Chapter 281: The Difference Between Wasabi
"Money, money, don't just think about money. Fang Ze knocked Lin Xiaoxin's head with his hand and said, "People just regard cooking as a hobby, and being a chef is to make better dishes, not just for money." โ
"Hmm, if you have something to say, don't knock on your head, what should you do if you knock stupidly. โ
When Fang Ze was about to say, 'I'll raise it if I'm stupid', Liu Pleiades answered, "Actually, we also want to sell it a little more expensive, but the chefs in the surrounding restaurants cook delicious food, so there is no way to sell it expensive, otherwise no one will come to eat." โ
"You see, they still want to sell it for a little more expensive. Lin Xiaoxin listened to Liu Pleiades's explanation, and immediately jumped up and bounced back Fang Ze's forehead.
Fang Ze, who was tragically ganked, turned his head to look at Liu Pleiades, who was touching the back of his head and smiling innocently, and said helplessly, "Everyone is still ready to go, let's drive over and arrive in Lin'an before noon." โ
"Isn't it more convenient to take the high-speed rail?" Lin Xiaoxin looked at Fang Ze and asked.
It's convenient to take the high-speed rail, but I don't know if this guy Da Meow has arranged an identity for Liu Yuexing.
So Fang Ze asked Liu Yuexing, "Xiaoxing, do you know your own ID number?" โ
"ID number?" Liu Pleiades obviously didn't know about this thing, but he touched his head and thought for a moment, then took out a note from his pocket, "Is this it?" โ
Fang Ze took the note and looked at it, there were thirteen digits written on it, it looked like there should be no problem with the ID number.
So Fang Ze entered Liu Pleiades' ID number and name into the software to buy tickets, and after verifying his identity, he bought high-speed rail tickets for the three of them.
went out and took a taxi to the high-speed rail station, gave the minor Liu Pleiades a temporary ID card, and then waited for the time to get on the bus.
On the high-speed train, Liu Pleiades looked at the surrounding layout curiously, and when Lin Xiaoxin went to the bathroom, he asked Fang Ze in a low voice, "Is this the carriage in your world, what kind of animals can be used to pull such a big car." โ
"It's not pulled by an animal, it's a mechanical device called an engine. Fang Ze simply explained to Liu Yuexing.
"If you use this kind of thing to pull goods, you can definitely keep the ingredients fresh and not easy to rot. โ
"In fact, when we ship some ingredients with a lot of shelf life, such as seafood, we have a faster way to transport them. โ
"This is the perfect place for chefs. Liu Pleiades sighed.
Just as Fang Ze and Liu Pleiades were chatting, a person suddenly walked in front of the two of them and said in broken Chinese, "Hello, excuse me." โ
Fang Ze looked up and found that it was an Asian who didn't look very much like a Huaxia person. And from the politeness on his body, Fang Ze guessed that he was either a South Korean or a neon man.
"What's wrong. Fang Ze looked at this person and asked.
"Do you remember me? The man bowed down and said to Fang Ze, "You came to my restaurant with your neon friends last time for dinner." โ
"Going to your store to eat with my neon friends?" Fang Ze raised his eyes and thought for a moment.
Neon friends' words, could it be that they are talking about gin?
Come to think of it.
Fang Ze pointed at this person and said, "You're the chef of that Japanese restaurant, right?" โ
"Yes, yes. The neon chef nodded and said to Fang Ze, "Does that friend of yours have time these days? I'm going to Lin'an to participate in the Xianghu Food Festival with my senior brother this time." If he can come, I will definitely let him eat authentic neon food. โ
"He seems to have been busy lately. Fang Ze thought to himself as he spoke. Gin is probably busy cutting Conan lately, not to mention authentic neon cuisine, even if he calls the top chef in the neon cuisine world, he doesn't have time to eat it. โ
"That's right. The neon chef paused, then continued, "But I'd like you to let me know, after all, I'm so sorry about what happened last time." โ
"Well, okay. Fang Ze wanted to quickly resolve this awkward conversation, so he nodded and agreed.
Seeing that Fang Ze agreed, the neon chef left with confidence.
"Is it a chef from Neon?" asked Liu Pleiades as he looked at the back of the departing Neon Chef.
"Yes, but I'm not very interested in Japanese food. Fang Ze said, "The main thing is that there is no way to accept sashimi, and the others are fine." โ
"I once tasted neon sashimi. "Although the Neon chef has worked hard, just using wasabi is really not the best way to eat sashimi." โ
"Uh, isn't wasabi the best match for sashimi and neon chefs to top sashimi with wasabi?"
