Chapter 335: Ghost Kitchen Pingchuan Chaos
The fillet as thin as a cicada's wing melts between your teeth and cheeks after being gently chewed twice. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After the sweetness and tenderness of the fish, a crispy numb sensation immediately rises from the base of the tongue and rushes straight to the brain.
Liu Mang's eyes began to blur, and he actually saw a large scene of cherry blossoms in full bloom, as if he had come to the foot of Mount Fuji, which was full of tourists.
But he knew that it was all the toxins contained in the meat of the swallowtail dolphin.
The most amazing thing about this swallowtail dolphin is that the meat also contains tetrodotoxin. The levels of these toxins are not fatal, but they can give you the pleasure of getting drunk and slightly drunk.
Liu Mang glanced at Wu Jing and Wu Yan, and found that the two of them had a dumbfounded expression, immersed in this feeling and couldn't extricate themselves.
"Little Wu!" Liu Mang couldn't help but pat Wuyan's shoulder.
"Ahh Wuyan came back to his senses and let out a long breath: "It's so cool!
"Monk, Monk!" Seeing Wu Jing's sluggish face, Five Eyes hurriedly called him.
"Buddha, I saw the Buddha!" Wu Jing exclaimed.
"Born from the heart, what you see is an illusion caused by tetrodotoxin. Liu Mang reminded him.
"It's amazing!" Wu Jing sighed.
"Master, with this 'swallowtail dolphin sashimi' alone, you deserve the title of kitchen god. Liu Mang praised.
After tasting the sashimi, Ida Huaiki's assistants brought a small red clay stove with a small clay pot on top of the stove, which was 'gurgling' and steaming.
"Liu Mangjun, this is our unique 'puffer fish hot pot' in Dongying, let's taste it while it's hot. ”
In addition to the puffer fish meat cut into large pieces, there are also various vegetables such as tofu and enoki mushrooms.
The meat of the puffer fish is delicious, but what makes it even better is the soup in the pot.
The color of the soup is slightly cloudy, snow-white as milk, and when you take a sip in your mouth, a breath of extreme deliciousness ripples between your lips and teeth.
Similarly, this soup also contains a small amount of tetrodotoxin, and every bite of it makes people feel the pleasure of drifting into immortals.
Liu Mang and the three of them couldn't stop eating at all, and soon a pot of puffer fish was fished until only the soup base was left.
This is not over, after seeing Liu Mang and the others finish eating, Ida Huaishu took a small wooden basin and poured the boiled rice porridge into the soup base of the hot pot.
"Hey, this is the first time I've seen this way of eating. ”
In China, hot pot soup base is generally discarded and unused, and no one ever thinks of reusing it.
"China has a lot of land and resources, and Dongying has been very scarce in materials since ancient times, so nothing can be wasted. Seeing Liu Mang, he was a little puzzled, and Ida Huaishu explained.
"This practice of adding rice porridge to the soup base of the hot pot is called 'mixed drink' in our Dongying. It can add heat to people in winter and resist the invasion of cold snaps. ”
Ida said as he stirred the rice porridge in the pot with a small wooden spoon, then took a fresh egg and cracked it open and put it in the porridge.
"Not bad!" After the rice porridge was boiled, Liu Mang scooped a spoonful with a spoon and put it into his mouth.
After absorbing the umami of the soup and the fragrance of the eggs, this pot of rice porridge becomes full of affection, drawing a perfect end to the whole puffer fish feast.
What Huaiki Ida said is right, the people of Toei do have something to offer in this aspect of the use of ingredients.
The whole set of puffer fish feast is connected to the previous dish, end to end, step by step.
It's like a drama, from the trough to the high, and finally to the end, giving people an extremely strong sense of ritual.
"Liu Mangjun, are you still satisfied with today's puffer fish banquet?" When Liu Mang and the others finished eating, Ida Huaishu asked.
"Very satisfied! Thank you very much for your hospitality!" Liu Mang nodded in thanks: "Next time you go to China, I will also cook you a traditional Chinese puffer fish feast." ”
"Will definitely go. Ida Huaishu laughed: "I'm about to retire, so I will have time to go to various places to taste food and meet old friends." ”
"By the way, I want to ask you, has this China-Japan Culinary Art Exchange Conference been held before?" Liu Mang thought for a while and asked.
"This time, it's the village house of the Daya Group, who invited you to Dongying, right?" Ida Huaishu's face showed a trace of disdain: "They are businessmen, and they can't be called real 'craftsmen' at all, Liu Mangjun, you have to be careful." ”
"Actually, we all know very well to each other that the purpose of the Muraya Yotsuo inviting me is to get my recipes, but what methods will they take?
"No, it's likely to be a gamble again, and use food to get a score. Ida Huaishu analyzed.
"Isn't this looking for death, who else in Dongying can win my boss?" said Five Eyes with a sneer.
"No, I don't know of a few chefs who can be called gods, and they don't get involved in such frivolous things. Ida Huaishu thought for a moment: "Unless ......"
"Unless what?master?" asked Liu Mang.
"Unless Muraya can get him. ”
"Who is he?"
"Ghost Kitchen - Hirakawa Chaos!" When he said this name, Ida Huaishu's face was a little solemn.
"Ghost Chef - Hirakawa Ran? This name sounds scary, and he's also a chef?" Liu Mang asked curiously.
"Hmm. Ida Huaishu nodded: "With the strength of Pingchuan Chao, he could have been called a god, but Dongying's cooking world didn't recognize it." ”
"Why?"
"Because his sword has gone off the rails, he has deviated from the original meaning of cooking. ”
"What does this mean?" Liu Mang and the others looked puzzled.
"Hirakawa Ran's very talented, only in his twenties won the title of Dongying's 'chef', originally there was a hope to impact the position of Dongei's kitchen god, but unfortunately he fell into the devil and embarked on another path. ”
"Into the devil?" Liu Mang and the others were even more surprised, this cooking is not practicing martial arts, where did they come from?
"The so-called "enchantment" refers to the pursuit of the ultimate pleasure that cooking brings to people. For example, the 'swallowtail dolphin sashimi' I made just now has toxins that can make people hallucinate. ”
"Isn't that good? My 'braised finless porpoise' also uses poisonous mushrooms to reconcile the toxins in the guts of the puffer fish, which can also make people's spirits feel happy. ”
"It's different, Hirakawa Rantai pursues this feeling. In his opinion, the pinnacle of cooking is only when the food is made that affects the human spirit. So he likes to cook with all kinds of poisonous things, such as all kinds of poisonous fish, poisonous seeds, and even marijuana and opium poppies. ”
"What? Can you still eat the food made with these things? What is the difference between this and drugs?" the crowd exclaimed.
"Yes, so the people of Dongying don't admit that Hirakawa Ran is a cook at all, and even the Metropolitan Police Department has arrested and detained him. But there's no denying his indisputable talent when it comes to cooking. ”
"Boss, what if Muraya Futako really asks him out of the mountain?" asked Five Eyes.
"If he comes, he will be safe, am I still afraid that he will not succeed?" Liu Mang smiled faintly. (To be continued.) )
