
Liu Mang and Yu Yang's dishes were brought to a large round table by the staff, and the judges were first allowed to watch the color and presentation of the dishes.
Yu Yang's presentation is very good, the steamed puffer fish is sprinkled with shredded green onions and ginger, and it is arranged in a circle in a circle, guarding the lotus flower carved from Sydney pear in the middle of the plate.
But compared with Liu Mang, the color and artistic conception alone are much worse, beautiful is beautiful, but there is a little bit of taste.
The judges came up to the stage and looked left and right around the two finished dishes, praising them again and again. From time to time, people took out their mobile phones and started taking pictures.
"This young man's skills are good, it's the first time I've seen someone put on a plate, and he can put it so beautifully. ”
"Yes, Master Yu Yang's presentation is also very beautiful, but it is too decent. ”
"This smells so good, this is the dish made by Liu Mang, I really want to taste it!" a girl dressed in fashion said while swallowing her saliva.
Even in Toying, I've never heard anyone say that you can cook with puffer fish roe and fish eyes. A companion next to her immediately pulled her.
"Isn't this young man a little stupid? The color and aroma of this dish alone have already won, why did he add any fish roe and fish eyes? Isn't this sick!"
"That's right, as long as the taste of the dishes is not particularly unpalatable, he can hope to advance with these two things alone. ”
For these whispers of the judges, Liu Mang, who was standing at the table, had an indifferent face and didn't even raise his eyelids.
……
"Okay, you've seen the initial impression of the dish, now let's start tasting. Li Qianran said.
The judges picked up the chopsticks and began to taste them, and from time to time there were bursts of admiration.
"Delicious! Master Yu Yang's steamed puffer fish is simply delicious!"
"That's right, it deserves to be the first fresh in the Yangtze River!
"Jokes, even Su Dongpo is full of praise for the dishes, isn't it Fan Fan?"
"It's a pity, that Liu Mang really died by himself!"
"That's right, that's right, it's a thankless job. ”
……
Sure enough, just like Li Yanran thought, the judges were deliberately bypassing Liu Mang's dishes and didn't even touch a bite.
"Okay, everyone's done tasting, we can score it. Li Yanran walked back to his seat with a smile and asked.
Seeing Liu Mang standing at the table in disappointment, his expression was very lonely, and Li Ruonan's heart was inexplicably distressed.
"I protest! It's not fair! You haven't tasted Mr. Liu's dishes! How can you rate it!?"
"Oh, Miss Ruonan, why is it unfair?" Li Yanran sneered: "I said it a long time ago, it's one thing for him to do it, and it's another thing for the judges to taste it or not." Do you think everyone is willing to joke with their lives?"
"This ......" Li Ruonan stood up, unable to refute it at all.
"My dishes, you really don't want to taste them?" Liu Mang on the stage suddenly raised his head and asked.
"That's right, if you don't want to taste it, it means that you have failed, so you better go home obediently. Li Junran laughed.
"Hey......"
Liu Mang sighed leisurely, picked up a piece of puffer fish on the plate and put it in his mouth, chewed it gently, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"If the spring breeze knows what I mean, I don't see the bright moon for who is worried. Such a peerless delicacy is really not something that ordinary people in the world can appreciate. ”