"Not really. "Neon chefs put mustard on top of sashimi because neon local condiments are so scarce." They don't have pepper or cloves, and the sansho is far away in Hokkaido, so they don't have a variety of seasoning techniques. โ
Liu Pleiades looked at Fang Ze and popularized science, "Generally speaking, if a certain ingredient needs to be eaten raw, then the purpose is to retain the original taste. The best way to preserve the original flavor is actually to add salt. โ
"And the wasabi in Japanese cuisine is actually not the same thing as the wasabi we usually know. The mustard we know as early as the Zhou Dynasty became a seasoning used by chefs. The manufacturing method is to grind the seeds of mustard into a powder, so that it becomes wasabi. โ
"But the color of the wasabi made by this is yellow, and the wasabi used in Japanese cuisine is not the same color. Strictly speaking, the wasabi used in Japanese cuisine is not really wasabi, but it comes from a plant called 'wasabi'. Wasabi and mustard greens taste similar, and it is impossible to tell the difference between wasabi and mustard greens unless you are a professional chef or someone who eats these two vegetables regularly. โ
"So the wasabi used in Japanese cuisine is actually wasabi, which grows in clear water and can only be used as a seasoning for at least three years. Even the neon in our world is quite cheap. That's why neon chefs use such an expensive and taste-stimulating seasoning. โ
When Liu Pleiades said this, Fang Ze remembered that he used to watch the news, and it was said that some cutting-edge Japanese chefs in Neon began to use yuzu sauce instead of mustard as a condiment for sashimi in high-end Japanese cuisine. As a result, some traditional Japanese chefs with the so-called 'craftsman spirit' have been criticized as deviant.
"Then Xiaoxing, what kind of condiment do you think is better to put in sashimi? Fang Ze asked.
"I haven't done any research on sashimi, so I don't dare to talk nonsense. However, if you want to try different kinds of sashimi, I recommend you try Korean sashimi, or there are some places in Nanyang that have good sashimi chefs. โ
"But then again. Liu Pleiades scratched the back of his head and said, "The real meaning of food is actually to eat how you like, like sashimi, in the case of enough seasoning, you can match what you like, don't stick to tradition." โ
"That's right. Fang Ze nodded, indicating understanding.
It turns out that sashimi with wasabi in Japanese cuisine is just neon people, and they didn't have to eat it in ancient times, so they can only eat it like this.
Thanks to my great wealth of China, I can let foodies have enough spices for free matching.
As soon as the two finished speaking, Lin Xiaoxin walked back and sat down. "What are you two talking about? โ
"We were talking about food and exchanging experiences in cooking. Fang Ze replied.
"I believe you when you talk about food, just exchange experiences. Lin Xiaoxin looked at Fang Ze and said, "In addition to cooking instant noodles, what else can you do." โ
"I want to think about it. Fang Ze began to count on his fingers, "Braised liver with fresh salad in sauce, stir-fried lung slices, Vidal sauce with French foie gras, chicken liver sauce mixed with peppercorns and wine jellyใใใใใใ โ
"Stop, stop, stop. Lin Xiaoxin directly interrupted Fang Ze and said, "Let's not talk about the names of your strange dishes." The point is, you, who can even fry fried rice with scrambled eggs, are sure that you really know these dishes. โ
"Actually. Fang Ze put his hand on Lin Xiaoxin's shoulder and said, "I am a top Western chef who is proficient in the seventeen Chinese languages. โ
"Hahaha. Lin Xiaoxin raised her head and laughed three times, then looked at Fang Ze and said, "The joke you told is so funny, I'm almost dying of laughter." โ
"No one believes the truth these days. Fang Ze held his forehead and grieved.
"As the saying goes, dog owners don't know what kind of temper dogs have, I've known you for so many years, I know how many times you wet the bed when you were a child, and I don't know if you can cook and speak a few languages. โ
"Don't say it's seventeen Chinese languages, you have dialects plus your half-hung English, it's good to have three." โ
Although there is an old saying that the so-called rough words are not rough. Fang Ze looked at Lin Xiaoxin and said, "But isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to use the metaphor of 'those who raise dogs don't know what kind of temper dogs have'." โ
"That's a metaphor. Lin Xiaoxin said, "With the sentence 'a handful of and a handful of urine to feed you so hard, I don't know how capable you are'?"
"I didn't grow up eating and drinking urine, thank you. โ
The two bickered all the way and introduced all kinds of knowledge of modern society to Liu Yuexing, and soon arrived at the high-speed rail station in Lin'an.
"It's a bit of a crowd today. After getting off the train, Lin Xiaoxin looked at the crowd of people in the high-speed rail station and said.
"I guess they're all here to attend the food festival. Fang Ze took out his mobile phone and tried to call a car, "I'll see if I can get to Didi, otherwise we can only take the subway." โ
"I guess so. Lin Xiaoxin said with a weak heart, but five minutes later, several people were completely desperate in the face of Didi, who still had no one to take the order.
"Is there so many people today!" Fang Ze had to start using his mobile phone to check the subway route, fortunately, the subway terminal in Lin'an is Xianghu Station, which is still very convenient, and there is no need to transfer.
Although it is to be expected that the subway will be crowded like a dog, there is no way around it.
Just as Fang Ze was checking the map, a voice suddenly shouted happily, "Fang Ze!"
